Ever since I discovered TwoSet, the violin scenes from dramas that I thought were beautiful just turned out to actually be cringe for me now
legit and i feel like i know a lot when i don't lol
Ah yes, yes indeed.
I agree and it applies to every instrument in any drama.. just me cringing whenever any type of instruments played just looks wrong🤣😅
Omg SO RELATABLE! like i can't sit tight for 2 seconds during a bad scene featuring instruments! Aish the PAIN and HORROR.
fun fact: ur comments gets 27 likes in 4 minutes :'>
“Pop Music: the Epitome of Art and Culture.”
WE NEED THIS AS MERCH.
PLEASE!!
If this was merch, i would wear it and show it to the ppl who love pop :))
With a picture of some one "perfectly" playing the violin
Oh, no. Do not use period. Use exclamation or question mark.
@@bleach6746 Yo I don't love pop but I don't hate it either 😭 It's not my favorite genre but I have some artists whose music I seriously love.
Fun Fact: Chris Harms, who directed the Lord of the Lost video, is not only the band's singer but also plays cello. Also, they asked for people to donate their cheap/broken instruments to them for the video. And no living instrument was harmed in the making of the video.
Good to know thanks ❤
but it hurts to see anyways 😅 as a cellist… i’m still scared from that
Wasn’t expecting to see Lord of the lost after Eurovision 2023
Lord of the Lost gang
That still doesn't justify them using carpentry tools on instruments, that's just messed up idea.

13:30 "Hey, *S Y M M E T R Y* "
Wait at 10:14 is the violin in her RIGHT hand or am I tripping?!
As a South Indian, I'd like to apologise for the trauma and anxiety caused by our music video. I cant believe I used to think that video was so cool before becoming a Twosetter.
Same girl
I used to love it tooo😶🥲
And when I noticed last video was from t-series, I was like wah! Why did not you guys find some beginner cheap musicians to hold cellos and violins!!! :'-(
It's alright..it happened to me too lol
Me too mate , i used also watch many dramas with sacreligious playing and think it was soo cool and also thank you for apologized on behalf of all us south Indians :D
String players: well at least pianists don't have to bring their instrument to the rehearsal
Pianists: 3:50
😭😭😭
Bruno out here doing it differently.
Yeah but if gig you have to bring and set up a lot of big stuff. It's almost worst than the drummer. Lol
You got me, I laugh.
Lol 😭😭😭😭
😭🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I used to be a piano mover and I guarantee 100% that Bruno Mars piano has been emptied of all its interior mechanisms. There is no way to pull even the lightest upright piano by oneself. It might be obvious, but jsyk upright pianos are the hardest to move because they are the heaviest with so much crammed inside them (as opposed to a grand piano which has it's mechanisms much more spread out). They are deceptively heavy. I once moved an antique upright grand that weighed 1,500 lbs (or about 700 kilograms). Most pianos have tiny wheels called casters that are meant for moving from interior room to room, but definitely not the street or sidewalk. That is 100% unrealistic to have him pulling it no matter how it's balanced, even with a piano dolly. He'd have thrown out his back in 5 minutes.
Edit: corrected my weight conversion (thank you for the person in the replies who pointed it out).
This doesn't really matter but a ton is actually 2000 lbs (U.S.--UK ton is a bit more iirc), so 1500 lbs would be .75 tons.
Imperial measurements; gotta love 'em.
@@vladimirzhivanevskaya5474 I feel you, man. And 1 ton is 1000 kilograms.
thank you

My friend how long did it take to write this
As a trumpet player, I felt violated from the way those girls were violating those poor trumpets 😔
The same way for me and the saxophone.
Isn’t the girl also severely violated by hierarchy rules to film like this 😂
Same I was in PAINNN
the video has 222m views now 💀💀💀
I could say the same. I was repulsed when she just licked the trumpet but then...it didn't stop...
Prof Yang and Prof Chen, lots of twosetters are now matured internet violin detectives after getting lots of training from you guys. Please give us a quiz next time to let us show you how well we've learned so far lol (I personally have been watching out for violin playing scenes in dramas and TV shows and judging the "violinists" playing while watching lol That just add another layer of fun)
A sacrilegious quiz would be great.
