How to play "How To Save a Life" on Piano Part 1

[junkheadrooster]

IM PLAYING THE SAME SONG IN THE SONG KEYBOARD

[xXLAK24ERSXx]

holy shit i got it

[KUTCHERKID327]

thank you sooo much!!! you have the bessst tutorial on utube for this song! it really helps because i play it left handed and all the other tutorials show the right handed version. this is really good!

[masonbldn]

Hey great vid... Where did you get the sheet music book

[callum1231234]

Get a new keyboard

[cchiliman]

Thanks a latte dude, thanks to your notes, i can finally pick this song's intro in my guitar rather than just strum it. you are awesome!

[AnimeLadybug]

u have no idea how many videos i tried to learn from o,o ur was the most helpful, thanks!!

[aliciah10]

:O wow thank you sooo much, great help :)

[R3LIV31017]

=-= you all except voicedubgang and the good repliers need to seriously shut up.

i easily understood the video man and now i can play it too :) (not as good though)

in other words all haters F OFF!!!

[44princessmonster]

thx u explained it so clear

[21knight21]

at first i thought stephen hawking is the one speaking.. xD

[ninjababy97]

cheers for postin ur a good teacher

[xXxMylittlemiseryxXx]

Awesome video!!!

[Instoryful]

your voice is boooring

[rhonalindsay9]

thanks for posting x

[JoselynSuper]

Genius!

[xOneDirectionLoverx]

this helped, thsnk you :)

[jlomjm67]

hey thanks this helped a lot.! great video.!

[TheLazylizzy]

its okay

[Neofr33ze]

*B Flat

[Neofr33ze]

i find it easier to play the F with the left thumb, the D with your left pointer, and the A Flat with your Left ring finger. it helps you keep better rhythm and to me its much more comfortable

[Ramennoodles626]

3:38 looks like a crab playing piano XD

[skateguitarpiano101]

where di u get the sheet music book at?

[missglitter100]

wow thnx alot this really helped me!!

[LadyWolf7771]

Yay! I'm not very good at piano and am trying to learn without a teacher around so this was very helpful. I love this song and I think he did just fine. Thank you TheVoiceDubGang!

[ethel549]

thanks :) xx

[iamaguineapig]

I don't know extremly much about music, but I do play a bit piano and one thing i have been thaught over and over again is to never speed up when you play wrong, as that will stress you even more. Saying things like "no" or "sorry" when you make a mistake is bad too. Not saying you're bad though, just trying to help. You still rock! :D

[Pepsiholicdude]

u barely practiced the song but ur doing great

[Fireballts11]

you sound like nicholas cage =p

[dominich4962]

Amazing :D 

[xElme1990]

Thanks. I dont have a piano tho. Im using a piano on my ipod. But still works fine. Thanks again

[Hally474]

Thanks very much for this simplified version! Any chance you could make a tutorial for She Is?

[iixwh3l4nxii]

cant you all just fuck off. the only person who has a right to reply to me is voicedubgang himself. the pussy hole.

[TheVoiceDubGang]

@iixwh3l4nxii - I bet you're good with the ladies. Being all nice and charming like this. And a guy who has "i dont read, fool." under Books on his account, I know that I'm up against an intellectual.

[iixwh3l4nxii]

@TheVoiceDubGang at least your FINALY replyd. and that is just a joke, because my friend who is black, said when he was making his profile "niggas dont read, fool" as a joke, and i just kinda copied him for a laugh, but im white so.... and i do read, ive got a fair amount of books, and if you saw my other comments, there not troll comments, im usualy quite nice, i was bored ages ago so thats why i did, but now i see theres no point saying sorry, its more fun to carry it on.

[TheVoiceDubGang]

@iixwh3l4nxii - They looked like troll comments to me. And you just go around posting rude comments on random videos when you're bored?

[iixwh3l4nxii]

@TheVoiceDubGang occasionaly, like 1 comment a month? then it leads to this sort of thing, its a bit of fun in spare time when you literaly have nothing else to do.

[WolfDenn]

@iixwh3l4nxii I don't know what your original comment was, but I can tell you can't read (Dr. Suess and whatnot don't count). In the comment you claim to read a lot, you said "replyd" instead of "replied" and you put "at least YOUR" instead of "at least YOU" and lastly and the worst of them all: you used the wrong form of "they're" when you typed "there". Oh, and around your second line, it appears that you left out an entire sentence. The moral of this comment? YOU'RE a dumbass.

[DianaEpicAwesome]

@iixwh3l4nxii hah u suck LOL

[WolfBeast17]

@iixwh3l4nxii People who read tend to have good grammar. Just saying.

[jlomjm67]

@iixwh3l4nxii can I reply to you please.? lol

[musicman557100]

@iixwh3l4nxii on word-SCREWBAG!

[DANKvideoproductions]

@FlopsyDiggins hahahaha he does!

