The main reason Jay does such a great Walken impression is because he already sounds like him when just talks. Listen to the dudes voice, you can already tell there's a Walken in there.
I noticed that too with a lot of good impersonations. Even the Denzel Washington guy, great impersonation of him, but the guy sounds a lot like Denzel just talking normal.
One-time Jay hosted the Jim Rome Show it was on that show he did Christopher Walken and I laughed so hard I had to actually pull off the road into a parking lot
There are a lot of really good Walkens out there. I saw Bradley Cooper do one that I thought was about as perfect as you can get it. I think there's some kind of class in acting school that teaches you a Christopher Walken impression, and you have to pass to get your acting degree.
He does the best impressions because he learned how to talk from watching TV because both his parents were Deaf. So basically he almost totally mimics how the person really sounds.
ok you convinced me, I hadn't heard it, so I checked it out and I had to revise the list. top 3 Walken impressions(in no order): Geoffrey Arend, Ian Mcfadyen, and now Craig Gass. sorry Jay Mohr, you've fallen to 4th place. but yer still pretty much the original. Kevin Pollak ain't got shit on any of em.
Don't forget about Kevin Pollock he does a damn good impression of Christopher Walken Jack Nicholson and Peter Falk as columbo checking them all out he's pretty damn good
Even Walken himself doesn't do Walken this good. After listening to Jay, I can do Walken (nowhere near as good) for a few minutes. It's like learning a foreign language. You gotta work at it every day.
I've been trying to learn how to do Christopher Walken for a few days now, and struggling hard, and now this pops up, and Jay here is really good, and I'll tell you why. Because it is very basic. The other video's feature guys so good, that there too good to learn from. Jay's here is a very entry level impersonation and it has made me realize that I have been trying to hard. I need to dial it back, and for the first time, I'm sounding a little bit like Chris. PS. Kevin Pollacks Christopher Walken is actually not very good at all. He does amazing impersonations, but Walken is not one of them. Jay's here is even way better. IMO
I saw some footage in a Walken documentary where Mohr breaks down how he does the impression, it was brilliant He said Chris has no cadence and he was trying to get him to co-host a sketch on SNL where they'd be psychic investigators
The secret of a good Christopher Walken impression is in the pause. Don't fear it. Embrace the complete awkwardness of it.
Well noted. The whispers are the added seasoning
The pauses are like the silence within a musical composition, it brings something more to the notes
Forget the impression he just destroyed the poor bloke next to him. That was gold.

He sounds more like Bill Murray when he talks. Craig Gass does the best Walken.
So true, it's like the timing is more important than the voice
That is so amazing- it's almost spooky; close your eyes & you'd swear it's really Christopher....... Bravo, Jay!
I could watch walken impressions on a loop...Mohr is great...pollack... spacey...wow...
Jay Mohr is the best impressionist period. He’s the only guy who can channel his hosts essence and create new and believable material as that person.
No hes not. Brock Baker does this just as good and so dose Kevin polak and a lot of other people.
Craig Gass is WAY BETTER! ruclips.net/video/5F1zxw0BTvI/видео.html
Kevin Polak is better than Jay!
Hell nooo you tripping man Craig Gass makes Jay Mohr look like an amateur
Craig Gass is a great impressionist and better than this..Does a lot of good impressions
Craig Gass's Walken impression is WAY better...no wonder Jay was scared of it.
I'm not familiar with Craig Gass' Walken impression, but if it's as good or better than Mohrs', I'm willing to check it out.
@@waynej2608 Go ahead. Jay's is better, much better...the best.
Wrong. Mohr is best at that one.
Graig gass does the best impression him
Jay by far is the best.
7 years later and Walken sounds more like Walken then ever !!
One-time Jay hosted the Jim Rome Show it was on that show he did Christopher Walken and I laughed so hard I had to actually pull off the road into a parking lot
The more I listen to Christopher Walken the more he sounds like Jay Mohr.
that is just spooky; he's awesome at that Walken impression...... AMAZING!!
+Kristin Schermann Look up Craig Gass's impersonation of Walken, it's much better than Mohr's.
Craig Gass has the best impression ever of Walken. No wonder Mohr hates him lol
This is the radio station I'm tuning in to from now on... and I'm in Minnesota.
Yeah Jay Mohr's Walken is the best.
There are a lot of really good Walkens out there. I saw Bradley Cooper do one that I thought was about as perfect as you can get it. I think there's some kind of class in acting school that teaches you a Christopher Walken impression, and you have to pass to get your acting degree.
Jay now says Pollack's is better
Craig Gass does the BEST Walken
He does the best impressions because he learned how to talk from watching TV because both his parents were Deaf. So basically he almost totally mimics how the person really sounds.
ok you convinced me, I hadn't heard it, so I checked it out and I had to revise the list. top 3 Walken impressions(in no order): Geoffrey Arend, Ian Mcfadyen, and now Craig Gass. sorry Jay Mohr, you've fallen to 4th place. but yer still pretty much the original. Kevin Pollak ain't got shit on any of em.
***** Sorry what about Jason Stephens ?
Piwi The Kiwi , but
Craig Cass kills ANY of the other impressionists...
Hell I think Craig Cass does a better impression of Walken then Christopher Walken.
search Christopher Walken plays Skyrim -- there is a new impersonator who is scary good
Best CW impression's a tie between Titus Welliver and Kevin Pollack. The rest are second tier.
Jay Mohr keeps it real...BAD BRAINS fan....punk and reggae baby!!!
He was great in his old SNL skits.
