  • @mongedoutmofo Your right. Beethoven's Piano Concerto No.5 - Second Movement would have been better :)

  • @taleton man I can't believe I even left a comment like that. All I know about Commodus comes from the movie Gladiator, where he was kind of a "punk bitch."  But I may have been a few beers down when I made that crass statement. My Youtube comments are usually well informed: I graduated summa cum laude in philosophy at university, after all. Can you shed any light on Commodus?

  • @LittleMegha

    why? do you know something about him? or have you seen the Gladiator movie?

  • terrible music though, very un-fitting

  • @xVin89x Why? Nature deemed it so...

  • i love these qoutes.. :-)

  • @smokabel

    The music is Boccherini - String Quintet in E Major. Opus 11, No. 5 Minuet

  • commodus was a punk bitch

  • no he did not have a buddhist guru as teacher but he was a student of stoicism whom the creator was zenon

  • i know it sounds cheesy but this man is the man i want to become
