@poochy2479 Telling people how to enjoy music and the history behind it constitutes being called a prick. Typing it in all caps just furthers the prick vibe. Calling people 'wanabees' for being interested in history is just stupid. Their spelling and grammar is atrocious, but that's unrelated to their status as a prick.
Yes, someone who tells people how to enjoy music and ranting about the history while typing with horrid grammar would be a prick. However, that guy did not rant about the history, nor did he tell anyone how to enjoy the music, and honestly, I think all he was really missing was punctuation and I noticed just a few minor spelling errors. I do not think he was a prick. Maybe you should have actually read his comment with your eyeballs.

This Isn't Startovarius It's Happens to be Timo Tolkki Who Is Their Guitar Player and Genius of The Group. The Song is From his 1994 Solo Album ' Classical Variations and Themes.
This song is amazing. I tried to play it by ear on the guitar, and realised that it actualy manages to mix two very basic scales together that are quite different, yet it makes it all sound amazing. So simple, yet so frigin catchy!
i started taking guitar lessons because i wanted to play my favorite songs from my favorite power metal bands. this is the very first song i was taught, but i was taught the original (mozart?) version. then i discovered one of my favorite power metal bands plays a version of it. awesome :D
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
.. i think timo tokki could do better, i mean anyone could do that rangement form the original version.. if hes from strato i think hey could do a rock version with better arangements adding bass drums and vocal.. i thnik timo is verry talented and he could do better areangements with this song
It is though, because if you mess up the spelling of a word it can become a different word and change the meaning of the statement. I could say something in spanish right now, and if I articulated it wrong and made some grammatical errors, you might not be able to focus on the meaning of the message because you won't be able to interpret it correctly.
I'm going to make a new version of this song with my band, Winterbreath, and I've to say that Timo has had a great idea covering this song. We're taking inspiration from it, thanks, Timo.
That is just a popular misconception. Greensleeves is believed to be Elizabethan in origin and is based on an Italian style of composition that didn't reach England until after the death of Henry VIII
Wrong-o. Greensleeves was written some time before 1600 (earliest examples indicate about 1580). Mozart was born in 1756, so unless he used his time travelling piano then he didn't write greensleeves. Its believed Henry VIII wrote it, but unproven.
@awesomemd I know the history of this song already, but I like to think the reason why people are thumbing up your comment is because the idea of Mozart with a time travelling piano is the most epic music thing ever.
The fifth note should be raised a half step - this song is supposed to be in the Dorian mode, not Aeolian or minor. Well, actually, because of the leading tone added in in some spots, it is mode mixture, but you get the idea.
i think its weird that people are coming to a video saying.
JUST LISTEN TO THE SONG!
people do listen to the song, but if you can´t write at the same time your listening to music then you my good friend, are an retarded fella.
