This is where art rock comes from, and should be discouraged.

Links two and three were too cheesy to stand. They made me feel a little ashamed to be a pianist.

You should always be ashamed to be a pianist. And proud, too. Comes with the territory.

Hey! Here's a Zac playing it on guitars! Two of 'em! Guitars I mean. Not two Zac's. Although, I'm a Zac! And he's a Zac! So there's two Zac's! And two guitars! Only he's playing both of them and I'm just typing.
That's funky isn't it? ...nope. Actually this guy's putting me to sleep. But he's a Zac! That's somethin'!
I think this song is slowly driving me mad! Sideways! I may be talking to myself in this thread. I may have to blow my brains out if I hear Fur Elise again! Too bad there's no gun within reach. Guess I'll just bang my head against the keyboard until all that's left is a bloody stump.
Lalalalala la la la la la Make it stop!!! It's bringing tears to my eyes! AARGGH!!
*runs around in circles screaming to the tune of Fur Elise and then crashes into a wall*
...mommy!
*thud*

I dunno. That last guy was channeling Chick Corea (sorta), and that's always a good thing. He just needs a real Fender Rhodes instead of a dinky synthesizer.

No, this is where art rock comes from, as well as where it ends.
And if you still think it's bad, you haven't listened to it enough yet.

I think I might have to pull the audio on delmoi's link and add it to my mp3 player. I liked that a whole lot.

"Funky" in the skunky, stinky sense: In Taiwan, the garbage trucks play Fur Elise to alert the citizens that it's time to haul out thier trash.

I always thought it was a particularly strange kind of Skinnerian conditioning. Plus, I always missed the damn trucks by like two minutes.

Y'know... delmoi's link actually made me head to my piano, pull out my classical books & try playing. Which I haven't done in about a year. So that's pretty dang cool. It was fun.* :)
*Too bad I haven't gotten any better at the piano while not playing it, though.
