I love this song. I'm learning it on guitar. It's not very hard, actually, the thing is however the fingerings and spreads are complicated...

There was a video of a guy "playing" this tune with his hands and a Digitech whammy pedal a few years ago. It's pretty damned funny, but gets remarkably old after a minute or so.

Much better is this version on piano, by a kid (djtrousdale (http://www.youtube.com/user/djtrousdale)) that claims he figured out the tune by ear.

That dude is extremely annoying. Probably a chronic masturbator... :biggrin:
