thelondoner Clayderman? Well, it makes me smile a bit. He is good, ok, but calling him "the best pianist of all times" is a bit silly in my opinion. Personally I think Liszt will always be the best pianist ever existed. He revolutionized the piano technique and wrote the...

Why is Big Note Piano Sheet Music Only Available for Easy Piano?

Pigglies @Pigglies (9329) • United States 8 Sep 07

I've always found it easier to play from big note piano books. But not just because the songs are easier, but because it is far easier to read the huge notes and my eyes don't get confused with that. Why can't some of the...

thelondoner I think the reason is the same why they don't usually do normal books written in big characters unless they're for children. Anyway, what do you mean when you say "reading two lines together"? If you've read piano music for 15 years it shouldn't be difficult...

sarahruthbeth22 @sarahruthbeth22 (43143) • United States 11 Oct 07

thelondoner Oh, I would definitely not play for my favorite composers. I would never be good enough. But if I had the chance to take lessons from Liszt or Brahms or Gershwin...

thelondoner Have you ever touched a keyboard before? If you didn't, I think it will take you at least one or two years just to master the basics (I mean the simplest chords and a very little improvising), unless you're a genius obviously. If you plan to play alone, it...

Have You Ever Spent A Night In A Cemetary?

Deborah L. Alten @gtargirl (5376) • United States 15 Oct 07

Well, I'm not proud of this but when I was 16 I ran away from home (that's a whole other discussion). Long story short, I found myself spending the night in an old cemetary. There was a little abandoned train station house nearby...

Do You Feel Sorry/Bad For Britney Spears?

theVacuous1 @theVacuous1 (253) • United States 16 Oct 07

thelondoner When you're famous and thousands (maybe millions in this case) of teenagers idolize you, you'd better be a positive example. If you're not, the press not only can, but MUST criticize you. When you accept to become a worldwide star, you must consider all of the...

Do you miss a guitar in Keane's music?

Vashuzinho @Vashuzinho (21) • Brazil 22 Aug 07

I don't miss at all, Tim's piano do all the work and it's fantastic. Richard is one hell of a drummer as well, and well, I guess I don't need to say about Tom's voice!

thelondoner Neither do I, piano and keyboards are used excellently and replace guitars perfectly. Songs are just great, I can't help listening to them specially when I'm in the car, they're the best soundtrack for my journeys. I think they're really talented, it's not...

When You Travel, Do You Try to Talk to the Locals?

wondericequeen @wondericequeen (7876) • Hong Kong 30 Sep 07

thelondoner The glass is unquestionably half- empty. But still, my friends wouldn't say that I'm a pessimist at all. I'm a very funny and sunny person. I am an optimist about everyday life (and a dreamer too), but if I think of the world, of human condition, of death... I...

Would you buy a stolen phone?

meemingNEW @meemingNEW (2226) • Philippines 29 Sep 07

thelondoner I'm afraid I could be able to do it, especially if I really want that phone and the price is REALLY good (I mean, if it's only half-priced it's not enough yet)... Obviously I wouldn't buy it if I knew for sure that it was stolen. But if someone offered me a...
