@@Armadillo-bg2qi I think Charlie just doesn't understand how obvious many of the mistakes were to a musician. To a good musician, simply being told it needs more work is enough. They should already know where their major mistakes were. It is _extremely_ rare to come out of a performance and think it was perfect. In the few times that it happens, people will shake your hand and tell you it's the most perfect performance of that piece they've heard in their life. If they don't already know their mistakes, then it's unlikely that I'd be able to write something that would be able to convey it without writing a novel in YT comments. Well, other than very high level criticisms like stalling too long on hand transitions, not using the pedal enough, failing to keep tempo. That's just technical stuff, not even onto musicality improvements which is much harder to explain.
The funniest part is it’s a custom arrangement and people don’t even appreciate that. You can’t just go online and find simplified versions of Rush E. Well, you can, but they’ll all be the same one or two versions. This is HIS arrangement, adding even more skill to this feat.
Fr, people don't get that half of the difficulty, and honestly most of the brainwork (for me anyway) goes into arranging/transcribing the music rather than learning the piece itself.
I like to imagine that Fanchen actually knew nothing about piano before this, and his piano abilities were fuelled by nothing other than pure spite and hubris.
As a guitarists I can guarantee you that type of trash talking will get him verbally assaulted and if said to the wrong guitarist, punched. In short, talent means nothing if you can't defend yourself
He apparently has a piano video from five years ago. Still, not impressed that he decided to be an arrogant piece of shit just because he knows how to play the piece better than an aspiring musician.

@@jameshakai1662 The thing is, a lot of pianists, especially the good ones, are classically-trained musicians.

@Dylan Ogega Yes it is. Arrogance is arrogance, regardless of whether you’re actually capable or talented. Two people can both be superb at something, one can be arrogant about it and the other can be humble.
EPILOGUE: Fanchen and the guy he called mediocre collaborated with 2 other people to make a version of rush E with 4 people. The villan and the hero with the help of support characters have made an alliance and made the end of a story, a very impressive end indeed.
As a competitive pianist, this guy is good. Like really good. For non-music people it’s almost impossible to feel the sheer magnitude of the difference, but his technique is incredibly clear.
A someone who was raised on piano and music, I think it would be fair to call myself an "intermediate" musician, though to be fair I basically "gave up" at about 15-16. Though I have some talents, I've never considered myself special. What I've come to learn is that music (and the arts in general) is very intangible to non-artists/musicians. Laymen tend to percieve it as some sort of arcane wizardry rather than simply a skill that one improves at over a lifetime. The first guy is very obviously a hobbyist with maybe a few years under their belt and the second is a serious musican who's probably been playing since childhood. It's like comparing someone who's been studying a language for 2-3 years to a native speaker. I think many have experienced this phenomenon, when you're someone who practices hours a day and you walk outside of your bubble into the laymen world it can be very jarring. You're baffled by the things you see people being impressed by. It's not because you're an asshole, it's likely because you've spent a lifetime being told you're not special yourself and being made to iron out imperfections that are very glaringly obvious to you. I think there's similar things such as chess, gynamastics, etc. People don't really understand the levels of self-criticalness those worlds can leave you with, you're basically getting heavily roasted starting at age 5. It can actually be unhealthy.
Fanchen, the og uploader, and another piano channel uploaded an "8 arm rendition" of RushE with all of them that slaps. The og postwr and fanchen are on good terms. This story has a real happy ending
Serious question though. The guy asks why would people dislike this. And he responded with essentially "eh i just didn't think it was that good" what's wrong with that
Fanchen said in the description of his own video that his definition of mediocre is that it has room for improvement, and he and the creator of the original video even teamed up to make a video together. From the guy's perspective though, it seemed like Fanchen was being an ass. The guy commented on this video to say that he was sorry for making assumptions, and Fanchen responded to this by saying that he and the guy were "basically married now" in the description of his UA-cam video.
Well it's because mediocre isn't always "essentially" what you said it is. Mediocre does mean average, but it often has a more negative and condescending tone than if you said okay, fine, 5/10, or not good not bad. It comes of as, "it's not as good as it you think it is/it's extremely underwhelming" . Again, those sayings can mean the same thing as "fine", but they sound like the person doesn't care about other people's opinions.
Fr I also hate that people dislike him for giving his opinion. People saying he was being a jerk and should have given constructive criticism don’t make no sense. Using that logic you would have to say why it’s good and can’t just give a compliment by itself
@Allegator07 good comment! Edit: damn, sorry, good comment because you made a coherent and well formed point that I interpreted as good because of all the history of my life that has led my brain to be in the state it was when I read your comment and allowed me to interpret it as good! Edit 2: crud, my edit went against your point, so I'll retract and just say "good comment".
Yeah. Like that one time I got pissed at someone calling sharks murderous beasts so I spent over an hour looking for credible sources. They never replied, I wonder why?
Being a classical musician for around 1 millisecond, I can tell you that this is how a lot of classical musicians treat eachother from what I’ve experienced - especially in professional settings.
his attitude is what drives classical music to be one of the most prestigious arts, if people aren't elitist about skill there won't be as much drive to pour your life and soul into practicing
Wouldve been so funny if the hentai dude commented “mediocre performance, no offense”. And then just uploads his version of the song which is 50x better
In the end they work together to put play the third pianist who played better then both of them but when the three unite the play the impossible version and grab a pizza together
Crazy thing is, people are actually just attacking him and being toxic towards him for literally NO reason. All that Fanchen said was that the rendition had room for improvment. People somehow saw it as "lmao this shit is ass delete it rn" and began to hate him and calling him names for no reason at ALL. He even admit, he didn't mean anything negative by it, he was just saying that there was room for improvement, and that he should have put more effort into the play before uploading it online. Remember kids, don't hate someone just because you don't know 'em!
And the worst thing of all is that just a guy who like hentai unironically even admit that fanchen wasn’t even the bad guy afterwards and he just got heated
i feel like if you imagine this as a conversation it’s so normal. like: “what did you think of my playing” “yeah it was alright, room for improvement tho keep on playing and practicing” fanchen didn’t insult his whole bloodline and curse him to 100 years of torture for uploading an ok performance, bro just gave his opinion and proved he had the experience to know what he was saying.
@@agingerredhead9380 even so, not all criticism should be taken too personal either, these people are acting like they’re gonna always see toxic ppl in the internet
Nah, he said it was mediocre without going into detail. Indistinguishable from a random troll comment you see under every such video. You just choose to read it as a positive comment because if what happened afterwards. The fact that he was good at it, does not change that. People are just defending this guy because he "won" in the end, and people like to be on the winning side, no matter how that side actually behaves. If you're good at something and you go on UA-cam mocking people who aren't as good as you, that is apparently acceptable to a lot of people here, because you "win", so they will side with you. Even though they all would have condemned that exact same comment if he HADN'T bothered to put up a video. This whole comment section is kind of depressing, honestly.
Fanchen was only using 2% of his power. He could've played the whole piece but unfortunately, his piano wouldn't even be able to withstand the onslaught.
I totally get his ideals. His thinking was that "if I were going to spend the time to learn something and show off my skills, I would be more refined." And then when people called him out, he did it
@@chairjacker i really doubt he made a comment to some random vid and expected to get called out then for that argument to blow up then for someone like Charlieto make a vid on it lol
@@minatonamikaze7504 that sounds pretty reasonable except for the last part, he could've 100% just wanted attention. No way he expected THIS attention but, I'd imagine he did want attention to some degree.

