All right! Last week, you... Oh. You saw us do the best video ever, where we ranked all the world's bubble tea. Well... Mmmm. Today is the opposite. We're gonna have one of the most painful videos ever. Basically, this is a game, and it's called... Truth, or... ...durian! Alright, in case you guys don't know what durian is, it's this fruit that's from... - Southeast Asia, I believe.
- Southeast Asia. - Correct me if I'm wrong.
- Yeah, I mean, you guys can look it up. But it's notoriously smelly. Taste-wise, it's very subjective. I think it tastes like petrol. This is what I imagine petrol tastes like. It gases the entire house, too. It gases the entire house, but it also tastes like a really disgusting slushie, like... Vomit. But, - Singaporeans seem to love it, so...
- Yeah. We've got one here. - Yeah, it's basically wrapped in three layers of stuff.
- Three layers. - And you can still smell it!
- Yeah. Anyway. - No, just put it back.
- You can smell it, hey? - We got a list of questions.
- Yes. And the idea is these are... ...questions where we will be forced to decide, do we want to tell the truth? Or, do we want to, um... ...take a bite out of the durian? So we take turns, right, to do it? Or do we answer both for the question? I think we take turns? Let's take turns, it's funner. - It's a bit funner. It's like, see which one you draw, right?
- I think it... Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Okay, so we have a durian in this... I think my fingers are gonna smell after touching it. Anyway, in here... I'm gonna open it, show you guys just to... Eddy: Dude...! Brett: Oh, you can smell it!! Can you guys see it? It's still under the plastic. Dude, it looks like turd. It looks like a massive turd from a special animal. This room is gonna smell. I think this room will need to be aired out for like, at least a week. Dude, my nose hurts! - Ahh, it stings!
- Dude, that smells really bad! It stings! It's like getting a swab test, continuously! Alright, let's just go. Scissors, paper, rock. Oh, you're going first! Before we get started... - Our Holst collection is out. It's one of our first...
- Oh, yes. ...big collections, based off the Holst Planet Suites. The other planets will be coming out. And based off gods and goddesses, you know? We're proud of this design. Yeah, because the Holst planets was actually composed based off the astrology, - Mhmm.
- not the astronomy. - Did I get it the right way around?
- Yes. - Yeah, so the...
- Yes. - ...Roman gods and goddesses.
- Yes. So go check it out on TwoSetApparel.com. Also check out our Instagram, give it a follow, - so you guys can see all the latest drops.
- Oh, and all of the designs have some... ...subtle hints to the composition itself, so... - Oh yeah!
- See if you can figure it out. Oh yeah! For the high IQ. - Yes. All right!
- Okay, here we go. - All right. Oh, sorry.
- Oh wait. First question. "Which classical musician do you think should retire?" Do you want to say the truth, or durian? Truth, or durian? Hmm? I can cut one piece. - Oh, I don't really wanna...
- Which classical musician I think that should retire? Can I just say me? Nah, you can't say you. I'll just, I'll cut this part off. - We start from the tip.
- Which classical musician should retire?? Oh, I got one! Oh, really? Um... Can you say it? Ohh, this is intense! Do I have to say the name? Of course! Is Argerich still performing? - She's quite old, right?
- Yeah, she's still performing. She's awesome, I don't want her to retire, ever. - Ohh, man!
- Is André Rieu still performing? But he's not really a classical.... - Ohh! Yeah, he's not...
- Just kidding, just kidding, just kidding! Um... I mean, you can cop a durian, it's all right. It's just, the turd is just sitting here. I'm gonna go with André Rieu. I mean, only 'cause he's probably already made his fortune doing those waltz concerts. - So... He probably doesn't need to keep going anyway.
- Yeah, yeah. Yeah, like, step aside, - you can calm down now.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah. - You can live in your mansion.
- Yeah, we've had enough Eine kleines and Blue Danubes. - Yeah yeah yeah.
