[gillettecrackers]

He's not Asian!!!

OMFG!

[ResidentBaN]

You could make a girl one of the happiest person in the world with your fingers :P

[LotsOfSox]

Had this in my head all day now... Damn you w3sp >.<

[animefreakadam0]

(german) euta der hatt was drauf genauso wie mein couasa

[th4t1dud3]

1:40 ~ 2:14

I think most would agree this is the best thing to ever bless our eardrums.

[Rodney420Knapp]

fucking epic :D

[keeroyz]

Damn, perhaps this is the most perfect one I've heard for this song.

[drminyong]

super hot.

[artichokeflower]

It's the most beautiful sound touching to keyboard in the several "Those who fight" piano performance uploaded by Youtube.

Excellent !

[Corpsecreate]

The end part where his hands spring back off the keys is the best. I am learning this song atm and it is hard........

[XDXDXDXDXDXDXD]

If you and kyle went head to head...I think the universe would implode.

[ElrickNi]

Just amazing :)

Thanks for this wonderful piece.

[powerofchaos1]

This is so, so awesome.

w3sp, DU BIST DER BESTE!!!

[BillioG]

nice m8!! bravo to ya

[mocopegajoso]

Excelente !

[Darkmelodicone9034]

Perfect

[MemphisAhn]

I'm in awe..

[ThePeterEffect]

Amazing work. I'm learning this song because I was so awestruck by your playing. Well done.

[Shaftsus]

24 absolute pricks I would love to punch in the face.

[LSgraal]

seriously this deserve more views...

[yukinomihara]

you should slow down on some parts... anyhow, you did a great job :D

[shigehitochiba]

Came into work today, and in the mornings before open we play music on the overhead, first song I hear? THIS!

The entire day felt epic after starting off with this.

[Missponybiss]

This is the best version on youtube. Wait- in the whole wide world. I was so inspired by hearing you play this piece, I learned it myself! Almost finished now!

[FxckJaquelineNatla]

what the fuck!!

[ItalianoConfuso]

DEAR GOD, even if i were to try and find something to criticize about this (and I AM), i couldn't find anything. I have nothing. You sir, just won my internets

[iluvKH4eva]

Wow, You're a brilliant pianist, and am amazed you made barely any mistakes! After practicing this for a couple of hours, this puts a really bad strain on my hands...

[CooCurrent]

Excellent, one of the best on YouTube! Also, sounds very nice on this piano, bright, but not too bright - if you know what I mean. Anyway, amazing performance!

[ScouseInTheHouse]

@XeroMaano I disagree. I think the notes sound prettymuch the same, nothing 'important' was missed out of this version. This version also flows better than Kyles. Kyles sounds a bit abrupt and forced at times. W3sp's version definitely has more feeling and flow to it.

[arisa931]

Nice!!

Can I marry you? :D

[floppyfeet426]

hey does anyone know were i can get the sheet music to this piece.

[SleepBeyondTime]

I liked this, but think he plays it too fast.

[steve0ms]

mh... he looks jewish

[gaara98250]

Piano god!

[KrumpetNylon]

i like naruto too

[ROMANTICLOVE09]

SO MUCH FEELING AND EXPRESSION!! LOVE IT!!!

[hunnikay]

OMGGG U ARE SO FREAKING AMAZINGGG

i swear like i got chills the entire time i was watching this. <3 <3

i'm still learning to play thisss blehhh.

[Missponybiss]

of all the final fantasy- those who fight versions here on youtube, your's is THE BEST!!!

[xXDARKHASEOXx]

is incredible, amazing, perfect. u look like a professional!

i have a suggestion for u: could u play aerith's theme on the piano, of ffvii?

[Orpheusftw]

You blew this one away. Really nice work.

[Missponybiss]

sheets anywhere to find?  just502, you said you almost finished this piece, where did you find the sheets?

[Missponybiss]

INCREDIBLE! lost for other words..

[gcjhoffman]

w3sp,

i have been watching videos of you playing for about 3 years now and just decided to make a youtube account. ive always wanted to comment on what an amazing pianist you are, but never got around to it. you truly do mr uematsu an honor by playing this piece so well. you are also the reason i bought a keyboard about 2 years ago, and that i know how to play aerith's theme. so, on a long overdue note, thank you

[theshion005]

Best version I've heard outside of the official cd.

[juandiezgarcia1]

no me canso de ver el video, EREES MI IDOLOOOO!! xD

Estoy aprendiendo a tocarla, y tu eres mi inspiracion jajajajaj =)

[davewiltsher]

ur rather good arent you

[JAYDEE3103]

hypnotically good.

hail from n. ireland - JD

[hmongcanadian]

Now i wanna fight people lol.

