- 12/22/2015 Update: If you are seeing ads with this video, please note that I am not making any money off of it. BMG Rights Management, EMI Music Publishing, and others have claimed copyright on this video, even though it is a parody that only utilizes the melody from Black Eyed Pea's "I Gotta Feeling." The new lyrics (that I wrote) transform the pop song into one that educates students on cellular respiration, and thus, the video should now fall under fair use, as far as I understand. I have no desire to make money off of this video. It is a not-for-profit educational video. I only want people to learn. However, as a simple high school teacher, I don't really have the time or money to fight the copyright claim, and I don't want the video removed or my youtube account banned. Nevertheless, I can take a few minutes to write this update and let people know that the music companies are monetizing these videos (which aren't even viral). #WTFU
A song about Cellular Respiration, based on Black Eyed Pea's "I Gotta Feeling."
Lyrics written by, song performed by, and Powerpoint slide show done by a simple high school science teacher named Mr. Hsu.
mp3 available (finally):
c3po.barnesos.net/~wakkonat/sh...
This song and video have been made solely for educational purposes. Its level of depth and detail into the process of cellular respiration are aimed at High School Honors Biology students (at least the ones I teach). If you find any errors or omissions (i.e. I didn't mention 1,3-biphosphoglycerate), this is due to the fact that I'm not teaching AP Biology or college-level Biology AND I'm being constrained by describing such a complex biochemical process through a fairly recent pop song with incredibly repetitive lyrics.
I actually performed this song for my students in class the day before our cellular respiration test. If you're lucky, you might find a video of such a live performance somewhere in the vast internet (quite a few of them were recording me singing it in class, after all). This video is a result of me taking a simple digital camera and aiming it at my computer to try and record the performance my students experienced (so sorry for the crude recording and poor quality).
I have recorded an mp3, and if I have time, I will find a place to upload it for public download, so that other Biology students can listen and study for their tests on cellular respiration. Also, if I have time, I may upload a better version of this video (powerpoint slide show and song), but teachers so rarely have time when we're doing things like writing tests, grading homework, and making parody songs for our students to actually enjoy what they are learning...
thumbs up if ur screwed for ur test tmrw :D
***** i was 69 :D
loll
Let's see how I do
1 year later. I'm in the same boat.
***** No the comment was posted one year ago.
It's currently 1:11 a.m. This is literally the funniest thing in the world right now. I need sleep.
lmfaoo its 1:24 am for me im dying lol and i got a make it or break it test tomorrow(toDay)
1:13 😔
hahaha fr
i know I'm kinda randomly asking but do anybody know a good site to watch new tv shows online ?
@Dax Kameron Flixportal xD
I discovered this song in 9th grade when trying to study for Biology Honors. I listened to it a lot in 11th grade to help me in AP Biology. Here I am in my freshman year of college listening to this to help me in BIO 2A. Each time I come back to this song, I understand it better. Thank you Mr. Hsu
+Thandiel3791 Yo how hard was the ap bio test and what did you do to study for it, I have it in about 10 days and am currently screwed
I took the AP Bio test the year they changed everything, so I had no reliable study materials. If I were you, I would try taking the tests from 2015 and 2014. Time yourself, make note of anything that you find confusing. Try to be able to explain concepts in your own words. Above anything else, just relax and breathe. It's not the end of the world :)
Thanks for the advice man. I was just exaggerating when I said I was screwed, because at the pace i'm studying I actually have a good chance of passing, and practice questions always help.
