Why write at all if you're just going to say something mean? Do you not have any better things to do?

I havent even watched more of his videos than this, but its obviously about something very specific. A specific observation of the power of music, and I think its an interesting story, so I dont see the point in mocking him. I was only rude because you critisized him the way you did. "white boi haha" ... wtf??

This is a very good clip. My only criticism is its name: "Musicophilia." I don't think it has always been this way, but at least now any "philiacs" are deviants who are in need of counseling or even incarceration to avoid them doing harm to themselves or others. Seeing this name causes me to wonder if some day a true love of music might be considered in bad taste....

"See that guy bobbing his head? What a Muso!"

I kind of brought down hip hop there since it's seen as "money, bitches and guns".

That's the stereotype of it, and I fell for it too, but that's commercial hip hop, and it's bad, but if you really get into it and find the real ones that are in it for the music and not the money, trust me, it's really nice.

I dont know what is this,but I think name of this video Oliver Sykes

[Max Email]

I have one. It works really well. Thus, this man's diatribe comes off as irrelevant. Music is powerful - yeah we knew that since caveman days, big deal.
