Hello everyone! Something different this week!?
So not only has it been a little while since I've done an acoustic cover, I have also been wanting to cover this song for a very long time. So I thought I'd take this as an opportunity to do both at the same time!
My Neighbor Totoro is really important to me. Most of you probably don't know this but I learned to play the ocarina way before I started learning guitar. It was nearly 15 years ago I think where I got my first 12 hole ocarina and started to learn Ghibli songs. My Neighbor Totoro was the second song that I learned back then and now I play it purely out of muscle memory as I played it so much hahaha.
The reason my channel is called gabocarina96 is actually because it was supposed to be an ocarina cover channel back then. I uploaded two Ghibli covers to YouTube in 2008 or 2009. They stayed there for a good while but I was playing over instrumental versions of the originals so... The audio eventually got muted on them so I deleted the videos. One of those videos was My Neighbor Totoro.
We're now many years later and this same channel has turned into what it is today, which is hard to believe when I think about it but... I thought it was time I'd finally cover this song for real playing every track from scratch. I hope you'll enjoy my take on it!
See you next time!