I was watching Adult Trainee (not really good to be honest, although the first story is funny) and a girl has a bass presentation, and it was crazy how I suddenly turn half TwoSet half Davie 504 in just a flip of second. For real, I was like SACRILEGIOUS and CHECK MATE all the time 😂
Yes! Great idea!
I’m glad I’m not the only one who looks for things like this now, I tend to point it out to my folks and they just get so annoyed
Same overtime there's an instrument in a movie or show i pause and inspect
I constantly have to remind myself to watch Twoset videos with headphones on because brett and eddie always *moan* hella loud in frustration lol
Fr I had to watch them in my room for this reason
RIGHT lmaooo
AHAHAHAH oh god
My landlord just walked past, very awkward
Especially Eddy
About the Lady Gaga MV (the first one): the band "playing" music instruments is a satire and it looks so wrong on purpose x) In that MV (and that era of Lady Gaga's music) they actually tried to show the fakeness and performative perfection of pop music and pop culture in general. The Artpop album was all about "bringing art back to the pop music"
Yeah, and Tommy Wisseau claimed that "The Room" was meant to be a comedy.
@dimasgirl2749 I mean, good point, but Gaga is a really smart performer with a good eye for symbolism, so that's something i'd expect from her, and Tommy Wiseau is... there
"Why do so many hip hop artists use flutes?"
It's because it is really easy to sample. It gives a clear sound and changing between high notes to low doesn't change the "feel" of the note much, so all you need is for someone to blow a C4 into a mic and you can just pitch that up and down for all the other notes.
Few other instruments have such consistent sound between notes, so it is really cheap, quick and easy to sample it.
As a flautist, I have a few comments about the flute song video:
In the crowd, there's piccolos along with flutes, as well as a mixing of head/body/foot joint combinations to make a flute-like thing. There's also come other metal flutes which look non-classical, but it's hard to tell from the video.
The biggest reason why at 11:48 the flautist looks so wrong is that you are supposed to hold a flute with your left hand on top, holding out on your right side. Otherwise you can't physically reach all the keys. The things that throws me off is that the keys seem to be in the right places (pointing outward in front instead of behind) relative to her hands, which makes me think they mirrored the footage in editing.
Also, just all around bad embrasures, hand placement, posture.
I hope some other TwoSetters find this helpful.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but the timbre also does not sound like a flute - more like a recorder
Also, never mind the spit flying around, I was so anxious for the ‘flutes’ banging into eachother. I mean, a flute isn’t THAT sturdy and the tiniest dent can alter the sound and feel of the flute. Pls never show me that clip again.
@@Frieden17 it sounded .midi to me
Not to mention you could clearly see some of them helt their flutes too far from their faces to be able to play them. Like, 2in/5cm away.
Thank you, I am crying. My flutist heart is broken. The mirrored flute threw me off as well, but it is on the wrong side. The sound is too tiny for thus many flutes. We have an ensemble of six and have more volume/variety etc.
The synchronised "OHHHHH" when the instruments were about to get sawed got me😂😂
I felt their pain
@@lowheadvarney158 *we
I physically recoiled and cringed. Been a while since I’ve done that 😅🤦♀️🤦♀️
I harmonized with them T-T it hurt
With their being played, I believe the instruments being sawn into is their attempt at commiting assisted suicide in an attempt to get away.
Hi Eddie and Brett the last song is a South Indian one and the middle guy called MM Kreem can definitely play. Its the South Indian style of playing the violin. The even tune the Violin completely different to the western one. would love a review of u two reviewing South Indian/Carnatic violin playing. Loved the Episode as always and ya just wanted u guys to let u know that the middle guy definitely can play. :D
ohhh thats a good info!! its been a year but i hope they read this lol
It's Keeravani actually. Amit Trivedi is another music composer in the video, so I'm guessing they're all music composers.
Video Director apparently didn't know s**t though.
pop music. the epitome of art and culture.
No wonder Lindsey Stirling from the very beginning determined to edit her own videos because she found editors wouldn't sync her playing and the music properly, and sometimes they would use takes that she knew she messed up on, but they missed it.
These are... Baaaaahhhhd. 😄
Lindsey Stirling is a Queen and we Stan ❤️
YASS
For the Lord of the Lost video, they specifically took defective/broken instruments to film with so that they wouldn't break good instruments. Still sacrilegious, but they knew not to "harm" good instruments.
