I am the very model of a popular YouTube auteur

Edit: Just to try and dispel some confusion. I am not, nor have I ever been lonelygirl15

A parody of the classic Gilbert & Sullivan song 'Modern Major General', adapted to be about LonelyGirl15

This was an experiment to try and teach myself premiere. I think it came out pretty good; any comments would be greatly appreciated. Enjoy.

Oh, and I am well aware that my singing is awful. In fact when I was cast in a high school musical my role was quickly rewritten so that my character would randomly leave the stage right before any musical number.

good idea but DESTROYED by terrible execution of lyrics! this deserved far better vocals and timing

[onerichie]

I think most people are aware of that, the reason people are saying it sucks is that there are far too many syllables to most of the lines which means it doesnt fit the original tune.

I for one understand what the video was meant for, so therefor I have to give you some applause. I understand that this video was made five years ago, but still it was quite humorous. I mean, if you were this good at editing five years ago I'm curious about how good you are now. Also, props for the lyrics. They were innovative and funny (not perfect, but better than what I or most anyone else who comments on this video could do).

This is obviously stylistic suck, but the major general's song is something that should have never have this particular trope applied to it.

this is so horrible it's entertaining

[vanessaLoveeful]

my hands smell like cucumber and melon because I used some soap that smelled like that.

I think you're being a little harsh. The execution could use a lot of work, but the idea is great, the editing is nice and it actually got me hooked on lonelygirl15's videos. :) Nice job.
