"Do you think that I could have composed what I have composed, do you think that one can write a single note with life in it if one sits there and pities oneself?"

Nietzsche (who was also a composer) - unidentified silent film actor



The actor is Ben Turpin, one the world's most famous cross-eyed (silent) film actors.
He had a habit of introducing himself with I'm Ben Turpin and I make $3000 a week.
(Nietzsche didn't.)

Yeah, you got me there. :-[
Italics not well chosen.
(It was meant to refer to the bloody money and to the bloody money alone.)

Oh, besides that: I like Ben Turpin.
If this means I'm not intelligent, so be it. Is it intelligent to 'discuss' composer-look-alikes on the internet?

(Nietzsche sold a lot of funny crap, too. Besides that: I like him. He loved horses. Although that might be just another funny story.)

Mitsuko Uchida-Sandra Oh; I mean, Sandra oh-Mitsuko Uchida; I mean... you figure it out

Wow! That's one of the best resemblances posted so far.

Maybe it's the wig?
Beethoven's Op. 133 -- A fugue so bad that even Beethoven himself called it "Grosse".

A post today sent me straight to google images.

American composer Peter Mennin and actor Peter Sellers:

Seeing a WAYL2N post today sent me straight to Google Images:

György Ligeti and Gary Busey. Too much of a stretch?

Good shots, VonStupp! The second guy looks like Boris Johnson as well.
Part of the tragedy of the Palestinians is that they have essentially no international support for a good reason: they've no wealth, they've no power, so they've no rights.

The second guy would be Gary Busey. :)

Perhaps better for the Boris Johnson thread, many comparison shots have been made between Johnson and Gary Busey. It must be the hair:
