Pure Imagination

[BoReescano]

Is there any possible way that you could tell us a few of the chord changes? I have tried to follow your fingers but it is just impossible, especially for a beginner like myself! Any help would be greatly appreciated by me and the rest of your fans!

[hellokittykilla]

THAT WAS JUST PURE TALENT!

[drnotes630]

[rtwoodlands]

[TuxNTopHat]

i had more fun watching you play than listening to it.

you are quick with ye fingers.

[Se0ultrain]

This song could just as easily be called "Waxing Nostalgic" thanks for a great video.

[babycakez84]

I cant even explain how much i love this... Your style is unlike any other. ive been playin piano for about 12 years and i wish i could play like that!

[realblonde411]

That's just fantastic! - Wish you had a nicer piano to give you justice :) Well done.

[Naiym1]

I'm bawling over the fact I chose sax over piano.....This is SO beautiful..I'm taking piano for SURE this is amazing and inspiring!!!!!

[eyepatch75]

@Naiym1 piano is the basis of instruments. personally, I would prefer someone learn piano before other instruments.

[giniusg]

This is PURE genius! So inspiring, I'm going to go practice so I can get this good now :P

[gottamatch]

[patdrummer]

I have to say, Ive seen many people play this tune but no where near to this level. This is just brilliant.

[bigtallkeith]

Pure inspiration to aspire to, with lots of imagination!

[AthenaRage]

spider hands... amazing.

[dondijazz]

You have very big hands! Looks like you are a concert pianist and your lines are very classical! Good job! Can you try a jazz version? I know you can do it!

[ShytHapp3nzz]

how can anyone dislike this vid ??

[PurniQles]

This is going in my favorites for sure :) Real tight man.

[OperationThrash]

WOW!

[EmalineBlack]

Hope you don't mind if I transcribe sections of it? I'm going to be working with an after-school-music-enrichment-­group of grade-schoolers, and the theme is pure imagination... I'd like to be able to get some wow-factor off a song they may or may not otherwise think is as cool as it IS.

[SeanMConrad]

jazzer :) I appreciate you man, you are one cool cat.

[1StopMusic]

i think you should make music and sell it! you're very talented! :3

[fool232323]

Wow dude that performance just made my bad day into a good one. I Hope I get as good as you one day(=

[c3s0fr3sh]

I Am In Complete Aw Whenever You Have A Show I Have To Come WOW!

[tababoytedge]

love it!!

[MetuNtr]

First, that was absolutely amazing. The best version I've seen of a home version. Second, I'm looking at a visual of a person playing with ten fingers, but it sounds as if there's at least another thirty playing.

Third, I LOVED how you stayed true to the original opening of the song. It just made it that much more whimsical. Lastly, where are you hiding those extra thirty fingers???

Amazing. How long have you been playing?

[o0Niko57940o]

I love your style: It reminds me of Rachmaninov and Liszt.

[jsmithr56]

the overhead view makes me appreciate this even more, youre amazing :)

[Democrat64]

A very gifted pianist... you play very nicely. The song and the movie, itself, from which it derives, speaks to that segment in us that relishes, yearn, hunger to prolong the innate innocence of our being. An innocence we, sadly, gradually relinquish with the passage of time. I think it also reminds us just how pure and magical the imagination of child truly is. Splendid job, sir.

[ForgetToFallDown]

Oh my God. This brought tears to my eyes. This is simply magical. You sir, are a WONDERFUL pianist, and I hope you continue to inspire people the way you just inspired me. =)

[esquirephillip]

you are gracefully insane playing the piano and i haven't even gotten to talking bout your rendition of the song......fabulous, simply fabulous!!!!

[YTHasHilariousVideos]

[tubamiked]

[mrchristian27]

Simply incredible... A little jazzy for my tastes but that was incredible... your runs are so fast and smooth I'm jealous... Great!!!

[jpresh1]

I echo the sentiments of the previous posters. You really are good. Great touch, perfect dynamics, and so much feeling. Love it!

[coolmasterskincare]

If you watch really, really, close; you will notice his lips never move and not once do his fingers leave his hands. :)

[krispy432]

Great rendering of one of my favorite songs of all time. Out of curiosity, do you have a lead sheet or list of chords that you're structuring this around? I can't really find a good one anywhere, if you can give me a starting point I'd really appreciate it.

Once again, great interpretation.

[SirChristianMusic]

This is absolutely amazing. You are one of my favorite pianist on YouTube! Wow... wow! 5 stars, favorited, already sub'd :-)