- Yeah yeah, okay. Oh, that's a good one. All right, your turn. I don't like these questions. "Who's a composer you hate that you know you shouldn't?" I feel like we're just gonna expose ourselves and not eat any durian. Yeah. Oh, do I say it? Truth or durian! "Who's a composer you hate that you know you shouldn't?" Truth, or durian! Oh, this is tricky, actually! I don't really... Oh. What? - Okay.
- "I don't really... Oh." Depends who I hate, like... - Who did you think of?
- Playing, or like... - Just say who you thought of just then.
- ...or the music? Whoever you thought of when you went, "Oh," is whoever you should say. Oh, no, I don't really hate... I can't, I can't hate him. It's not... I mean, him/her. Ah! Just eat it then. - Eat it! Eat it!
- I was gonna say, um... Who's that? - Okay, I'll say that.
- Who?? All right! There's this composer... - Oh...
- I don't even know who that is. Do you think he would watch this video? - Oh, it's a contemporary composer?
- Yeah. Bro...! I don't know them! - Up to you whether you wanna break friendships.
- Okay, nah, I'm going old. I've got another one. - Who?
- Corelli. Nah, but... Do you really think you shouldn't hate Corelli? - No...!
- Do you really think you shouldn't hate Corelli?? Noooo! I don't think anyone would be that upset if you said, "I hate Corelli." Corelli's kinda just like, eh. Noooooo! Puccini! Do you actually hate Puccini? Yeah. Yeah. - Actually?
- Yeah. - No, Corelli, not...
- Do you just not listen to Puccini, - or you hate Puccini?
- No, I just, I'm just... I hate durian more. All right, fine. We'll go with Puccini. - Yeah, Puccini.
- All the opera singers will hate you. Sorry, opera! Even though I feel like that wasn't an honest answer, but... - Puccini.
- We'll go with it, we'll roll with it. "How much money can make you collab with a musician you don't respect?" I wish you had to say who. - If it was a who, I'm definitely eating that durian.
- Yeah...! I'm not just saying the name! "How much money can make you collab with a musician you don't..." It depends, though. Sometimes, there's a musician you respect, but... You know, there's just no particular reason for a collab. - And other times it might be...
- Yes. What if [it's] someone you just don't respect? Who? Like... Not saying that! Dude, we're making ourselves look so, like, bitchy right now. Yeah, I think I'll eat durian. - Bro...
- Dude, I can't answer that question! - That's just such a...
- Let me cut one for you. Eddy: The tiniest piece, please. - Bro, that's huge!
- We gotta finish this. No, we don't! - Who said we have to...
- That's a fair amount, right guys? No, it's just bread. - This is bread top. I'm eating bread.
- Oh, this is bread. Mmm, delicious. It's so sweet. Brett: Smells so good! I had to like, chew super fast, and just force myself to swallow it. Actually, this is a sweet durian. - Is it good?
- It's not the worst that I've had. Oh, that's good then. - Can't wait to eat it.
- It's still pungent. - Do you remember durian being sweet?
- No! I always thought it just tasted like petrol. - No, it's 'cause we got the second luxury.
- Yeah, we should... Imagine we got luxury, maybe it tastes like bubble tea. - Oh, maybe.
- Yeah. No, this is definitely better durian than I've had before. Okay. So we can eat a bigger chunk. "Out of all the countries you visited, which one is your least favorite?" You're eating it, I already know you're eating...! This is a horrible question, I can't...! - No, I...
- You're eating it. 'Cause I know what your honest answer is. You know, I don't have a least favorite, - so I can't answer it.
- I know your honest answer, - so I will know if you're bulls****ing it.
- I'm eating it. Oh, dude, what's that red stuff? - Yeah, that's disgusting!
- Oh, look at this! Just pretend it's bread. That's what I did. Eddy: You're eating bread. Eddy: Yeah, you can't breathe. Eddy: The trick is just don't breathe, and chew. Dude... And you gotta force yourself to swallow. Oh, dude, it went into your nose! It's like... - If you breathe, it becomes 10,000 times worse.
- It does! I could feel it getting worse. Breathing through my mouth. - This room's gonna smell.
