[tvbooklover]

[waltribeiro]

@tvbooklover omg amazing

[kayllo15]

this is so awesome. i love your channel. can i request a B-52's song please?

[MrBarelyRealistic]

Love it

[Williamlumb11]

Bought it on iTunes (:

[ForOrchestra]

@iiKayla143 really? i'll have to take a listen

[AgnesandKatie]

where do you get a whole orchestra to play your music?

[thesefilmswhatiwatch]

Buying your music on iTunes was definitely a sound investment! Delighted with it :D

[ForOrchestra]

@thesefilmswhatiwatch glad you liked it. thanks for the support, means so much to me!

[ForOrchestra]

@iiKayla143 if jessie j comes out with a new track, something more recent, then I'll be all over it

[eXtremous2]

Why don't you record the orchestra instead of showing this...

Nice music though :) Are we allowed to use it for our own videos if we link this channel?

[ForOrchestra]

@eXtremous2 if its cool with the original publisher, and it's non commercial, and you attribute credit to me in the video, then it's cool with me

[yr96justice]

HAHA your handwriting is awesome :)

[ForOrchestra]

@yr96justice i used to do calligraphy... years ago!

[curlytopgurl]

seriously, this is awesome!!! memory with this song: hearing a friend sing ALL the lyrics to this song when playing band hero. he sure surprised me!

childhood memories...the pokémon craze, the furby fad, and nsync vs backstreet boys.

[ForOrchestra]

@curlytopgurl i never got into the pokemon craze, but yea that was intense. i loved the show.

[curlytopgurl]

@ForOrchestra: I didn't get into the phase either, i just remember all the other kids. more of a girly girl...

[LaughinWarheads]

This is awesome!!! And has anyone told you that you look like Mike Posner?

[ForOrchestra]

@LaughinWarheads yea but i don't see it. if you saw me in person, you'd realize my ginormous nose defeats that clause :)

[SianRhiannon91]

making motherfucking huge ass pirate ships out of lego with my big brother. ohhh the nineties. ps love this!

[ForOrchestra]

@SianRhiannon91 thanks yo!

[dayumxjeanah]

Um, this is PURE flipping genius! Like I just can't even get over it. This and the thong song. I could listen all day.

[Shadowlord757]

Absolute genius.

[ForOrchestra]

@Shadowlord757 thanks Shadow!

[XxOhMyJoshxX]

@ForOrchestra What I meant when I said all I can do is smile was when I heard this song it made me happy and gave me goosebumps and when an orchestrated version of a song truely gives someone goosebumps all they can do is smile... :) P.S. My favorite childhood memory was playing games on my old blue nintendo 64 with my older brothers

[ForOrchestra]

@XxOhMyJoshxX they had a blue nintendo 64? Where the hell was I?

[XxOhMyJoshxX]

@ForOrchestra Yeah it was like a light blue and see through and blue controller like that also

[XxOhMyJoshxX]

All I can do is smile :)

[ForOrchestra]

@XxOhMyJoshxX smile. it confuses people :)

[GuitTuba]

If I were in an orchestra, I would be all over every one of your arrangements. Thank you for helping me get through two and a half weeks of winter break without completely dying of boredom.

[ForOrchestra]

@GuitTuba no prob. do you play guitar and tuba?!

[GuitTuba]

@ForOrchestra I do! But I'm much better at tuba than I am at guitar!

[masteryodadobby]

Thank you, I'm a 90's kid, just, but I don't really remember this, but the comments really take me back to a time nearly forgotten.

[ForOrchestra]

@masteryodadobby yea me too. It takes me back and it awesome to talk with everyone about it

[shockmore101]

why do you not talk oh and i forgot abot your mom your mom is a big fat baby

[shockmore101]

@shockmore101 

[ForOrchestra]

@shockmore101 i can't talk because there's music playing.

[QueenMagslieofSweden]

You have really pretty handwriting.

[ForOrchestra]

@QueenMagslieofSweden why, thank you!

[GenevieveAileen]

YESH!



[ForOrchestra]

@GenevieveAileen haha

[skel8tor]

[Clutching head, running from room] Smeagol: I'm not listening... I'm not listening...

Actually I blasted this song from my Ice Cream van in the 90's, good memories thanks.

