FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTION:
"Is that really you (Corey Vidal) singing?"
No. Sorry to disappoint everyone, but all 4 voices belong to the talented guys from Moosebutter. I had their permission (and their help) in the making of this video, but none of us expected it to get very many views. You can learn a lot more about the making of the video here:

LYRICS:
[Close Encounters of the Droid Kind]
You must use the Force
You must use the Force
(repeat ad nauseam)
You must use the Force
[Raiders of the Lost Wookiee]
Time ago, far, far away
Long time ago, far, far away
Kiss a Wookiee, kick a droid!
Fly the Falcon through an asteroid!
Till the princess is annoyed!
This is spaceships,
It's monsters,
It's Star Wars,
We love it!
Come and help me,
Obi-Wan
X-wing fighter
And a blaster gun!
Dance with Ewoks,
Oh, what fun!
This is spaceships,
It's monsters,
It's Star Wars,
We love it!
[Super Han]
Get in there you big, furry oaf
I couldn't care less what you smell!
I take orders from only me
Maybe you'd like it back in your cell
Your Highness, your worshipfulness,
Your Highness, your worshipfulness!
No one cares if you upset a droid
(Nobody cares if you upset a droid)
That's because droids don't tear
your arms out of sockets
(Nobody cares)
I suggest a new strategy:
Let the Wookiee win
That's because nobody cares if you upset a droid
[E.T. - The DiscoTerrestrial]
Now we listen to Luke whining:
One more season... one more season...
One more season... one more season...
I was gonna go to Tosche
Station for power converters
Now I guess I'm going nowhere
It just isn't fair...
[Jaws: The Wookiee]
Woooooookiee
Woooooookiee
Woooooookiee
Woooooookiee
Woooooookiee
Woooooookiee
Someone move this walking carpet
(Woo-kiee! Woo-kiee!)
Someone move this walking carpet
(Woo-kiee! Woo-kiee!)
Kiss your brother, kiss your brother
Princess Leia!
Well, I guess
You don't know anything
About women
Who's your daddy? Who's your daddy?
Who's your daddy? Who's your daddy?
[Jurassic Darth]
Luke, I'm your father
(That's not true!)
It is useless to resist
(My hand!)
Come with me, my son
We will rule!
(I'll never join you!)
Search your feelings, it is true
So, you have a twin sister who
Obi-Wan was wise to hide
(Is that Leia?)
If you will not turn
Then perhaps she will
Give in to your hate,
You are mine
[Close Encounters of the Droid Kind - Reprise]
(Long, long, long time ago...)
Far, far, far, far away
Long, long, long time ago,
Far, far, far away!
Kiss a Wookiee, (kiss a Wookiee)
Kick a droid! (kick a droid!)
Fly the Falcon (fly the Falcon)
Through an asteroid!
Till the princess (till the princess)
is annoyed!
(She's annoyed!)
This is spaceships,
It's monsters,
It's Star Wars,
We love it, it's true!
Episode III
Coming to you
2005
So let's go
(Go, go, go to the movies)
Stand in line
(Buy, buy, buy me some popcorn)
Cause it's al-
(Please, I'd like extra butter)
-most the time!
(JOIN THE DARK SIDE)
May the Force be with you all!
JOHN WILLIAMS IS THE MAN! 
Видеоклипы
2024 and John Williams is still the man. The oldest ever to be nominated for an oscar beating the record set by himself.
Always and forever
I literally can't listen to any of these songs without internally hearing these lyrics. It has been over 11 years!
Neither can I 😄
Everytime I hear the star wars or Indiana Jones theme, I'm always singing these lyrics. People look at me like my brain just broke 😜
Just finished watching Jurassic park... And I had to watch this video...this is sick!
Same, especially the superman one 😂
Dude I’ve been doing the same thing sense elementary school, now I’m starting my third year in college. It’s way to catchy
Same here, it's like the wires in my brain get crossed because I'll be thinking "I KNOW this isn't Star Wars music", but in my mind it still is.
January 2020: yup, still the man !
My man I just thought of this video had to watch it again
March 2020: Yep, still the man
And finally got a cameo in a movie
April, 2020: "The Man", he remains!
May 2020: The man, he still is
February 2022: the world is chaos, but John Williams is still the man.
May 4th 2022, cannot agree enough
June 10 2022, still correct
Always and forever
June 29th 2022. Still holds up.
@@ExplosiveYoda your response made me look at what we are talking about, and it still stands as you stated.
January 2021: still holds up. Still one of the classic RUclips memes of all time.
It got stuck in my head randomly yesterday. Now I can't stop listening to it.
