it really works :D

lighting and all xD

[Gaalail]

*Slowly starts clapping* I applaud you sir.

[lenkenneth]

[NobelNighthawk274]

I just quit violin but omg! Im so getting back into violin

[WalkingD34d]

You're good man :)

[kkc0161]

this makes me wish i never gave up viola >_>

[tokyopanda13]

I never thought anyone could look badass on a violin. Awesome cover. ^^ And very beautiful, too...

[derhalt1990]

Sadly a liiiittle bad when it comes to the rhythm.

But great idea and good arrangement!!!

[Guiltnazan]

wow 25 people just got killed by bad horse. this is amazing by the way!!!! XD

[vik669]

wow that was the great one man..u rocks.keep it up.

[MeleeStormbringer]

you are beyond awesome. I have no words.

[DuckLuv22]

You are amazing!

[pictowoman]

SWEET!!! ur really good!



[ultranova12]

Awsome and a work of art! Not sure if you were having a bad day on the right though lol

[Peacefulmoments]

Stuff like this makes me wish I didn't totally suck at violin.

[MovieFinatic456]

This was very very good! :)

There's just one thing I noticed. When you were playing Penny's part you seemed a bit nervous and because of that you cracked some notes a few times. I think you should have done what you did on Dr. H's side which is not look at the camera so much. The more you look at the camera the more you realize what your doing, the more you get nervous.

[totalxbandxnerd]

For having no music, and playing by yourself, this is phenomenal. :D :D

[crazycupcakefan]

this is sooo good! :D

[catinthehat1370]

:D i wanna learn this SOO bad!!! you did a wonderful job playing it :) and by yourself? you should get a medal :D

ITS SO PRETTY(: and penny and dr. "horrible" (hes actually really nice and sweet) make a WONDERFUL duet. that movie was the BEST. EVER!

[manfredicomposer]

Good job.

[ASFAnarchist]

Congrats! great idea. it must have been hard to get the three parts in sync!

[LivingSanctuary]

hahahha the Penny-version of mysticgenius is so cute and adorable xD luv the smiles in the beginning

[armadaICOF]

OMG!!!ITS AMAZING!

[lucasbitts]

amazing, the way the violins play is just like them singing *-*

[myheroeps]

dude that was awesome!!! great sense of humor to play the parts with such concentration

[PlanetKooi]

that was beautiful!

[yoatsable22]

very very well done!!!

[ForScience13]

Woooooah, by ear alone? Give yourself a pat on the back buddy, this is amazing =)

[MrDevil2000]

great job bro!!!

it sounds awesome!!

[Niyaru]

i likd how the evil part the guy is in a darker mood and looked pissed and the good part is played in the light room with the cherry and crazy guy

[GrokMonkey]

Seemed a bit fast, but well done and poignant in any case.

[atrus713]

i liked the symbolism of penny's part in a lit room and the dr.'s in a dak one even though in my opinoin the dr. isnt truely evil until penny dies

[lucasbitts]

@atrus713 he is not evil by them either, he just thinks theres no reason to be good anymore

[NWTERC]

@atrus713 It seems to me that based off the very last scene, he isn't truly evil even after she dies. But yes, the symbolism is quite nice.

[KNZMl]

@atrus713 Evil don't mean shit massa. It's sad though.

[16431421]

@atrus713 what? how does penny dying make him evil? it makes him tragic

[zoidberg02]

@16431421

I dunno, I think it was more about his decision and the consequences of it.

At the very start Dr. Horrible has to make a decision to continue his heist or go after penny. He picks evil over love and then everything after that was consequence. She is saved by Cpt. Hammer, they fall in love and then eventually she dies as a result.

[16431421]

@zoidberg02 they dont fall in love. penny falls in love with captain hammer and captain hammer is just a douche bag the whole time.

[n45u]

bravo!

[42Victim]

You totally mastered that song! Plus you added humor, which makes this the best cover I´ve seen! Five stars already, sir...

[andyhookedonjesus]

Wonderful! All by ear? Amazing!

[Anothergoodmove]

Bravo

[FoolPool3000]

When both violins came in, the seemed to clash a bit. they needed to blend a bit more. Other than that you're a freaking genius dude!

[tinydancer9898]

Absolutely lovely, sir!

[GetsuakaKato]

Needs work, the very first verse seemed to have a lot of mistaken notes, but everything else seemed fine. Still amazing, keep it up.

[OneBacill]

Abit to fast

[natehy]

A beautiful cover of a great song. I'm impressed.

[vampr1ss]

I love how you slit the screen, dark and light.

[vampr1ss]

Also I think you should know, The woman who played she was also in a series on youtube called 'the guild' where in it she was a violinist.

[KukacAnyad]

awesome :)) it must have been hard with the timing but you did just fine.. little bit confusing with the rythm here and there, but it was really OK :) congrats

[magichatter]

YOUR BRILLIANT DUDE

[NickzNathan]

O M G... U great..........

[mogarsnite]

"i cannot believe my eyes." literally.

