- In this video I react to a video made by Daniel Thrasher, Daniel does a lot of comedy skits based around the piano and in this one he highlights a common problem known to all musicians!

My secret to writing music is make it so bad that no one would ever copy it past or future XD.
That’s an excellent strategy 😂
Original: I'm so smart.
Covers: Hold on there buddy.
Hehe that is also my strategy... cause i have no idea what i am doing tbh xD
I’m afraid many artists today are onto your strategy, and it is working
Jazz?
My friend occasionally sends me songs he likes, and one time he sent me a song that nearly made me spit out my tea because it had 95% the exact same opening melody of a song I wrote, even down to the instruments.
Unfortunately for me, their song was made first.
at least in the US copyright allows for identical but independent creations, inventions, etc, to not infringe on each other. There are actually multiple examples of identical inventions that happened simultaneously by 2 different inventors. Nicolai Tesla invented multiple things simultaneously with other inventors for example.
Ew, bri'ish /s
And it was a song you didn't know?
@@QuikVidGuy It was not a song I knew.
I'm sure I wouldn't have almost spat out my drink if I've heard it before.
Edit: in fact, literally just today I was going through old files for a trip through memory lane, and I realized I had the work-in-progress mp3 file literally 7 days before the other song was uploaded.
You've coincidentally replied to me on the day I've realized I was first all along.
@@daenite2480 LETS GO SUE THEM!!!
Daniel thrasher is hilarious
He is! He has some classics! 😊
Yes
Indeed my man
Yip
/slowly turning insane
00:03:49 Love it when he starts saying "You'll end up with something that was done before", and you can almost hear the start of The Legend of Zelda Theme.
oh thank goodness i'm not the only one that heard that
I remember I was composing once and I ended up writing my own national anthem into my melody. Feels bad man
Nice blixir pfp
how does that even happen
@@sunshei. I was just putting chords together then I looked at the last three bars I did and it was part of the national anthem
@@emeraldnickel thats so odd!
A hilarious take on a surprisingly widespread problem. Great reaction video, and it's awesome you're almost at 8K already!
why no replies
You said the retitling was your favorite part and then cut out the new words for Hotel California. "Welcome to the L.A. bed and breakfast"
I really felt this one, because I accidentally managed to write the melody for the Plants vs. Zombies Final Boss when trying to make my own music.
I didn’t even know until my friend heard it, half-recognized it, and actively hunted it down within the next two minutes.
Was funny as shit how fast he found it though.
with how finite chords and durations i think it bounds to happen far sooner than latter.
this channel is a gem. Beautiful playing too!
Thank you! 😊
@@matticawood hello....I already mentioned you in another comment but I thought I should do it again so you don't miss the videos I mentioned in another comment 🙂🙂
Mate I think you'd love the Four Cord Song by The Axis of Awesome. Fantastic piece about how almost every pop hit uses the same four cords
There's a video up on TH-cam that adds 25 more songs to the repertoire, totaling 72. The entire song list is in the comments of that video. (Just search up 4 Chords - 72 Songs)
@@CrimsonDevil_Rias nice I’ll look it up right now
this is why video game music is so much more liberating, more genre[s] to play with and your odds of running into something someone has done is much lower.
he took out my favorite part. WELCOME TO THE L.A. BED AND BREAKFAST
Happens in classical music too. To some extent. You can hear snippets from Saint-Saens’ Carnival of the Animals in Danse Macabre. Even Mozart plagiarized his own music on occasion.
A composer plagiarising their own idea? Isn’t plagiarism the theft of an idea? If Mozart composed music A and made music B which sounds the same, isn’t that just repetition and not plagiarism?
I’m kinda confused on how this works ngl
instead of plagiarized more like uninspired
I mean liebesleid and liebestraum
Pull a toby fox and just say you're really good a leitmotifs
@@aceric1646 Heh. You turned *Liebeslied* ("love song") into *Leibesleid* ("belly suffering"). 😀
I wrote this really nice acoustic guitar riff that I planned to do something with, then I realized it could easily be considered a rip off of Wanted Dead or Alive by BonJovi. Mine involved more fingerpicking and isn’t exactly the same, and I could legally use it but when I realized I was in fact somehow influenced by that song (even though I don’t listen to) I lost my creative power in it. Stuff happens.
If you didn't listen to it then you weren't influenced by it.
(But how did you realize if you hadnt heard it?)
@@ipanesm Of course I’d heard the song many times before then, it was being played everywhere at the time. What I meant was that I wasn't a Bonjovi fan and didn't intentionally listen to them but I do think it's possible that guitar riff got into my head.