Mohr’s is the best by far.
Best one yet!
He was stating a fact. I've seen interviews where Pollock acknowledges this fact.
Jay Mohr has the absolute best Tracy Morgan impression on the planet!!!
Jay Mohr and Kevin Spacey do the best Christopher Walken impersonations. Love it!
Spaceys is rubbish
Kevin Pollack does a good one
Not spacey anymore 😬😬
He's the best, no doubt about it.
His Walken impression was so raw on SNL, now it's more than perfect.
Bad Brains. Awesome!
Didn't even notice when he started the impression. Just sounds like him
Pollock's is waaaaaay better.
A: The Walken impression was first rate and so funny
B: Isn't it funny to see St. Louis people talking about Albert staying in hindsight?
Don't forget about Kevin Pollock he does a damn good impression of Christopher Walken Jack Nicholson and Peter Falk as columbo checking them all out he's pretty damn good
He even moves one eye likes Colombo.
Pollock's is good but Mohr is on another level
He's the best impersonator
I like this host
That guy has a beautiful radio voice [Deep Voice]
WHHOOA, it's JAY MOORE, don't anybody do a Walken impression, cuz that's his THING MAAAN!!!!
He played Christopher walken in the Simpsons lol
I swear to god, if uni leaves some time this year, I'll sample Walken's voice and hack it into a GPS/Nav system for cars.
Silicon valley, here I come!
Damn, you win. Best C Walken
now i'm reading everything in christopher walken voice.
They didn't pay Pujols. Hahah.
I didn't know that Jay More was a Bad Brains fan!
Jay did the impression of him on the simpsons, playing christopher walken, case closed people!
I think Jay was thinking of Kevin SPACEY with his reference, and not Pollak, because the explanation he gives is EXACTLY how Spacey's impression goes.
No thoughts, only sorrow.
Where ever there is a vid of an impression....you will find a critic who loves someone else. lol
props for the Bad Brains shirt
I just really feel like having some Olive Garden right now.
Back in the day when Pujols was worth every penny 😂😂😂
Scary good Walken impression.
really good impression..
A dangling participial!! Wonder how it is going in an out of the impression
The Cardinals are happy they got rid of Pujols now...I'm a fan of his, but they dodged a bullet.
spoken like a true yes man.
Even Walken himself doesn't do Walken this good. After listening to Jay, I can do Walken (nowhere near as good) for a few minutes. It's like learning a foreign language. You gotta work at it every day.
Jay still owes me subway fare from 1991. With interest, if you're reading this Jay !!!
ESPN in Los Angeles is am 710. Its a bit weird when you see a station you knowof, in another market with a different frequency.
I've yet to see anyone top Titus Welliver's impersonation.
Jay Mohr is wearing a Bad Brains shirt!
Jeff Davis does the best impersonation, hands down.
I love that he has a bad brains shirt on...
*Walken voice* "It's a dangling participle". I died. X]
Jay does a solid Walken, but his Rick Shapiro is *_RUTHLESS._*
OMG this is great
Jay does way more than Walken. All are spot on. And Pollack has said Jay's is the best. His Tracy Morgan is perfect.
The host's voice is beautiful
Have to listen to Dave Grohl talk about Walken introducing "Foo Fightahs" with the accent on Fightahs....hilarious immitation.
@MrBRUCELEE98 it's good but you gotta see Jim Breuers impersonation of Tracy Morgan, absolutely spot on!
Titus Welliver's Walken impersonation is WAY better.
the best, jay rules
bad brains t-shirt, respect.
Jay Mohr is fool. My laughing cant keep up with his jokes
Jay is hilarious!
What I saw was a guy on the radio DESTROYING.
I still think Craig Gass does the best Walken, and Pacino and Kinison for that matter
Bradley Cooper's is the best Christopher Walken impersonation.
No one does Christopher Walken quite like Jay Mohr
Nice shirt jay 💪🏻
Jay Mohr is the shit! His walken impression destroys all.
it starts at 2:00
No one & I mean absolutely NO ONE does Walken better than Craig Gass.
I don’t agree that Craig Gass’s Impression is better.. however, Craig’s Pacino is absolutely perfect 👌
I've heard him on the radio. He is good. I'd rank right at the top with Mohr.
50 seconds into the video and I realize he sounds like Bruce Willis
I've been trying to learn how to do Christopher Walken for a few days now, and struggling hard, and now this pops up, and Jay here is really good, and I'll tell you why. Because it is very basic.

I saw some footage in a Walken documentary where Mohr breaks down how he does the impression, it was brilliant
He said Chris has no cadence and he was trying to get him to co-host a sketch on SNL where they'd be psychic investigators
Every word, even “no” is 2 syllables.
Could they have been more wrong about Pujols
Their Talkin Pujols 10 years ago and here we are 10 years later released from the ANGELS....only to go to the DODGERS FOR CHRIST SAKE!!
At least he is still in the league. Brendan Ryan is retired for some reason.
No way dude! He is so right on about Pollack's impression.
Titus Welliver does the best Walken. Everyone else is just dabbling.
Bad Brains shirt !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! whooooooooooooooooooooo
Jay Mohr said he was supposed to meet with Bob Stelton.....the interviewer actually IS Bob Stelton. It was a joke
Its so great lol the algorithms in my head
So Jay is saying he exudes Walken with no rhyme or reason...
I agree.
Kevin Spacey is the best by far. Not just at Walken, at most other celebrities.
Thanks!
Kevin Pollak does a pretty good one as well
