Hearted Youtube comments on Rick Beato (@RickBeato) channel.

  1. Anytime I’m in a restaurant or a store where they play some generic “pop” playlist, all I can hear is the pitch corrected vocals. There’s lots of modern music made with little or no autotune, but it seems you can’t have a top 40 hit these days without over use of autotune.

  2. Imagine being able to listen to something you created when you were a teenage musician and not being horribly embarrassed by it.

  3. Huge congrats Rick. You’re an inspiration, and it’s so incredible to see artists of this stature on your channel.

  4. Rick, whoever is doing the lighting and color grading on your videos is killing it. Looks great.

  5. Rick is true pro interviewer. Always let's his guests talk, never interrupts, never directs the interview back to himself, and doesn't compete with his guest. I always enjoy his interviews and always come away feeling I learnt a lot about his guest.

  6. Rick needs to be THE guy who interviews all musicians. He is the only person who can give substance and understanding to a conversation. He is the guy that we all want to be speaking on our behalf and I, as the viewer, feel so proud to be connected to him, even if it is vicariously on social media. A truly brilliant interview.

  7. Not only is Rick Beato interviewing artists and musicians with wonderful questions, revealing their world of insight and creative processes. He's creating an historic library for the next generations to explore.

  8. The difference between you and most youtubers (aside from being a compelling person, great production value, etc.) is you're drawing from a deep well of personal experience. You can relate to experts in the craft and are actually interested in knowing the answers to your questions. Most people look at being an online personality as a way to make money - you're like a professor and student at the same time - no reason for it to ever get old as long as there are new questions to ask.

  9. Let's all appreciate that we have Beato, Abasi, Hensen, and Mansoor along with their opinions in the palm of our hands for free.........

  10. Please interview Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson, together, I'm sure it would be a hoot!
    3200
  11. Thank you for jamming the track Rick! You're the man!!!
    3200
  12. This isn't just another interview; it's an important documentation of jazz history. You are doing good work, Rick Beato. Please keep it up.

  13. Rick Beato discussing "The Gilmour Effect" with...David Gilmour. These are the moments we live for, folks, savor this!
    3100
  14. It's OK Rick! I teach 46 music students at my school each week and NONE of them are interested in learning any of the current pop music! Every one of them is learning the great older music that you usually talk about. There is still hope!!

  15. There won't be many more of these law suits, because judging by Rick's top 20 rundown, no one is actually writing pop songs anymore.

  16. Rick: "I'm gonna call Seal and ask him." Me: 😳😮😲
    2900
  17. RIck, I want to thank you for asking the right questions, and allowing me to give as complete an answer as I could!! Let's do that again...
    2900
  18. And Rick Beato has the most recognizable air drums technique
    2900
  19. This is how I keep up with pop music. With Rick Beato's videos, and I wouldn't have it any other way. Let's go!
    2900
  20. One of Ricks superpowers is to be able to listen to autotune 23 minutes straight without imploding.
    2900
  21. With all due respect and esteem for your achievements, personally, everything you explain, say and present in each video is of great value even if you had never sold a copy of a record: you talk about music and not necessarily about business and I fully share your enthusiasm and your vision of music of which you speak with obvious tremendous competence. Thank you for everything you do and give here.

  22. Hey dear friend, I know you probably won't see this. But as a fellow YouTuber who goes through this constantly (and wins), I would like to pose an opposing view: given your stature in the industry, could it be time to start disputing these claims? Before you dismiss this outright, consider that given your huge fanbase, you could be the one who makes a difference here. I know it sounds like a major hassle, but it's really not that difficult and I would be happy to share the language my lawyer drafted up so you can use it. Now I know that the reason you don't file disputes is because you want the artist to get paid which is quite noble. But the reason that I'm suggesting an alternative course here is that the record companies are quite terrified of this actually going to court. Not only do you have a completely valid claim for fair use, but if they decide to take you to court and you demonstrate fair use, they are open to HUGE liabilities in anti-SLAPP lawsuits (strategic lawsuits against public participation--basically lawsuits that are designed to prevent the powerful from intimidating you into censoring yourself). Honestly, if they were foolish enough to issue a takedown and file a claim against you, they could potentially get hurt so badly they would never do so again. You are a giant in this field Rick, consider that you might have the power in this case to make things better for others out there. Warm regards, Matt Ramsey

  23. Rick anticipating the chord changes before they happen must be the best advertising for his ear training course ever! Way to go, Rick!

  24. This might be of help - I've gotten a copyright strike once and when you go to dispute section there should be an email contact of someone who is in charge of that particular copyright. I wrote them an e-mail and explained myself, I was doing something similar to you, talking about a certain live performance and teaching people about singing a song like that through that example. I apologized for not asking for permission, asked nicely if they would be kind enough to remove the strike, told them that I am willing to delete the video, or if they agree, they can leave the video up but demonetized it. In a few days I got the response - apology accepted and that I should send the ID of the video that got the strike. Miraculously, they removed the strike, allowed the video to get published and even agreed to - shared revenue. So that dispute function can really be helpful, I actually use it often for blocked videos. Sometimes they respond and say that it is still blocked but I never got a strike after they disagreed with me - so that's a good thing. In most cases, nobody response, and after 30 days the video is fully up and all the revenue goes to me because they failed to respond withing the time period they have to response (which is 30 days). After that I think they can't demonetize it, block it, or anything later. Hope this is helpful, I know how much that sucks...

