I don't think any of the people recording and arranging all these 'canons' actually know what a canon is. The whole point of the piece of music is the overlapping, contrapuntal melodies. Without this harmonic device, the music is not in fact a canon. It is more of a 'rock jam' on a theme by Pachelbell. The texture is no longer polyphonic and mesmorizing, but thin and artificial sounding.
Some of this guy's string bends are out of tune also.
ya, you are quite right in classical music theory. but since the D major is the most famous canon ever, we can call this a appropriation of canon. from a linguistic point of view, the word 'canon' has changed its conotation.
that's funny cause if you go to funtwo's video people give him shit for copying jerryc. funtwo gives jerryc credit anyway if you cared to look, but don't worry i'm sure you'll make something new to hate him for. maybe he copied those curtains right off a martha stewart show?
by that kid that did the original...then you mean he's stealing from jerryc. well, since he's jerryc it's not really stealing. and if you mean funtwo then at the beginning of funtwo's video when he credits jerryc that must confuse the shit out of you. but your point of jerry being a fag brings many valid points. with logic like that, it's hard to dispute someone who obviously mastered dressing himself. bravo.
What is it with you people? Stop fricken comparing someone to someone else... No matter who plays it there will always be someone who could do it better!! JerryC and Funtwo are both very talented so yeah Stop bickering over it!!! This is a really nice piece of work.. Funtwo took it and added his own touch to it.. theyre both great musicians and thats that.
funtwo is wayy better than him.. although he arranged the song, he can't even play it as well as he made it. and anyways people always say well JERRYC ARRANGED IT, well someone else regularly COMPOSED the song, so he couldn't have arranged it if that person didn't compose the song.
anyways, Funtwo has like this feeling you can't explain youknow? JerryC looks like hes trying SOO hard, when funtwo is playing so fluently.
why are you such an idiot xxxhalaxxx? He is a solo guitarist from Taiwan (google JerryC) or search JerryC on YouTube to see him on a Taiwanese TV show playing..
Jerry C. (the guy in the video) is the one who wrote the guitar version of canon.. -_- so stop saying its fake cuz its not and this korean dude named funtwo is just as good as jerry c those 2 are the best
..why you all fuckin arguing whor write th song..this song is a classic one..it originally played on old piano for wedding ceremony..just a little hint suckers..
man, JerryC, much better than good old reubnick on guitar, and he probably always will be, ive actually tried to play this song on my guitar, but i look like a total moron compared to him. YOU ROCK!!! I am SO going to play this at my eventual wedding.
the guy in THIS video (jerryc) ARRANGED this song. The song was WRITTEN by Pacabel - a well known classical composer. This arrangment (and the one funtwo Attmpts to play) was written by this ^^ dude...
NOBODY CARES FAGS!! GOD I DONT CARE WHO WROTE THE SONG!!!! I was just shooting in the dark cause i had no idea who even wrote it! God you little pricks.
omg guys, jerryc WROTE this song, how can you even say funtwo plays it better? To be honst theyre the samee song dubbed over the video and then played by the person and then put on the video...
True, but funtwo did play it better. Maybe he just got lucky that one time, but as far as I know funtwo's posted vid is better than JerryC's posted vid, but that don't mean he's better than JerryC cuz JerryC ownz.