3:50 funniest thing is those are chords from the zelda theme
The worst part is when you play a song for a couple weeks, and then you change things up and then realize its something you know already 😂
3:44 funnily enough right there he plays the chords of the main theme of the legend of zelda
Matt is so cool and underrated but more on the cool side.
Thank you 😊
I've been following Daniel's channel for years and I finally see someone showing some recognition for his genius videos.
Bravo.
Would love if you reacted to the other ones! They have great jokes in all of them
There's a video on TH-cam of Deadmouse trying to come up with something new and he accidentally recreated sandstorm. The laughter that he has is hilarious when he realizes it
Beth Hart said in an interview, that was posted on TH-cam, that she was writing songs while listening to Taylor Swift and ended up writing Taylor Swift like songs so she had to dump it all and start over.
The intro to I Kissed A Girl has the same chord progression to one of the songs in my brother's high school band back in the day.
Loved the reaction! And yeah Daniel is hilarious here 😂
I'd love to see you react to the rest of the videos from this series of his!
The hard part about making music, is the originality
Thanks so much for posting this!
The whole series he did comes from one video when he was messing around and accidently wrote the theme for The Office.
Thanks for explaining how one identifies those music pieces, that was quite nice to common folk like me who know nothing about music :)
Relatable, once i composed a waltz in d major that i said that its copied 10% from Strauss II, but as it turns out, it was entirely based on Strauss, so yea i removed it
It’s easily done! I’ve never written anything where someone hasn’t told me it sounds like something else! 😂
@@matticawood Oh? Well i reccomend if someone accidently write songs that already exist, they can like make sme variations and then title it "[number] Variation[s] on a theme of [composer name ]
Daniel thrasher has a video about adding a jazzy part to every song.
The 'Let it Go' part made me laugh so hard! That's the only song I truly recoginized, other than 'Don't Stop Believing'.
I feel you should be way bigger in the react space than it seems you are and i hope you get the recognition you deserve .
Amazing video ever! Pretty interesting to see a pianist react to a Daniel Thrasher video!
I love that you put in that Ed Sheeran quote.
It's good to note as well that he said that in a video explaining how he was getting sued for supposedly plagerising another song with his "Shape of you" simply cause the chord progression in the chorus sounds similar.
I was messing around on the piano the other day (am a brand newbie) and I played this catchy 7-8 note tune, I kept repeating it then eventually wrote it down. I was so giddy that I had made up such a catchy cute tune until I flipped through an old piano book I had occasionally glanced at in the past and found that I had composed......the first notes of....Love me Tender by Elvis!!!😂 🤦🏻♀️
"Pretend for a sec" 🤣🤣🤣
Daniel is soo funny but with you soo enjoyable keep up the good one day you will hit a million
Him: You're just playing with chords....
Me: are those the opening chords for the legend of zelda theme?
Oh my gosh, the chords you randomly played around 3:50 immediately reminded me of If I Needed Someone by Nellie McKay!! 😂
My buddy came into my dorm room with his guitar excited. He had heard a song Ina dream which he then enthusiastically demonstrated. It was the theme to "the Heights" (talk to an angel) I watched the heartbreak in his eyes. lol
Greetings my friend Matthew!!....You are the right person to make this insane reaction video and give us your opinion about this insane singer...In 2017, the music world was shocked by the bursting onto the scene of a 22-year-old singer named Dimash Kudaibergen, who performed on the famous Chinese competition show for professional singers called “The Singer”... It was just it was necessary for this young man to make his first appearance, making a cover of one of the most difficult songs in the world, a famous French composition called "S.O.S. D'un Terrien En Détresse", to be considered from that moment on as the best singer in the entire planet....No one in the musical field had ever seen a human being, being able to reach vocal ranges above 7 octaves and several semitones, that is, all 88 keys of a digital piano, which reaches a little more than 7 octaves and as if that weren't enough, sing the more than 12 languages...Since then all kinds of experts (Vocal coachs, singers, musicians, analysts, singing teachers, youtubers, reactors, etc.) have dedicated themselves to reviewing their presentations to try to understand how someone can sing this way...The incredible thing is that that presentation in China was in 2017 but what Dimash has done in these 5 years is to further improve his wide vocal range, which is currently practically above of the 8 octaves... The Covid pandemic stopped his concerts worldwide, all with tickets sold in just seconds, via the internet, but at the same time it ended up catapulting him to the top of popularity worldwide...Anyway, since I think you are one of those reactors who have not yet met this impressive singer, here is the link of that presentation in China in 2017, with the song S.O.S. and I would like you to mention my name as the person who recommended him to you...You have to be prepared because your channel will explode with an avalanche of views, comments and new subscribers....I leave you one more recent video than the others, so it does not have the same number of views as the previous ones, which have millions of views, but it is a more complete video, with an intro, subtitles in several languages and with the improved quality of audio and sound....th-cam.com/video/bDX3FhmyNac/w-d-xo.html
Hello good sir. You are funny and entertaining. I sub. Another piano man added to my list. 👑
Agree with you on the jazz solos lol!!