[TheBlah101]

"...and yeeaahh...see you all later.." Hehe like the end. OMG thank you SOO much for this. When I hear it on the radio it sounds more complicated but u simplified it THANK YOU.And F*ck you iixwh3l4nxwhatever thehellyournameis. I'm tone deaf and its not nice to say retarded, a-hole.

p.s. @thevoicedubgang ur great u really exxplain the music and I have no prior nowledge of piano

[vinceanf]

the F D F at @ 2:00 sounds like Barney lmao

[FlopsyDiggins]

sounds like Nicholas Cage

[kekahkooproductions]

good video very understandable and im not very good at the keyobard but its helped thankss:D!

[devinmoore2365]

after the 2 a's you have to play 2 c's not just one c but other then that it was great::)

[THEMANIAC111]

Same keyboard as me. =) And its awesome how you go through it, thanks.

[jitinagarwal100]

dude... u made it so easy !!! u rock !!!! i mean it i love this song and u played it aweeesomeeee !!!

[XxDaking12Xx]

And he likes wasting his time by commenting a thousand comments on YOUTUBE VIDEOS! Dude. Ur a scrub if u got nothin bye to do. Get a life queer fuck

[XxDaking12Xx]

Wats funny is this faggot thinks I'm begging for something. But I nvr did. His sense of humor is not funny. Mainly cause it doesn't make sense.

[JSE5k4t3]

I like how you just don't cut out your mistakes, it makes the video natural!:) Everybody makes mistakes and you can learn from them. You helped me alot! Thank you very much!

[TheQwesDog]

AMAZING TUTORIAL THANK YOU SO MUCH

[emmywee]

This videos good :) ,, just got a keyboard and cant read sheet music , so ive got to learn of youtube and tis has helped me alot :) thanks xx

[johnaysam1]

hey man real good tutorial thanx a lot im gonna go jam this song thanx to you i just traded an ol weight bench for an awesome keyboard kinda got bored wth the guit-fiddle

[bobishbonca]

your the man i havent played piano in yers and came to this and was able to play it so stoked =] your the man

[CaityBear05]

Thanks much for making a great video, it took me awhile to find a good tutorial. Once I get my keyboard I'm going to try this out. Ignore those haters :)

And to all the hate people, you are so juvenile. If you don't like it then just move on, no need to start lashing out.

[FreshPrinceOfHolland]

Well you kinda simplified the end of the main riff, but it still sounds alright. At then end, at the very last F D F you play a variation of that to go back to the beginning involving the high D you use earlier in the song. So it'd be like:

lowA# /highA# F D F - F D F, lowA /highC F D F - F D F, lowA# /highD F D F - F D F, lowA /highA F D F - C F D highD lowA# /highA#. [And from that note it starts all over again.

If you don't get it, PM me. I might put a video response explaining it.

[TheVoiceDubGang]

@FreshPrinceOfHolland - You seem to know this song better than I do. Haha. Go ahead and post a response if you'd like.

[FreshPrinceOfHolland]

@TheVoiceDubGang Sure, gotta get a cam first though xD. And credit really goes to you. I learned this song a year or a year and a half ago, and if i recall correctly, it was from this video. I just added what i heard in the song. Plus, in the chorus and bridge, instead of playing broken chords, i play them harmoniously, sounds pretty nice, as well.

[Adrien752]

I have the exact same keyboard!!

[Iamthelillizzy]

I wish people would stop whining about how he taught it. Well I LEARNED so thank you dude and ignore the peoples hate comments. I'm not an adult yet I know better than that. Good video i picked up really quick! Hope there's lots more coming.

Oh and the hate people : Cussing doesn't make you sound tough... It makes you sound like you can't speak right

[SchokoEgon]

thank you guy (:

[andssme196]

Thank you for making this video, It's so helpfull :)

P.S. The people that say this video suck are just jealouse that they didn't make this video :)

[rick23y]

u helped  alot thx

[benny5874]

I`ve just started to play piano and this video really helped me - Thankyou so much, its a great video!!!!

[XxDaking12Xx]

Don't you love how there are people who "search for videos all day just to laugh at peoples epic failness". Get a life asshole. Great tutorial!

[iixwh3l4nxii]

@XxDaking12Xx dont beg it lol. "oh look at me i say a nooby comment that a retard could think of and then beg for thumbs up" wow this video is full of lil begs.

[iixwh3l4nxii]

we're not all retarded and tone deaf we realised half way through its f-d-f-f-d-f you dont have to tell us 200 times and restart from the fucking beginning

[TheVoiceDubGang]

@iixwh3l4nxii - Well for those who are retarded and tone deaf, there is this. For the experts, there is the video time slider.

[TheVoiceDubGang]

@iixwh3l4nxii - Then go ahead. I could care less.