I cant hear the ET theme without hearing Luke complaining about power converters
@@treestumpisland5586 that’s… why I’m here
I come back at least once a year and watch again, good stuff
I still think the guys in Moosebutter should have been way more credited in the video so people actually will know that this moron is just lipsyncing and not singing at all.
It is not enough just to credit them in the description, so many people don't bother reading it and think it is Corey that has made this all by himself. Annoying.
I've had this stuck in my head for the last 12 years.
Yeah same. Honestly, came here to try and get it out 😂
Same. I honestly think I'll be humming this for my entire life
Kiss the wookieeeeee...
Same ! 😅
14 now
14 years ago I got this stuck in my head and it hasn't left.
Reporting from the distant future of 2020. The world is collapsing, chaos is everywhere, California is still burning. John Williams is still the man.
Lol nice job
oh, boy, you would'nt like 2022!
Haha, we were so innocent back in 2020. GLORY TO UKRAINE
Damn man you wish you saw what gas prices were like in 2 years
@@imperium5631 Luckily for us, John Williams is still The Man.
John Williams is STILL the man in 2019
bruv yes
Very true I remember when this came out
Man it was big and this still a big thing
you right you right
Long live John Williams!
May 4th 2022, cannot agree enough
January 2024: I still have this song entirely memorized. Such a good medley
It’s May 2022 and I still occasionally find myself singing parts of this song, especially if I’ve recently watched Raiders of the Lost Ark.
Has this song really been stuck in my head for 11 years?
Yes it stayed stuck. I grew up with this song.
Yesterday I was at comiccon and the Geekapella concert did this song! I sang along and everyone was staring at me like "how do you know this song"
+Zucchini Zoe haha
+ZoLexa haha! great story!
I know how that is
+Ashtyn Kolkman that shouldn't be embarrassing! He most likely didn't care
+Ashtyn Kolkman He'd be a fool not to : )
December 2015. John Williams is still the man.
John Williams will always be the man.
Always.
+Jonathan Hughes indeed! (although i must say the new movie themes don't rock too much ;)
+Jonathan Hughes sadly John Williams didnt approve Star wars Force awakens, but all round HE IS AWESOME
yep!
8 years I first watched this and it still never gets old
ikr
Ikr
i agre
rapahel ramos
Dr Smith is one of the band directors at DSU and did the all county band. Him and his friends were moosebutter and wrote this song in college. It was so cool to meet him
Jonah Larsen ooooo nice
Wait this is 10 years old?? AM I THAT F-ING OLD????
ELEVEN NOW!!!!!
11
Crazy.
The reupload is 11... the original is 15 now...
I kown right? That's what I just realized today as well.
Duck me
Still one of the best videos on RUclips
Geiler Nickname echt mal musste gesagt werden xD
DaemonwarriorJulius watch?v=ZfmwIJeWzTU
haha
Yes it Is my Bro (better than bad bunny)
Bryndís Víkingsson and i discovery it now hauahauahahaga
Today John Williams turns 90. And this one, in my opinion, is still the best video ever uploaded on RUclips.
I'll forever be in debt to my best friend from high school sending me this video back in 2008. It has never left me.
February 2024: Holy shit it's been 15 years!? And this is STILL the best thing on the Internet.
I remember memorizing this entire thing in the fourth grade... I'm a high school senior now this is crazy
+stvnhater IT'S EXACTLY THE SAME WITH ME. i havent seen this video in years ahhh wow this is such a blast to the past
Omg sameeee😂😂😂👌🏼
My history teacher showed the class this video in the near the end of the year in 9th grade. It was so cool
+stvnhater
this is my number, so call me maybe!
I'm in 4th grade right now and my music teacher showed me this. Pretty cool.
January 1, 2021: Man where did the years go.... Listened to this and still made me incredibly happy
Same here! 😁
May 4th 2022, cannot agree enough
I come back here every time a new Star Wars comes out. You'll see me back here in December!
The Last Jedi is looking pretty great so far. See you guys when it comes out!
September 2019, john Williams is still the man
I love how Corey is STILL trying to make it perfectly clear that he's only lip-syncing.
He's not lip sinking
Alex Lowenstein Yeah, actually he is. The song was performed by Moosebutter, Corey lip-synced to make this video, and the rest is history.
In fact, Corey has talked about the whole story in other videos.
giggi4455 No, it's not like you might think. Corey asked permission. Moosebutter was okay with the video (they even helped Corey learn the parts so he could lip-sync them). Corey *did* have some legal troubles after the video came out initially (mostly with Moosebutter's record label), but that was sorted out over the course of a few months after the video went live. The whole thing is explained across several different videos on both the ApprenticeA (main) and ApprenticeEh (vlog) channels.
