    I just started learning piano (at age 38), but this is the most important song ....
    in case there's a fight breaks out in a pub, and u are next to the piano... this must be played:-)

      Mikae7 no problem i start playing piano on 8 age but in 1 half mond i play every weak 1 hour so it it is not verry inportant as it looks like just focus on the song and play it again and again.

    It's the Mother of Ragtime, I believe.
    Emphasis is on the "off" beat, thus it's called, "Ragtime."
    Very wild for it's time, and young people flocked to dance "crazy" to it.
    So, playing it is a piece of history!

    Here's what Friedrich Rochlitz had to say:
    "The harmonica excessively stimulates the nerves, plunges the player into a nagging depression and hence into a dark and melancholy mood that is apt method for slow self-annihilation. If you are suffering from any nervous disorder, you should not play it[...]"
