That cheered me up this morning, what an absolute delight.

I click onto threads like this with a little hesitation, but this was superb with a nice touch at the end. All I would suggest is you exchange the water for a pint of beer.

There is a guitar version of this catchy tune on youtube as well that impressed me.



Well done Sir.

I really enjoyed that, you clearly have a lot of talent. Will you post any classical recordings in the near future?

Hey Ben!

Some people have asked me that too, but I think it's too soon for that ATM.
IMO, light pieces (Yiruma, allevi, tierssen,...) are far more popular on youtube than classical music. So I think I'm going to wait with it, until I have enough subscribers.
There is one classical piece I would love to do: Rhapsody in blue, but, that piece is just too long. People will start skipping parts etc, so if I can make a mini version out of it, I will do that sooner or later :)

Yeaaa pirates!!! Cool!  8)  :P
Oh I think for pirates it would have to be more rum than beer  ;D (but I don't think any of those is very healthy)  :P
The ending is really funny!  :D  :)
