Score
I gave you a five on all, because some dudes say you stole it, but if you made it you deserve a 10 on all, if you didnt you deserve a 0. Thats why I gave a 5, the song is very good!

I see your logic in the rateing. But you can safely give it a 10.
its kinda boring get some instruments
dude its just piano add some instruments !!!
Use your Imagination!
Justifying my bad rating:
Buying the score on a local music store and playing it on your keyboard is not quite an accomplishment, now is it?
Well, my aim is not to rant or scorn, but to encourage you to make your own version of the song. Ad new beats; a new rhythm; some improvisation; use you creativity and make it special!
Because almost every kid taking piano or guitar lessons in Brazil plays the song the exact same way you played. As well as many talented musicians made their own version of it.
I'm sure your intention wasn't to lead people to think the composition was originally yours, but I think you should write the credits for the actual composer so people that enjoyed the song would know where they can get more of it.
So here it goes:
Song: Manhã de carnaval [From the movie: Black Orpheus (1959 Bra)]
Composer: Luís Bonfá
Genre: Chôro/Bossa
Anyway, it was really nice seeing a Brazilian classical on Newgrounds and I'm happy people enjoyed it. I'm looking forward to hear some fresh and version of it.
All in all i think you're an enrichment for the Newgrounds audio portal providing us with all this well played jazz classics! Keep up the good work!
Abraços
