The Real thing
The real thing
Back in 92 I was in highschool walking home, I heard someone playing the video on their TV full blast with the front door open, I ran up into their door away and was jamming. A kid walked out of the kitchen and asked me "you want soda bro" best friends ever since.
Yoo this Story is amazing
That’s so epic dude. The 90s were a different time😞
Sounds untrue but I'm choosing believe this 😌
Awesome story
@@schotzfired 'Epic' story
This track was way ahead of its time.
Thanks to me
When I heard this song on MTV when I was a kid it was the coolest thing I had ever heard.
Its still far ahead of todays music !!!
This song gave birth to the 90s
And hacks like Korn and LB make alot of money thanks to this guys
My lovely friend passed away at the end of November. She picked this song as her farewell song. I’ll always think of her when I hear it now. What a legend she was picking this. She said rock music always needs to be played extra loud. X
Your friend deserves to be remembered.
Yikes
🙌 you're friend sounds like they were awesome
Your friend ruled! And for a woman especially. I used to play this at parties in the 1990s and most women walked out in a fit.
@@bigneiltoo Rules the graveyard now
Back in 1990 this video ruled. Best of the year.
I love this song plus the music video.
first heard this in Saints Row The Third
@@superpenguinzzznobody asked you werido
May b🤪
Yeah
Im 168 years old, and I still blast this from the bluetooth speakers in my iron lung.
lol
I'll be right over as soon as I get my walker fixed!👩🦯
Brandon my fucking man!!! We are all 168!!!!
If it's too loud, you're too old!
@Plaffed Plaf Still getting the vibes though
I'm 80 and blasting this in the retirement village. Volume all the way up to 11. 🎤🎸🎶🤘
That's because you Rock!!!!🍺🤘🏻
Good for you old timer... Without aging hippies rock woul b dead
I love you!
And can barely hear it. ;)
80?!
I know no one is probably gonna see this. When I was younger my brother used to play this song. I ended up having some medical issues and went through a tough surgery as a kid. Apparently after the surgery while still drugged out and freshly stitched I sang this song. Scared the crap out of my parents but this song really means a lot to me
seen it, verified, vindicated. go you good thing! Happy days!
I just seen this..Hope you are doing well.
Stay strong !
2024 please bring me back to senior year of high school 1992, when I first heard this song, my life was at its best!! ❤
Hopefully "at its best" compared to only what had come before?
MTV did not dare go more than 15 minutes without playing this.
remember mtv this
Aww the times when mtv played music not shit :,,) (i didnt live in those times tho but all of my mom’s stories about her youth have mtv playing in the background)
So true....I was 17 in 1989....I liked it but got tired of hearing it. Seemed like they played this, Guns n Roses, Anthrax, and Metallica's "One". Which is funny because Metallica at the time had only one music video. Music was segregated. There was Yo MTV raps, headbangers ball, whatever Allen Hunter liked and I remember for a brief time Dwezil Zappa as a VJ and he played a crazy mismatch of wtf he wanted. Remember Randy of the Redwoods? Now you are a true middle aged MTV used to watcher.
Ah back in the day when MTV meant music TV that actually played music... I remember it well.
@@lordshadow3822 it should be "R"TV now for "Reality" Television
I can't think of anything that captures the vibe of the transition from the late '80s into the early '90s more than this video
Ugly Kid Joe - Everything About You
Jesus Jones - Right here Right Now
A couple off the top of my head that capture the 80's-90's transition.
^^ THIS!!!!!!! Upon hearing 'The Real Thing', I tossed my Poison/Warrant/Cinderella/OtherGlamBands albums and exclaimed: "READY FOR THE '90s!!!!!"
The Stone Roses - I Wanna Be Adored
Nine inch nails - pretty hate machine

And down in it
This song came out when my son was learning to walk. I remember crawling all around the house so I could be at his eye level to move things out of the way so he wouldn't get hurt or break things. I sang this to him all the time. What a great song from a great band. What great memories. thank you....
thats adorable 🥰
That is a absolutely awesome memory........
My wife and I were downtown Saginaw, Michigan when this song came on the radio. We both reached for the volume nob. It gets cranked to 10, with pioneer stereo and asskickin speakers. I look over, and my wife is head banging in time with mine. I look passed her to see the soccer mom keeping time with us in the next car over. My wife does the same thing and sees a guy in the truck next to me also keeping time with us. Then they notice we are keeping time with them. The guy throws a two fingered rocker sign, and the soccer mom throws us a piece sign as the light turns green and we go our separate ways. Synchronicity.