[pand0ra9]

haha, oh man that was pure awesomeness! keep it up! :)

[jaron95]

Dude, that was great.

[deweyderry2005]

very nice dude

[FenixNade]

awesome video and then we get to the end and I crack up with the Dr Horrible intro theme and the Muahahaha

greatness all around

[Daaavde]

Ehi, you're a genius!!

Really awsome job!

This is legend... wait for it... dary!

[mlefevre92]

great job

[aeruns]

the violin sounds so great for this song! love it <3

[FassinTaak]

Yes! Just... yes!

[rosariojc]

Amazing! You have a great smile and lots of talent.

[xxmshxcheesexx]

AWW so cute. ahahah

[KatherineXIX]

The acting is hilarious and the music beautiful, but I almost wish you would jazz it up more - you're obviously a good violinist, so add some shifting and double stops!

[HoliHallow]

Really lovely cover, you got both sides of the song, and they're distinct enough to be able to recognise them both, well done :)

[claudalaud]

i love that you put neil's part in the dark and penny's part in the light :)

[Apenijn]

Awsomely done!! Really coool! It's hard to get the timing right hm? I've done this one too with singing! Perhaps check it out sumetimes? :) Greetings from the Netherland

[motalinda]

its pretty good but the you should work more on the timing :)

[darvenung]

You made my day .

[brunetegodes]

AH i loved this

amazing and so creative

it made me want to play my violin again!!!

[YouMakeMeSick329]

This is great! I love the end, I got goosebumps.

[Anjalena]

Great job dude! I enjoyed singing along with it. It's funny, I used to do this exact same thing except with my boom box that had 2 tape decks (back in the 80's). I would sing/record the alto part, then play that while singing/recording the Soprano I part, then play the tape with both and sing along with the Soprano II part. I love harmonies. =) Great job!

[SanJuusei]

Very nice. Especially doing that all on your own without sheet music, that's pretty well done.

Gah, you made me want to pick back up my violin.

[jecker19000]

wow that was pretty good : )

[Johpickfan]

great idea to play penny's and dr. horrible's role that way. I like it pretty much, although the speed really is not the same, but well done!

[Dragens2]

he cannot hold the speed and rhythm

[Pixis1]

Very impressive how you synched them together like that. Nice job.

[stxguy]

subbed. awesome

[killedxbyxdrapery]

Wonderful!

[finesseccentric]

You didn't bollocks up the important bits, so it's all good.

[CousinShmoo]

seemed a little fast but excellent over all

[emilyforprez]

Dr. Horrible would approve. v_v

[BeuligXanderSatanPoo]

Were you using a metronome? There were a few places where it didn't quite stick to my soul.

Quite good, though.

[zombielover1981]

You're very talented....loved it!

[quljIb]

Quite well done!

[Fishlicka]

erg... I want a violin but mine is too small for me now. This was a great video. The big ass yellow line in the middle could have gone though.

[Kuzukins]

that was amazing. that. was. amazing.

AMAZING.

[orangelegwarmers777]

Ok, I have watched this twice so far and you are absolutly fantastic. You have a very amazing talent.

[orangelegwarmers777]

You are really good!

[cheyneg]

Amazing job! I'm sure Dr. Horrible would be proud!

[AndreaMGC]

I think its awesome! You did a really good job :D

[ThirdEyeSurfer]

It sounds kind of cluttered and messy in the first 4 bars of the harmony, but I otherwise liked it.

[SpongeVal]

So nice :D

[bcbird]

pretty good 4/5 stars for you

[1234lianne]

Wow, beautiful! My roommate and I always sing along with this song, so now we can sing the song without penny and billy voices ;) Thanks!

[makova99]

Perfect....this is amazing.....

[4188744]

that was amazing!

[stargatelvr11]

fantastic!

[achronos81]

Fantastic! You played all three (!) parts beautifully. Great job

[romanoff29]

im a violin player myself and that was amazing! i love the rhythem.

[liraensith]

wow, well done!

that was a wonderful idea and I was surprised about how well your playing fits to their singing and their characters. the piano part was lovely, too

[TheOtherMayu]

it was awsome!!!

u showed the personality differances very well =D

great work! and yeah... geeting into it is the best ;)

[ajnosder]

a friend of mine plays viola. so i think the doctors part should be on a different instrument. my friend might want to do this with you.

[kornelius99]

Wow... You are a huge nerd. But I mean that as a compliment. Good job! =)

[sufilix]

cool stuff and the ending was an extra bonus, good job

[Olqavtoras]

Dude! This is an overload of awesome! Fantastic work!

[ruthtuesday]

Totally wicked!

[xxwilkill4bcrichxx]

EFFIN EPIC!!!!

[steelvenom2003]

I would love to hear this as a cello-viola duet. That would be seriously intense.

[ryusi0n]

You're cute. I wanna have your baby.

[aliceeek]

"Haha, I think I got into it a little too much...but I think it helped me play better. Hahahaha =D"

LOL :D

you're awesomeee

[VestaBlaze09]

I like how you did two sides with two different personalities... like Penny and Billy.

