  • I learned how to play this song from this video faster than I've learned other just as simple songs from sheet music. Maybe I've always been more of a visual learner anyway. Thanks! Great video!

  • wow this is incredibly easy!

  • third day of learning piano, learning to play, shit is so awesome :) of course ive been playing guitar for 1 year

  • IM SO MADD I JUST FIGURED THIS OUT BY MYSELF and then i find this :/

  • @ccsprinkles921 Pfffftttttttt. You should be really pleased with yourself, that takes skill, and you're training your ear. =) If I could have figured it out by myself I would have been ecstatic.

  • OH MY GOSH. Thank you for this SOOOO MUCH!!! :D :D C:

  • This is really neat. Thanks. Too bad you didn't write the song as well....

  • I'm a teacher at a second chance high school. We want to include all sorts of extracurricular activities adn elective self-paced courses. WHAT A DELIGHTFUL way to visually learn how to play the piano. Your efforts deserve compensation. If you are ever in Florida, please contact me for lunch. 954 646 8246 HappyMathTeacher at GMAIL dot com. I am posting this video to encourage my students to learn some musical instruments (which activates the right hemisphere and balances the brain)

  • Thank you! :D

    I taught myself how to play it :)

  • Thank you!!!!

  • epicness...i can teach myself how to play AND i can sing it TOO!

  • Bb

    is B flat. Or its supposed to be. Im pretty sure.

  • COOL

    

  • can you make a part for the tbone part but on piano?

  • that one part at 0:34-0:36 i can't get...

  • I just did a cover of this! Would love some feedback!

    Check it out :)

  • Can any1 tell me if you can play this song on the iphone iAno?

  • Do you have a sheet music copy of this? This would probably be easier if i read it on sheet music then watching a video

  • the instrument the the back is a trombone, correct?

  • THANK YOU! THIS CHANNEL IS AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE YOU!!!

  • this song is very much like a rag at hearing it first

  • fascinating. what a great illustration

  • This song reminds me of the most beautiful RDH in Oregon!

  • this was really helpful! xxxx thank you!

  • @Vietazn31 I was thinking the same thing, when I heard the commercial I thought it was the show for a second

  • wow. This song sounds like Lenka's "The Show". The piano part is almost identical, it's just in a different key.

  • @VietAzn31

    I agree with you. it's eerie.

  • Thanks a lot for this!!

  • as much as you guys hate, misskay is right, this teaches you a song, not technique.

  • @hawknose10 I'm sorry I was that rude. It was uncalled for. I feel however that your time would be better spent either taking formal lessons or getting some kind of lesson book and teaching yourself through the steps in a book. If you only use videos like this, you only learn songs and not techniques or music reading skills. You are then limited only to songs that have videos. Good luck and I'm sorry for being rude.

  • @misskayleeroo Guess it didn't cross your mind that not everyone can afford to take piano lessons and that MANY famous composers never had a single formal lesson, right?

  • @misskayleeroo Whats the difference from learning how to do it on here or a book

  • People should teach like this more often on youtube, ITS SO EASY TO LEARN LIKE THIS X:< because some people don't know the notes, they just want to learn the music. like me ! (:

  • the piano accompaniment to this song is surprisingly similar... it's a great song, and thank you! :)

  • God bless you piano man

  • @hawknose10 If you're too dumb to know what Bb means, you shouldn't even bother trying to learn to play this song by watching this video. Go take some piano lessons, and learn the basics of piano and music, like what Bb is, then try to use this video to learn this song.

  • @misskayleeroo  You're a mean bitch....

  • @misskayleeroo -- this is actually a simple song, and it could help the person learn. when people start out playing music they like, they tend to enjoy playing the piano more than they would have, otherwise. and you must remember, at one point, you had no idea what Bb was, either. so, instead of belittling someone who obviously wants to learn, it would be wiser to answer their questions, and to tell them *politely* that they should probably enroll in formal lessons.

