This is for a Spanish project that we did. It is to the tune of Boulevard of Broken Dreams by Green Day.
Some of the credits got cut off, no matter what size the font was for some strange reason.
The ones that are cut off are as follows:
Bassist/Singer-Juanita Diaz
Lead Guitar-Chris Bonham
Camera/Acoustic Guitar-Chris Prentice
Camera/K-Fed-P.J. Wiater
For those of you who want lyrics, here they are with the translations of the Spanish in parenthesis. If they were translated earlier, they will not be translated a second time.
I walk a lonely road
Porque yo era muy estupido (Because I used to be very stupid)
I never studied
Entonces hacía trampas mucho (So I used to cheat a lot)
My teacher hates me
In the Spanish Class of Broken Grades
Where I fall asleep
And I'm the only one that's seventeen
I walk alone
I walk alone
I walk alone
I walk a...
Jugaba ajedrez con mis amigos (I used to play chess with my friends)
Paseaba en el zoologico (I used to stroll through the zoo)
Sometimes I wish that I had studied Spanish
'Til then I'm failing
Ah-ah's
Yo iba al cine (I used to go to the movies)
Instead of doing my Spanish homework
'Til it's fine
Then I try and finish on the bus
Iba a pescar (I used to go fishing)
I don't catch a single thing all day
If I had a brain
I might work instead of slacking off
I walk alone
I walk alone
I walk alone
I walk a...
Jugaba ajedrez con mis amigos
Paseaba en el zoologico
Sometimes I wish that I had studied Spanish
'Til then I'm failing
Ah-ah's
I walk alone
I walk a...
My teacher hates me
In the Spanish Class of Broken Grades
Where I fall asleep
And I'm the only one that's...
Jugaba ajedrez con mis amigos
Paseaba en el zoologico
Sometimes I wish that I had studied Spanish
'Til then I'm flailing
There is also another video with the same name (plus the word Extras) that contains the extras/bloopers from filming this. Check it out please and thank you.
Thanks for watching!
Are you serious? I'm glad you used a parody on Green Day, since they suck so bad, you couldn't make them any worse. Oh wait, you did. They don't sing as flat as a second grader.

@MrGingeleski Ah, I suppose you can play guitar like Joe Satriani and sing like Robert Plant then

considering that my brother is the only other one who will sing, and his voice is more suited for death metal. That and I was the only one who knew the words we were singing. We didn't put this up because the quality of the music was great, it was mainly for a laugh and so people at our school could see it. If we have offended you with the flat singing, too bad, get over it.

@MrGingeleski I think that considering that we'd never played that song together prior to filming it and the singer (me) having absolutely no way of hearing what her pitch sounds like to everyone else until watching it the next day, we did a fairly good job. I do realize that I sound flat there. That was my first thought on seeing it. As that was the next day when we were editing it and there was absolutely no way we could redo it, that's how it stayed. I am the best singer in the group,

Well i certanly think that there could of been more spanish envolved. And I really think that you shouldn't of recieved a 100 on this project because im sure the other students didn't do as "extravegant" but had more spanish... thats all i wanted to say

Yeah, that's pretty much what our teacher said. She cut us slack as this was the first video project we've done, but she said that she'd be expecting more spanish in the next one we do.