  25. A mother’s choice to sacrifice a weeks pay for her son quite possibly led to millions of people learning more about music 30 years later.
    2700
  26. You’re a national treasure Rick! Looking forward to new videos!
    2700
  27. Great video mate, I love your passion and explanation of this stuff 👌🏻🤘🏻
    2600
  28. I would say they clearly agree with you about it being lifted if they chose to share the writing credits with Dagny, b/c you know they wouldn't cut someone else in on the money unless they felt they really had to. So they knew they weren't going to get away with it and just nipped it in the bud by sharing the writing credit.

  29. "American musician and YouTube personality Rick Beato has analysed the chord structure of the song in a video titled "The Most COMPLEX Pop Song of All Time".'[4]" someone already edited the song's wiki page saying you've reviewed it
    2600
  30. Thank you for the mention and kind words Rick! Means a lot!
    2600
  31. A Beato, an albino, a mosquito, my libido...Yeah, hey!
    2600
  32. You're Killin' Me Rick!!! Ha ha ha this is great. You are putting out some of the best "rea"l musical content on the internet. This is definitely NOT "low information" ha ha ha ha
    2600
  33. Add this to the list of one of the best interviews.
    2500
  34. Nothing gives me joy quite like watching Rick crank out some Meshuggah riffs
    2500
  35. When you think you can't like a song any more, and Beato points out some things you've missed for decades... Thanks man!
    2500
  36. The grammys are basically what the Oscars would be if they just nominated every marvel movie for picture of the year. How its considered the pinnacle of music is beyond me. It's just something record companies can use to market their pop stars. "GRAMMY AWARD WINNING" GRAMMY NOMINATED" It's dumb and means nothing to me.

  37. A very important post, Rick. I've got tinnitus, and hearing loss, as do many of my contemporaries from the 60's and 70's. Sting has it, Jeff Beck, Eric Clapton, Pete Townsend, Hughie Lewis, the list is endless. If you're a youngster reading this and are not yet afflicted, do yourself a favor and protect your hearing by whatever means necessary.

  38. George is the greatest…total respect for the amazing man. No one has come close to him. I first saw him live at the State theater in Sydney in 1976, with his iconic Breezin’ band I was 17. I was so completely blown away I could not speak for several hours afterwards. Such a warm and gracious man too. First time I met was in Sydney. I was playing with my band at the Basement club. He called me out of the blue, I thought it was a prank by one of my band mates but it was him. He said “I heard your album Thinking Out Loud” and invited me to the Hilton downtown where he was playing the ballroom in a few nights time. We hung out for a few hours and he played my album and pointed out all the things he liked in real time. I’ll never forget that day. Then a day later he came early to my show and stayed for 2 full shows. I of course acknowledged his presence to the audience. He invited me to his show and somewhere in the middle of his show he acknowledged me to his audience. I was so surprised that he did that. He certainly didn’t have to. That just shows you the character of this kind and gracious man. I have seen him in concert many times over the years and always go backstage after to say “George, you are the greatest” because he his. ♥️♥️♥️😎🙏🙏🙏🎸🎸🎸☀️☀️☀️ Frank G

  39. Dear Sir Paul: If you’re reading this, please let Rick interview you. Thank you.

  40. This is a case where someone reveals all the magician's tricks, and the magic becomes even more astounding.
    2400
  41. Can we appreciate the fact that Rick nails every single note in a Frampton solo and makes it look easy? Great work, my man.
    2300
  42. Just so refreshing.... in an ADHD world, the fact that Rick can put up a 102 minute video and have us all watch it is nothing short of an astounding tribute to how good his content really is.... I've said it before.... Interviewing these rock legends in such a relaxed, conversational format is priceless! Thank you, Rick and to all of your guests for making the time to do all of this!
    2300
  43. I majored in music in college, so I knew all this. Just wanted to point out it's spot on AND...you get it here for free :-) I had to pay $80K to learn this haha! Thanks for sharing your knowledge!!!

  44. Robbie Buchanan posted this on FB: "Rick Beato made this video about "Never Gonna Let You Go," a Sergio Mendes cover of a great Barry Mann/Cynthia Weil song. He calls it "the most complex song ever." His tutorial is hysterical. Rick's facial expressions on the "new" chords as they come up are priceless. Go, Rick. you're awesome;). You even picked up on the Gb/C7 in the fade! (I actually snuck that one in on the date) "This is actually an arrangement I am quite proud of. "btw, I remember the day we recorded the song in the small room at Kendun Recorders in Burbank. it was so small that JR, Nate (East), Paul Jackson JR and myself were all in a tiny circle facing each other....no more than 4-6 feet away from each other. I had done the arrangement the day before and, for the rundown, they recorded it. THAT was the track. it was just one of those days when everyone was on...no fixes or punch-ins. Then Joe (Pizzulo) sang a "rough" vocal right after. THAT was the final lead too!!! crazy huh?"

  45. You're not just a music teacher, or creating music appreciation, you're a good storyteller and a good orator . Thats a big reason for your success.
    2200
  46. I do envy you. Not because of David Gilmour, but because you’re truly having the time of your life. Your eyes spark happiness. Spot on Rick, just spot on. Very well done, everything.
    2200
  47. Love seeing Mary here in person, I know she's in US but didn't know she was gonna be visiting you. Awesome seeing my favourite music YouTubers doing collabs like this, hope there will be more!
    2200
  48. Yes, please Rick. Make this series a permanent thing!
    2200
  49. Omg, this is the best video on YouTube ever! My favorite song analysed by Brian May himself and my favorite YouTuber!
    2100
  50. What a rare privilege to be able to witness this interview with the incomparable Jimmy Webb. You're performing such a service for the community of musicians and music-lovers everywhere, Rick. So appreciated.
