Not only did he nail that Whep, but the Scrum Scree was perfectly timed.

[@funnymime123]

The timing of the Scrum Scree (and the Aloopa that comes before it) was one of the most important things we fine-tuned in rehearsal, so I'm glad the work paid off!

[@BorkJerfkin]

we got bwaag, whep, and scrum scree. certified.

[@Lionelhutz0718]

This should have a million views.

[@AuntK68]

Y'all, I can't believe how great this was! Who knew a John Daker tribute band existed? 😂❤

[@aarashsaleh]

Great attention to detail! As someone who was obsessed with the original I salute you!!

[@mrssilencedogood4825]

Bravo!!!! Have seen the original so many times (esp the version with the amazing “lyrics” 😂) and you both have down the voices, the inflections, the mannerisms, exactly how sitting and standing, facial expressions….what a fantastic job. I normally hate clicking on the algorithm but today you tube thank you for it. Passing on to others! 👏 👏 👏

[@victoriavandehoef]

I was so excited to have this come up on my homepage, I watch the original probably 2-3 times a week

[@charlielair8816]

This is fantastic! Great work!

[@getmetothegeek4066]

Absolutely brilliant by both! Well done.

[@MsNatmo]

Listen, this is so good. Awesome job. #Whep

[@animateangus]

[@djacroama]

How do we nominate this for an Oscar?

[@gregchapman3519]

This is fucking perfect.

[@AnnaKin]

[@1970Phoenix]

Nailed it!

[@jitsmapper4438]

Excellent work

[@heresjohnny999]

I can’t breathe 😂

[@musicisthefoodofthesoul]

The captions makes this more confusing lmao it's like I'm unlearning English

[@brendonwillis5438]

Here at 5k views.

[@FlyBoyMT]

LMAO…that was great! The only tip I have is that the piano player here is too good haha, the tempo is steady but in the actual video, she’s kind of all over the place and the tempos get faster and faster which is why John Daker couldn’t really follow along all that well haha

[@A-Gut-of-the-Past]

bwagggg 2.0

[@neil12011]

Is it weird that this sort of homage makes me feel like I’m not alone in my weird humor? This is just perfect.

[@grymjaw]

You’re not alone brother. My stomachs hurts from laughing so much. I watch the original once a month at least

[@bobkemp5882]

He forgot the eyebrow raise at "You're in LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE." Otherwise, spot on. :-)

[@hughmacdonald7872]

lol, true

[@mayawagnermusic]

This is a high quality remake, I don't think I've ever seen such a good remake.

[@annalisamandell3581]

YOU TWO KILLED THIS!!!! I was cracking up soo hard!!!!!!!! You won the internet…

[@brekedekdang39]

Wow. Just wow. The fact you took the time to transcribe this and perform it just as John did, is a tribute to the greatness of John Daker. I especially liked the personal touch at the end, with the held note. Mr. Daker would have been proud if he could only see this. 👏

[@Delizaki]

Whep😂

[@ProfessionalMusicPartners]

It’s good to see young performers keeping classics alive 🫠

[@ferallibrarian]

HOW do you only have 5000 views

[@19spearking93]

I searched for the John Daker video a week ago because of Easter and discovered this gem in the process. Everything about this is great

[@c_wren_d5733]

Wow, this is a deep cut. I love it!

[@everyonehatesfrauditors765]

Kudos - respect to the Legend that is John Daker! Srum Scree!

[@kenster3554]

That tastelessly hammered augmented V chord at 0:39! 🤣😂

[@alexherbst9477]

I've watched the original video more times than I care to say, your version had me cracking up! Bravo!

[@TheXTVproductions]

Double take on the 20th century fox intro.

[@flexor212000]

"Whep"

[@NonmetalAlkali]

Even John's facial expressions are spot-on. Fantastic!

[@orfulmeany]

Very well done! You're both dead-nuts on! Superb piano playing and vocals! Love it! dits, Mr. Moraayyeee!

[@RoscoeMcGillicuddy]

Absolute perfection!

[@BioHazard634]

This is actually incredible. Awesome stuff, great tribute to a legend, RIP John Daker.

[@annoyingbstard9407]

I can’t tell you how relieved I am you didn’t forget the all important “Bing.”

[@Joe-gq2kv]

Now THIS sounds like a song that's very pawpulur nowadayz.

[@Tonixman]

How can I like this video 7 times? Certified JohnDaker classic!

[@cyclos12]