There's a reason it's called Epic.
Best comment ever. #Michigangirl
@@ksilver365 Michigan ROCKS! 😎
One of life's beautiful moments
The world aligned
I'm not sure how many people understand how amazing Mike Patton's vocals are. He sounds like like about 50 different musical artists. That's how diverse and wonderful his singing is!
Yeah bro, even Nina Hagen comes up ... super cool dude!!!!
He's a vocal genius
"Adult Themes for Voice"LP
proves that in spectacular way.😎
He is awesome in Mister Bungle.
Which really means, he's not unique at all. I always thought he was grossly overrated as an artist, and he's also an egomaniacal gobshite.
Remember when MTV played music all day and was cool? Takes me back to those simple times.
Yes, me too! Now the good music has been replaced by a bunch of stupid shows, fake "reality".
@@ricsim78 yeah, thank god for youtube I mostly watch music videos. 😎
Then rap videoes came along and ruined Music forever
@@tinmanden so true
With Camilla Raznovich 🥰
This song created a whole new era of music.
And marked the passing of an old
I'm still watching this video in 2024, brings back so many memories
me too~
Still hits on point
'It' is success he had to give me the job at 4ad how are you going to make it up to me?
Turning Point isn't a success it's a dive
You and me both my friend ❤
I cannot remember what happened last week.
But after 24 years of not seeing this video, I still know ALL THE LYRICS PERFECTLY.
@AngieDoctor damn bruh, you hyper intelligent or something?
same here
I watched this video hundreds of times between age 8-12 but WHAT DOES HE SAY before he says "What is it??"
Oh yeah!
ME TOO!!
I am still listening to this epic song today, and I am 70
Rock on sir!
Hell yeah!!
Good Luck, Paul, me also !! Greetings from Nürnberg :) I am 58
What about Ugly Kid Joe
We are going to be some Epic old people 😂😂
To those still here in 2024:
Rock on! 🫶🤘
...i will...🖤
🤟🏻
🤘🤘🤘
I'm sitting in the lounge area. My arse melting into the faux leather...
64 fuck yeah.
It's rare that a song grabs you from the very first note and completely holds your attention the entire time. Not only did this song do that thirty plus years ago, it still does it to me today. Astonishing music...
I hope you know that all their stuff is really good. They experiment a lot and, to me, its all amazing. Too bad I wasted so much time thinking that 'Epic' was their only good song. 😑
@@monstro3874 oh I didn't just listen to FNM. I loved Mr Bungle too, Mike is just on another level when it comes to singers of that era, or any era for that matter. I loved the Chili Peppers EXCEPT for Kiedes and his obvious inferiority complex when it came to seeing someone do what he thought was HIS style just much better. He can't sing for shit, whereas Mike is on the level of an opera singer he has so much control. So Anthony got butthurt and wouldn't do shows with them, etc and FNM got their potential massive fame cut short. Kind of a shame for many who barely got to hear them much, but those of us who did know who the real badass was. Truly legendary band...
I feel so old, you saying this ...xxx
Mike had to have been talking to the musicians with his vocals.
Agree to disagree.
Is it so bad that I am 61, with 7 grandkids, and the door to my office is shut with this playing full tilt.
I'm 127 and I listen to all the new stuff.
well I'm 23 and always turn this song (or anything Mike patton) up full bull!
Debbie Byrd I'm 63 with 7 grandkids and I still love this music!
I'm 37..no kids..doing laundry in the complex I live in bangin my muthafuckin head....👊👊👊👊
Debbie Byrd not bad at all, this is all we got, so is it ever too late? I'm 35
32 years later, and this song is still EPIC!
🤘🤘🤘
It is. That guitar what really makes it
This song is 32 years old?
My back hurts. Get off my lawn!
You betcha !
I wish it was summer of ‘90 again 😢
I will be 38 May 23rd this year and…… THIS IS STILL MY FAVORITE SONG
This is the best song for the transition from the 80's to the 90's.
