Robin Williams on violin at :25

I'm only a four month old fetus and I love this! Thumbs if you like stuff!

@AngelodegliDeiME Fair enough. Surely you must know that people have knee jerk reactions when they see a top comment though right? Can't say I'm proud to fall victim to it, but in this case I went the commoner's route. But yeah--Horowitz was a beast, no argument there.

Look--Beethoven's 7th, especially the 2nd movement, shouldn't be dropped as background music to anything. Unless you sit down at the piano or stereo with the sole purpose of playing or listening to Beethoven, don't fuck with it. It's a cheap trick to use something that good merely to enhance an...