[soracosplayer89]

i think i just shit myself

[SuperReggieA]

my fav part starts at 1:42 and ends at 2:12

[bookwiz2010]

@CrispyCC

OMG O.o you are right he does look like CP...maybe he is...and is just hiding it...cause he is trying piano out over writing the conclusion to the inheritance series... but he still has awesome skills!

[anyanythingthing]

Nice, but the I seriously wonder how someone can arrange these notes all together to make such a masterpiece!

[d33eniz]

O_O"

[Fabianzandt]

It sucks that is just aviable in 240p now -.-

[superAZNfreak]

i cant stop listening to you play. you're absolutely amazing.

[DeathZeroTolerance]

Jealous of your piano and quake skills.

Any chance you can do a Sims Build 5 cover?

[CrispyCC]

Rewatching this for the thousandth time now, I realized you have a striking resemblance to Christopher Paolini. Anyone ever told you that? :P

[wumeista4645]

This is the most clear, precise and pure version I have heard so far. You put emotion into your playing, I admire that.

[2fast4u28885]

his fingers are as fast as ten little ninjas

[Vayshen]

Hmm probably going to do this piece for my classic/technique exam in the second term this school year =)

[leethoof]

Thank you so much w3sp. Seeing your videos inspired me to start practicing piano again :D. Now I'm learning this song!

[Onslaught73]

this is outstanding! oh how much i love to listen to the piano.. you did a great job playing that song!

[Peanutz996]

could you du a tutorial for this song like you did with the zelda song?

[Londonlondon1233]

Wow you white nerd. Gtfo. Whitey.

[RandomPinoy09]

@Londonlondon1233 So, playing outstanding pieces of music, let alone an instrument, automatically makes someone a nerd? I thought trolls on the internet were considered "nerds", for example, you.

[DucksAreWin]

@Londonlondon1233

Or you can think about it this way.... think of how good he is with his fingers.

Doubt you could come anywhere close boy ;)

[Endaviour]

W3sp just served Chuck Norris.

[trondy89]

Uh it can just be me, but I'm hearing this faint "bonk" sound from your piano quite often...

[just502]

@trondy89

That would be from the sustain pedal.

[Serenitye]

Your videos inspired me to get my own piano and start playing myself. Unfortunately I cant seem to get my left hand to play independently, do you have any tips or tricks for that? This song is my ultimate goal ^_^

[engun1]

@Serenitye Well, I'm certainly nowhere near w3sp but I used to have the same problem (after having played a keyboard and getting used to simply holding the chords down with the left hand). So much so that I thought I was doomed for ever.

However, I picked up the piano again after a long time and started with extremely simple tunes and ramped up, and lo and behold, my left hand started moving. I recommend starting with Eric Satie's Gnosienne No. 1. Very simple to play but very beautiful.

[TheAznmofo]

okay at least 500 of these views are from me. i've been watching it several times everyday i could for over a year now

[Rofzz]

perfect

[th3mant0th3g0d]

I gotta say w3sp you're the one that inspired me to play video game music Lol. I was usually just someone who played classical and romantic/post-romantic music. First song I learned in video games was this one. Love this song <3 and your playing of course.

[just502]

Almost finished learning this piece! I imagine another 6-10 hours of practice and I'll have the whole thing roughly down. It's so great learning the songs that you once listened to and thought "how in the world can anyone play that.

4 years of playing and counting <3

[w3sp]

@just502: congrats! =)

[ivansegos]

@w3sp fucking hell.. you beast!

[Redon26]

@just502 Hey, may I ask if you're learning it by ear or if you got the the sheet from somewhere? I'd really like to play it too :)

[just502]

@Redon26 The sheet music is all over the place, I actually learned a lot of it from the Synthesia video though -blush-

[Redon26]

@just502 I didn't even notice until then o_O But yeah I found it over google now, thanks anyway :) Good luck practicing it!

[superactive300]

@just502 wow, this is an exceptional song to play for someone who has only 4 years of piano experience. Good for you though, lots a of people just quit and get bored.

10 years and going :)

P.s i also have this song perfected, perhaps I should make a video hehe

[slinq]

@just502 or fight like them :)

[DreadFuLLL1]

@just502 Where had you got the sheets `? I wanna play this epic piece , too ! :D

Btw. n1 playing !!

Ty very much

[griveous112]

Nice playing, but somehow you messed the accel. part on 1:42

and, I hate the sound *dump dump dump* from the pedal.

[kw1ksh0t]

@griveous112 All sounds fine to me

[TrifectaStudio]

I'm responsible for at least 200 of the views on this thing.

[airninja81]

@TrifectaStudio 50 and counting for me :D

[hipufiamiumi]

22 people are drunk

[Andyattube]

Hey, i loved this man. I hope to be able to play this one day.

