- My "If Bach Wrote The Krusty Krab Theme" video gained some views recently thanks to you guys, so I decided to do it again:) Thanks for watching!
Also, in that video some people said they were disappointed at the John Cage clip because I did a 4'33 gag instead of a "prepared piano" bit, so here ya go!

That Chopin version! I truly believed that the Cantina Band’s first love had just died of typhus. 😢
LOL! Good one!
XD
Tuberculosis.
Was the band in Birkenau?
Fgrin d'an's poor lady wife
Chopin really would be the one to make the cantina song sound depressing tbh
Melancholy and contemplative, at worst
Bruh. I have never listened to Chopin at felt depressed. Or that he was depressed. Perhaps u lack musical vocabulary/knowledge to describe what u truly mean.
One of my favorite nocturnes
@@newagain9964 lol
@@newagain9964 Chopin was a sickly person who suffered from a number of infirmities and was documented to have had many depressive episodes and probable mood disorders.
Bach would make Cantina into a 3, 4, 5, or 6 part fugue.
With a part at the end where the lazy sopranos just sang the theme once. (Wachet auf ruft uns die stimme burned itself into my memory, since it had four pages of fugue in which the sopranos had four notes and the tenors wanted to blow their brains out.)
Also 1 contrato
Nothing by Bach would have been this banal.
Agreed. This "Bach" was banal. The "Chopin" made up for it, though.
Hello, I’m Johann Sebastian Bach, if you wish for a Fugue let me know.. „play the same Fugue again“… So it may be…
Can you PLEASE make a full version of the Chopin piece? The world NEEDS THIS!
THE CHOPIN ONE IS UNREAL NOAH
erm pretty sure his name is nojah ☝️🤓
The reharmonization is actually insane
*NOJAH
The Stevie Wonder one is literally just hill climb racing
Lol, spot on
Yooooooooo
Higher Ground by Stevie Wonder inspired the hill climb racing music
pretty sure it's the other way around..
@@WilliamNyberg No bc this video was made after HCR came out.
chopin was done insanely well
Should be recorded…..crazy good.
The Well-Tempered Cantina Band?
Well-tempered kloohorn.
Cantata Band
*Das* Well-Tempered Cantina Dand!
Distemper'd? 😂
hahaha, good one!
- Came for the Bach, stayed for the unexpected (and delightful) rest!
I feel like stevie wonder's version would be like an 80's themed cop spinoff. "Tatooine: Cantina Cops"
It would just be COPS: tattooine, or Tatooine PD. Because no cops, just chill at the Cantina, and only have jurisdiction at the Cantina.
But tbh I don’t hear the bad boys sound in
in it whatsoever.. just sounds funky instead of reggae to me
Missing from the Stevie take is some modulation. 💀
I hear the Barney Miller theme
@@Puppy_Puppington The Streets of Mos Eisley.
The Chopin one made me question what of value I can bring to a chaotic and meaningless world and am currently struggling to a reason to live. 10/10
This post is a solid introspective start. Star Wars Chopin has changed us all.
Wait'll you hear Wagner 😂
0:44 Chopin was the most beautiful version IMO
It made you feel Polish, then.
@@YesPlease1 Beauty and existential crises can coexist.
Chopin was absolutely gorgeous
As a Star Wars fan and avid classical music listener I see this as an absolute win
Given that John Williams is already recognized as a classical composer, win/win!
@@KororaPenguin I see this as an absolute win
Same here, huge classical music listener and Star Wars fan, what are your favorite composers? Ofc John Williams is one.
The Oscar Peterson version is just great. So groovy. I really would like to hear an extended version of this swing. Also the funk version for Stevie sounds great.
And don't forget to sing in between like Oscar did...naaoaoaoaoaaaaa. 😂
*Shudders at the John Cage prep*
I think you need a disclaimer that no keyboards were harmed during the making of this video. :)
Horrible! Just horrible! And I laughed ... so shoooot me haha! :D
Seriously. My Roland Phantom G-8 gave me apocalyptic side eye during this segment.
Is John cage the guy with the song with no notes and just rests the whole time?
