Canon in C Canon in Commercial Canon in D Canon in Depression ーEddy Chen, 2019 I started to see a pattern here.

Kid: *pauses* Asian Dad: So you have chosen death.

I feel like Canon in D is the comic sans of classical music

4:35 I speak Thai and I understood what this child was saying without subtitles. I was drinking water and I hear “I hate piano” in Thai from a child. Needless to say I almost choked. As a Thai Pianist, too

“If you want to make your daughter cry at her wedding, learn an instrument.” Well, I’m something of a marching tuba player myself...

"Canon in D is the most overplayed piece" *Ode to Joy:* "Am I a joke to you?"

"If you abused your kid and now he doesn't wanna live with you anymore, buy a house for him!" The best answer

When I was 5, my father took me all the way up a 14,000 ft. mountain. The way he did it was he would hike up ahead of me and put an oatmeal cookie on a rock just far enough for me to still see it. I'd hike up to a cookie and then he'd smile, hike up a way and put another cookie on a rock. I climbed that mountain one cookie at a time. Kids need little milestones with cookies and smiles.

4:50 I opened the auto-subtitle... Brett: I hate violin Subtitle: I hate viola Me: Of CouRsE!

“If you want to make your daughter cry at her wedding, learn an instrument.” Me in 2050: *sobbing on the stage, backing track plays, patiently waiting to ding my triangle* I LOVE YOU BABY GIRL.

dude I legit cried when I saw the I hate piano kid cry while looking at his dad in the audience, it genuinely broke my heart 😭😭

When I saw the dad abusing his kid, I felt like I needed to buy a house

"- Your father can play the piano ? - No" He learnt with simply piano guys

Piano guy: plays for 1 second Eddy: “ThATs iN c MaJOr”

My parents chose violin as my sister's instrument. She was so bad at it, they let her quit! 🤣🤣😹

4:36 As a Thai person, If I see these kind of commercials i can already tell that this will either be a life insurance company,a car company for some reason or a real estate company. And you guys were right, it doesn’t make any sense at all.

Dudes canon in D is literally my school bell. we have to hear it eleven times a day. pray for me.

"If you want your daughter to cry at her wedding, learn an instrument." *Me, pulling out my rubber chicken* It's show time.

man, the 'i hate piano' one really hits me hard, although in my case is math and physics. Attending classes constantly from 7 a.m to 9 p.m for almost 7 days per week had became normal schedule for me during middle school. My meal usually was rice balls and bento. I guess thanks to that I was be able to choose what I want to do with my future right after I finish middle school. And now I'm studying graphic design : )))

the last ad about houses, my theory: it's a house commercial because the kid needs to move out and get his own house to do what he loves

After rewatching this I just realized: D = Disappointed A = Asian D = Dad(s)

Für Elise: “I’m the most overplayed piece” Canon in D: “am I a joke to you?”

5:21 "do kids think that?" well for my experience, I sorta do hate playing my piano sometimes. My parents would pressure me and punish me when I want to take a break from the piano. No clue why, but yes I have developed a hate for my piano sometimes, I still do piano lessons because I have to. But one reason that fades away my hate for piano is twosetviolin, I love watching their videos and their videos make me laugh.

8:41 disappointment in D

My daughter: [is getting married] Me: [brings out the cowbell] It's time

parent: lets practice kid: I wanna go to the park! parent: fine lets practice at the park

Eddy: “What's the ad about” *yt ad plays* Me: So apparently, it's about shampoo.

When Brett and Eddy will get married, they will play Canon in G# minor to throw everyone off!

“If you want to make your daughter cry at her wedding, learn an instrument.” *Learns Viola* Daughter: *violent sobbing*

Brett: “We want more commerciaaaals” KZfaq: Double ads

I started crying because I can feel the little boy's pain. I don't like piano. My mom forced me to play it, so I play randomness from my brain, and then I get hit by a stick.

When he picked up his violin and said "I hate violin" then started playing I had a moment of just pure terror cause I knew I'd start wheezing and it's midnight and I don't wanna wake my parents-

canon in d is so overplayed *plays canon in c*

"He doesn't hear the applause... It's meaningless." Holy crap, I felt that.

9:40 Below the logo, it says: "Choose the best... for the future of your child."