Great track
Head Like A Hole By NIN is a good transition also
Fun fact: a guy went to live with his grandmother after attempting suicide. He was lying on the couch, wondering where his life would take him, then this song came on. I think it was their live mtv performance. It inspired this guy so much that he went on to become the lead singer of a band you may have heard of. It was Corey Taylor from Slipknot
No cap?
@@aguila1077 I don’t speak tik tok. But yea, Corey said it himself in an interview.

Pretty damn cool if you ask me.
Edit
*Added funk bassist.*
The cool things you learn from others online. I had to give credit where it's due both to the forum and the performer.
For a while, that was Ozzy's Drummer
Imagine seeing that in dreams.
You forgot "Funky bassist"
Would sound like shit in most cases but Faith No More pulls it off in the most perfect manner
mike shinoda can more
This video is so 90s it slapped a No Fear bumpersticker on my soul...
No evidence of a soul whatsoever
Mr bungle, faith no more, tomahawk, and countless others. Mike truly is the best singer
Dont forget Maldoror
30 years later, and I still don't know what it is
Isn't It the clown that terrorizes Derry, Maine every 27 years?
Grandpa simpson: I was with it once! And then they changed what it was! And now what I'm with isn't it and what's it seems weird and scary to me! And it'll happen to you!
It is it
It makes no difference cuz it knocks you off your feet!
If you can’t then it doesn’t matter anyway
This is one of those songs that INSTANTLY evokes memories of MTV and Beavis & Butthead for me.
lol, that's what brought me here. Was just watching beavis and butthead and the "epic" episode played. Wanted to see the vid and hear the song without them talking over it. lol.
They showed cooler videos on B&B than on regular MTV. Hell, they even played Ween on B&B.
For me too.
I remember Beavis & Butthead singing "diarrea tchatchatcha"!!!
The SNL performance for me
The piano part always gives me chills...love this song ❣️
I think PETA objected to the tha video due two the flopping fish at the end,, I guess they gave never sold any coconut crusted snapper for $28.99 , as a special,, 86 blueberry cheesecake,,,, HEARD LOL
No song lives up to its name like this.
When this song came out, it blew everyone away. All the elements of modern music: rock guitar, rap, new wave keyboards, and pounding rhythm section, all combined to create such musical tension. It was so ground-breaking at the time. Thank you Faith No More for taking chances and pushing boundaries.
Best band ever
Definitely.
ÉPICO 🎊
If you hadn't heard Run-DMC or Beastie Boys before, maybe.
@@amityislandchum Or Public Enemy.
Faith no More was WAY ahead of their time in music!!!
So were Living Colour!!!
that's definitely true.
Dude, they were just a Chili Peppers clone. Anthony Kiedis was very critical of their success, given that Mike Patton ripped off Kiedis style so much during these years. Mike Patton always talks about "being original" but the only thing he's ever really done is akin to sampling old music people don't care about or have forgotten about and stamping it out as "new".
Juan Cortez Yes and no. They were able to work a metal guitarist into a new wave sound, which is impressive, but the hard funkiness was already done by the Chili Peppers at this point, and even Funkadelic before that.
Not sure about the rest of their catalogue, but this (as good as it is) is a shameless Chili Peppers rip off, from the funk backing, to the white-boy rapping style, to the clothes, to the hand movements, and even to the "quirky" faces he's making
47 years old and still blasting this song.
Ok Xennial
I’m 49 🤘🏼
Same, we were the perfect age to get completely brain-blasted by this entering our teens in ‘89. …the wild & crazy future we thought lay ahead. It was fun while it lasted.
I wasn't crazy about this song when it came out - it was ridiculously overplayed at the time - but I've come around to see why it was such a huge hit. It was groundbreaking.
I thought this song came out in like 91 or 92, around the same time as the RHCP's Blood Sugar Sex Magick, but it was released two years before in 1989...amazing. It ended up being inspiration for a lot of early 90s acts.
The structure of the song is also amazing. It's totally unlike most pop or rock songs (verse-chorus-verse-chorus-bridge-chorus). Look at the lyrics structure
This song has almost default structure. Verse-chorus-verse-chorus-verse-chorus-bridge-guitar solo-bridge-chorus-outro
For me personally one of the most non-standard lyrics structure songs is Severed by Mudvayne
This song is about violating a girl he stalked at a party, in the previous song. This is a dark album.
It is scientifically impossible for this song to get old.
