Let's do this!! I want to know all of your thoughts on all of these topics!

[@theritchie2173]

Great stream, as expected, some slight wobbles with the audio at points but that's to be expected over 6,000 miles of dusty Internet cables. You might have plugged his training at the end, though - I believe that's standard collab etiquette these days. At least chuck a link in the description. Looking forward to the next one, in the meantime I have 6 hours of Andy Murray to catch up on.

I am 44 in October and I was having a discussion with my fiancé that the slippy slope of short attention spans in kids (this is just my opinion) started with the Cartoon network quick edit style cartoons that never had a a shot longer than a few seconds. There was also several channels of this stuff available 24/7 On wacaday they showed segments of an episode of Transformers so it it could take a month to watch one. You had to learn to be patient and appreciate what you had. I love these long in depth discussions and when a conversation develops you end up on a subject you never imagined at the beginning and it can bring a golden moment. This video is a good example I feel of that.

Rick is the music teacher we all wish we had back in the day.

[@valuedhumanoid6574]

No shit! I went thru multiple teachers and they were all brilliant, but they just didn't know how to connect with young learning students. They took the fun out of it and made it like homework. I finally confronted one and asked why she's having me transcribe Mary Had a Little Lamb and Happy Birthday and the other nursery rhymes and she told me it was because the melodies are so ingrained that it makes the connection between the ear, the hands and the brain. When you see a C sharp, you hear a C sharp and you play the C sharp, you build that bridge between the three. I told her we could do the same thing with ACDC Back in Black and not only would it be learning, I would have FUN. She then switched over to using songs I actually enjoyed and my playing exploded. If I had a guy like Rick it would have been even better!

[@Thekeytolifeismusic]

Justin Hakwins is a damn hero. How does a musician keep up with the likes of Rick Beato? By being gracious, kind, curious, and of course absurdly talented. Simply brilliant conversation. Thank you!

[@robinwilliams5794]

I watch Rick Beato quite a lot, so for you to have him as a guest is a no brainer. He is a special man who has made teaching about music his life's work. I have also become a big fan of not only The Darkness, but of your KZbin channel Justin Hawkins Rides Again. I truly enjoy watching and listening to you. Intelligent, informative and a little self deprecating humor goes a long way with me. So thank you and I'm hoping to see you with The Darkness in the San Diego California area someday.

Plus Rick clearly rates you as an artist. Also so great to hear people who know what they’re talking about and can articulate themselves properly. Artists can’t always to do that.

[@WookieGolgberg]

I watch Justin to get the perspective of a rock vocalist. I watch Rick to get the perspective of a really cool music teacher. The combination is brilliant.

[@Firesoul001]

A crossover episode between two of my favourite channels, what a treat ! This calls for coffee and chocolate.

[@ItsDburch]

Rick's story of going to work with his dad, listening to his dad yell at people cracked me up. People's core memories are special, and it's great when they are funny.

[@charlieteljeur5391]

Justin is SO likeable and sincere. He's the kind of guy you'd just like to hang around. It's cool how those qualities are so evident in people who possess those qualities.

[@joesretrostuff]

I like how charismatic he is with dropping in archaic phrases, and the fact he's like that when talking to other people not just in his monologues

[@smelltheglove2038]

I really like him. I wasn’t so much a fan of Darkness, I mean I did like the “Thing called love” song but never really gave them much time afterwards. He’s a really good guy.

[@greengrass1072]

I’ve been Rick Beato follower for awhile now and Justin’s videos just started popping up on my KZbin page and I ended up watching one of his episodes and really enjoyed his personality. The two of them together? My gosh, it’s fantastic if you’re a fan of music. They are like the person that once in a while you meet and end up having a conversation with and have so much in common with their knowledge of music that you could talk to them forever.

J-Hawk is all about the performance: the camp swagger, the cheeky innuendo. Beats is all about the music: thoughtful, insightful, informed. Both have shitloads of enthusiasm and that’s what keeps me coming back to each. So much thanks …!

[@michaeltveten8458]

I give Justin a lot of shit in the comments, but his English up-bringing has allowed him to communicate very eloquently. This is an awesome exchange of ideas about the music, and the industry. Kudos to Justin and Rick, for sharing their earned introspection.

[@mykhedelic6471]

Finally, someone has Beatoed The Beato. This is the most get to know Rick that's been, thus far. Now he's the subject. And who better to sit and chat and engage Sir Beato then Sir Justin of Hawkins. KZbin of the Year award contender.

Rick has made music theory accessible to non musicians like my parents. It’s been great to have them watch a few of his “what makes this song great” videos and for them to sort of understand songs the way I try to hear then
