  • 8:15 ..... love it

  • English classical pianists usually play this with the most intelligence and wit.

  • @lazyboi38 There's a difference between enjoying something and feeling the need to say that it is "the most talented form of music". PEOPLE are talented, not styles of music -- or you would say some random loser metal head is necessarily more talented than Bob Marley? Also, I am aware of what society considers about metal, but society "considers" a lot of crap. Being snobbish won't change society, at least not in a positive way.

  • @MDY4utube Yeah, let's agree to disagree :)

  • @shenkeey I'll just pretend you might be right... Lots Of Love...

  • @MDY4utube Fucking ridiculous, I listen to deathmetal etc too; but that is because I evolved from classical to metal in a lot of years, your ears need to comprehend every note before you can appreciate it: that's intellectual music for you.

  • Amazing.. This is what inspires young musicians such as myself. Made my day :)

  • @FernieCanto I think he's just trying to show that even though there is a contrast between the two, he likes them both. Since metal is considered by society rough, unrefined etc... and Classical mature, elegant, highest level of music etc... As for the authority to decide what is talented and what is not, he probably did not mean it that way. It's very likely that it was just an opinion of his. As for listening to metal I really don't see any harm in it besides the possibility of tinnitus.

  • I don't get it: apparently, labelling yourself as a "metal head" gives yourself authority to decide what is talent and what is not? I guess you should open your mind a little more to let all that metal spill out -- it's doing you harm.