[rockarcano]

someone have the sheet music for this??

[MrJimErkens]

In all honesty, you look a tad like a geek, but hands down, you are the most awesome geek alive! :D

[superAZNfreak]

i think listening to this is the equivalent of being in love.

[TKOG1220]

@superAZNfreak *Mashes vote up button.*

[Fabianzandt]

Did you learn playing with lessons, or on your own?

[TheIndifferentMind]

@Fabianzandt Lessons presumably. And that certainly does not make this less impressive.

[MrLPandsuch]

a little fast

[BronzeUnicorn22]

Ok, i can't decide which one of your videos is the best.... You are my frickin idol

[hax340r]

Omg i love this and i love how you pulled it off so smoothly and beautifully. Ilove all your vids and i watch them over and over and over ;) .

[hax340r]

Omg this song is the most difficult on piano that i know so far and i am so amazed that you pulled it off so smoothly and beautifully. But if you played it a bit more slower it would be nice. BUT overall soooooo good i watch all your vids over and over and over again

[tearingblade]

@hax340r thats basicly how fast it really goes, one of the things that makes it so freakin hard XD

[AvidHobbyist]

@hax340r you should listen to some liszt etudes if you think this is hard!

[CSPlayerDamon]

@hax340r ...Search for pieces in classical music. I know this is really difficult, but you'll be surpised..:P

[Slizr666]

Your Handshake @ 3:34 is simply awesome ;)

Amazing skills by the way.

[vavine]

I From France And I Think This is The Version The Most Incredible Of You Tube Congrats You are a prodigy !! +5

[1985Trip]

Yo yo got mad skill!!!! Question, what is the last song you played on Final Fantasy Medley (part 1)????

[someonewon]

I admit he is a great pianist, but there's just something about his playing that I don't like.

[xXxnytakasaxXx]

:) thats some real skills lmao i actually want to be as good at that one day lmao

[FreackZz]

ur piano has a freaking nice sounding bass

[BronzeUnicorn22]

@FreackZz I know, it's the best I've ever heard

[1094711]

i love where it stats at 1:44. that part is the easiest but i think sounds the best out of the song

[howard95]

@vasjafortube1 ownt LOL

[jongsong86]

Played this for my school piano recital.

Uh man.. I messed up at 1:25 left hand..

[vavine]

the best version of you tube...+5 :)

[TommytheHollow]

good job. You seemed to be enjoying yourself lol

[skullraven01]

cool

[screamsinfamous]

you see this guy doesn't FUCK AROUND 

[4gottenentity]

Best cover of Those Who Fight I've seen played. ^^

[ad0boy]

Lol at 0:11

[whyisitunable]

@ad0boy Haha for real :P I thought it was cute!

[cowzilla8]

So what if it was sped up. The faster, the better, especially if it's a Battle Theme.

[iluvKH4eva]

i can play about three pages, needs a lot of work, and i am also driving my family insane by playing every waking moment........

[vavine]

Amazing Perfomance °+5°

[jimbookiller]

Mr. Mclovin chillin

[UraNaokatu]

Even though you made a slight mistake at 1:42, you covered it up quiet nicely. BTW the expression is perfect.

[UraNaokatu]

@UraNaokatu

I had to check the the original arrangement to see where the mistake is lol

[TheMuffinCITY]

Awesome performance, you are truly talented. Also you look like Fogle from Superbad lol.

[Renjenku]

GOD i wish i could play this T_T

[FreackZz]

Excellent interpretation, genius speed and can i say a damn good piano can recording system. =.=

you could have gone harder with the fortissimo though, it sounded a little too...soft. and that slight mistake at 1:42 xD

[kevoh98]

i love the part that starts at 1:42 and your whole c hannel is amazing. when did you start playing piano w3sp?

[TFKuploader]

pretty good

[ShadowKaiserin]

the song does justice to the original version, and you sir, did justice to the song. Kudos.

[AnotherSchmoe]

Oh man, it made me enter one of these silly codes to comment and that time it was "catoink" cat oink? Shouldn't it be pigoink? Anyways, great work w3sp. *worship* harhar

[AnotherSchmoe]

Gosh I'd love to be able to play like that, lol.

[trickykid3000]

Nobody can criticize his playing unless they can play it better than him...good luck!!!

I have seen this at least 30 times and without question it amazes and inspires every time. Good work, mate.

[CallMeIzmael]

Thats not the principle on which criticism works though. All those professional critics cannot play better than the musicians they're criticizing.

[trickykid3000]

@CallMeIzmael first, i applaud you for keeping your reply civil.

second, i doubt any of these critiques are by professionals. It just kind of annoys me when w3sp plays something for us to enjoy, FOR FREE, and people still criticize him. i could understand if we had to buy tickets or something. It is so easy to complain and so hard to be a virtuoso, where is the compassion?

