If you’re a regular to my site then you would know that, as a rule, I don’t post youtube videos (as is a very common practice on blog sites)… but today I’m making an exception.
I found this freaky video the other day… it’s of a young guy playing (for want of a more accurate description) his guitar in his bedroom… if you like music, guitar, talent or creativity… you’ll dig this.
It is extraordinary.
Even if you don’t like guitar, watch it.
You know how I’m always encouraging you guys to explore your creativity and milk your potential?.. well, this dude’s doin‘ it.
As you watch, keep in mind that he only picked up a guitar for the first time six years ago.
If you have slow Internet… watching this may prove to be an exercise in frustration… hope you get to see it though; it’s worth it.
You may have to hit the pause button for a minute while it buffers (whatever the heck that is) and then hit play again…..
See you tomorrow.
Peace.

Peace,Craig. Will definitely watch the video at coffee break.
PS: I am envious of your long posts, and today, whammo, you deal the short one.
Namaste,
Christine
Couldn’t agree more Craig. If this young man can find a bunch of people with this kind of Talent we’d have a live group the likes of which we have seen nothing since ‘Queen’. In fact all through his work I was reminded of the talent of this band. None of the remakes have ever made the grade in the same way as the original. Thanks for posting it. I enjoyed watching those fingers fly!
Hi Christine.
Craig Harper… short post… doesn’t really fit does it?
Change is good right?
Enjoy the video.
Hi Jen.
Yeh.. he’s kinda good isn’t he?
And yes, Freddie and the boys did totally rock.
See ya.
FANTASTIC!!!
I walked down the aisle to marry by baby to “Canon”.. sounded nothing like that.. nowhere near as cool!
Isn’t just so great that anyone especially young guys find a passion and just go for it! All power to him, my son would call this a face melter, totally shredded.
Hello Yummy Mumm…
If you walked down the aisle to THAT version… you woulda been rockin’.. and your bloke woulda been playing air guitar!
Hey Paul.
Face melter?
Totally shredded?
Dude.. ya making me feel old!
Peace.
Hm, I’ve already seen this quite a while ago. That probably means I spent too much time on YouTube.
This is pretty nice though. Oh, and if you like stand-up comedy, there’s actually a routine about Pachelbel’s Cannon in D:

Hey Kelvin.
Clearly I’m behind the times.
You know it’s still 2006 in Australia right?
Checked out your comic/singer guy; very funny.
And clever.
Enjoy your day (night) Buddy.
I’m lost for words and that doesn’t happen very often. Great post, thank you for sharing.

Hi Lia..
You’re very welcome.
Thanks for the plug on your site.
You’re ace.
Cheers.
Holy wow. That was just incredibly cool.
Hi Lornadoone…
toldya.
wow what can I say? This guy has so much talent and it’s obvious he has a real passion for music. Is he going to create his own group and go on tour, because that would be some concert?
Clearly I’m behind the times too, because this is my first taste of a you tube video.
I’d be interested to hear if this musician plans to remix anymore great tunes. I think this style could be described as cool classical rock.
Rebecca
Hey Rebecca.
Aaah, dunno.
But…. if he does go on tour, you and I will be in the front row!
If you want to see more of him.. do a search in youtube on ‘funtwo’.
Peace.
WOWWWW !! That’s not how it sounds when I play it on the keyboard !!
Hey Tina.
Yep, wow.
Big wow.
Peace.
hey craig!
Draft him now for the cult before the fame, fortune and reality TV dillute his raw uninhibited talent. This is really awesome! I wonder if I could learn to play the sax or rock climb…. hmmm the posibilities are endless, aren’t they…. how many days till you get to visit the property…. your dominions are anxious!
Tami
Hey Tami.
Don’t know if he can speak English.. but I guess he doesn’t need to; he can just play.

Gidday mate,
Your going to have to save this one to disc for me. Patience is something I am not full of and I did not get to hear the whole thing. Get your computer guru to burn one for me. Talk to you soon. Luv from your mate.
Amazing fingers!!!
