I miss Victor so much. In the 1970s, 80s and 90s he would pop up as a guest on TV shows at the weekend in the UK. He was an amazing pianist but a brilliant comic also. So very talented and so very much missed.
Those of you who didn't have the opportunity to see Victor Borge live, there is plenty of you tube stuff. The man was one of the most talented and funny ever born. Had the honor of seeing him once, late in his career. If you find this short bit amusing, you need to see more!
Ok nobody cares. I’m 16 and I like to listen to everything from jazz to flamenco to cuban music of all tipes to peruvian guitar music to mongol throat singing and country and mariachis and some old italian songs and military anthems from Spain and Italy and some old catalan music and very old russian tunes with acordeon and argentinian and uruguayan guitar music amd boleros and all kind of stuff. But do I feel the need to come here and tell the world how classy I am? No. Do you know why? Cause it doesn’t matter and nobody cares.
@@arnaubasulto4448you sound so bitter. And no one asked you what you listen to, why feel the need to make a list and announce it to the comment section?
Oh, thank you. I do wish they'd put a trigger warning on these videos: 'Warning, this is comedy. Not for real. Do not worry.' Make the world a safer place, better for people's mental health.
@@doggycatalan If one cares to read my comment carefully, one will see that it is a response to chrisarsenault's telling us that Mr Borge wasn't actually scared, only pretending, upon which to me absurd comment, I elaborated on the absurdity, which two commentators, so far, have taken seriously. Sign of the times.
@@sandraderoubaix734well she’s a FUNNY soprano. And I mean…you can be both. Madeline Kahn..Patricia Routledge (who is a mezzo tho)..Kristin Chenoweth..not saying that you don’t think you can be both, and maybe this soprano is not a certified comedian but I just wanted to give some examples anyway😂
@@asnalelo.165 Fair enough--she is definitely both an opera singer and funny. I think the above point is that unlike some of the others you named, this soprano didn't specifically plan to be an actress or do comedy. I think after doing these bits with Victor Borge, she returned to her usual operatic work.
I think it's the one where at the end he just goes "oh will you just shut up?" or something like that 😂I remember watching this at my grandparents house during a family reunion. Good memories 😊
Been looking for this clip for a very long time I have watched over 30 videos of piano memes in the hopes of finding this and today i found it in my recommendations thank you youtube.
That's not just "any" pianist, that's Victor Borge.... comedian pianist extraordinaire. That was HIS gag. The guy was hilarious. Just search for his videos on RU-vid!
@dannydougin3925 Actually, caffeine is known to increase anxiety and adrenalin. Caffeine is stimulant. But you don't need to believe me; I am just some rando in the comments. You could look up the stimulant effects of caffeine for yourself.
When it comes to western music I like Opera the most ♥️ and then folk metal , soft rock and few pop songs of 80,90s and early 2000s Opera is music of western heaven
I heard when he was captured in WW2 by the Nazis they smashed his hands with a hammer so he could never play again. He learned to play again to spite them and show they couldn’t take that away from him.
When I lived out of state, I sent my family to Victor Borge's concert when he was in town as a gift. They fought all the way to the concert, but had fun once they got there lol. Plus they had front row seats haha.
