- The Most Unwanted Song, by Komar, Melamid, and Soldier
There was a video like this by someone else that was up for some time, but it got taken down or something and I thought I'd make a new one. - Hudba
A cowgirl opera with a childrens choir that promotes walmart and various holidays then turns into an anti-imperialist protest song.
Just like a fever dream
Just now realized that there is irony in this
Based???
@@LatinaCreamQueen yes
Don’t forget there’s also bagpipes
i fucking love some of the notes the composer makes, like "everyone slams very quietly" is fucking hilarious to me
Not just slams "slams very quietly", but " slams *very quietly* ".
@@GlitchedRed oh damn, i didn't notice that! honestly the composer putting that in bold makes it even funnier
Could someone explain what "slam" means? Like is it an actual thing in music, or is it exclusively played only in this particular song?
@@Sonicbro-xx6sg When you slam in music, it means you play forcefully. What you play is generally up to the director, so you aren't just ripping off your mouthpiece and screeching at the audience.
@@GlitchedRed Is there a particular name for it or is it just called "slamming", because when I search it, even on Wikipedia they don't give me anything.

How the soprano did all of this without breaking into irrepressible fits of laughter, is entirely impressive
I think you meant to say "entire goddamn band".
@@theystoleitfromus if the band is bad,it should be sent to dad-master oogway
She probably had to do about a dozen takes
@@scottstiefel2061more like tens of thousands
the first minute i was all "hey this isnt so bad"
and then the rap started
And then you thought "Say, this really is great!"
Right? I'm over here thinking, "Oh, this isn't a shitpost it's just the name of the song", but then that happened.
i immediately started smiling and laughing
yo is it just me or i personally think that the soprano rap part slaps
I read this, thought : "the what?" And then it started.
you know its gonna be a banger when the score says "bagpipe solo but everyone plays and kids scream"
I personally felt like that part could easily come from a star wars prequel movie that was never made.
At the end of the screaming one of the kids gags
As someone who enjoys bagpipe music, I felt that
Lmao Sad cat

I submitted this to my music teacher as part of a discussion on aesthetics in music and now the whole class has to listen to it hehe
You're the hero no one asked for
Some men just want to watch the world burn.
We need an update
Update please.
Update please
My three stages of listening to this song:
1. Laughing so hard I'm nearly crying
2. "This is legitimate art"
3/final. "I feel like I just survived something somehow"
I think you left out 1 around 8 minutes in where I briefly asked myself why I was listening to this before getting to your stage 2 😂
In other words my stages went 1. Laughing uncontrollably 2. Questioning my life decisions 3. Appreciating the art 4. Wondering what I just listened to and why 😂
It's obviously a satire and a very good one
this is a god damn mastapiece GOD BLESS AMERICA HELL YEAH
Listening to this while simultaneously getting high is a hhorrible idea the tears

Yes! That would be a magical experience! Lmao
Some band should decide to tell their audience that they are going to play a very special song at the end, and play this at the end of their concert.
I would hate and love that
I'm actually about to perform in it with Dave Soldier and the orchestra at Rutgers University in June. Come out to it.
We are performing this LIVE this Sunday June 18, 2023. at Le Poisson Rouge in New York!!!! Don't miss it!!!!
I think this is somewhat good, at least because it’s played by professional musicians. Imagine what it would sound like if they got a bunch of middle school musicians were asked to sight read this and they recorded the result.
Knowing how middle school musicians sound even with practice, that would be the ultimate experience
don't give them ideas

Initially I thought that was how this was going to go.

If I recall correctly, this was created by polling average people on what they most wanted and least wanted in music.
This song combines all the least-wanted things.
There's a sister song that goes along with this one, called The Most Wanted Song, where they combined the most wanted things.

Hey everyone. The Dave Soldier Orchestra will be performing this live this coming Sunday at Le Poisson Rouge in NYC at 7pm. It'll be the first live performance of it in over 20 years, and I'll be playing the harmonica (diatonic and also adding the bass harmonica) to it. There will be several other compositions of Dave's that night as well. Tickets are limited!

