Jimmy Somerville joins Bronski Beat busker for impromptu street duet

The lead singer just happened to be walking by with his dog…

WHAT ARE THE chances?

A busker in Berlin was casually singing Smalltown Boy by Bronski Beat when a passer-by joined him in song.

But wait, the stranger happened to be none other than Jimmy Sommerville, the original singer of the 1984 hit.

Talk about pressure on.
