imagine being silent for 4 minutes and 33 seconds and you get copystriked by youtube.
The earth will prolly end before then.

Can you upload the full song please?
While this song is still going the Corona virus done
3:07 I literally read that book for school 😂

When I thought that songs with over 15 minutes where long:
God damn it I actually laughed at the kidneys being an organ thing
I love this song so much
I’d like to hear it!
639k views.
But what is the longest song that isn't in a live moment in germany?
I can only hear my heart beating cuz im wearing headphones
0:19 Ah yes, my favorite song: Nintendo Switch Mii Maker
So that the song you use on every ALthe video you make?
3:05 House of the Scorpion! I read that in middle school, and loved it! It's like if Gattaca was about cloning instead of geneticly modifying humans, and was set in a future where the Mexican cartels carved out their own country between the US and Mexico.
Um no the longest song is the sound of the Universe since the Big Bang, 13.8 billion years long and counting.
This is the most beautiful song I ever heard.
If you are in some kind of musical competition, use this very good song
I was half expecting him to rickroll us
Just imagine they put a Rick Roll in the middle but you couldn’t tell because it was so slow
this guy doesn't know about the song that never ends
Collei
wana be friends?
I thought Long player was supposed to be the longest song ever seen as though it’s meant to go on forever I’m pretty sure
Anyone know the link to the music video
My dumb ass thinking he was gonna play the whole song
Wait the short name of "As Slow as Possible" is " A SLAP" Bro why you gotta slap people with that short name
I already knew who John Cage was and his works are hilarious, I really recommend watching his "Water Walk" performance. He said the reason why the name of the performance "Water Walk" was because there was water and he was walking around. Honestly that guy is four parallel universes ahead of us lol
this is the song that never ends...
Yo it started on my birthday! (Not the exact year tho)
september 5th...... isn’t that a subreddit
just imagine aliens randomly hearing organ notes once all of humanity has perished
6 days before 9 11
5th September 264o huh? Great, I can't wait to hear the end of it.

I thought the longest song was: "I know a song that gets on everybodies nerves. Everybodies nerves. Everybodies nerves. I know a song that gets on everybodies nerves. And this is how it goeess. Bum bum bum (Repeat!)"
Maximum jam.
. Longest song in the world: The Rise and Fall of Bossanova
Oh Poor Neighbors of the church...,
In 1985 the simpsons would exist in 2 yeers
February 5th is when i was born!
3:04 it scary because I legit finished that book yesterday
The longest song I heard was Pink Floyd echos 23 minutes long
No sound in the song
Wait i wasn't suppose to hear anything
Honest Wong
15 ditë më parë
*holup*
imagine messing up a note and having to play it again
6-3-9 six-three-nine six-tee-nine sixty-nine *nice*
Wow he really just silently rickrolled us
tbh i was half expecting a rickroll
imagine if they copyrighted the song and now people can’t post videos with no sound
0:41 is squidwards favorite song
"Pianos are percussion instruments." Actually, the piano's a string instrument. A struck board zither, to be exact.
“By hitting a string with a hammer” Puny american pluck string with tiny finger. In soviet Russia, *WE SMASH STRING WITH HAMMER*
Me (to friend): What's your favorite song? Friend: Well
Lol wrong chord
As a person who lives in Maryland this crap is normal
It’s funny because my speakers were malfunctioning
When half as interesting is actually way more interesting than all the other channels.
I just got ear-raped when i put the phone to my ear to hear the non existant song and then got BLASTED
Composers named John are always the best, like Williams.
I’m gonna sing it
These musicians are so annoying, they need ASLAP
Supposedly, this piece makes headlines around the world every time a new note is being played, and people travel from all over the world to hear this. Covid-19 kinda ruined ASLSP for those hardcore organ-enthusiasts, though...
Ahh I had to listen to the whole song in my music lesson in school he also made a piece where the piano has to eat the hay??
As an organist, I was pretty thrilled to see this piece come up in my recommendations. I already knew about it but still. However. It's not a SONG. Lol gosh this is such a common thing that gets under classical musicians' skin. It's a piece. A song is always a piece of music that has words to be sung. Anything else (at least and especially in "classical" settings) is a piece. 4'33" is also, therefore, a piece. I know this sounds nitpicky but I mean. >.> The presenter kind of gives himself away when he says "I don't know music stuff." If that's the case, I kind of feel justified in thus nitpicking; you should have done some more research or gotten your "musician friend" to weigh in a little more, maybe. But really that's not what bothered me. I've been playing "songs" for my family and friends my whole life because people in the mainstream world will never call anything a piece because they only regularly interact with songs on the radio and that's fine. But man. I know you have to find jokes. I know sarcasm is a large part of your shtick. But seriously? Every freaking organist in the world has heard something about body parts. It's so unoriginal and unimaginative. Also, that whole little bit leading up to the organs joke was pretty disparaging of organs and organists and classical music in general. I know we're not the mainstream driving force behind music anymore but that's literally no reason to just automatically shit on us as being boring eccentrics every single time we come up in these kinds of videos. There's such a wider spin that could have been made of this entire video. The 639 year long piece of music involves some whacky engineering, a lot of counterculture within the classical music community, and - Who am I kidding, no one's still reading this lmao
A silent vid is not good
Imagine if the video got claimed for playing 4'33
Rapper’s Delight: I used to rule the world
Modern art, an industry that regards a guy so highly that he can basically troll everyone and they all still have to sit through it and somehow come up with deep interpretation of it
Me being big brain making one sound then making it an infinite loop
Who is watching this in 2021?
Finally! A song i can listen to while waiting the line at Newark Airport
A wise man once said "A song that never ends is no song at all."
Imagine missing a note and had to start over
Imagine buying a ticket to a sumphony, theatere or whatever..you go in and for 4 minutes and 33 seconds.it was just "........................................................................................................................................................................................"
Bruh moment
And I thought the 18-minute song Hemispheres by Rush was long...
I'm too fucking high for this
Am gunna make a 700 year song now see you soon
2021 ⬇
My numb brain actually thought we were going to hear the song for 639 years
i thought that the longest song is 6 minutes long-
1985 was when my mom was born
Who legends are watching in 2021
So that's the origin of the nake of that chievo from SCGMD4
“Quick! You need to get here ASAP!” *6 Hours Later* “What took you so long?” “I was going as slow as possible”
That was a pretty pogger song ngl
Lol
you know how odd it was to get to 5:40 and be like " WAIT A MINUTE THATS MY BIRTHDAY- OOOOO" because now I feel happy to know that an organ switched notes-
The longest song ever is we are the world
ow--
