Don't Stop Me Now - Piano Tutorial (Intro)

[magicmaggey90]

Sounds pretty awesome

[bundr]

Thank you so much for this!

[Cyberowen]

What keyboard are you using please? nice job



[Hairboy01]

@Cyberowen a Yamaha Clavinova CLP-170

[Cyberowen]

@Hairboy01 Thanks man. I have a cheap yamaha but it has got no weighted keys or touch sensitive, feels worlds away from a real piano. Can you suggest something please? obviously yours sounds really good from the video. Keep up your playing and thanks for the tutorial - helped me a lot!

[Hairboy01]

@Cyberowen The Yamaha I'm playing in the video actually belongs to my mother, I don't really have any experience in buying pianos or keyboards. I would say do a little research into Yamaha and Roland, then try ebay, look for 88-key, weighted keyboards, second hand shouldn't be a problem. Don't get a Casio, they sound like a calculator.

[Cyberowen]

@Hairboy01 haha lool I wonder how a calculator sounds ;) thanks a lot for the advice - will do a bit of research. thanks again and keep up the good work

[Philfryfueyfoyfon]

@Hairboy01 LOL, i just bought a Casio xD

[eenayeah]

Oddly enough, this is a good tutorial even if there is no one talking.

[FreDDie707f]

awesome! nice! thank you! )))

[HappyPeopleEatCows]

3:17 same bit in Bohemian rhapsody if you listen carefully.

[nickizzo5]

@HappyPeopleEatCows Lol nice. Check out "love of my life" by Queen, some of the piano parts are extremely similar to Bohemian Rhapsody. At least I think so xP

[Ruberick28]

great videos, dude. you just got me laid

[SlashWorshipper1993]

I need a piano but I have no where to out one, I would learn this right now if I had room for one... :(

[bensiemaszko]

thanks this was really helpful i learnt it in no time!

[softprimus]

good play...:-D



[Nekojack111]

lol hit the 1911 button!!!!

[MrMiniStout]

Can somebody please write down the chords for me?

Like the first one is an F chord: FACF,

can I either have names of the chords of the notes in each one?

The video helped alot but this would help so much more^^.

Thanks

[jmchau66]

Thanks heaps. Came in very handy for my band.

[niggedizzle]

u shudve kept up the popups thingy where u wrote down the notes.. but still,great job man,thanks for that

[AddsMusical]

awsum work man !! :)

[acewarrior111]

man, this is incredible!!!

thxthxthx!!!!

[TheBiscuitx]

Thanks.:)

[ATown31061]

I realy like it!

[che6076]

which are playing in octaves?

[Hairboy01]

@che6076 the left hand plays octaves only for the intro

[SimShaDoW92]

My turn to begin learning this :D As you said it's not always very clear, but great job anyways man :) Atm my hands are not enough relax to do right hand fluently =) I'm sure with work it will come

[8000cheese]

fuck this is hard

[8000cheese]

godamn i am terrible at piano

[maikerumomo]

thanks!!

[saprando]

wow this is awesome.

[baileaf08]

@Hairboy01 Nice one mate. Very helpful. Good work. All the best from Wales, UK.

[LolYesIam]

ARRRRRRRRRRRRGHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! FUCK! I CAN'T! :'(

[SimShaDoW92]

@LolYesIam As they said previously: practise !

[adventskalender04]

Ok i can play the complete INTRO now! Very easy!

[adventskalender04]

BEST TUTORIAL EVER!!!

[tdrider2008]

Just wondering, i dont play the piano would it be hard to learn this?

[Hairboy01]

@tdrider2008 Well musically its quite simple, I think that if you watch enough tutorials and just work through it at your own pace you will learn it easily enough

keep at it

[adventskalender04]

@tdrider2008 I don't play Piano too... no it isn't hard I think I can play it till 2:50 now.

