moosebutter: a brief history
See Tim. See Tim sing. Sing, Tim! Sing!
Tim wants to sing with friends. See Tim audition.
See Weston. See Weston dance. Dance, Weston! Dance!
Tim likes to sing with Weston. Weston is funny.
See Chris and Glen. Chris sings high. Glen sings low.
See moosebutter sing. Sing, moosebutter! Sing!
(this brief history brought to you by Glen's four year-old)
*moosebutter: a more conventional bio*
moosebutter is a four-man comedy a cappella group. They have won awards from the Contemporary A Cappella Society(Best Comedy Song, 2004), The Harmony Sweepstakes (2003 International Finals runners-up), had their music included on compilation albums (Doctor Demento Basement Tapes 2005, Sing II 2005) and played live shows in front of audiences around the United States. Their tight harmony and eclectic humor have charmed audiences through two albums and countless live performances.
To handle all the performance requests they receive, moosebutter has several casts of performers. They perform with three, four, or five singers, depending on the show, and have done just about every kind of show you can imagine (Punk rock show? Check. National television? Check. Wedding reception? Check.).
Chris *
John Tesh's Worst Nightmare
Although over-zealous fans frequently mistake him for the 9th Beatle, Chris is actually the 10th. He graduated from Brigham Young University with a degree in music. He adds that elusive electro-funk-opera vocal sound that is so much of moosebutter's signature sound. Chris collects DVDs and, on special occasions, watches them.
Chris is currently petitioning Fox to start the "American Idol: Older People" contest.
Weston *
The One-Man Marching Band
Once called "A Mexican John Belushi" (Logan, Utah, March 19, 2004), Weston is not Mexican (half Argentinian), named John (he's from Cleveland, after all), or named Belushi (but he did for a while date a girl named Belushi - that was her only name, because she was a pop singer).
Weston graduated from Brigham Young University with a degree in Marketing and Advertising. For employment he now does both, though not at the same time, and not for at least 45 minutes after eating a large meal.
Weston is currently in a tree flinging empty pizza boxes at celebrities.
Mister Tim *
The Human Vending Machine
Mister Tim sings in a kajillion a cappella groups and is also a one-man a cappella band, composer, teacher, and conductor.
Mister Tim has a Bachelor of Arts degree, Vocal Performance emphasis, from the University of Utah, and studied for a Masters degree in Choral Conducting at the University of Colorado.
Mister Tim is on the Board of Directors of the Contemporary A Cappella Society
Mister Tim has children. Regularly.
Glen *
The Envy of Stupid People Everywhere
A self-proclaimed Air Force BRAT, Glen is actually a nice guy. While at Brigham Young University he was integral in starting the group "Integral" and he broke the norm with his other group, "Norm." Be still my heart, I'm funny.
Glen is a computer programmer, so if you get him angry and he goes nuts, don't say we didn't warn you.
Glen is currently engaged in a staring contest with a ring-tailed kinkajou.
Jeremiah *
Calling him "the bald one" would be too easy
You can call him "Jer"; you can call him "Jar"; just don't call him "Jar-Jar".
As well as singing baritone with moosebutter, Jeremiah has sung (has singed? has sang? sanguine?) screamy-high soprano with Vocal Point (not to be confused with Vocal Point or Vocal Point).
Jeremiah one day hopes to actually talk to a woman.
Richard *
The Robot
Richard used to sing with the college a cappella group Mile 21 from the University of Colorado. He currently sings with several pro a cappella groups, and makes furniture.
Also, he is a ROBOT
Peter *
The crooner
Peter likes to lay down with his ear on the ground until he hears a herd of something or a large something coming towards him, then he gets out of the way. He is a student at the University of Colorado, Boulder. He does tricks if you give him a milkshake. It has to be a really good milkshake.

"Episode 7.... coming to youuuuu... never! No seriously they're never going to make it."
Disney was like, "Challenge accepted."
Episode 10 now 😂😂
I wish they hadn't.
@@srmercury77 Episode 12 all together. From a certain point a view
@@BenjaminMankowski particularly because Disney ruined it
@@DallanRicheyNo, toxic fans are ruining the franchise. Besides, Disney is only distributing the shows/movies just like Fox did all those years ago. It's always been Lucasfilm making the stuff.
Years ago my brother emailed these guys and asked if he could buy the sheet music for this. They emailed back and said "No, you cannot buy it, but we will give it to you for free" and had it as an attachment. Nice guys. 👍
The depths of the internet never cease to provide. This is one of my favorite videos of all times, and these guys should be rewarded for their contribution to the history of the internet.
I know the guy in the lower right corner and he is awesome. I know he does one-man a cappella stuff in Colorado and I think Utah?
@@rhapsodyinblue111, he is in Michigan now and it’s a huge win for our state!
