  • @90tomyboy the other one is a keyboard glockenspiel.

  • @simonwest1977 And you are not a fan of it so much that you looked it up and took the time to comment on it?

  • What an erotic, yet chilling, piece of music!

  • Fry, play the rest of it. I want to hear how it ends.

  • sooo not a fan of this piece..

  • There are 2 keyboardinstruments at 3:25, what are they, a celesta, and...?

  • Brayvo! Brayvo! Enncore

  • @Goose4Lu71. Yes indeed. And George's influence didn't stop there. Scholars now believe Messiaen's 1963 work Couleurs de la Cité Céleste was inspired by Formby's catchphrase "It's turned out nice again, hasn't it?"

  • @fremsley001 That's correct. In fact, "Turangalila" can be roughly translated from Sanskrit to mean 'the post I lean from (until a lady walks by). It all makes sense now.

  • @fremsley001 Hahaha! That's very funny- thankyou!