Oh my god, thank you.
6:06 Indian violin posture is actually different that western posture; they play sitting on the floor with the scroll of the violin tilted down to rest on the leg, and obviously there's no shoulder rest or chin rest. This music video appears to be going for western technique, but it might be good for you guys to know! The first time I saw a violin played that way I was pretty shocked.
A violin playing without a bridge or strings is like playing a brass instrument without a mouthpiece or valves
Or a tennis racket with no strings on it.
As a timpani player, I must say that the hit on the rim is the most sacrilegious thing in this video. Not only you're going to break your sticks or cause splinters that are going to damage the timpani head (200$ damage), but you're going to basically fuck up the timpani intonation big time and, worst of all, risking to break the nearly impossible to fix mechanism that ties the rim to a foot pedal, used to adjust the head tension (aka making the timpani just a big drum with an indistinct note, aka useless). A stick hit on the rim is basically the perfect recipee recipee for a 10000$ disaster. Also, the timbre is clearly not from a timpani and, even if it was, you'll need another timpani to make another note like 0.1 seconds later. Violin playing isn't the most sacrilegious thing in this whole compilation guys
I missed the timpani sacrilege. Which video had it?
@@oxoelfoxo ooops, I forgot to reference it in my comment. At 13:57
Thanks for the explanation! I'm not a classically trained musician, but the moment I saw that I was wondering.
I'm but only a strings player but something seemed terrible about them doing that to the timpani. Thanks for the explanation. Some percussion are built to be hit on the rim. Timpani isn't one of them.
I didn't notice this either. Seems like any instrument in these videos is massacred one way or another. Sacrilegious...
actually in gaga's mv the musicians playing the instruments in a wrong way was displaying the meaning of the song! it meant to show just how futile and fake today's music industry is.
I can't tell whether or not you're joking, but I genuinely got curious whether or not that's true.
As far as I am aware, there seems to be no confirmation from Lady Gaga as to whether or not calling out the industry was intentional. All I've seen so far was either theories claiming that's the case by fans or the fact that G. U. Y. is an acronym for Girl Under You.
Though, I could very well be wrong here. So, if anyone has some interviews suggesting she often puts similar messages intentionally or any direct confirmation that those fan theories were correct, then feel free to let me know! :)
@@MathNerd1729 I think it's a plausible theory -- It was either a conscious decision, or it's just trolling.
Whatever you think of her music or style, she is a conservatory-educated and skilled pianist, and a perfectionist when it comes to details in videos and performances. So I do not think it's laziness, or ignorance about instruments.
@@odw32 Thanks for letting me know your thoughts! I genuinely didn't really pay any attention to pop music until rather recently since I was too busy focusing on my own interests like math. So, it's nice hearing the thoughts of someone more knowledgeable on the subject! :)
@@odw32 this may be true, but how her music video is directed and edited is done by a third party. There’s only so much she can do when she’s focused on her choreography and lyrics and all of that.
@@MathNerd1729 I think it’s true b/c those women are reality tv stars and it’s part of a larger short film that shows how money hungry music executives are. So money hungry that they would resurrect ppl like Michael Jackson to keep making money.
She also did a lot of interviews during the art pop era about how shitty and superficial the music industry is
As a South Indian i am ashamed to say that I once enjoyed that allu arjun song so much. It was like a trend in my childhood days
Gurl i know!! I loved that song 😭😭 never gonna look at it the same way ever again
you can still enjoy the song. that has nothing to do with the music video bruh
My parents used to play that song to try to inspire me to play violin 😭😭😭
Let us all take a moment of silence for Editor-san to recognize their sacrifice in watching that one video in order to censor it and spare us from being scarred for life. They deserve some sort of award or something for that.
Pop music. The epitome of art and culture.
Brett Yang 2022
I mean, it's the most popular music at the time in the respective cultures it comes from, so it is in a sense the epitome of culture, musically anyway. It demonstrates trends the general public has in not only music but in society too
@@j-don5228 that is facts right there. They were saying it for a joke tho
@@j-don5228 it's often not the most liked music, but easy to listen to and inoffensive to most people
“The force is not evenly distributed”
“Without tension, there’s no sound”
“Weight support”
I just like how Eddy would usually describe things in physics term 🤓
TwoSetPhysics
This just sound almost philosophical mindful.
