Hello, guys. Welcome to another episode of TwoSet Violin.
Today's video is about the most viewed videos
for every instrument on YouTube.
That's right. We basically search every instrument on YouTube.
Eddy: And then filter it by most views.
Yeah, I don't know.
It'll be interesting to see what the most popular videos are.
I'm ready to be disappointed.
- Let's put it that way. - Yeah.
Disclaimer.
We had to search this ourselves manually,
so maybe some of them might not be
a hundred percent accurate but, anyway.
So our channel's TwoSet Violin,
so obviously the first instrument we're gonna search is...
Uh-huh, that's right.
Gotcha there.
Ow.
TwoSet Violin and piano are best friends.
- Alright, so the first... - So the first one.
Most viewed piano video on YouTube
- is... - Brett: Wow.
250 milli...
Okay, can I just say? I love the dislike.
I don't love that. I'm just gonna point out the dislike.
That's insane.
What are they doing wrong?
Oh, no, I'm late for Wendy's show!
Oh, we've always seen this before.
- Yeah. - But not the piano version.
- We... It was like... - Ooh.
- I remember doing the violin one. Yeah, okay. - Yeah.
Put it in and then play.
Dude, these people are huge.
Oh, oh, oh. Here we go.
Wow, the piano's so cool.
I just love that the dynamics in the backing track
- is way too loud. - Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You don't even hear the piano, you just hear...
Dude, look at the kid.
I don't know, maybe she's done so much.
She looks like she's like at gunpoint or something.
"Say this line now!"
- If I could get 236 million views, - Brett: Yeah.
- I'd exploit children too. - Brett: Yeah.
- That's... - Just kidding.
Just kidding.
Piano gang out there, how do you feel?
- Yeah. - It's not even a piano.
- It's technically a little keyboard toy. - Brett: Yeah.
On the plus side, though,
236 million kids watching this
are now going to want to learn the piano.
That's right.
So, piano gang, I think you won here.
The most viewed actual piano, like, music video, though,
is...
A piano cello cover.
- It is. - Of A Thousand Years.
Eddy: Oh, is that the Piano Guys?
Wow, that's insane.
197 million views.
Respect.
And respect for getting that piano out there, right?
- I was just thinking that. - Yeah, like...
Knowing what we know, organizing shows...
- Remember in London? - Brett: Yeah.
Random story.
We needed to lift the piano up on a little, like,
- two-centimeter thing... And they... - Yeah, and they wanted to charge like,
extra 500 pounds just to lift it up.
I'm like, "Dude."
So if they got like a piano moving company for that,
- that alone would have costed so much. - So much.
So, we're not gonna play it though,
- 'cause we'll probably get copystriked. - Brett: Yeah.
Alright, for...
Oh, I wonder who it could be.
- Better be TwoSet Violin. - Ah, TwoSet Violin, yeah, of course.
Fair enough.
Yeah, that's very fair enough.
- Yeah. Yeah, next. - Next.
So, for...
Oh, I want to know.
It's a movie clip from a movie called, She's the Man.
And "I'm Viola."
"I'm Viola." Oh, like the name Viola?
It's not even the instrument!
- Ooh. - Viola's more like...
- Oh, actually, maybe, I don't know. Let's watch a bit. - Let's watch.
- Maybe she turns into a viola? - Okay. Okay, I really want to see this.
I've been pretending to be my brother
while he was in London for the past two weeks.
Wow.
So I can make the team and beat Cornwall.
Whoa.
Viola: But my brother came home...
Whoa.
This guy's like, "I can't believe I'm part of this..."
- Yeah, yeah. - "...movie."
Where's the Viola part?
- I don't know. I'm looking for it. - "Just because..."
...you wear a wig doesn't prove you're a girl.
Okay then.
Dude.
How does it feel, viola gang,
that this clip is the most viewed video on YouTube for viola?
Eddy: I've yet to see where the viola is.
But the most viewed viola video that's music related is...
Again nothing to do with viola.
It's a pop musician,
- I'm guessing pop, called Bruna Viola. - Yeah.
Viola's the last name.
Oh, no.
- Alright, gonna get copystriked so, not gonna play it, but... - Yeah.
- Eddy: Hey, there's a guitar in the video. - Brett: Yeah.
Eddy: And a horse.
See, at least with piano and violin there was...
- Violin and piano. Yeah. - ...violin and piano inside it.
Viola, you're just... You're just the last name, apparently.
Alright, for...
So, interesting enough, cello, like the violin,
the number one viewed videos were the same.
And so for cello, it is,
- I mean, not surprisingly, 2CELLOS. - 2CELLOS.
- Of course. - At 200 million views.
It's pretty funny. I like this video.
- They start off being, like, classical. - Classical.
- And then they basically do America's Got Talent, - And traditional.
where they're like, "Nah, classical music is boring." And then...
Alright.
But, I mean, even though I hate that stereotype,
I like 2CELLOS,
'cause they're actually really good at the cello, so.
- Alright. - Alright...
- Oh, it is a double bass. - Ooh.
♪ Because you know I'm all about that bass ♪
♪ About the bass ♪
♪ No treble ♪
Okay, that's funny.
Because the song is called All About That Bass.
- But there's also double bass... - Double bass, yeah.
...in the video.
So it's like an exponential for the word bass.
Brett: Yeah.
You can argue in that sense even bass did better than viola.
Alright, next one.
Well, let me guess.
I'm gonna guess already. It's probably...
Some like Latin American hip-hop music with flute in it.
Yeah, I think so.
Or not.
Whoa!
No way, that's sick!
Dude, this guy's got 270 million views.
I did not expect that at all.
Flautists, how do you feel?
