There's a constant battle on YouTube about the Korean guy "FunTwo"
that does this, and another kid called "JerryC" They both play the
Cannon quite well, but Jerry C wrote and recorded the background that
FunTwo is using. now reading the comments of the videos is almost like
reading a kindergarten manuscript, only less mature. but visualizing
the comments it's almost like an Army/Navy football game....for
kindergarteners.

This one shows the technique pretty clearly...

Ah crap, now I'm going to have to take the Strat out of the case, tune
it up and show everybody how it's done.

My audience awaits...

"Two" is hailed for being more "technical and cleaner" While Jerry C
is being hailed, not necessarily for his playing , but instead, for
playing with "emotion"

I suppose if you are a technical player, you are a robot with no
feelings. And if you play with emotion, you're a ****** that makes a
lot of mistakes.


go figure.

i think "two" does a better job, but JerryC 's version is more fun.

Pretty amusing I agree.

The funtwo kid makes fewer mistakes though and it's a much cleaner
version - there's also a few minor changes in funtwo's arrangement
that make it seem much better than the original.

Not to say that the original isn't really cool though. :)

I love that technique - I think it's called sweeping or something. Us
old farts can't do it because it takes muscle memory and ours are
remembering something else. :)

In my own humble opinion, I think they both have their merits with the
original getting the nod because of the arrangement.


agreed.
