Funny! Barbershop Quartet's Surprising Medley of 'Good Old Days' Music
Ever wonder what people are going to call to mind 20 years from now as music from the "Good Old Days?"
Well, you might get a good example from Main Street, a hilariously talented modern day barbershop quartet based in Orlando, Florida.
Members Roger Ross (Tenor), Tony DeRosa (Lead), Mike McGee (Baritone) and Myron Whittlesey (Bass) perform a musical medley in traditional quartet garb and sound.
But, as you listen, the four men begin to belt out folksy versions of contemporary songs like Britney Spears' "Oops I Did it Again" and 'N Sync's "Bye, Bye, Bye," including dramatic facial expressions, choreography, and lighthearted invocations of current — or mostly current — slang.
Uploaded to YouTube on Oct. 20 by the Barbershop Harmony Society, the video has already garnered more than 420,000 views and about 2,600 likes.
The audience laughs at the frightening foreshadowing of how some of today's music will one day be considered "old."
Enjoy how a throwback musical enterprise pokes fun at the present by gazing into the future.
