Best Original YouTube Music Videos
Here are a couple of our favorite original YouTube videos that I thought you'd enjoy!
When I started this lens, I didn't quite realize that this was going to be more of a tribute to John Williams (who wrote the score for Star Wars, Jaws, Indiana Jones, etc.)!
This is a compilation of original videos on YouTube that we enjoy - hope you enjoy them too.
Disclaimer....sort of
Wow, I didn't realize what a super-nerd I was until I created this lens! Okay, that's not totally true. I guess I knew I was somewhat nerdy. =)
Most of these videos are ones that my husband started playing for my 4-year-old. The "John Williams is the Man" tribute has recently replaced the Superman song in being our family's theme song. And by that, I mean that one (or all) of us will seem to wake up with the song in our head, and infect everyone else so that we end up all singing it on an endless loop!
With all of the videos, you're going to want to listen to the lyrics - especially if you're a fan of the movies that they portray.
The Mom Song - This is great!
I love the Mom Song. Make sure you follow along with the lyrics. 24 hours worth of nagging stuffed into 2 minutes and 55 seconds (and who doesn't love the William Tell Overture?). This gal does a great job singing it!
The Parent Rap - This is too funny!
Star Wars
This is a pretty funny rendition of the Star Wars theme song. Love the fake-looking wigs!
Jaws
Huuuuuman. Huuuuuman. Pretty hilarious. If you've got little ones around, you may want to preview this one first - it's got some icky parts.
Indiana Jones
"Why does it have to be snakes?" Some of the scenes are a little corny, but it's still pretty well done. I love the Golden Mr. Potato Head!
Enter Kazoo Man
I love this guy's intensity! And yes, it is the same guy in all four sections.
Superman Theme Song
This is the first video that we had seen by this guy. This started out being our family's theme song (on and on in and endless loop. Where one of us dropped it, another one of us picked it up) until the Moosebutter song was introduced to us. The lyrics are catchy!
John Williams Is the Man - by Moosebutter
Even though I'm not a die-hard Star Wars fan like my husband, I really like what they did with this song. (And I'm a fan of a capella groups to begin with).
The lyrics are great, and my husband, my 4-year-old and I keep getting it stuck in one another's head for the WHOLE day.
Did these videos get you in the mood for any of these movies?
"John Williams Is the Man" Variations
This is a cute rendition done by a group of high school kids in corny costumes. Great for a laugh!
This is a photo montage variation that's neat to watch.
