READ MY POST AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS PAGE. I NEED YOUR HELP. IT'S SOMEWHAT IMPORTANT.


(I wasn't sure if I should post this here or in the websites/message boards section, move it if it's in the wrong place please.)

I posted a couple years ago that I had gotten a Youtube page, and had some videos of me playing videogame music on the piano.
...And then I never uploaded any more videos.
So a couple months ago I started updating again, and I'm trying to do a new video about every two weeks.
So far, I've done 4 more piano videos, The MOTHER3 Love theme, Caramelldansen, Piranha Plant's lullaby (SM64), and The Last of the Goo balls and the Telescope operator (World of Goo).
Also, I have a Facebook fanpage now.
So uh... here's the links:

You can request stuff in the discussion section of the Facebook page, and I might play it.

Also, please just ignore the Sonic Heroes/Powerpuff Girls video.
Seriously.

...And I guess that's it.

EDIT: oh yeah, I'm actually not doing any videos for September, I'll be at the beach. So new videos coming in October!

Hey, I remember seeing a few of these before. You're pretty good.

Oh gosh, the Homestar Runner theme. xD

[TheJorsh]

Thanks!
I'm actually planning on re-recording all of my old videos sometime soon since I'm alot better than I was almost two years ago.

[Dashe]

Caramelldansen's my favorite by far. You wouldn't think it'd translate so well to piano, but it works. Really well, I might add. Pollyanna's really good too, but I'm not exactly sure how that originally sounded.

[TheJorsh]

Thanks!
I had told a few of my friends that I was trying to learn Caramelldansen back then and they said pretty much the same thing. lol
I'm not really sure if I'll be able to do it without making it sound really weird,
but I'm trying to learn the song Magic right now. (The JP MoTB theme)
And since I'm a total fanboy like this,
Here's the original NES version of Pollyanna, This is the version they had in the soundtrack (it has lyrics), And Here's the Smash Bros. version.

[Musashi]

Yeah, I saw your stuff a while back by chance from a video you posted on SM.net, and I gotta say, Jorsh--I'm really impressed! This stuff is great, especially since I've had a renewed respect for the piano as of late.

[TheJorsh]

ALRIGHT.
I thought about making a new topic about this, but then saw Dashe's post in the fanfic section mentioning that it's ok to bump these for new stuffs.
SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO...

(also, I'm gonna try to keep this short, because I don't want to be stuck here typing a big wall-o-text for the next half hour)

In case you hadn't seen it anywhere el-

COUGH

... oh jeez, I gotta get this cough checked out.

...ANYWAY, in case you hadn't seen it anywhere else yet, back in February when the first video of Sonic 4 gameplay was leaked, instead of watching it frame by frame to figure out which badniks would be reappearing, I tried to get clearer audio and then within the next couple of days I uploaded that video of myself playing the music from Splash Hill Zone Act 1.
A while later, the whole soundtrack was leaked, and so I started trying to pick the rest out. Yes, all of it. The entire soundtrack.
I've got almost all of it perfected, and will be uploading Splash Hill Zone 1, 2, 3, and the first boss theme to Youtube hopefully within the next week, now that I'm not too busy and/or sick.

OH WAIT

Expect to hear more Mario, some Kirby, and possibly Glyde's theme after I'm done with Sonic 4.

There, now I'm done.

EDIT: oh yeeeeahhhh, I guess I should probably record Magic sometime soon. Completely forgot about that one.:22:

:18:

I am jealous of your skills.

Wow, that Splash Hill piano cover is excellent. I haven't even heard the tune, but it sounds fantastic. Great job. I'm listening to some of your other stuff now, and it sounds awesome too.

[TheJorsh]

Thanks! ;D
You should definitely try out Sonic 4, it's pretty decent, despite what anyone else has told you so far.

Splash Hill Zone Act 1 (V2) and Splash Hill Zone Act 2 are up now.
I'll be uploading Act 3 and the first boss theme around Saturday.

[Pitch]

The only thing keeping me from buying Sonic 4 is the fact that I have to save up for Legends 3. >__<

(Oh my god, I just realized how awesome that sentence was... What a year. )

Also, holy crap, dude. :18: My hands hurt just thinking about how you make your fingers move like that. New version of Act 1 sounds great, and Act 2 sounds awesome. Seriously, that rocked.

[Shift]

LOVE your Gilgamesh video!! I absolutely adore FFV, what an underrated character/game/soundtrack...

Would love to hear you arrange Spark Mandrill's theme!

[TheJorsh]

Thanks guys!
I might be able to try Spark Mandrill eventually, but it probably won't be near as good as Gilgamesh, since I just picked it out from listening to the FFV Piano Collection CD.
:s
Also I know I said the other two would be up around Saturday, but I got busy with other crap so I'll be recording the songs (hopefully) tomorrow night.

[TheJorsh]

bumping this because of this thing:

[Dash]

Ah, this latest video of yours makes me jealous.

I want to learn the Piano.

But really, great video. I enjoyed a lot!

[TheJorsh]

I've been scheduled to abuse* vladimir Horowitz's Steinway for 15 minutes this Saturday. I plan on recording it.
So far, I've decided to play the obligatory Super Mario Bros. theme, and it's been requested that I play my short crappy cover of Bit Shifter's March of the Nucleotides. Any other suggestions?
I'm trying to get together a list of songs to play that I already know, since I don't really have a lot of time to learn anything new right now.

Off the top of my head, here's a quick list of games I know music from:
Kirby's Dream Land/Squeak Squad
Super Mario Bros./SMB3/SM64/Land/Galaxy
Mario & Luigi: Bowser's inside story (just the boss theme, though)
Sonic the Hedgehog 1/2/4
Legend of Zelda
Misadventures of Tron Bonne
Megaman 1/2 (Stage select, Elecman, Wily's castle)
Wario Land 3
Gyromite
Dr. Mario
Animal Crossing
Final Fantasy V
Donkey Kong (the original, and the '98 Gameboy version)
EarthBound/Mother 3

And here's a couple songs that don't really fit into any category. Memes, maybe?:
Marisa Stole the Precious Thing
Cirno's Perfect Math Class
U.N. Owen was her? (I did a kickawesome cover of this mixed with jingle bells last Christmas, if I have time to practice, I'll play it.)
Caramelldansen
Still Alive
Korobeiniki (Tetris theme)
Another Winter (Anamanaguchi, first stage in the Scott Pilgrim game)
Airman cannot die
Yuki, Muon, Madobe Nite.
Endless Battlefield (Sword of Mana)