@jenniferjohnson5064 is he? Cool! I'm working with him and a former teacher of mine at a choir camp next week. I'm excited!
my choir is singing this and this song is honestly golden
Our mens choir did it too, it was epic
Our mens choir is doing it this year
"Episode 7: Coming to you Never! Ever!" 3:47
Never mind about that.
I know right I find that funny and I hope it's good
In fairness, they could not have predicted Disney buying out Lucasfilm
Yeah, that didn't age well
1:23 He literally sticks his arm through the border and the guy acknowledges it. This video is genius.
Many years ago, I was still not a Star Wars fan, but as an Indiana Jones fan I was amazed at how John Williams' works are put together. Now I am also amazed at how these parts from the original trilogy are arranged in it! Great work!
They need to show this before they play the movie in theaters.. lol!
Jimmy Cotreau but there would be Indiana Jones and superman theme so Jurassic park
Episode 7 never coming huh?
never.
Not in like 1 day at all
Donald Trump says no.
And it was better than the clone wars
+Max Sherwin much better!
"Natalie Portman!"
"I've got a lovely bunch of coconuts"
^HAHAHAHAHA
2019 and John Williams remains the man, so far!
i come back here every once in a while bc i used to play this every night when i was like 11 when id go to sleep it gives me comfort
These are the REAL guys singing! (I love their various facial expressions and crazy antics!) I'm SOOOO glad this is back!!!
2016 - John Williams is still the man
Heiti john Williams is always the man
Heiti 2020 John Williams is still the man
2021 John Williams is still the man
2022 it is. John Williams the man he is.
2023 John Williams is still the man
Ah the golden age of TH-cam, when content creators didn't have to make high quality 4K FPS videos over 10 (soon to be 20 minute) in order to make a living or have fun creating content.
Yes there are still people that do "TH-cam" but now these creators are being bottlenecked. So sad. Wish some other platform would rise up and be what TH-cam was supposed to be. A place where creators can share their creations without ulterior corporate motive working against them.
I totally agree
I like how episode 7 is coming now lol
how episode 8 is coming now lol
Back then no one was expecting episode 7 to come out.
I wasn’t expecting that line. Great job, guys!
what i find funny is that this comment came out seven years ago
I enjoyed seeing these guys do this one live at a party in Provo Canyon back around 2003 before they were famous. I never forgot it, great song!
JOHN WILLIAMS IS THE MAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN.... truer words were never spoken... er... sung...
2022 and this still is the best. That snap will live rent free in my mind forever, im afraid 😆
sorry to say episode 7 is comming. lol
Comming?
COMMING?
I DON'T KNOW THAT WORD!
Shoutout to Kameron for making nobody laugh.
Kameron Daniels
Did you mean: Cumming
"How was that, Corey?"
HA! Internet reference.
I love mister Tim's little dance at the end
You give me GOOSEBUMPS!!!
"How was that Corey, did we sing that right?" HAHAHAHAHA
Still coming back
Episodes 7-9 coming out, plus rouge one and han solo! lol I love it
I hope you look pretty with that rouge.
SO AWESOME
Haha a genius musical piece! Right up til you guys said no ep 7.., you jinked it. Now it's coming next year lol. How things change.
I respectfully disagree.
Also he gave all the money to charity. So yeah...
Thomas Siemsen It's all you're ever going to get when it comes to Star Wars. Deal with it or not.
Meh...ep7 was never supposed to be released. Originally George Lucas planned on 4-6, then going through 1-3, then going with 7-9 using the same actors from 4-6 aged years down the line...however, he decided to stop. I mean, Disney could make something great from the last trilogy. Let's face it, Disney had their foot in it for a long time. Anyone who's been to Disneyland California has at least seen the star tours ride, if not ridden it. They revamped it & I never got to go in on my last visit to CA a few years ago because they were in the middle of reworking it. I'm actually guessing they started reworking it as soon as they got the rights for 7-9 from George Lucas.
Zoilo McCrocklin i was at hollywood studios and star tours ride WAS AWESOME
Star Wars Episode VII
IT'S HAPPENING!
I remember seeing this when this came out. Have I really been on TH-cam for 12 years holy mother
Brilliant!
"Thats Impossible!, Ill never Join you!" Ha ha, sounded just like luke did lol...
I feel old...
Same... remember 11 years ago!
Still amazing, this ❤️
i had this song in my head all day long! I LOVE IT!
Seriously, one of the best Star Wars tributes ever, and THE best John Williams tribute. Love it!
This performance is absolutely great and I must sincerely congratulate for it, but I haven't heard just a single note of Star Wars.
Instead, I've noticed in a sequence music from "Close Encounters of the Third Kind", "Indiana Johnes", "Superman", "ET", "The Shark", "Jurassik Park", and again "Indiana Johnes"..
Greetings from Rome!
Massimo Mastrangelo That's kind of the point. The songs are all from other John Williams scores, but the words are all from Star Wars.
