4:20 standard violin play , even for a kid cmon

It’s real and not edited is why it catches on so much. Plus it’s about all the cloud dropping in their daily lives to enjoy such talented people and taking the time to enjoy!

...Love music live and in puplic because it created a special situation and a special group feeling,if the crowd is not too big. Somehow it change ones feelings even about the place ...I miss this concerts so much😳

Karolina Protsenko is 13 years old

Sir could you react to JESSICA VILLARUBIN'S "I SURRENDER"?🤣🤣

3:36 That guy talking is Joel (from roomie official)

Team Jenkins where u be

Try to watch sean song guitar fingertips cover from korea

Allie was 12 when she was singing Shallows.

I think its down to the idea of seeing it done in a studio although sounds better when they play in the street give far more character to the person and you feel like you can connect more. You realise its a real person and not just a studio.

I would say its because it feels like its more real and unedited or less chance of being faked. And maybe you can put yourself in the audience and picture yourself experience it as if you were there

maybe its just me, but i personally really like these kinds of videos and performances because it feels more magical. it's someone sharing their talent with random people in the middle of the street, you know? it feels so human compared to listening/watching a studio recording

Where is Davie

Why in public? bcs they don't have studio or money for rent sooo, they performing public and it's more stressfull and embaresing to do so. Public = no agents, no music label, working themselves, working hard to go up, no bullshit

sior

i think people like to see this type of videos to see how de audience reacts to these covers, also there is something good on these street covers, its cool

I love watching buskers in real life so Street performance videos are great cause it’s as close as I can get while in quarantine. I also like to see a single person is just that skilled to play that live in one take, whether it’s just an instrumental or vocal or both and the confidence that it takes. I like the imperfect acoustics because it makes it feel more raw, more like a regular person whose talented than a professional performer. Like for me it’s all about it being raw rather than produced and artificial, like my favorite busking videos are a single singer with an acoustic instrument. Maybe a microphone, nothing more. Possibly without an instrument or a “proper” instrument (like the bucket guy from Vegas). (Also Timbre is pronounced TAMber)

Roomie! You should do another of these, but react to the band called "Brothers Moving"! They busk an AMAZING cover of Roxanne!

anyone else think DOVYDAS looks a little like Jonas? could be related?

I usually watch these types of videos for self boost in confidence to know not to care of what others think and 'go get em'

I think people like these kind of videos more because they are relatable. It’s something “anyone” could do with practice rather than in a big professional studio. Actually, looking at these kind of videos got me into playing piano.

Favorite performance is moon shakers beat boxing video

alan walker yay!!!

10:58 so is it cold in this country or not ? I mean some wear really warm coats and scarf and then others wear just a t-shirt. I need answers

People like public live performances because they like seeing live reactions

I think it’s the risk and authenticity of live music

As a pianist I can't listen to those live piano performances. The piano is way to much out of tune...

Joel: Impressed by the actual piano playing Me: How'd they get the piano over there

You should do a reaction to yungblud or mgk's new album " tickets to my downfall"

Its the live reaction man. That's why we watch.

A great way to get used to playing in public and practice new stuff on an audience.

I love that people who have to perform, they just have to! And I love an impromptu little concert!

They are all i listen to and know roomie is reacting them its like he is stealing my watch history

4:35 Is that dang Matt Smith playing the piano?

I never watched SIOR anyway.

I think the weird thing that makes live better than studio for some reason is either because performing in public says something about the performer's confidence or at least their willingness to put themselves out there which I think is a curious thing for most people that tend to fall into the category of "I could never do that" kind of thinking, or because live public performances have the opportunity to showcase those moments when music can be an unsaid, universally understood moment of connection between complete strangers and that connection can cross all the borders of age, identity, or language. Those moments of unity I think are what give people goosebumps because it feels authentic or unplanned. That's my theory.

I love that a bunch of the musical youtubers all know each like a lil community

I love the little girl😍😍😍😘😘😘 she is so talented and so cute

I would love to see Roomie react to Pentatonix covers, especial Radioactive.

I think it has something to do with seeing them do it live without any way to fake it in the studio

I like how all the people here commented

EXCUSE ME WHERE IS @Davie504

every verified musicians:

Plz reacth to morrisete amon rise up

check out too many Zooz dude :)

Daniele is the legend of Naples, Italy

@Roomie, Live videos because it's natural and real. That's the attracting musical aspect, the other part is the live reactions from passing pedestrians. Doing the same thing but in a studio is not something to watch, but to listen to, and people go to spotify or apple music for listening. C:

i feel like the street performances are so popular because they are more "real", you just feel more connected to that person and knowing that someday you can also witness some in-real-life talent on the streets makes you appreciate it more. at least that's how i think it works

Wow... So right before I pressed play, I was so mad at the world. But RoomieOfficial’s video helped me calm down because it was a great distraction. RoomieOfficial, the distracter. In a good way!

Personally I feel like street performances are more raw than studio. You know it's the real deal when you're standing right in front of the performer.

