Two Is Better Than One

I was inspired by a post of a friend of mine of the same topic. Well, two is better than one. when we say two is better than one, a lot of us think about the song. It's a nice song by Boys Like Girls featuring Taylor Swift. Well the topic here is not about the song. Well maybe it has something to do about the song......

Is two really better than one?? Well, I don't know. For some two is better than one. For some, no. Well personally I think two is better than one. Well u gt the meaning. But sometimes, u may think two is better than one but haih...... I just can't explain what I want to say here, it's a complicated matter. I used to be love drunk, but now I'm hungover...... No, I'm not combining songs here, don't worry.

Back to the question, is two really better than one? It's a matter of looking at it from different perspectives. In those times that you feel lonely, yeah u think two is better than one...... When you're in love u think yeah, two is definitely better than one. But during the times where you're in a heartbreak u think otherwise. You think well it's better to be single because your looking at the matter with a different point of view. When people see things from different perspectives, the things they see are different.

So maybe it's true,
That I can't live without you,
And maybe two is better than one
There's so much time
To figure out the rest of my life
And you've already got me coming undone
And I'm thinking two is better than one.

The chorus part f the song "Two Is Better Than One"
Well I think two is better than one. So what is your perspective??

The Piano

Hello people! This post is the thought of a great musician I know. Now I shall give you a brief introduction about the piano.

Well, to many people, the piano is their musical instrument of choice. It has a brilliant sound and is a very versatile instrument. You can play almost anything on the piano. Well, for you people who like and play pianos, this is for you.
OK then, before I start I stress that this is only a brief intro on the piano, for those of you who do not want to go through the thousands and thousands of words. For further info, you can go to sites like wikipedia or search the net. Because this is a brief intro, I would not go into complex elements such as tuning or physics and things like that.

Well there are two kinds of piano (basically), one is the Grand Piano as shown in the picture above and the other is the Upright Piano which most pianists have at home. The standard piano has three pedals which are the soft pedal, the mute or practice pedal and the sustain pedal. The piano produces its sound as the "hammers" hit the strings inside the piano that produce definite sounding notes. Pianist either play by sight (sight-reading) or by ear or well, both.

The piano took a road of evolution before it became the piano it is today. It started of s the Dulcimer, then the Clavichord appeared, then a few appeared before the Harpsichord, later after a few more evolutions the piano appeared. For further details regarding the evolution of the piano, you can visit http://www.concertpitchpiano.com/Evolution.html or your site of choice.
Just for your information, pianos those days were plucked or lifted instead of hit. (Correct me if I am wrong).

After the centuries of piano evolution, today we have many variations of the piano that today, can produce sound of many kinds. Although I would not really consider them as pianos, they are played by keys so maybe they can be considered as pianos but anyway, modern pianos of today include the keyboard (digital piano some call them), the synthesizer or synth which is commonly used in modern music especially genres like pop, R&B and the list goes on. The synthesizer by the way isn't really a piano, it is a sound producer with keys to decide which note you want the sound to be played on. Well thats my brief intro on the piano. Well here are some pictures of modern pianos. Thanks for reading and please tell me if I am wrong in any way.
