what's wrong with background music? The narrators could be barely heard!

@Patrick_Cooper 4 ай бұрын

I just commented above. Yeah to much music not enough voice. I have encounter many such errors, from many different creators over the years. Usually everyone defends the music because it is classic or something. It's still to loud...

The many comments on the use of loud music and blurring in this video is noted. I will explain few key points about content protection and copyright concerns. The loud background music makes it harder for others to reuse the video without permission. It creates an obstacle for would-be content thieves who might otherwise mute or replace the audio to claim the content as their own. Removing loud music without affecting the original audio (e.g., narrations or dialogues) requires advanced editing skills. This makes it less appealing for potential infringers to steal and repurpose the content. Blurring violent parts of a video is a common practice to comply with KZbin policies. Videos containing such material can be flagged by viewers or detected by KZbin's automated systems, and this can lead to removal or age-restriction of the content. Many channels provide warnings about violent content at the beginning of the video. This informs viewers about the nature of the content and allows them to decide whether they want to proceed. Lastly, adding tags, watermarks, or logos to the video itself serves as a clear indication of ownership. This helps in asserting copyright claims and proving ownership if disputes arise.

His Imperial Majesty, the last Emperor of Ethiopia, Haile Selassie was a seer. He accurately predicted the aftermath of the invasion of Ethiopia 37:10: "It is us (Ethiopia) today, it WILL be you tomorrow" but no one listened and his prediction happened!

What would have been an excellent documentary was ruined by this HORRENDOUS background music, it is far too loud, it really makes listening to the narration difficult. Why do so many of these worth watching historical features insist on having loud music in the background, it really spoils or I should say RUIN the viewing.

Documentary is reflecting Mister Winston Churchill and his wife obsession toward Boento Mossolini at early years of Fascism rule over Italy 🇮🇹. But Fascism ambitions for controlling Mediterranean sea shorelines and sea lines created strategic confrontation between Britain 🇬🇧 and Italy 🇮🇹 at that time.

@1faustus Ай бұрын

Why do they feel the need to even add background music?? That and talking heads that are only given a snippet at a time before switching to another talking head. It's not even a proper historical narrative, just bullet points with music overlay to hide the low content and production values designed to appeal to those with very short attention spans.

@wimmeraparanormal6581 4 ай бұрын

This video smacks of a political white-wash. Only the barest mention of Mussolini's actual power base and how he created his party, what the term "fascism' actually refers to. The word 'Fasci' refers to a bundle of sticks (you'll see this symbol everywhere in Fascist Italy, including the roundel on all of their military aircraft) and this refers to his Political party, the PNF that took control of the various syndicated Trade Unions and amalgamated them. This gave him the traditional Socialist power base to seize power. His form of socialism was more aggressive but NOT murderously racist within Italy, so he wasn't exactly like the Nazi's. Political history is like ALL history, to learnt from. Don't hide it because its not 'politically correct'. The loony left of today is all about distortion and hiding what they don't want us to hear.

That is not even close to an accurate parallel. Biden is trying to jail his political opponent not Trump trying to jail Biden. Trump didn't "look her up" either. I'm not aware of any speech given by Trump where he believes in a master race or have seen expansion views and ambitions but please enlighten me as to which speech he taught those things. 1/6/2020 he fired up a mob. He's not Washington or Lincoln or Reagan for sure but so did Obama after the Michael Brown shooting. Trump doesn't have Brown shirts or black shirts and his red hats aren't violent like they were. I'm sure you may be able to point to 1 or 2 isolated incidents but saying that is like the Brown shirts or black shirts shows your historical ignorance.