[finnian123]

@iixwh3l4nxii Shut up, seriously... not everyone is a little neak like you; I went on this video to check if anyone had put up a tutorial, or done it well, he has... So take your complaining to your own life and stop complaining about other peoples abililty to play piano... you're obviously able to play 754354734534678544 songs by ear ( exaduration retards like you ) - you mug.

[iixwh3l4nxii]

@finnian123 hhahahahaha u tried so hard. but no one gave you a thumbs up ='[ ...

[finnian123]

@iixwh3l4nxii I forgot what I wrote D:

[psufanatic18]

@iixwh3l4nxii sounds like something fun to do in your free time, look around on youtube to make fun of ppl . congrats buddy

[iixwh3l4nxii]

@psufanatic18 congrats accepted.

[UnderTheGun1337]

@iixwh3l4nxii how do u close ur eyes?  whos the dumbass now?

[iixwh3l4nxii]

@UnderTheGun1337 answer ur own question. now whos the dumbass. u lil bitch.

[TheGreatRakatan]

@iixwh3l4nxii This makes you a troll. Just sayin you must have a pretty lame life to actually seek out youtube videos just to post negative comments. Sorry your life sucks but the rest of us like to learn new things like how to play the piano.

[Camy415]

@iixwh3l4nxii I think you have a slight problem with self esteem not  in a good way... you might want to get that checked out.

[iixwh3l4nxii]

@Camy415 "step back you dont know me like that!" xD

[Camy415]

@iixwh3l4nxii Ha Ha okay I had kind of a low opinion of you but your sense of humor seems intact so never mind lol

[kekahkooproductions]

@iixwh3l4nxii if your so 'amazing' at the keyboard, then why did you go on this video? i have seen some of your comments and by the looks of things your life is crap. seriously. wasting your time on innocent people who havent done nothing, it just shows you have no life. unfortunately for you, no one will lash back because they are more mature than you, and wont give you the time of day as you are not worth it. i hope this paragraph doesnt confuse you, as its obvious you failed school. byeeeee:)

[DjLota]

@TheVoiceDubGang thanks douchebag

[Camy415]

@TheVoiceDubGang Ha Ha excellent response I'd like to think I'm not retarded but thanks anyway lol funny

[lvanSanchez]

@iixwh3l4nxii i bet on that you failed by following this tutorial, this tutorial is awesome even if he makes some mistakes xd

[MrRulisrrr]

@iixwh3l4nxii  fuck offffffffffffffffffffffff

[iixwh3l4nxii]

@MrRulisrrr lols you fail your like this "oh i dont know what to say cus im retarded! oh i know lets make a shit comeback like fuck offfffffff" im guessing you put more f's to show how retarded you are

[Liteninlin]

"Actually it's better i think for most people to hear (F-D-F) for some who are struggling in piano solfege from A-G since it's a treble clef this song instead of a bass clef, and i agree that he should start all over for better note pathings and keying" - Liteninlin Music Arts

[K2theA2theTE]

@iixwh3l4nxii

You could just go find another video and actually learn to play the song instead of whining about his different teaching techniques.

[iixwh3l4nxii]

@K2theA2theTE ermm nah go and av a bath!

[UnderTheGun1337]

@iixwh3l4nxii honestly, i have no idea what i wrote, but all i know for sure, by looking at all the comments u have written, ur a lonely little prick

[drumer342]

@iixwh3l4nxii Im not retarted or tone deaf, but i am a beginner pianist, and him going back was very helpful. If you dont like it dont watch it.

[davitaa]

You play it really weird with your hands like that.. (using only your pointer finger and pinky) it's really confusing...

but glad that the rest of the people understood it....

But thanks anyway because i found the missing piece I was looking for!

Keep up the great work anyway!

[MONTAELI000]

[mrrocks3578]

[codieboakes]

LOOK AT MY RIFF I MADE ON MY PROFIL ***

SUB ME I S0b u :):) ADD IF U WANT 2

[skating601]

your hands are in the wrong position.

your left hand is suppose to play b(flat) f d f f d f

and then your right hand does the rest.

[amyandtarathedog]

@skating601 if u already know how to play it, why are u watching it???

[SengKiat93]

This is so good I finished learning before this video even ends.

[dustier01]

thanks!! really helped!

[Iamatreehugger562]

um make up your mind kid, seriously? this video SUCKED!

[Cindygirl253]

thank you you really helped a lot!!!! it sounds just like the song.

[SanitaryGrounds]

no offence but i think you'd find that playing with the two thums would be harder than playing with just the left hand (only the A flat, the D and the F)

[thetizzlefizzler]

@SanitaryGrounds it's different for different people, personally i like using the thumbs more than the left hand...

[SanitaryGrounds]

i learnt this song a while back and started playing it on the piano in a music lesson, everyone started singing along :)

[FireMast23]

could u gave me the notes

ABCDEFG

[Tammy1681]

Thank yoou ;) awesome