Good luck!!! I'm rooting for you! :D
Thandiel3791 Thanks man, you got any advice for studying for photosynthesis in particular, there's so much to cover for that one chapter D:
Lyrics:
Cell respiration
It’s a long complicated process
That I need to know for a bio test
But it turns my brain in a huge big mess
Cell respiration
It breaks down food to release energy
Food molecules are glucose specifically
You need oxygen to oxidize thoroughly
Cell respiration (woo hoo)
It gives off some carbon dioxide
Also water’s made off to the side
But the ATP is why we got on this ride
Cell respiration (woo hoo)
It’s made up of 3 main stages
But it takes up so many pages
And to know it all seems to take many ages
Glycolosis (lysis means split)
Is what’s first up (In the cytoplasm)
Takes one glucose (6 carbons)
And splits it up
To do this right
(It) phosphorylates
(From) 2 ATP
(So) 2 ADP are made
Now that the glucose has phosphate
It breaks into 2 molecules that seem like mates
2 NAD+ come and oxidize them
Which means they take electrons and hydrogen (gen gen gen gen)
Add free phosphates
Now we’re set
2 ADP (it’s really 4)
And 3 carbons met
Phosphates break off
ATP made
Left with pyruvate (there’s 2 of them)
And they go to the Krebs Cycle, Krebs Cycle
Which happens in the mitochondria
Oh no wait, not really, there’s transition step
Let’s count the ATP
4 were made but 2 were spent
That means 2 ATP were profited in
Glycolosis
It didn’t need any oxygen
2 NADH now have hydrogen
And 2 pyruvate molecules were made in the end
Transition step (woo hoo)
NAD+ oxidized pyruvate
1 carbon is lost along the way
And both molecules turn into Acetyl-CoA
Now 2 carbons (carried by coenzyme A)
Krebs cycle next (in the matrix)
4 carbon molecules (already there)
The 2 connect (now 6 carbons)
Gets oxidized (by NAD+)
1 carbon left (CO2 gone)
Will do this twice (Numbers are doubled)
4 carbons are left
1 ATP made
Oxidize (by the)
NAD+ (and)
FADH
Molecules change (no carbons lost)
Atoms rearrange (still 4 carbons)
Looks like the start (wooooo)
And then we’ll do it again
Krebs cycle repeats twice because 2 pyruvate
Were made in (gly)colysis
Let’s count it up
We now have
4 ATP
6 CO2
And then these guys
10 NADH
2 FADH2
Bring electron to ETC
Electron Transport Chain
Inner membrane (brane brane brane)
Of the mitochondria
Proteins in lane (lane lane lane lane)
Electrons from NADH
Pass through 3 protein (teins teins teins)
Electrons from FADH2
pass through 2 proteins (teins teins teins)
As the electron pass through, the proteins
Pump out hydrogen ions called protons to the
Inter (inter) membrane space
A concentrated place (place)
Protons will return through the (A)ATP synthase
ATP synthase (makes)
32 ATP from returning protons
6 oxygen molecules get the electrons
And they combine to make 6 water with hydrogen ions
Cell respiration (woo hoo)
Now I know the entire process
If I study I’ll do well on the bio test
And afterwards I’ll get a good good rest
yaaasss thank you !!
god bless your soul, thank you!
Thank you so much omg
First heard this song 13 year ago to study for a bio exam in high school.
Now I'm listening to study for a biochem test in medical school. Still a banger.
Thank you, Mr.Hsu!
I'm a junior in college, nursing major and i've taken countless amounts of bio classes and cell respiration shows up on an exam.. every sing time without fail. I always come back to this video!:)
Seriously, if you're a teacher and took the time to make this.... there's not words of appreciation. You're rock! We need teachers like you that will go above and beyond the call of duty!
no dude…. youre the real rock
Teacher lets you listen to music in class this is what I will be listing to
I'm doing this now in college. And that was helpful good stuff.
Eric Nguyen College?!?!?! I’m doing this in 7th grade!!
I seriously have used this song to understand cell respiration in high school bio, and at least three college courses. I don't know why but in song form like this it actually sticks. You are an incredibly talented teacher. Thank you so much!!!
I'm so excited to use this studying!! Almost 9 years after you posting this, I thank you!
Thank you Mark Garcia for sharing this song with us. You're still the best in my eyes.
When you watch this in class desperately trying to memorize everything...
This is so great!!! You are brilliant... This definitely helped me to remember and understand the process of cellular respiration. You were able to cover what would take most bio teachers multiple lessons to teach in under five minutes. It was so easy to follow too. Thank you so so much for taking the time to make this and share it for others on youtube.
Ok, My 10th grade brother recently showed me this, I LOVE LOVE LOVE IT! It makes me understand it slightly more, even if I have no idea what a cellular respiration is! this is awesome!! 100% one of my favorite covers of a song.
Now when you say a good good rest, you mean start the process all over again with Photosynthesis?
T-T yep
Lmao I always get hyped when ELECTRON TRANSPORT CHAIN INNER MEMBRANE -BRANE -BRANE -BRANE comes on, but this is extremely helpful, thank you!!
Thank you so much for making this video. Cell respiration is the most confusing process to explain, but you did it so well, and now I can actually remember the processes! Test tomorrow!! Thanks for the help.
I haven't had a science class in 20 years and it was nothing like what or how I'm learning now. I am so glad I found this! Thanks so much and an excellent job!!!
this is the best/cutest thing ever. Thank you for creating this spinoff ^^
NOW I WANT HIM AS MY BIO TEACHER!!!!!!!!!
