University of Groningen Lipdub: Mr Blue Sky

[MrChristophercarroll]

:0 im gob smacked that was totaly amazing ... Nowww try it again;)

[GrolschHeerscht]

Moar ach, dien bek stoat schaif... Blieft mooi.

[patrickDK13]

how is the studen life in groningen??



[nostalgic90skid]

Heel vet. c:

[ikbinpopko]

Dr gait niks boven Grunnen! ;-)

[Plamen2007]

This is amazing! Well done guys!

[CharleyS112]

Deze lipdub is echt super vet en blijft mijn favoriet! Ook het begin erg leuk bedacht, en je ziet dat de studenten goed weten wat ze doen moeten en er zitten mooie originele elementen in (rinus en pe, geverfde mr blue sky, drumstellen), goed werk! :) Wij hebben ook een lipdub gemaakt in het kader sportief slagen, so if you're interested please watch & comment on 'ksg lipdub 2011 - sportief slagen' :) Thank you!

[007jw007]

dit is dus hoe een lipdub niet moet: weinig ingezoomd op mensen, teveel gaten. Bij een lipdub moet de monden duidelijk bewegen en mensen pontificaal in beeld. Hier is teveel afstand genomen. Het is in principe een mooie show, maar heeft niets te doen met een lipdub.

[5matthijs5]

@007jw007 dit is in 10 dagen tijd bedacht en gemaakt he? dus voor zo'n korte tijd vind ik het mooi gemaakt;)

[jorjermil]

@007jw007 Inzoomen is sowieso not done. Hier en daar een misschien een paar verbeterpuntjes, maar zeker een goede lipdub :)

[007jw007]

@jorjermil met zooming in bedoel ik, tenminste de mond laten zien. goed voorbeeld is die van Universiteit van Quebec in Montreal eigenlijk de beste ooit gemaakt...deze is geen goede libdub dus. zoals het woord het al zegt: je moet wel de 'playback' laten zien, niet alleen show.

[jorjermil]

@007jw007 Zou deze zeker niet meteen afschrijven. Inderdaad kan er hier en daar beter de lip sync getoond worden, maar op sommige punten gebeurt dat ook wel. Een lipdub is meer dan alleen dat, en de rest van de productie is wel erg gaaf gedaan.

[TeGeniaal]

Hahaha, die scooter die dan achterna word gezeten door de politie. xD

[jalmaanofthegames]

School het Praedinius gymnasium zit

[BillyLids1]

Hahahahaha! Brilliant! Great job and I could say you had so much fun making this video!

[primeoetgrunn]

[joenroll]

Love how someone steals a bike at 5:00 (look close)

[NewScienceAu]

@joenroll Hahahahaha! Didn't notice it! Great! Video is great! So many details... Love it!

[maartensmeding]

Nicer!



[muhamme0]

[josephj735]

face of failure after missing his pan part. 3:25

[savetrainingcomau]

Love those two guys in the library! Are they professors or..?

[Sannaatje]

@savetrainingcomau The redhaired guy works at the University Library. Together they achieved huge regional fandom during the 80s and 90s with comical covers in Dutch and the local dialect, and some original songs as well. Great fun, lots of running gags like the red SPAR T-shirt and every Groningen person with some self-respect knows at least 2 or 3 of their songs by heart. They still perform, mostly at special occasions like this.

[savetrainingcomau]

@Sannaatje thank you so much! I had no idea! They are absolutely amazing! Love them!

[CrosciNet]

Mister blue sky please tell us why you had to hide away for so long? Where did we go wrong? Good job people!

[CoolScienceAustralia]

I was invited to take a look at this - truly great video! I'm definitly sharing this one! Good job!

[alleseigentlich]

Classic guitar solo. Quite literally.

[bluebagontheceiling]

That's what NL and the legal weed do to you... xD

[zipsrule]

Where is this?

[Mrgoldsmart]

This is really great! I love this song!

[blycke]

Helemaal top! Elke keer dat ik kijk zie ik weer nieuwe details!

Waanzinnige vertaling van Pé & Rinus teksten, haha.

[smashsmp]

Fantastic!

Greetings from Birmingham City FC.

[fluxful]

nice :-)

[loveyatex]

It's impossible to watch this video and not get caught up in the spirit of it. I'm still smiling!

[IbteeDApunisher]

I don't care if it's a promo for a university. It was really well put together and delivered a feel-good moment about everything around me.

[RReinvent]

And check the cameo appearance of the Director of the University Library at appr. 3.55 - now how cool is that?!?

[BondgenootOsjo]

Leuk gedaan mensen!

[RReinvent]

This is, by a long shot, the BEST University promo film I have ever seen! (and that's something to say for a Leiden alumna ;-) ) - everyone should register at the Rijksuniversiteit Groningen!

[derKaiser28]

Damn, lange tijd mijn vaste hangplek geweest, de UB. Lekker buiten op het terras koffie drinken en sigaretjes roken....