- Can you imagine kissing someone after eating durian? I mean... Not that I'd kiss anyone 'cause all I do is practice, but... All right, next question. The pieces should get bigger and bigger. Oh, that's all right. "What's your genuine opinion - on the other person's concerto livestream?"
- Oh, okay. Your Tchaik 2 mil... It was one of the... - ...freaking coolest experiences ever.
- Mmhm. - I can't believe we had 40,000 live viewers,
- Yeah. - at a single time.
- Yeah. That was crazy. I think I played like crap, because I didn't practice the orchestra part enough. We didn't have it properly arranged, but also... I was still on my old violin, and I was still just struggling a lot. Nah, I remember being really nervous and just freaking out about myself, - so I didn't really think much about you.
- Oh. Nice! I thought you played all right. You played pretty well. Thank you! - Like... You should be proud of yourself.
- Yeah yeah yeah. - Yeah. Nice.
- Alright, no durian for you. Yaaaay! Needed a good break after the durian. "Which instrument do you think takes the least effort to master?" That's not too bad. "To master." Can I say the ukelele? Whatever you think is the truth, - just tell them. Just tell the world.
- Yeah, I'm just thinking. No, you know what? Triangle. - Yeah. Safe answer.
- Done. Yes. "When was the last time you cried?" Oh, f***. I remember, actually. It was recent. I cried, on, um... ...last Thursday. Oh. It doesn't say why. It doesn't ask why, - so I'm not gonna say why.
- Yeah, okay. Yeah. - You dodged a durian!
- Noice! Dude, I feel like I'm simmering in this smell, it's like... I don't think we realize how bad it's gonna smell until we leave the room and come back. Well, let's just not come back. Yeah, just never come back. "Name a once-great musician who went downhill." Nah, I can't. No. No! Okay, but who did you think of? Just tell me. Can't say that. I'm eating one. - But it's true.
- It's true, right? But it shouldn't be said. I'd rather durian than truth at this point. Dude, how do you chop this? Ugh! Is that good? I thought you said bigger pieces, they're getting smaller. - Nah, just...
- Alright, let's go bigger. No no no, I don't wanna eat a big one. - Nah, I'll go bigger.
- Let's go smaller. No! Gonna up the... - Dude, my stomach hurts.
- You know what it feels like? It feels like you're just about to jump into a cold shower. That kind of anticipation. Please don't vomit. We don't have a vomit bag. I don't want this room smelling like vomit and durian. We just gotta trick our brains. "It smells so good!" "It smells so good!" - It's like an aroma.
- Mm... It's like the lavender oil aroma. Durian oil. Mm... - Your turn.
- Oh, my turn. Yeah, it's your turn. "Who is the worst musician we've ever collabed with?" Oh, come on... UGHHH! What kind of question is th- Actually no, let me think. Who's the worst musician...? Well, I mean... If you compare it to like, Janine's and Hilary's and Ziyu's and Chloe's... Is the worst musician I collabed with Brett? I mean, come on, like, everyone we collabed with is like... god tier. Who have we collabed with that's not like a soloist? Wait, actually I just thought of someone. Does that count? Yeah! I mean, do you want to say it? Nah. I'm fine. I can cut a big piece for you. Nah. I'm not saying it. - Oh dude, that's huge!
- That's one. That's bigger than my future. Bro, that's bigger than my bank account. All right, everyone. I'm gonna teach you guys the art of self-deception, where you can hypnotize yourself to believe in anything. And this durian is gonna taste as good as... Strauss. - Dude, this is like three pieces, bro!
- Yeah, it gets bigger. It gets b- No, you gotta eat the whole thing! And that is the power of self-deception. Dude, that's impressive! All right, my turn. It's character development. By the end of this video, I'm gonna like durian. Yeah, yeah. Next time, we'll do cockroaches. - NAH!! F*** that.
