Practice every day, everyone!
Before you watch this video, there's a disclaimer:
You must practice 40 hours.
Otherwise, you cannot watch this video.
Alright!
Back to Ling Ling 40 Hours!
Oh wow...
Nice nice...
176 people not practicing right now, but that's okay.
We know you already did your practice.
Alright!
The first one...
*Tries singing Bach's Toccata and Fugue in D minor*
No way!
- That's such a flex! - Yep!
"Oh, I've never heard of Curtis..."
Six months later, you get into Curtis.
Subtley flexing, I like that.
- He's just... - I like that!
That's awesome. Congrats!
Ling Ling wannabes...
- Making us proud. - Yeah.
Bombard your neighbors with...
*Tries singing Bach's Toccata and Fugue in D minor*
"She sings horribly. I love it."
"My fiancé can't sing for s***."
"Not a single note hit, couldn't carry a tune if it had handles."
"I had never..."
"...told her this, and I never will."
"Singing makes her happy."
"Seeing her happy makes wretched days a little brighter."
"She's sing me to sleep before."
"It took a while, but I eventually fell asleep."
"It made me feel extremely loved."
Basically...
Someone really loves his fiancé...
and will put up with her very out-of-tune singing.
I mean, that's sweet.
In a way, it reminds you of how
parents have to put up with beginner violinists, like...
- Like "Screech, screech, screech!" - Yeah...
Sounds like dying chickens or something, that's what my auntie said.
- Really? - A good 5 years, like chicken dying.
- I'm like, "Mmm..." - Mmm.
Where did the second half come from?
Huh?
My perfect pitch cannot.
"Found this gem on Pinterest".
Okay, so it's...
Really?
What type of non-musician is that?
Oh, I love the last bit though.
Hahahaha, okay!
*Tries singing "Careless Whisper"*
I've also had people call the whole, entire string family guitars though.
"Is that a mini guitar?"
- "Wow, double bass! It's a big guitar right there!" - Woah...
Aww...
Aww...!
Poor kitty cat!
True! I always forget myself!
Isn't that funny?
- Paganini was actually a guitarist as well! - That's crazy.
- And he was good, apparently. - Yeah, he's... Talented bloke.
Dude, imagine just casually being the world's like, best violinist
and also being freaking epic at guitar.
I wonder what his guitar works sound like.
Ah, Caprice No. 24 on guitar.
Even the guitarists will play the violin music!
- It's all 24th Caprice and No. 5... - No way!
That's all guitar can do, 2 caprices.
They can't do 2- ah, just joking!
Well, there you go.
Isn't that funny!
The guitarist playing the violin pieces...
I did once [hear] a guitarist play "Chaconne" on the guitar,
- which was very interesting. - Uh huh...
It sounded really good,
but I think that's kind of cheating,
'cause there's a lot of different, little things
that a guitar... [versus on] violin it's easier to do.
- Yeah! 'Cause you can just be like *chord*! - (Brett) You know, like...
*Chord* I was like, "Ah, come on!"
'Kay, just kidding, guitarists.
Guitarists are gonna like...
- Don't start a war with Guitar Gang. - Oh no, can you imagine?
Huh?
I know, I'm...
- Okay, I see what the "WHAT" came from. - Yeah, I don't even need to read on, like...
- This is giving me that "England is my city" vibe. - "England is my city" vibe...!
"Yeah, my favorite sonata is Pachelbel's Canon."
"My favorite study on the violin is 'Clair de lune'"...
- "And my favorite key is..." - "J Major".
"Fur Elise" is not a symphony!
It's like saying that... I don't know, f***ing broccoli is a fruit.
- (Eddy) Ahh! - (Brett) Wow...
Oh yeah! It was my birthday like... a month ago.
- Lmao! - Hahaha, yeah!
But thank you so much!
Sorry for seeing it so late.
A, G, E, D.
I've officially aged.
- That is... - Woah hohoho!
I feel like when you hit 30 and you have birthdays with friends,
there's a hint of like, grieving.
- Yeah! - Like...
"I'm sorry, bro..."
It's like, "Welcome..."
"Ugh, my neck, my back..."
"Ugggh!"
Thank you.
Well...
Nice.
I also have perfect pitch... just so you know.
- *Sings a C* - C!
C... *sings a C*
Oh my God!
- The f***! - "High school photos of Eddy from my yearbook"!
(Brett) Dude!
Oh, I like that one!
With my freaking...
- Gatsby... - The fringe... yeah, Gatsby. Your hair.
Oh, I remember these guys here, 'cause...
Okay, so the guy to the left of me and the guy to the right of me...
their last names are all "Chen".
- Ohhhh...! - So that row is just like, "Chen, Chen, Chen, Chen, Chen"...!
Joke's on you!
I have long given up cringing, 'cause I have no dignity left.
