[argon81]

love to see a tutorial !!

[nzeastcoastmaori]

i have been coming back to listen to this wonderful sound and energy that you have, can we have a tutorial for this one, so nice to listen to ...cheers

[projectmedia]

I come back to watch this once in a while, I especially like the salsa style break at around 0:58, oh my, that's particularly good...

[paulwwells]

@projectmedia Thank you for commenting. Yes, that break helps to partition that verse from the others.

[100superspy]

Can you post a tutorial

[gazzag81]

Paul, this is a very good version,will you be doing a tutorial for it as I haven't seen one yet?

[alexhenn1]

Outstanding playin'. Stevie W looking a little unwell in your picture.

[00adri1]

great job. tutorial please =)

[Leemondus]

I notice you sometimes span two notes with your right thumb to get a chord. That's jusy showing off. Great stuff, wish I had the time to get this good :)

[paulwwells]

@Leemondus I do that quite a lot now, it feels natural to use the width of the thumb in that way.

[overtime2005]

[psybonchu]

Have you heard of Cobus? I bet you guys would sound good together..

[MrMusicali]

so awsome! Pretty rare to see this kind of level in playing the piano..

[smithia6]

Thanks for the replay Paul, but I am a none musician, I wish I stuck at something like that when I was young, I am purely a listener of music, so I am not really sure what it is your talking about .... sorry.

[smithia6]

Paul I have been following you for some time now, this is the 1st message I ever sent to you, I have to say your amazing, mesmerising to watch. I would love to see some more of you playing some with a bit of a beat in the background , like this one with be nice to remake with some drum beat.

Keep uploading mate, great to watch and listen to.

[paulwwells]

@smithia6 I used to use the drum machine on the keyboard - the problem is that it pumps out the same pattern throughout and that kills the dynamics. I could sequence a whole drum track, but that would take time (I'd keep wanting to tweak it) and if I was going to do that then why not sequence the bass and free up my left hand. What about a string backing on the 2nd verse... etc etc. So I know what you mean, but it's a slippery slope.

[micha2608]

@paulwwells I'm a piano solo artist just like you ( I own an RD700 sx too ;) ) and I use a program called band in a box to sequence drum and bass tracks trough my piano, via midi. The quality of the program is quite good, it gives you the impression that you're playing with a real drummer and percussionist, maybe you can try it ? :)

[paulwwells]

@micha2608 I bought a copy of Logic so that I could output midi for sheet music production. The problem is the time to do all the sequencing.

[micha2608]

@paulwwells I know, but the band in a box works like an arranger, you just write the chords, pick the style and it will automaticaly generate midi tracks + you can finetune the styles with solos etc. you should check it out it's done in no time ;)

[micha2608]

@paulwwells I knw but the program I use works like an arranger but in a higher quality ;) when you give in the chords it will automaticaly generate drums, bass, guitar, etc. It's quite nice, you should check it out

[ourDC888]

FAN-TAS-TIC! Thank you!

[evkessel020675]

This is one of my favorites, excellent!

[rhecoy2007]

A very nice arrangement...u

[Lamkool]

Listen to Errol Garner's version, it's really cool.

[IdolXfactor]

Nice Paul.....one of your best covers to date I think!

[MertS66]

this is very nice

[Kyobutungyi]

This is amazing! I cannot read sheet music to save my life and have always played by ear. Your tutorials are very helpful. I'm trying to master 'Dancing Queen' coz it's my favorite. Thanks for sharing! Cheers!

P.S Could you play 'Chasing Cars' by Snow Patrol? It's pretty easy but I'd love to hear your version, thanks.

[Rodrigomartinescobar]

EXCELENTE ;)

[projectmedia]

Oh my gosh that's so good! Do you build this up by ear , finding the chords until it works ? Also, I just love what you've got going on with the bass line too... amazing.

[paulwwells]

@projectmedia Thank you you are very kind. Yes - you are right, it is a matter of building up the sound and trying out different things.

[MRJOSHmo44]

YOUR SO NASTY

GOOD GOD I HAVE TO LEARN THIS SONG

[superzamo]

Excellent as always,great to see you back,always think when a bit of time passes that you're not posting up anymore lol

[paulwwells]

@superzamo It is difficult to find the time to learn the songs at the moment, but I haven't stopped.

[lukeUS43]

just as always a very good arrangement of this cover on piano

[northernrob99]

Awesome arrangement and so well executed too. you're bass line skills are excellent :) Rob

[paulwwells]

@northernrob99 Hi Rob. Thanks for your subscription and all your comments.

[arashmotamedi]

Paul, your playing takes my breath away. Thank you for posting amazing videos.

[Palmar3s]

Sir, you have an amazing talent and have seen most of your videos. May I put in a request? Can you do any of these 3 songs by Bill Evans:

Soirèe,

For Nenette

My Bells

Just any one of them, I'm assuring you that they are beautiful and fine piano masterpieces that it would be wonderful for you to play them. Just if you have the time.

-Sebastian

[km426]

Nice carpet :P

Very good playing as usual Paul, keep it up!

[jadesm]

[MrHumbugz]

[paulwwells]

@MrHumbugz Thanks. I've improved in the last five years due to YouTube and having a high quality instrument.
