This is my favourite Chaser song. I don't know why; I just love this one more than the others they've written. All Chaser songs are fantastic however!
@TearyWrist I first saw this on BBC Four, so I don't know if Einstein Factor was a genuine programme. I know Kath & Kim was also an Australian ABC production and that was shown on BBC-2 in the UK.
Dominic Knight is the head writer, he is also in some sketches as an extra like the bassist in the lounge music cannibal corpse song, or as a ghostbuster in the john edward ghostbusters sketch
He's actually a really good singer, you wouldn't think so, but he is. But can't play piano that well, I mean he can play it okay, but all he's really doing is playing chords, which isn't very hard.
He's so sweet in this song cos he sounds so innocent and cute, whihc he isn't... but still! I love it when he starts yelling at the voice over...
yeah i guess, it makes the song seem more original and home made, plus makes the singing sound better, so simple piano playing is probably more suited for what he does...
Can you play piano? I'm not having a go at you, thats a genuine question. What's the difference between playing chords and playing the piano well?? I'm not musical so I wouldn't know, I just thought all piano playing sounds the same. I think he's really good either way.
Playing chords is just playing three or four notes at once, like in most popular music there will be a backup guitar just playing chords. A full piece of piano music will have a complicated chord pattern for one hand and then the melody for the other. This piece is just a series of relatively simple chord progressions (ie, playing a Cmajor-chord, E-major, G-major etc.)
i just started playing piano (im only 13 btw) and its really hard to get the chords right and stuff but my teacher(piano) says that im progressing very far considering i only started a few weeks ago your right it is hard in some popular songs
ive played guitar for about 4 years now and when i first started it was hard as **** to get the chords and notes right. but after getting them down everything else came alot easier and faster.
I've heard the other songs, it's just that this one seems really simple, and for a moment there I was wporried that my idol (andrew Hansen) wasn't nearly as idilic as I'd thought!
@jgrox716 dude has it occurred to you that as it is a comedy piece that he is playing, the focus is probably more on lyrics than piano skill???? and if you take a second to stop and think, it may be a bit rough to be basing your entire judgement of his piano skill solely on one song he plays??? just food for thought...
OMG I think your fabby doo. your really good but havent heard of you in scotland. wonder why as your great.

when he was put into the corner, was that part of the skit, or was that really a commercial during the song?

He actually is a very good piano player if you see "The Eulogy Song" or the Cannibal Corpse/Lounge Music mash up.

Sorry "mate", but he created the Chaser theme song. He's made 30+ theme songs for his jobs...
What do you want, a symphony? Now I know you're a maestro, so instead let's critique your channel.
Please just remember that sometimes, different styles need different levels of skill.