@@sleepycritical6950 Yes and no. The idea is you should listen to everything that going on for 4 minutes and 33 seconds and that's the composition. Creaking chairs, the piano lid, air condition, dog barks in the distance. In 2024 it seems like an unnecessary idea but in the mid 1900s this was not the only "different" idea composers and art people in general had. So the song is called "4:33" and can't be talked about out of context without seeming unnecessary.
I admit it: I legit thought the empty chair was going to be the whole thing.
You did Oscar proud young man.
Well, it is a jizz tune, so quite his genre already .
I'm not sure I'd heard of him before, but I am all for making the Cantina song even jazzier.
@@theemmjay5130 Peterson's solos are spectacular but, personally, his Trio work sets my heart on fire.
That may be my favorite!
oscar was solid.
Chopin variation was sheer genius.
I really appreciated the prepared piano reference! When I saw John Cage, I thought you were just going to mock 4’33”, especially when it started with an empty chair.
same here - and both jokes were funny :)
Even better that it wasn't the full "verse", just the first phrase before moving on, because that's all that any of us can take
Me too! I snorted when I saw the empty chair.
Even though that first one says "what if Bach wrote" it works equally well as "what if Lurch was in the Cantina band"
Kenobi: Lurch, do you take requests?
Lurch: Yeeeesss, Mr. Kenobiiii.
I loved the necessary liberties with the composition. Not merely covers but genuine "what-ifs".
If Debussy wrote Cantina Band:
*weird scales + crazy rubato + literally every note in the chromatic scale*
You mean pentatonic scale.
Just saying.
Actually facts though
I was waiting the Debussy's version
Yeah, I was hoping for a Debussy version. Alas, it was not to be.
The Pete Townshend version sounded exactly as I imagined it would! 😅 Great work!
I was waiting for him to smash a guitar at the end.
Jabba O'Riley!
It didn't sound like Townshend at all though. Adding in the keyboards and drums from Teenage Wasteland isn't enough.
The Stevie Wonder made me think of the bar in _Heavy Metal_ , with Devo singing We're Through Being Cool.
I think I hear a Heavy Metal reference once a decade 😂
Woha! Blast from the past... thanks. I need to watch that again. Must be more than 25 years since I saw it last.
I just reinvestigated some old Devo yesterday. Can't believe I bought those albums 40+ years ago!
He absolutely nailed the John Cage part
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! I saw what you did there! :D
Hahahahah!
The chopin arrangement is excellent
The lamb lies down on broadway! This guy has great taste, and playing ability
The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway is Genesis. This is Teenage Wasteland.
@@c.a.savage5689🤓🤓🤓
I’m talking about the white poster on the back.
Also technically it’s called Babe Oriley, not teenage wasteland.
I liked all the versions, but Chopin's I loved! Bravo!
I didn't know I needed that Chopin Nocturne until I heard it. Well done!
Great video, I just discovered you this morning and I'm very grateful to TH-cam's algorithm
Thank you so much! Really appreciate that:)
HE'S DONE IT AGAIN. Awesome composition work, loved Oscar Peterson's
Chopin is EXPECTIONALLY on point!
Thank you for not making the John Cage joke everyone makes. (I admit I was worried for the first second.)
Yeah, you not sitting at the keyboard had me worried too!!
He made that one already, in the Krusty Krab theme vid
He clearly prepared for the reaction.
ok, i'll walk away now.
@@catfdljwsTake your like, you monster.
Who is John cage?
My favorite was Chopin 🖤
Yes! The Chopin version was real fire. Stevie Wonder on 2 for me.
@@luucdentoom6955 👍✨
Really nice!
He should do Chopin Broccoli.
@@darkpatches Chopin Albert Broccoli (Chopin / James Bond). The execution might be nearly impossible with somber Chopin meeting brash Bond, but remembering that the Bond theme is _relatively_ sotto at first so maybe there's a way. I admit that I have next to no formal training so don't bother @ me! 😂
I love both the Oscar Peterson and Chopin versions! You really hit the nail on the head with their styles.
While the John Cage one he hit the nail on the keyboard
Love the Chopin one--it sounds like a lullaby
Yeah, if you wanted your baby to off himself.
Full version of the Chopin or Peterson would be a bliss 😍
This is by far the greatest Star Wars Cantina Piece ripoff medley I have yet seen, and I seen them all over the last nearly 50 years since the original film was released. Just far and away too cool. I also envy your Seconds Out poster, you young snotface imposter. Please keep this work up. Subscribed.