- Just kidding. "Describe your experience with a famous musician" "who was rude to you." "No names needed." Oh okay. Actually once the... person was... just smoking. This was like 7 years ago, so it was like... TwoSet just started actually. Do you wanna give context? It was like orchestra settings. Yeah, orchestra setting, yeah, so... I just kinda left rehearsals. I just saw someone smoking. Nah, I did like, a double take, and I wasn't sure if it was that person. And I was like... "Oh hey! You must be ****." "Hi, nice to meet you." And then the person just kinda went... "Yep." And started walking away. Yeah. - That was like one experience.
- Yeah. "Show the other person your recently deleted photos" "and let him choose one picture to show to the camera." Wait, let me find my phone. I don't know what's on my recently deleted. - That's a twist, plot twist!
- Yeah. Why is there 6,000 photos? Yeah, it's a new phone. - How do you have 6,000?
- I think it's because I imported it over from my old phone. - I see.
- I think it's because I imported it over from my old phone. Do you trust me picking a great one to show everyone? All right, you can show one. - I don't think there's anything bad here.
- Okay. Let's go through the 6,000. Take your time. Oh, there's nothing to show! Yeah, it's just like screenshots of like, TikTok videos, or like... merch. All right, this one. Eddy from 3 years ago. Look at that. - Not too bad.
- Not too bad! "What's the other person's worst violin habit?" Oh, I'm not- Yean okay, um... Oh... plenty. Plent- Actually I'm curious if you know my worst violin habit. - 'Cause I know- I think I know what mine are.
- Yeah, um... I actually don't know the worst. But one... obvious one. I definitely think it's like... Spiccato, sautillé. Okay. Yeah, okay. But what about it? - Uh...
- Like, it sucks, but what's the habit? The habit is like... It doesn't have that ricoch- It doesn't keep bouncing. There's no real articulation when there's a string crossing involved. - Ooh...
- Yeah. You still get it, but you should- it's like... How do I fix it? - Just kidding!
- I don't know! - Don't ask me.
- Help! Help me! I have no idea! Pick one. "Describe your worst student." Oh, are they watching this? Oh! Every teacher has a worst student! I immediately know who it is. I only taught him for like, a month... - Oh!
- or two max. I can't remember. - I'll describe it. I won't say his name.
- Yeah, that's true. That's fair. He was... ...really, really... disobedient. And the entire time, he would just... Not just not do what I tell him to do, but deliberately not comply. - Oh, that's the worst!
- Yeah. - Like, on purpose, right?
- Yeah, so like for example, he would be tilting the bow the wrong way, so I'd be like, "Can you please tilt it this way?" And so he would tilt it so much, he's basically scraping the wood on the strings. That's so bad! And then I was just- I remember he would keep doing this all the time, and just wouldn't listen. And then I eventually stopped 'cause I was like... "I'm just wasting everyone's time." "I'm wasting your parents' money." - I didn't even want to get paid because there's no progress.
- Yeah. - Yeah. It was a waste of everyone's time.
- There's nothing happening. - It was just a waste of everyone's time.
- Yeah, yeah. All right. "What's one personality trait of the other person" "you wish could change?" (Both) Ooh... Uh-oh! Uh-oh! Uh-oh! Be more on time. It's all right. Ha ha ha! - Yeah, no, that's true.
- Yeah! I'm working on it. All right, your turn! Oh, that was all right. Phew! "What's the worst piece of advice you received from a violin teacher?" Worst piece of advice I've ever received... I mean, there's so many I can think of. I think, probably one of the worst ones was just a teacher in Europe told me... to always look at the contact point while you're playing, like this. And I think that's just unnecessary. Yeah. And it's like, why? He never explained why. "What's the worst recording you ever heard?" Like, on YouTube, there's plenty of- - Eddy Chen, Sibelius 3 Mil Live Stream.
- No, there's plenty of- There's plenty of bad recordings on YouTube. Like some bad school orchestras. Then name it. Which school? But I can't remember. Well then, that doesn't count. You have to say one that you remember the name. I feel like most recordings are pretty good. I can't really name one. I like all of them actually. Bro. Tell me one. OH!!! - Oh yeah, of course!