I have an ap bio test tomorrow im not ready
Miranda L Cedillo I'm in HL IB Bio. fuck me
I am too :) I'm also 100% SCREWED
Teacher of the year award. NONE of my teachers in all of my 15yrs of schooling have put this much effort.
These kids are so lucky. My biology teacher has us watch PowerPoint presentations filled with words.
No worksheets, no labs, no activities, nothing.
I'm currently studying for a final and this helped me so much!
do i cry or do i cry
This song is actually amazing and super helpful. I'm very impressed with the time and effort that must have went into this!
Freshman Year, my advanced bio teacher showed us this video not too long ago and I cannot stop watching this video. And I think it was very reliable, now every time I need to study for Cellular Respiration, I will always come back here so I can do well on my next bio test and continue to understand it better. Thank you Mr. Hsu !!! :))
I have the most respect for teachers who are willing to go the extra mile in order for students to comprehend the material!!
This is absolutely hilarious at 2 in the morning....
This song got me though med school. Thanks hsu!
I love when teachers go out of their way for their students. this will really help me on my test tomorrow and for that I thank you.
How can something be so bad and good at the same time?! Truly The Room of educational covers.
This teacher is #BEAST
Thank you for spending the time to make this. So helpful and creative way to remember!!
We need to be more thankful for the great teachers like you. It takes dedication and passion to go above and beyond like this. Thank you.
That was so awesome!!! One of the best Biology songs I've heard yet.
Pardon, I meant to say "for every glucose consumed."
OMg, this teacher rocks!!! I did not understand this in my book and my prof jus confused me more, now I think Im saved!!! Bless this teacher for taking the time to do this... not only is he helping highschool students but us college students are so appreciating you!!!! Thanx!
Still remember the song from when we heard it in class. Go Mr. Hsu!!!!

Thank you so much Diasy!!!!!! i REALLY needed it!
after watching this I have some hope that I will pass my bio test
I'm in college, and this is the best thing I've ever found to help in learning and understanding Cellular Respiration!! Thank you so much!!
What a great teacher that goes through this ridiculousness just to help his students learn
oh my goodness, now everything seems clearer, thank you so much
Can you be my biology teacher please LOL
Alisha M same
After 3 years of biology, I have NEVER completely figured out cellular respiration. 5 minutes of watching this video;; I have it memorized. THANK YOU SO MUCH !
I'm over here studying for my TEAs test that I'm taking in 2 days. Thanks so much for this video!!!
dam I wish I had this during my summer school bio classes
Oh my gosh! Thank you so much! I've been looking two weeks to find something that will help me understand and remember the cellular respiration process, and I finally found it!!! Do you have another one for fermentation by any chance? Also, in the krebs cycle, I feel like you skipped a lot of steps, but otherwise, thanks so much!!!
I just learned more by listening to that seven times and singing along than I did in two weeks of courses... and it was free... college prices need to be re-evaluated. Thank you for making learning fun and simple.
Whoever has this person as a teacher must love him.
it was awesome!
It’s cringeworthy but the song helped me
Thanks m8
Sad
I've listened to this song dozens of times! It's amazing, thank you.
This made me learn more than any of my teachers taught me.
You sir, are a wonderful man.
I wish my teacher was this enthusiastic
I am in 8th grade and my teacher is making me memorize this song and sing it TOMORROW D:
How did it go? :3
3 years late but uhhh how'd it go
BRO ME TOO BUT IM DOING IT FOUR YEARS LATER
😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😰😰🏕😰
I am sitting here with a friend of mine in high school who just took a test over cellular respiration, and I remembered how when I had to take that test I listened and memorized this song. THANK YOU FOR ALL ETERNITY US STUDENTS WILL BE ABLE TO SUCCEED BECAUSE YOU TAKE US IN 5 MINUTES WHAT OUR TEACHERS COULD NOT IN A FEW WEEKS BECAUSE THEY ARE BORING AND WE DON'T LIKE TO PAY ATTENTION. YOU WIN.
My teacher may be terrible, but this. This is pure brilliance. I didn't understand anything about cellular respiration until now.
"woohoo..."
its too funny trying to watch this without the weird looks from my family. xD I'm in college
I always learned things best using songs when I was younger and this one showed me that I can still use that method now that I'm in college! Thank you professor Hsu! 13 years later and you're still helping people pass bio.
why is this so much more helpful than seven different teachers lecturing me on it? THANK YOU SO MUCH I WONT FAIL MY MIDTERM NOW
pls the photosynthesis song!!!
Woo hoo!
helped me on the quiz
This is wonderful now i can remember this in a fun way. You , sir, deserve an award.
my teacher showed us this like 5 times!! its actually amazing..im putting it on my iPod, then listening to it all day until i have my bio test at the end of the day..hopefully this will get stuck in my head so i can remember everything!