[drunkonmelodrama]

this sounds beautiful as a violin duet! I love how you contrasted your playing style to each part, and how the split screen interacts. xD

[chocochip2000]

May I take the time to interject and say WILL YOU MARRY ME, OH AMAZING MASTER OF MUSIC?!

[SweetKaywinnet]

Just wondering......do you have a sound recording of this available? That would be AMAZING!

[DorothyOverTheRainbo]

COOOOOOOOOOOOLISH!

You should call Felicia out to play her own part on the violin together with you ;-)

[SweetKaywinnet]

You are my new hero. This is amazing!!! I have a few friends who will go NUTS for this!! One of them plays the violin :D

[harklemtdet]

Wow! Dude! Great job. I have no problem realising how hard it must be to translate a vocal song into violin, so much kudos to ya!

[o6crepuscular9x]

Wow...just wow. I'm sending this video to all of my friends; we're a bunch of Dr. Horrible nuts. Kudos to you for not only playing all three parts, BUT also figuring it out by ear. I wish I had that kind of ability.

[djinnifire]

Pretty awesome but yeah seriously your rhythm was off, I assume it was when you overlapped the different parts you were off.

Still awesome.

[0tubachick0]

Ha. Won't edit playing, but I do love the idea of it being played on a violin. It gives it some different/deeper feel.

[bongogeorge09]

wow that is amazing. way to go

[H3LLB1RD]

You guys are totally amazing!

Is there any chance you could post of the violin notes? I can't play by ear...at all.

._.;;

[kittyanimeluvr90210]

It's one guy...

[wanvisa3]

very

GOOD!!!!!!!!!!

[izzo887]

[foppixielover]

Wow... That is...amazing. Just... Wow.

[darkemage]

Damn. Still amazing :D.

[MorteReine]

That was really great! You're so cute. I really liked your Dr. Horrible impression.

[cricrigia]

[pianist626262]

You are ...I have no words... Very funny boy:):)

[exit8Buffy]

nice job

[Ryeguy123a]

that was awesome!

[darkemage]

Holy crap. That was AMAZING. I got goosebumps whenever it was at the part their lines overlapped. That was brilliant! :D

It was also really funny to see you smiling as Penny and glowering as Dr. Horrible =P

[luccamajere]

Wow that was really pretty. o.o You did a really good job especially at playing by ear! Haha, I like the two different violinists...XD

[frosthounded]

awesome!!

[UkeRenji]

I wish I could play THREE INSTRUMENTS AT THE SAME TIME.

Just kidding. Great work, though. Seriously.

[l101177]

did you try out for the yt symphony orchestra?

[Lizzeh7]

oh wow that was amazing

[sportynspunky78]

sick!

[sophieeee19]

this is beautiful.

[EmceeTori]

that was quite good!

i'mimpressed =)

[rashropshire]

too awesome.

i can't take it.

[tonymuyo]

This is crazy! This is my favorite song in the movie and you've played it beautifully. Plus I like how you act as the mean and the nice violinist.

[diverboi3]

That was really awesome!

[sprouseter16]

beautiful, thank you =]

can you please make the notes for violin?

[ninjafinity]

good job, though your rhythm was a bit off. METRONOME = BESTEST FREN!!

(i named mine)

[Ninjastripy]

That is amazing!

[Ninjastripy]

i love dr horrible

[neonsumo]

Geez, triple threat much? I love how you did all three parts; the synching must have been a pain. You're really good at this-- I especially liked the splitscreen good/bad moments; it was a nice act altogether. :)

[AliasZee]

This is amazing it made me cry

[sergiotheswank]

watch the actual clip from the film then. its so awesome

[corruptedfish]

I think they mention this in the commentary.

[Manebk91]

te felicito se escucha bien

I don´t speak english

[ElleyxTigerKitten]

I love you. That is sooo good. And Dr. Horrible is the best thing ever. You are my new best friend. I play violin as well but my ear isn't all that great yet.

[DanceDanceLaForge]

That was AMAZING!

[xxAnimeObsessedxx]

"hence the errors" is no problem. amazing still.

[Skylermystwood]

You have amazing talent, my friend. Keep up the good work, and find a way to make good money off your incredible skills.

[madmaddy94]

Wow, this is amazing.

You are one cool cat.

I love Dr. Horrible. ^-^

Neil Patrick Harris is my god.

I think you should be my new best friend. ;D

[another1shortdaymore]

amazing!

[buu2]

That's awesome. I can't believe you played it by ear. And love the dark/light situation you had there. Amazing.

[recipesfromahat]

this is really nice! love it :)

[jenjennyjj11]

Actually, I think you could have gotten into it a bit more.

It didn't seem like it had enough feeling at some points, although it definitely warmed up after a while. Just try to put more emotion into your playing; it's what makes the difference between a good player and a great player.

Also, at some points when you played (I noticed it was usually either played with 4th finger or it wasn't a very common note), it was a tad flat.

Other than that, great cover! You have a very good ear.

[powkang]

i love it!  thank you!
