This is a great video!!!!!
Thanks keonepax!!



Tchaikovsky = ridiculously good

I don't know what it is about classical music, it just hits me in a way that says- anything is possible.
Just dream it, and figure it out. It makes me feel incredibly small on one hand (true) but paradoxically;
Free to try whatever, you know just because something has always been a certain way, it doesn't mean
that it always will. A pioneer knows this implicitly,

There has to be a vision, who ever thought of anything thats in existence, just do it already right?
Big Mac, combustion engine, PCR, foam hands, MBA's, Batman, just think of something and do it already!!!
Can you imagine how the time passes? We sit around unaware, heaven forbid watching television, when
its right there, these guys figured it out. I'll bet they only cared about music and maybe
one other thing! How nice, these were real McCoys, not given to materialism or greed, or
fame (maybe I'm romanticizing) but my schema of who these people are as interpreted
through their music fits my philosophy- when you put out quality, its not with $$$ in mind,
its above that
Take Bach, Jesu, joy of man's desirin, my current favorite, who do you think he was
talking to with this one? The big kahuna on the next floor up? I'll bet he didn't write it with the charts
in mind. Thats why 400 hundred years later he lives on and his spirit (as conveyed by
his choice of notes) reaches people in the future and who knows where, long after we're 
dead and gone?
he couldn't have possibly foreseen his music playing in little magic boxes called PC's and ipods
on the "internet", known to pretty much everyone.
do you think he would have cared how he would be viewed today? i don't,
hence he tapped that paradox of getting only when you no longer want, succeeding
when you're TRULY ready to fail, feel pain; freedom when you accept the truth, he tapped those 
timeless wisdom mcnuggets rather nicely
bach, beethoven, mozart
i hear you loud and clear, find that higher calling, that thing that makes the world a
beautiful place (depsite mexican gangland decapitations, wars in iran, cancer, fear etc...),
tchaikovsky- i hear you man - just give me time to do the work, where did you find the strength
to get up every morning and really truly say, i don't care what happens, this is all i can do.
i've done all i can do.
i'm telling you i'm getting it, i'm starting to understand, i'm starting to 'get it'

and if nothing excites me??? than i'm just a big
softy in my latter day couch potato culture, taking my chances, blowing in the wind
fattened for the...

what is with this formatting
