Gadzook. Is It You? took 4 and half months, and Bing took 8 and a half. See you in a little over a year for the next one.

Oh, and make sure to watch the Message I link to after this!

This has been one maddening labor of love for me. This is a remix of a movie that has been near and dear to be since around Third Grade-- the 1993 romantic-comedy-fantasy classic, Groundhog Day! It's comprised entirely-- and I mean entirely out of small bits and pieces of the movie, either re-pitched, slowed down, sped up, and sometimes with a slight touch of auto-tune for good measure (or a lot of auto-tune to re-configure chords in some score samples). The piece is completely inspired from my love of all things Pogo (aka the genius remixer from Perth), as well as just my affinity for music itself. I readjusted Jack Conte's VideoSong medium to show every single one of the parts sampled. I tried to make this song a sweeping medley of emotions, quite in the same way the movie itself is! I do so hope you enjoy its whimsicality. *grins* It's quite a smorgasbord of sight and sound. Am I right or am I right or am I right or am I right?

SPECIAL THANKS to jeesh123 ( http://www.youtube.com/jeesh123 ) and WeWearCompassion ( http://www.youtube.com/WeWearCompassion ) and, of course, D-quackers ( http://www.youtube.com/shedoesn'thaveaYouTube ) for listening to my mixes and giving me schm-AWESOMELY spectacular feedback for this long. MUCH obliged, messieurs. And one madame.

WOWOWOWOWOWOAH. Wait.

You said the word "yawp" in your description.

...

Dead Poets Society? *insert hopeful face here*

[HomeStarRunnerTron]

More than a year and a half later, someone FINALLY gets it. AND NOW I AM FREE TO SOUND MY OWN BARBARIC YAWP.

Thank you, thank you so much. The video description has completely served its true purpose now. (Psst-- if you've never seen it, I have a video of me reciting Meeks' lines from Dead Poets Society from, like, three years ago.)

Has Bill seen this?



[HomeStarRunnerTron]

I don't think he has, but if you search up "Tobolowsky" in the comments, you can hear what Ned Ryerson has to say about this! What godly men both of them are, though, right?

[HomeStarRunnerTron]

*cont.* I hope that some day in the future, I can share films like this-- which I feel taught me the selfless, unconditional, preternatural, undying nature of love, as well as the infinite worth of every day and every life-- with my true starry-eyed Someone. ... ANYWAY! Groundhog Day's an awesome choice, and I hope the date's magnificent. She watched it before?! *grins*

[HomeStarRunnerTron]

Wowzah, monsieur! Congrat'est of elations, first off. *huge thumbs up* Hope ev'rything goes faaar more than swimmingly. Besides some seriously gaze-mazing people (but of course), the things that have changed me as a person are definitely the movies I hold dear to my heart. (... and replay to death!) The relationship of four years that I was in when I made this kind'a sort'a ended with her... dumping me. (Kind'a sort'a?) But we never got a chance to watch this together.

WORK OUT?!?!

[111okami]

Dis kinda made me laugh

[SilverGummiShark]

I have made it a tradition to listen to this at LEAST once on Feb 2nd, along with watching the movie annually. xD

I love this so much.

[goldpikpikcarrots]

happy groundhog dayyyyy :D

[Toxward]

IT'S GROUNDHOG DAAAAAAAAAAAAY!

[goofygobber101]

I am amazed that there is no added base or strings in the back- this is pure remixing. So freaking awesome dude!

@HomeStarRunnerTron sDFHJADGJH.

WHAT?

I must see this. I must.

You are quite welcome, yes. Of course it would be me, the mega-nerd, who discovered this beauteous homage.

[aSingleTearFallen]
