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

2nd – TOP-RIGHT: Tenor 2
3rd – BOTTOM-LEFT: Baritone
4th – BOTTOM-RIGHT: Bass