I just can't Overlook that blanket on your chair...
lol nice one
Love the John Cage version
I love this. Please keep the Townshend and Cage running gags
That Stevie jam fuckin' jumps.
Thank you for introducing me to one of my favorite Chopin Preludes.
My favorite part about these is that you always come away with at least one name in music to check out you’ve never heard of before
OK, this is absolutely brilliant. Mimicking other people's styles takes A LOT of talent, and you really nailed them.
Oh my GOD ... Beyond incredible. Like a master impressionist, you channeled each artist/composer and utterly nailed 'em all. Magic! And! That cute bit at the beginning as Bach arrives, just...I mean I wish you could have seen my reactions then, and throughout. What a great entertainer you are.
The in-universe title of the piece is "Mad About Me" (or however that phrase runs in Basic), so Bach would call it "Verrückt Nach Mir" and Chopin would call it "Fou de Moi".
Bach, always Bach....forever
I’m glad you didn’t make a 4’33” joke in the John Cage segment, because that would be the last thing musical TH-cam needed.
The algorithm has bless you bro. Glad to have you on my feed
the reharms are crazy
Awesome Genesis poster back there! My favorite album of theirs.
Absolutely, mine too
Funny, that's the only one I don't really get.
@@chriswilson1853 I don't fully get it too, that's why I love it
I'm not a Back guy, but that Chopin version... whew! I felt that. I'm now off to watch your Steve Wonder full version.
Thanks so much! Really appreciate!!🙏
The Chopin one sounds like it would be perfect for a dinner party in Coruscant for a number of well-to-do guests and dignitaries.
This is fantastic... deserves to be seen by millions, not hundreds!
I'm so glad I watched this high. Pete Townshend at the end there sort of short circuited my mind after I was already reeling from the Stevie Wonder segment.
That Chopin version is what would appear if Tim Burton did Star Wars.
Awesome command of the styles! Demonstrates perfectly why Bach is so loved.
If Bach could have written the cantina band song, he wouldn't.
I'll put John Williams up against Bach any day.
There, I said it.
@@worldwideinterests1 But he's borrowed a lot of 2 well known Russian composers.
@@worldwideinterests1 Heretic.
@@echodelta9 Bach borrowed from his contemporaries as well. It's the nature of music.
What if Rossini wrote the "Cantina Band" song? Oh, wait! He DID!
Really?
Classical music, yes. Wrong century, though, and wrong side of the world. It was written by an American composer named John Williams.
Very funny! I'm not a big Rossini fan, so it took me a few minutes to track this down. It was pretty cool, but would have been much better if Handel had written it.
@@snowmonster42 Link please? I don’t know this, and need to hear it, lol.
@@snowmonster42Yes, where?
omfg THANK you for putting Oscar in this, I don't see him featured in ANYTHING nearly as much as I should and he's my favorite jazz pianist 😭
Dude!... As a pianist of 50 years, I salute you! 👍
2:48 It could be the N64 version too 😂
He’s. Done. It. Again.
You absolutely nailed all these styles. Literally, for the John Cage one. And the Oscar Peterson was a massive improvement on the original. Encore!
Finally, something that I like on TH-cam. Well thought out and marvelously performed in every style!
Thanks so much!🙏 Really glad you enjoyed it!

Re: Cage - Good to see you turning an electronic instrument into a Gamelan Orchestra!
That was more of a toy piano sound to me
What no Bill Murray?
🎶Star Wars. Everything's coming up Star Wars.🎶
Never seen a video from this channel before, but that it is tremendous musical versatility
Cantata band
👏👏👏🧐
Joining the chorus of love for that Chopin version - it was absolutely BEAUTIFUL. And yeah, you got that SWING on Oscar's version... but I completely lost it at the empty chair following the John Cage title. 🤣🤣🤣
BRILLIANT!!! I had to listen to it five more times. You really hear music for what it is.
Really appreciate that! Means a lot!!🙏
JS Bach never repeated a bar of music. They see often similar but never the same. It’s one of his trademarks.
The Pete Townshend style had me laughing too hard. Well done!
The Chopin one is amazing! Hope you make a full version! 😍
Latest video if you want to check it out!