Maple Leaf Rag was harder.... But I'm also very talented... But I'm sure, that you can learn it, if you practise hard enough. In this tutorial is everything you need ;)

[tdrider2008]

@adventskalender04 thank you for your support

[klikko2]

@tdrider2008 You just need to keep watching and practicing. Learning piano is easy if you just spend some time playing it. The hard thing about piano, is learning the notes. Else, it's just watch and copy.

[cipumba]

oh my god it's perfect!!!! I needed it! now I can pretend to sing playing the real song! xDxD! yeah!!!!!!!!!

[NetrexTech]

this songs seems so hard when looking at it but i followed your tutorial and found out that it's all about chords.. I learned to play the whole song in 1 hour and 15 min.. Now i just need to practice to play it in the original tempo.. Thanks for your tutorial :) You can improvise the song yourself once you learn the chords hehe :)

[Sk8OrBreakYourSpleen]

the Sheet Music is available at "scribd" FOR Frreeeeeeeeee

[Hairboy01]

@Sk8OrBreakYourSpleen I'm aware of that, I use scribd a lot, but when I uploaded the video I had a look at the sheets and they were quite different to the ones I used to learn the song; nonetheless, I'll put the link in the video description

[Sk8OrBreakYourSpleen]

@Hairboy01 I'm pretty sure the scribd version is the actual part they use in the real song, but who wants to learn that? No one cares about the background piano part in a song, they want to hear the melody.

[Hairboy01]

@Sk8OrBreakYourSpleen it is irrelevant whether they were used for the actual song or not, my point was they werent the ones used for this tutorial

[CapnPeanut5271]

Finally finished learning this part, working on verse now. :3 Thx for the epic tutorial.

[LowFlyer1200]

Looks like a tutorial to me and a good one, too. I'm getting the hang of this piano thing pretty well thanks to all the kind and helpful tubers who take the time to make these lessons.

Appreciate the effort.

[CapnPeanut5271]

the annotations helped me a LOT...but you stopped doing them after the first few seconds...so i got lost. could you perhaps put them back up? i cant see your fingers too well, but i know which keys are which notes.

[Hairboy01]

@CapnPeanut5271 well yeah i thought it would be a good idea but once i realised what a mammoth task it was i kindve gave up :S i can try again though since ive got nothing but free time now that ive finished school

[CapnPeanut5271]

@Hairboy01 thatd be great man. ive got most of it down up til the higher notes where i have no idea what the hell im doing. :3

[Bebas8]

dude...your tutorial i was able to learn it but...this is not much of a tutorial...even if it has the pause button its too fast to be one...its good but too fast for beginners

[Hairboy01]

@Bebas8 i apologise, im not the best tutorial maker i guess >.< glad you managed to get the hang of it though :)

[randomgurl1010123]

what level is this song?

[Hairboy01]

@randomgurl1010123 not a clue, i wouldnt put it too high up though, once you learn you realise its relatively simple

[RichardSwinburne]

tbf you all say its hard to follow cause its too fast...pause it?

[Hairboy01]

@RichardSwinburne give this man a nobel prize

[RichardSwinburne]

@Hairboy01 glad to be of a service

[wedgyman1]

@Hairboy01 yea cause no one else could figure that out

[26Jujube]

Thank you so much :D Now I can play it :D And, for the one who don't follow, there's a pause button :)

Sorry for my bad english :)

[RichardSwinburne]

@26Jujube i was gonna say that but you've said it for me ;)

[xxxxxPippinxxxxx]

okkk, youre really good but i could NOT follow, and i do play piano so im not totally not understanding it was just WAAAY too fast D:

[Hairboy01]

@xxxxxPippinxxxxx my bad, sorry :S but dont worry there are other tutorials on youtube, i hope you learn it somehow :)

[7giless]

this is very useful but my keyboard is not a low one

[grimchain]

i think it would be better for the close up song if you just played it through except slowly cause this is really confusing

[Hairboy01]

@grimchain hmm perhaps, but dont worry there are other tutorials out there :)

[grimchain]

Wtf he adds a part in the slowed down version

[Hairboy01]

@grimchain where abouts?

