Merton freestyles with random strangers on Chat Roulette. He’s not Ben Folds although he’s obviously quite inspired by him (the “number 3″ bit sounds like Ben Fold’s now famous “rock this bitch” improvisations). Anyway, it’s funny and original.

UPDATE: Merton has reposted the video, with the description: “This is a new, edited version of the original Video #1. I had to make some changes in order for YouTube to be happy with it.” Apparently, he didn’t get approval to use the images of those he chatted with.

UPDATE AGAIN: Merton posted a second Chatroulette piano impro video.
