Faerie's Aire and Death Waltz Quartet

[DrAWily]

um... This is certainly... not death waltz... death waltz is a remix of UN Owen was her. even if the composer is the same, please find some other name for it... it's insulting to the composer to compare his works against each other in such a fashion... why don't you just put 'Faeries' in the tag line?

[DefertoNeminem]

@DrAWily this is John Stump's real "Death Waltz" when played. UN Owen was Her was written by ZUN. The remix of UN Owen was made by COOL&CREATE and is currently nicknamed and more commonly known as Death Waltz. Though you commented in ignorance, it is insulting for me not to correct you to give the composers the credit they deserve.

[Rayqiaoza]

I actually think it sounds pretty.. cool. But it's kinda random to me. I mean, just look at the sheet.

[mdemoin1]

this is string quartet no. 556(b) for strings in A minor (motorin accident) composed by the same guy as death waltz though

[DetestProtest]

Old generic, dissonant video game music. Old generic, dissonant video game music and nothing more.

[scoreunder]

@DetestProtest Video game?

[DetestProtest]

@scoreunder Yeah. Like old Sega or 360 stuff, when they didn't really have sound effects , so they needed to incorporate the events on the screen and the background music all into the same audio. You're battling Bowser, or something, and it almost sounds like digital ragtime music, when something sharp and heavy darts at you, at which point the music does something to the effect of "Wownt wonwt wownt wownt". That's what I mean.

[megaman66productions]

thumbs up if you see a 2 on top right (not all the way)

[RealDeem]

Beautiful....

[NeoCiabatta]

What the shit 200 thousand views god damn

[idislikegglanutube]

this is a level of shitty I had never imagined before. Sounds awful 

[rstheoneandonly]

Thank God! someone put the real fucking John Stump death waltz on youtube. Now all the other youtube vids can rename their vids as U.N. Owen was her remix. This is the TRUE death waltz.

[WatchTheCovers201]

All you guys know thats an Unplayable sheet of music?

And its not call Dead Waltz right? :P

[worldindo1]

Notice on that video there is a "1:21"

[gabrixao]

Jigsaw said : I wanna play a game and this song .

[ultimatechucknorris]

RELEASE THE FLYING PENGUINS!!!!!

[benkatz80]

This is every song ever written and that ever will be written condensed into 37 seconds. Every musician can just stop now.

[dazkid33]

This song is powered by 1.21 jigawatts!

[ExRedRain]

i think he was just drawing.... not composing music.....

[KaiCalimatinus]

Light explosives now... And... Now.

[M0r3B4c0n]

Still sounds better than Bieber

[YouShisha1393]

This is ASCII art. Not music.

[ShoeBob98]

what the fuck is this bullshit?

[MowMan7]

@ShoeBob98 look it up

[ShoeBob98]

@MowMan7 is this justin beibers new cd?

[supergreatsuper]

What does it sound like if the sound is reversed?

[AQtrainer]

looks like my math homework

[iluvwaffles100]

sounds like a song lady gaga would do to me

[notsufrayu]

I knew an idiot who thougt that this was playable on the intruments is says even if those notes are not in their range

[3rick4ndrews]

Thats how you write music for dubstep

[barneeey]

why? cuz FUCK YOU that's why

[gtrmu]

Sounds better than today's music!

[Demonicnoobie]

This sounds ike yoshis island

[SplendarvelousLove]

Release the penguins.

[poppinsdebo]

I bet chuck norris can play this, BY HIMSELF

[coreyjalverson]

Just.... beautiful (tear)

[enochwei308]

anybody seen 2 giant notes anywhere?

[ImxFordY]

i used to be able to play this then i took an arrow in the knee

[ahZacLovesMo]

Chuck Norris can play this with one hand.

[evilkillerpenguin]

Still sounds better than justin bieber.

[mrbeastalot1]

...............i like it

[ealdie24]

that sounds like me playing with the piano when I was 4

[Bigslam1993]

@ealdie24

you little genius...