25 years from now, no one will be listening except you through your hearing aids. Meanwhile, people will still be hearing Freebird and Stairway to Heaven or Baba O Reilly in their Teslas on autopilot.
This song rocks!
Agree dude! It is just impossible!
6 octaves, kudos!
@@alexnutcasio936 Everybody has their personal biases and we all get butt-hurt when others don't agree with us. Unfortunately time is a bitch and I can gurantee that 50 years ago somebody was saying Elvis music will never die and 50 years from now somebody else will say the same thing. As great as your choices are (and I like Epic btw), they will very slowly be forgotten with every new generation that pops on the scene.
Certainly one of the BEST songs to come from the 90’s. I never get tired of this song!!
NOT 90S
What a classic !! Rocking to this with my 8 year old son! Great band Daddy 😂 love from South Africa 🇿🇦
This song is more 90s than the 90s.
@Chuck Buskee 1990
Came out in the 80s too.
Except it's from 89...
@@jeremyr4812 thats just a fucking nitpick.
@@jeremyr4812 it actually came out in 1990
This song sounded so good through my foam covered headphones...plugged into a not-sony walkman as I skated to school and around town....then it sounded even better in my first car, with that dual exhaust V8 rumble underneath it...And then it sounded even better when my mom heard it and liked it....Now, in my twilight years, it sounds even better, because it brought back all those moments.
I love how certain songs travel with us through life. Like our own personal soundtrack.
But why are you just showing off in the comments like that tho?! 😎😎😎😎
Soooo glad to have known the 80's 🔥
#bestcommentever
Lmao ok bro cool story
"twilight years" dude????!!!!?!??? I bet u got a lot of livin to do yet!!!!!!
Dude, you are only as old as the person you are feeling, and if you are not feeling anyone, you are like this song, timeless.
1992 Heard this track on MTV went to the local LP store an bought the CD. Afterwards we went to the local skatepark and skated the whole day while listening to the album ❤
God I hadn't heard this song since I was teenager around 30 years ago .
What an epic awesome song indeed 😊😊😊❤❤
I love this song, it's like hair metal, rap, rock, classical, 80/90s fused all into one.
This singular song bridged multiple forms of pop-rock. The 80s turned into the 90s in the 4+ minutes this song elapses.
FUCK hair metal.
Its just metal not hair metal.
Sound like early red hot chilie peppers PLUS metal
This is called California Funk Rock or commonly called Funk Metal.
That piano solo at the end will never get old.
Two of the most iconic visions of the early 90’s in one video…
The flopping fish 🐟…
And the exploding piano 🎹….
“You want it all,
But you cant have it..”
Yes!!!!
After decades of bad fish out of water dying nightmares, I agree.
It is a thing of beauty, isn't it?
It kind of gives me Jethro Tull vibes, as in the opening piano for "locomotive breath," for some reason.
Right after he stepped away from the piano, it exploded.
My three year old loves this song . He walks around the house screaming “ Alexa !…..play EPIC !…by faith no moy.” And he says Moy cause his father in law is from Louisiana and he inherited that Louisiana Swang . He says “ Daddy are you getting ready to go to woyk?” And he hums the guitar bridge during this song . And he’s the coolest fuckin kid in the world .
Let me be the first to ask. Your three year old has a father in law?
@@chamberofskulls few of em
Oh hell yeah, I'm from Louisiana too. Due to the internet and watching so many people with so many different accents I don't really have *my* accent any more lol
I hope you nurture his musicianship! Sounds like a fun little guy!
@@treehann he’s 3 and he has a guitar and keyboard . He bangs his hands on the keyboard and sings “what . Is .it!? It’s it !” There’s no way he won’t be playing instruments as me and pretty much my entire family play instruments
I still remember the first time I saw this video. I was up late watching TV when this comes blasting out of the set. It was so loud and weird, it just grabbed me by the brain. Went out and bought the album that week
This was the most important thing in the universe when I was a teen.
Sung this every damn day in Math class haha
Mmmmmmm!! X🙏🙏😋😅😅👌
The Real Thing
I remember this video blowing up on mtv. I was either 12 or 13 when I first saw this video in 1990
Same. I saw FNM live in 1990 my 1st concert ever with Billy Idol at The Forum in LA. I was 14 years old. Will never forget this band because of it.
I'll be 61 this year and I still bang my head to this song. A masterpiece.

