"Child! Be silent and still!"
"But Father! This doth slap!"
I doth proclaim! Tis pure fire!
Thou doth not understand the new age father!
And thus, tis a fire hymn. Deadass I say. No cap if I do say so myself my lassie.
"You children and your Boulder Music."
"As you say, elder."
Thou shall let me enjoy tis lit cello song
I never thought I’d see a headbanging cellist writhe around on the floor while aggressively playing AC/DC for an audience of people from the 1700’s and now that I have my life feels complete.
very satisfying!
Hahaha
Ja,der ist gut.

They crushed it🥳🥳
Who's watching in 2024?
Yes, it’s awesome
Here
Always, every year I had to listen this masterpiece
Who’s watching in1824?
I’m here in 1626
Seven years ago I heard this for the first time. It made me want to start the cello. Now I've been playing for six years and am about to graduate. Thank you both for inspiring me to start the cello, if this song had never existed my life would be so much different. Thank you both so much for making my life a musical one.
WE ARE IN THE SAME POSITION
Wow. Thank you for your story. How goes it now? Are you a professional cellist?
My 60+ year old mom has taken up Cello too. I think sending her here helped remind her of how much she wanted to learn this in her youth. So proud of my mom!
Makes me sad that I stopped playing the violin after high school. 😢
I could have been a contender!! 😅
And did you ever attempt anything similar?
Judging by those bows you just redefined "Shredding it"
If you like them you should check out Apocalyptica! Saw them perform live and one of the members actually broke a cello mid performance from rocking out 😁
Damn those picks are big
What I’m wondering is how did they practice this? At normal volume? How many bows did they go through to perfect the shred???
Lord Pindar best comment of the century
Indeed. They can wail.
2CELLOS: "alright, time for our concert"
Bow: "My time has come"
desposito tries to get 100 subs boi mr Stark I don’t feel to good
Well looks like that bow was put to good use... lol
I was legit thinking "damn how often and how much does it cost to get that thing resting for yall" like this is the final product but imagine how many times they practiced this
Sent shivers down my spine
*My time has gone
I had no idea you could shred on a cello but here we are.
That cello got shredded alright.
Nine years later, I look back on this and the audience and still think of the classic line from Back to the Future, " I guess you guys aren't ready for that, yet. But your kids are gonna love it"
Thank you, Marty!
@@markotto4281you are so
Dumb 😂
That's actually the second most popular comment on this video. 4 years ago.

Thunderstruck has taken over their bodies. So amazing.
Imagine thinking your going to a classical concert but then they start playing the hardest metal anyone has ever heard in their life
😂😂😂❤
This song could easily be classical music.
They later got arrested and burnt alive for worshiping the devil
so...they will be Shot down in flames!
Fabio Artos Cassone lol I get it
hahaha lol
I guess they're going on a highway to hell.
I'm not sorry.
😂😂
- "Not gonna lie, I thought they were going to break."
- "The guys, bows, or cellos?"
- "Yes."
Hahahahaha

As someone who has played string in highschool orchestra seeing what happened to those poor bows made me cringe inside. Honestly surprised there was hair left unbroken at the end
the audience
@@skycondon2743AHAHAH AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
*No bows and cellos were harmed in the making of this kickass music video*
Nine years, 262 _million_ views. A timeless classic by now. Bravo!
268 by now
My orchestra teacher: gets mad if someone even scratches a tiny bit of the bow
2CELLOS:
Haha bow go brr
well technically they didn't do anything to their bows. only the bow hair -_-
@@arashtarafar it's called a joke -_-

