I Speak Normally For The Entirety Of This Video

addressing the criticisms i received

My music:

[workshop]

Davie gets criticism for talking in his videos... responds by making a video of just him talking. Epic sir. Well played.

[jackseph]

I discovered you during lockdown, Davie. Middle aged parent. Didn’t play any instrument. You had me hooked immediately. Now, 3 years later, I play the bass every day and my son also decided to play as well. You created a middle aged bassist and a (very good) 11 year old bass player. We will always remember that it was you that inspired us to play.

Your deadpan humour is what is special about the channel.

[StamfordBridge]

Your channel is gigantic in large part because of the humor. Ignore the nonsense criticism.

7:33 "I never run out of ideas... I run out of motivation" - this hits deep for any kind of creative activity.

[robwoodring]

"I'm not gonna cut this too much..."
*has 5 cuts during that sentence*

[roughlytuned]

"I wont make too many cuts" - has a cut every 5-10 seconds! This is one of my favourite videos!

[zahari_s_stoyanov]

- Who is your favorite bassist?
- Silvester Stallone.
- What?
- What?

13.4M subs speaks for itself. I started watching you a few years ago with my grandson. We love your deadpan sense of humor, the crazy jump cuts zooming in on your face, the slapping and ultimately when you declare "CHECKMATE!" Great stuff!

I honestly don’t think you would’ve built such a great channel without your jokes and personality. Having music and reaction, or jokes is great as a combination, because it keeps normies like us watching, and even those who aren’t.

The fact that you couldn't even hold yourself back for this "serious" video shows how much you enjoy it. I don't frequent your videos but when I do watch them they do make me crack a smile. F*ck em man you do you.

[BuyoganExtendedStories]

As an introverted person, seeing your video is a relief. I've been watching you ever since. Please don't change

[mk_rexx]

I first discovered you back when you were the "silent bass guy" but I also remember you explaining that playing a character helps you be more confident in speaking to a camera so hearing you talk for 10 minutes without playing a character is pretty wholesome.

Davide, I've been a Luthier for 28 years, your content made it into my into my world a few months ago. I've been bingeing your work the last couple of days. You are gifted both musically and comedically. Keep doing what you do. It's brilliant.

[MotivationExceeds]

"I'm not gonna cut too much this time" he says as he cuts video every second. Please never change man.

[NaricesRotas]

13.4 M subs is incredible for someone with a channel focused on bass. You've been doing an amazing job throughout the years and inspired a lot of people, in fact, you were one of the inspirations I had to create a boxing youtube channel! I get it, there are some toxic people out there but you have to make the effort to listen to the thousands of people that support you and want you to succeed. You're amazing! don´t forget that.

[XentinelSB]

I don't usually leave comments under these videos because I feel like I won't be noticed, but I just wanted to say that I really appreicate what you do. The unfortunate truth is that haters are more likely to comment than enjoyers, so don't let that demotivate you!

[bobleonheart]

Keep doing what you're doing dude. I love the way you play on the juxtaposition of the dry deadpan character and the powerful expressive bass. It works on both a musical level and a comedic level.

[carlosecg]

I found your channel during the pandemic and then binge-watched it, many times with my 5yo son at the time. Today he regularly says “slap like now” and “OMG”, maybe his first english words. Thank you for bringing joy during those sad times.