His default
TBH music is physic to some capacity
It's because understanding music requires understanding sound which is based around the principles of physics. For violinists, it's pretty common to use physics terms due to how you should understand the mechanical movements required to produce the desired sound for the piece you're playing.
As an Indian I freaked out when I saw that clip because I always kept telling everyone that it wasn’t right but no one listened … but TwoSet did !!!!
I play the clarinet in band, and I sit next to the saxophones... I asked them if it was okay to lick their sax. they didn't talk to me again.
Their reaction plus editor san's editing are the perfect combination 😂😂😂
The roasting videos are back! I have missed them :)
Editor san putting Magic Flute overture during the Flute Song was perfect
As an Indian, I apologize for the sacrilgeousness. I remember watching that music video two years back and cringing to death!
I remember how I felt watching that Allu Arjun's song before knowing Twoset and after knowing them.
@@whatchyagonnado Violin Song, I guess.
It's not your fault bro. But at the same time pls stop.
@@bachstraightboy1293 thanks :)
Well I don’t know how the Germans feel after they tried to saw an instrument…
'The Big boss' 14:14 is actually a golden globe winner and has been nominated for Oscars
As a flautist of 8 years I have a few things to say about the flute piece.
That one woman had her lips way too far above the hole (the embouchure) when she was pretending to play. Blowing into a flute is like blowing air over the mouth of a glass bottle if your lips are in the wrong spot (either too low or too high) no sound will come out. Plus the hand she had lower on the flute was way too low. The last few keys on a flute aren't keys that you can press down, they actually lift up when you press keys that are higher up on the flute. Also those small flutes could be piccolos by their length, but if you look closely at them they appear to have what looks like mouth holes at both ends with no keys in the middle, it sort of looks like they just had two head pieces and held them together in the middle, but because the shots move so fast I can't be 100% sure. Throughout the various shots you can see multiple people holding the flutes with both hands facing the same way (in reality your top hand should have you fingers facing you and with your lower hand your fingers should be facing away from you) And at 10:45 one of the women on the far right looks like her second hand is holding up the flute by the very end of the instrument! And flutes don't have spit valves like brass instruments so after playing for a while spit just drips out of the end of the flute, which is why you clean the inside of a flute with a spit rag after playing. So yes, if they were actually playing for any amount of time then there would be a lot of spit flying around. Just thought I'd share this and I hope someone finds it informative.
That’s a lot of info
A few things ay?
FEW?
Brett's HeLIcopTEr heLiCoptER at 13:09 🤣👌
I definitely feel like "The epitome of art and culture..." is going to be the next catchphrase for the merch. If you're not already planning that, I humbly ask that you consider using it; I would buy that in a heartbeat.
I love all the creative editing around the nudity in that next to last video. I don't get why showing that kind of stuff is supposed to be cool, but I did love Brett's reaction to Eddy's question! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I'll be waiting for Twoset's big MV drop! Maybe at 10 mil subs? 🤩
As much as I love many types of music, pop music as well, that is a funny quote that NEEDS to be in a TwoSet Apparel product. 😂
@@arturoromero951 And it needs a logo! Like, you have the Sacreligous Bee, this one needs something. Maybe a violin with the bow positioned over the fingerboard, like that poor cello in the first video. (I would suggest a female figure with a giant 'Censored' tag, but that might be a bit too much for Twoset merch.)
I'd buy merch with the "Pop music: the epitome of art and culture" tagline on it.
Destination Calabria... That's a REALLY old one. That went on MTV, when MTV still did music.
Back when people still knew what MTV was...
15:03 shocked me so much, because the violin actually has eight fine tuners instead of four. On the other hand, there are violins in other cultures that have doubled strings (always two on top oth eath other), one is to be played on with the bow, the lower ones goes through the middle of the brigde. Could this be such an instrument? That would explain why the bridge looks so strange.
I was waiting for them to notice the banks of fine tuners.
I noticed that too!!! Weird.