it’s not that deep i really think people like that are better than the *holy your an ultra pianist* he’d only stay at the level he’s at if everyone told him that but if you get people that tell you something is mediocre even if it’s not it just instills this burning feeling of wanting to do better and actually pushing yourself to the limit
I think that he is not only a great pianist, he is also a damn good marketeer, the way he built hype for the video was unreal. I think it was all on purpose ngl.
@williammarchand253 that is irrelevant though. To his skill level. The original video piano player was really was A Mediocre to him. Age never was the focus of the argument. It was about skill.
@@timexyemerald6290 Yeah the person got what they asked for, they couldn't fathom what mediocre is because they were a non-player. Had to sting because it also reveals that their musical taste and ear was atrocious. Glad they got pwned LMAO
@@cevcena6692 I don't think that the "talent" is the problem. Like penguin said, when it comes to piano most people only know about Mozart, Bach, I would add Beethoven and the last guy/girl being crowned by the general media as the new wonder of the current generation. Those talented classical musicians don't get that much acknowledgement outside of their own turf, in fact they reminded me of chess players, lot of talented people, but people only care about Kasparof, Fisher and this young guy I forgot the name. But this is what you get when you're into things that aren't that popular.
@@cevcena6692 "But the problem is they know it". Huh? I fail to see how it's a problem when someone knows they're good at something. They know their worth.
@@kebiwoni there is knowing your talents worth, and then there’s acting like because of that talent, they are superior in every way to everyone else who isn’t talented at that thing too, which is what the first guy means when he says “but the problem is they know it”
I think it’s worse to have someone who gets told “Do it better than, jerk” and then decides to dedicate 5 years of their life to learning an entire trade just to do it better.
@@1404kevinmicik Yeah, but that implies he was already good at piano. That’s not as terrifying to me as “Someone said I couldn’t do it, let me take a college course and master the trade so that I can prove them wrong”
Gotta give Fanchen credit, starting up drama makes more people inclined to watch his video. He secured significantly more views compared to had he just posted the video and said he was inspired. Hopefully he does come across nicer in the future, as he is certainly capable of providing really good criticism because of his skill.
Also, the hentai guy was annoying. Constantly spamming "How can anyone diswike dis!" across videos is incredibly stupid and adds nothing to the conversation.
Yeah it's a great strategy. Hating on some random pianist who just wanted to upload his rendition of a piece of music, so that he can make him feel down about it and piss people off so much that it gets people to come to his channel. I should use that. I have a lot of young pianists to shame rn.
People have different ways of elaborating their argument. Fanchen's way of elaboration is more effective in backing up his argument than just spouting out some musical theories that will fly over most people's heads.
and thats probably what fanchen meant but generally, the word has earned a lot of negative connotation recently, the word mediocre is treated as just shy of bad, not as middle of the road as its supposed to be
If you put his talent into perspective，he probably genuienly thought the first performance was mediocre instead of intentionalky trying to be an a-hole
Yeah I didn't even really see it as him being an asshole either. Everybody keeps saying "he should have offered tips" How the hell is he going to give him tips in a comment section like that lmao

