Mar 24 2009Kid Plays Mos Eisley Cantina Song On Harp
This is 12 year old Benjamin playing the iconic song from the Mos Eisley Cantina on a harp. He's pretty good. You know, I always wanted a harp growing up but my parents were too cheap to buy me one. So to spite them, I picked up the skin-flute. *TOOT TOOT TOOT TOOTLE TOOT* Whoa, Link, what are you doing here?
Thanks to Tim, who just wants to bang on his drums all day.

TINA TURNER
Well the men come in these places
And the men are all the same
You dont look at their faces
And you dont ask their names
You dont think of them as human
You dont think of them at all
You keep your mind on the money
Keeping your eyes on the wall
Chorus
I'm YOUR PRIVATE DANCER
A DANCER FOR MONEY
ILL DO WHAT YOU WANT ME TO DO
I'm YOUR PRIVATE DANCER
A DANCER FOR MONEY
ANY OLD MUSIC WILL DO
I wanna make a million dollars
I wanna live out by the sea
Have a husband and some children
Yeah I guess I want a family
All the men come in these places
And the men are all the same
You dont look at their faces
And you dont ask their names
Repeat chorus twice
Deutschmarks or dollars
American express will nicely thank you
Let me loosen up your collar
Tell me do you wanna see me do the shimmy again
Repeat chorus

How do you punch someone with a hammer?
15. JosepgRoh - March 24, 2009 10:04 AM
kinda like a donkey punch but using a hammer
16. meme - March 24, 2009 10:05 AM
That was awesome. You rock Benjamin!

I'm actually kind of shocked there's sheet music for that.
Not really sure why, it just seems strange...
18. Barney Stinson - March 24, 2009 10:27 AM
Benjamin: Mommy,Daddy,please tell me why I don´t have any friends!

This kid is a nerd on so many levels. But I'm still impressed. I especially like the self satisfied "now what, bitches" look he gives at the end of his little recital.
20. naas - March 24, 2009 10:53 AM
Nice - now plug that harp into an amp & distort it just a tiny bit
21. Davo - March 24, 2009 11:20 AM
Old school Star Wars PEW PEW PEW!!!
And, I just made love using that as background music.

Wasn't there someone in Salt Lake city who used to play a harp? She got kidnapped but later the kid woke up. Women who play the harp are called harpies.
23. Goncas - March 24, 2009 11:37 AM
If only his parents made him learn to play the guitar. Playing the cantina song on a fender would soooo get him laid...
24. 24bit-whore - March 24, 2009 11:41 AM
Yeah rockin out on a harp doesn't get you too much attention these days, does it? I'd like to see the classroom reaction when he has that thing shipped to school for show and tell.
25. TE - March 24, 2009 11:59 AM
Tempo, little man. Tempo.
26. feckless - March 24, 2009 12:23 PM
what kind of goddamn decoration is a giant fan? Who in the hell ever used a giant fan? If they took the fan wood off and just left the decorated paper on the wall it would look more like art.
27. chainsawarms - March 24, 2009 1:09 PM
little kid has his jazz face down already. He's going to go far.
28. scurl - March 24, 2009 1:25 PM
feh I know a lady who'll play this song on your pubes for $20. big deal.
29. explodyhead - March 24, 2009 2:12 PM
Nice work, a little rushed in some parts, and a little slow in some parts, but good work.
30. Valerie - March 24, 2009 2:12 PM
Holy crap, whata cool little kid.
31. HunnyBear - March 24, 2009 3:57 PM
Bravo! This is pretty impressive, i hear harps are difficult to play, not to mention it sounds pretty damn good too! =)
32. Spith - March 24, 2009 3:58 PM
He can play the sheet music, but you can tell he's not really feeling the Star Wars love. His parents probably won't let him watch the film cos it's not directed by, like, Mozart or something.
33. NastyBedazzler - March 24, 2009 4:22 PM
I saw the kid playing a harp and I was like "OH MY GOD THERE'S A HARP".
I'm not sure if I've ever really seen someone rock out on the harp. And this kid is mad talented for being 12.

FUN FACT: The genre of music that's being played is called jizz.
* The more you know~

I think my favorite part of this, is that you tag it with shit you'll never use again. Ancient Greece?! Nice.
36. Pat - March 24, 2009 5:33 PM
I don't even think John Williams could have done better.
37. mirroredcactus - March 24, 2009 5:40 PM
Give this kid a noble peace prize, purple heart, oscar, a tony, a grammy i don't care what something... he's my new hero!!!
38. Berzerker - March 24, 2009 11:25 PM
Just like Doug !
39. Organicjerk - March 25, 2009 2:56 AM
This music should be used as background music for this site. I had the video playing as a browsed and it was very relaxing...
