Pachelbel Rant

Comedian and cellist Rob Paravonian rants about having to play Pachelbel's Canon in D, and shows how many pop songs reuse its chord progression. It was recorded live at Penn State.

Brought up in threads about chord progressions and musical copyright as the funny canonical version of the idea.