Basically, this is all old news.
PS: Yes, he *did* give credit. Several times.
giggi4455 I disagree. If anything, Moosebutter would have gotten more business from this video. It's basically free advertising. And that's reinforced by Corey constantly saying stuff like "I didn't make this music; Moosebutter did. This is just me being a Star Wars fan."
Now, is it bad to take credit for someone else's work? Yes. But if the original creator gives permission to do a video like this and it goes viral like this one did, there *will* be people who seek out the original creator's work. That means more exposure and more sales.
RUclips may have paid Corey for advertising on the video, but in no way is that any less money for Moosebutter. Don't think about it like "stealing business." Think about it like "free advertising."
Fan enthusiasm is probably the *best* form of viral marketing out there.
Read: mneayh mneayh mnyeah mnyeah mnyeah mnyeah mnyeah mneayh.
Whenever I hear any of these songs now, all I can think of is this video.
I watched Jaws and I couldn't stop thinking about this XD
12 years have passed... But every now and then I still like to come here and enjoy this masterpiece! Corey Vidal is the man! :-D
He's lip-synching. The actual vocals and music are being played by a group called Moosebutter.
From the bottom of my heart, thank you for bringing this into the world.
The songs in order are (I think)
1: close encounters of the first kind
2: Indiana Jones
3: Superman
4: ET: The Extraterrestrial
5: Jaws
6: Jurassic Park
7: Indiana Jones (revise)
sollux captor *third kind
May 2021, sanity is slowly returning to the land. I can only believe this is the work of one man...John Williams.
Here on Star Wars Day 2016 still doesn't get old :)
+short nerdy May the 4th be with you buddy
Ferb Game and you Ferb :)
+Ferb Game m
People are being nice on the internet? That's weird
I know it's strange MrRockIsAwesome
Here on Star Wars Day 2022. Thank you for this excellent tribute to a great franchise!
The fact that this song has been in my head for 13 years......wooooof
14 years later, and every time I catch a snippet of the Indiana Jones theme on tv somewhere, I immediately have "Kiss a wookie, kick a droid" stuck in my head for the rest of the day.
2022 and it still gives me the chills. Since 2009 when I discovered the wonders of Star Wars. Thank You Corey.
No matter how many times I watch this video, it just gets better and better! I love it! One of my favorite RUclips videos EVER! Thanks, Corey....and Moosebutter......AND John "Is The Man" Williams! :-)
Same here, 8 years watching this time and again
It's amazing how long ago this video came out and I still remember all the lyrics.
Cannot get this out of my head, must to continually watch it!
where is the super like button?
I really love it 2
Coming back around full circle to watch this years and years later, one of the earliest videos I ever watched on RUclips haha John Williams is STILL the Man!
Just told a group of folks about this today. They had not seen it. This never gets old and makes me smile every time
August 2019 and John Williams is still the man
Seeing this after so much time, just because the second trailer of Episode VII :D
Oh, the memories!
Remember those days when Star Wars was six movies and no more? Seems horrifying looking back, not being excited about new Star Wars movies
I was here during the 100k views still after all these years, he amazes me how much work he had with this, to be comical and musical at the same time, its a masterpiece!
Man after all these years, watching this video is still a pure joy, love it
Released in 2008:
RUclips 2020: yes let’s recommend this now
can't believe Im still alive to re-watch this in 2020.... time does fly, PETER.
Its been almost 10 years and I still come back to this video because I love it so much. Great job!
Thankyou for introducing my son into the world of john Williams. He loves the movies but never appreciated how amazing he was until you did this. You are awesome.
The irony being that the theme you left out was Star Wars. Still this was amazing.
Thank you, Captain Obvious.
You're welcome Lieutenant Over Reactor :)
Just curious... how was that over reacting?
They didn't put a SW theme because the lyrics are only about it.
Fin Egan It wasn't over reacting, and you should at least be Admiral Over Reactor :)
July 27th 2021, currently crying of nostalgia from the first time my cousin showed me this, i believe back in 2009... I remember every single word and wookie noise, I can't wait to hang out with my cousin again soon, so we can relive this together!
I’m so happy I could find this video again after almost 15 years. This was probably the first video I watched on RUclips as a child. Thank you for the wonderful memories :)
I still love this by you. Years later after I first found it, I still love it every single time I watch it.
15 years and this still slaps!!!
I remember when this become big wow how time has moved this is still a popular to this day
I wonder if he’s ever seen this…an absolutely brilliant tribute to the timeless works of an absolute legend. ❤️
This has been my favorite song since I was 10….. true piece of art. This will never get old.
I just randomly thought about this song, and came to listen to it. He’s still the man.
