  • Can you play your shamisen, while I play ninja in a bamboo forest?

  • This is incredible. I'm truly amazed. This sounds better than the original. I want you to serenade me to sleep ever night with your mad Shamisen skills

  • what are you playing O_O

  • Red Forman would be proud of you :')

  • i like you!! from thailand people

  • oh my god, i love the internet

  • I must admit: YOU, good Sir, are a MUSICAL GENIOUS!

  • why are you so talented--- i can only sing a bit :D

  • How long did it take you toput this all together mikepenny01?

  • @MhikoLyan

    It is a performance technique for not existing in Japan.

  • if you look closely an idiot watched and became top comment

  • @MhikoLyan

    俺たち日本人が聞いても、素晴らしいんだよ!!!

  • @waqwaqsx

    how good is he? can you explain?

  • @MhioLyan

    It is a wonderful not imaginable, performance we to Japanese.

  • watch?v=tiDfAisNLpQ

    watch?v=cbsOOeDQjLo

    watch?v=MxfUtSvsc3k

  • It is very wonderful. Where will you have learnt it?

    From Japan

  • @waqwaqsx

    funny question if you are japanese, lol

  • You are a GOD with this instrument. WELL DONE and schmoYOho to you.

  • Your hand looks and moves like a big ass spider.

    Great stuff btw!!

  • this is just massively awesome!

  • @MrSkippydoodle umm I learned how to play the shamisen, and I'm a swedish girl who doesn't watch anime. I AM a nerd though!

  • yay kareoke version :D

  • U should do "sweet child o mine"!

  • dude i want one of these.

  • If you look Closely...you can see that there are only two strings xDD

  • @Besenjiivan It is indeed hard to see! The third string is nylon and therefore harder to see than the two thicker strings which are made from cotton and silk.

  • @Besenjiivan no if you look closely you can see that there are 3 stings

    look at the bridge

  • @Besenjiivan Thank you, Captain Obvious.

  • WOW, congratulations dude!

  • wow that was really cool

  • cuz you can run and tell that home home homeboy

  • The songs by thegregorybrothers actually

  • Imagine performing this for the Japanese royal court back in the 16th century and then imagine how japanese music would be today :D

  • how are you supposed to know where to put you're fingers when there's no frets?

  • @TianCooperFTW Uh...by the note the string makes when you do....

  • wow you have extremely long fingers.

  • he has long fingers...'

  • Nice sitaur dude

  • This is cool :)

  • This should be a DDR song!

  • The song isn't special in itself but the melody is really clingy and hearin it on shamisen is epic.

  • the ultimate nerd instrument!

  • @MrSkippydoodle Why a nerd instrument?

  • @TKOgamer because the only way anyone could have taken it up is either because they are japanese or watch too much anime

  • @MrSkippydoodle You dont actually have to watch anime to know about a shamisen. Plus even if they do find it in anime, it doesnt actually make you a nerd.

    And also why are you assuming japanese people are automaticly nerds(i find that part of your comment a bit offensive since i am japanese.)

  • @TKOgamer i never said japanese people were nerds. i think theres a bit of miscommunication here. i actually have a lot of respect for japanese culture. i studied ninjutsu for a while and know a good bit about japanese history and i find the whole culture intriguing. however i have never heard of a shamisen. and its a bit nerdy for an american white kid to know how to play it. it has a beautiful sound but this kid is an obvious case of an anime fan who wishes he was japanese.

  • So this is what is being played on a classic oriental instrument nowadays XD Still awesome though...

  • LMAO that was EPIC!!! I was totally singing along hahaha fantastic job my friend!

  • This dudes guitar only has two strings but has 3 tuners???

  • @BrutulTurtle There are 3 strings, look closer

  • @BrutulTurtle It actually has three strings, but the third string is invisible. You have to be a ninja to play it.

  • Do you have a ginger sister with no soul that I can meet?

  • Dude, if you keep using an ice-scraper on your strings like that, you're gonna break something!

  • ive actually never seen one of these played but i guess that it is rare for other people than chinese or japanese ( i dont know who plays) to play it.
