Because it's so goddamned cool. Seriously. Best Canon rendition ever.

Whoa.

That's some excellent playing, there. Reminds me a lot of Dragonforce.

It's been posted before with this version. Personally I think this one has a better guitar than the one you posted despite the horrible bed sheets in the video.

Wow, that's pretty damn impressive.

That is amazing. It can lose the MIDI strings in the beginning, but other than that, I have absolutely no complaints. And the part where it restated the theme in -- is that a minor key? Awesome.

Oh, wow. I love things like this. This is reminding me a lot of the Trans-Siberian Orchestra, actually - it seems like something they'd do. They did this great Beethoven medley on one of their albums... anyway. Classical + rock = awesome.

My band did that only with classical + jazz + metal + deathgrind. :D Czech et Aout. We will work out how to play that without fucking up, one day.

Listening to this, it sounded just like Trans-Sieberian to me as well. I still need to get a copy of their perfromance with Metallica

Very nice, but all of the scratching and such sort of turns me off, and there were a few errors that sort of got at me.

Because harmonic minor makes everything cooler!

Hmm... It's good, but I think that part in the minor key sounds a little out of place :|

I would not be surprised if that kid has a collection of Yngwie Malmsteen albums.

The only possible way for that to be cooler is if the kid was flying.

Also, Rye, that kicked ass.

I would have preferred melodic minor there myself. The jump from the sixth to seventh tones always sounded a little bit out of place.

It was just the slightest discombobulation (pardon, please) that gave that part of the song the perfect amount of spice.

Heh, I'm always a sucker for exoticism.

Fucking sweet. I did get that trans-siberian orchestra vibe from it also.

:shock: That was awesome. There's some okay stuff on the rest of his site, though nothing compares to classical with electric guitar. I demand more!

Harmonic minor is for weak-eared sissies. Real men use the natural minor. 8)
