Variations on a Chocobo?

[veggieloveable]

A matress?? im guessing for sound proofing

[PopTartNeko]

I cried

[nikkilovesjrock09]

this was awesomeness! :)

[Masuo15]

Sounds pretty good!!, and fits more the Chocobo's spirit from the fram to a race XD.

[azurefishie]

The part from 1:42 to the end. I think that is the only time I've heard anyone who was able to manage that without being flat or drive me insane. Great and clear tone sir!

[violinlurrve]

lol! all the faces he made!

[MYxxLxxCHIBI]

I do the same thing with pokemon music. I play it normal and then in just about every other possible way. I love this vid.

Sherlock Holmes! :D

[BeaTanLim]

I liked the part when I liked this video

[BeaTanLim]

I like the part when he looked away from his violin and made the "face" just because he did a very little mistake. He looks so humble. >3<

[AvatarYangChin7]

Ah Ben, your such a show off..... in a good way. Its evident you have been playing for a while. You should teach. You'd make an awesome teacher.

[Au4Ob08]

At 1:02 he must have been like: "Ahh, my ears."

[foxdash]

Haha! Well done, a very clean version as well! Loved how you had fun playing with this song, enough to make me wanna sub and see more :)

[Hell1Kitty1]

you are amazing!!! 

[vinzer72frie]

[kigid]

Why is he standing in front of a mattress?

[lovexhumiliatesxyou]

EPIC AS FUCK.

[TheCharon77]

[MrKzim95]

[999dokidoki]

oh chocobo many memories....btw you want us to register to make sure were not internert bots...but what would an internet bot do with violin sheet music ?0-o (is very confused) :D

[Peace1Wolf]

10 bango players missed the like button because they were upset that their mothers made them play the bango instead of the violin. :D

[numsify]

AHHH! Wonderful! I'm going to learn to play this tomorrow! hahaha Love the back drop to your uber video.

[dduke83]

hahahaha ben chan you're the coolest one!!

[frasierfraish]

Final Fantasy is an RPG

The only one that I need

It's the RPG for me!

Final Fantasy consumes my life

And that is probably why I'll never have a real wife.

[Ryuuzora94]

It reminded me of a cat that ate and entire bag of cat nip. Still cute yet oddly irritating.

[MajinTrista]

[Vyomesh1984]

BrandonTeFilipinoGuy

SUN SIGIL! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH­H!

[tforal]

Your facial expression is just awesome xD

[derZockerAska]

I think "played wrong/baldy" is usually called

"dirty tunes" or am i wrong?

[BrandonTeFilipinoGuy]

OMG i love this song haha reminds me of FFX riding the chocobo tryingg to beat that stupid challenge in the plains.... ehh still havent gotten Tidus's sword to full potential..

[lynth]

Awesome~

I love the "badly played" parts most.

Actually I don't understand why people like the clear tones better! Violin sounds so much more awesome when it's played "wrong"! :D

[cabbitsd]