Nope, this is def faked
As a TwoSetter who is Indian and have actually learnt a lot from you guys, I cringed so badly at the lovey dovey messed up violin playing😭
Edit: the 'big stainless steel bubble tea straw' had me in stitches💀
Happy to see so many Indians on this channel 😄😄
Ayy fellow Indian
Dude Same 😭
Ayy same name
Ahah samee was cringing more than them tho I'm a non musician
As a trumpeter, I never thought that a trumpet could get in this video, BUT 12:19 HERE WE FUCKING ARE
Why must the Trumpet suffer from this bullshit
MY EYES
does the music even have trumpets in it lmao
@@joem9123 I only hear the alto sax/tenor sax from the excerpt
@@joem9123 it did,
Poor trumpet, getting licked sax-ually
14:53
TwoSet was busy talking about the bridge, meanwhile the 4 fine tuners:
What's wrong with the fine tuners again?
Oh wait...nvm, I think I see it now hahaha
As an Indian, that speaks Telugu (the language of the "violin song"), I know the video has 47 million views but that song was like, a cultural phenomenon. I swear to god, people were obsessed with it. 47 million is a serious underestimation. Even now, the whole "I'll teach you how to play the violin- but romantically" is easily one the top 5 common tropes in Tollywood/Bollywood. Brett and Eddy are my favorite UA-camrs and it was an absolute joy to watch these two worlds collide. Will have so much fun sending this to my friends who are huge fans of this song.
Also (Extensive plot ahead)
The whole movie is centered around the two protagonists love for music. The male lead is your "Into punk" kinda guy who falls for the "Innocent girl who plays a classical instrument" and it's like a mystery movie. People die, people are killed, there's a love triangle, the mafia is involved, corruption, wayyy too many flashbacks, plot twists and SO. MANY. SONGS. All in all, cringe af, but it literally shook the state of not most of the country to the core.
If you can screw up slowly you can screw up qUiCkLy
THE MEME SHALL NEVER DIE
11:49 As a flautist, the finger MOVEMENTS are actually seemingly ok (they don't necessarily match the track though). The embouchure is also not terrible, but not good either. It's good enough to fool most non-musicians which is more effort than usual.
HOWEVER, there are two huge problems:
1) The image is flipped, which tripped me the fuck out (but I understand if it's a copyright thing)
2) Her left (?) hand - the one closest to her face - is positioned about 2 keys further up the body than it should be. Ignoring the thumb, your left hand fingers should be as follows:
(gap) - (C vent)
Index - C (lever)
(gap) - (Bb vent)
Middle - A
Ring - G
Pinky - G#
She's on:
Index - (C vent)
Middle - C (lever)
Ring - (Bb vent)
Pinky - A
Basically, she's pressing 2 keys that should never be pressed manually on the flute. The motions she is making are fine I guess, but they're on the wrong keys.
Also the mini flute things that the extras are waving around look like plastic/metal fifes.
If you’re interested, the footage they showed is exactly how the music video is. They didn’t flip it for copyright reasons. So, either, the editor flipped the footage for the music video as an artistic choice, or it was just wrong on set. Either way, it’s not good lol

Info for the Lord of the Lost Song:
In the Credits it says:
" † DECLARATION †
No living instruments were harmed during the filming of this music video clip.
All instruments have already been dead and unplayable before.
After the shoot their mortal remains have been cremated in an adequate satanic ritual.
(Special thanks to everyone who donated these dead instruments!)"
they even included some classical references :)

2nd violence † Wolfgang Harmsadeus Lordzart
Violata † Giuseppe Gerdi
Violencello † Igor Klaasinski
Bass violence † Ludwig van Nikhoven
And Chris Harms actually plays the Cello:)
The song is btw of one of their swan songs albums - they are actually a metal/dark/gothic rock band

@@simplytwosetter lmfaoo thanks! I'm a huuuge fan as well, read all the books 7 times each in middle school, its still my biggest flex to this day
You know its gonna be good when the video starts with the flames and Brett is pretending to roast his violin 😂
I really want to see them react to Carnatic/Hindustani Violin playing. As someone who's both indian classically trained and western classically trained, I realize there are a lot of things I think are normal but probably aren't. The south Indian songs are usually recorded by amazing artists and the actors always do a terrible job - the comments on the video were probably talking about the violin melody because it's super popular.
True
I think someone dude put their (carnatic) violin playing up on lingling40hours and twoset did react to it but I'm not sure.
