Dad is in town and we are doing a special surprise video for you guys next week. I was trying to upload it this week, but we had a few apartment emergencies (including laptop death) so I was delayed. I'm sorry, but I hope you guys have an amazing weekend nonetheless. If there's any q's by the way you have for my dad, please let me know in my messages.

You've heard about it, let's talk about it. Bradley Cooper has been charged with antisemitism. I, the official authority on these matters, delve into the situation and pull out the truth!!!! I know it seems like a depressing topic, but I find it kinda funny. I hope you can too. Happy weekend!

Iam Tongi covers one of my favorite Bonnie Raitt songs here, but before he does, he gets some not so great advice. I react to the advice and the song. Then, since we were in the mood, I listen to the original version JUST for you guys. So, I hope you like love songs, cuz this is a great one. Hope your week is going great!

I was at a friends party last weekend, and people asked me what I thought of the Speak Now stuff, and I said I hadn't done it yet .... and they were shocked (I mention this in the video). Anyway, I have heard from many of you and people on YT that this is the next thing you wanted to hear. So here it is. Enjoy the haircut, now let's get groovin ...
I'm baaaaaaack!!!!!! Yes, I know I haven't done a Marcin video in a minute, but people have been clamoring. Also, I am in my new apartment now, no it's not completely setup, we're going to have a better backdrop soon, but I missed ya and wanted to get back to shooting. So stay tuned, many new videos and patreon exclusives coming soon! Hope you're having a great week. Happy weekend! See you soon...

Hey kids. I am finally moved! New videos coming next week. Thank you soooo much for bearing with me and being patient. I am just able to get my office setup going today, so I'll be able to start shooting and responding to messages soon. Hope you're having an amazing week.
To tide you over, here is a picture of Groucho finally settling down after a very emotional move.

Hey, I'm still moving! I recorded this last week. It's a little story about the worst, and then maybe ultimately the best, moments on stage of my life. Hope you enjoy!

Iam Tongi (this time, pronounced better) is back! This is actually the second performance, I believe, from the show. So please forgive me. Yes, it comes with tears. This is a famous old standard that they had him sing, and yet again he knocks it outta the park. In my opinion, let me know what you think. Hope your week is going great!

I've loved this song for as long as I can remember. It is truly brave of him to attempt his own version of it, and to do it in his own way ... well, I'll let you listen. This song means a lot to a lot of people, so if he can help extend its legacy, I think that's a great thing. Happy weekend!

Well, he says racist things ... ironically. So, yeah ... basically, since he accomplishes the same thing as many racist people do. But, he's really more of an "edgelord". And as he is now dating Taylor Swift, and people are upset about it, I thought I'd look at his history of controversial statements and see what the difference is between the two. Keep in mind, I am not so much defending him he...

So this one is a journey. I had no idea who Glen Campbell was OR that he was such an amazing singer and guitarist. This performance really blew me away, though I'm mad at myself for not recognizing Roy Clark. If you're having trouble with the patreon app, please use the link below.

Hey, so I know this is not music related, but it is related to a lot of the discussion we've had on the channel about loss, losing your mom, and how to recover. It's short and I think you might find it interesting. Again, there is NO BASEBALL in this video. Hope you enjoy.

People have been requesting both this song, and that I sing again at the top of my videos. Well, here both of them are. This is my first "The National" reaction. It takes some twists and turns, but ultimately I think it is a really well-constructed song. Not sure if everyone will interpret the lyrics exactly as I did, but who knows. Music is meant to be analyzed, but never agreed upon. So, hope...

It's an update from me after finally getting some needed info. I will put the vimeo link in this description, but I need to fill up more so it doesn't get posted as part of the "TEXT PREVIEW" there, that should do it.

We haven't had a good cry together in a while. But all that's over now, after this young man, Iam Tongi, performed on American Idol. I just kinda tried this video on a whim, and wow ... I don't want to say too much. I hope you watch, cuz this video cuts deep. Hope your week is going well, happy weekend!

Ok, so I caved and watched some footage from Coachella performance. Ocean "enraged" a lot of people when he abruptly cancelled his show last week. But did he have a good excuse? Ultimately I gotta say I wish I could've seen the show myself. Hope you're having a great week! Enjoy!

Okay ... so this is a big week for Swifties. Hope you're doing okay. This song was written specifically about Joe Alwyn, and so I figured it would be a perfect fit for this week's choice. This is kind of a controversial video for Swifties, as well as being controversial as a song and now obviously with the breakup ... anyway, it's a lot. Took a bit to edit, so I hope you enjoy, everyone. Let me...

We've had a lot of intense topics recently, so let's try something fun and easy. Here is my reaction to Dhar Mann's busking video. I LOOOOOVED this video and had an amazing time watching it, I hope you do too.
Also, I just got some good news, which I will be sharing early next week with you, my lovely patrons! Till then, happy weekend!

Ok folks, you asked for it, you got it. We get into the Mayer / Swift relationship which was brought up in Woulda, Coulda, Shoulda. I ended up going down the rabbit hole as well as reacting to the live version of the song. Thanks for the suggestion. Sorry this one is later in the week, but it took me forever to edit this one. Hope you enjoy :) Happy friday!

Marcin is back! And this is his Moonlight Sonata. I love finding artists like this, he mixes eastern and Spanish influences with the original work, and absolutely iconifies (maybe not a word) his own version as well as the already iconic original. Incredible performance, hope you enjoy. Happy Thursday!

ok, so many people have let me know about what I got wrong in my most recent video. And then a friend, who has Lyme disease herself, told me she found out Ren has it too. So I did a deep dive into Ren's Illness, his road to recovery and how he's doing now. Hope you enjoy!

WARNING: This song deals with some real stuff, including abusive relationships. It is incredible, and it doesn't titilate or try to overwhelm you with harmful imagery, but it does get into some pretty adult themes. Ren is a tremendously talented young artist and I am INCREDIBLY excited to see where his career continues to take him. This song is really an opera, it has multiple parts, multiple c...

B-b-b-b ... BONUS song! Hey folks, so this is a bonus track, but it is also THE most requested track from the ones I haven't done yet on Midnights. This song discusses some tough subjects, especially if you've ever been in a May-December romance. Hope you enjoy! Happy weekend!