I wants was walking home through a tunnel and a guy was there playing on his saxophone, he was so good that we wanted to give him some money. Turned out he was just practicing there because his neighbors complained of him being to loud. That was funny.

Joel: why am i so bad with words Me: probably because you're from sweden

i dont want sior to come back, purely based on the intro

Joel i think you need to do some street performances and you will understand

He sed the most worst songs so he is saying you are bad

Twoset would see the violinist and be like : INTERESTING, SACRILEGIOUS

Twoset!

If I some kid playing or a girl singing...I wouldn't watch but give me a sax I took it back 10:04💗

I love me some sax

Your sub count is 6.96 subs lol

Says 12 year old Mia and he then says she’s probably 14

Its because youtube shoves this kind of content down peoples throats. Not these are bad videos but i do little to make it seem like im interested in live performances but i see it all the time in my recommended

Good make more

4:18-5:02 I looooove her hair

No, Roomie. You're thinking on the visual part of the video but people don't play this to watch the video tens of times, it's the repeatability of the audio. You play songs multiple times at a time. It's sort of like your channel, I repeat the same video with a different title everyday

Do some jamaican music I wonder would go

That black piano man is Dajgmattsmith

why we love public performance more than studio? becuz there's no edit/autotune, I mean it feels real

I bought LingLing insurance, they can’t criticize me 😅

It's interesting because more is at stake and the feeling of anything could happen, in the studio you can have as many takes as you want. When it's live there are no retakes and its mote impressive because othere are nerves unvolved and other people's reactions which can't be predicted or controlled

9:01 I think the reason is the people reaction

Maybe because it's a raw performance

Timbre: "tam-br"

Ren is amazing. He's just something different, deffinatelly check him out

Ren and Sam wooop woop

I was thinking why people like it and mabey it is the reactoin.

I absolutely love Karolina!! She is incredible! But to answer your question, when someone is singing or playing in public in a video, it's real and genuine, it is also different, every single time compared to listening to the studio artist every single time you listen to a studio song. Whereas the 100s of other covers are all different, they're real, and seeing them in public with fans feels like a concert to me haha and we all love concerts...I think. Plus, sometimes covers are better than the original.

I think it’s the average Joe effect. Similar to draw of talent shows like the Voice/Got talent. What I mean is often times these people seem like a regular average person, undiscovered. It seems more authentic. I think more production gives the impression that it’s “produced” and “manufactured” and not real. Which isn’t always the case either way: street performances are not always undiscovered, spontaneous, amateur talent, and just because something has been produced doesn’t mean it lacks authenticity.

I think these videos are a big thing because its interesting to see other people who are as amazed as you are by the performances. I like seeing peoples reactions as well. Its a good reminder that musicians are real people too and yes it can sound good even if its not in studio. Uh not as artificial if you will. (I know studio music isn't artificial but its not raw like this.)

His lips be looking crusty

It's because it's physical proof that the person can perform the music with their own ability alone. While production has come along so far that a ton of stuff is possible and sounds great compared to old recordings. But that same thing is why old recordings stand up, it's the thought that " these guys are just standing in a room playing this", it didn't take a hundred takes cut and pasted together, they didn't pitch anything up or down so it fit, they had to be loud enough to be heard over background noise and stay on key. It's impressive, while I might vibe to a recorded version of something, I'm extremely impressed at what people can do live. I wish people did more live covers instead of filming it like it is and then lip syncing.

Please react to "2020 em uma musica"(2020 in a song) from Inutilismo, he is amazing and I'm sure you'll love it!

Am an 😡 man 😂

I just miss the SIOR song!

I watch your videos, because you are the only person who "talks" with me about music. We have arguments though, and you never want to hear my fav songs, but it's still better than nothing.

Joel, it's simple. If you can do it live, you can do it anywhere, but you can't always do what you did in studio live. It's like you're proving you've got talent, it's raw, it's real, it's not just studio production

so was i the only one who noticed dang matt smith playing the piano with the girl playing the violin like hello?!?!? it's dang matt smith

"Why cant i make a video like that and get 20mil views" Meanwhile: This vid gets 234 mil views so far XD

I’m just a sucker for a live piano playing in public 😩😂

You need to bring back Slap It On Reddit but you should make a remix of the SIOR theme

Because audience already films him Joel. Get your shit together

I watch it because is kinda unique and spontaneous and not edited like in studio versions. street performances are special

I love Daniel vitale sax 🎷

I think these videos have more views because we can actually see the real talent instead of the autotuned sounds in studios

Cause it's live.

For the violin covers, especially the Radioactive one, I got Lindsey vibes. Unfortunately, the Radioactive cover by Lindsey Stirling and Pentatonix is so good it's hard to not compare.

DangMattsmith can play the piano?!

You forgot dr.k pianist street player he's really good he draws a crowd all the time

I think the live performance not only allows for genuine interactions but also proves the performer has an actual talent too & isn't relying (heavily) on a program or settings to get them through the performance.

I think when live performances are done well and it’s actually live and not lip synced, it shows the raw talent of the artist. With studio recordings, you never know how much has been altered to make the vocals sound a certain way.