Immortal song!!!

Loved this song growing up in the 90's and here it is 2024 and still love the beat and the song, not to mention the box gloves he had on were very awesome
One of the greatest pieces of musical art of all time!
Nothing about this song feels old, in fact it feels fresh. That's remarkable.
i first heard this on the radio in the 90s and couldn't believe it was 89...it felt more new cuz of the rap part
Us kids say it slaps these days.
true that brother true that
That's the true glory of good music. It never dies.
Are you a time traveler?
Epic - Faith No More
Can you feel it, see it, hear it today?
If you can't, then it doesn't matter anyway
You will never understand it cuz it happens too fast
And it feels so good, it's like walking on glass
It's so cool, it's so hip, it's alright
It's so groovy, it's outta sight
You can touch it, smell it, taste it so sweet
But it makes no difference cuz it knocks you off your feet
You want it all but you can't have it
It's cryin', bleedin', lying on the floor
So you lay down on it and you do it some more
You've got to share it, so you dare it
Then you bare it and you tear it
You want it all but you can't have it
It's in your face but you can't grab it
It's alive, afraid, a lie, a sin
It's magic, it's tragic, it's a loss, it's a win
It's dark, it's moist, it's a bitter pain
It's sad it happened and it's a shame
You want it all but you can't have it
It's in your face but you can't grab it
What is it?
It's it
What is it?
It's it
What is it?
It's it
What is it?
It's it
It's so groovy it's outta sight !
This entire album is amazing. One of my favourites.
January 30, 2020: 30 years since the release of this single!
A time-proof classic!
Amen
Don't fuck me brain
Jesus makes me old, i remember buying this on tape, still one of the best bands i have heard tho
Me too!!!
No QUESTION.
That outro is still gives me goosebumps and I’m not ashamed to say it’s beautiful 🥹
So true, no shame there .
Outro has lived rent free in my head since I saw the video play on mtv
I spent about 5 years back in the 90s waiting for them to play this song on the radio, hoping they would say the name of the bands name. Specifically because of the intro. It did something to me that I never knew music could do.
Except for the poor fish suffocating 😢
I'm not even a vegetarian, I eat meat all day every day. But filming and enjoying animal suffering is fucked up
He has issues with fishes.same as "falling to pieces" video🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺
One of the best outros of all time
Yeah 🤟 mandatory suicide too
This song remains EPIC!!!!
That guitar solo is... Dare I say it? EPIC!
how dare u? ha u r correct tho my friend
What else could it be?! Maybe fuckin awsome, but epic certainly!
My Faith in people's puns are No More such a shame.
I feel like I've just had a Midlife Crisis reading these

Just awesome energy
Music..
I've been getting the piano from the end of this song stuck in my head lately, and just now found it
I was driving home today and queued up this song on Spotify, I came home and not even five minutes later I heard my dad blasting the exact same song upstairs. Faith No More was the first band he ever saw live so this band means a lot to him. I guess I really am my dad’s daughter 😂
Why does that happen ?
I love it! This is an amazing and unique band. I am also super happy that my daughter is now a huge nirvana fan, so I’m sure your dad loves this.

This song will always be a🔥🔥🔥 BANGER.
From around 3:34, the piano starts kicking in while the other instruments are still playing. All these instruments beautifully blend in and play together until all the instruments, except for the piano, start fading away leaving the piano solo. Just amazing.
At the bar we'd run and flop on the floor at the end,lol!🤣 *Sigh*... good times!🤘
why does literally no one talk about that outro ever? I hate this song, but love that outro so much
Every single member of the band is nuts and I love them.

For a moment, this song took me back to 1992 - I literally just remembered watching this video in the big TV room at my dorm at TEXAS (Hook'em!). I so wish I could re-live the late 80's and 90's; the last era of simplicity, no cells phones, no internet and people actually gave a damn about each other. Those days are gone forever.

It's hard to explain how big this song was on MTV in 1990 and how it broke down the barriers for weird ass heavy bands like Jane's Addiction, Alice In Chains, and Nirvana to be in heavy rotation.
All those bands are awesome
They INVENTED the 90's
@@maximummatt73 I wouldn't say just them. R.E.M. was probably the most important pre Nevermind alternative band. Losing My Religion was a big hit on the charts.

