Star Wars has a long, complicated—and let’s be honest—ugly history with cover songs.

“The Imperial March” from The Empire Strikes Back has become a staple at sporting events. A Portland man, the Unipiper, made a name for himself by playing a bagpipe rendition of the movie’s main theme while wearing a Darth Vader mask, a kilt, and riding a unicycle. And then there’s Meco.

That’s why it’s nice to see an understated approach when it comes to translating the space fantasy’s classical fanfare into another musical genre. Samuraiguitarist—which is the name Canadian musician Steve-san Onotera plays under—created a video that features a bluegrass medley of the Star Wars theme. It’s biggest excess? The performance is framed as a hologram projected by BB-8, the roly-poly droid starring in Star Wars: The Force Awakens.

The best part of this cover is samuraiguitarist’s rural reimagining of the Star Wars saga as a way to explain the reasoning behind his version.

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away … in an alternate reality, a young Billy Luke Skywalker has befriended Ol’ Ben Ken Bobby. After receiving a distressing message from the beautiful debutante, Charleia, the two set off to Mos Eislenburg, Kentucky. Here they run into the local moonshine trafficker and overall scumbag , Hank Solo Jr., in a seedy local bar. Solo offers the two a ride past the county line in his beat up Ford Falcon as long as they don’t mind riding with his dog, Chewingtobacca. The adventure of a lifetime is on the horizon for this unlikely entourage, and I like to imagine this would be the soundtrack.

This synopsis sounds like it might make a better movie than The Force Awakens.
