wow me and my class loved this so much!!!!!! this rap flowed so well, made my class cry tears of joy. thank you for being so awesome and cuteeeee. love you richey
Tom, as an aspiring history teacher (recently licensed and looking for a job), I hope I can become half as awesome as you. Hahaha. Keep up the good work.
This is so great i enjoyed it so much its even more funny that this was actually a really good rap apart from the fact that it has most of the important facts about Metternich.
Hey tom nice video, could you make a video giving advice to anyone who's wanting to go into a history teaching career? Thanks keep up the great videos -Cameron
i'd like to see general info on what you need for a career of that type, maybe some tips for entering the profession. This question is coming from a sophomore currently in Ap euro
Beat= raw Flow= alright Cadence= oddly satisfying Rhyme scheme= basic (but not bad) Voice= awkward So this is pretty good considering you're not Eminem lol...
That's not how you pronounce his name, but it's a neat summary of what he did... (the CH is pronounced closely to a combination of h (like in any word starting with an h) and y (like in every word starting with a y) so like "Metternihy" at least thats how I explain the sound to my non-german-speaking friends, but for the love of god it's not a k, and the t is a t don't turn it into a d like american thing cuz it is very strictly a t even if that takes away the flowiness of it, and as to his first name Klemens the first e is more like an a when you sing the alphabet song. Thanks for coming to my TED talk XD
Any particular reason for that? I've been doing mostly audio only with my raps lately because it's more efficient but hearing that some of my audience prefers this is interesting.
Tom Richey My apologies, i believe that many of us where saying this in jest, as this isn't the best example of a "rap." The lyrics are great for the history you're trying to educate us about, and as far as visuals go songs are easier to memorize, so why bother putting in charts of visual aids if people won't bother to use them?
The elegant, crippled Talleyrand (known as "The lame devil", and "Sphinx in a powdered wig" -- though this was a slander; he had a handsome head of powdered blond hair) was actually smarter and cooler, and more influential than Metternich over a lifetime. And a better diplomat: he kept nearly all his old mistresses as cherished friends, into old age. Charm and Charisma? The ex-bishop of Autun was reported to have "committed every sin except that of bad taste." Talleyrand's last mistress was Dorothea, Duchess of Dino, Dorothea was the brilliant bluestocking daughter of his former mistress, a Prussian Duchess. Talleyrand arranged her marriage (sight unseen) at age 16 to his disappointing nephew because she was rich and suitably aristocratic. After she gave his family 3 children in 3 years, she had become a strong-minded sophisticated beauty who dumped her ghastly husband. Talleyrand, to his credit, fell in love with her mind first, and trusted her sound political judgement when he appointed her hostess of the French Embassy he headed at the Congress of Vienna. She was 39 years younger than Talleyrand when at age 22, and despite knowing he was a notorious libertine, she threw herself into the arms of her fascinating and still-attractive 62-year old uncle. They were a political power-couple and soul mates; and adored each other until he died aged 84.

That would be an interesting video, for sure! What sort of advice are you looking for, in particular?
i'd like to see general info on what you need for a career of that type, maybe some tips for entering the profession. This question is coming from a sophomore currently in Ap euro
Love it!
How do we download this? When does the mixtape drop on Itunes?? Mrs. Rogers' AP Euro class at Mount Dora High loves you Mr. Richey!
shout out to mrs hamerlys class and your a really good internet teacher
Beat= raw
Flow= alright
Cadence= oddly satisfying
Rhyme scheme= basic (but not bad)

+TamingofSpyro absolutely!
You know you didn’t study enough when you only understand half of the references and its been four hours

That's not how you pronounce his name, but it's a neat summary of what he did...

Thanks for coming to my TED talk XD
0:15 Kaitlyn is _quaking_
this is fye
Fire
What's that when you say at the beginning "Katelyn I know you're listening"? Was this Katelyn Metternich's wife or something?
good
Woah! You so cool man
play the video at 1.25 speed and it's AWESOME
I'm glad this is just audio
Any particular reason for that? I've been doing mostly audio only with my raps lately because it's more efficient but hearing that some of my audience prefers this is interesting.
Tom Richey My apologies, i believe that many of us where saying this in jest, as this isn't the best example of a "rap." The lyrics are great for the history you're trying to educate us about, and as far as visuals go songs are easier to memorize, so why bother putting in charts of visual aids if people won't bother to use them?
I am even more confused now as a result of reading your follow up comment.
What's the reference to warm water?
Give him five mics
Did you make the background music? If so it's really awesome. I love the lyrics to this song!

Sounds like von Metternich is my kind of guy!
The elegant, crippled Talleyrand (known as "The lame devil", and "Sphinx in a powdered wig" -- though this was a slander; he had a handsome head of powdered blond hair) was actually smarter and cooler, and more influential than Metternich over a lifetime.
And a better diplomat: he kept nearly all his old mistresses as cherished friends, into old age. Charm and Charisma? The ex-bishop of Autun was reported to have "committed every sin except that of bad taste." Talleyrand's last mistress was Dorothea, Duchess of Dino,

They were a political power-couple and soul mates; and adored each other until he died aged 84.
how the FUCK is this so catchy
🔥🔥🔥
You should do a song with DJ khaled
After the unfortunate results of nationalism in recent centuries, this video has definitely made me more sympathetic to Metternich.
yurr
why does this actually slap tho?
Good rap,😎
Yeah *bobs head to beat*
I gotta make a diss track to METTERNICH