[grimchain]

@Hairboy01

Nvm that comment. Im dumb

[LiseOBJECT]

GREAT!

[LordotheMorning]

My ultimate musical fantasy is to be able to play and sing this song. You've brought me a step closer, and for that I thank you.

[oinkof]

THIS IS THE BEST PIANO TUTORIAL

[coconutsurvivor03]

woww thank you so much!! i learned how to play ittt :]

[wildgirl142]

[pashleys]

[Hairboy01]

@pashleys no, yamaha clavinova CLP-170

[mrtorchwoodtom]

[sjlarcadia]

[staplezlleachoo]

Dude, Amazing tutorial.

After watching it like 30 times i pretty much got it xDDDDDD

But thank you very very much for posting this!

[60mangers]

[memuerocaca]

este video es increible, re facil de aprender por que te explica re bien. gracias,, me re sirvio

[SuperGreenDot]

where did you get the sheet music for piano?

[Hairboy01]

the link is in the information box on the right

[MrShehryar007]

@Hairboy01 I know it's a lot to ask for but... Canu just make the tutorial just a tiny bit slower, i would really appreciate it

[StrangerYouKnow]

AHH! HAND CRAMPS! Thanks for this video so much!

[SuperGreenDot]

GREAT!!!AWESOME!! its amazing how you play it!!

[sambolina2]

Can you please do a tutorial on "I wish I knew how it felt to be free" by Nina Simone. All your videos have been an amazing help. Sam

[holliepophehe]

hey this is sooo cool, this is from the We Will Rock You book right? i was playing this just a min ago :) its strange to see what it looks like xxx carry on playing your really good :D x

[Bidooshram]

There is also no need to know how to read music, such tutorials are made especially for those who don't know or don't know well.

[Bidooshram]

Sheets music for this song can easily be bought on the Net or in any music bookstore. This is the case for most Queen's songs, a lot of them being very famous. So no special need to ask for sheets on youtube.

[oinkof]

not good....PERFECT !!! ,,,THAT'S MY FAVORITE QUEEN SONG ...THANKS A LOT ..WHOEVER YOU ARE .

[Hairboy01]

@oinkof; youre very welcome, im glad youre using it :)

[oinkof]

@Hairboy01 ...thank you for the welcoming...but i am not using it yet...HOPE SOMEDAY !..I JUST BOUGHT A KEYBORD FOR BEGINNERS ( CASIO CTK496) BUT I THINK I WILL BUY A REAL PIANO ...MUSIC IS PART OF MY LIFE !

[Hairboy01]

@oinkof yeah id definately get a real piano if i were you, theyre much nicer to play :)

[claideg]

Will you please send me notes too???

[patsyohulaghan]

will u please send me notes...?

[carlosarios]

Good job man; like a professor for free.

God bless you

[MrsAbbyJonasxo]

C D F# E C F# etc..

[jvds93]

[MLGRevon]

[irishidiot1]

[Hairboy01]

lol dont worry about it, i could have made this way better but last year i was self conscious of my voice so i didnt feel like doing an in-depth tutorial.. i would do one now but i would lose all the views and comments :D

[stanphoenix]

Very gud tutorial ..but 1 pls go slower next time...for non- piano players like me becomes a bit difficult at this fast pace

abbotts

[kukin33]

te amo

[jungleboogie78]

great fucking tutorial m8. Tx!

[Kimtheevil]

Good playing, but you are playing it too advanced for others to catch up, it would also help if you did some audio commenting for this aswell as I have real trouble following yor playing, but good work.

[rvsantys]

Un tutorial excelente, Gracias por enseñar!

[alyssa159357]

This is great, but I can't stretch my fingers that far. I have tiny hands :P

[shares5]

Heh, i have the same problem.

It means i can't play the left hand.

:(

[alyssa159357]

Oh yeah, same here! I try, but it just sounds horrible.

[milanstroke94]

[McDania]