@@rock4glory713 too people that practice piano that’s actually being nice most of them probably would started shifting on him all day even then franchin still thinks he can polish it even more to him it just seems like a normal comment
@@ihatenagi ye I figured. I've done a lot of music stuff and I honestly think piano players and clarinet players are the worst. I'm not saying all just in my expirence and that seems to be the stereotype.
as someone who's been playing piano for 12 years, you can absolutely tell fanchen has more experience than the person in the first video. his hand/wrist position and absolute command over the tone his keys are producing are impressive, and hard to replicate without years at the piano under your belt. the person in the first video wasn't bad at all, but clearly lacked the experience fanchen had. as well as this, you could tell he had spent more time polishing or even just recording his piece, which is a huge element. every musician knows you can't get good without religiously rehearsing. for a piece i played recently, i spent hours a week practising, for about 18 months, to get it from scratch to competition standard. so all in all, the person in the first video wasn't bad, they just needed to spend a little more time at the keys and they'd be even better than they were.
@@eonstar yeah but i mean every pianist has practiced rush e for a bit so he probably already knew how to play it. still a good performance though but the in still mediocre compared to other pianists(i know it’s a wrong comparison but it was the guys point so…)
if fanchen had only been practicing for a week (not mentioning any previous practice of the song) , and we can assume the original uploader had been practicing since he had intentions to post a video of himself playing, they had probably practiced about the same amount. fanchen just has more experience, nothing wrong with that
He definetly was a fucking worm there. Making some effort and trying to show your best version of a music, even if it's not that good, should be something to be praised, it gives you a reason to keep playing and getting better. Shaming someone by trying his best, even if you think you can do better, is far worse than disgusting in my point of view. I'm mesmerized people liked that douchebag because he could play better

As a competitive pianist, this guy is good. Like really good. For non-music people it’s almost impossible to feel the sheer magnitude of the difference, but his technique is incredibly clear.
A someone who was raised on piano and music, I think it would be fair to call myself an "intermediate" musician, though to be fair I basically "gave up" at about 15-16. Though I have some talents, I've never considered myself special. What I've come to learn is that music (and the arts in general) is very intangible to non-artists/musicians. Laymen tend to percieve it as some sort of arcane wizardry rather than simply a skill that one improves at over a lifetime.
The first guy is very obviously a hobbyist with maybe a few years under their belt and the second is a serious musican who's probably been playing since childhood. It's like comparing someone who's been studying a language for 2-3 years to a native speaker.
I think many have experienced this phenomenon, when you're someone who practices hours a day and you walk outside of your bubble into the laymen world it can be very jarring. You're baffled by the things you see people being impressed by. It's not because you're an asshole, it's likely because you've spent a lifetime being told you're not special yourself and being made to iron out imperfections that are very glaringly obvious to you.
I think there's similar things such as chess, gynamastics, etc. People don't really understand the levels of self-criticalness those worlds can leave you with, you're basically getting heavily roasted starting at age 5. It can actually be unhealthy.
How can you dislike this? I don't see anyone else actually playing it.

Serious question though. The guy asks why would people dislike this. And he responded with essentially "eh i just didn't think it was that good" what's wrong with that
Fanchen said in the description of his own video that his definition of mediocre is that it has room for improvement, and he and the creator of the original video even teamed up to make a video together.
From the guy's perspective though, it seemed like Fanchen was being an ass. The guy commented on this video to say that he was sorry for making assumptions, and Fanchen responded to this by saying that he and the guy were "basically married now" in the description of his UA-cam video.
Well it's because mediocre isn't always "essentially" what you said it is. Mediocre does mean average, but it often has a more negative and condescending tone than if you said okay, fine, 5/10, or not good not bad. It comes of as, "it's not as good as it you think it is/it's extremely underwhelming" . Again, those sayings can mean the same thing as "fine", but they sound like the person doesn't care about other people's opinions.
Fr I also hate that people dislike him for giving his opinion. People saying he was being a jerk and should have given constructive criticism don’t make no sense. Using that logic you would have to say why it’s good and can’t just give a compliment by itself

Crazy thing is, people are actually just attacking him and being toxic towards him for literally NO reason. All that Fanchen said was that the rendition had room for improvment.
People somehow saw it as "lmao this shit is ass delete it rn" and began to hate him and calling him names for no reason at ALL.

