To Carmen (and anyone else interested in music):
Remember how we walked by Railway Square one day, and someone was playing on a guitar an extremely familiar tune, and neither of us knew what it was even though it was soooooooooooo frustratingly familiar?!
Well, it's Pachelbel's Canon in D.
And I wouldn't have found out if I wasn't here at 3am writing an extremely tedious presentation on Neisseria pili and listening to an anime soundtrack to help me stay awake.
Normally I'm not into electric guitar or any time of electric music, but this guy's fingering is absolutely mesmerising. The recognisable bit starts at approx 1'40".
A much less impressive accoustic guitar version if you can't stand the electric sound.
Though honestly that's probably the first time I thought an electric guitarist was amazing. It's not that I don't notice how hard their songs are normally, it's just that watching them play (and have the volume on REALLY LOW) makes me forget temporarily how eardrum-haemorrhagic their sound is >__>;; This article explains how impressive his play was, although I was mainly floored by his dexterous fingering Orz......
Still....I don't like electric instruments =__=; Electric violins.........ugh.
