  • Oh God, they're playin' the C part WAY too fluffily. The tune's full of MANIA! Why can't people ever play it with mania? They're always makin' it too soft. Bloody Hell, it's the dance of DEATH, not just a pretty piece of music to listen to while wanking your brains out. It oughta have a hint of apocalypse to it, goddamn! But this is one of the most soulful versions on Youtube, anyway. Just pianos. No symphony orchestras. They keep cuttin' the balls out of just anything.

  • This person who posted this needs to learn to count!!! There are two pageturners and 4 pianists!!!

  • I think this was excellent and amazing on the piano.

  • Guys who think this song is all about death and apocalypse and murder and hell on earth, should take a look at the poem behind it... piano roll here with poem youtube com/watch?v=pRvVlMAjzEI

  • @Bulinski102 you can't really tell their dynamic from youtube. You can tell their color and try to judge by that. Maybe there they we're going at it. Broken string in 4:01 ?

  • they fucked this up. t is piano in the beginning, then pianissimo. They played Forte in the beginning, then skipped a whole section.

  • @CallumJStewart - yes, but controlled. it's a bunch of dead guys having a party. they're not attacking anything, they're getting drunk and stuff! it should have a 'comical' feel to it, because even though it's about death, it's still a dance.

  • a broken string....