Love the "Lamb Lies Down On Broadway" cover in the background. 😃
You talented git! You earned my subscription. No matter which composer I'm into at the time, I always have time for Bach; and now NOJAH.
Thank you so much! Your kind words and subscription really means the world to me🙏🙌
Always love seeing the carpet from The Shining draped over a chair. Fantastic.
Thank you, YT Algorithm, for putting this in my feed; & thank you, NOJAH, for these interpretations! I confess I don't know enough about the pianists to appreciate everything but I sure enjoyed watching/listening to you play, & that skit at the beginning was both funny & a clever way to introduce the tune. Good fun! 🤓
That was absolutely brilliant! You are definitely a Synth Lord.
This made me smile and laugh on a day when I really needed to...This is so much fun and you are SO talented...wow...Thank you so much for making this video and posting it for all of us. Amazing.
I’m a swing dancer-your Oscar Peterson version is *killer°. I know a ton of people who’d rush onto the dance floor for that. (the Stevie Wonder version grooves too)
Really, really nice work. You captured the essence of all of those artists in an incredible range of styles. I laughed out loud at the John Cage bit. Little Stevie was, in the parlance of the day, right on! The Uprights are currently working on a blues/honky tonk version of Fur Elise called, 'Lucifer Elise'. I think you would find it amusing. Again, great job!
Thank you so much!! Much appreciated! Oh that’s awesome, I’ll have to check that out!👆
I needed a smile today and youtube gave me this. thanks for the grin!
Thank you so much! Comments like yours are what make me smile, so thank YOU!
I could see the Stevie Wonder one actually in a movie. That was excellent!
I love this so much!! Please make this a regular series.
Here's a few song suggestions:
Twinkle, Twinkle
Spoon Full of Sugar
Bridge Over Troubled Water
Over the Rainbow
Pink Panther theme
Theme song to Friends
Theme song to the Office
Jeopardy theme song

Don't Stop Believing
Here Comes The Sun
I Did It My Way
Let It Go
Hakuna Matata
Cruella Deville
Don't Worry Be Happy
Yesterday
Lean on Me
BRILLIANT! Sometimes spin-versions are better than the original! Great job! John Williams should be impressed!
Oh my gosh, I absolutely love every version you put together. I bet it took a long time to write each one. Great work man! 😎
I love this! I think you should do a Scott Joplin version. The rhythms of the original song fit very well into the Ragtime mode.
Now Grateful Dead playing the cantina band song. Especially with their space improv.
I watch way too much TH-cam and this is the best thing for longer than just lately. Brilliant.
Well thank God Bach turned up to do it right
Good work! I nearly turned it off a moment too early thinking it was only going to be the Bach treatment, which was probably the one I enjoyed least.
I remember thinking how silly this bit of the movie was (if it's the scene I'm thinking of) because the music was SO not alien. Like, not only recognisably terrestrial but really quite a specific terrestrial genre of tavern music! I tried to give the film makers the benefit of the date and assume this was a deliberately humorous touch, but then it's a slippery slope... before long I might find myself forgiving the foolishness of the entire series on the basis of generously calling it satire.
So fun! Nice representations: fast triplet riffs in Stevie wonder's take, the John Cage alteration of the instrument, never mind the music! swingin' the Peterson (you did alright!) "Like flowing water" the description Frederic heard so often it made him gag...Kinda wish you had taken a swipe at Gesualdo, Beethoven & (even though I don't like his work) Liszt. Well played!
Really appreciate that! Thank you so much!🙏🙏🙏
Wow! Dangerous levels of FUNK on that Stevie Wonder version. Love it!
BRILLIANT!!! Thank you. All the aliens and myself and the great composers’ souls are chillin’ and enjoying the great new one man band…
…although your Shining Overlook Hotel corridor moquette seat is low key spooking us
In the immortal words of Obiwan Nahbi Kenobi-Flat: Use the sforzando, Luke! Your renditions were very clever. I have just subscribed.
The Oscar Peterson rendition was the best.
I've never heard of him, so thank you for introducing him to me. When I left this video, I checked out some of his videos.
Wow!
So again, thank you.
You are very talented. I've listened to the classical composers before and enjoy their music. You captured the essence of their styles.
Absolutely superb, especially the Chopin one. 🙌🏼
Good stuff. Love your Genesis poster. You don't see posters that old of them very often.