You must use the force
Quase 10 anos de vídeo e eu ainda amo!!!
I have been watching this for at least 5 years, now I know every word. Happy Star Wars Day!!!!
Coming to you from April 2022. What a trip back in time! I don't know what made me think of this song/video today but I'm so glad I re-watched. Still so good!!
Happy Star Wars Day!!!
John Williams, God of music.
This song has been stuck in my head for 15 years and it still slaps 🙌
Here I am again! STILL watching this wonderful video! It continues to make me smile and giggle a whole lot! STILL MY FAVORITE RUclips VIDEO! Corey, I hope you are still making people laugh and smile! Keep on lip syncing! 😊🤩🥰
Saw this when I was 12. Damn.....bruh this is still stuck in my head 13 years later.
same lol
I just got back to this video, From over 6 years ago. Damn you, when I saw it for the first time I was just starting to use RUclips. nostalgia...
well, now it is 15 years... I feel old now...
But this still is fun. :D
Stumbled over this gem a few years ago, and I still enjoy watching it!
Many years ago and i still love it! Absolut cool! Thank you!
May 2019- John williams is the man and we finally got episode 7 and then some stuff that we shouldn’t talk about (solo was dope)
Solo? As in the movie Solo? Or the character Solo? Cause the only thing remotely dope about the movie might've been what the screenwriters were smoking when making the script.
The fact that after all these years I still know this by heart ❤️ #thatnostalgiatho
Happy New Years to all. So happy to revisit this video. I think I was 10 years old when my close friend showed this to me. 10 years we still send this video to one another.
absolutely timeless classic 15 years running, know the whole thing by heart since I was 10!!!
So! Are we going to get a new version of this for the new movie? please say yes!
+hockeynut4ever11 i hope so xD
Pleeeeeeease *^* that would be awesome
+hockeynut4ever11 new movie sucks.
Ask Moosebutter not Corey...
+Sanja Maksimovic it really doesn't
2022 this was the first youtube video I ever watched. Came back and still sick!
After all these years I come back to this and it's still so amazing.
I have to say after all these years i now this video I still love it and show it to people that havent seen it. Great vidoe love it
comeing from May 4th, 2024; STILL HERE AND STILL THE BEST MAY THE 4TH SONG 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥
2k19 and he still is the man
I used to watch this so much at the dawn of youtube. Thought this was the greatest thing ever. Still is.
This song has been stuck in my head for 14 years. Incredible
After 13 years i'm still singing these lyrics :D
I remember when i first saw this when it first came out.... I was six. brings back memories :)
I remember when I was in like 1st Grade watching this video! I was, and still am a huge Star Wars fan! This video is so awesome!
Discovered this many years ago, still come back to it every now and then :)
Pleaase re upload this mentioning waiting in line in 2015
one of the first youtube videos i saw.. i sometimes come back to see where i started
I haven't watched this video in YEARS and yet it still holds up!
The nostalgia hit me all at once. My first marching band show was based off of John Williams compositions, not too long after this came out. Still awesome!
Here to remind myself just what a legend John Williams is, in lieu of him being hospitalized earlier today.
Get well soon, my man. :(
my favourite part is the jurassic park theme. greetings from Germany ;)
RooMoritz PS: I'm a fat, black, gay Nazi.
I was about to say "Erste Klasse" but then I saw your reply bruh moment
I still remember when I first saw this. It still kicks assss!!!! I LIVE THIS
Almost 12 years old and it’s still one of the best videos I’ve ever seen.
I cannot believe this was 11 years ago.
Omg the nostalgia.
I love revisiting this video for the last yrs and yrs.
I have been watching this since 2009..-
I., humbly, beg @Corey Vidal s forgivness...
This is awesome!!!!!
Just a remainder, this guy waited to be viral before adding in the description that it wasn't him singing acapella.
Just a reminder, he got permission from the guys who recorded it *before* he posted it, according to them at least
Jace Fairis
Just a remainder, HE DIDN'T TELL THE AUDIENCE ABOUT IT UNTIL HE GOT VIRAL.
It's not a matter of copyright (Which I was aware of anyway).
And, GuitarWolesale,
What have you published of note?
*****
1.-What does that have to do with what that guy did?
2.-If I was a super viral youtube, what's the relevance anyway?
just a reminder: it is spelled reminder not REMAINDER
After seen episode IX, John Williams is still the man
Especially with his cameo
His score for that movie appears to be a celebration of his past scores. Not just for Star Wars, but for other movies like Indiana Jones, Jaws, Jurassic Park, and Harry Potter.
Thank you for being a big part of my childhood. This song was the bomb.
This year makes ten years since this videos creation y’all... and it’s still just as awesome :)