@@wwscorevideo I think just the audio. Not sure if the intension is to produce it to sell. It'll be a super cool concert.

Same here, this is literally me if I was a song
I love how they got musicians that seem really talented and just made the dumbest shit they could
It takes some serious musicianship to take a score this sparse and reliant on improvisation and turn it into a coherent song. The people performing it are very much capable of playing more, er, _conventional_ music. This was a deliberate choice xD
Reminds me of the comedy film Airplane, where they used a cast of exclusively dramatic and serious actors because they knew comedic actors would ham up their scenes.
Its actually just a compilation of least chosen genres and options on a poll of what people wanted most in a song.

"Extremely and PAINFUL slow cowboy theme with bagpipe doubling melody and bass drums tapping make sure the singer repeats in a higher octave"
The notes are the best part of the song.
“Accordion solo improvising over elevator theme (see later in score) interrupted by slams cued by conductor that interfere with the soloist”
“Piccolo way up front, everyone else plays obnoxious drones on conductor cues”
I'm at this part currently, and the initial description is spot on 😬
This is the hardest part.
It kinda reminds me of my stupid humor when I write stuff like this. Humor is a crucial part of humanity, and if you can't laugh at yourself and who you are, then you can't accept who you are. I believe it to be a universal truth, ever since I begun to think that, life has been brighter than ever. It is through making good fun of something that we take it seriously. This is a real song. And that's not even touching on the lyrics which go deep for no reason.
started uncontrollably laughing at the bagpipes and kids screaming this is truly something wonderful
The accordion solo at 13:00 was genuinely really good. Almost made me forget about the pain I was in.
It was a good pallette cleanser. You forgot all your cares and worries until 13:25 reminded you where you are.

This is pure art. It’s humanity’s rage, pain, sadness, love and desire for creation all distilled into 21 minutes. It’s like if a family collaborated to make a medley of songs, and all of them have vastly different styles and beliefs and intentions, but they made it anyway because they love and support each other and wanted to give it to the world, even if it’s not very good or coherent, because they still want to share their devotion.

the visual image of this song is such a fun one. for whatever reason i imagine the soprano as a bride running away from her wedding on a horse, finally she’s alone out on the home range for a moment of peace and quiet. she begins singing to herself. then she decides to switch it up a bit, hops off the horse and starts spitting absolute BARS. a childrens choir slowly appears in the background, backing her up. it becomes sort of like a pied piper situation except it’s her leading them in a parade. more and more people, including a full marching band, join the parade, and they keep marching, with the mentions of different holidays symbolizing the days, weeks, months that pass by. they do not know why they are still marching, but they continue for this is the only life they know. after marching for a while, the group gets a bit disillusioned. i imagine there begins to be a bit of infighting. the soprano gives an angry rant to the crowd, frustrated with what they have become. eventually, they decide to acknowledge their differences and unite together, conflicts and all, for their love of creating this absolute chaotic masterpiece of a song.
That’s beautiful 🥲🌅🐴

This sounds like the composer was peer pressured into letting all of their family have a part, but none of them had coherent music styles, so instead we got a masterpiece of random sound.
The backstory (for those unaware) is that the writers of the song took a poll of what people most wanted to hear in a song. This is a song made up of all the elements people wanted to hear the least.

Update: character development was too harsh and I am now the main villain.
Fun fact, in The Walking Dead, the director wanted this to be the song they torture Daryl with instead of "Easy Street", but that would've required playing the whole song within a 40 minute episode, and the director didn't want to lose viewership for putting the viewers through torture with Daryl.
This is such a great fun fact, thank you
That's really funny
I imagine the soprano with a face filled with pure dread singing this and when the recording stops she literally goes: "you guys know that I just did this for the paycheck"
Nah, I bet she was having a blast.
Why else would you do it? Repentance?
Sure, a paycheck is great, but I'd honestly do this for free. I love singing and also chaos!!
I’m a classical soprano. This is my operatic dream role.
You know, I think that this song being even remotely digestible and even likable to the newer generations shows how far art has come, how diverse and how eccentric things have come, ESPECIALLY in the mainstream. Sure art like this had existed, but it buried, it's so much more acceptable now, and I think that's rad as fuck.

