I do not think you paid a tribute. You copied the beginning from Ben's version, I will agree...but then you turned this song into a "song and dance" with "playing for effect". Entirely different from the 'less is more' approach of Ben that showed off how really beautifull the original song really is, on top of that the song has some really dark undertones (Johnny is DEAD, he won't come marching)..I think you missed the message in Ben's Interpretation, and that of the original song too...

@HugoZeilt yeah, youre right i think. i was just inspired by ben (by the way this is my real name, too =D), and his fantastic transcriptions, to be hounest, i just walked into the church, pushed record and played, without practising or making thoughts about the registration. so i agree with you

Das ist übrigens auch der Soundtrack von "Dr Strangelove or how I have stopped worrying and love the bomb" und wird dort immer gespielt, wenn die B-52-Crew gezeigt wird.

@eltfell stimmt ja.... cooler film! die beste szene am ende: "heil hitler, ich kann laufen!" haha :D sinnlos

@bendasbrot Ich mag am liebten, wie General Turgidson im Lageraum sagt: "I don't say, that we don't get our hair mussed, but I do say: No more than ten to twenty millions killed! Tops!"

OMG this is one of the most fantastic video's i have seen. I wish i could trade some of my talent for yours...

In Lund in Sweden we students use this melody as a drinking song with lyrics about vikings. But this was very nice too!
