So in the 11th grade, these guys were writing clever comedic lyrics summarizing _Wreck of the Whale Ship Essex,_ complete with major and minor plot points, correct usage of nautical jargon, and understanding the story so well they could satirize it. When I was in the 11th grade, I occupied myself angling around trying to catch a glimpse of Mary Sue's shapely gams, deciphering the mysteries of the graffiti on a desk older than me, and calculating how many seconds until free period.
This one is my favorite but unfortunately they will no longer perform it. Apparently, Carson strongly objects to it 😕. I had an opportunity to tell Carson that this song truly showed what geniuses they were even at such a young age. He shyly thanked me. He is very humble young man. BTW, they made an A on it.
This is pure gold😂😂 idk how the other students keep such composure, I woulda been losing my mind watching these Simon & Garfunkel lookin muthafuckers 😂😂😂
I'm an English teacher, and I would give that an easy 100- better than reading trash reports... hope my students don't read this. Edit: I feel it necessary to clarify for those who fail to recognize this is written 'tongue-and-cheek'. I always gave my students creative outlets in the classroom. I was simply making light of the contrast between the creative excellence of this compared to the dry nature of a written report. I think teachers should always provide students with those opportunities. They should also help students learn how to write. Both are important.
I had an English teacher in high school who had the entire class divide into production teams and each group would make a movie parody of a subset of the books we'd read in her class. My group decided to take characters from the main books, put them in a high school class, and have them make a movie parody of the books they'd read in their class, except instead of being mainstays of American and English literature, their books were our history textbook, the third Harry Potter, and The Very Hungry Caterpillar. The only word that adequately describes this movie is "disasterpiece." It's a 17-minute nonsensical clusterfuck full of side plots that don't go anywhere, jokes that explicitly make no sense, and one scene that features Harry, Ron, and Hermione urgently strategizing on how to prevent the Very Hungry Caterpillar from eating the US Constitution. At one point, it cuts to a commercial for a Shamwow-for-language for the specific purpose of fulfilling an assignment requirement for using vocabulary terms immediately before a climactic, and gratuitously violent, fight scene between the protagonists' production team and a rival production team that kind of appeared out of nowhere, but also justified their existence by referring to a deceptively minor plot point from a couple of scenes before, which is the one time in the entire movie the script veers dangerously close to "trying to be actually good." But my favorite joke in the movie is the absolute mockery that is made of eyewear continuity. The "teacher" character takes off his glasses every time the camera cuts to him, but is never seen putting them on, while Huckleberry Finn has a pair of shades mysteriously appear on his face between two adjacent shots of him, and neither is ever acknowledged or explained. We got the only A+ across all of that teacher's classes and she liked it so much she kept a copy on DVD to show every time she did that assignment in the future. And it is also on my channel.
That was awesome! I'm an English teacher and my students will from now on have the option to do all of their future assignments as a song instead. Thank you for the inspiration. :D
the trick my best teachers did was to never define what the project had to be, just the content that needed to be covered. You'll get plenty of powerpoints and posters, but the creatives will always do something like this.
My English teacher makes us write summaries for the plays we read and gives us the option to rap it so long as we can find someone who can beatbox. Needless to say, almost everyone in my school knows how to beatbox and we have beatboxing tournaments in the gym during lunch.
A ridiculous amount of talent from these kids. The songwriting talents they possess are way beyond their years. I'd love to see where these kids are now.
While you sounded great (especially for 11th graders!), I can’t help but feel you missed a glorious opportunity: to play this in the key of...Sea. I’ll show myself out...