I haven’t payed my taxes since 2004
Same
brane brane brane
This is absolutely amazing. It's teachers like this who actually TEACH things to kids. I have a feeling you're the type of teacher who has actually made a real impact on these kids too. Good on ya mate
i want you to know that i heard this song for the first time when my mom was in college as a kid well over 10 years ago, and now that i am in college as a biological sciences student, i am still listening to this song to help me learn cell respiration. much love!
All my decisions in life has come to me watching this horrid video on UA-cam dot com
This song is the reason the world exists. When Allah rises from his ancient tomb, the angels while sing this song in his honor and then explode in a glorious jihad, purifying the infidels of the West and making our brave suicide bombers ascend into Nirvana.
or the american government will nuke allah before he can say a single word
not as long as the american patriot lives and conquers.
the patriot is aka the "Great Satan" by Iran, sooo....
kekoslovakia
Yeah, russianrings, what he said
Dude, you are awesome! It's teachers like you that keep students interested in school and their subjects. I know in my high school years, I learned ALOT more from my fun instructors than I did from the drab plug and chug instructors. Keep it up! Your changing lives!
I am currently listening to this song trying to fully comprehend the process of cellular respiration and it really helps. Thank you!
You clarified everything so much. I didn't understand ANYTHING about cellular respiration before (well except for glycolysis) but then you explained everything and made it all seem so simple. Thanks a bunch! :D
Here in the UK there's a bio exam tomorrow
My teacher showed me this video
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
I am learning this off word for word. You sir, are a genius!
This is weirdly addicting. Thank you for making this video. At first I didn't understand anything about cellular respiration, but now I can thank you for helping me get 90% on my exam! ^^ Now the only problem I have is resisting the temptation to sing "CELLULAR RESPIRATION, WOOHOO".
Thanks a lot Mr. Hsu, I am actually taking an introductory college level bio class and this vid has helped so much in grasping the main points of cellular respiration, which is basically what we need to know. Again thanks a ton, amazing video!!!
Honestly... This was pretty much the reason I passed the AP Biology exam this past year. Thank you so much. I did study and I did do well on my bio test! Keep it up!!
Our teacher showed us this video in bio today because we have a test tomorrow on cellular respiration. I had no idea what was happening with the Kreb's cycle in the video, but I think I will get it when I look through my textbook. This really helped me understand glycolysis, the transition step and the electron transport chain. Thanks!
amazing. i had this playing in my head while i took an AP bio test and almost wrote the lyrics in the essay
Oh my goodness, thank you so much! I read this chapter in my book twice and still didn't understand it at all. This song is really helping me. The world needs more dedicated teachers like you.
this song has been there for me for almost 7 years
And people think the world couldn't function as a musical...Thank you!
Holy cow, you are an awesome teacher. To take the time to make a video like this to help your students is amazing. I wish there were more teaching with your passion. My teacher would have NEVER done something like this. Thank you! once again your awesome!
Our teacher played this song in class, and everyone exchanged some really awkward looks because of his voice. Honestly I think it's a really nice thing he embarrassed himself for his students sake XD Props to you!!
Everything on cellular respiration was but a blur, a headache and an inch away from me throwing my biology book out the window. I just have to say, you've simplified the entire cycle; 15 pages of arduous, tidius reading broken down into 5 minutes and it was CLEAR. Because of this song, i aced this portion of test today. THANK YOUUUUUU!
kind of teacher every school needs. I LOVE THIS!! thanks so much for sharing!!
My batchmates and I have our Bio exam tomorrow. We're all singing this song. Thank you!!!
This video was seriously one of the best educational videos I've seen ever!
Thank you so much for your time and effort, bless you!
first listen i laughed. now its one of the more helpful things to remember cellular respiration. help me
I will say it... I LOVE YOU!!!
I will now be one of those people who will quietly sing this while taking my Biology exam :D THANK YOU!!!
Thank you for making this song! I didn't do so well on my cellular respiration quiz the first time. While studying for my retake, I found your video. Now I actually somewhat understand what's going on during cellular respiration and can ace my quiz! Thank you again!
Oh my stars, this is gold. Thank you so much!!
This song pretty much saved my life. I wish I had a cool teacher like this.
I am in college A & P 1 and this song really helped this whole process click. Thanks so much for this song. Great job
This is probably the best video i have seen in my entire life... Hands down.
You honestly saved my life haha. Couldn't have done t without this video :) Thanks a million.
