Where the original song was a hard rockin' battle between Zowie's discordant guitar and U-1's melodic guitar, this is a more mellow orchestral rendition between an oboe and a clarinet. I had a lot of fun changing it from heavy rock to something that's not very heavy at all.

Some of the clarinet runs reflect the way U-1 played his guitar in the original song, but most of the oboe runs are all made up. I can't really pick out anything musical in Zowie's playing, so I tried to make something that fit thematically even though it didn't sound the same.