Lyrics if anyone is wondering: (Disclaimer: I'm getting the lyrics directly from listening to the video so there will probably be some inaccuracies and words or phrases I misheard but this is the best I can do) [1st Verse] Well the Essex, she was a lucky ship, a-captained by George Pollard But when she left port for a journey of sorts, she never could have reckoned one fowler She was a whaling ship about 85 feet, with a crew that numbered 20 She was headed on around to The Offshore Ground, a whaling land of plenty Four days in just past Cape Cod, they were faced with an oncoming gale They tried to turn around, but they got knocked down because they never shorted sail [Chorus] "Only a minor setback," Pollard said to Chase "And if we press on through, we'll be right back in the race" [2nd Verse] Later on off the South American coast, the watch shouted "thar she blows!" And a rite too, they had the beast harpooned, and the blood and oil did flow Their eyes looked rabid as they tore apart the flesh, and laid it out to dry Not a-one of them frowned as they boiled it down, and smoked furled up to the sky [3rd Verse] They finally sailed to The Offshore Ground, and they thought they were in luck Thought there was no doubt when they saw spout it would soon become a clusterf... problem Chase had returned to repair his stroud, while the other boat stayed on the hunt His eyes grew wide as the gazed port side, and was met with a whales full brunt When Pollard pulled up in his own little launch he could see that Chase was pail (Spoken) He asked, "my God, Mr. Chase, what is the matter?" To which Chase responed: (Sung) "We've been stoved by a whale" [Chorus] "Only a minor setback," Pollard said to Chase "And if we press on through, we'll be right back in the race" [4th Verse] So they gathered up some water and so hardtack too, but they didn't wanna leave the wreck Pollard said "no," Matthew Joy said "yes," so they all said "what the heck" As for just which way to sail, none of them could agree But it was decided for the best not to sail to the west, the ultimate irony [5th Verse] They tried to sail west but they wind brew bad so they drifted and sailed to the south Soon thing turned dire they began to perspire, and their tongue shriveled up in their mouth [Chorus] "Only a minor setback," Pollard croaked to Chase "And if we can just find an island we'll be right back in the race" [6th Verse] No sooner had those words escaped his mouth that they heard a weak "land ho!" There were smiles all around at the island they found, and they pulled the boats into a cove And just a few days it was no surprise when Pollard said "seems to me." That the food's run low so we'll have to go, and they set back out to sea Joy grew ill as the storm came up that couldn't be placated He was hangin by a thread and soon his was dead, and the boats got separated [Chorus] "Only a minor setback," Chase said to himself As he and his crew nurse their deteriorating health [Spoken Verse] Now this is the point in the book when things really began to go south for the crew of the Essex, both literally and metaphorically. On Chase's boat their rations were cut to 1.5 ounces of hardtack a day, which of course was half of half of their original rations--which in the first place wasn't enough to sustain the life of an adult man. But it was much better than the situation on Hendrick's and Pollard's boat, where they had run out of food entirely. As they sat around and stared at each other in the hot sun, they began to dream of more imaginative ways to curve their hunger. [7th Verse] The first man died and they jumped on him with much ferocity They cut off his head then his feet and his hands and tossed them into the sea Then they went for the liver and the heart, for you know they taste the best With their [ravenous?] paws and their ravenous jaw, as they greedily tore the rest [8th Verse] By the time they were sighted by a whaling ship, there were but five men left They were sucking on bones, spoke only in moans with dignity devoided breath [Chorus] "Only a minor setback," the crewmen said to Chase "And if we get back to Nantucket we'll be right back in the race"
This genuinely makes me me well up in tears every time I rewatch it. The talent and energy bursting from these two… They went entirely out of their way and put in 300% of the effort required just to fulfill their passions for an instant in front of their peers… and they were given the leeway to do it. That’s what education is all about. They were given room to be themselves within a constructive context. Feels like a scene from a movie I wanna watch. Dead Poets Society type shit.
Retired British teacher, here..... If students of mine had turned in a homework assignment like this I would have been delighted.... Play to your talents in life.... they did exactly what was asked of them, but in a way few will ever forget seeing or hearing. Two exceptionally talented individuals. Loved it, thanks.
Incredible imagination and talent. These kids will go far in life. Also very impressed that this clearly looks like a public district school (as opposed to a private school) well done all around. Huge education success.
I just had to come back to this masterpiece after watching Caitlin Doughty's video on "The Real Moby Dick Was So Much Worse." I kept thinking 'just a minor setback...' after every new piece of information she brought up.
Alright, this is so cool watching where the musical genius came from... And also the comedy stylings of Carson. I can just imagine that he is hilarious when it's just you two guys together, is that the way he really is or not? Buddy
Is there anything you can't do? You play just about every stringed instrument imaginable, plus harmonica and spoons, and now comedy as well. Gotta love it!