[Snakemonkey2010]

@ealdie24 ...after being reincarnated.....twice......

[OhItsGinevra]

... 0.o

[ducky12349]

Only Chuck Norris can play that

[jacksonfitzsimmons4]

@ducky12349 On a recorder no less

[Zero14811111]

Troll music.

[DismallyHopeless]

My next solo. #winning

[VoiceofKane3]

Alright. For people to have clarified: This is NOT UN Owen Was Her, nor was it Stump's more famous Fairie's Aire and Death Waltz.

It is Stump's less famous, but equally hilarious work:

"String Quartet No. 556(b) for Strings

In A Minor (Motoring Accident)

(Dedicated to the Babylonian Navy String Quartet from 1101 BC)."

Facts: They're important.

[SweetofStars]

Sounds pretty lol xD

I knew that the song "Death Waltz" wasnt Flandre's theme. God damned guy that made that Death Waltz video should remove it and put the real title of the song.

[19October66]

Omg! ART!!! lol

[HistoMagouri]

Finally I found the real Death Waltz.

It still sounds like a Touhou song surprisingly. ZUN should make a character based on this stuff, that would be really neat. And very convenient because then it points people to the real Death Waltz, those dumbasses.

[tjrieves]

That's actually not the Death Waltz. Please get it right.

[SergeantLuke]

@tjrieves As the description states, it was intentionally mislabeled because the Death Waltz is more well known (and, unlike this piece, is impossible to actually perform).

[tjrieves]

@SergeantLuke My bad. I should have read that part

[LaurierThym]

Ewwww... that sounds like someone is raping an organ >__>

[TheDuskMar]

RELEASE THE PENGUINS!

[gybnxi]

This...is music? .... If its an impossible song, it should at least sound good...

[blizrfiz]

... think i preffer the touhou/fake one.

[Nvyagoyadv]

if only all the idiots who think that flandre's theme is based on death waltz would watch this.

[macomac18]

what the f***

[byTemari]

it desribe my mind :D

[MangaEngel]

...And where were the penguins? D:

[leoleon08]

challenge accepted :D

[HibernatorLR]

u see the 2nd row from the bottom with lots of notes

conentrate on it and you will see HELP ME on it. scary.......

[videosofsparta]

@HibernatorLR For me, it's written "blame".

[samevrel]

"This particular piano version [the U.N one] has been nicknamed "Death Waltz" after a particular YouTube video which is titled as such presumably because the uploader didn't know how to translate the actual title; this title is a reference to an unrelated composition, "Faerie's Aire and Death Waltz" by John Stump referring to their mutual unplayability."

So yeah this is the actual Faerie Aire and Death Waltz and YES it's by John Stump.

[Deathwaltzfan2010]

@NeoCiabatta this is not death waltz idiot

[kcfob]

@Deathwaltzfan2010

yes, this is the death waltz, what you proibable are thinking is death waltz is actually

U.N. Owen was He

the titles got confused for some crazy reason

[smm32390]

insert peanuts.

[Deathwaltzfan2010]

lol

[MrDeveantartist]

thank you for actually have the real death waltz. i cant tell you how annoying it is to see all those "UN Owen was her?" remixes under that name

[TheRealMegurineLuka]

New challenge: make love to the tune of this song.

[HEAVYMETAL629]

fuck the police

[QuikVidGuy]

@NeoCiabatta Alright.

[Natanael605]

Gila nih yang buat lagu....

[Chrome9129]

you forgot the disco feel.

[TheFan630]

O.O

[loverofjesusMKII]

and how did this end up being mistaken for this; /watch?v=euadl2uWy_g&feature=r­elated

[XxxYoon404]

ami the only one who see 1:21 on de right side?

[SweetofStars]

Idiots, it's supposed to be unplayable.

[austone151]

@SweetofStars obviously it's playable.

[Alto095]

I feel like if you haven't studied music you won't understand why this piece is so great and funny!

[Eradicateify]

Its fake because the sheet music doesnt actually song like that. Tone clusters sound completely different....