Also, seeing as to how prevalent music is in Indian culture I don't understand how people can get away with blatantly faking playing an instrument. Literally half the people I know can play some instrument; even if it is an instrument that's very Indian like the Veena, they'd still be able to spot the fake playing in a heartbeat.
@@nteula Hmm true, but i think it's that they don't care about it, although they do notice.
Yeah, even tho I have no Indian classical training it looks to me like a couple of the things the actor is getting roasted for would be more ok in Indian technique?
7:37 the production team forgot to instruct the actress. The violin praises are for the composer only
"Pop music, the epitome of art and culture." -Twoset
I'd put that on my yearbook 😎
Chris Harms actually plays cello. Lord of the Lost is a metal band, not pop (one of my fav) and they confirmed, that they did not destroy functional musical instruments during the shooting of the clip 😀 I think their Swan Songs albums may appeal to classical music enthusiasts as well 🤘🏻
I was really impressed with that clip. Its clearly very artistic from the music to the video. Thanks for the info, I'll check them out! I was certain that wasn't a lame video like the others lol.
Maybe its the old metal head in me 🤷♂️
@@robhenry4197 no problem Rob, the band definitely deserves more attention. So let´s wake the metalhead in you 😀🤘🏻Enjoy!
My husband and some friends moving my piano (when we were in college and too poor to hire piano movers) was an extreme act of love.
Bruno Mars got it right.
I was equal parts worried about them and worried about my piano. Insanely stressful.

Thanks to their "1 hour learn" episodes, now they are experts for 90% instruments roaster, 🤭 i mean reviewer
Hello fellow roaster
Now I desperately hope they learn the flute lol (from flute gang) XD
No bridge, no strings, no music lessons... MV production too expensive for things like that. Gotta set priorities. 🤦🏻♀️
It’s one of those cases where the music is great but the video isn’t.
Expectations: I'm gonna mix playing the violin with dancing to make my performances more interesting! Yeah, I'm gonna be like Lindsey Stirling!
Reality: 10:14
13:18 .... how did you guys comment on the bow being underneath the bridge but *NOT* talk about how the bridge and tailpiece are glued on and the cellos no strings....??!
1:31 ”I am upset”
Well the channel’s name now is “two UPset violin” I guess
No one:
My door at 3AM: 9:48
i play violin, viola, cello, double bass, and more and this made my soul crumble a bit..
On behalf of the Indian community, pls accept my DEEPEST apologies for the guitar man and miss no-bridge girl. But you should review Carnatic music, which is like the Indian version of violin, it’s definitely NOT sacraligious and is a beautiful art form.
I meant India style of violin playing. Yeah, Carnatic music doesn’t get enough credit.
The ones that aren’t flutes in 11:34 look like fifes. When I used to play the flute, they started us off with the fife to learn the basic finger positions
Thanks for answering my question! Are they as loud as piccolos?
@@oxoelfoxo I’m not too sure. I’ve never played or heard the piccolo. They don’t sound that different from flutes, except you can’t play as many different notes.
The more you know 🌈
Flutes are Loud but not enough unless you have more than two to carry the sound better in a band other wise it drowns out the sound if the quieter instruments you can hear the piccolos because they are small and high pitched so they cut through the loud brass instruments easily for solos a normal flute can’t cut out loud instruments so we need more than two flute so people can here the melody easily same with violin and viola too they are too quiet on their own so they have more violinist than brass because they are loud I know this because I been in both type of band to understand this.
You guys NEED to make a "Violin Song" But With Realistic Sound, dubbing over the vid with what that playing would actually sound like. I'd cry it'd be so funny PLEASE
THIS!!!! hahahahahaha
The way Brett looks into the camera while saying: "Pop music" is killing me. It literally looks like his brain is melting.
“But hey, at least…” = the lowering of standards right there :)))))))))
Indian pianist here. Have been watching twoset for 2 yrs and I feel the need to apologise on behalf of the bluffing actors who fake the whole thing.
I love pop but sometimes the industry is seriously insulting to what music is as an art and rewards hype over talent.
Actually they use people off the casting couch
""""""""""""""""sometimes""""""""""""""""
Deep down I wish you would do a parody/trying the different violin poses in that violin song MV

As a guitarist, the man who make the guitar as weight support is a trigger to usss, like dudee, I won't even let my guitar have a single scratch, and you just, oh my horseeee
Thank you!
