ThePianoGuys!

Post by Joy »

Okay, so who's heard of them? They're amazing! Best instrumental music EVER! I just feel so peaceful when I listen to their music. If you haven't heard them, then you have to. I'd post the video, but I can't get the youtube tags to work.
Some of their music:

I know! Even if you've heard a song once, you just can't stop listening. Oh, and Cello Wars was amazing!

I don't get why they're called piano guys when only one of them plays the piano, and the music seems more cello oriented...

I wondered about that, but, name aside, they're amazing.
Do you know how to do youtube tags correctly? :anxious:

You have to make sure you only have the link of the video itself, and nothing else.
To link to this video:

You have to make sure you don’t have extra code that the tag won’t understand.
Depending on how you navigated to the video to get the link, it may look like this in your browser:

Code: Select all

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WROOqR-H_kw&list=UUnJpRcU2EbiLf2y85Aw6Sfw&index=3&feature=plcp
You need to take off everything after the video code. It should always be the first ampersand. So cut that, and anything after it.

Code: Select all

I love the Piano Guys \:D/ my roommate introduced me to their videos. Even though they're Mormon (I think), when I hear their music I often feel like it's worshipful anyway. Maybe I'm just weird that way :-

When you look at the videos, and you see them playing, you can see how much they love their music, and how much they love to play! And, I don't think that's weird, Shen. I feel that way too.

P.S. This is one of my absolute favorites. =D> =D> =D>

I think the best two videos are the Pirates of the Caribbean and Harry Potter theme songs played by the guy on the piano. :inlove: I wish I could play half as well as he can.

Of course you do, JP! They're amazing! And some of their videos are so...innovative. I took the time to go to about 17 of their videos and create the perfect playlist, all PianoGuys. Now when I'm working, I won't have to go back to the computer and go to the next video! And, JP, it's a must to listen to them. :yes:

Another awesome song by ThePianoGuys! I totally love how the whole thing was just a dream! And Jon Schmidt being the granny was really funny. I suspected that the old granny was not...in fact, a granny, but I didn't know it would be Jon Schmidt!

I rather doubt that, seeing as I am the "301"st viewer, while there are almost 5000 likes and 800+ comments.

Well, since I saw it 8 minutes after it was uploaded, and there were only 138 likes, no dislikes, and 58 comments (yes, I wrote it all down... I'm that much of a fan!), I'm fairly sure that I was close to (if not) the 300th view.

I will never get tired of watching that part (4:48)...

That was so good! \:D/ I love how it was all a dream.

I've started listening to them now :) Oh, and I really really like their Pachelbels Canon meets U2.
