As I’ve been binging Better Call Saul in anticipation of the finale, I had an odd idea. What if Bob Odenkirk did a brief run as Billy Flynn in Chicago? I feel like he could fit the character perfectly.

Just asked him (he lives 2 houses away from me here on the west coast) and he said he’d consider it if it were in L.A. but he ain’t doing no 3 months in NYC.

He'd be great with the book, but there's no indication that he can carry a tune, at all.

Here's an indication that he cannot:
Odenkirk sings 'Take Me Out to the Ballgame'

Horrid does not even begin to describe it.

Dumbasses, he’s a comic actor so he’s being ridiculous here. He CAN carry a tune. He may not be a “singer” but this isn’t how he sings. There are several videos on YouTube to prove this.

Really? Could you direct us to those? I certainly can't find them. But here are a few more that show his lack of ability:

He'd be fine in the part acting-wise, but no, he can't carry a tune.