[Chrisirhc1996]

@luapslev5826 actually it is possible, but sounds like a chain reaction of castrations of cats through a hurricane.

[luapslev5826]

Fake

[mslurr]

@luapslev5826 What do you mean, it's fake?

[luapslev5826]

@mslurr the music sheet it fake no one can play that

[flanflandere]

I hate how everyone thinks Flandre's theme is John Stump's Death Waltz. A true Touhou/Flandre fan can't go without knowing this.

[DGneoseeker1]

@flanflandere That drives me god damn insane. I'm not even a Touhou fan. I just like the music. WHY would anyone confuse U.N. Owen was her with this!?

[XDlANIMEfanlXD]

@DGneoseeker1 err just saying, it took me an hour to find this video after going through all the touhou ones -_-

[DGneoseeker1]

@XDlANIMEfanlXD It took me about as long to find as it took you.

And behold, for the reward for our hard work was EAR RAPE.

[diamondolphi]

@flanflandere But... Why do they sound so similar? you can't tell me it's coincidence, so which is based off of which? (I mean the death waltz... obviously not this one)

[kcfob]

@flanflandere

thanks for finally giving me the real information, my friend ;]

[RedRumFace1234]

I'm playing this at my house outside, on Halloween.

[SuperOllywood]

Wait... where do i release the penguins?

[Kikoia7]

He just made art out of sheet music. Literally.

[Chrome9129]

is there a video of this backwards?

[analyzingfunny]

LOVE IT@!@@@

[ftnntf]

うるさいうるさいうるさい

[coldbarefeet]

the 1:21 is a sign showing that john stump figured out how to time travel.

[machomuu]

This sounds almost EXACTLY like U.N. Owen was He-

...

Nevermind.

[pll89]

What was John Stump thinking..

''hmm what should I compose today..how about making a waltz that is humanly impossible (almost?) to play for the lolz :D''

Genius.

[LastManStandingZ]

MOM! D:

[ThEsDroZ]

its scary D:>

[woshiassassin]

there is numbers there??? for what? 1:21

[GiltCipher]

37 people forgot to release the penguins

[ImCalebRosengard]

@NeoCiabatta I found it because it was linked on another Death Waltz video

[lastoflancas]

Could be me, but reminds me of Castlevania :D

[TeSiiTa1920]

OMG!



[PandaLmao]

@NeoCiabatta A lot of people mistook this song with a remix (U.N owen was her) from the game Touhou 

[TheJP3372]

@NeoCiabatta somebody, showed us the "original" version on a synthesia video

[937olter]

play it backwards and it really makes sense

[crazykat3369]

@NeoCiabatta it was a suggested video XDD

[TheCuteChongAlt]

What instrument are you suppose to use for this?

This has won the world's most annoying "music" ever award.

[honeywhisker]

Lessee, I see...

a rollercoaster, 1:21, some spagetti, a rainbow... and the word FINE

[hyperRadiantThunder]

@honeywhisker the "fine" is actually a legit musical term

[honeywhisker]

@hyperRadiantThunder Do you usually write it that big on a score sheet? It's not "fine", it's literally "FINE"

And I know that its legit. I play instruments :P

[PrimaPunchy]

the remix: revolution 1:21

number one point... point... twentyone

[inverseactuality]

The real Death Waltz? This is the only one on youtube that I'm aware of.

[Yumypop]

@NeoCiabatta It's in a "Challenge Accepted" meme on failblog

[cliffordlejonsen]

yes, but did you remove the cattle off the stage?

[Kthuluman]

@NeoCiabatta one word...tumblr 

[LarryBird40]

Doesnt anyone else see the 1:21 in the music?!

[leopold621]

Looks like a wierd drawing or something

[leopold621]

Finaly! One that's NOT U.N Owen was her? remix!

[jessej432]

It's the most beautiful thing i've ever heard! I just... i need a moment....

[Guitareben]

99,999 views...

[100jllp]

Oh, WHAT!!!!!???? There's ANOTHER ONE???? I thought I had the first one down. I ballanced my chair on 2 legs and released the penguins...damn it.....

