If you read up on some of Mozart's more "obscure" (and less mainstream) works, you would realize that this is totally something he would have composed and written himself.

Ok narmale, since you’re a genius, then explain why such an orchestra for Bach?<br>It’s pretty stupid.

It’s pretty stupid.

@narmale You sound like you have a very high IQ

@Dorohedoro <br>damn... this thread blew up... wtf is wrong will you all?

damn... this thread blew up... wtf is wrong will you all?

@narmale If you ever need an autism diagnosis, just show them this conversation.

@Barnaclebeard yes, they sound nothing alike

@narmale Jesus Christ, is it so hard to accept that maybe OP understood that this was Bach but wanted to make a comment on Mozart?!

There is so much hostility in this comment section because someone got a fact wrong on a song about thick asses. This is why some people need their internet access revoked lol

@Firstname Lastname *says something retarded *
*gets called out on being stupid *
*uh well uhm context is relative *

@narmale seriously, what the school had been teaching? cant even be reasoned.

@narmaleI think they were just using Mozart as an example of a classical composer

@DumKump yes, shame all arguments that aren't the most widely accepted. Ratioed and gave him the L. Very smart. He has smol pp because he agrees with people who I don't and has the audaicty to say that the groupthink might be wrong. Groupthink is never wrong. That guy is not thinking like the group because he wants attention. Smol pp gets no girls

@Firstname Lastname no, it's just stupid. The op obviously made a mistake. Because Mazart once wrote a rude song, he would've written and composed a Bach peice that already existed, but made rude lyrics? You can't compose something that already exists.

@Christopher Stein …and I feel castrated!

@Christopher Stein i cant live enough lifetimes for that much butthurt 😆😆😆😆

@narmale You have upset the hord. Punishment will not be determinated by reason but the amount of suffering they feel you have caused them.

Context is relative. But to most people familiar with classical music, bringing up Mozart when imagining a more vulgar Bach is quite intuitive.

@BizarreJoe reading comprehension means: context

Mozart wasn't contextual to this song, Bach would have been... so dont try to explain context or comprehension to me when you dont even get it

@narmale get some reading comprehension. he's not saying it is Mozart, he's talking about one of Mozart's infamous joke songs "Leck mich im Arsch". Because he was known for doing silly shit like this song. Bach wasn't.

Read the letters to his wife. You will be amazed at the downright porn in there lol

Classical composers were human, all of them had something like that hidden somewhere because everyone is horny at some point


It took 300 years to create this masterpiece.

This comment is a masterpiece, I mean assterpiece

UNESCO world heritage ain’t got nothing on this. This is the pinnacle of human civilization.

Damn, really took them 300 years to make one song, that is nuts

The orginal version of Baby Got Back use to upset me. Girls in Jr. High would sing it to make fun of my big butt. I would go home crying every day.


As a classical musician myself, I laughed again and again, this is so on point. Thanks you, that was one of the most unexpected "covers" of this song...

@There I Ruined It Did you do the vocal? It was wonderful - and as a former classical singer, I can tell it was far from easy!

@There I Ruined It I also noticed you used the recording of Bernstein in Tchaik 4, saw the wierd circle thing he did with his arms and instantly recognized it, wonderful edit

Thank you! My main instrument is the violin (followed closely by the zippy siren whistle.)


I've always said that nobody will be able to do music like Weird Al. <br>I'm now rethinking that statement.

I've always said that nobody will be able to do music like Weird Al.
I'm now rethinking that statement.

Weird Al has stated that the proliferation of really, really good online artists doing parodies is behind his decision to stop recording full-length albums.

Weird Al is great at writing parodies but so is comedian Tim Hawkins who  sings better than Weird Al, check out "50 Ways to Please Your Mother". Also I'm not a professional musician but I've written several parodies, it's not as hard as it seems.


0:15 That whistle is becoming the signature of the channel

@MrQuequito Just call Weird all and ask what it is.

Is that considered a woodwind instrument?

@MrQuequito that is called a Siren whistle.

