      This video randomly came to my mind. I remember watching it a milion times, being keen on beatbox in 2013 at the age of 10... I was beatboxing every day, practicing it all the time..I forgot about the concept, and reminded myself of the great moments through videos once again, 8 years after...I also listened to dubstep and skrillex.. It is great to remember the vibes and everything..

    • @cutie5028
      @cutie5028 5 років тому +88

      Or perhaps it’s because you can learn the content of an educational video and have no reason to return, whereas entertainment videos can be returned to on several occasions.
      Especially considering that music is much more complex in our minds than a well explained theory. The whole reason you get songs stuck in your head is because your brain views it as an unfinished task.
      For example, you would probably listen to a song you like many more times than you’ll come to reread that little fact I just said, because you’ve already read it and have no reason to return often. You’ve already taken in that information.

      +Erica Michael Jackson beatboxed too. That was how he composed his songs. He would beatbox the melody into a tape recorder and have the band come in to record the instruments based on his beatbox recording. There is a video on youtube of him beatboxing his song "who is it" during an oprah interview.
