Talent Show Part II


Here is my latest parody - "We Are the Very Model of a Modern Mormon Family" based on the well known "I Am the Very Model of a Modern Major General" from Gilbert and Sullivan's Pirates of Penzance. 

Though the original song is very fast and it would have been fun to sing the whole thing that way, it wasn't very practical when I wanted the audience to understand the words. Daron was kind enough to put in subtitles on the video. We were a little off occasionally, but not too bad considering this was literally the first time we all sang it together. Scheduling conflicts and all that...

Anyway, I had a lot of fun writing it and putting it together. I hope you enjoy it, too!

You'll have to double click on the video to make it full screen or you'll miss the entire side of the stage!
