Just thought I'd inform you all, the piano piece is by an artist named 'Aphex Twin', and the song is 'Avril 14'. It's a beautiful song, and the full version is better than this will ever be.
remember the Iranian revolution 1979 there was great excitement about a change sweeping the Mideast. but democracy left Iran, try not to end up like them, being murdered and tortured and imprisoned even more than under the previous regime, they trusted extreme Islamists who pretended to be their allies while it was convenient, and didn't see the turnaround coming until it was far too late.
As a matter of fact, I think 99% of us Iranians think the government in Iran is crap right now. I have family who lives there and we can't even risk going to visit them anymore. It's pathetic. But this video is hilarious!
The beat is irrelevant, the piano riff is a sample, simple as.
See Vanilla Ice - Ice Ice Baby and it's bassline sampled from 'Under Pressure' by Queen to see what can happen when you release a song using a sample without permission.
So yea, as long as they don't release it commercially, they'll be OK.
I am Iranian and I don't take this personally at all....They are making fun of Ahmadinedjad and he is only to be made fun of. I hope there will be a free Iran soon and Iranians in Iran will be able to watch or listen to this and be merry that those times are over. And we Iranians and Americans can be officially friends and we can all laugh together...
i am an Iranian and I am sorry that the people of the world have come to know Iran only through the words of an insane person like ahmadinejad. I am so sorry. we deserve better.
it's a painful one!!what do u know about Iran?nothing just Mahmoud?As a persian residance of Iran,I hate him too,but this song is disrespecting all the Irainian!!read Iran's history before saying:awesome!
Nobody is disrespecting Iran. Iran is a great country, with great people. Sure, some people might be frightened of the leadership, but Iran has a great history and great people.
Hilarious, wish the video was on youtube too.
