U sick fuck!

dadadadadaada presto presto no no!
Marinesoldier54 fuck you Cohen!!
spagetti001 "COHEN, YOU SICK FUCK! LET ME OUT OF THIS!"
In Bioshock 2, if you have a little sister gather in the Cohen's Collection room of Dionysus Park, a ghostly laugh comes from nowhere and this theme plays during the fight. Genius.
Pleasantly surprised when that happened
That scared the shit out of me at first but it was pleasantly welcomed!
Hay algún video? La verdad no recuerdo eso😅
So when Gary Schyman wrote this, he had no idea that a character was going to be blown up in the middle of it.
Apparently he was pleasantly surprised when he learned this. Not sure it that's a good thing, but this song is truly great.
well, he was PLEASANTLY surprised
This song is perfectly chaotic in just the Right way. I love it.
But I'm sure he was given some guidance that he's supposed to write something that sounds like a composition of a madman.
@@handris99 In "Composing Bioshock Park 1," it says "Schyman was tasked with creating a piano concerto that sounded like the pianist was actively struggling playing it. He reported that it was technically complex and fun to write, but was not given the details regarding its final use. He was pleasantly surprised to see the pianist being blown up while playing his composition."
of course he liked the blown out part, artist get nervous by the ending of their composition
For me the mind blowing thing was that, despite being batshit crazy, Cohen appeared to be one of the saner, "in control" people you've met in the game so far. It's like he was so insane that he stack overflowed into sanity.
Rapture has spiraled so deep into utter madness that a complete maniac like Cohen not only fits perfectly, but appears to be one of the saner people left.
"In a world full of insane people, the sane would be the insane."
-random quote i remembered
ngl i love this man
All these people are based off of subversives/spies during Weimar Germany lol. It's crazy how none of you know this... Hirschfeld for example is based off of a REAL LIFE QUACK who did insane sex change experiments on people, cut up their faces etc. You can find info on this in a docu here on youtube called "Berlin Sin Cities"
I'd think it was because he wasn't really a splicer? The others are crazy due to the addiction to Adam and such, but cohen is just mad in the arts, of course he probably dabbled with Adam himself, but not to the extent of others in rapture, who got hooked to it due to the civil war and general chaos, cohen was already mad before any of that, doubt he even really cared about the war and such, just wanted to do art
@@kingofstrangeness7014 He was a splicer, when attacked he reacts like a Houdini splicer with fireballs and teleporting. But I agree that it was probably his obsession with art that let him "remain sane"
"Once again, young Fitzpatrick."
R.I.P. Kyle Fitzpatrick
😂 he was the best person to ever live
+callen gruwell He is the future of the Rapture music industry!
I read the book before playing the game and absolutely loved Fitzpatrick so you could imagine my immense disappointment 😔✋
This song is the only reason why Fitzpatrick is remembered as a character.
F for FitzPatrick
This song is written with blood and madness, and I love it
the beginning is my favorite part i bet this song just plays on repeat in hell.
Aj Carter That's a beautiful idea, I like the way you think.
It was a pleasure to just to see this sentence written down.
this song is too beautiful for hell
cannibal corpse will probably plays on repeat in hell
NO, NOOO, NOOOOO!!! IT'S ALL WRONG!!!
Shut up fruitcake, you played this one yourself!!, you blew up Fitzpatrick before he even reached the middle of the song
Sander Cohen How dare you question my authenticity, impostor!
Sander Cohen Well... this is awkward.
Why should i be embarrassed knowing i'm the real one?
Sander Cohen well I would have to say this piece is one of the products produced by my fine city and by a man that took his own path and chose to shun the parasites restricting ways and truly thrive
I wrote this.
An artist lives on through his work.
No I wrote this you imbecile, is a man not entitled to the sweat of his brow?
Sander Cohen excuse me gentlemen but we should all know who there dealing with
Goodoluncle edd Lake just a tear
hahaha this man is crazy. but you are dead after end the song. by a explotion xD!
Sometimes, I just want to bash my skull in so that I can forget this game and replay it forever like it was the first time. One of my favorite games ever.
t h i s
This song really gave the mystique that Bioshock needed to be what it is. I love this song, it really makes you feel the tragic downfall that hit rapture and it's society, the loss. Walking around, seeing the dystopia, yet, a place that wants to be explored. All the while listening to this song, seeing what it could have been. You can hear and see what the story line wants you to.