Also, question:
Was it just me or was he acting like he was playing normally when the sounds were muted? Just seemed a bit off to me.
Enter Fender and their relic range.

MOST PAINFUL THING TO SEE ON THE VIOLIN EVEN I DONT PLAY THE VIOLIN
A DAM SAW CAN MURDER LIVING THINGS AND INSTRUMENTS 😱
percussion player here.
literally screamed when i watched the dudes whack the rims of the timpani.
my brother came over and asked what horror movie i was watching, hearing me scream like that.
guess what.
he screamed too.
I am sorry for your suffering but your reactions to "Violin Song (Girl Just)" were hilarious! I laughed so hard. You guys made my day!
I was tempted to go check the video, but i deny to give them another view.
@@edusam666 then go check the audio version and give the actual credit to the actual musicians... simple....
14:12 is M. M. Keeravani, an Indian film composer

8:54 new ling ling challenge pose just dropped
As a flautist, I must admit that I've never seen so many sacreligious ways to hold a flute in such a short amount of time. I've seen beginners do better than this 😂The lady with the flute didn't look right because she was holding the flute the wrong way. It's meant to be held to your right although there are disgraceful inventions called "left handed flutes". Her embouchure was hilarious, gurl you ain't gonna get any sound with your mouth like that! 😂 Some of those "flutes" looked more like painted aluminium foil. Anyways, don't mind my little rant, have a good day 😄
Thanks to 2set, I can no longer watch any violin scenes in movies or TV without hysterically crying, sobbing, and screaming. I don't even play violin
As a South Indian..... I sincerely apologise from their side for the SacRAliGiOuS mistakes!! I hope the classical music community will forgive them.
Edit-its a joke people!!
Don't apologize!!!! It's not your fault
@@PeacherLiz yeah, I don’t know why people apologize for their country/culture doing something they had no control over. Their actions do not represent you as a person
I haven't even gotten past the pre-video ad yet and i already agree
As a student trumpet player in a marching band, that one mv made me EXTREMELY uncomfortable, like ????? Whyyyyy
12:03 as an Alto Saxophone player, this hurts to watch.
First of all, it’s already really hard to play while standing up because you need to balance the bottom of the saxophone so you’re not worried about it swaying. To help us with this, we use neck harnesses and attach it to the saxophone (which she does not have) to help us carry the saxophone, and also as a security blanket so we don’t drop it. And when you’re swinging around the heavy instrument without a neck harness, you have a good chance of dropping it because your hands are too busy fingering the notes to be able to hold it steadily.
Secondly, she’s literally swinging the saxophone around and acting as if it’s making any good sound. You have to worry about sound projection and sound quality and when you’re flinging it around while moving, you have no core, you have no sound, no breath to produce sound, no anything. All you’ll get is a really airy, nasally sound.
Kind of like how you can’t move when you play the Violin because the bow doesn’t make contact correctly or hard enough with the strings, but it’s sound projection through a mouthpiece.
The "final boss" in the last one is actually the music director of the movie. So i guess he knows something about the violin although he might not be a violinist.
Were there supposed to be 8 fine tuners on his violin? Did I see that?
When they were saying that his bridge was to high. You could literally see where the line was to cut and shape it down.
@@debbiegilbert5393 , yes, there were! I’m so confused. 😲
Thank you, I knew he must know something! I have been scrolling the comments to find this out!
*_"Pop music: The Epitome of Art and Culture"_*
Seems like a legit book title for me
As narrated by Brett Yang
I play flute and that 'flute song' physically hurt my soul.
I just tell myself that those instruments in the MV aren't real. And here 9:39 we have Brett and Eddy demonstrate using their own violin (ㄒoㄒ)(ㄒoㄒ)
As a cellist, them calling the end pin “the spike” is making me laugh so much omg
What is it??
Got me too, “the spike” should be the new terminology, sounds more imposing.
@@Brittanysplittany “the spike” is what’s known as the end pin if I’m not mistaken
Okay so basses and cellos have endpins. What they do is they come out as far as you’d like to adjust sizing of the instrument to fit your size so if you are a little too big for your cello or bass you would adjust the endpin to make it fit
Ex-cellist here. I second this.