My friend on zoom: "Lets listen to classical music!" Me when she pulls out Canon in D: "NONONONONO SOMETHING ELSE PLEASE"

Eddy’s kid: getting married Eddy: _Pulls out chicken_

Do you remember hearing Canon in D for the first time as a kid and falling in love with it but then as years go by, you eventually get sick and tired of it and now you can’t bear to listen to it anymore? Yeah because same

When the kid started to cry I was just like “yup those are my parents they would be disappointed and get mad.... ugh I just love life” and this is true my parents are very strict and I suffer with several mental illnesses but in general parents should love there kids not be rude or disrespectful to them “Every kid deserves a parent but not all parents deserves a child”

"you see that look on dad's face?" *the dad's face is perfectly aligned with brett's* i see what you did there

I am deeply offended by the way i am portrayed

daughter: [is getting married] me: the piano: the audience: me: i hate piano [plays canon in d]

7:56 the dads head perfectly lines up to bretts shirt 🔺

2:23 oh gosh that once happened to me. I was being accompanied for a school concerto and the pianist was accelerando through all the piece and I couldn’t keep up and I stopped. I STOPPED.

#disappointedasiandad my guess is: if your asian kid can't play piano and embarrasses you in front of crowd -- go and buy a new house far away from that place!

New commercial: "I hate cello." [Plays Canon in C]

me at five having just started piano: I hate this me now, several years of practicing piano for 40 hours a day: I LOVE PIANO ITS AMAZING LET ME BRAG ABOUT HOW GREAT I AM AT PIANO

Brett: “maybe it’s something like, child abuse” Also Brett: *proceeds to laugh*

And yes, that's how Thai commercials are, they really grip you and what they're advertising isn't even in the slightest relevant to the content of the commercial lol

My sister wants canon in d to be played at her wedding (ha, what a surprise, right?) and asked me to play it - I agreed since there's nothing that difficult in the piece. Later that day she came up to me and told me she ordered REAL musicians for this piece so that I wouldn't spend SOOO much time practicing this very difficult piece. Never got roasted this hard. EDIT: Thanks for the support, you guys! I didn't expect likes, haha. Well, the good news is that I'm at least going to play "Can You Feel The Love Tonight. " Please pray for me, I don't want THAT to change as well, cause I practiced 40 hours a day (practicing while typing!).

I used to hate piano as well because my dad made me play at church all the time, but I had to have my music approved by non-musicians & I have social anxiety so I would shake really bad & it was so horribly embarrassing so I quit for about 3 years in early highschool. Kind of sad I had to, but I didn’t feel like there was any other way to make it stop. I have since picked it back up again & you two have helped a lot with rekindling the love I once had for my music & playing. Thanks, guys.🥰🎶

6:02 the kid was like I wanna go out w my friends so the parents compromised and now they're study outside

‘Canon in D is the most overused piece’ Canon in C: *am I a joke to you*

"my dad is abusive because he loves me" cool motive, still abuse

brett pog face at 3:31

This video and the comments that accompany it have been really eye-opening to me. Growing up, I had an extremely narcissistic grandfather who paid for me to have piano lessons and would brag to everyone that his granddaughter was a little prodigy. My mom wanted to please him so that he would continue financing the lessons, so she pressured me to practice pieces I hated and perform in front of others. The result was that I developed crippling performance anxiety, gradually grew to despise the instrument (as well as my grandfather, who I unfortunately still have to deal with to this day), and, once I was old enough to decide for myself, quit taking lessons and basically walked away from the piano altogether. My mom and I are fine, since she has admitted that her actions were misguided and apologized for pushing me so hard, but I've scarcely touched my keyboard in the last 9 years. For the longest time, I thought I was alone in this...it seemed like all the other musicians I knew had healthy relationships with their instruments and couldn't imagine giving them up. But now that I know so many others here have gone through the same thing (often to an even worse degree), I feel that maybe it's time to confront the anger and bitterness I have simmering inside and begin to mend my relationship with my instrument. After all, I still adore the piano, and it breaks my heart that I don't enjoy playing it like I used to. But reading about your experiences gives me hope for redemption. So thanks, guys! I hope that in spite of it all, you still find joy in playing music. :)

canon in c/d is the comic sans of classical music

Twoset: making fun of canon in d Me: laughing with them Also me: crying inside because I secretly love canon in d

4:30 Canon in Dad?

Watching this I'm so glad me and my siblings chose our own instruments instead of having something chosen for us that we didn't want

The second commercial says "The best... is being able to be a child that is Good Enough, and to have a dad that is that is happy with Having Enough. And the last part says Mantana Choose the best...for the future of your child.

“If you want to make your daughter cry at her wedding, learn an instrument” The only tears I’ll make my daughter cry are tears of embarrassment.

My brain at 5:36: 1 3 double oh, 6 triple 5, oh 6

5:09 I am from Thailand so I know how ads in Thailand ads started like, you hate something you are doing it

Brett: "Child Abuse" Brett: *Laughs*

"I hate the piano, I hate what my dad chose for me" I have the opposite problem, I loved piano for as long as I remember, but parents hate music. So now, at 19 I'm learning piano on my own. Never too late guys!

