Wee Irish kids greet 'Star Wars' producers with whistles and accordions

There's no better way to tell someone you love them than with an accordion.

Students in County Donegal, Ireland recently learned that the next 'Star Wars' movie would be filming on their local scenic cliffs, Malin Head. The students were obviously thrilled, so to celebrate the producers' arrival, teacher Caroline Glackin decided to organize a group of them and put together a little concert. There were accordions, there were whistles, and yes, there were "little musicians." 

"As a music teacher in the locality, I wanted something for my little musicians to do. First of all, to welcome the crew but also to advertise our local area and its scenic landmarks as well as our vibrant community spirit," Glackin told Irish Central.

The video even comes with a wee Darth Vader figurine, and a blooper reel.

It's revoltingly cute.
