Now let's cross our fingers and hope the embedding worked...
Looks like it did. Yay! Skip ahead to 2:00 if you want to see the better parts of the video.

This is just something I decided to throw together in all of 5 minutes (if look at the clock in the background), and I know there are a lot of mistakes, but I had never tried to play the song before I pressed "record" on my camera. In other words, it's all improvisation. I hope you enjoy it, it's not much, but there aren't very many GREAT Splash Blue piano arrangements, and I decided to put one out there just for fun.

As for what I do in terms of music, I'm a piano hobbyist. I don't take lessons, and I can't read sheet music, so I just do stuff by ear. And believe me, this Splash Blue music was in my ears for a while...

Mega Man 9 is a great game, don't you think?

I know a LOT of video game music on the piano, in fact, I know how to play ONLY video game music. If you have some game music you'd like me to transpose and post a video of, feel free to post something about it in the comments. This is what I do in my free time (when I'm not studying or actually PLAYING a video game), so if I'm interested in the game, I'll most likely try and do my best to get the music down.

See you all later!

This video is made of awesome and win.

May I suggest the Onett theme from Earthbound for your next piece? Or, seeing as you're currently playing Cave Story, the music in Mimiga Village would be fine too.

Apart from the fact that you seriously lack fashion sense, you sir, are great.

Welcome to the 'Toid, don't suck, be cool, don't troll, and of course, have a great day. :)

Nice :]
I haven't played my piano for a couple of years now. I used to figure out video games music by ear as well -- it's fun stuff.

Either way, welcome!

Great job! I love your piano playing and your avatar. Speaking of, I bet you could rock a pretty great version of the Mimiga Town music from Cave Story.