@D A that is NOT a slide whistle. A slide whistle is completely different than that. This whistle is called a Siren whistle.

@MrQuequito It's a slide whistle. And the clip is actually from this lovely gentlemen that shows off old toys and trinkets https://www.youtube.com/user/henders007

What is the name of that kind of whistle?


Something about classical music with hip hop/rap lyrics just hits right.

Sir mix-a-lot did a performance with the Seattle classical orchestra.


Clearly he was having more fun with this one than most. He did way more of the song than he normally does


@1:05 this is pure editing gold. How you found this clip and that you thought to put it in the exact perfect spot is 👏👏👏🤙


Leonard Berinstein and the percussionist playing the whistle just sealed the deal!


Anyone see the timpani player lose his mallet at 1:05 ? Hysterical!

Accidentally hit another player he had! 😆

Actually, it's a bass drum mallet, making it even more hilarious.

It's not just him losing it, which is already funny, but the fact that the flying mallet takes out another percussionist XD


He did perform this in front of an orchestra one time. Didn't sound quite this hilarious but it was awesome.


What I mean when I tell people I like classical music.


Mozart would've been proud of you for making this.


I lost it at the flying drum stick. Bravo maestro bravo👏


"If only ALL classical music could be like this!" - Leornard Bernstein.


This is definitely not ruining it. This is epic!


I love Leonard Bernstein, and after having read a bit about him, I think he’d appreciate this very much 💀


I am so impressed by your accuracy when translating Nessun Dorma- Turandot, I've been brought to tears.  Bless you, god bless you.


This is lovely.  I think Bach would have enjoyed the collab.


Leonard Bernstein 300% approves of this message.


That slide whistle gives this a Spike Jonze touch!👌


This is better than it has any right to be. 😂


The cutaway of Denzel!!!  😂  This is masterful.


Well, this isn't by the famous JS Bach, but rather his son, CPE bach (it's the opening of his flute concerto in A major). That doesn't mean it's not friggin' awesome!


Your stuff is awesome! 👍😎<br>Love the Denzel bit in this one! 🤘😆

Your stuff is awesome! 👍😎
Love the Denzel bit in this one! 🤘😆


Good to see Tim from grand illusions make an appearance on whistle. As someone who loves to see clever new uses for things, I like to think he'd love this video.


Anyone who has studied Bernstein will confirm that Lenny would have LOVED this!!!!!


And the hits just keep on coming! You need to get paid top dollar for such quality content!


I'm lost for words... just inspired. If you spent 10 years working on this it was still worth it.


1:05 spilled my drink. wasn't expecting that.

@Torsten T i think it killed her too 😆😆😆😆

0:55 was already a nice addon, but 1:05 killed it. ^^


Exceptional work ! Thank you for sharing this with us here on YouTube. Best Wishes - John


That tympanist, accidentally knocking out the percussionist next to him.... just about fell off my damn chair laughing.


To be fair, Mozart would have found this hilarious!


I think you should do 'Never Gonna Give You Up' as a Russian folk song. Katayusha/Kalinka-esque

He has, sort of, in a way... you'll just have to find it. It'll show up when you least expect it ;)


You just earned yourself a subscriber, well done sir.

Seconded. I came here from the Webby nominations, BTW.


A sophisticated and beautiful romantic piece.


The pyramids, the statue of Zeus at Olympia, the Great Wall of China….all unparalleled legendary creations by man. This video is finer than them all. Kudos to you sir, kudos.


I straight up lost it when the timpani came in 😂


Mozart would approve. He'd do his own version.


Not Bach but necessary for the alliteration!   Splendid work!


Much more like Mozart, but brilliant nonetheless.


Superior to Sir Mix-a-Lot. Love it! Thank you!!


@There I Ruined It I. Hate. It.

But I don't


Shit, there's a video of Sir Mix A lot actually performing with a live orchestra. It all makes sense since he has been knighted.


It's modern opera. 🤯 Maybe this is what's needed to bring opera to a younger generation?