- That is just a random one I thought of. Oh! Okay, okay, okay. - 'Cause I was thinking of like, Heifetz...
- Yeah... None of them is bad! None of it's bad! Oh yeah, YouTube musicians. Ugh... Ugh...! It doesn't have to be soloists, just like people... There's... There's lots of bad ones! I can't say! Oh no! I can't say! No! Sh**! F***! Oh, I don't know if I can say it! Oh, I don't know if I can say it! - Ugh! Durian is looking at my face!
- Yeah, I... I wouldn't. - I wouldn't, hey.
- Yeah. Oh, I'm eating durian. I can't say it. Sorry guys! Why can't I cut this? Eddy: Dude, that's massive. Oh... - Eddy: My body hurts.
- All right guys, here you go. Is that big enough? Dude. Oh my god... Can you guys see it? It's actually- It actually hurts my stomach. Bro, that's a massive chunk. GOOD LUCK, MY BOI! Or you can tell the world all the recordings you don't like. - Eddy: He he he...
- Guys, please like and subscribe. A lot of sacrifices go into this. Dude, I can't commit. I can't swallow it. Does it taste like cockroaches? Mm... Yum! "Choose..." Brett: Can I see? All right. So I think this is like Shoot, Shag, Marry, - but with like, music edition, so...
- Okay. And the 3 people are... Oh...! "Give concert ticket to a friend." All right, I'll definitely attend one live concert with Janine. - Mhm.
- Because I've never heard her play live personally. So I wanna hear her play live. What do you mean "give concert ticket to a friend?" - I think it means that I don't want to go to their concerts,
- Yeah. - so I'm giving the ticket to a friend.
- Yeah. Oh... That's kinda nasty. A HA HA! WOO! DURIAN! WOO! Let me just prepare a piece for you. It's gonna be... delicious. Nah, actually I- Okay, I didn't realise that was that. That's really nasty. That's mean. I wouldn't do that. I just... I would just go to the concert. Well, you gotta pick one. So I'm gonna prepare you one, just in case. I wouldn't give the concert ticket away! - You gonna eat one? 'Cause I got a juicy...
- That's so- Just don't go to the concert! - Don't give the ticket away!
- Yeah! I got a juicy piece for you. I guess I'm eating durian. All right, here you go. Here, here, here, here. Here, here, here. Brett: Dude, I'm burping. I'm actually... There you go. It smells so bad! - Brett: Oh my god.
- I don't have the mental willpower to deceive myself. Trick yourself. It's... bubble tea but slushed up. Dude, it requires so much mental willpower to trick yourself. Dude, I think the smell is getting stronger. Maybe I'll do something really weird. Like, just eat it like a dog. Then I'll trick my brain. What happens if I lick it? How does it sting the tip of my tongue? Can I like, pre-chew it? - Yeah, you gotta like...
- And swallow it. Yeah, I guess you can. Oh, that is so disgusting! Can you guys see this? Oh, dude...! Nah. I have to be dignified. Brett: Yeah, use the knife. I'm gonna eat it slowly. Dude, it's gonna be so painful! I'm gonna go against my base instincts. It's delicious. Yeah. Mm... It tastes so good! So good you want the rest in one go. *cough* Ugh! Oh man, you did it! I can like, imagine the experience right now. I can't swallow it. That's it. I'm done. All right, let's hope I can answer the last question. "Name a classical musician who rejected a collaboration with TwoSet." Who? Who... "Name a classical musician who rejected...TwoSet." Like, no one? Yeah, no one. Yeah, no one's rejected it. Have we asked a classical musician that said no? No. Yeah, I think they've all said yes. Yeah, they've all said yes. They have? Yeah! - Well, that-
- Yeah. - That's pretty crazy. Wow...
- Yeah, wow... Wow- All right, guys! Lucky me, no last durian. We may or may not recommend you try this. It's a very acquired taste. We hope you enjoyed this episode. I'm definitely gonna throw this out right now. It's gotta go. And please like and subscribe if you like this video. Comment below. Accent the like button. This is going away.
