  • @5158307 Excuse me but actual rap (not the commercial crap you hear on the radio) is music. I love this song but at least have the decency to respect other forms of music unless all of it is completely trash. Anyway, let's enjoy this lovely timeless art form. =]

  • @babyzaper i mean they used this is in some of the charlie chaplin movies :)

  • The people that disliked this ran into this by accident and don't like ragtime. This song is awesome.

  • Is this song copyrighted? I have read it is a public domain song.

  • @cacafito This song is a public domain song.

  • @RagtimeDorianHenry Who is playing this version? I like it a lot. It's a really nice slow version. Thanks very much for uploading it. An excellent and very clear recording of this piece!

  • @cacafito It is yes, because Joplin has died

  • I could play this ragtime!

  • gotta play this for my piano final on thursday lol

  • its sad that ppl heard this song from video games... its a classic

  • @thestumpyproductions I heard this from the muppet show and I heard my ma playin' it on the piano...

  • @yugoroth1 ok... thats not a video game... i didnt say all ppl heard it from a video game i just said its stupid that ppl have

  • @thestumpyproductions I didn't. I heard it when i was a very little girl,on an old stereo,and my mom got the albums,from,get this,an yard sale & Goodwill. I listened to them,because I was curious. This was from a kid who listened to the radio & wondered what an "album" was. I picked up a record called "the Sting," and thought, "Oh cool...bees." I listened,and I was hooked from them on! Fell in love with the Andrews sisters,too, and this group called "The Beatles." maybe you heard of them? :)

  • Gran turismo 5!!

  • Reminds me of the Auto Shop in Gran Turismo 5 ^^

  • I've got to practice this tune.

  • Maybe I should mater this tune, and go to pubs to play this to the people for money.

  • ICE CREAM!!!!!!

  • There is a film about Scott Joplin, is there not? I never knew these songs were composed by an African American. Are there and African European Composes? As in at the time of Beathoven or Bach?

  • Cool, thats a nice tune.

  • Who came here after seeing the episode of Growing Pains where Mike shares his paper route with Ben?

  • is this played by comupter? no mood and feeling in the playing.....

  • @PeterKneter1 You come off like someone who listens to that auto-tune crap...

  • @PeterKneter1 I second that, this sounds stiff!! LOL!!

  • I played this song on my trombone for solo-ensemble, took it to state, and got a gold. Great song, Harder than a 4 hr boner to play on trombone... im pretty sure i played it a bit faster 2

  • This was HUGE in 1974. It was all over the radio when the Sting came out.

  • @jrssjdca What was interesting is that many people thought the music had been written for the movie.

  • 17 people are not entertained

  • now I just have to find a real saloon bar in retro style that plays Scott Joplin and my dreams would be fulfilled

  • I CAN PLAY THIS 8D~

  • Incredible.

  • check out are cover of this thx =]

  • slow version FTW

  • nice and perfect....

  • I want some ice cream now. 

  • Billiards on PS1.

  • @snoopdogg111000

    ha yeah god id forgotten abt dat oh the memories

  • If thousands of people like pop, then millions of people are married to this kind of awesome music.

  • With this song i always remember the simpson's scene when Homer goes to New York. Hilarus!!

  • Gran Turismo 5!:-)

    heard it before though!

  • 16 people have no ears. LOL

  • @emilouchan 17 xdd

  • @emilouchan 17.. ;)

  • @emilouchan now it's 17

  • ....I was playing this too fast the whole time.

    DAMMIT.

  • I kid you not, this song was playing in the mall today. 108 years old and it's still being played.

  • Hey, I'm using this song/ video for a project I'm doing... can anyone could tell me who is playing this particular version of the song and also when it was recorded? I'd really appreciate it. Thank you.

    Amazing song by the way!

  • One of THE VERY BEST pieces of music composed in modern times!!!

  • @TheRobinable your being a bit liberal with "modern" aren't you haha?

  • @mukeshcuster

    Thanks for your comment. I appreciate it so please don't get me wrong - but NOPE I'm not liberal with the term "modern times". Historically 1902 IS in "modern times". 2011 is ALSO modern times, but strictly it is rather "late-modern" times :) Kind regards Jon.

  • My grandpa bought a REALLY old fashion piano a few weeks ago and it works just fine. But he bought a scroll that said enterianer and the tempo is mixed up on that song so it's goes super fast or slow. And this is what i use it for. "umm, PLAY ME OUT!!" *starts dancing with cane and hat out of the room* LOLZ! =)

  • Such a great song!

  • omg i love this ice cream song!

  • Great music!!!

  • Ohh yeah! Played nice and slow like it should be!

  • muy buena , divertida , y bonita cancion

  • This song is so hard to play. Well, when you start... because I'm trying... I don't think Chuck Norris can even play this...

  • @n3rdycow I know what you are saying. I am doing this song right now at my piano lessons and its really hard. My teacher gave me this song but I am just starting my second year of piano and its hard. And I dont think Chuck Norris can play it either :))

  • @MalinutzaDark I can play the first page now lol.

  • This piece was the very first composition of American classical music. What Bach did for Europe, Joplin did for the U.S.

    It is no exaggeration to compare the two men as they both laid the groundwork for what every generation would do after their pioneering and genius.

    This number is pure joy.

  • black chopin

  • Scott Joplin is the most underrated componist since... ever?

  • A composition of pure genius, thanks Mr. Joplin.

  • Im now 21 but In 5th grade I did a report on Scott Joplin & have been in love with his music sense ♥

  • 2:36 the part when i start to wonder how wonderful music can be .

  • It gives me the feel of "sadness" trying to be covered up through a "happy" song.

  • here, i love this song, and, i LOVE Thrash Metal, thats how good this song is, Rag time rocks, but, im still the Metal lover, ROCK ON, and dnt disrespct this song, its ledgendery

  • @09ChickenLittle Hell Yeah, same here!! This would be an awesome opening for Motorhead

  • This song is full of happy and win.

  • what a classic, simply divine.....

  • einfach genial !! Bin grad dabei es zu lernen, gar ned so einfach ;)

  • Let's hear it for a 108 year old MIDI file :3

  • @rushnerd lol'd

  • It's fantastic!!

  • you are a real insperation to me

  • Scott would probably ask, "What's a YouTube". This song is about 108 years old and it's on YouTube. Amazing thought.

  • @Bus7777 truly an amazing thought nobody in my age group appreciates this music (im 12)

  • @SuperPawsome

    I loved this song since I was eight, man. Saw The Sting at the drive in with my parents. :)