Mooie tijd :)

[juanitarodriguezs]

I just received my confirmation letter! I'm now of a student from that university. RIJKSUNIVERSITEIT GRONINGEN IS DA SHIT! :)

[TheFutureP]

Unbelievable! I've watched this video for at least 5 times in a row! Great, great! And I love this song! Love it, love it! Great job, guys!

[bugse1975]

fantastische clip, vooral als men te laat op het pannetje slaat op 3:26 min. Hahahahaha!!!

[FritsAlma]

Compimenten, erg vettig!

[TheBeastNL]

men... who is stealing my bike at 5.04... 

[edcasey52]

is that a death clock at 1:43 ??? lol

[bertk1]

Geweldig, ik kijk hem erg vaak en zie steeds weer iets nieuws

[AustralianScience]

Great song! I loved it! And those guys with pot! :D

No, seriously...i didn't have so much fun at my university...guess I choose the wrong one! :))))

[peugeotjasper]

Jongens wat mooi! Ik heb hier rond de eeuwwisseling zoveel jaren gewonnen en verspeeld ;) En de UB is werkelijk nog geen spat veranderd. Nog steeds wachten tot iedereen weg is als je kluisnr vergeten bent? ;)

[TheRONNie87]

@peugeotjasper

Ja 10 uur 's avonds he haha. Dat is nog steeds zo.

Ik geniet van dit filmpjuh. Ik ben een trotse RUG'er

[kaas999]

Gronings volkslied in kanon... briljant!

[joopxiv]

Ja als je dus een filmpje maakt en dat dan weer filmt terwijl je het afspeelt op een iPad dan is dat dus geen Lipdub.

Opnieuw!

[johnbasos]

outstanding!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Theedzausch]

I love it! So dang random. I mean who conceptualized this and then got everyone on board to lip dub a not so popular, but very good ELO song that most of the people in the video probably haven't even heard of? Who? Why?

[muahahavill]

Planking troll at 4:04 lol.

[yoramop]

At 5:00 a guy steals a bike in the background! xD

[hermsionimo]

Message to the brumm, hope you get to the prem league as as fast as possible to give that mckeash cnut and his team what he deserves.

[soliblue]

This is genius! Congrats, from Birmingham.

[NiceJungLady]

Magnificent. There was room for everyone -- every age, size and specialty. That variety made it a dazzling show. Encore!

[c0dz0ml3ies]

3:54 iPad :D

[pheenix42]

Dutch girls...why are you so cute? =D

[DavoBirmingham]

This is incredible. Shoutout from Birmingham.

[TheJohnlie89]

Go to see a french musical flashmob on youtube : To Hand The Torch The musical to gare haussmann saint lazare Paris 22th june.

[193614]

rowing team <3 hehehe

[Glamionius]

What a party!!

[simon1515]

that was bloody fantastic

[MakeEmFapToThis]

Groningen looks like a fun place! hi from Birmingham :)

[iancoley]

Amazing to see Birmingham band ELO song being used for university ad, EXCELLENT work, and sort of happy stuff that works.. St Andrews in Brum needs uplifting video like this. Amazing as seems to have been done in one shoot.

[DavoBirmingham]

@iancoley Well said. Everyone who appeared in this video would be welcome in our great city and must now be considered fans of our city's football club, Birmingham City FC.

[bcfcjoe1995]

@iancoley That would be amazing if we got aload of bluenoses to do something like this

[MrKamilace]

mmmkumybyn

[haloforgood]

It left me breathless....

[wallacericardo]

this is amazing

[WZTwiggs]

This would make a hell of a sprite commercial

[drjonxx]

This just made my day! What a fun, lively, and dynamic act set to one of my all time favorite songs. Bravo.

[henkbein1]

One of the most original lip dubs around. Harvard, Yale, .... whatever, you need more then your nerds to improve on this.

Btw: i graduated on this university in 1982.

[killermoth242]

This is the most original thing ever very cool

[kingsisland]

VERY well done & fun to watch!

[iplu]

I saw at least 15 hot guys!! And I probably missed a few more. Mmmh

[Maasuum]

alot of fat chicks in this school

[123krissybaby123]

Sloppy

[TalksToWalls98]

This is weird... But kinda cool...

[CapnGummy]

@665346 You're fucking stupid. I'm done arguing with dumbasses.

[PANDAonCOCAIN]

awesome!!! great job guys

[JonxJpAnTz]

Wow thats amazing great job guys

[caenlnlao]

@mario9dragon

It rains in the Netherlands all the time, in case you hadn't noticed...

[jvc110u]

I love all the effort that went into this production and it worthy of the grant, but it's not US and it's a higher learning body.

[andoo05]

Oooao

[Amon2012able]

planking sucks LOL

[TKOConnor1]

Tha Nederlands. Yah

[193614]

the robot looks like sting lol

[xXLegionX]

2:18 "Hey dude what keeps you alive?"

