"an update of sorts" sounds to be a piano rendition of a song. i'm just not sure which one yet.

the piano song in "an update of sorts" is an Iron Maiden song, I'm pretty sure. I just don't know which one.

Calling all iron maiden fans.... come on - don't be embarrassed

Artist: Dashboard Confessional Lyrics
Song: The Best Deception Lyrics

I heard about your trip
I heard about your souveniers
I heard about the cool breeze, in the cool nights, and the cool guys
That you spent them with
I guess I should have heard of them from you
I guess I should have heard of them from you

Well don't you see, don't you see that the charade is over?
And all the "Best Deceptions" and the "Clever Cover Story" awards
Go to you
So kiss me hard 'cause this will be the last time that I'll let you
You will be back some day
And this awkward kiss that tells of other people's lips
Will be of service
To giving you away

I heard about your regrets
I heard that you were feeling sorry
I heard from someone that you wish you could set things right between us
Well, I guess I should have heard of that from you
I guess I should have heard of that from you

Well don't you see, don't you see that the charade is over?
And all the "Best Deceptions" and the "Clever Cover Story" awards
Go to you
So kiss me hard 'cause this will be the last time that I let you
You will be back someday
And this awkward kiss that screams of other people's lips
Will be of service to giving you away
To giving you away

I'm waiting for blood to flow to my fingers
I'll be all right when my hands get warm
Ignoring the phone, I'd rather say nothing
I'd rather you'd never heard my voice

You're calling too late, too late to be gracious
And you do not warrant long good-byes
You're calling too late
You're calling too late
You're calling too late

I've found the third one : it's indeed an Iron maiden song, as surrealisticpill said already

The songs title is
Iron Maiden - Can I Play with Madness

BTW: I discovered it by installing this program, and it analyzes your audio(mic or from your soundcard) to guess the song.. could be useful in future (or past) cases: http://www.wildbits.com/files/TunaticSetup.exe

Lyrics for "Can I Play With Madness"

Give me the sense to wonder
To wonder if Im free
Give me a sense of wonder
To know I can be me
Give me the strength to hold my head up
Spit back in their face
Dont need no key to unlock this door
Gonna break down the walls
Break out of this bad place

Can I play with madness
The prophet stared at his crystal ball
Can I play with madness
Theres no vision there at all
Can I play with madness
The prophet looked and he laughed at me
Can I play with madness
He said youre blind too blind to see

I screamed aloud to the old man
I said dont lie dont say you dont know
I say you pay for your mischief
In this world or the next
Oh and then he fixed me with a freezing glance
And the hellfires raged in his eyes
He said do you wanna know the truth son
Ill tell you the truth
Your souls gonna burn in a lake of fire

Can I play with madness
The prophet stared at his crystal ball
Can I play with madness
Theres no vision there at all
Can I play with madness
The prophet looked and he laughed at me
Can I play with madness
He said youre blind too blind to see

Can I play with madness
The prophet stared at his crystal ball
Can I play with madness
Theres no vision there at all
Can I play with madness
The prophet looked and he laughed at me
Can I play with madness
He said youre blind too blind to see

Lyrics to Karma Police

Karma police, arrest this man, he talks in maths
He buzzes like a fridge, hes like a detuned radio
Karma police, arrest this girl, her hitler hairdo, is making me feel ill
And we have crashed her party
This is what you get, this is what you get
This is what you get, when you mess with us

Karma police, Ive given all I can, its not enough
Ive given all I can, but were still on the payroll
This is what you get, this is what you get
This is what you get, when you mess with us
And for a minute there, I lost myself, I lost myself
And for a minute there, I lost myself, I lost myself

For a minute there, I lost myself, I lost myself

All of the music is stunning. My personal favorite is the song playing during "my lonesome update for mid October."

Analysis beyond the aesthetic:

"an update of sorts" - sounds like a single pianist. She/He is really jamming. The piano is technically a percusion instrument.

Both "my lonesome update for mid October" and "URGENT: For My Helper!" have multiple stringed instruments.

Wacky. As soon as I watched the video when it was first posted I recognized the Maiden song, and I posted a comment asking where they found the piano rendition of it. My comment has apparently been deleted.

*jumps outta lurkdom*
It is definately Headboard - Disapears
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/ ... 0/akfk-20/

Lyrics

With no pursuits and no precision
Victim of my own decisions
Looking back I've lost it all
Drove myself into this fall
Stated things I wanted back
To fix myself, to mend my track
Expecations, finished last
Wish I could re-trace my path

Chorus:
It all disappears
When you're not here
It all disappears
It all seems so clear
It all disappears
When you're not here
It all disappears
It all seems so clear

Hindsight blinds, and I'm confined
A total that I've re-defined
The sum of what I thought I was
Was not enough to render cause
To find a way, to find a route
With all these things to figure out
Of who I am, or where I've gone
That I was blind all along

Bridge:
I need you know, more than I have
I can't hold on, please come back

Regrets are endless, pain subsides
Emotions built up deep inside
Content stares fade into a gaze
They last until you turn the page
To start again, to overcome
Repeat your errors one by one
Replaced with nothing, empty space
I wish that I could leave this place

*edit spelling error*

I just googled the lyrics. Then I searched that band on amazon to make sure it was the same song.
