Man, I know they say classical is supposed to 'sooth' you, but that would be way more distracting than this:

 

Was listening to this with my 6.yo. daughter yesterday. In the middle of it she asked me 'What is backstreet ribbon?'.

I explained to her the phrase was 'Back seat rhythm'. She asked what 'rhythm' meant. I explained it to her.

She thought about it for a few seconds and said 'Oh, she likes to dance in the back seat. Me too.'

One of the reasons I will never have children. Too hard too explain things 

Well, there are benefits that outweigh things like this.

As soon as my daugher was old enough to walk and carry things, I started sending her to the fridge to get my beer.

It's funny, because that's the same reason my parents had me. Maybe it's the reason all people have children?

 If someone played a novelty in any opening, we should play " Thus spake Zarathustra" as an accompaniment .

I listened to the first 2 for about 20 seconds each. Does that make me 1/2 a moron with a brain twice the size of a boron?

You know,when I was younger, I liked classical music. Then I discoverd rock-n-roll.

I do believe my interest in classical music has led me to, usually, like rock bands and performers with REAL musical talent.

Thanks. I've never listened to Queensruche before. Not bad.

Talent is severely overrated. If I could have a lot of talent in the area of chose I would take it. If you could be someone else would you be? It's more about developing what you have, and the piano involves very little talent to become professional, contrary to what you may have heard or believed. Rock n' roll involves mostly talent, which should be cherished, but not as much as hard work. And, finally, in my opinion, classical music is better Smile

I listen to Bohemian Rhapsody when I play chess.

Not sure if you misunderstood me.

I was not saying piano players did not have talent. I meant I feel I have usually liked rock performers who had talent as opposed to the MANY MANY rock performers who had no real talent.

Okie. I listened to it. Harldy fair. My video was just 2 minutes, yours was almost 15. So I've put together 15 minutes of music here.

To accomodate your musical palette, I have only chosen music that uses cellos. Enjoy!

 

 

More than classical.Laughing

Not listening to it, at the bottom I put a comment that said the music started at 6:25, you failed to read or understand it, your loss. I don't have to compensate. Cool