THIS SONG IS A RIP-OFF
>>scriabin etude
👿👿👿👿👿👿👿👿👿👿
@@FrankCosbyNo-Relation congratulations, you ain’t got no musical sense at all
@@ritterdessuprematismus I'm not the one ripping-off someone else's song
I'm trying to learn this on piano. Lemme tell you, it's not as hard as it sounds.
It's much, much worse.
Look on the bright side, your piano won't explode if you don't excecute it perfectly
***** Haha nice
***** Don't be so sure.
Sander Cohen Ahh, good point. Good point.
Progress: I figured out the first bar.
I made a terrible choice to learn this piece. One year after the piano has been untouched, I actually made a decision to learn this song. Today was my first day, and my hands are aching. Hopefully I'll finish it soon.
Have learnt harder. But lets face it - you wouldn't call this shiz easy
I doubt that very much.
@@sebdewitt9205 currently learning Yuri on Ice, which I'd say is harder (for me anyway) as it's faster and the notes aren't all the same in length (always struggled with the beat of the music).
That's considering I abandoned piano again after learning this song, so now I'm retuning to the very basics and instead of just learning the notes (and playing them at the right speed) I'm actually putting the effort into the fundamentals (huUUUUUGE for me).
Harder music certainly exists 😅
@@reb2229 cool to see ur still alive
@@skullnumb1532 ♡♡♡
I loved how he got in between the Atlas and Ryan in the game. Secured us from the indefinite manipulations and make us his 'little moth' for some unique time. Once in a lifetime experience. It was perfect, never truly wanted to leave the room when i was done with his quest...
If there's ever been a piece that better defined insanity I'd like to hear it.
watch soul eater. Wait for soul evans to play the piano.

how about a link?

This game is my everything
I here ya buddy
Hear* :P
Same buddy
jenny el I'm about to watch the gameplay of it...
jenny el Best game ever.
"So Fitzpatrick...were you rushing or were you dragging?"
Cohen is Fletcher
NOT MY TEMPO
@@sparklefacebros636 *hurls folding chair*
"Why do you suppose I just blew you up, Fitzpatrick?"
Cohen: now then, young pitzpatrick, Would you kindly play that in allegro!
'Jack pushes pitzpatrick over and plays the piano himself'
And for the encore, he hurls the piano at the pale white nutjob sitting in the balcony with telekinesis.
But I don't even know how to play the piano! Besides I wouldn't want to explode! But then again he did say would you kindly....
Jack Ryan would you kindly bury elezibeths lovley corpes
Right away. *buries her lovely self in the most perfect spot in Arcadia* there, good?
r.i.p elizebeth
There is something truly amazing about this piece. It symbolizes what happened to Rapture perfectly.
Cohen: No, no no! Again
Kyle: I'm sorry Mr Cohen I'm trying! (cries)
(continues to play piano)
Cohen: Da, da da daaaa! No, faster!
Kyle: (sobs) Oh Cohen, LET ME OUT OF HERE YOU SICK FUC....(piano explodes)
Bioshock.....so many golden memories :)
Again young Fitzpatrick
LET ME GO YOU SICK FUCK
TheJacobi101 *songbird in the background* WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
LexioRules no, no, no its not like that its more like this, listen: SKREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!. see?
*Jack:* [Shoots the dynamite]
*Cohen:* ...Well, that was quicker.
I really like this song for some reason. Now would you kindly like this song.
would you kindly
@@Creedio90 a powerful phrase. A familiar phrase...
It's weird, if the piece is played even a tiny bit incorrect it loses some if the beauty in the making. The emotion and insanity of it all is just amazing. It switches through different emotions and rises and sets almost naturally. It is almost understanding of why in the scene Cohen stopped Fitzpatrick. If he didn't the start of the piece would have just acted as a flimsy support for the rest of the masterpiece, continuing would have been a mistake. A great care must be out into playing this piece and emotion must be shown throughout, expressing the different themes and ideas behind each part. Played correctly this is just beautiful.
Da da da da da dAaa! PRESTO PRESTO! No NOO
Once again, Fitzpatrick.