ACDC did a great cover of this classic.
this made me laugh a while
I laughed so hard
Hahaha!
Yeah, the acdc covered it again and again with different names and lyrics and albums..
I have never liked acdc as I heard here, 😆 lol
😂
Wow, I never imagined 'Thunderstruck' could sound so electrifying on cellos! 🤯 These guys are absolutely killing it with their talent and creativity. Rock on, cellos! 🎻⚡ #Thunderstruck
A bass drop and shred from a cello hits on a spiritual level. Cello rock goes hard
My music teacher showed this to us and said this is what people thought of Beethoven and Mozart’s music when it first came out
It isn't?
Same my music teacher showed me this
Same but she didn’t say that unfortunately 😔
Same ,my music teacher showed this to us!
So, so very true.
As someone who used to play cello, and my teacher put the ever loving fear of GOD into my soul that if I played too passionately I’d break something... I’m mad now! I could’ve been doing this shit instead!? So much more bad ass!!
Well now, bow strings are expensive. And you're expected 4 hours of playing. I saw these guys (I think) in real life in Vienna before fame. They had many more bows at the ready.
That wasn't really much an option until the 90s.
america's got talent
I mean, your teacher was not wrong. Look at their bows.
🎼 Let them mess up their bows, who cares, as long as they continue to perform, I don't care obvious they can afford them, that's their business... I Love these 2 guys! Best thang that has happen EVER! Cheers 2CELLOS! 🥂🎻🎻🎻🎻
@@chpruc What changed during the 90s?
We had the privilege to see them in concert in München. These two are absolutely incredible musicians and amazing performers. I’m so happy our, that time, 17 year old son wanted to see them in concert. ❤
Ну и шуточки у вас, мальчики 😊❤
Великолепное исполнение.
Благодарю от всего сердца ❤❤❤
Just imagine, it’s 1824, you go to a theater and you see these 2 guys, thinking “oh this is gonna be a good one” then, all of a sudden, they make hardest cello shred in the history of humanity, and you were there to witness it
based off the outfits this is about the late 17th to mid 18th centuries
That wasn’t the only thing shredded. Did you see their bows by the end?? 😂
@@soliform3485
I think so too
Then they got to witness the execution by flame because of witchcraft
@@mememan8975 oh shit...I never thought of that...yet also where is the third guy eh? I can still hear somebody beating on the back of a cello while they are playing completely different notes.
They are literally shredding those bows.
it kindof hurts my soul
Ye agreed
@@Meiw7777 I know 😬
I got thinking how much does a bow cost?
@@rosellabill Depends on the bow. I remember seeing a young virtuoso on maybe a late night show. After her amazing performance the host asked her to show the audience what she had done to a bow in warm up and she pulled out a broken bow. She said it had cost 5k. And this was years ago. The bow string might be cheaper to replace 🤷♀️
The fact that they are literally break-dancing and playing amazingly the entire time especially at the end lol its hilarious and insane
😂😂😂❤
Their bows barely survived….

This looks like a perfect premise for a movie. Modern band gets sent back in time to classical baroque period and converts modern hits into classical music.

Sounds like a great idea - I actually might work on a play about that. Could I use this idea?
@@ternellrogerroger2687 Sure. But I am NOT sacrificing any potential monetary benefits. 😂
Then they are on the run for witch craft or are the stars of the renescance
It is a great idea! It was a great scene in Back to the Future
RIP to those poor bows. Such suffering and sacrifice. 😅
Who would have thought that 10 years have passed since this video was created. And nothing got old. You both don't either. :)
You haven't lived until you've seen a grown man busting a fat solo on a cello while squirming on the ground. Man, this is life
HIPPITY HOPPITY THESE BROKEN BOW STRINGS ARE NO LONGER ANYONES PROPERTY
Sure is
where does this group come from?
@@janprah5655 Eastern Europe. (I don’t remember the country.) Look for Elton John’s interview about them. He saw one video and invited them to tour with his band.
Took dancing lessons from Madonna. 😂

And mozart from the backrow: "ROCK THAT CELLO! YEAH!"
He would too! He was way ahead of his time
Can you tell me what's the title of the first song?
@@gilang1952 I think, that's an excerpt from Vivaldi's Spring (the theme appears within the first couple of measures).
Meanwhile Beethoven be like: "WHAT DID U SAY?"

2Cellos = keeping bowmakers in business for the last few years
Way too true
I thought this was for the clip's purpose at first... then I watched a live video.
Dane Winehouse Ikr! I play the violin
All that bow abuse....
It would mean so much to me if i could get 40 subscribers. I am a twelve year old musician. I will subscribe back if you leave a comment on one of my videos I subscribed. This is a mozart concerto czcams.com/video/_a5c8ePe8DM/video.html
I know this joke has already been done here, but shouldn't the quote me modified just a little bit:
"I guess you're not ready for that yet... but your grandchildren's grandchildren are gonna love it."
Had this been done in the early 1700's the audience would have been THUNDER STRUCK. This video shows it!🎉
Mozart been real quiet since this dropped
Six feet is too deep for someone to hear you headbang
@@matildarose lemme turn this up then
HAHAHAHA
He's been real quiet since he dropped
beat too good he’s been dead for years
Angus Young seizure with the cello is still the most badass moment in the whole instrumental rock music!!!
A song sooo AWESOME...it TRANSCENDS SPACE/TIME!!!!!
AC/DC FOREVER!!!!!
My favorite part of this video is all the kids vibing out while their parents are clutching their pearls. It was a great move by the director.
My favorite part is the woman in purple.
@@ShroudedSciuridae As she wasn't doing anything remarkable I can only assume you liked her because she kept putting her hand on her bosom.
I didn't notice until you left this comment. So funny. The thought they were at a rock concert.🤣🤣🤣
😃 the young girl @ 2:34 😆
”You might not be ready for this yet - but your kids are gonna love it”
I remember seeing this live in 1820. They were sadly burned at the stake moments after this performance for witchcraft and a few counts of skullduggery
A talent gone to waste. What a shame.

