Serj Tankian - Charades [OFFICIAL VIDEO]

[baymandernamonia]

33 thousand hits...out of 6 billion people in the world, this song has 33 thousand hits...its sad, all these people being sucked into black hole that is mainstream, when will the underdogs be the mainstream, when will the mainstream bands like LMFAO and justin beiber and little wayne finally die off letting people like Serj (solo), Disturbed, System of a down,Slipknot become the official mainstream, when will people open their eyes to see truly

[423Misfit]

How can this song have so little hits? Oh that's right, because assholes of my generation are too busy sucking Lil' Wayne's and Drake's dick and listening to that fat guy, whats his name? Oh yeah Nicki Minaj to be listening to real music like this....Serj fucking rocks man.

[FuckTheSystem1995]

4 me is serj one of the most talented vocalist in the world . Such a great person

[superbeam12345]

@FuckTheSystem1995 es gibt keinen vergleichbaren!

[FuckTheSystem1995]

@superbeam12345 Hast recht

[SuperDollar89]

although am a thru and thru serj /SOAD fan, yet i think this is not serj's one of finest... :(

[AnnaMansonEliseeva]

5 leute, ohne geschmack ! :D

[asderrde]

can i get some more serj please?

[Palobekov]

For people, who knows Serj's songs:

Do you hear on 0:52-1:08 some of "Elect the dead" ?

[mayhem126]

Hypocrisy!!! Democracy!!! Genocide!!! ahhhhhhh!!!! * Slaps piano repeatedly!

bahahahaha

[mayhem126]

When you make music raping the same 3 words over and over it begins to become less meaningful. I can't stand this shit anymore!? How does the beginning piano sound amazing? It sounds like he's just making it up as he goes right then in there? Who the fuck would call this meaning full? Blind AND retarted?! I know its the same guy neg the post. Thats whats fuckin sad about it. He needs to get back with daron and stop this bullshit omg. Metallica Pawnz these motherfuckers and thats all that matters

[chaketron3000]

@mayhem126 its called "improvisation"

the word of the day "IMPROVISATION"

Thank you and learn to appreciate music.

[mayhem126]

@chaketron3000 that would explain his piano style but what about his lyrics? need I repeat his favorite 3 words ever?

[inMYtimeOFneed92]

@mayhem126 troll

[HHCLOL66]

his words are strong if only some of the DUMBELLS COULD GET THT HIS WORDS ACTCULLEY MEAN SOMTHING AND ARE NOT JUST WORDS PUT INTO A SONG TO SOUND PRETTY!!!

[mayhem126]

@HHCLOL66

Hypocrisy! democracy! genocide! ahhh!!! *slaps keyboard randomly. Now I'm serj. System of a Down is my favorite band. But Serj solo shit is repeated non sense. Its like how lady gaga randomly slaps clothes on and people call it fashion. He sings about the same shit over and over. SOAD is awesome. His solo shit = garbage. PERIOD.

[Kurtm16]

@mayhem126 fuck off you stupid 12 year old ungreatful fuck. his new stuff is as good as SoaDs stuff, if you only like him in soad then you are faggot.

[baymandernamonia]

@Kurtm16 actually, hes not a fag for liking serj in soad, hes a fag for asking for it again, soad is dead, but their memory lives on in their music, serj will never die because, gods dont die.

[MrOrsoSam]

Lol 18000 visit,and only 17000 were mine.

[grandsaga]

Best performance of the song IMO.

[TheCaptainCrack]

Great artists do things we normal ppl cant understand ;)

[mayhem126]

Some of this sounds really nice but alot of it is him just slapping the piano like he's retarted or having a stroke? Does anyone else feel like he is trieng WAY to hard on his music and trieng 2 become something he's not? So many people say "omfg!!1! he's brilliant!1!!" Bunch of piano slapping and sliding with a few good keys wdf? There are far greater piano players than this guy. how many more albums is he gnna bitch about the same thing? Use to like his music now just lame. SCars on broadway

[thebiznizboyz]

@mayhem126 Well...he is the smartest rock artist ( political wise) and he is good at piano. Plus scars sucks. Also look at serj's hair, that was when he sucked was when he had long hair :D. now hes beast and he has an orchestra...all daron has is a belly and and awesome adventure beard.

[HHCLOL66]

@mayhem126 how--how... HOW CAN U REALLY FREAKING SAYING THIS!!!!! U R EVIL!!!!! NO EFENSE BUT U DNT KNOW MUSIC HIS WORDS MEAN STUFF ONLY PPL LIKE US (AS IN PPL WHO LIKE HIS BEAUTIFUL WORK!) KNOW WHAT THEY MEAN!!!! i will now go in a hole and cry...

[mayhem126]

[2Winty22]

I can't believe this only has 10,000 hits...the world is missing out, or maybe the world is just that tasteless

[TheGuardianOfHalo]

[MichaeI52]

This is great - but he has certainly improved in the last 6 years.

[jahcalifornia]

[handmiadenofgod]

This is so cool :) He is such a unique artist!

[smithg0011]

does anyone know how to get the manuscript for the piano for this song coz that would be great

[psychofoorlife]

great great super great song

[Therverus]

I'd like to see Charades in studio. I've heard only the live versions. =/

[potcatworldsend]

it's out serch it up

[Jogus123]

beautifull song;)

[Skullstein]

fabulous fucking song, but doesnt seem fully put together, u know what i mean?

[biancadalpra]

Yes I know but to me that's what makes this song so different and unique.

Because the piano is so beautiful we can get distracted from the lyrics, maybe he didn't want that ... maybe he wants us to listen what he is saying. Also these words (You were strong in forming violence ) had to be said differently to the rest of the song, because it sounds nothing like 'We were strong performing silence'.That's my opnion anyways =]

[DrCarbomb]

@biancadalpra i agree, as in the difference to when he says joys and toys of our convenience...this song really is just amazing to me and hits me so hard every time i come back to it...im a huge metal fan and really love all talented music...a friend told me that is wasnt even real music because the piano sounds all "choppy" and the vocals are "all over the place"...but its ok, because small and close minded people always miss out on the best things in life....just wow, how talented...

[Invalidstyrkan]
