Still, the original version goes like this: www.youtube.com While the version I heard was something like this (they covered it from the soundtrack of 'Pulp Fiction': www.youtube.com Anyway, I play by ear and had just practised this a couple of times before I recorded it, so bear with me if you hear lots of errors x) PS: Other people might recognise this music from Black Eyed Peas' 'Pump It', though personally, I think that the original version and the Badabimbum cover sound much better :D Any feedback on how I can improve is always welcomed =) (esp. that this is my first time recording myself on video, so I might seem a little stiff :o)yukinareihttp://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/users/yukinareiMusicNot so long ago, I heard this song live, and it was so captivating that I kept on humming it, even in my sleep :P So, just for the sake of fun, I decided to try playing it on my violin to see the results ^_^ Technically, it's a double cover, since I first heard this song when Badabimbumband from Italy played it in Canterbury.
