Squeak, Rattle and Roll | Feat.

[@SootyWill]

Hello again folks! Hope you’re ready for another parody song - this is “Squeak, Rattle and Roll,” based on the Season 8 episode of the same name. I want to give a HUGE shoutout to Jack, AKA @LittleOwl2003 for recording the vocals for this song! I found this one very difficult to sing myself, but Jack handled it no problem and gave me several versions of his vocals to pick from - all of which were excellent! Check out @LittleOwl2003 for tons of reaction videos, music videos, voice impressions, and his own parody songs on lots of franchises! www.youtube.com/@LittleOwl2003/videos If you’d like to watch my other parody music videos, featuring more Thomas & Friends, Zootopia, Looney Tunes, The Bad Guys, Back To The Future, and Balto, you can visit this playlist: kzbin.info/aero/PLSND9odXrDebPeX__HkTJQpV3WtfAtzOq Finally, come back next Saturday for ANOTHER parody song! See you again very soon! -Sooty Will (and Gordon)

[@fairlyoddenginecreations]

I love the usage of the sound effects here! The first chorus is comprised of only squeaks, the second contains the rattling noise, and the final verse consists of grand, faultless puffing showing that Gordon is back on his own non-existent feet. Really goes to show how sound effects can tell a story in of itself. Great work as always, Sooty!

[@SootyWill]

Thanks so much for noticing! I threw in those sound effects last minute, so I'm glad they turned out well haha. So glad you liked it! LittleOwl did a great job and I had a lot of fun putting it together. :)

[@TheGingerEngine]

Yet another banger of a parody my friend. Huge congratulations to both you and Little Owl VA for another excellent collaboration. You just do great stuff, very proud of you ☺️🚂🚃

[@SootyWill]

Aw thanks so much Andrew! So glad you liked it. I had a lot of fun figuring out the lyrics and editing the video, and LittleOwl totally sold it with his great performance. :)

"I Say Squeak, Rattle and Roll!" Jokes aside, this is a BANGER song! LittleOwl did a great job on this! Knowing that this is my favorite HiT episode, i knew i would really much love it. Cheers! And keep up the marvelous work.

[@SootyWill]

Aw thanks so much! Means a lot knowing it's one of your favorite episodes. And yes! LittleOwl totally delivered with the vocals! :)

[@thesudriana016]

I finally had the time to watch this and I gotta say, this is another grand parody of one song who's title was used as inspiration in a certain fan-favorite S8 episode! Little Owl did a brilliant job with the vocals! I also love the edit of the Express coaches.

[@SootyWill]

Thank you so much! It was a challenge to fit the plot into so few verses, but a lot of fun! LittleOwl totally brought the whole song together - couldn't have done it without him! And thanks for noticing the coach edits! I appreciate that you mentioned them! :)

[@therenamonstan]

You can't imagine how long I've been waiting for something like this. And I must say, it was worth the wait! Plus, Squeak, Rattle, and Roll is one of my guilty pleasure episodes.

[@SootyWill]

Thank so much! So glad you liked it. Couldn't have done it without LittleOwl. And I have to admit, this episode's grown on me moreso having made this video haha

[@jeremiahsisaias8677]

2 music videos in 2 Saturdays! This feels like Johnny B Goode. "Squeak, rattle and roll" makes me feel like that Diesel is predicing Gordon's future considering in "Tenders for Henry" Gordon found out that his family except for Flying Scotsman are all dead.

[@SootyWill]

Thanks so much! And make that 4 music videos! I made a Back To The Future MV two weeks ago, and another Thomas one is coming out next Saturday! Johnny B Goode was also first written in the 50s, so that would make sense.

[@CraneProductions27]

That was a wicked song. It really was catchy and it works brilliantly. Well done to #LittleOwl2003 for his superb performance 👏😀.

[@SootyWill]

Aw thanks! It was a challenge to fit the story into the lyrics, so I'm glad you liked it. And yes! LittleOwl totally brought it all together with his great performance. :)

[@ashleygayming]

I know I said this with your last video, but this does feel like something ripped straight out of Thomas. It has that classic charm which i cant really put into words. The singing is fantastic, and I love that transition between the normal singing voice and Topham's voice. So much care and effort was put into this. 10/10

[@SootyWill]

Aw thank you so much! I spent a lot of time on the on-screen lyrics and music video, so I’m glad they turned out! LittleOwl totally blew me away too - that bit with Sir Topham Hatt was his idea So glad you liked it!

[@bigbuffersproductions]

What a banger I remember when I was little I would sing a tune like this in my head not as good as this but it was focused around the words speak rattle and roll lol I believe i had just watched the episode and kept playing the words in my little head idk just somthing I thought I would share

[@SootyWill]

Thanks! And that’s so cool that you remember that! Love hearing those kinds of things. Thanks for watching :)

[@Walker443]

This song brings back memories, particularly to another song about a certain little traction engine that ran away. But geez what a nostalgia trip that was. 👌

[@SootyWill]

Thanks so much! I was definitely inspired by Little Engine Who Ran Away and Don't Judge a Book, so I'm glad that came across. :)

[@Walker443]

@@SootyWill then this makes me ask, was your one song you did a year ago called “pumping iron” related or taken any inspiration from “Rolling Stock” part of the starlight express album preformed by Andrew Lloyd Webber?

[@SootyWill]

@@Walker443 Oh! “Pumping Iron” was just taken straight from the Starlight Express show. I didn’t rewrite anything - it’s just an ordinary music video

[@Walker443]

@@SootyWill knew it sounded so familiar!

[@giulianodervelociraptorder734]

Even if the episode has a few flaws. For example, why Gordon believes in Diesl's words even though Sir Topham Hatt said in "Tender Engines" that he doesn't want to scrap any of his locomotives. It was nice to see Gordon's determination as he got the children to the finish line. And the close-ups of Gordon's wheels are great.

[@SootyWill]

Thank you so much! It was a challenge to fit the story in only a few verses, so thanks for noticing! LittleOwl did a great job selling the lyrics. And that's not a bad idea! Maybe I'll post a tweet that goes more in-depth, but basically I cut up each line of text to recolor each word yellow, one by one. Then I keyframed the steamcloud onto every single syllable in time with LittleOwl's vocals.

[@MrDankEngine1999]

The lyrics must’ve been challenging to edit

[@SootyWill]

A little bit haha! There are only a handful of lines in the original song, and most of them repeat, so I really had to narrow down the main beats the story. It was a fun challenge though, and I'm quite happy with the rhymes that match the original. :)
