    Corey Taylor's talk at England's prestigious Oxford University will be featured in it's entirety at Corey's website (www.thecoreytaylor.com) starting on Wednesday Nov 9 at 5pm Eastern.
    Earlier this year, the bestselling author and Slipknot/Stone Sour frontman joined the ranks of the Dalai Lama, Michael Jackson, Albert Einstein and Kermit The Frog when he spoke at Oxford. In this in-depth and wide-ranging talk, Corey discusses his music, his book, and his philosophical approach to art, success, and life in general.

      yeah its still sad that people believe your education has to define who you are going to be forever, ive had over 20 years of schooling, 2 different colleges and university. I think i do okay in life personally but i have known many many people who had no time or interest for education outside of what was manditory to them and alot of them are a hell of a lot more smarter then me with no degrees behind them. You make the person you become people.

    Corey, you inspire me so much more than any other person I've ever had the privilege of listening to. Because of you I work hard to make the music I know and love and push myself to get better every single day. No matter where life leads either of us, I want you to know that I will always respect and admire the things you've done, and will do, and will continue to follow your career until I'm in the ground.

  • @jabbzie
    @jabbzie 4 роки тому +1

    Watching this changed my life in 2011.
    I wanted to be a musician so badly, nothing else appealed to me in the slightest.
    I tried and tried and it just never worked out.
    Looking back now, i realised i had the passion for it, but I honestly wasn't that good.
    But I soon realised I was good at talking to people and demonstrating new ideas to others.
    So I became a salesman, and have gone on to make a successful career out of it.
    If i hadn't watched this, and continued to follow my passion instead of what I was actually good at, I would not have been successful and be in a much worse position than I am today.
    Thank you Corey.

    I wish this video was out when I was in college. I received my AA (2 year degree) with mostly music classes. I loved playing and always wanted to play in an orchestra, or some band that played in packed stadiums. I never could get good enough to go into the symphonic band at my college. Only beginning jazz class. I poured most of my life into practicing and never seemed to get past a certain point. Several jobs later, I'm working for a pest prevention company and love it. I'm pretty good at it too.

  • @rogerj412
    @rogerj412 5 років тому +1

    I'm 33 and received my Bachelor's a little over 4 years ago. I would not change having the degree for anything but not because I'm truly passionate about the field. The people I met while getting my degree are some of the best people I've even known and I would not give them up for anything, especially my professors. That said my degree is in a field that I honestly couldn't care less about. I thought it was going to be something I could be good at and although I'm competent in the field I have absolutely no interest in it whatsoever. If you are going to college or feel you have to go to college all I can tell you is pursue something you love and are good at. Don't let anyone tell you that in order to be successful you must go to college first; some of the richest men on this planet never went to college , or never finished their degrees.

    Ya I heard the boo boo from the chick, but ...... holy crap what an awesome talk from Corey. So approachable, so down to earth and so full of wisdom. He has lived more of a life than many of us put together due to the nature of his work, and we can all learn so much from this dude and vice versa. Totally loved this, can’t wait for the next parts 💜

  • @TheEddieWan
    @TheEddieWan 11 років тому +1

    I was following him up until the end of this video. When I was 16-21, I wanted more than anything to be a musician. A guitarist, songwriter, etc. After taking a few acting classes in college, I learned that I was more naturally talented at acting and theatrical performance. So according to Corey Taylor, I should be pursuing acting. But what about music? I still jam out in my basement and feel I'm God when I play. He says do what you enjoy at the end of this video. Contradicting his thesis.

  • @SuperUltra
    @SuperUltra 12 років тому

    I think I know what he means. I have a passion for music and when I was a teenager, I tried so hard to learn and master the guitar. I know my way around a guitar, but I couldn't master it... just wasn't me. Then I started drumming and found that it came naturally to me. 10 years of drumming and I haven't looked back.

  • @detjrad8242
    @detjrad8242 11 років тому +1

    This is a really good message he is trying to send to all of you, and all you care about is who's better than him and who's not. Why not actually watch the video and think about what he says because he's right.

    Do you think she got it wrong on purpose? I mean she is stood in Oxford saying "all hope is gone" which is very grim (such is slipknot) or "all hope is good" (which is what education is kind of roughly aiming for)?

    i have feeling thats what corey is trying to say... that doing something youre good at will give you success and a sense of accomplishment that will make you love what you do

    I caught that too, but his overall point is good. Too many people focus on improving their negatives instead of promoting their positives. It was kinda funny to hear him say "I do it because I love it" after saying the talent comes first, and love comes after.

    @Noxas4 Your comment is exactly right. What he chose as a premise was flawed because it's not consistent. I understood what he meant however. He was trying to get across that you need to evaluate your situation and do what you're good at rather than love at first. He made it pretty clear that he didn't graduate HS so I wasn't expecting a scholar here. He is really trying to help people.

    @Petrophski 11 років тому

    Off topic, however I just finished watching 'Rock of Ages' and couldn’t help but feel that perhaps as Corey’s film debut he could do a musical. I know that sounds insane at first, but think about it-every musical we have ever seen has been geared towards women. I imagine a massive musical that pulls in as many well know actors as 'Rock of Ages’ but includes the music of Stone Sour, Slipknot, and Corey Taylor!! How sick would that be! The first man’s musical-with a wicked story of course!

    That's what I'm talking about though, being able to write lyric after lyric song after song. It's so hard if it's not your strong point, which is were the talent comes in.
    I've writen lyrics for 2 bits of 2 songs I wrote, both in my uploads, Butterfly, and Lost and Found. Both one off's but I can't do it at the click of a finger like a lyricist can. THAT's where the talent comes in. Some people can, some poeple can't so that to me is, what a talent is.

    @JeremyPringsheim 12 років тому

    @NightmareCinemaChild i actually agree with you bro, is it easier to learn to love what you're good at ? or get good at something you love ? and he said something alone the lines of "i would eventually play music anyway, because i love it so much" which is not the same as "even if i hated it, i would still do it because im good at it" Corey's still the friggin man though, i wonder how the rest of this pans out!

  • @zombieslayer951
    @zombieslayer951 12 років тому

    @NightmareCinemaChild he developed a love for he, which he speaks about. he said if you continue to do what you are good at, you will eventually grow to love it and have a passion for it. he had a talent of music and he grew to love it. no contradiction
