Hahaha, YuB nUb is teh awewome.

Yes, one of George's more brilliant moves to cut one of the series' most popular songs from the revisionatized film. keenly wizard.

So am I the only one that had no idea there was an English translation for that song or did they just make one up?

I think they should do a series (if someone hasn't already) based entirely on Han Solo's thoughts, musings and observations while he was encased in carbonite. In real time.

And it would still move at a faster pace than the prequels.

I learned of the "translation" only a few years ago. There was a fansite about it (web 1.0) that I can't find now, and wikipedia doesn't have much detail. I fuzzily remember that the site claimed the Ewok words were written first, and the English made up later, during filming.

If you want to sound really dumb, sing it in English.

My elementary school music teacher (why yes, the one who told me I had no vocal talent whatsoever and should mouth the words) made us sing that song over and over and over again. Over multiple years. As far as I can remember, we only ever sang that and the vocal score from HMS Pinafore. And never sang anything else. </bait>

We sang Yub Nub around a campfire in Death Valley (aka Tatooine). I love that song!

The best title ever for an article was on "Aint It Cool News", about one of the prequels, and it was entitled "GEORGE LUCAS RAPED MY CHILDHOOD". lmao

(I feel violated by Lucas The Hutt too. I absolutely refuse to purchase any Star Wars-related videos, toys or video games until he dies. Not kidding.)
