Music is not for everyone...

Somewhere in this house somebody is trying to play Coldplay's "The scientist".
Emphasis on trying. Trying for an hour and still not getting better.
I know playing the piano/keyboard is not that easy, I've always wanted to learn how to play but never got very far...and I know from my own attempts that it's somewhat difficult to combine the left hand and the right hand movements in order to not mess up the song.

But this? It's called rhythm, dammit! You can NOT randomly strike keys and keep going. The left hand is supposed to accent certain notes created by the right hand. The song has a rhythm and a structure and yes I know I'm being mean but oh my god!!!

I like the song, I really do and it pains me to see (or hear) it being tortured like this.

Maybe I should go and find out who's playing and offer my metronome to them.

It's just that listening to messed up music really irks me...23 years of musical education are really not helping with the "just ignore it" attitude that would be in order here. *groans*