Love the heck out of this song, but every time I hear him say "Natalie Portman" instead of "Carrie Fisher" it drives me nuts!!!
Me too. I'm just weird I guess.
They wanted five syllables, not four.
+Jack Logansmith Like it would really make that big of a difference.
success!!!
They did it on purpose to be silly. Their original studio recording has "Is that Leia?" instead of "Natalie Portman!"
I looooooooooove this!
I never get tired of this!
"Episode VII, never"
oh, you silly 2008 people
Don't be angry at them. They didn't know.
Oh you silly 2014 people lol Little did you know the future of starwars
@@starquakeheros Oh you silly 2018 people, little did you know of 2020. LOL
@@FJAR1635 lolol
Why is this so catchy!?!?!!!?!?!?!!?!?
This still rules, and it always will.
i love this
who the hell is down voting this?
Episode VII isn't coming? Ha-ha-ha! :D
U guys are amazing, the last bit was hilarious, ❤❤❤❤😄😄😄😄😄😄.
EPIC!
I wonder how these guys feel now that Episode VII is coming out now.
1obxeclipsedriver since the song itself shows they are fans, I guess they are super exited? xD
DerKiesch I'll go with that
Not like Episode 7 isn't coming out in 6 days or anything like that
It's here now :) I hope hope you liked the force awakens as much a me
This is amazing.
hillarious this is the best song ever
This is funny now because ep 7 is comming next year!
I bent my wookie! -Ralph Wiggum (The Simpsons) --episode with the science fair & Lisa sabotages her rival's science project.
This is awesome
Looking back on this, I find it funny how not only do we have way more than a 7th episode, but the Clone Wars is one of the most loved Star Wars show
I thought Natalie Portman played Padme Luke and Leia's mother and Carrie Fisher played Leia??
ya they got that part wrong but whatever
That's true, they were just being silly.
Awesome
First video I legitimately watched on TH-cam back when it first came out!
Oh love u guys!
I have been watching this video for years and I still love it.
Same here
Now you dudes put a LARGE smile on my face!!!
Never gets old
you guys are the best
These guys are the stuff. Top notcch talented, with a dose of wit. me and my roommate cannot get enough of this stuff.
awesome
good job, the best tribute to John Williams, THE MASTER of the soundtracks
This was awesome!!
I love this song and Star Wars
This is the type of video that you can never get tired of. I can watch it every day several times and stills makes me laugh and feel like the biggest star wars geek just because I can relate and remember all the dialogs they use to put lyrics with the music xD. There´s nothing better than Star Wars. It´s that simple.
4 years ago yesterday, all of our lives' goals and dreams became insignificant by this video
This song lives rent free in my head and I reference it far too often for people in my life to still not get it
My dad used to show me this all the time. I loved it. Eventually we hadn't watched it in a long time. We couldn't remember what it was called because I (Being young at the time) just called it "Silly Guys". Finally after many years the urge was so strong to find it that a simple google search of "Star Wars lyrics to John Williams songs" brought this up. I just want to thank you for making this video as it was a wonderful part of my childhood that I will remember forever. Thank you!
im singing this in choir and its our best song all year!
Oh i Love that guys
Never gonna get tired of this, I love most of John Wils' compositions, Jurassic Park and Star Wars tying in at number 1 for me
This gave me tons of laughs, especially the Jaws bit
Just love it!!! Mix of known songs :D
i love this, last year in marching band, i would sing the et part in my head to remember the tune
i love this :3 and i will never stop loving it
WOOOOKKKKIEEE!!!! Brrraaaaaaaahh!.... Lol! This is class!!!!
Goddammit! I can't put it in my favorites more than once!!
love the arm movements haha
really cool
I love this video! Its one of my fav's!!!!
i just listened to this and it sounded darn good!!!! funny too! :D may the force be with you!!!!!!
genius. utah loves you guys. thanks!
And now I can't get it out of my head! Major earworm.
Still my favorite thing on TH-cam..... since Elementary School....
I loved the ending so much! I've got a lovely bunch o' coconuts. Great song guys!
Cool song, loved all of it. MOst of all the part its spaceships, its monsters, its star wars we love it. so do I.
Ha!! This is awesome!!
Still listening to this song in 2016. Here's to Episode 8 next year, and Rogue One later this year!
Possibly going to Canada with my choir to sing this for the Victoria Day Parade while wearing a storm trooper outfit. Get to march 4 miles while singing this ^.^ So Excited
I do too xD Whenever I hear the original songs whichever one it was i will have the star wars version going through my head,
John Williams IS the man! He makes the best movie soundtracks (in my opinion).All his themes are catchy
great.
May the 4th be with you all.
One of the reasons why I love star wars so much is because it inspires people to do great things like this. :D
this is great ha!
How the heck can people not like this
