  • I pressed play and after watching "the first ever sound recorded" I just cannot watch this clip until the morning. Why is it when you watch things at night, they are so frightening!

  • Wow, do any of you know how sound was recorded and palyed back and how films were made???

  • wow howd you get your hands on these clips?? theyre awesome!!

  • @GhostoftheGridiron no u know wat song would be scary like that "Hello Dolly-Louis Armstrong"

  • the sound is creepy as hell. imagine being in bed in complete darkness alone at home and hearing this music.

  • @dondoman hehehe!!!

  • @GriffinNary I dont get whats so scary about it? Is it because they're all dead?

  • 1 frame per second, wow i think that the 1878 film horse in motion was like, 30 frames per second.

  • Margotdarby is confusing The Lost Chord with another Sullivan song, The Absent-minded Beggar (one of his last compositions) which was, indeed, written in 1899 to support the Boer War effort.

  • @GriffinNary  How can you play it backwards. I would love to do that .
