'Game of Thrones' theme song sounds good on just about anything, even calculators

Thanks for the background info, whether or not I knew it already.

Everyone knows you wouldn't be yourself if you wasn't degrading others. For some reason even though it is against site policy, you go without penalty all the time. There is not a day goes by you are not badgering someone. I don't understand why they allow you to stay. You badgered Holdum and accused him of never bringing anything to a topic, while you do the same 90% of the time. That's irony for you again of your own making.

I know this is going to be pulled, so I'll say what's on my mind in return. First of all, most of the reason you can't stand me, is you can't win an argument with me. And that fact really sticks in your craw.

The reason you're defending "holdum323", is because he an antagonist of mine, which takes the load off you. So, why don't you continue to dish out likes to his posts, every time he's involved in a confrontation with me, it will make you feel better.

Speaking of holdum, he's every bit the self righteous, staff butt kissing syncophant you are, and then some.

I mean, taking "Techspot Guardian Fighter" as a title, really places yourself in the highest esteem. Now, put your holier than thou attitude away, tuck your little lightning stripe between your back legs, and run off to the mods and tell them how much better of member you are than me. That's your style, no getting around it.

You can't win an argument with me, you're better than me, you're fighting "for the rtghts of all TS member"s, and that means I should be banned. Did I misinterpret that too?

And BTW, I'm thinking that staff doesn't think that much more of Mr. "Holdum" than I do.

Lest we forget, this all started because I suggested that epic themes, should really be played with epic instrumentation.

You took the bait, hook, line, and sinker, and you haven't shut up since.

Well;, I decided to troll YouTube for more calculator music (BTW "troll" (*) is a term used in sport fishing, not necessarily something which lives under a bridge), and this is what I found out. The YouTuber who posted the GoT theme, is the most prolific "offender", with many other titles copyright violated for your listening pleasure... (y)

However, "Despascito", seems to be the most often attempted. Should anyone wish to join in this trend, here's an upcoming tutorial on that song.

Now member @Bao Nguyen claimed the original GoT theme post was the "most Asian video ever". I call "It's a Small World's" GoT theme, and raise you this intense young Asian lass, as "the most Asian video ever"!

Much as I've honestly tried to embrace the, "15 minutes of fame", for which these individuals are so desperately striving, I couldn't.

That said, I did find this truly epic and monumentally outrageous cover of "The Star Wars Theme", principally played on the bagpipes. I poop you not, this is, honest to god, epic! (y)

Sadly, the video ends with a lissome young lady with an Indian accent, begging for money. Oh well, just hit "stop" as the last notes fade away. You'll be glad you did.

However, if you're hooked on the calculator as a musical instrument, you can subscribe for a ton more of it\ here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbvQHCZJHHS4PJpatQGH-0w

You trolled alright. It wasn't Youtube you trolled. And you did go fishing. You went fishing at Youtube to troll this thread further.

I see your little buddy gave you a like on that. Now climb back on your high horse and get lost.

I still think epic music should be played with epic instrumentation. If you hadn't let your deep dislike, (hatred ?), of me interfere with your curiosity, you might have enjoyed the two videos I posted.

And now the real "un-news", people have been trying to make music on calculators for decades, likely starting with children's songs such as "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star". The tonality was garbage then, as it is today.

I will give the performer a lot of credit for actually playing the harmony (chords) to the song, which is why it required 4 calculators.

Do you know anything about music Cliff, or are you the person you've told me you are, who used to ride around in his car, subwoofer blasting the same 3 note bass line over and over, annoying everybody you passed?
