One of my sensei from my first trip to Japan, Nishikawa-sensei, gave me a great CD featuring the acoustic guitar duo Depapepe. I fell in love with this band, and have been doing my best to learn their songs ever since.
This is my cover of the song "Wedding Bell" from their album "Let's Go!"
I know the cover isn't perfect. I did my best to make it as good as I could in -one- take. Also, the sound quality isn't that nearly as good as Depapepe's. Why? Well, frankly, I recorded this on a $120 Mitchell acoustic-electric guitar, a $50 Digital Reference microphone (because the pickup on the guitar makes it sound like an electric guitar) and a Fast Track USB recorder.
I apologize about the fact that you cannot see the fingers on my right hand in the rhythm part. I didn't feel like doing another retake after I was done playing it for the umpteeth time. Also, the videos are -very- slightly out of sync with the music (fractions of a second). I apologize.
Anyways, enjoy!

This is one of my favorite songs that I learned of while I was in Japan. I did not make the backing track, but thats definitely me playing the lead.
This is taken from various sources. The original song was from Mega Man 2/Rockman 2, and is simply the Wily Stage 2 theme. Then it was turned into a hit video, with vocals. Then into this instrumental version. The title, translated into English, means One Quadrillion. Its part of the lyrics to the song.
In kanji, it is: 億千万.
億 (Oku)= 100,000,000
千 (Sen)= 1,000
万 (Man)= 10,000
The way that Japanese numbers work, is that youd take the numbers and multiply them. If you do that, you get:
1,000,000,000,000,000
And uh, everyone spelling it Okkusenman? Thats wrong.
I added a solo where one repetitive-sounding part of the verse once was. And theres a solo section also already part of the track itself.
Friends Ive shown this to have made comments about me constantly looking to the right. I have no idea why I did that during filming, I guess I was just not paying attention and getting in the mood of the tune. XD
Enjoy!
Edit: Heres where I got the tab if anyone wants it.