+Hassan Henry fitzpatrick: im tryyiing
Kate Livie Allegro, allegro! No no!
+Hassan Henry PRESTO PRESTO ALLEGRO allegro !!! its funny because at the end its andante :)
SierzantYelonek Then he dies because of that. What a way to go.
I used this as background music for an audio project in high school. When I presented it, my teacher asked "Did you do the music too?"
To this day, I wish I said: "Yes. I am _that_ talented!"
The main line of this is very Danse Macabre-esque.
i think it probably ties in with the time travel stuff, and how other famous songs from alternate dimensions fit on...i honestly think it is danse macabre. its too similar not to be.
Even though some people didn't even get the chance to "dance"
This song is like beautiful melancholy... idk how else to describe it. Never played Bioshock but it’s just such a beautiful piece that you can get lost in.
You should seriously play the bio shock series you won’t regret it :)
Play it, you won't regret it. The game is pure art
I just wish all the latest video games had music this good.
i like how this song jumps from calm melodic parts, to sporadic violent parts, it fits cohens charecter perfectly.
the insanity in this piece is just beautiful, the way you get a glimpse of Cohen's warped mind through his music. The amount of work they put into this game is just astounding, truly a masterpiece
sometimes when im alone i dress up as a carrot, lay down and blast this into my eardrum
Nial Sum so hot 😂
Me too!!!
what
This composition seems a bit... Off. Like it was played by two completely different persons, I guess that fits Cohen perfectly. Killing a bunch of splicers while Waltz of the Flowers was playing in the background was my favorite part of the game (whole Fort Frolic part was great).
I think what you are trying to say is the piece has contrasting elements of dissonance and consonance
Not sure if you are still active on this profile but the right and left hand are on different tempos and there are intentional errors in the song that's what makes it so different
It's completely off, that's the point. The notes themselves are mainly correct, but there are some strategically placed mistakes. It's mainly the insane, erratic tempo that makes no sense, and the constant clash of dissonant and consonant elements, and also the dynamic changing constantly (some parts are unusually quiet, at some he literally bangs the keys).
It's really like being inside a mind of a batshit insane person like Cohen.
I love Cohen and his visual art throught the level, particularly the "Frozen family" (yes, I am aware those are actual frozen people). I think in this level, the reason why he takes us under his wing goes beyond mere ego like Ryan says. I think he knows, at some extent, that Jack is a slave, not a man. Like him, Jack is cursed. Traped in his own body and mind (I think that's also why Cohen's splicers don't speak, it's to show us that we are no different from those mindless servants). But he knows Jack has the potential to transform the world the world, and the actual technique to do it, unlike his old proteges. He just has to embrace what he can do by himself. Not care about other people's opinions. But to do that, Cohen believes he has to break us. Make us be so mentally exausted, that we just don't care anymore how we reach the end of our journey. Because it's when you're tired, that you do what you believe that needs to be done.
"Oh Cohen, you sick fuck! Let me out of this!" KABOOM
This song will always have a place in my heart. Sander Cohen is a true splicer!
This is what insanity sounds like.
Because people go insane trying to learn this piece *tears*
Best Character in the Bioshock Franchise. Love him to death.
Me too 😘
This should've played when we met up with him in Burial at Sea.
Actually, Fitzpatrick played this in Burial at Sea with an accordion.
TheBadassNephilim Huh, I must've missed it.
It played when Booker and Elizabeth were dancing for Cohen.
I want to take the ears off, but I can't. I hop, and when I hop, I never get off the ground. It's my curse, my eternal curse! I want to take the ears off but I can't! It's my curse! It's my fucking curse! I want to take the ears off! Please! Take them off! Please!
"Plleeeeeeasee!!" hahaha . That was simultaneously hilarious and disturbing when I first heard that audio diary!
Cohen is ... such a beautiful character. He is the personification of Pride, of narcissism, of talent and grandeur. All this wrapped in the velvet sheets of madness. Oh, my dear Cohen, you are the Madonna of Spine tingling sensation. Your music ... like a pheonix rising. And each tap upon the piano ... each haunting little note resonates down my spine. True genius! Can you find the man through the madness ... or the music?
Sandler Cohen ... FTW!!
