      Most piano progress videos are legit even crazy ones.
      1) some people are smart
      2) people who record themselves from day ones are by default ultra organised
      3) most of the time they record partial pieces, just 20-30s of hard pieces not 3min
      4) a lot of them actually post weekly or monthly videos and are fully legit

Laziness and meanness have reached an unacceptable level and, worst of all, disguised as “easy” tools. NEVER USE THIS RIDICULOUS AND WRONG METHOD OF NUMBERS.

    Playing playback has long been common. I remember the hard rock group Europe (80s; known for e.g. "The final countdown"). One of their former guitarists, John Norum, quit the group when he got tired of always just playing playback at the live performance - he wanted to play real live but wasn't allowed. And who has forgotten the 80s group Milli Vanilli...

    I will just say, I played the piano for my 83 year old mum and she cried. I was totally crap playing something that wouldn't even pass a grade 1 piano exam. Then I spent 4 months practising Happy Birthday every single day on 2 hands and she cried again. Then she started hitting me and I finally got the message.
    But the crying part was true. She said she never thought of me as musical. It was the hardest I ever worked to give her a birthday gift.

      Probably because there's not much we can do about it.
      Singers that sing and do hip hop on stage are most likely lip syncing to their own songs in order to insure the jumping does not come across in the performance as a result of a hard landing rather than a soft one.

    And they all have like 3.5 million views.

The joy of being able to correctly play a piece of music, the creativity that flows in a jam session, the feelings and meaning that music can convey, that cannot be faked. These fake videos cater to a certain audience. But real ability beats BS every day.