Matt is such a legend!
I love that Daniel is doing a live tour.
You should react to all of his accidentally writing songs it’s great.
Big Agree on including jazz solos in everything.
I'm pretty sure its a combination skit bringing light to the fact that original music isn't as easy as people think it is as music has been around for centuries so people are bound to have something sound similar to something already created
It's a crime you didn't react to more of his series.
YOU MISSED THE "WELCOME TO THE L.A. BED AND BREAKFAST"!!!
oh man! hotel california - you cut the best part! 😂😂😂
You should react to part 2 of it
The last song is the funniest one. You completely know what it is as soon as he starts, just from the rhythm
Lovin the shirt, I have one exactly like that one
You should totally react to another of his vids "When you learn a riff and put it in everything"
Copy 1 person, and you're a thief.
Copy 10 people, and you're inspired.
Copy 100 people, and you're original.
matt is a legend
You deserve more subs bro
That little part at the end of let it go is at the end of every episode of Everbody loves Raymond.
I thought I came up with a rare incidental riff… it was Time Spent in Los Angelos
You should react to the rest of these videos
Anyways i think at least he wrote variation for those songs
Should include it in every song… lol has he seen the one where you finally learn a riff and put it everywhere? 😂😂
A little more than 20 years ago a few friends and I got together once or twice a week to play just for fun. One night we made up this song in which we threw in a pseudo-Celtic-style break. We recorded it just to have 'cuz we thought it was kind of cool. A week later the guitarist showed up with a CD by a jazz guitarist - damned if I can remember who it was - that a friend had pulled out when he played our tune for him. It had a song with a break in the middle that was identical to ours; same key, same chords, same melody, same tempo and even the same instrumentation, including a bodhran. Initially we were a little pissed off, but pretty quickly all we could do was laugh.
Do the rest of them
Ed Sheeran knows what's up, he had to pay royalties in a lot of the songs he wrote 🤣🤣🤣
Daniel and Matt are the bestest!
You cut your reaction to the best part! "Welcome to the LA Bed & Breakfast..."
I love the LA bed and breakfast. ^.^
Piano features in My music heavily, I love its sound however everything I do is purely bassed on feeling and random ideas as I have never bothered to learn how to play anyone else's music. To play someone else music this makes you a musician but not a composer and songwriter. I only play My own ideas.
I was so expecting a Rush E towards the end.
Hi i love your videos 😂 so much 😂❤
Thanks!! 😊
There was that four chords song by Axis of Awesome
@Matthew Cawood Can you react to part 6 of that series?
reacts videos are incredible.
They capitalize on other people's work, gloriously I might add.
Laziness and ineptitude, modern youtube ethos
Thank you for showing the sheet music for the songs, despite me not being able to read them. :/
And this is why Indian classical music never gets old lol (literally).
A reaction video to a Daniel Thrasher video.... this is wild.
Great video!
Have you reacted to "4 chord song" cause you should if you havent!
You skipped over the best joke, “Hotel California” became “Welcome to the LA Bed and bekfast”😂
LIVING IN A LONELY WORLD!
damn the piano man sounds nice
Frozen with a plant vs zombie in the end
3:26 That's a whole another video!
i can't imagine being able to play anything on the piano, let alone what he does
I was messing around with my guitar and I thought I created a new rift but I figured out that I just made a more dramatic version of the sweet child o mine rift
Jazz solos for everyone!
What! Dude u reacts to THIS!?!
I did 😊
Why is his comments section so calm
True
My comment section? 😊
Yes
It reminds me how Final Fantasy 15 Leviatan theme had full segment from Skyrim main theme. I literally could sing to it. This one felt really on purpose tho
look at this guy with two pianos
Yeah, I recently privated my song, as if you slow it down, it sounds eerily similar to, "hymn it the sea"
i mean... axis of awesome has the four cord song for a reason lol
For those who have seen the original video, welcome to the LA bed and breakfast
*insert RobP's rant about how everything is just Pachelbel's Canon in D*
I was sad when he skipped the “Welcome to the LA bed and breakfast”
Matt is such a legend! (Please dont kill my family)
That skit is a good parody of the mediocre copyright lawsuits in the music industry.
Please react more to him.
You skipped "welcome to the L.A. Bed and Breakfast" that's like the best punch line of the video.