"At his best, man is the nobelest of all animals, separated from law and justice, he is the worst" -aristotle
A beautiful song.
Also, Sander Cohen was great, a tragic artesian trapped within a world of madness who became what he saw, and found a ruinous beauty in an insane world of death and destruction.
He was the most memorable character I've ever seen in a video game.
This game is just absolutely beautiful. I had never played it and started because of the quarantine. I can say it was just love at first sight. No other game could possibly top this.
Maybe...
What a masterpiece, the kind an artist would paint!
You're a real biscuit
MY MUSE SHALL NOT BE MOCKED!!
There shall be no failure on my canvas!
+Atlas Productions THIS IS BIOSHOCK NOT INFINITE !!!
Uhh...
I have played all Bioshock saga but...
Only Bioshock 1 remains in my memory.
Once again, young flitzpatrick
The first thing that comes to mind when describing this song is: Beautiful Chaos
Again young Fitzpatrick!
Da Da Da Da!
Cohen you sick fuck!
Once again young Fitzpatrick
just starting to learn piano. this is where i want to reach
Reaching this level is definitely not attainable in 2 years unless you devote at least 5 hours a day to serious practice.
***** Why is it so hard to learn it?
clowntrooper61 It's pretty technical; arpeggios, etc. It's not impossible to play, but it's just not something that you could do after 2 years. Most people would still be playing pretty rudimentary pieces after 2 years of practice.
***** With a good teacher and a good appetite for learning and practice...I'd say probably around 4-6 years. Your age and your predisposition towards music will also factor in; the younger you are and the more natural talent you have, the faster you'll get to this level.
***** If you really want to learn this song, it's attainable. You'll have a motivation to learn, and will most likely learn faster. Just don't skip things that you don't think are important!
Gathering ADAM in Dionysos Park and this starts playing
That feeling, holy shoot!
I don't know about the madness this song represents, but I can only imagine some kind of eerie environment within the game...
update: I played the game, and a theater is not something I thought about
@@jamesdong8179 Maybe the best environment in any game I’ve ever played. The whole section is eerie, and amazing. Good for you for updating 4 years later too, brother.
This track is officially one of the best I've ever heard in gaming!
I just discovered this masterpiece, and it's just too amazing.
Ahhhh yes. My ears !!!!!!! Such lovely memories of my masterpiece
I'm sure I'm not the first person to think of this, but I'm going to say it anyway. Personally I think this piece speaks volumes about the general progression of the game. Starts out fairly simple, yet with ominous warnings on the surface, gradually increasing in intensity. Then suddenly hits you with pure insanity, with the main melody gradually decending into pure chaos and confusion. With brief rests in the middle for the player to catch their breath, only to be thrust back in to the distortion and darkness that is Rapture. And finally, with the last few bars/ measures hitting you like the big reveal at the end of it all.
I want to take the ears off,... but I can´t...
I remember listening to this song almost a decade ago. Seems like such a distant memory.
Sander Cohen:" dadadadadada Presto, Presto no no. Again young Fitzpatrick". "Fly little moth fly!"
I made a Sander Cohen character in Fallout 4, I have everything but those laugh lines, of course I could not have the penciled on mustache, so I went with Dead Man's Hand and the thinnest eyebrows possible. Like I said the face is perfect accept for the laugh lines.
+Kiyoko504 Get a mod for it
I love this game so fucking much, 2K can have both my kidneys for another BioShock
I honestly can't help but feel bad for Cohen.
I imagine him sitting alone in that theatre, crying his eyes out as he plays. He cries because of frustration, he cries from loneliness, and he cries in an addition to his quiet rage as he realizes that, truly, as an artist is nothing without an audience....he is nothing.
And so he plays his masterpiece, his Scherzo, in lamentation of his life, a half-life, as his sanity slowly slips away until he is no longer a man, but a monster.
Whoever did this needs to be given huge credit. This is something Beethoven would be jealous us.
They weren't lying with the title
"Oh Cohen you sick fuck let me out of this!"
BOOM!
*Takes photo*
Songbird's call then playing quietly in the background
TheMasterchiefan We are in Bioshock 1, not infinite so GTFO...
+axl aaron martinez gomez during bioshock while playing this piece, you can hear the songbird scream in pain.
