Paranoid-cello cover

Sheet music here: http://www.altwo.net/Music/CelloParanoid2.pdf

Just me playing Paranoid on the cello.

Why play it on the cello? When I was learning Paranoid on the guitar, I noticed that the notes in the main rhythm part fit the cello well. Then, I ended up figuring out how to play the whole thing on the cello.

General notes about my playing:
-In the beginning, I play it the GH3 way instead of the original way because I think it sounds cooler and it's easier to play.
-The solo took me about 3 days to figure out the fingering and to get it decently smooth. It's still messy, since my right hand started aching by the time I reached the solo. :P
-I got the backing track here: http://www.guitarbackingtrack.com/play/black_sabbath/paranoid.htm

To make this video, I recorded my cello playing by itself (to get the cleanest sound) using WavePad. While playing, I listened to the backing track with earphones so it doesn't interfere with the recording. At the same time, I recorded the video using a digital camera. Then, I synced my cello recording and the backing track with Audacity, and then exported the combined audio. Finally, I used Windows Movie Maker to add the titles and put together the recorded video (now muted) and the final audio.

Hmm. The MegaUpload link still works for me, but I reuploaded the sheet music to another place (see video description). Good news is that there isn't any waiting time now. :)
