A fabulous version of Johann Pachelbels' 1680 classic Canon in D.

 

The progression chords of Pachelbel's Canon can be found in many modern songs.

"Cryin" by Aerosmith
"Domain" on the album "Lifeforms" by The Future Sounds of London

"End Transmission" album by Snapcase, a band from Buffalo New York (2002)
"Graduation (Friends forever)" by Vitamin C (1999)
"Hook" by Blues Traveler
"I should be so lucky" by Kylie Minogue inspired by Canon
"Ladies and gentlemen we are floating in space" by Spritiualized
"Let it be" by The Beatles
"Machine head" by Bush
"Matchbox 20" by Push
"No woman, No cry" by Bob Marley
"On & On & On" by Catch 22 uses chords similar to those in Canon in D Major (1998)
"One Tin Soldier" by Coven
"Piano Love Songs" by pianist Bradley Joseph (2006)
"Rain and Tears" by Aphrodite's Child based on Canon in D mayor (1968)
Rick Wakeman from the band Yes performs the song on their Wakeman 2000 DVD (2000)
"Salve Regina" by All Angels
"Sk8ter boy" by Avril Lavigne
"Torn" by Natalie Imbruglia

That kid is amazing!  He is up there with Eddie Van H. and Mark Nopfler.  I love rocked-out classics.  There was a popular song back in the '60's(?) called Classical Gas.  I learned it by ear and used it as my classical guitar class final in the early '80's.

Mason Williams wrote Classical Gas.

Also wrote children's poetry.  Such as this classic:

THEM MOOSE GOOSERS
How 'bout them moose goosers, ain't they recluse
Up in them boondocks, goosin' them moose
Goosin' them huge moose, goosin' them tiny
Goosin' them meadow moose in they hiney
Look at them moose goosers, ain't they dumb
Some use an umbrella, some use their thumb
Them obtuse moose goosers sneakin' through the woods
Pokin' them snoozy moose in their goods
How to be a moose gooser, it'll turn ya puce
Get your gooser loose and rouse a drowsy moose

BRILLIANT!

Does anyone know who this kid is?  I'll be looking for an album!  This kid does for guitar what MeatLoaf did for lyrical-dramatic presentation.
