Teenagers all over the world want to learn how to play the electric guitar like FunTwo. He is the kid who posted a video on Youtube of the song Canon in D and has since had over seventy two million views (72,000,000) to date, April 2010. The popular name of the arrangement is Canon Rock.
For beginners who want to learn how to play like him, the place where Funtwo got online guitar lessons was just the springboard that launched him into rigorous, disciplined practice. Within a few short years he became known around the world for his accomplishments because of his dedication to master the instrument. Funtwo says; “practice, practice, practice” on one of his Youtube channels where the Cannon song is available for viewing.
The South Korean Kid, Lim Jeong-hyun captured the world with his lightning fast style on the electric guitar and became an overnight sensation. His mysterious video appearance is the number one music video of all time on Youtube.
Anyone who wants to learn to play the electric guitar like Funtwo is going to have some challenges. Countless hours of finger exercises and learning guitar scales is only the beginning. In order to master a song like Canon Rock, a musician has to spend countless hours practicing how to play power chords and scale patterns on the fret board.
Here’s the thing though, some people are just naturally gifted and Funtwo is one of those musical geniuses who has been entrusted with an amazing talent to shred the electric guitar. It caught me by surprise when he stated on an interview that he did not want to have a carrier in music. He is actually attending college to get a degree in computer science.
Why did the video of Fun-Two playing the song Canon in D sweep the world by storm? One can only call it destiny. I believe that things like this happen for a divine purpose. Think about it, some kid decides to not even show his face, is surrounded by an amazing bright light in his bedroom and busts out a Youtube number one hit on the electric guitar that gets millions of views.
There are no amounts of guitar lessons that will launch someone into that sort of fame on purpose in such a short time. It must be fate.
Not long after millions of viewers watched and hundreds of thousand of people commented on his Cannon in D guitar shred, he appeared with the great Joe Satriani on the Youtube’s first annual awards show. They opened their performance with Surfing With an Alien and finished with screaming electric guitars playing Cannon in D. Fun-Two obviously had the lead guitar part as Joe Satriani humbly played rhythm on his electric.
Funtwo has appeared on numerous TV broadcasts since his unexpected fame hit the music industry by surprise. His electric guitar arrangement of Canon Rock has been feature in several well know newspapers and radio stations.
According to Wikipedia; “Lim’s cover of Canon Rock has been mentioned on CNN, 20/20, The New York Times[4], and National Public Radio[5], in addition to MBC news, CBC Radio, KBS news, and other South Korean news stations.”
In the small circle of my friends who play guitars, one of them is learning how to play Cannon Rock. Many young people on Youtube have posted their versions of the Funtwo arrangement, but none come close to the excellence that he demonstrates in his electric guitar masterpiece.
Getting lessons from where FunTwo learned to play the guitar would certainly speed up the process a lot. Any time you take formal guitar lessons it’s easier to learn a particular song from someone who has already mastered it.
The author operates a website where used guitars online are advertised. On the home pager he displays the famous video by Funtwo playing the Canon Rock song.