I can just see him...playing this piece hunched over a piano, maniacal smile on his face, laughing...
This music is chilling, a tribute to any collection. You can feel ... rage, determination, madness, sorrow and success. You can feel the twitch in your fingers and when you hear the soft tapping upon those ivories your mind dances along the keys. Haunting, beautiful, you can see the mind within the madness. Cohen is a genius, a character of skill and wit and insanity, all blended into a deliciously attractive villain. Ode to thee, Mr. Cohen; ode to thee.
Cohen FTW! =3
I couldn't have said it better myself. Wonderful
For me, this piece summarizes the whole series, it's just amazing, bizarre, brilliant,sad,nostalgic, all at the same time. I can't find any words to describe it, it has that thing that I can't find and feel in other games,
I’m not crying you are
Hey guys is Charborg. Today I'm showing you my Rust base which also is a deathrun maze.
This is such an under rated musical piece. Absolutely beautiful
In my opinion best character and part of the game
I agree ❤
The music of an insane mind....
.... I love it!
Once again young Fitzpatrick... that explosive is not going to blow itself up...!
Never seen madness beauty and steampunk in a way so perfect. This game is beyond a masterpiece.
I never liked this song being called Cohens masterpiece since in the game he is clearly trying to evolve the creation into a masterpiece, in that process he of course blows up the dude trying his best.
Beauty and perfection from chaos and disorder is the essence of transcendence. This is as much the composers masterpiece as it was Cohen's
Once again, young Fitzpatrick!
Sander Cohen I think your muse isn't even worth a dime for that junk
2021 Here, nobody can beat this on piano..
I blew up fitzpatrick with a grenade thinking he was a splicer and I felt hella bad afterwards so I went and loaded the old save file only to realise he still explodes
Cohen was so amazing! I've never seen a video game character with so much depth and uniqueness to their personalties. We need more characters like him in our games.
just played the level in fort frolic after almost 11 years, holy shit is it amazing
probably the most satisfiying moment in gaming i have ever been through. insane piano playing, complete madness as the guy get's burtaly murdered and songbird screaming in the background. truly a masterpiece
I tried playing this on piano
The beginning is easy but then when it gets to that development section after the chords oh God please help me it's so hard. it sounds good though, seriously how did this guy make this up it sounds like he made Chopin insane
PerfyPineapple I tried to play this on piano my hands well....I cant fap any more
There is no learning in art they say, you just 'feel' like doing something, and this happens. Brutal reality. Fuck that sir!
I'm currently practicing it for a recital coming up, and yes it's very hard lmao.
I love it so much
@@edenitebattleaxe How did it go? Did you nail it or fail it?
@@WH40KHero nailed it 🥺❤️ thank you for asking!!! That's so sweet:) It was lovely
This song is the reason I first bought and played Bioshock. You can literally hear Cohen's mental state in the notes.
i love the mistakes in this masterpiece
Thank you. Mine has been a most arduous journey and all-around effort to make clear the expression of my feelings within the word limit of UA-cam, and within my given vernacular.
I truly appreciate your perceived respect for my grammatical pursuits. Really made my day.
For those who have played this game maybe agree with me. This song should be one of the best game's soundtrack ever. Its interaction with Cohen's points of view are just simply perfect. Have you seen @salomepiano performance cover? I suggest you to do so. It is beautiful.
By the way, did you know you can shoot the bomb around FritzPatrick's piano and Cohen will make an comment
Alex Stallwitz huh, never knew... what does he say?
Alex Stallwitz oh, that was faster of what I thought, something like that, I hit him with the wrench and then he commented that, I was laughing so hard.
I could listen to this all day!
i'm dazed by this song. it's an undisputable master piece
Sander cohen is still alive and well,and rapture is back too
We need people to help rebuild fort frolic
Those notes comes like a bullet. That's perfect!!!
This song tells a story of drama, sadness, love and life . Perfectly fits the story of Rapture.
This song should be recognized as a true piece of musical genius
I know why you've come, little moth.
This song definitely goes scream 'tortured, crazed soul,' and I love it.
HAPPY 10th ANNIVERSARY!
I agree,im a HUGE fan of bioshock,have both games all dlc played each game more than 5 times,read the book twice,i love bioshock.best game i will have ever played in my life.
