Chilly Gonzales 'Something About Us' (Daft Punk cover) // BeatCast OffBeat Session

[@chriskalos_xyz]

Guys this guy can normally play really well and all hahah he's joking around. He actually collaborated with Daft Punk on RAM. He arranged Within.

[@JoeJeremiah]

Wow, that was incredible.

[@MichaelKoklemin]

I would love to play the piano the way he does... magic.

[@REXATERPANTHERA00]

For a satirical drunk character he played extremely well and I can only hope that one day I may be able to play like this 👏🙌

[@RHCPnoel12]

it makes me cry so much...

[@EthanVillanueva]

I wonder if that riff at 3:39 was inspiration for LaLa Land's Another Day Of Sun.

[@gutmorgensurfen]

I just found out about Chilly, he is a huge inspiration. Thanks Chilly for you!

[@Apropoetic]

A lot of people don't know that Chilly Gonzales is a character it would appear...

[@2Dtube1]

I know, right? If people would see him play in "piano battles" he dresses up like he just went for a jog, while the dress code was formal, tuxedo and all.

[@mattsephton]

There's a bit of Limit to Your Love in here that he wrote with Feist. 2:09

[@Bolerophon]

The actual refined versioin of this on spotify is sooooo good: Something About Us Chilly Gonzales version

[@mattsephton]

Phenomenal

[@felpo82]

excelente versión

[@anchovyundpraline3052]

I like this version more than the quiet ones he has on spotify. This one's quite brash but it's more emotional and loud and all that. Wish this version was on there too. Great man, even greater fingers.

[@estevaosilvano]

Beatiful

[@TheKsae]

Would love to see what you do with any Strokes song from first three albums.

[@franciscosolanolopez9692]

Why he says digital love and plays something about us?? DRUGS

[@bernardawilliams4834]

exactly

[@socalspirit805]

Francisco Solano Lopez lmao I was thinking the same thing!

[@nanana2010]

[@Sketch137]

That was fuckin hilarious man hahaha. I actually felt the emotion you were putting into it, and that's what music's all about.

[@pavelow45]

wow.. just wow

[@tanorcamara9115]

C'est le plus humain des génies. Il est la confirmation du génie humain.

[@CHBasswick]

Kinda remind me of a song from a Miyazaki film...

[@ulyskarue]

Que c'est bon.....

[@carlosrosales8376]

ecxelent

[@romelsilvera2153]

Amazingg!!

[@thecouponking]

I don't understand why this doesn't have more views?

[@MriMakeTrouble]

It's not how the sound is produced, But the actual sound itself.

[@rishieeelectro]

you should actually make a cover for digital love... it sounded great in the collaborators!

[@bobenchorben]

Well said, sir.

[@Guirossal]

I agree. But your tunes are also incredible! =)

[@nicolasdantes]

Hey Guys, give him some credit for the title mistake, he is after all a músical (!) genious

[@TakeKareMusic]

gr8

[@SuperPrincipeCarlos]

Also he is an old friend of Thomas Bangalter, he doesnt need to pretend like Pharrell.

[@blithemiscellany8257]

Who gives a fuck if he said Digital Love? His message is still there, either it's Something About Us or Digital Love.

[@gman86]

my role model

[@kite9096]

He said digital love ?

[@SylentArtist]

That was a journey

[@pauldruet]

Attention 1 2 3 GENIS !! respect

[@jeantrollin5787]

1min22s to 1min43s: 21 secondes de quintessence musicale

[@nofx84]

I think what you're calling "bashing" of keys is actually what the musical term "dynamics" is. Something that is highly under utilized in most pop music today.

[@gadielacdc06480673m]

i just witnessed the murder of this awesome song, and it was great!!

[@TonyAran]

MAN I WAS CONFUSED!!!

[@rebekahwilliams6166]

Thank u😁😘👊only reason I'm sane

[@ytviceman7495]

go jason!!!

[@terocan9987]

He's quite chill actually, and the "genius" self-reference is a joke. But yeah, this isn't his best performance.

[@avatarphoenix9734]

I was expecting better

[@avatarphoenix9734]

Digital love? xD it's actually Something about us

[@OslowEsport]

lache poce bleu

[@johnroh4212]

fuck yeah!!!

[@briankiz1]

One of the few people I can accept calling themselves a musical genius.

[@daesonesb8]

@3:17 is amazing. Give me those chords!

[@cesc451]

0:11 Novak Djocovic??????????'

[@cesc451]

haha thanks

[@kaptankulakbocegi]

It reminded me Thelonious monk.

[@MonkeyKong21]

work it harder, make it better

[@ustoeurtoustoeur]

i like daft punk now

[@astrofusoner8948]

That's what I was thinking but he says the same thing on every video, so I have my doubts. Plays like a boss though.

[@ianharvey9136]

He is joking. I fell for it the first time I saw it too.

[@NicoXenakisMusic]

I have to say I don't necessarily understand his style. I consider myself a music and art appreciator but a lot of the time he's just bashing keys. Is that his typical technique? I guess it's original. If he's an old friend of Thomas' though I trust the choice to use him.

[@housebest6379]

que lastima que su microfono halla saturado

[@alanclarke1763]

this is not how you record a piano

[@sidneyalberts2916]

IKR!!! FUCKKK!!

[@shank0022]

Wow, great use of audiophile terms. It's not always about the audio, it's about that experience. The playing overrides the audio quality in this case, it wasn't intended to be something of masterful sound, it's just a guy playing the piano. Oh, and there are more sibilance problems than anything else, so yeah. There's that

[@BastianUllr]

... if you are an appreciator, why you don't go and listen to some more songs or albums before asking stupid things?

[@SkyVanilla95]

Lmaoo this is what it called love drunk

[@Kramit48]

He looks like a drunk, and his playing just reinforces that.

[@rahtheyful]

Awkward that he called 'Something About Us' Digital Love instead. :P

[@maxiewawa]

Terrible recording. I don't think they have miked up the piano, are just using the camera microphone. Overloading in the middle bits.

[@TysonBuilds]

I wonder how he got on their new album without even knowing the right song he was playing.

[@MrManningata]

He's not much of a musical genius, this is Something About Us, not Digital Love

[@TheRogerronaldo]

Dat chest hair tho

[@kingrich742]

Cubase need not apply!!

[@carlosbob8392]

digital love? hahahahaha

[@Tecknorio]

Digital Love? And he calls himself a musical genius.

[@memmo89]

The Arrangement is good. Your Piano is not 100% in Tune, The recording is Horrible. The playing has no Dynamic. No Genius.

[@professoryinyang258]

It seems that you don't know him…

[@floatrunner]

The playing has no Dynamic...lol...you´re funny...

[@KUPHSER]

i love daft punk but there are so many electronic music artists from any era who are incredible you're good but if you're such a musical genius, why is this rendition cheesy as shit? this is awful by any "musical genius" standards

[@halberggb3124]

you know this was improvised right?

[@KUPHSER]

yes, and like i said, its cheesy as shit.

[@lucasmerrill3206]

Lemme have you jump behind the piano and see how good you do? Also call me when you produce Grammy nominated albums, and also break the world record for longest solo performance

[@4apay90]

window dressing... insincere..

[@paradoxstudio292]

Sorry, but he lost the essence of the song, lost the poetry, and changed it in a nervous thing. But it's just my opinion. And i'm nobody.

[@trololollolololololl]

Yep nobody

[@astrofusoner8948]

Cocky much? Who calls themselves a genius.
