Darth Vader Sings "Mna Mna"!

Tuesday, February 12, 2008 - 09:26 PM

This YouTube video had me smilin' today. If you're a huge nerd like me, I think you'll like it.

Make sure you stick around for the little endcap. It's worth a chuckle all on it's own.

Wondering where the music comes from? If you hadn't seen it before...it's from one of the funniest Muppet sketches ever.

The endcap made the video. Season One Show One of the Muppet Show DVD collection is where you can find the original off-line. Not only am I wondering what we are calling this decade...I've settled for 'Bob'.... but we still haven't gotten our flying cars yet. I was promised by every sci-fi show growing up that the 21st century would have flying cars ding dang it.

OhmyGod, Awesome. That had me laughing out loud at the office. That song is so addictive anyway but with Vader...priceless.

Also Dave, I say "boo" too. Its like the music charts for the last 10 years. Every year had some significant moment until '99, when they just started puting $$$.

PS. - Flaco's face is hilarious in the last pannel. "FUMP".

I must agree. With Vader: Priceless. I'll be singing this all day.

On an inconsequential note, when I was watching the original muppet sketch, the recording was from Swedish television. Though you'd want to know, being such an umlaut/Ikea fan, Dave.

In Response to Bjorn (#40890):

Heh heh, absolutely brilliant! This is also a good one. Its the Top 10 sounds of Star Wars.

Should I mention that "Mna Mna" was originally from the soundtrack to an 60s Italian *cough cough* "adult edutainment" (winkwink nudgenudge) film? And that the Muppets version is the second (known) cover of the track?

Just one of those strange facts that stick in my head. (But no, sorry, don't know the name of the film... or who did the other cover... and if I'm wrong, blame the Australian music quiz show "Spicks and Specks"!)

Cheers from Oz.
