    Very well done! Although, if ppl really cant get the concept of keyboard cat. do they really deserve to know?

    Knowledge is king.

    I agree with Brutorthegreat. Perhaps people who don't understand layers of nuance and irony appreciate having it unpacked for them?

    And I don't think the first 30 seconds works to draw viewers in. But I stuck with it & it WAS a fun watch!

    Informative for anyone under 90. I wish you'd explain the Becoming a Star poster on the pillar behind you. I've never seen it and it's sad (but funny).

    that was a funny video, yet kinda confusing,
    so many stats and so much info,
    yet that poor old cat only had one hit tune ?

    1 hit tune, in 9 life times lol