This isn't just art - It's <b>Ahrrrrt.</b>


Why do I kind of like this better than the original Baby Got Back


@ 1:05  I hope she was ok but that moment was funny AF 😂
Subscribed for the Sense of Humor ! 🤣


Ok I didn’t expect to stay until the end of this video but I did. Holy… You’re a genius.


@There I Ruined It Seriously this shit was the Brahms and it Strauses me out that there are not more views.


This one is even better than the original! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣


The conductor around the 0:22 mark doing a frantic standing doggy is just too much! Goddamn! 😂😂


great a new song stuck in my head thanks


When do we get an audio download link, I wanna use this as my ringtone.


This is not a ruin this awesome and hilarious, I'm in stitches 😂


Found the original: Cello Concerto in A major, H.439 Wq 172


1:05 love how the drummer in the back hit a lady next to him


I mean, Mozart did write songs about skat so it's not impossible


Hahah! As a violinist, this would be the pinnacle of my brief YouTuber existence.


we should preform this at an ochrestra concert


This is almost as good as the Gilbert and Sullivan version of this. Almost.


I laughed my head off when the piccolo wheeeeeeees


0:50 and 0:56 cause me to laugh to myself randomly throughout the day. Thank god for WFH


1:05. I just noticed that he nailed her in the head.


One of your best!  (I say this every time) but I mean it!


Sir Mix A lot actually did this with the Seattle Symphony.


Yesssss Lenny, you CONDUCT that orchestra!


I actually think that Bernstein would laugh at this.


He even got the cough you hear before and between the piece


finally, the "Sir" title seems appropriate for Mr. Mix-A-lot


If you know Mozart, you know he loved butts and farts, he would love this.


Denzel Washington feelin it is the icing of this epic cake

Whenever I see him cracking up I lose it 🤣🤣🤣


The great Bernstein / mix-a-lot collaboration


I liked this before i watched it. The title alone deserves everything good.


considering that Sir Mix-A-Lot has performed with the Seattle Symphony this really isn't that much of a stretch.


The vibe is more Mozart meets Gilbert and Sullivan. That said, it's still a glorious mess!

Edit: I was on the wrong Bach.


Mozart would approve. I mean that seriously.


Reminds me of the Gilbert and Sullivan version I've watched/listened to a few times


I feel like this must have been inspired by the line about Fry and his “classical music” on Futurama


Splendid! <br>This is they new anthem of Antarctica

Splendid!
This is they new anthem of Antarctica


This should be the theme song to 90 Day Fiance.


1) That ‘horny’ was corny; got a snort.<br>2) The flying drumstick got the laugh.

2) The flying drumstick got the laugh.


This is so bad I like it. Fantastic Grand Illusions reference too! I had never seen the music video before, and that really ruined it for me.


The Grand Illusions crossover we didn't know we needed


Reminds me of the Futurama Episode where Fry found out he was rich and he was listening to the original version and Leela told him to stop listening to Classical music. LOL.                    And the Simpsons episode with Cypress Hill and the London Philharmonic Orchestra.


Sir Mix-a-Lot has actually performed the song with the Seattle Symphony (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w59e20ijOpE), but this actually works as classical music.


Hell yeah @ Denzel laughing in the audience


Sounds more like Mozart's style, but great regardless 😄

No I think the song is actually by Sebastian Bach but I forgot which one it was


Closer to Haydn then Bach, but yes. Very yes.

@There I Ruined It Oh it's CPE, fair play! You said it's Bach and you didn't lie, you just didn't say which one :-)

It’s the cello concerto from Bach’s son actually...though heavily chopped up to fit the song :)


Well done, sir….I hate you now…but oddly attracted to it. Okay, I’ll subscribe.


I recently subscribed to your channel after hearing about it on a podcast called Is We Dumb. I'm so glad I did.

@There I Ruined It I absolutely love the podcast. I listen in the morning. Gotta laugh before work. Now I'm watching your videos too.

