TitanKyojin
This needs more upvotes. Because of a few people mistitling U.N Owen was her as Death Waltz there's so much confusion over the two pieces.

Very cool. Although (as it mentions in the video link description), the sheet music pictured isn't the score being played.

Really? Wow, that is so disappointing.

Don't be! The music was unreal (thank you!) and that sheet music is hilarious. The composer pokes fun at almost every quirk in music.

Ive spent 4 hours watching videos of touhou and still have no idea what the actual fuck is going on.....
DurtontheRuineroflivesDestroyerofFamiliesandGoodMorals
DOOM99 , you sent me on a terrible quest filled with regret by giving me this information D,:
Zahaele
Touhou is a bullet hell shooter with a very very large cast of characters over all the games, most of whom are lolis. It takes place (1/?)
Zahaele
In Gensokyo, which is some Japanese fantasy world where there are all these demons and the like. Each game, there's some incident (2/?)
Zahaele
That happens and the protagonists have to resolve it, and then they usually end up drinking tea with whoever started it in the end. (3/?
Zahaele
The game has tons of characters, and the fanbase has boatloads of memes and in-jokes about them, so there's bound to be some weirdness.(4/4)
Jardok
I fucking KNEW it sounded like Tohou, goddamn
D00M99
I'm leaving this here because people suck at reading Youtube descriptions on a normal basis, and I hate this misinformation.
McAllisterFawkes
To be fair, the youtube description starts to say it IS the Death Waltz and then apparently changes its mind.
InnocentValley
You're good. Because I listened to that and that is no waltz, the beat is too off for it to be any waltz.
alex10175
Mmhmmm agreed
SovietWrench
I can't find the real Death Waltz, and now I have Death Waltz Blue Balls
WhimsicalCalamari
If you want something that sounds like you'd expect the sheet music to sound like while still being music, check "Circus Galop"
Neziwi
Yeah I recognized this as U. N. Owen Was Her? and was about to link it too...
Zebs
THANK YOU. I was going to start this exact same rant.
malachitedragon
A horrific orgy of noise in my earholes?
XmasFuture
More confusing than the sheet music, however, is how someone could come up with THAT name for a song.
lolzomg123
Japan, duh?
AWanderingMan
It's a reference to Agatha Christie's "And Then There Were None", wherein someone with the alias U. N. Owen ("Unknown") starts killing (1)
AWanderingMan
other people at a secluded estate off one by one. Which, considering the character the song is for is a centuries-old vampire character (2)
AWanderingMan
who's pretty crazy, is located in a secluded estate, and whose powers are, I'm quoting the wiki here, "Destroying Absolutely Anything" (3)
AWanderingMan
it starts to make a tiny bit of sense. Oh, and she looks like a preteen with christmas lights stuck to her back. You know, 'cause Japan. (4)

The song is called "UN Owan was her?" from the touhou project. NOT the death waltz. Thank you very much.

Fun fact: dodging the "notes" raining down on the piano video would still be easier than playing touhou.

wahllamaface
all I thought was Castlevania.
RedatDawn
If it had a lower tone to it, it could pass off as a Dark Souls 2 boss theme. The boss would have to be chaotic and hectic to match.
anyx1
I never found really any of the bosses to be as crazy fast paced as the first game, only one I've had issues with so far was the rotten.
anyx1
Also Dark soul boss themes are usually more crashing and epic, this song fits more in a bullet hell type game.
cheddarhat
And in fact that's precisely what Touhou is.
