Thoughtless (Evanescence version) on Mario Paint Composer

The live Evanescence version of Korn's "Thoughtless", as done in Mario Paint Composer 2.0 with Cat333Pokémon's Mario Paint Real 2.0 soundfont.

Don't complain that it's not based on the original. I prefer the Evanescence version not just because I'm a fan of them, but also because the emotion singer Amy Lee pours into it makes it that much awesomer. Everyone's entitled to their own opinion, and this is mine.

I had to blend octaves a bit with the guitar and simplify that track besides because of how low the original is plus the five-notes-per-beat limit. And I tried adding percussion (besides just before the music speeds up) once everything else was worked out, but the cymbals sounded WAY too loud, so I left it out.

And no, I don't know why the video (but not the audio) skips a bit in the beginning.

Tip for easily getting sound with HyperCam: Get a double-tipped input wire with ends like a headphone plug, and run it from your harddrive's headphone jack to its microphone jack. You won't hear a thing, but Hypercam will record the sound just fine.

Time: Several hours since I had to figure out said guitar blend and redo some sections a few times. I lost track.

I'd like to tell you that the orignal song, Thoughtless is by korn. Evanescence only sang it for the Fallen Concert. :D

Thanks, but if you'd read the full description, you would've seen that I already know it was originally a korn song.

And regardless of when Evanescence sang it, it's also on their live "Anywhere But Home" album.

Oops sorry, I didn't read the description (force of habit)
