For the Pirates of the Caribbean Fan

I've uploaded two videos of me playing "He's A Pirate" (the theme of PotC) on piano to YouTube. The first one is [slightly] slower, but has fewer mistakes:

Which obviously means the second one has more mistakes and is [slightly] faster:

Sorry about the quality; it's the best I could do with the equipment available (a digital camera). :P

Very nice. :yes: I don't see any sheet music, did you play that by ear. Either way, nice job. :thumbs:

I probably should've mentioned that in the first post; I had sheet music while I learned it, but ended up memorizing it.

Awesome! I recently tried to play FFX music by ear, thanks to Mavs map! I'm, kindof succesful, but not like this! Great job man!

My sister played "The Medallion Calls" at her graduation. She practiced it so much that we almost got sick of it. It still sounded great though.

Nice job. :)

Thanks guys; I really appreciate the comments.

Oh, I got the At World's End sheet music book, so you can expect more like this in the future.

Huh, that's odd; it worked for everyone else. But I'll look into it.

Edit: No, it should be working; I just checked.

Doesnt work for me either..

This is what it says:
Hidden/Spoiler:
The video you have requested is not available.

If you have recently uploaded this video, you may need to wait a few minutes for the video to process.

Alright, now it should work. Can someone verify that for me though? I'm using an iPod Touch, and can't tell if it works or not since the only YouTube videos that work on the iPod Touch are the ones that appear in the YouTube application on the iPod Touch. These two videos don't show up in the application, so I can't tell.

What I did was change a lowercase 'L' to a capital 'I'; they look exactly the same on this iPod Touch in the URL bar. So that's probably why it didn't work before.
