To celebrate the first SIX THOUSAND subscribers to my Youtube Channel, for the first time in Human History, here is Neil Young's legendary hit "Like Hurricane"...ON AN ANCIENT GREEK LYRE!!! Not as surreal as this initially seems... 1) Firstly, "Like a Hurricane" sounds uncannily like the oldest surviving fragment of written music so far found in Human History! As I demonstrate in the into to the performance, this song sounds surprisingly like the 3400 year old "Hurrian Hymn Text H6" (as heard in my most watched Youtube video, entitled "The Oldest Written Music in History"). 2)"Like a Hurricane" is actually written in one of the original ancient Greek modes, the Hypodorian Mode (equivalent intervals as A-A on the white notes of the piano, which was misnamed the "Aeolian" mode in the muddled up Middle Ages!). Thanks for subscribing to my channel, and as always, enjoy the music!!!
