John Williams (born February 8, 1932) is an American composer, conductor and pianist. In a career that spans six decades, Williams has composed many of the most famous film scores in history, including all but one of Steven Spielberg's feature films, Star Wars, Superman, Jaws, E.T., Born on the Fourth of July, Harry Potter, and more.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
"Is that really you singing?"
No. Sorry to disappoint you, but all 4 beautiful voices belong to the men from Moosebutter. They are a professional a cappella comedy group from Utah, and were kind enough to assist me in the making of this video. Check them out and hear more hilariously awesome songs at http://www.moosebutter.com
"What order did you film the video clips in?"
I don't know why so many people ask this, but I've been getting it a lot. I filmed them from highest to lowest, vocally:
1st - TOP-LEFT: Tenor 1
2nd - TOP-RIGHT: Tenor 2
3rd - BOTTOM-LEFT: Baritone
4th - BOTTOM-RIGHT: Bass
"Where did you get the 'Player' shirt?"
These shirts were given out by Google at a YouTube Gathering in Toronto, Canada on August 8th, 2008. I've been told only 300 were made for the event, however that doesn't mean more won't show up in the future. I have no idea where you could get one. Sorry!
"Are you going to make another one of these?"
Yes, actually. Moosebutter and I are working on all kinds of projects together now. Subscribe so you don't miss out!

 | Emilio Calatayud Pérez - Lección Magistral (2)
Tags: lección, magistral
Description:
Emilio Calatayud Pérez es un campechano Juez de Menores de Granada. Con un verbo demoledor, este padre de familia da una lección magistral sobre lo que implica tener hijos. No cometas el error de no ver este vídeo.
Emilio Calatayud Pérez (Ciudad Real, 22 de diciembre de 1955) es un magistrado español, juez de menores de Granada conocido por sus sentencias ejemplares.
Sus sentencias educativas han bajado la delincuencia en Granada y han aumentado el número de menores que no reinciden en el delito. En casi 20 años, el «padrazo» ha juzgado a más de 10.000 jóvenes a los que, siempre que puede, da esa segunda oportunidad que todos alguna vez hemos necesitado.
Según el propio Emilio:
" Mi mayor satisfacción es que ahora estén aquí, sentados a mi lado, rehabilitados, contentos con sus nuevas vidas. ¿Cuándo un juez se encuentra así, amigablemente, como yo hoy, con tres de sus antiguos condenados?» Emilio Calatayud lo dice con auténtico orgullo. Junto a él, Jesús Antonio, Enrique y Federico sonríen a quien todos en Granada conocen también como el «padrazo», el juez de Menores más conocido de España, aquél de las condenas ejemplares que en cada chaval jamás ve a un mero «delincuente», sino a «un joven que cometió un delito» y, aun más, a una víctima de un sistema social que demuestra fracasar cada mañana en la que él vuelve a condenar a un crío. Ante esa instancia, su desafío es claro: rehabilitar sin encerrar a quienes han delinquido, trabajar con ellos en el mismo entorno en el que cometieron sus faltas. Lleva 17 años intentándolo, e incluso lográndolo: el 82 por ciento de los menores que cumplen condenas en el régimen de medio abierto --libertad vigilada y prestación de servicios al beneficio de la comunidad-- no reincide en el delito. «Hoy ya evitamos incluso que un 70 por ciento de los menores vaya en un futuro a prisión --explica--, un gran logro de los profesionales que trabajan conmigo y de los que yo soy sólo la cabeza más visible."

I've taken my hyperactive editing style a step further! Hope you'll enjoy it!
If you want to download the audio from this video, go to
http://www11.nrk.no/urort/user/?id=36781
It's a norwegian page where I uploaded some of my music. (Lytt = Listen to, Last ned = Download)
Oh shit, I forgot to put this in the video, and now it's too late to change it:
Thanks to my friend Mattis for letting me borrow the drum kit. Also thanks to the person letting me use her piano, but she didn't want her name here :P
And now; to you people saying I'm ripping off Michel Gondry: I've seen his video with the drumkit called "Drumb and Drumber". It's here on youtube somewhere. His video and my video are different because of one very important detail: Gondy filmed himself doing drumming sequences and LOOPED them, while I hit each drum and piano chord seperately and edited them together. This is a very big difference if you have any idea about video editing. Actually, there is a short sequence of 5 sec where he does cut the beat, but I didn't notice this until recently, which makes me an idiot. But I still don't think it's a rip off, only similar. SO one question to you guys: If I write a song which includes the words "love" and "tight", am I ripping off The Beatles?? :P I met Michel Gondry in Milan, Italy and asked him. He didn't really give me a clear answer, but it seemed like he thought so. Either that or he didn't like my clothes. Lol.
