UPDATES:
*Changed the ending so it ends pretty tastefully :P
*Changed some stuff around like how the piccolo is now playing the high notes like at the very end, don't want a dead piccolo player you know.
*My precious Tubular Bells now have a *bigger* part (even though you never hear it)
*Took off the piano part, it was driving me nuts in another soundfont. (WHICH I RECOMMEND YOU DO, it sounds so much better with either Merlin_gold or GeneralUser)
Now if only the default soundfont for musescore.com was a mixture of Merlin, GeneralUser, and TimGM. I mean the clarinet and horn sounds wonderful in Merlin/General but it's horrible in TimGM, the Percussion parts are AMAZING in General except for the high hat, Merlin dominates that (Merlin also has the gong). and TimGM sounds full :)
Yeah! I finished it! This is like the 3rd song I finished ಠ__ಠ.
I finished the 2nd part in 3 hours and the first part took 2 months. I'm awful lol.
Anyways, enjoy, comment, I don't own this.

Bars 25 and 31 really grabbed me and I wondered how you would be able to finish and you did a really good job. Title doesn't seem to fit to me, as well as being philosophically inappropriate.
oh thank you :) This is an arrangement (I should've said it in the description huh?) so I can't really change the title haha
Yeah, good job!
Makes me want to dance! Or at least tap my feet.
that is the coolest thing in the world well done
why thank you B) I feel cool now
Haha I was totally clapping along to this :P
yay clapping!!! :D
U GUISE... THERE MAY OR MAY NOT BE A VIDEO SCORE FOR THIS. *WINK WINK* *NUDGE NUDGE*
I love this so much!! I have listened to this like 30 times already haha :D I recorded it on my phone and made it my ringtone.... BANd GeeKs FOReVer!!!!!!
omg seriously?! That is an honor :D I hope you enjoyed it :)
Why have I not commented on this before? It's so awesome I come back to listen to it repeatedly for enjoyment every once and a while. As are all your arrangements. :D
:) well thank you abm!!
LOL Whenever I listen to this, it reminds me of my history teacher. He looks just like Shrek. xD
omg xD well that's awesome haah
Dang, why must all of your arrangements be so awesome??!! :D
talent :p lol jaykayzzz. I just really pick out every little detail and have fun with it. and they're awesome? :D awh shucks *blush*
Awesome!!!! I like yo aarrangements :D
why thank you :)
I feel bad for the percussionist with the tambourine...
awh it's not that bad :) I've given tambourine harder stuff, what they usually do (or what I've seen) is they just hit the first eighth note as an accent and shake it in time, or use their hands on the head :D
I will say I'm not a love song guy, but I love this!
yaaay :)
LOVE it!
why thank you :)
I love this! Great arrangement of a great song. I am not a huge woodwind lover, but the woodwind parts sounds awesome.
Thank you! I hope the brass parts are satisfying though :|
I love this! You have EVERY little detail written in here. I like to see fellow talented arrangers =)
awh I'm talented *blush* XD I love your comments, thank you so much =)
That was really good, I think. Great arrangement of a great song. Keep up the good work!
thank you :)
I'm not a huge woodwind lover, but I have to say, you really know how to make a woodwind part sound awesome. Truly an excellent job! I also love the horn parts you write, they sound awesome.
Heh, thank you so much :) I love me some woodwinds. What I have troubles with though are some brass instruments, so I hope the trombone, tuba, and trumpet parts sound okay cause they're mostly repeated stuff :|
Very nice!
Thanks :)
Oh thank you :) I love the high woodwinds too, considering I'm a flautist! hah I'm happy you enjoy it
omg! i luv ths!!!!!! i especially luv th hi woodwind prts!!!!
Yay! I'm gonna do another one of these. And it's gonna be a Christmas song cause goodness knows how long I take to arrange something.
You're right, the ending gives a much better sense of finality to the piece.
As for the composing/arranging skills, don't be ashamed because you're learning; even experts are still just learning and experimenting. Think of it as your journey to expertise :)
I changed the ending (and some other stuff) :D Please comment more! I need help on my composing/arranging skills.
That was pretty sweet, I've got to say.
Like what was previously mentioned, the ending needs work.
I see that you were trying to remain faithful to the original song, as that is how it ended, but I think it's your right as a composer to make an ending that reflects the change in instrumentation.
Still, great work. I'm jealous :)
Brilliant, but the ending is incredibly disappointing. Whats up with that? I'd fix it if I were you, it subtracts from the overall awesomeness you've got going there.
Ha, you fixed it. Awesomeness.
:) hah yeah! The only reason I added the piano in the early version was just for the arpeggio in the ending, which did not end well lol. So I deleted it! It was so overpowering in merlin_gold (the soundfont I usually use).
