Bill Murray can carry a tune all by himself, but the man who plans Baloo in Disney’s upcoming “The Jungle Book” brought a friend to duet on “Jimmy Kimmel Live.”

The young star of the upcoming live-action/CGI hybrid, Neel Sethi, was a little shy at first to sing “The Bare Necessities” on live, national television — but he soon came around and even got into it.

Watch the video above and the film’s first full trailer below.
