    Hmmm. Standards of Coolness are not what they used to be. Maybe you’re using metric units of coolness and forgot the conversion factor. I mean, I’m like, a hyperdork and I’m still cooler than this guy.

    His shirts are OK, though.

  2. Solo4357 says:

    That. Was. AWESOME!

  3. Scooter says:

    I’m Scooter Brown and I approve this message

  4. Kent says:

    Wow. I’m less stunned with the talent and more stunned with the vocal range. Holy crap.

    That was seriously awesome. Agreed.

  5. Two Dogs says:

    Feh, mediocre.

  6. innominatus says:

    If you appreciate this guy, you may also want to consider Zack. I can’t remember where I first heard of him – might have been right here on IMAO.

  7. Michael R. says:

    What is with the ads on the video?

    [I assume it's some new way YouTube is trying to make revenue. -Ed.]

  8. Stimpy says:

    It’s actually an a cappella comedy vocal group called Moosebutter. (www.moosebutter.com, of course)
    He did it with their permission. Check out their other stuff…pretty good!

  9. Shev says:

    He’s cool, all right, but not nearly as cool as the a cappella band who actually sings the song, Moosebutter. They’re coolx4.

  10. Tyson says:

    What he did was much harder that singing in an a capella group. He had no point of reference, he couldn’t tune himself off the three other parts; he recorded himself, alone, 4 times, with no people to lean on musically (except maybe some kind of silent metronome and a starting note). That is really hard (I tried it myself with a simpler four-part song, it just wouldn’t align perfectly).
    Further, he has an incredible voice range and an excellent wookie imitation. Corey Vidal=Musical Badass.

  11. THE BOMB!!! says:

    I am officially in awe. And usually I try to be cool and aloof and not impressed by anything at all.

  12. Kent says:

    OK, I admit I’ve never heard of Moosebutter. I’m embarrassed to admit that given I’m friends with The Great LukeSki…

    … and know entirely too much about this stuff. I guess this is what happens when you miss the sci fi conventions for a few years.

  13. Chris says:

    Wow.

  14. I'm with Stuppid says:

    That is the single nerdiest thing I’ve ever seen, which is why I’ve already watch it 3 times.

  15. Dr. Mayhem says:

    Ok, so, reading about this, he is just lip syncing. I rescind my ‘awe’ and replace it with a favorable ‘meh.’

    This Guy Is the Coolest Guy Ever

    This Guy Is Pretty Cool

    This Guy Is Faking It Nicely

    This Guy Is Lame But The Music’s Good

  17. Mgbfred says:

    This is VERY close to the most disturbing thing I’ve witnessed to date!

  18. MarkoMancuso says:

    What the crap was that?

  19. Shinygoon says:

    Ummm…no dino rocket launchers. No righteous anger. No guns. Just one gayzor white boy singing acappella in a four way self circle jerk.
    Frank, lay off the kumbaya koolaid, or soon you will be posting NYC type Liza cross dressers doing show tunes.:P

  20. G Fresh says:

    It was Photo-shopped. You can tell by the pixels.

  21. Joel says:

    That would be the coolest thing ever if he was actually singing, but if you read the description he’s only lip-syncing. Not nearly as impressive, although still somewhat fun to watch.

  22. cincinnati_bob says:

    I love seeing headlines like “How Obama Can Fix the Economy”.

    Like – if the economy Could be fixed it would be fixed by now. What do these people think? Bush’s cabinet sitting around going ‘Eh.. We don’t want to fix it yet’.

    Not only are people working overtime in the US to fix it, people are working all over the world in countries whose economies are not totally supported by light sweet crude oil, trying to fix it.

    Worse yet, it’s some CNN commentator with a brain fart. “Oh, I know what to do!”.

    Drives me right outta my freakin mind.

    Worse yet, when “time” fixes it, the media will give the credit to the Obama.

    It’s just embarrassing and depressing to be living in the same country with so many stupid morons.

  23. snakesavage says:

    if frank could sing–thats how i would picture him!

  24. Kent says:

    Bob,

    I think by fix Obama means neuter.

  25. Terry_Jim says:

    I think that was the most talented thing
    that I’ve ever been only able to
    stand listening to half of.

  26. Clint says:

    Oh, come on! If any of the rest of you can even come CLOSE to this effort, please post your YouTube video here! It’s free for cryin’ out loud! Put up or shut up!

    Yeah, that rocked!

  27. midwestconservative says:

    QUADRUPLETS !!!!

  28. BadAndy says:

    Guy has a little too much time on his hands.

  29. ILoveMyFreedoms says:

    Four minutes of life frittered away. But I chuckled at the Wookie mock, and the kid did take my mind off the impending doom of the new administration.

  30. cincinnati_bob says:

    Kent, I’ll go with your analysis.

  31. Wow. « Chiefly Musing links:

    [...] Via IMAO. [...]

  32. Son of Bob says:

    This being the current point of reference, I have no desire to ever be considered “cool”.
