What do you think of when you hear the name Conan the Barbarian? Arnold Schwarzenegger? Muscular dudes waving swords around? Crushing your enemies and having them driven before you? The folks over at JonAndAl.com think somewhat differently.

From the writers of Silence! The Musical, Jon and Al Kaplan have created Conan the Barbarian: The Musical. Singing in a fake Ah-nuld voice, the song "Crom!" tells the story of a young Cimmerian who seeks vengeance against the man who killed his parents. It's opera, really. It should be noted that yes, Robot Chicken did something similar years ago with the song "Crush Your Enemies," but that doesn't make this new video any less enjoyable.

Check out both videos below and decide for yourself which song is better.
