I spend a lot of time looking up prog videos on YT and the comments range from awesome to asinine. Here we can post the best, and worst, comments we find on the Tube.

Here are some of my favorites:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a73XLkf43-s
Magma performing De Futura
Comment : "Vander can make as many funny faces as he wants, because, when he does, he's communicating with some sort of spirit from Kobaļa that makes him automatically five billion times more awesome than you." -birchofacookie

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bc33hYdaYtg
King Crimson performing Waiting Man
Comment : "Robbert Fripp: guitarist-magician-sound painter, emperor of the realm of modern music

Andrew Belew: transcendental lyric freak and multiinstrumentalist, the archetype of a musical personality

Bill Brufford: No description possible, only one comment : He left Yes because their music was becoming too simple for him... There are signs of him having 2 brains

Tony Levin: Bald bass badass, a rhythmical and tonal genius, rumors say he is a cyborg sent from the future to destroy bad music forever" -alarihos81

Surely there are more, but this should get things started...

Glad to see this thread is so popular...

Watching/listening to Zappa's Titties and Beer :

"The best musicians in the world playing the worst music in the world. this guy was an incredible musician but his music and voice suck big time except for a few novelty comedy songs - I dont care how good the snare sound on Joe's Garage sound the music sucks - Comedy and intricate jazz fusion is a bad mix

He had a great sense of humor but that doesn't trasnslate into memorable music - Everybody who played with him made better music without him"


Entitled to their opinion? Sure. Do I agree, absolutely not.

Most people know better than to read YouTube comments.

"MAKES ME WANT TO RIP MY NIPPLES OFF AND FIGHT A MOUNTIN"

I have no idea why, but I remember this comment from months ago.

It's not that the time is so long. I've wasted far, far more time than that. The point is that I will be choosing to do something that I know for certain will be a waste of time. And that is just dumb.

Well then post some shi**y ones. This thread isn't reserved for just good comments....

Listen, I agree with you guys who do not read comments on TY. It is not like I scroll down and read every post. But when viewing a video, especially when it is just music to an album cover, it is hard to ignore those 1-2 top rated comments.

Stop taking sh*t so seriously, if you read a comment on YT and find some funny or asinine then come here and post. If you do not read comments on YT, please do not post in a thread called YouTube comments... your opinions have been noted.