[kingarthurjacob]

i think he banged his head on the thing he used to write this, and thats how it came out, and or did this blindfolded....

[happyguy5555]

take a look on the note around the bottom, it says "HELPME"

[DarknessBlackKiller]

@happyguy5555 I saw it.

[lycaify]

@happyguy5555 Im pretty sure it says "Blame" LOLOL

[happyguy5555]

@lycaify yeah!, logic logic logic

[lycaify]

@happyguy5555 Haha i dont think any "Logic" is used in the vid at all xD

[happyguy5555]

@lycaify ROFL XD

[JetAurion]

Very funny Stump.

[003Pookie]

Not real. This is actually the second page of John stump's string quartet no. 556 (b) in a minor (motoring accident). Notice how a clump of notes in the bottom left simply says "help me." This piece is intended to be strictly satirical, with no musical structure as you hear in the music played.

[dnd2011]

It's like someone took drugs from Hell to come up with this...It sounds like Final Fantasy had sex with Legend of Zelda and birthed crappy pokemon music on the old Gold and silver 0_o

[Mewkyuu]

Part of the music actually sounded like music o:

[FetrovskyGoogle]

Does it count as a view something like mine, which lasts for as long as I type this message and then get the hell out???

[Johnny123456789x]

Someone finally DID IT. OH MY GOD.

Needs more penguin samples, though.

[Shonbi]

I opened this video in fullscreen so I could see the notes more clearly. My computer crashed. Too much for my computer to handle, I guess.

[CJAnonymous]

Holy fuck.

I never knew it was possible to make an instrumental comedy song.

[CJAnonymous]

Oh my God. That thing... At the bottom.

Is that a rollercoaster?!

[Lunarlove2010]

I didn't really... Understand this... I dunno if it sounds cool or not :/

[Johnny123456789x]

@Lunarlove2010 You have to look at the sheet music, which is the original joke. This is just someone seeing what would happen if it was played.

Look up this piece on Google Images.

[Lunarlove2010]

@Johnny123456789x Ah, yeah, I know it's someone just checking it out, but it's one of those things that's kind of confusing, you know? I mean, I also know it's not meant to sound a certain way, it just... does.

Sorry if I don't make sense ^.^"

[PianoDudexD]

Theres a 1:21 there :O

[j3cu]

@NeoCiabatta memebase



[RockergirlHafelina]

Nice shapes :3

[ThePandasRcute]

WHAT DID YOU SAY ? THIS BULLSHIT SONG MADE ME DEAF!!

[naaaaaagz]

it's not the song from the sheet

[fivethumbsfrank]

sounds like Frank Zappa.

[budabass]

@NeoCiabatta

9gag

[inya7]

At least the music sheet is already a work of art

[BLinDaTbESt]

I get it now. This was never meant to be played, but I do like the title.

[moukmouk22]

@NeoCiabatta Challenge accepted -memebase

[malandradentro]

push 1p start

[doctaword]

I like how Dragonforce is the video up next. How appropriate.

[queenme595]

im pretty sure the composer just drew shapes in the notes then played it

[NeoCiabatta]

@queenme595

John Stump's whole deal was this, what's known as Musical Typewriter or some such shit. So yeah, he actually did just draw notes into sweet patterns such as that rollercoaster, but no he never intended it to be played, by anyone. He has like, 3 other pieces I think.

[keshkirshkinra]

@NeoCiabatta If you read the notes attached to it you will realize its all a big joke. Something technically possible but impossible at the same time. Specifically things like "release the penguins"

[GoldenPickaxe]

@NeoCiabatta You forgot to make the saxes move downstage.

[stickstriker]

@NeoCiabatta ...EPIC. I should do that and get famous, lol.

[CleverDjembe]

@NeoCiabatta

That's true.

But it really is the stupidest idea I've ever heard.

[DaerethBanesfire]

@NeoCiabatta yeah, but it is still harmonically correct and therefore a real song.

[ImCalebRosengard]

@queenme595 that's not playable