@@larryhughes4058 I would argue that pixies or sonic youth would be more worth of that title. While they were low sellers, they were still infinitely more important.

All I have to say is that this was one of the best videos when I was a kid. SF music rules!
This song makes me remember when MTV actually played music videos.
Kevin Anderson Yep. Before reality TV took over MTV...and networks everywhere.
Anyone remember when MTV labeled this song as "What is it" before they wrote the correct name "epic"?
i remember this being on the "mtv top 100 music videos" marathon. i was like, 10, and this song blew me away.
Actually they still play music videos. I set them to record MTV's Rock Block
silver0078 yeah but I meant MTV was originally just 24 hours per day music videos
I went to high school with Mike Patton @ Eureka High, the Home Of The Loggers. I was not friends with him but we would pass in the hallways and say what's up..
He was a cool and crazy guy.
He definitely can sing!
D10 DozerMan thats cool. What was he like? Popular crowd, band kids, weird kids?
@@ry_antl_aqiqx_x7543 I wanna know too.
I kinda believe you, I kinda don’t.
that’s cool. Didn’t they form mr bungle around high school or college?
Kool story bro
‘91 I listened to this nearly every morning before school! I’d wake up early on the weekends to put on rage,(a music tv show) often timing it just right for this song to have with breakfast!
This whole album is....EPIC!
Back when MTV was awesome. Music videos before school, after school and fall asleep to more music videos. Wake up and do it again. MTV is pure garbage now
I hear you. And now I feel lost and alone with too much garbage and too much choice in everything and anything nowadays
Aside from Ridiculousness, absolutely agree. 90% of that bullshit belongs on TLC or somethin
Derek Sterling foreal man.. back when Bevis and butthead were the only “show” that was played on MTV other than MTV news lol I think it started getting shitty around the same time I was graduating high school. Though I did like Jackass and Andy Milonakis show.. after that I stopped watching it entirely.
Nick Crim ridiculousness is okay other than Chanel west coast. That laugh and the amount of ditziness is beyond annoying.
Kpop Music destroy the MTV Nigga... and the Art of True Music was dead bcoz of them...
Got to hang with Mike and Jim Martin at the Bayou in Washington DC. During this tour. They came out after sound check and my friends and I chatted with them for over an hour. Jim bumming cigs. Cool as hell to hang with. Snagged Mike's watch when he was crowd surfing. Went to give it back but he tool me to keep it. Circus of Power opened. Awesome night. Went on to meet Mike a couple more times.
The piano at the end, the most beautiful exclamation point to the message of the song
Pardon my ignorance, but what is the message of the song? I heard this song all summer long in 1989 and didn't care for it then, but now at least I dig the riffs.
@@Torgo1969 the message of the song is up to you, read the lyrics, because sometimes the catchiness makes the words seem playful
@@Name-uv8hi I did look them up and still can't make much sense of them, other than "you want it all but you can't have it". Yeah, one has to make sacrifices to achieve certain desires, and by doing so one won't be able to achieve other different desires. Going down one path blocks other paths. Is that supposed to be some profound "message"? Because normal people on the street know this once they've lived for a while. Children want it all, but adults know that sacrifices have to be made.
@@Torgo1969 beautiful. fucking beautiful!
@@Torgo1969 you went above and beyond my expectations. Perfect
These guys feel soooo much bigger than they are....saw them once in a tiny gig in the arse end of UK (my hometown, Birmingham). They were amazing musicians, and really gave of themseves in terms of interacting with the audience. It frustrates me that the band don't get the credit they deserve. So unique, their highly orchestrated and histrionic take on retro sounds combined with superb lyrics ahead of their time.....i just hope they all live off their music
A go-to band when you want to remember your youth and carefree times. My brother introduced me to so many bands as a kid including FNM, Pearl Jam, Stone Temple Pilots, Live, Soundgarden to name a few. He would copy tapes for me so I would have my own instead of stealing his 😊I still listen to these bands 30+ years on. Good times. Happy memories. Great music.
Same here, and other bands like RATM, Green Day, Nirvana. People always say their parents influenced their musical tastes but, for me, it was definitely my brother.
I'm trying to remember if this song was my introduction to this kind of music
I played this song on a piano and it too exploded :|
Exploited!
Ahahahaha !!!
Is the piano ok?
before or after it started raining
You've got the touch
