Baroness Therese von Drossdik, born as Therese Malfatti (1 January, 1792–27 April, 1851) was an Austrian musician and friend of Ludwig van Beethoven. She is best known as the supposed dedicatee of Beethoven's famous bagatelle, Für Elise... ;)
One day, a relative of Beethoven, Elise, walked in. She said "Beethoven, can you write me a song?" Beethoven replied "NO Elise! I don't have the time!!". Elise walked out, slamming the door.
A day later Beethoven finished a song he had been composing for quite a while, and named it "Fur Elise", marking his apologies to Elise.
@XathierCx Haha yeah a man who was deaf could hear his cousin make a request, lol he wouldn't even know she was slamming the door after she thinks he is just ignoring her though he never heard a thing haha
@XathierCx There was a story about Beethoven and Elise. He hated Elise but Elise wanted a song from him. The only gave her 2 notes and then he finished the song für Elise. And the title was: What if Beethoven hated Elise?
@XathierCx the actual story goes like this: Elise was a very beautiful and rich woman that wanted to learn how to play the piano, so she asked Beethoven to do so. In the end he said yes. So Elise ordered a piano full of gems and diamonds and asked to tell her if it was a good one. He said yes again but on one condition: nobody would listen to him play. The same night while Elise was hiding behind a curtain Beethoven started to improvise, so this song came out.One year later they were a couple...
@TITOR002 For people who can't play it to learn how. BTW, 100% is a bit down-sizing it, because this is really about 50% speed. This has more though for people who want to learn it because they are too slow to read to sheet music. :P
it really doesnt look that hard when you think about it. all the fast parts are either going up and down the keys or all near each other so you dont have to move your hands(:
I already know how to play each part of this piece but whenever I try to play it altogether, I always seem to play a wrong note. :( During my piano recital, I played this... good thing the audience didn't notice my mistakes.. or at least I hope they did not. :)
Nice job!!

To be honest I like it, but I don't like it.
Its a great piece I'll admit it but it gets played so many times it becomes boring.
I've also heard that everyone who plays the piano learns this melody early while they are studying piano. I know I play it my self.
So its a really simple melody that everyone has heard its everywhere. Its to overplayed.

Some people want young white females to mix with non-white males.
I made a one-minute video highlighting a very small sample of race-mixing advertisements.