[ForOrchestra]

@skel8tor yea this song was HUGE in the 90's

[davebo357]

Once again you've taken a song I can't stand and made it a pleasure to listen to. You might want to get the amazon link up though, I had to search for it manually.

[MrJoeyJJ]

OMG mate. That was classic. Loved it. Good luck from Down Under. Jeff

[ForOrchestra]

@MrJoeyJJ i want to visit! amazing over there

[vidfancr]

Great!! Love it!!! You look so cute on the video! xD

[ForOrchestra]

@vidfancr my lip was swollen really bad, so I'll take any compliment I can get. haha

[Miriam89]

Awesome! But such a waster of paper! ;DDD Just kidding! Still awesome!

[ForOrchestra]

@Miriam89 believe it or not, I actually used the back of the index cards I used in the previous video. Pictures to prove it.

[Miriam89]

@ForOrchestra Then you're just even more awesome, Walt :)*

[matteishmakeup]

i love all of these so much - youre amazing! also, your handwriting is phenomenal :)

[ForOrchestra]

@matteishmakeup wow, 2 handwriting compliments, and 1 arrangement compliment so far from everyone. Maybe I'm in the wrong business? :)

[thomflan]

OH man I love this arrangement, so how big is the Orchestra Mr Ribeiro? oh and remember things like Yo-ho diablo and the craze with Tamogotchis (I hope that's how it's spelled, lol)

[ForOrchestra]

@thomflan it's arranged for full orchestra - so 60-100 musicians. anyway i have no recollection of what tamogotchis are. i remember tickle me elmo, but that's about it.

[drekfletch]

Pogs. I'd forgotten all about them. Because I think it needs to be better known, ABBA's Summer Night City. Youtube has the "unreleased full version," as well as a "Summer Night City, Live" that provides another variation. Liner notes from Thank You for the Music boxed set tell how they were never really happy with how it ended up.

ps. You should plug your Kickstarter project.

[drekfletch]

@drekfletch somehow, I forgot to put in "you should do."

[ForOrchestra]

@drekfletch i did but no one funded it :(

[drekfletch]

@ForOrchestra @ForOrchestra I didn't see it on any of the recent vids. I discovered it when AFP tweeted it. I get paid tomorrow, so expect another backer.

[sloppyscott182]

My childhood! It reminds me of when we got our first real house, and when the kid down the street stole my pogs!

[ForOrchestra]

@sloppyscott182 no way! once this kid and I got into a HUGE fight over a pog, and it resulted in him throwing me up against a wall and a crazy fight ensued. The next day, best friends.

[KerraSeayWhat]

You are so adorable and talented. Love it! :)

My childhood... Sailor Moon, Britney Spears, and Harry Potter. It was awesome. <3

[innocentsparkle]

Random: I love the way you write your "M"s.

[ForOrchestra]

@innocentsparkle priorities :)

[HunterCR]

I was a huge Spice Girls fan! Wannabe reminds me my childhood too, well, in fact, i´m still a Spice Girls fan! :-)

[ForOrchestra]

@HunterCR who isn't?

[xpaige87]

THIS IS THE BEST THING

[ForOrchestra]

@xpaige87 ever?

[xpaige87]

@ForOrchestra of course!

[krumpetstudios]

I wish I could buy this song enough times for a Turkey diner for Walt and the orchestra!

[ForOrchestra]

@krumpetstudios i'll trade that in for a picture of a turkey. i have no pictures of turkey's at the current moment

[mAdgAmer4127]

AMAZING

[fluteybird]

This is really really great. :)

[ForOrchestra]

@fluteybird thanks flutey! i LOVE your screenname

[CJDA1988]

Amazing! My childhood was the spice girls, 5ive, SNES, Pogs, the birth of playstation and pokemon cards!

[ForOrchestra]

@CJDA1988 what is 5ive? Have I been robbed of a possible childhood memory?

[CJDA1988]

@ForOrchestra 5ive were a band around at similar time to the spice girls, maybe just after, they were a group of five guys (ingenious naming there!) Youtube the megamix if you want to get a feel for them

[nxea170201]

Great vid :) I remember my Sega Megadrive & Sonic :D

[ForOrchestra]

@nxea170201 awww man megadrive. Do you remember the 32x, and how there was that one video game that got banned for adult content? This is wayyyy before the GTA controversy. I'm talking like 1998.
