Line 8: The piece is the trope namer for the [[Pachelbel's Canon Progression]]. Cellists detest this piece because it involves playing the same 8 note progression 27 times without change or pause. ~~===~~ {{tropelist\|It has been used in the following works: ~~===~~}}▼ ~~----~~ * "Lullaby" by the string quartet [[Bond (music)\|bond]] is an adaptation of the song.▼ ▲=== It has been used in the following works: === ▲* "Lullaby" by the string quartet Bond is an adaptation of the song. * The influence of the piece can be seen in many of [[Emilie Autumn]]'s songs, since as a child she would mentally play the piece each night to suppress her auditory hallucinations (as quoted from [[wikipedia:Emilie Autumn\|The Other Wiki]]). A few bars of the melody are shoehorned into "Save You", and the first half of the ostinato is used in "Ancient Grounds" and "Let the Record Show". * It features in and is one of the themes of ''[[Kanon]]'', which names itself after the piece. * In the anime ''[[~~Lucky Star (Anime)\|~~Lucky Star]]'', Tsukasa's ringtone sounds like a cheerier version of this. * In the ''[[Neon Genesis Evangelion]]'' film ''Evangelion: Death and Rebirth'', a recurring motif of the three main characters playing the piece is used to punctuate the recap portion. * Comedian Rob Paravonian famously made aan infamous [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JdxkVQy7QLM rant] about the piece, noting how boring it is to play the bass line as the cellist in the ensemble, as well as [[Pachelbel's Canon Progression\|the progression's]] ubiquity in popular music (although [[Square Peg, Round Trope\|few of the examples given actually use the progression]]). * ''[[South Park]]'' uses [[The Jimmy Hart Version]] in the scene where Cartman has a tea party with his stuffed toys. * [[Tay Zonday]]'s arrangement "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RSCzMT8IMME Canon In Z]." * [[Trans -Siberian Orchestra]] has ''two'' songs based on it: "Christmas Canon" from ''The Christmas Attic'', and "Christmas Canon Rock" from ''The Lost Christmas Eve''. * ''[[The Legend of Zelda\|Pachelbel's]] [[Incredibly Lame Pun\|Ganon]],'' an [[~~Overclocked~~OverClocked Remix]] track by djpretzel that rearranges Zelda's Lullaby and ''[[Ocarina of Time]]'s'' opening theme in an R&B style, with this as its backing track. {{reflist}} [[Category:German Media]] [[Category:~~Pachelbels~~Pachelbel's Canon]] [[Category:Music]]