With the pan flute?
Look at that screenshot.
He's really into the flute.
Find yourself someone that would blow...
Like he blows that...
Yeah, exactly...
People search piccolo?
Of course.
Piccolo actually just means "small" in like...
- Yeah, small. - ...Italian.
- Piccolo is small. - So it's just like, small anything.
It's a kids' channel again.
- And the most music related for piccolo... - Instrument.
A video called...
Is that a roast?
Burn.
It's not even a video of piccolos.
It's just a video about how
piccolo is one of many obscure instruments.
Let's see what other instruments they have.
Bass flute.
Oh, yeah.
- They're all wind instruments too. - They are.
I guess they're less common, so...
Hey, it's not us.
- It's not us. This video said it. - It's this video.
Alright.
What's that, um...
recorder meme? Like, Titanic?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Oh.
It's that guy. I know that guy, I've seen him before.
Yes.
- Dude, this is so random. - 37 million views.
That's crazy views.
- I love the fact that it's just filmed his freaking room. - Room, yeah.
- Compared to all the others are like produced videos. - Yeah.
Pure skills from practice.
Respect for recorder gang.
What do you think will be the clarinet?
Gershwin. Nah, I can't think it's...
Nah, Gershwin would be too obscure.
No way.
Did classical music just make it?
Brett: Clarinet.
First classical legit piece to get on to the list.
And it's interesting too because
clarinet was one of those instruments
that were introduced later.
- That's true. That's true. - They didn't exist in the Baroque era.
Yeah, okay.
They pulled through, clarinet gang.
Next...
Alright, maybe bassoon will be the same.
- Some classical... - I think so.
Or not.
- Brett: Dude. - It's kind of like the piccolo one.
Yeah, yeah.
It seems that this video is just
- demonstrating a bunch of instruments, - Oh, yeah.
and bassoon just gets like a little 30 seconds.
The bassoon is a woodwind instrument
and a part of the double reed family.
It uses a reed similar to the oboe.
There's something creepy about this whole scene.
While he's explaining, everyone's like just...
- Eddy: Just staring, like... - Brett: At the back just staring, like...
Alright.
I reckon it's some pop song, for sure.
Jason... Oh, but it's not even a...
- Oh, no, there is a trumpet. Okay, okay. - Oh, there is a trumpet. Oh.
It's a pop song called Trumpet that has trumpets.
Yeah.
I don't want to play too much 'cause it's gonna get copystriked
but I want to listen to, like, one second.
Yeah, okay.
- Trumpet, that's your representation right there. - Brett: Yeah.
Alright, next is, uh...
- Strauss horn concerto. - Brett: Romance.
- Something romantic. - Eddy: Jokes.
Wait, what?
Ding ding.
Dude, that's kind of cool.
41 million views.
Wow.
I love the little...
- ...that he did. - Yeah, yeah.
I remember Crazy Frog.
- It's kind of epic but it's also kind of tragic at the same time. - Yeah.
Out of all the other repertoire.
Yeah.
Alright.
I think it's like pop music for trombone as well, like,
- Kanye West... - Brett: Yeah, it's like...
- And everyone's just gonna go crazy. - Eddy: Yeah.
- Oh, okay. - Ooh.
It's orchestra.
No, I've seen this, yeah.
Let's skip a bit.
Wow, I love that transition.
- It's so smooth, yeah. - That's so good.
- I'm glad classical music is there. - Very good.
- Classical musicians just having fun. - Eddy: Yeah.
Every time I play Prokofiev, there's a part of me that hears...
the Star Wars...
It's funny too, it's like, it's classical music,
but of course, the trombones are the jokesters.
- Yeah, yeah, of course, they're the ones. Yeah, yeah. - They're always the humorous ones in like...
- Yeah. Yeah. - Like, having a blast, get a beer afterwards.
Alright, last three.
It's a TV network name.
- Tuba Studio. - You're a TV network.
Wow.
Oh, that's funny.
That's really funny.
- Okay. - Oh, wow.
- It's like full animation. That's pretty legit, dude. - Wow.
And the most viewed music related video for tuba is...
Brett: What?
Why is this video so flat?
That's the most autotune I've heard in, like, one second.
Yeah.
I don't see any tubas in this video.
That's not the tuba life.
Clickbait.
It's freaking car life and autotune life.
It's half a screen life.
Yeah.
Alright. Last two.
Oh, this could be anything though.
Oh.
Wow.
This is cool.
I love their hair movement as well.
- It looks like they're like summoning some, like, devil... - Yeah, performing a ritual, yeah, like...
And their hair's going like this, they're like...
They're summoning the antithesis of Ling Ling.
Yeah.
Last one.
The most viewed is...
Is this freaking...
Oh, I thought it was America's Got Talent.
Oh, that's The Voice.
- The Voice. - Oh.
But isn't The Voice for singing?
Yeah.
Oh, she's singing and playing the harp.
- This guy's reaction is so funny. He's like... - Brett: Yeah... He's just like, "What?"
He's like, "I've never heard this instrument before."
At least the harp's in it.
Yeah, I think it's alright.
It's passable.
Thanks for watching, everyone.
This is actually a really entertaining video for...
It's really interesting to see where the instruments go.
'Cause there's some names like viola and tuba just...
- Completely unrelated. It had to be the viola and the tuba too. - It just got wiped out.
- Like, even the recorder had the recorder, right? - Yeah, yeah. It was...
Look there you go, guys.
Instrument representation. Keep practicing.
We're all going to make it to the top one day.
Hopefully, one day, TwoSet Violin would be up there.
Oh, yeah, let's go.
- Let's go! - Amongst the ranks.
Let's go. Alright.
See you guys.