This song is still fire
still a w song ngl
This song is what really pushed me to learn to play an instrument myself. Granted I went with violin not cello, but I just started learning 3 days ago. My wife got me a beginner violin for my birthday and I'm so excited thinking about one day maybe being good enough to cover thunderstruck
🔥
These guys are like the ultimate form of being classically trained but the teachers never let them have any fun
That is sooooooooo true!
yes

Let's be honest, if you were a kid in the Victorian era and we're expecting some prim and proper performance and you heard this, you'd probably be vibing too
@@GrumpyTy34er yes but that's not the victorian era, it's 18th century
@@exhocmomentopendetaeternit9096 Ah, see, I'm kinda dumb so you can understand why

underrated comment
its a quote from back to the future
I am pretty sure it’s from Dr.Who when the doctor rides into a colosseum on a tank playing an electric guitar and invents the word “dude”
@@heatherrowan8496 this is from back to the future 2
@@muryllomesquita6831 no its not.
its back in the future one, right after marty does the guitar solo and pops off.
back to the future 2 was about getting back into the past, not the future.
1 instrument 2 people. A Masterpiece
I have only two words to describe this: HOLY SHIT! What these guys are getting these classic instruments to do is something completely mind blowing.
"I guess you guys aren't ready for that yet... But your kids are gonna love it."
Well played, sir.
Exactly what I thought haha xD
"that was very interesting music, Marty!"
😂😂 Back to The Future refrence, I love that movie
I'm not sure we should leave, Marty. Alcohol in this time was good, potatoes were good.
“We’re professional musicians, but our paychecks almost solely go to new bows or re-hairing old ones”
So just classical string musicians, no?
You joke, but that's precisely what was going on with The Who in the early days. They'd smash more equipment than what the gig covered.
Vincent Thibert most professional musicians do not have to get replacements after every performance
your booga shit right
Booga_Shuga I understand but have you been to a semi-professional classic concert? Average number of bows broken is 4 per movement.
This is a masterpiece…
The fact that, technically, this could have been played hundreds of years ago is immensely funny to me.
This is the true definition of classic rock
I swear I was gonna do this but was too shy 😂
This is underrated asf
Absolutely brilliant

@@cerenyldz2754 who cares
Damn, when It REALLY started to sound like Thunderstruck, it was HEAVENLY METAL!
Honestly when they play the main chorus, it reminds me alot of middle/eastern European and Slavic music, that reall unique fiddle sound.
Holy shit, thanks for the likes!
Блять !!!!! Это лучшее, что я слушал в жизни!!!!!!!!
Its actually heavy wood since they are playing on a cello.

Even after 10 years this still the definition of shredding music
“Yes officer, those are the men that murdered their cellos and bows”
officer: on what song
man: thunderstruck
officer (salute the cellos)
Nah. Just the bow.
roftar he didn’t salute he “bow” down to them
Oof
Bless their sacrifice.
For the 1700’s the camera and cinematographic quality is superb.
Time traveling ghost filmed it.
Did you not realise that King George III (otherwise known as King George of Lucas) was well known for his ventures in cinematography and directing, nearly getting him the chance of winning an award for best directry for his documentory on the building of windsor castle but was just beat out by George Washingtons hit musical "Life in the colony" (history buffs i know this is inaccurate, I skipped over all of the smaller award nominations but eh)
😂😂
it's crazy that they're still alive too
Guys, you performed Rock Opera beautifully on cello. The audience is shocked by your performance.
Юмор зашкаливает! Молдцы ребята!
Cello bows exist:
2CELLOS: We're about to end these bows' careers.
I was waiting for a bow comment. They trashed those things, lol.
Those bows can brag that they have truly lived!
‘Tis the way any bow should be destroyed
But the strings survived it?
i think they actually make a career for bow makers

THE beautiful thing that few have noticed is the change in expressions of the children in the audience, first bored to death then amused and excited
I never thought I would see someone shred on a cello.
try searching Apocalyptica ;D
@@lightspaladin231 I just checked them out. Theyre great.
there were two cellos. I believe two bows were shredded.

The way the bowstrings are falling apart really tells you how hard these guys are *SLAMMIN IT* on those cellos
It just tells they're using the instrument wrong. It was not made for this kind of playing.
@@songfulmusicofsongs well really theres no wrong way to play anything, if you really want to play something with any instrument then you can.
You just to work around the Stigma of how is actually supposed to be played
@@backgroundfella1374 I mean that if their instrument breaks while playing they need to have stronger bows and strings.
