Seabrain should be peabrain, of cause it's a fake! Where is your sense of humour, it is rumoured Americans have no sense of irony, I think you have proved that beyond a shadow of doubt. I guess seabrain your a Lawyer, guilty as charged your honour Americans have no sense of humour. You will be taken from this place and have to spend an evening, watching mcfender in concert until you laugh. Failure to find it funny you will be sent too the state pen, and executed by lethal injection.
To Sea Brain: You, my friend, are getting in way over your head. I would be careful with what you are trying to do. Do you really think you are the first to question this talented man? Hundreds,maybe even thousands of young men trying to make a name for themselves have attempted to disprove his tootsie skills,yet Mcfender is still selling out shows around the world. In fact in 2003,6 of the top video analysts in the world examined his videos and the consensus;he's "the real deal".
(continued) not to mention this man gets awfully defensive and rude when anyone tries to question the validity of this clip, and calls them a "gaywad" which suggests something about his maturity. I don't know why someone would claim to be able to play with his feet and fake it on a youtube clip. You oughta be ashamed of yourself mcfender.
Look, I like you Seabrain. You sound like you know your stuff. But, seriously: you don't know what you're getting involved in here. I would suggest in the nicest possible way that you talk to the foot 'cos the face aint listenin', honey! ;>)
I don't know what I'm getting involved in? Hmmm, well I know the notes of the piano and I can very easily see that your toes/feet are tapping the wrong keys at certain parts of the piece, i.e. your toes pressing together G flat, G and A when none of those notes are actually played on that part of the song lol. You are a big, fraudulent lying FAKE and you should go find something else to do with your time. Seriously.
Seabrain - why are you prolonging this? You are entitled to your opinion and I respect that. However, my public needs me. I am in the process of learning some really tough Rachmaninov with my feet right now, so I don't really have time for an argument. If you think I'm a fake, that's fine, but I'm not sure why you are trying to discredit me in the eyes of the public. Note how I'm not calling you a "gaywad" or getting defensive and rude! Seriously - let's agree to disagree.
It's not a matter of opinion, it's a fact... you are not playing the right notes. Pure and simple. I have the sheet music right in front of me and you simply are not hitting the right keys, unless you transposed your keyboard to a different key..and even then you wouldn't be playing the right notes either. And if you were to play Rachmaninov's music with your toes your pinkie toe and your other toes would have to be able to separate from each other more than an inch. And that's not possible lol
I understand you being envious of my talents, sir. Please don't be blinded by jealousy. Maybe we can form a transatlantic duo - you playing the high notes with your hands and me playing the low notes with my feet! What a spectacle THAT would be. I'm sure we'd sell out areanas across the US and the UK!!!
I'm not 'envious' of your talents, just disgusted that you would post a fake video like this and claim that it's real. Again, I know how to play this song so I know what the ACTUAL NOTES are in the song. Your feet and toes are NOT hitting those notes. Pure and simple.
Seabrain - I feel your pain, really I do. I was once like you: playing with my hands, doing "the right thing", not believing in miracles. Then one day, I saw the light. I kicked off my shoes, closed my eyes and let my feet do the talking. I bear you no malice, brother. I will play a special song with my toes tonight and pray for you. God bless you and your traditional ways.
Okay, you do that... in the mean time I'll be sure to tell as many people as possible that you're a dishonest fraud. The names of the notes don't change when you play them with your feet, and now that we've had this conversation people will see my posts and know that you're a fake. An F as a high-note towards the end of the song cannot be played by pressing E and E flat together, which is exactly what you did. It just doesn't work that way. You still haven't responded to that argument.
Seabrain - I think that most people reading these posts will probably think you're going on about it too much! I would add that you are maybe coming across as someone with not much of a sense of humour or irony. I personally find it amusing that you are still trying to to debunk my short film. Take a deep breath and enjoy life.
And I find it amusing that you're spending so much energy responding to me and trying to keep this fraud of yours covered up. And I also find it amusing that you still haven't answered my question: how is it possible that you're playing an E and an E flat when the note in that particular part of the piece is supposed to be an F? See - you keep dodging the question, and I'm still waiting for an answer...
Seabrain - I reckon you have studied my feet more than my wife and my chiropodist put together! I feel flattered at the attention you are giving me - thank you. I'm afraid I cannot answer your question: that is the allure of my act. You will never see beyond the mystery! I don't even know how I do it. It is truly a god-given gift!
(continued) At 0:42, for example, he hits an E and a D with his right foot, and a D with his left at the high note towards the end of the song, when it's supposed to be an F followed by an E flat / D sharp.
Alright guys, I've watched this video about 7 times, and I'm just going to clarify this for everyone. I'm a pianist, been playing since I was 8. I have played this piece as well as other pieces by Chopin, and I'm afraid this man is not the "real deal". I paused the clip repeatedly throughout the clip and studied the notes he was hitting with his feet - they're just not the right notes (see post above)...
Seabrain - you may well be a pianist, but you only play with your hands! I am the world's leading tootsie-player, so I think I know best. I would be willing to travel to wherever you like and play live - just give me a venue, date and time. Oh, and a cheque for £1,500 - that's what I charge for a half-hour performance. Plus travel expenses. I have played corporate events and have even played a short set at London's Barbican.
Really.. then why is it that at o:42 your foot plays a mangled E and D chord when it's supposed to be an F followed by an E flat? I know what the notes of the song are and you're not playing them lol
This guy is the real deal folks. He's been doing this for years. I think some people have a hard time accepting that others were blessed with a talent that they could only dream of. It's ok to be a little skeptical with some of the videos that are out there, but after watching, you have to give the guy credit.
its not me playing so shame your a fake trying to be cool if anyone should give up it should be you your completely crap theres no question about it learn to play proprly before you try to say other people are crap.
You can't even spell! You made ELEVEN spelling/grammar mistakes in your last post - AND IT WAS ONLY 43 words long! At least I'm being original - unlike you, who posts other people's stuff on your gay YouTube page. Have you got nothing to say for yourself? You're such a chickenshit mummy's boy that you blocked me from posting any comments on your site. Well NOW YOU'RE BLOCKED TOO, GAYWAD!!! Get an education...
Oh, I forgot to mention - this guy (the laughingly titled 'iam2musical') does this really gay tapping thing on his piano and has a very dodgy sense of timing, judging by the grainy footage on his YouTube page. If I were you, I would give it up, mate!
Dannepanne - I actually know this guy and I can tell you it's not fake! I was the same as you when I first saw it, but I went to see him live at the comedy tent in Glastonbury and it blew my socks off (pardon the pun!) I got to meet him after the show and he played some more classical pieces using his feet. He's a real oddball, that one!
come on, I´m sorry, but you can see that its fake when he hits the pianokeys with his left feet. He is touching the 1st 2nd & 3rd when he plays, and that is not how you play it. And he is, and everyone who tries to play with their feet, to clumsy!
Dannepanne87 - I accept your apology. I can't explain how it's done - how can one explain a true talent like that? I guess some of us can play with our feet and some of us can't! I guess we'll never know for sure...
oh man, seabrain needs to chill out like bad. I thought this video was funny, and what makes it more funny is the argument of you two.