The spoon solo after the cannibalism verse was comedic gold. I can’t believe the class didn’t go wild for that.

Lyrics if anyone is wondering:
(Disclaimer: I'm getting the lyrics directly from listening to the video so there will probably be some inaccuracies and words or phrases I misheard but this is the best I can do)
[1st Verse]
Well the Essex, she was a lucky ship, a-captained by George Pollard
But when she left port for a journey of sorts, she never could have reckoned one fowler
She was a whaling ship about 85 feet, with a crew that numbered 20
She was headed on around to The Offshore Ground, a whaling land of plenty
Four days in just past Cape Cod, they were faced with an oncoming gale
They tried to turn around, but they got knocked down because they never shorted sail
[Chorus]
"Only a minor setback," Pollard said to Chase
"And if we press on through, we'll be right back in the race"
[2nd Verse]
Later on off the South American coast, the watch shouted "thar she blows!"
And a rite too, they had the beast harpooned, and the blood and oil did flow
Their eyes looked rabid as they tore apart the flesh, and laid it out to dry
Not a-one of them frowned as they boiled it down, and smoked furled up to the sky
[3rd Verse]
They finally sailed to The Offshore Ground, and they thought they were in luck
Thought there was no doubt when they saw spout it would soon become a clusterf... problem
Chase had returned to repair his stroud, while the other boat stayed on the hunt
His eyes grew wide as the gazed port side, and was met with a whales full brunt
When Pollard pulled up in his own little launch he could see that Chase was pail
(Spoken)
He asked, "my God, Mr. Chase, what is the matter?"
To which Chase responed:
(Sung)
"We've been stoved by a whale"
[Chorus]
"Only a minor setback," Pollard said to Chase
"And if we press on through, we'll be right back in the race"
[4th Verse]
So they gathered up some water and so hardtack too, but they didn't wanna leave the wreck
Pollard said "no," Matthew Joy said "yes," so they all said "what the heck"
As for just which way to sail, none of them could agree
But it was decided for the best not to sail to the west, the ultimate irony
[5th Verse]
They tried to sail west but they wind brew bad so they drifted and sailed to the south
Soon thing turned dire they began to perspire, and their tongue shriveled up in their mouth
[Chorus]
"Only a minor setback," Pollard croaked to Chase
"And if we can just find an island we'll be right back in the race"
[6th Verse]
No sooner had those words escaped his mouth that they heard a weak "land ho!"
There were smiles all around at the island they found, and they pulled the boats into a cove
And just a few days it was no surprise when Pollard said "seems to me."
That the food's run low so we'll have to go, and they set back out to sea
Joy grew ill as the storm came up that couldn't be placated
He was hangin by a thread and soon his was dead, and the boats got separated
[Chorus]
"Only a minor setback," Chase said to himself
As he and his crew nurse their deteriorating health
[Spoken Verse]
Now this is the point in the book when things really began to go south for the crew of the Essex, both literally and metaphorically. On Chase's boat their rations were cut to 1.5 ounces of hardtack a day, which of course was half of half of their original rations--which in the first place wasn't enough to sustain the life of an adult man. But it was much better than the situation on Hendrick's and Pollard's boat, where they had run out of food entirely. As they sat around and stared at each other in the hot sun, they began to dream of more imaginative ways to curve their hunger.
[7th Verse]
The first man died and they jumped on him with much ferocity
They cut off his head then his feet and his hands and tossed them into the sea
Then they went for the liver and the heart, for you know they taste the best
With their [ravenous?] paws and their ravenous jaw, as they greedily tore the rest
[8th Verse]
By the time they were sighted by a whaling ship, there were but five men left
They were sucking on bones, spoke only in moans with dignity devoided breath
[Chorus]
"Only a minor setback," the crewmen said to Chase
"And if we get back to Nantucket we'll be right back in the race"
I think it's 'what followed' in an accent instead of 'one fowler' in the forst verse but other than that seems good
Thank you for these lyrics.
You are a scholar and a saint, thank you!
You're the man !

It might be dumb but every couple of months or so I have an uncontrollable urge to hear it again!

"Only a minor setback" uses C minor chord (sea minor).

and just a few years earlier, Mountain's Nantucket Sleighride was written about the very same ship The Essex
