Kind of true though. I have a friend that was always really good at art. He's in college, but it's super expensive.

"I covered [Mozart] in one of my previous Pokemon videos. Might sound weird if you're new to the channel." The fact this didn't phase me until he pointed it out is the hidden gem of this video.
But he made up for it a bit: The music playing at the end of the video while he says that is "Clair de lune" one of the best pieces by Debussy a french composer. Really beautiful piece for piano.
Fun fact: When someone appears on a piece of Ancient Greek pottery with a lyre, it’s probably because the painting is depicting a play of that story event and not the story itself

It's insane how Killian manages to make an extremely compact and comprehensive while still totally correct run-down of the most essential parts of the history of music and then distorts his nice summary with the Killian jokes that we know and love, which improves the experience so much :D I'm so happy I found your channel back when I got recommended your Stardew-Valley garbage guide while I was trying to actually find out how the garbage bins work in that game, best accidental find ever :D
Hey Kilian, I haven't watched your videos in like 2-3 years but this one caught my interest as I've spent at least 6 weeks studying music too and I have to say that this is one of the most enjoyable videos I've seen on your channel so far! Also your different accents were also very enjoyable lol
Surprised you didn't mention paganini, the guy who was accused of selling his soul to the devil for his violin skills. Also died broke because he gambled away all his money.
When I first saw the name of the video, I thought “The complete history of music in 30 minutes? Yeah, as if...”. Then I saw that red panda face, now I’m a believer.
yo rt can we take a minute and talk about how Killian can perfectly imitate accents in a language that is not his first? specifically accents in a second languagr that imitate other languages. like i feel we're all sleeping on this guys linguistic proficiency

It will happen.
Genuinely better than the class I took on art history in college. I'm dead serious, this is way more interesting.
Maybe that’s just art college being dull though
this is more interesting than existing tbh
It does go through a surprising amount of important points in history. Like I'm impressed by Killian.
I suppose there's no other reason you'd take a class in art history lmao
There's no point to taking art history unless if you're going to become a museum curator, and museums are always boring.
"Punk died 5 minutes later."
I feel attacked.

Nice lecture on prohibition, but the video is about music
“And Wagner never shared his opinion on anything ever” - This killed me 😂
That was quite funny but some people might think that Wagner and Verdi were really roommates. My seven year old loves watching videos on the history of classical music and takes this whole video quite literally.
reference to the fact that he was an anti-semite

here's a fake. a poopoo head. someone who spells 'kilian' with two Ls. that guy was executed in prison
The part with Verdi and Wagner is my favourite. I love how Killian couldn't help holding a laugh while singing the Valkyrie theme.
I was born in the wrong generation. I wish I was born when "My Girl GOT THAT MAMMOTH BOOTY" was made. People back then had much better taste

Now, when will Kilian do a documentary on the Entire History of Animation/Cartoons?
The Verdi/Wagner exchange is incredible.
It is also 200% correct, we have the documents to prove it, after all.
20:20 "a musician didn't do this, a painter did"

Wow the bit with Confucius and Mencius saying music is good while Mozi calls it evil is 100% accurate and have solid textual evidences.
Beethoven: "I just want to make easy music for piano students or whatever" Hands down the most hurtful bit of the video
You forgot the greatest musician of all time: K. K. Slider.

Did Luke from OutsideXbox brainwash you or something?
That thicc italian accent in the Italy part was spot on, reminds me of the japanese when they sold the rights for Digimon to 4kids
Of course Kilian was at the last supper, he's witnessed every important event in history.
"Why would anyone want quality when you can have crazy frog"
Wait there's a difference?
"Random glimpses of hope..."
Dragostea Din Tei? Just a glimpse of hope? I'd say that was the savior of music.

Feels disrespectful to even call it a song. Whole different universe. Perfection perfected