Thank you! I just looked up the podcast and found the mention - super cool!


I was always supportive of Bernstein's chicks


I think followers of this channel should be known as whistlers


You should have hired an opera singer for this, it would've sounded so much better than it already does.


No where near enough harpsichord for it to be considered Bach. Just saying...


There is a full orchestral version of this song on youtube


Awesome! As an aside I find the 90's interpretation of "back" to be a very healthy interpretation judging by the women in Sir Mix-A-Lot's video. Now, it's two or threefold the "back". Usually of the diabetic or pre-diabetic variety. How times change.


I, too, appreciate a superior posterior.  My honesty is thus verified.

Mix A Lot should run for office.  Politician who does not lie.


Hah, yes - I deliberately lined that up with "I wanna get wit ya" :)


They really had to bring Tim into this didn't they?!


I get the wordplay in the title, but the lyricism is more akin to Mozart...

And also...

- Great intro, uh?

- They nicked it from Marvin Gaye.

- He nicked it from Bach!


What's funny about the original BGB video dancers is that compared to todays standards-<br>They don't got back.

What's funny about the original BGB video dancers is that compared to todays standards-
They don't got back.


In what universe THIS is called "ruined"? NO


I doubt anyone will see this but what Bach piece is this?

I'm here for you, Alicia. It's the Cello Concerto in A Major from C.P.E. Bach (J.S. Bach's son)...albeit chopped up to hell to fit the song :)


Do something with the song "it's hard out here for a pimp" from Hustle + Flow.


OMG... I need bleach for my ears. Loved it.


Babe your channel is breaking my brain please don't stop


"I have a structured settlement and I need cash now"


we need a chopin dubstep, or skrillex liszt


Never ever ever ever never don't not use a slide whistle.


LOL! If this isn't the official song of all Saltine Americans during fun Friday at the office I don't know what is.


AHAHAHAHA the girl knocked out with the mallet 😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆


you got the whistle sound from grandillusions? :O I love Tim!


It's a more refined version of this meme that came about a few years ago where the Black Eyed Peas were jamming to Dvorak.  Here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q93wAypcCY8  Hilarious work as always.


Now the original sounds wrong.<br>Totally sharing your channel

Now the original sounds wrong.
Totally sharing your channel


Did you know this exists? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w59e20ijOpE He sang with the Seattle Symphony.


Mozart would approve<br>Bach i don't think so

Mozart would approve
Bach i don't think so


At 0:30, the lyric “horny” is replaced by actual horns!


I wonder. Did he leave out the line “My Anaconda Don’t want none unless you got buns hun” because it didn’t fit? Or was it because he was saving it for later video?


i cant decide on whether he ruined batch or sir mix alot  .. or both


Maybe you could do Biggie - Gimme The LUTE


sir mix a lot did do an orchestrial version


What is the name of the instrument un the minute 0:15 pleaseeeee!!!


"Well I do say! When it comes to the fairer sex, the periodical 'Cosmopolitan' has little to do with my selection."
'Thirty-six, twenty-four, thirty-six?"
"....well, perhaps if she were five foot three."


<b>sips tea</b> ... indubitably, old chap


Lol.  You're giving Richard Cheese a run for his money.


This reminded me of the video that Sir Mix-a-Lot did with the Seattle Symphony. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w59e20ijOpE

Bernstein didn't have any ladies from the audience as backup dancers.


Should've been Mozart - Bach never wrote a canon titled "Lick me in the arse", Mozart did though :D.


Oh man... it was all fun and games until you brought Leonard to the mix... how dare you sir.....

Are you kidding? He would have laughed his butt off.

I know. I love Mr. Bernstein and he didn’t deserve this.


Hey was that Grand Illusions? That was a fun surprise!


There, you've ruined it. I hope you're proud, cause it hurts so good.


Haha excellent, though several years after Sir-Mix-a-Lot ACTUALLY did this

https://youtu.be/w59e20ijOpE


Admit it.  You did this whole thing just to use the title:  Baby Got Bach.