  • @misskayleeroo for your information... im 6... so im terribly sorry if i dont take advanced piano lessons, infact, im self taught. and im proud of my self. and infact this is my first time useing a vid and i just sound it out by matching the notes i sing to the notes on the piano and im content with doing that. it works really well so you can suck it!

    sorry for that my sis is typing

  • i dont get this at ALL you should at least explain what Bb means! is it a petal, or a way of playing? and im guessing that the C means middle C but when i play it ITS SOUNDS TOO DEEP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i dont get this at all! you dont explain anything and it moves to fast!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @hawknose10 Bb...that means B flat

  • @hawknose10 Just take it step by step. I had to do it. Keep pausing if you have to. Don't get mad.

  • I LOVE this song but cannot find it on itunes. so mad.

  • Almost learned the whole thing, thanks!

  • Do you have a link to the sheet music? My piano isn't next to my computer anymore and I don't have any sheet music myself to write it down.

  • hey, thanks for this! i'm gonna try it out tomorrow

    (:

  • i love this song

  • this is very helpful, especaly the pictures

  • I have no idea why but watching this just made me start laughing and crying at the same time xD This is song is so awesome!

  • Really helped me a lot. =]

  • excellent, love this!

  • thanks for the upload mate. I heard this on the amazon commercial and it was kind of catchy for me so I like it a lot

  • @puertoricanboy2008

    same here lol :D

  • Thanks for the upload :)

  • amazing. thnks a lot

  • well i liked this song when i heard it on the commercial, and thanks to you i can now play it :)

  • Thanks so much for this. It beats trying to figure it out myself! =D

  • that trumpet solo came way out of left field haha idk why but it made me laugh

  • love, Love, LOVE this site!!!!!

  • i believe it paper chains, but when she sings the song it sounds a lot like paper dreams. (I know paper dreams makes even less sense)

  • I wish it was slowed down for learning purposes.

  • Thank you for this :D I love this song.

  • That is amazing.

    <3

    Thanks for this!

    I love this song.

  • LOVE THIS SONG!!! Love her voice!

  • Oh god this is gonna be so helpful <3 I jsut got a keyboard to learn piano on. And I LOVE this song. thanks so much~

  • I don't know how to play the piano, but this song is so fun, I love it!!!!!!

  • this song should truly be on itunes ... lol i love it

  • are those eighth notes or quarter notes?

  • for most of the song you can think of the bass note and chord as alternating eight notes, 1&2&3&4&, where the bass on the beat and the chord is on the '&'.

  • yes but the last note is a eight note

  • @motto25 there's both but howtoplayonkeyboard's correct on the count.

  • @motto25 eight maybe i think

  • *****5 stars :D

  • Luv it! Thanx a bunch...

  • This is great! How do you do this? What program do you use? When are you posting your next tune?

    Thank You!

    mrsc

  • What key is this in?

  • song is in Bb

    in Bb, B and E are both flattened

  • NO ITUNES!!!!!

  • finally! someone who understands clarity :D

  • Thank you SO much!! I was looking for something like this!!

  • Do you have the sheet music for this?

  • Very easy tutorial.. thank you so much.. i love this song(:

  • THX!!!

  • I love this song XD

    I feel like there should be clapping at the end... hehe

  • @MidnightMusic14 there should !

  • Thank you.(:

  • so i saw the commercial for this and loved the song but i forgot what the commercial was for. it took three days for it to come back on...THANK YOU FOR POSTING THIS!!

  • same here :P

  • Thanks =) Been going crazy about this song for a few weeks now lol

  • i can play this on the piano now

  • sounds so much like Lenka

  • Your rite!

  • "speak to me in foreign tongues, tell your secrets one by one" how genius!

  • Thanks for this :D

    Just a couple of questions though, what's the meter (I'm guessing 3/4 or 4/4, but I'm not exactly sure) and key signature, it was going a little too fast for me to guess.

  • this is 4/4 time, tempo ~ 130bpm, song is in Bb

    in key signature B and E are both flattened

    if you want to pick out the melody, remember you are in Bb key and start on D as:

    Sil(D)-ver(Eb) moons(D) and(Ed)

    ... ...

    ways(D) to(C) go(Bb).

    have fun!

  • thank you so much for this!! :D

  • oolalas(:

    but a little too fast.

    goodjob i guess !

  • @BarelyxBeating its the speed of the song. That 'pause' button is a tricky one to get used to, i know.
