the tempo is a bit arbitrary , as he is not in time with the metronome most of the time , except perhaps in his head ....and since the flight of the bumblebee is all a , mostly, chromatic scale , its all a bit .. so what.,, in my opinion

watch a bit of this solo and tell me which is better ,, and which is more musical ..... sometimes the solo is just one note , usually the tonic ...i think its called ,,''style''

sure man. first vid is just about stamina and speed and coordination. just for fun. (and it somehow also really sounds like a crazy bumble bee flying around imo) that vid isn't so much about musicallity or feeling, etc. we shouldn't compare apples and oranges ;)