[CallMeIzmael]

@trickykid3000

Ah, but there's a difference between

criticizing and complaining! I like to believe

that criticizing is a way to help a musician

notice aspects that were hidden to him before

and get different views on the piece he is playing.

Not that there is a lot to improve on this performance,

don't get me wrong. :)

[trickykid3000]

@CallMeIzmael

I think you have me in checkmate, good fellow. You were a worthy adversary, maybe we will play again someday...

Take it ease

((( d(o_o)b )))

[Bloodylover16]

I tink it was a lil to fast but none the less exelent

[RagnorakTres]

So far beyond epic, it's not even worth calculating...

You sir, are ridiculously talented and skilled.

[AsphyxiatedFrog]

just a liiiittle bit too fast imo... as a whole though, amazing performance =]

[esomismo90]

9999999999/5

[coraz0n]

damnit i need to play ff now! NOW!

[tdubasdfg]

o_O

[414gbg]

amazing simultaneus capacity

[sorara27]

amazing!!! is he pro???

[L4RSLink]

yeah only at 0:34,

but even with that its the best version on utube

[fecaone]

Damn I'm addicted to this video...

[L4RSLink]

iwillbot's level is far beyond w3sp's level.

Only because he has many videos doesn't mean he's better. Unless your talking about Kyle Landry. He has 150+ videos and is good.

[TheAznmofo]

@L4RSLink

*cough* NOT *cough*

[blackened0corruption]

@L4RSLink

it's a matter of preference.

I personally like w3sp's style more, as it isn't as rough with this piece as iwillbot's.

[joelbaste09]

i just commented hehe but to all my surprise they are both good and man thanks for sharing a new piano channel ..cant wait to check out Kyle Landry

[ts0m3]

W3sp's is better.. By a good bit.

[jirbrontel517]

This guy's good. Bottom line.

[fecaone]

This is incredible. 5/5 and fav

[Rofzz]

Right now I want to marry you

[joelbaste09]

see for your self see

[pavelkolp]

i disagree

[joelbaste09]

Hey viewers i can say Iwillbot is betteer than Him i suppose because he did it more nicer, good and in the proper time eg .. slow and fast stuff... watch art supplement by iwillbot on youtube to be AMAZED.... be ready to subscribe , He's only 17 .... this one i can say 4/5 compared to iwillbot 6/5 sorry ( :

[shadow31213]

hey viewers i can say joelbaste09 needs to stop comparing i suppose because it really pisses people off, a dick move and wants to feel special eg .. adverting and insulting stuff... read comment supplemented by Shadow3121 on youtube to be AMAZED.... be ready to lol , He's only 16 .... this one i can say 4/5 compared to Shadow3121 6/5 sorry ( :

[joelbaste09]

Hey i just commented please no f**king , no mister nice guys boiling water ... their both good! even you seems to be good at playing any kind of instrument you like -referring to shadow31213 , hey i like your favorites in your channel...moreover. w3sp rock , i just checked out all his videos and found out his good ... now i have two idols ( : peace

[darkn941]

so what? if you don't like it fk off then?

[Gargos85]

Es increíble, me encanta. Buenísimo. Impresionante. Magnífico. Lo he disfrutado mucho!

[MowLiao]

Wow. xD This is brilliant - don't worry about the notes you've missed and the dodgy parts... it's already impressive enough and to get this perfect you'd have to be superhuman (though I wanna do that... xD)

This has really inspired me to learn this... =P My aim: to play it better than you... (if ONLY... o_o)

[LoserBo1]

1:43.....1337

[TheAznmofo]

i agree with 2fast4u28885... the best part is 0:00 - 3:34

[mathiouz51]

mervelous !!!!!!! i wish i could play this song one day as you play it

congratulations mate

[vasjaforutube1]

w3sp version is very notable for slight differences, he introduces, which made the song much more polished: he changed the 1:42 piece, repeating two accords twice and slightly changing the rhithm thus and also he's perfectly smoothened a piece in the beginning at 0:12! His interpretation is definitely the best ever palyed.

[2fast4u28885]

i totaly agree

[w3sp]

@vasjaforutube1:

I messed up at 1:42 to be honest :-)

[TheAznmofo]

lol if you did, its hardly noticable

[vasjaforutube1]

Lucky strike, nonetheless! xD You enured me to play as you (occasionally) did - 1:42 sounds better coonnected with the next part now. I wonder, did you find a sound engineer to make the piano sound as it does? It's just marvellous!

[Jackpotur]

Nah you didnt youre the bEST THE FUCKING BEST YOURE THE PIANO BEAST :P :P :D CAN I BE your idol ?

only glenn gould above ya...