Forgive a repeated comment, but I'm not seeing my first and I'm truly needy: when does your full-album Kickstarter launch?


Was that Tim from GrandIllusions on slide whistle?


Bro BRO THAT ZIP WHISTLE WAS TIM FROM
GRAND ILLUSIONS!? YOU
 FOR REAL JUST SNUCK THAT IN THERE?


Hahahahaha! Brilliant. When you lived in the ghetto but won the lottery and moved to a rich neighborhood and try to fit in with the neighbors.


Your voice is too white for that, but the ideas definetly funny xD


Ah yes, My Significant Other Has Possession Of Thickness Located Behind The Exterior Of Their Body


High waist also was in fashion in the '90s?S?


Oh. My. God. Rebecca, did thou notice her bustle?


I saw you sneak Tim in there at 0:15. ;)


Looks like tchaik 5 with New York Phil on vid.


@0:15 I know that guy.
 that's Tim from Grand Illusions on yt. Lol


Verily, I do enjoy stout bottoms, and were't that I did attempt to attest contrarywise, the falsehood shouldst die upon my lips. Ye comrades of mine own kilt, abjure not, for ye be unable to abjure, that whensoever a wench doth approacheth nigh, being characterized by a diminutive girth while even at the same time possessing about her own personage a rotund, corpulent particular being displayed, thou doth becometh sprung.

@Gary Suarez My serpent covets thee not, if thy posterior be naught!

Forsooth, thine words are truth!
Honey'd to slake the thirst and true to the ear as a clavier's good temper!
Zounds that one might think a stacked arse and g-string be out of bounds
I say there nay, and the sight of them curves doth sweetly rest
A near centerly blossom in the cornucopia that is the curvaceous
And stacked for whose gaze hath
Chosen to find it's wearied resting...
(You got the elocutions on lock, G)

@Rannsaiche The end times are nigh and approaching. 'Tis well, says I.

@Scott Lutz You Sir are a talent and a treasure! Do continue!

Ian Tait Thanks! I actually wrote that 12 years ago lol. I was working at a renaissance faire, and one of the directors gave us the assignment to translate a famous song into Elizabethan English as a dialect exercise. I did the first part of baby of back (just the part you see above), and I did the entirety of End of the World As We Know It by REM. That one was interesting because I had to find the 16th century equivalent of the real people mentioned in that song.

Like the part that goes:
"Leonid Brezhnev Lenny Bruce, and Lester bangs",
I translated to:
"Ivan the Terrible, licensed fool, and Francis Meres"


this is the whitest thing i've seen in a while


Not too far off reality:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w59e20ijOpE&t=148s&ab_channel=SeattleSymphony


The irony is all of those butts are considered flat as hell now 😂😂😂


Just listen to Bach's "lick me in the arse" and you'll add a whole new level to this masterpiece.


That is what a call true.......

Cl  ass

That is what a call true.......

Cl  ass


Nothing will ever beat the version that is still found on YouTube where he asks all these pig-ugly women (Seattle with Seattle Symphony Orch. in background) to dance to his song. One in particular, is so ungodly awkward you have to feel sorry for her. You'll know the one I'm talking about when you see it.


You know hoes like diameter. Table be round


When your high class but still like your ladies thicc


Funny thing... Mix already performed Baby Got Back with the Seattle Symphony about 8 years ago:
https://youtu.be/w59e20ijOpE


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w59e20ijOpE different version same idea


you are a monster. Take my thumbs up and subscription you heretic >:(


Okay. You did it. You finally ruined something beyond repair. Congratulations. Thanks, I FUCKING HATE IT


What's funny, is that he ACTUALLY performed this song with a live orchestra once.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w59e20ijOpE

And had a whole chorus line of female audience members as backup dancers!

Also, Joe Nichols covered it with Sir Mix A Lot showing up in the video. Worth watching once for the facial expressions. But ONLY once.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gwti7-cEHh8

Unbelievable. Art imitating life imitating art. Or Life imitating art imitating life?