The last one reminded me of Your Lie in April for some reason 😔

4:24, hate what my dad chose for me, unless I choose it

3:15 yeah it’s indeed hard to play if YOUR SHEET MUSIC IS EMPTY

When he stopped I thought she would go play with him. *A little disappointed not gonna lie.*

Homeless person: *is homeless* Karens: 10:24

dude....... i cried when the little boy was being pressured by his dad to play piano IT WAS TOO PRESSURING SO RELATABLE TOO GAHHHH THE DEATH GLARE

Last time I was this early, Canon in D was just composed

"I hate math" *integrals in C*

"If you want to make your daughter cry at her wedding, learn an instrument" Me: **whips out otamatone**

Oml the "I hate piano" has never hit so hard. I literally just had a piano recital yesterday and I messed up on 2 parts and I had to skip ahead cuz I'm not gonna stop in the middle of the recital, but there was a pause and omg it was so humiliating I was actually shaking. And that face on the dad's face is exactly what my mom looked like. What's worse is after I went she texted me a whole essay on what I did wrong and I just starting sobbing in the back row, it truly is such a depressing way to learn piano. Parents are supposed to support you and encourage you to love your instrument, but doing stuff like that only makes you hate it more.

I really dislike how that commercial portrays emotional abuse as normal (just 《strict parenting》).

Has anyone gone to a lesson and sweated profusely during it because you know you haven't practiced enough? Cause I certainly have. Multiple times 😂😂😂

When my grand son did his first recital and made a mistake he turned to the audience and sad” whoops I made a mistake “ everyone laughed.

Oh ,the 2nd is a Thai commercial : it said “the best is being a good enough child and a balanced enough dad” “choose the best for your child” “choose Land and House”, may be its about the balance of life

The real reason they made it Canon in C because she’s cRyInG C for crying

What if I copyright the Canon in C *CANON IN B INTENSIFISED*

Apologies if someone has already commented about this...”tosan” means father in Japanese so the commercial for “Tosando Music” sounds like a pun to me - very clever! When the daughter says “you can do it!” to her father and then the brand name showed up I was laughing. Also, at 3:18 when Eddy asks “what was that about?” It showed a picture of the mother on the piano. That’s most likely a memorial picture that is kept after a funeral so they are showing that the mother passed away.

This is both Pachelbel's best masterpiece and worst tragedy

"I can't hear you anyway", thanks Brett for reminding me I'm deaf, it kinda makes me sad, so please I've gone through so much trouble coming back from the death, could you be a little nicer, just once, maybe?

my music teacher used your video of playing Canon with the chicken and everyone's just like "what the f-"

When i was 9 my mum told me i would be learning the flute, and i just said “Oo? Yay!” Like i wanted to but i actually didnt know what the flute was so i really didnt want to, i wanted to play the piano or violin. So when my first lesson had started i was dredding going to meet my music teacher. But she was really nice to we instantly became friends! Now im really shy so it was really weird for me to not be uncomfortable around her, after a bit I started to LOVE LOVE the flute! And I would take all my time and energy you practicing the flute ! This year we’re gonna be learning SKIP TO MY LOU! And playing it with 2 other people in a concert! Pray for me because I’ve only played it for less that 2 years! This year I’m turning 11- March 12th haha

music teachers being the ones to set school bell for morning assembly are awesome! edelweiss in primary school and vivaldi's summer in secondary school >

The abuse one got me and I've never even had that experience. I should buy a house to feel better.

"How did he learnd piano" *Simple piano entering the chat*

They questioned who’s parents’ makes them study in front of their friends... My first grade teacher made me do schoolwork while I watched the rest of the class play games. I was miserable. This stuff does happen unfortunately.

5:45 Beethoven’s hair is saying “don’t give up”

The second commericial was pure gold, Kousei Arima with his parents Parents: "Look at those kids. If you don't do what we told you, you'll end up like them: happy"

That one dad acts like his child is his investment lol. "I made this thing hence I have full right on choosing his life choices."

I was starting to hate playing the violin, but this channel has reinvigorated me.

It’s so hard to force kids to learn something, you’ll just end up making them hate it later on. This is doubly true with music imo, music should be something that brings light to your life, something that you chase rather than follow.

"I hate what my dad chose for me" - Dad chooses Canon in C 😂😂😂

Canon in D is probably the easiest piece for a wedding procession. I have to play it every week during wedding season. Imagine the boredom.

I'm may not be asian, but I'm hispanic and I can sure as hell relate that little boy. Thanks parental units for all the trauma.❤️

I cried after the kid said “I hate piano”. My parents always ask me to do everything by forcing me that I really don’t like. They just said *“ your friends can , u also can”* that’s not something encouraging me and they always like to compare me with other people .