- Why is the woodwinds... like this? - Yeah, just like, yeah.
Percussionists, just too much time.
- Mmm. - They can read, they can- actually they have books.
Novels or something, and they're just reading.
I used to get so jealous.
I remember distinctly...
It was like a professional orchestra too.
- Not even like, school rehearsal. - Yeah.
And I think it was [a] performance, even.
It could be rehearsal.
It was in the pit.
I remember like, peering across, and the woodwinds section...
They just had like, little iPads and Kindles,
and they're just like, watching stuff...
Musicians' secrets shouldn't be shared, ohh!
And I remember someone told me this story...
- You know [name of person]? - Oh yeah yeah.
Apparently, he got in trouble once, 'cause um...
Him and like, someone else were watching like,
- the Footy Finals live on like...! - Oh, it was...!
- Like, livestream, and I was like... - I was just about to say that.
I've seen people watch like, cricket and stuff.
- Just like, from their phones. - But that was in a performance, like in the pit!
Yeah, they did it in a performance!
I think they got busted.
This is just hearsay, like this is...
- Legend. - Ohhh wow, that is so funny.
- Yeah... - Ohhh wow, that is so funny.
Ooh!
Oh wow.
Oh my God.
"What do you think of his bow..."?
I mean uhh...
It's better than most TV shows and like...
Yeah! Actually...
- You played cello, right? - Yeah! It looks really good!
I mean, I'm no expert, but I've played cello before.
It looks really good!
- His bow's perpendicular to the neck, very nice. - Yeah!
- This poor dude, he must be a violist- no, I'm just joking. - Hehe.
- It's not meant to work. - It's "Fur Elise".
- "It's Fur Elise"! - Symphony Fur Elise.
Sometimes, you just have these notes.
They're way too low!
- This is what happens when you - G...
get A.I. to arrange music for you-
No, just kidding.
- Oh! - Woah!
Damn!
- Oh my God! Ooh, ooh! Mozart! - Oh wow! Hello!
- Oh damn! - Woah!
- Woah! - Woah! Chad!
- Oh wow. - Woah!
This is like those freaking TikTok filters.
If Handel had a Tinder profile,
- this is what it would look like. - Yeah! Handel's Tinder profile!
Ah dude, Liszt...
- Liszt doesn't change. - He just looks the same.
- He doesn't need... he's already perfect. - He doesn't need it. Yeah.
- Woah... - Bruh, not the baldness.
- Oh damn! - Woah!
- Whahaha! - Oh woah!
Chill, Antonio!
Is it Antonio or Antoinitta?
- Antoinette! - Antoinette!
Ooh!
Shostakovich!
- I love these captions. - Yeah.
Do you think if you made a fake Tinder profile with Shostakovich,
- would he get swipes? - Oh, yeah!
We should totally do it...
Just put these photos up...
"Which composer gets the most swipes on Tinder"...
- I mean, I've never used Tinder, just so you know. - (Brett) It's pretty funny.
I've been too busy practicing.
- Wow. - Damn.
That bow hold is worse than the...
...crime scene that we saw before.
"Both butt"- oh woah!
Don't damage the keyboard!
- That's pretty sacrilegious. - Without losing the tempo...!
Damn.
What if my buttocks doesn't span from a low F to a top G though?
Playing this requires the perfect-shaped buttock.
You need Rachmaninoff's... bum.
What?
- Wait, what? - "I never knew Ling Ling is racist until Bing tell me that".
"Ling Ling is not a racist term".
"I'm sorry, I have to disagree with you."
"Ling Ling is a racist term that stereotypes Asian people
as musical prodigies or overachievers."
*Gasp*
"It is often used as a joke or an insult by non-Asian...
people who mock Asian people's talents and skills and work ethic."
Wow! This thing is taken so ser...
Bing! Your name is Bing Bing!
What you doing, Bing Bing?
You making fun of Ling Ling!
You can't do that!
-...blah, blah, blah... - S***!
I've been racist this whole time!
Oh my God!
Sorry, everyone!
- No, but it says it's used by non-Asian people. - Oh...
- We're Asian, so... okay sorry, I didn't read that, okay. - Oh sorry, yes!
- It's okay then. It's fine. - Yeah yeah yeah.
Ling Ling is still here today!
I think Bing is missing the point.
- The point is if you practice 40 hours a day... - Yes.
- that's all that matters. - Yes.
On that note, Ling Ling 40 Hours...
- Oh, I guess our whole Subreddit is racist! - Oh no, this whole thing is racist!
- We gotta change the name! - Yeah!
291 thousand racist people!
- Oh bro! - Oh no!
Guys, what do you think we should change the Subreddit to?
- Ling Ling is officially racist. - We should change the cover to something else, like...
- Bing Bing 40 Hours! - "Bing Bing 40 Hours", yeah!
