My thoughts? You asked…

Wrong community, pal. Post music you like. Where's the music? I personally would've preferred this or this instead of this hour-and-a-half-ish "Human talks at camera then video ends" video.

At [email protected] I wanna hear Franz Schubert, I don't wanna hear about Franz Schubert.

~~I see you've ~~spammed~~ crossposted this video to six different communities. Do you have skin in it?~~

EDIT 20:33 CEST: My mistake. I assumed you'd crossposted to six different communities but I see the video has been crossposted by different users.

Then you probably want this playlist by the same guy, with the actual music:

I watched the video a few weeks ago and it’s great. It’s an explanation of why authentic music is so hard to come by and how shallow the popular alternatives are.

Thanks, oh blustery one, for that avalanche of authentic Azerbaijani audio. I'm listening to it as I write this reply. I say this sincerely: Music, like food, is one of the few things in life that can bring all peoples together, regardless of politics or dogma.

Just in case anyone has still missed the point, my only objection to this post is that it's not music. It's about music, the item in question ironically containing very little actual music. As our sidebar sez—etched centuries ago by the community elders 🤣 —post music and save the documentaries for the appropriate communities.