Nah, he said it was mediocre without going into detail. Indistinguishable from a random troll comment you see under every such video. You just choose to read it as a positive comment because if what happened afterwards.
The fact that he was good at it, does not change that. People are just defending this guy because he "won" in the end, and people like to be on the winning side, no matter how that side actually behaves. If you're good at something and you go on UA-cam mocking people who aren't as good as you, that is apparently acceptable to a lot of people here, because you "win", so they will side with you.
Even though they all would have condemned that exact same comment if he HADN'T bothered to put up a video.

@@k.g.b.1150 someone didn’t watch the video 💀
@@thomaspena1945 Piano is a extremely technical instrument, pianists give criticism to other pianists all the time unless the piece was redefined for hours
@@TheCardboardB_andit33 so u also didn't watch the video? Because calling something mediocre isn't criticism, you need to actually SAY what they should improve in
New title: "devil goes down to Georgia and fucking destroys johnny"
Lmfao
Haha great reference
Lol
AHAHAHHAHAHA IM DISENAGRATING
What a reference.
This man had the unbeatable bluff: one you can backup. Respect, he can go about it any fucking way he wants because he can back it up.
Honestly, yeh. Maybe he's trynna get to him to in a weird and brutal way, get him try tory harder cuz he sees potential in him. I've seen techniques like that used before.
@@rock4glory713 too people that practice piano that’s actually being nice most of them probably would started shifting on him all day even then franchin still thinks he can polish it even more to him it just seems like a normal comment
@@ihatenagi ye I figured. I've done a lot of music stuff and I honestly think piano players and clarinet players are the worst. I'm not saying all just in my expirence and that seems to be the stereotype.
@@rock4glory713 when you play piano you have to be blunt or the person won’t be able to improve
@@ihatenagi same goes with most things
Waiting to find out Fanchen is just a sham like a speedrunner thats been speedrunning for years
as someone who's been playing piano for 12 years, you can absolutely tell fanchen has more experience than the person in the first video. his hand/wrist position and absolute command over the tone his keys are producing are impressive, and hard to replicate without years at the piano under your belt. the person in the first video wasn't bad at all, but clearly lacked the experience fanchen had.
as well as this, you could tell he had spent more time polishing or even just recording his piece, which is a huge element. every musician knows you can't get good without religiously rehearsing. for a piece i played recently, i spent hours a week practising, for about 18 months, to get it from scratch to competition standard.
so all in all, the person in the first video wasn't bad, they just needed to spend a little more time at the keys and they'd be even better than they were.
fanchen's video came out either a week or earlier after that confrontation. I don't think as much time was spent on the piece specifically.
@@eonstar yeah but i mean every pianist has practiced rush e for a bit so he probably already knew how to play it. still a good performance though but the in still mediocre compared to other pianists(i know it’s a wrong comparison but it was the guys point so…)
Yeah, the second guy cheated because he practiced more!
if fanchen had only been practicing for a week (not mentioning any previous practice of the song) , and we can assume the original uploader had been practicing since he had intentions to post a video of himself playing, they had probably practiced about the same amount. fanchen just has more experience, nothing wrong with that
@@wjudee are you claiming that fanchen's performance was mediocre in a not meme sense?
this guy is like the villain that is loved by the fandom more than the protagonist is for no reason
@Camping Comrade fatherless
@Camping Comrade deez nuts
YES
@UC-iXS7dbJA2qfyFKqRY4NRg why are there- I don't think there is a single person who would fall for this bot, if so, I feel sorry for them
@Camping Comrade Max PFP.
Fanchen isn't a villain, he's an antihero.
That doesn't work here lol
He definetly was a fucking worm there. Making some effort and trying to show your best version of a music, even if it's not that good, should be something to be praised, it gives you a reason to keep playing and getting better. Shaming someone by trying his best, even if you think you can do better, is far worse than disgusting in my point of view. I'm mesmerized people liked that douchebag because he could play better
@@bigaltz6403 not gonna lie, through out he had some major character development and started becoming more constructive in the slightest way possible, hopefully he has some some redemption arc into his truly tragic backstory he has
@@bigaltz6403 Exactly. Just because he can play better doesnt justify his asinine comment. He's still punching down.
Yaal just justify him because he looked cool-
Bro I was expecting him to literally pick up the piano and smash it on the stage after that. Outstanding performance. Absolute chad.