Trying to string together each part of this music into a plot for a musical would certainly be an intreguing challenge. Not to mention it would have to be around movie length, considering this is 20 minutes of music.
The Beatles, Pink Floyd, and Monty Python have prepared me for this...and yet, it was not enough!
Because of the protest part at the end and the "enchantment" sound in the very beginning, this could be seen as a sort of operetta about somebody who walks by a protest and gets hit in the head by something and gets knocked unconscious. The enchantment part at the beginning hits in and the person is in a desert walking and encountering weird things as they sing the soprano piece. Then near the end they begin to come to as a protestor appears and is talking into a megaphone and the desert world fades away. It's like Dante's Concussion.
This song was made after finding out what people hated the most- songs about holidays, children singing, advertising, bagpipes, slow cowboy tunes, rapping ECT. I read it in a different version of this video's description.
The subtext of this c̶a̶c̶o̶p̶h̶o̶n̶y̶ masterpiece
So in short it's tuned to the American Suburbs. Sounds about right.

Moral of the song: DO ALL YOUR SHOPPING AT WALMART!
In the process of trying to make an absolutely wretched and worthless song, the author ends up identifying and utilizing several concepts that they deem as being worthless (i.e. the American dream, along with the capitalist excess and commercialism that follows it), which ends up turning the song into a political statement that inherently _does_ have worth. This is some 5D Chess type commentary.
This is what a musical written by an algorithm that hates humanity would sound like and I love it completely.
That's how this song was created. The composers and musicians surveyed a bunch of people to find out which styles of music were the most annoying, then went out of their way to incorporate as many of them as possible into this 20-minute tour de force.
We are the algorithm that hates humanity
AM composes a song
I believe I have the EP this was on somewhere.
Unfortunately, it would have failed. Art itself is human in nature, so this masterpiece, stemming from emotions of rage, would be fundamentally human.

@@KirbyLinkACW can confirm. only realized i had heard this before when the xmas chorus came. my mind tried to forget, it seems
@@thebaikalseal7335 love your positivity, friend :)
Imagine listening to all of Everywhere At The End Of Time and it just ends with this.
im a year late but fuck it. the part where the tuba plays the bagpipe theme sounds like something out of stage 3. sounds eerie af with the droning
EATEOT but it's randomly interrupted by the Walmart commercial
I landed here because I'm on a Discord server for a video game where the members of my guild play music in-game. And I'm not sure I needed this in my life, but the laughter makes it well worth it. lol
“i only listen to underground artists”
Hah!
I listen to art, this has more emotion than stuff you'd listen to on the radio
This is more listenable than Megan thee stallion music
@@burning_trash wow you’re so unique and different
@@astor_25 No I'm not lol, I'm pretty normal if you ask me
I'm willing to bet money that most people don't get past the bagpipe solo before they double check the length of the video and realize it's over 20 minutes long.
I didn't even make it past the first soprano rap before I was like...how much longer do I have to listen to this Jackson Pollock painting?
Almost 12 minutes and I don't want it to end ☹️
I made through the whole video and it was beautiful, especially the protesting elevator music at around 18 minutes.
I almost checked out at 2 minutes- but I'm halfway through and committed.
13. Banjo plays the Walmart commercial, add percussion and tuba, fast tempo then slam 5 cued
This is what broke me. I had to stop after that.
You sit down in you seat at a preforming arts center, while viewing what piece will the orchestra will be playing, a guy sits next to you and says: "I seen this before and you in for a long ride." As he gives you a pat on your back leaving you confused.
