Nov 27, 2008 - Sukoiiii ทำไมเมืองไทยไม่มีงี้มั่งฟละ..

Sakuyababy Says:

Nov 27, 2008 - ..... Star Wars on shamisen...?! THAT SHOULD NEVER HAPPEN. Yoshida Brothers are amazing.... like Miyavi said, shamisen is the original japanese guitar.

DrCelo Says:

Nov 27, 2008 - They are pretty awesome :-D

cosmicarainia Says:

Nov 27, 2008 - well it happened! And no shamisen is not the original Japanese guitar, it's just a shamisen. It's autonomous.

Sakuyababy Says:

Nov 28, 2008 - *Eyerolls* Good god, I'm Japanese for fucksake, of course I know what the hell it is. It was a COMMENT that was based off of a famous quote from a famous rockstar, not something to make you give me a lesson on it. I'm VERY well aware of what it is. I'm just saying the Yoshida brothers are better with their original songs than someone playing Star Wars with the instrument that has run through my father's country's history.

cosmicarainia Says:

Nov 28, 2008 - you can go wipe now!

shamisendemon Says:

Nov 28, 2008 - OK Sakuyababy. This is Kevin Kmetz. omai no kimochi wa wakaru . But there is something about me that you do not know. I am NOT someone playing with the instrument from your Fathers country. I am an American but grew up in Aomori ken close to Tsugaru where Tsugaru Shamisen comes from. I never moved to America until after I was 18. and just so you know STAR WARS was the labels idea, not mine. You can say anything you want AFTER you have heard my CD. I believe it will surpass your expectations!

shamisendemon Says:

Nov 28, 2008 - and I'm Kevin's wife too.

Sakuyababy Says:

Nov 28, 2008 - I didn't mean to offend your little friend... But, I'm in the worst mood, and I didn't need a lecture. I was quoting Miyavi, certainly you would know who he is. 僕の一番好きな音楽は三味線の歌。。。Wait. アホか？ It's Omae... not Omai. And I will love to listen... but not to Star Wars.

shamisendemon Says:

Nov 28, 2008 - domo Sakuayababy. And cosmicarainia is my wife (I am shamisendemon)just to clear that up. We are on the same computer so our youtube accounts sometimes get mixed up. Anyway I would really like to hear your opinion once my CD is out. You may not like what I do but I would still like your criticism nonetheless. I will even send you a free copy when it comes out in jan 2009. if you want. p.s. yeah you're right. it should be Omae!

Sakuyababy Says:

Nov 28, 2008 - Mmmn.... Then I sincerely apologize for offending your wife. I didn't mean to.... I was extremely rude and that was cruel of me. If you would forgive me it would honor me greatly. I had been drinking earlier when I did speak in that manner. I would genuinely enjoy to hear the CD, and would give you proper criticism should you still feel that way at a later date.

DvClornerius Says:

Nov 28, 2008 - Aww such wonderful music. Question why does everyone try to explain,converse, or any other stupid item that has nothing to do with the video. Your comment is for the video, not personal items of your life. Just the video ^=^ ahahha stupid stupid little children! ^=^

DvClornerius Says:

Nov 28, 2008 - Play games on a forum. Lets others just enjoy comments like "this sounds great show more" and "not my taste no thank you" hehe and when you grow up into an existence outside of your computer. maybe just maybe people can stand your personality. [This was a message directed at all little people that are offended for no reason and waste space] Love, DvC

shamisendemon Says:

Nov 28, 2008 - Thanks Sakuyababy. You can write directly to my shamisendemon account next time. I appreciate your taking the time to respond. Whoever you are you have gained respect (at least right here on youtube) which would make you listening to my CD even more valuable! Anyway back to Yoshida bros!

Harukachikara Says:

Nov 28, 2008 - wonderful! whats the name of the instrument they play? o.o

unrealnumiso Says:

Nov 29, 2008 - The instrument they play is called Shamisen its an old japanese instrument (its the traditional instrument of the Geishas)

Maarijou Says:

Nov 29, 2008 - husteeeeeeeeee

himejijojoshu Says:

Nov 30, 2008 - 音楽としては新しさがない。結構退屈だ。こんな曲なら、何曲弾いても同じ。もう厭きたよ。

chau12A9 Says:

Nov 30, 2008 - このような音楽はなんか新鮮で、いいな。結構好き。I like this kind of music instrument.

amenatsuhasujinseii Says:

Nov 30, 2008 - shamisen

Lumpenproli Says:

Dec 1, 2008 - samisen - 3 stringed japanese instrument ( Geisha's playing on this)

Muguersso3 Says:

Dec 1, 2008 - Awesome!

hungrycamel Says:

Dec 1, 2008 - not just geisha :P geishas in general can play a wide variety of instruments as they're 'typically' entertainment girls back in the day.

paskadrums Says:

Dec 1, 2008 - to be exact it's a special shamisen used only in Tsugaru-jamisen genre

auvenn Says:

Dec 2, 2008 - Are there any online lessons or at least a base of the different styles for the shamisen? I couldn't find anything, but I want to know more about this instrument.
