- I figured I'd leave you today with a song, if you will. So, Jeff, if you could come up here. Jeff Heck, everyone. Please welcome one of your fellow graduates. Jeff is, of course, from Eliot House. You know what you guys? You guys at Eliot House, give yourselves a nice round of applause because you had the head lice scare this year, and it shut you down for most of last semester. But you didn't mind the tents they set up for you, and you were just troopers. You really were.
Anyway, here's a song that I think really captures the essence of the Harvard experience. It goes a little like this.
[SINGING]
I close my eyes, only for a moment, and the moment's gone,
All my dreams, pass before my eyes, a curiosity.
Dust in the wind, all they are is dust in the wind.
Same old song, just a drop of water in an endless sea,
All we do, crumbles to the ground, though we refuse to see.
Dust in the wind, all we are is dust in the wind.
Okay, you know what? I'm just realizing that this is a terrible graduation song. Once again, I'm sorry. This is the first time I've actually listened to the lyrics. Man, it's a downer. It's bleak.
Boy, I want to finish this. Just give me a minute, and let me figure out how to fix this thing. Okay. I think I got it.
[SINGING]
Now don't hang on, nothing lasts forever but the Harvard alumni endowment fund.
It adds up, has performed at 22 percent growth over the last six years.
Dust in the wind, you're so much more than dust in the wind.
Dust in the wind, you're shiny little very smart pieces of dust in the wind.
Thank you. Good luck. And have a great day tomorrow...
[plus some additional stuff including "Frank the Tank" skit following the speech]
I probably watch this once or twice a year because it’s that good. Comedy gold and these kids and their families got to see one of the best graduation speeches of all time.
He threw their T-shirt away , and got away with it! That's how much Will is being loved! And he deserves it :)
will ferrell, what a great man.
Audio quality's on fleek
i just can't get enough of this:)
And a good singer!
He sings this in Old School too. One of the best Will Ferrell moments
YOURE BY BOY. YOURE MY BOY BLUE
only 544 views? that's ridiculous, this is absolutely amazing.
will ferrel.... a fucken legend.
this is one of the funniest performances i have ever seen - i studied acting of all kinds - commedia del arte - traditional shakespeare - i've seen EVERY 1990's uk & us stand up worth watching from sarah silverman to sean hughes to whoever - loved greek traditional - did british post war plays - studied brecht & antonin artaud - Whatever! this is only surpassed by his 'evening with george bush' - which is in my opinion - the best and actually poignant and necessary (solo) performances ever.
excited old man at 2.13 supports Will Ferrell by singing with him "duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuust"... Nice job gramps!
One of the Only videos i've ever watched all the way through with some of the worst audio quality...
im crying
Of course he had to sing. All that was missing was him in his tidy whities 😄
Brilliant!!!
i love this
yes, he probably loves kansas. He sings this one in Old School as well.
It's crazy how some comedians are amazing singers lol
Lies again? Soccer Trial
Goddamn he is awesome...
I thought he was going to yell "we're going streaking!"
brilliant
Lol @ the guy in the audience yelling, "YOU'RE MY BOY BLUE! YOU'RE MY BOY!"
6:38 ...the harvard tshirt just killed it^^ for me at least^^
"Nerds at the bank. Half of you will become nerds at the bank."
WOOOO!!!!
Brutal guitar playing
the tshirt lol
YOU'RE MY BOY BLUE!
@Ellla84 Dust in the wind? dude its a classic!
You're my boy blue!
your my boy blue i like that one he really did forget to say it
lol ahahahah
* and get away with it =))
OMG!!! THE BALLZ!!! He is my new hero :x
watching that guy yawn made me yawn.... >o
al franken @ 2:42
@uberman123
He also sang Dust in the Wind in Old School. It's funny how although he likes Kansas, he knows most people think their music is corny, so he plays off of it.
Damn lol when they mentioned old school i was afraid they were gonna have him streak.
should end it at 4:20, before the Harvard kids have a chance to ruin the effect
😂❤
@uberman123 im pretty sure he sings dust in the wind in old school too
hahahaha!!!
6:49 EPIC
the arsonist has oddly shaped feet
LMAO! The elderly man in the blue hat at 2:12 needs some harder music
epic YAWN at 2:12
Steve Carell, Mike Myers, Jim Carrey,Louis C.K., Jimmy Carr, Ricky Gervais, Seinfeld! Will Ferrell's somewhere in that mix.
his voice is a mixture between Jesus and Fergie
mt1zapper LooooL
reading about you yawning made me yawn
Can't help but wonder who the giant black lady in white shirt and grey skirt on the left side is. She makes Will Ferrell look short!
and it was used in Old School...
@MrDespo3 its all in the confidence.
0:54 uncle phil from fresh prince
frank the tank
No I don't know. hehe. Please tell me, you got me curious. :D
sound was recorded with a spruce cone. -.-
Is that Al Franken at 3:59?
logyscott holy shit I think you're right
2.13 old man
Goat of college speech
I bet you're not from Harvard
Now all of these graduates are approaching 40 and realizing he was right. Have fun with your midlife crisis.
then you must be a Yale
i feel bad for you because clearly there is something wrong with you then
@lulipeke7 I really have no clue....but I would think so....she must have really been on the down-low if she was there.
the india parents were rattled
Who forgot Natalie Portman was there!
This is the definition of killing a guest speech.
he shouldn't have picked it up
wow, those harvard kids suck at pouring a beer bong...did anyone else notice all that foam? No wonder he couldn't finish it!!
Shanon Mendes At least they did it
His voice is like a combination of Fergie and Jesus...
Natalie Portman graduated in '03.
@ericcartman89 Clearly you must be a graduate of their math program. Are you sure your name isn't Archimedes? Tell the truth now...
how funny would it of been if he came out from around the podium not wearing any pants!
@dravidr007 HAHA
@Sirblahblah24 Ok, truce on the insults. But seriously...its UA-cam, I didn't know I was only allowed comment on the main subject matter of the video. I was simply pointing out what I thought was a pretty funny FAIL - a bunch of obviously very smart & high class graduates trying to recreate a scene from a movie about a bunch of college partiers...kinda like when someone tries to tell a joke & screws up the punchline. It was awkward & full of FAIL.
horrible audio quality