[jeroenis]

@xXLegionX hahaha! no it is the local dutch dialect called 'Gronings', he is saying; ' hey du wat kieks ja laif!' that means 'Hey you!' you are giving a sweet look!'

[nTwoUS]

2:03 LOL

[MetropolisDay]

@SupermarketGiant umadbro? i think it was just a fun project that they could take on as a community...

[CamButler]

Getting tired as fuck of these things

[amiserable]

strangely,....very cool. And I don't even know why. really liked it.

I guess I have to ask, however : Why? Why did they do it?

[SupermarketGiant]

Idea totally ripped from that video from the seattle high school. Also, i hate it when amateur videos take lyrics so literally. For example "Running down the avenue, see how the sun shines brightly". They filmed guys running and someone holding a paper cut out of a sun. I'm not just picking on this video (which is cool regardless of some of my qualms), many amateur music videos are guilty of this :/. Just a pet peeve i guess.

[soulrisk1010]

wow thats really good, who the fuck needs special effects when you can just have good old fun??

[shivafool]

heel leuk, seg ...

makes me proud to be a Dutch-American

[funnyboy1234]

ELO!!!

[Birdmanondaweb]

Loopin Louis!!!! OMG, I haven't played that game in forever.

[NinjaTurtling]

ELO!!!!!!!!!



[P3T3RJAY]

[P3T3RJAY]

3:26 you fucked up!

[Wuttin]

4:02 for random planking

[Gipseemagic]

@665346 Yes this confirms that you don't know what a lip dub is.

[CapnGummy]

@665346 Lol you told him a your mom joke..Seriously nobody's heard that one before how old are you? 10?

[Gipseemagic]

@CapnGummy My thoughts exactly.

[CapnGummy]

@Gipseemagic Yeah this world is overpopulated with really stupid people. At least the music video was good.

[665346]

@CapnGummy omg bro i am 10 well about to be 11............

i bet u and ur grandma get alot of happyness from lip dubing together lol

[CapnGummy]

@665346 You are one stupid motherfucker. They shouldn't retarded little kids have youtube accounts. Seriously the only jokes you can think of are illiterate ones that are about my relatives. Shut the fuck up and go play Super Barbie Adventure or something. Do something that most 10 year olds do nowadays, hick.

[geoholt3]

This is awesome you guys!

[Pikerchu13]

I love how this is the only video they've made that's gotten any of views.

[air41061]

Awesome! Beautiful production, beautiful people, beautiful university! Thank you for brightening my day in the USA.

[mikeaa000]

[134679112211976431]

[RoberMatts]

[MrBallinBC]

The end was a little confusing. But the rest was AWESOME!

[timzwaagstra]

@MrBallinBC That's the local anthem - Grunnens Laid, or Groningen's Song :)

[MPSecare]

[theglekke789]

[Shmiefman]

[JabberCT]

Wow! Great job. That looked like a lot of fun. You guys rock!

[sunyboy54]

I loved the 2 people planking on the staircase. LOL.

[Props2u]

This was amazing! Loved it!!

[YehSmoshWorld]

i think they took this idea from the first episode of the office in season 7

[SamuraiM0]

@m5p944 Ohhh wow seems like your primitive brain has shown it self!

Your stupidity really reaches max on all charts.

How about you show your ballz and run in the so called "ghetto" and start screaming "niggers"

I would love to see how that ends!

1 less of you helps allot!

Pathetic excuse is what you are!

[m5p944]

@SamuraiM0 I believe the oposite is true. Your primitive brain has shown stupidity. Luck of knowledge and personal experience with those spiecies makes you dangerous.

[SamuraiM0]

@m5p944 Hhahah your the one with a primitive brain acting on your stupidity!

Instead of knowing the facts, you are showing it here your self you act on what you believe!

Calling me stupid haha, than what are you?

Lmao you live in your own world, a world of stupidity with ignorant idiots.

Your the one with a primitive brain a brain so narrow minded it doesn't know what it does

It believes because it was told to believe!

[wileyt57]

Hello from the University of Utah in the United States. That was totally awesome! Thanks and I love the ELO song too!

[Jesslayc]

wow this is just amazzing! and they did it all on 1 take!!!!

[MusicisLife2471]

wow awesome vid but im dutch so i can understand all of this n i dont tink that the translation was exactly alike but whoo cares that was great

[mastery910]

@MusicisLife2471 That's middle ages Dutch, you still need more schooling obviously DURR!

[russellchamp]

Good thing they're outside of the USA. With the proposed Bill S.978, it could be a federal felony to post lip-synced videos like this to the internet.

[kingcam789]

I wish everyone would do this kind of stuff...

[keifer50]

this awesome.

[fighter91]

Great video. Made me happy!

[spinmonkey4401]

Thanks U of Groningen! You made my day.
