[Paul8301]

@Occultfan: Well it is easy for him, because when you practise a song very well. You

[ilovethereadyset122]

you suck



[EnragedSephiroth]

That piano is now priceless.

[Xtrandom]

MARTIN LEUNG FTW

[Occultfan]

Simply awesome, how the fuck is it easy to play blind folded? It ain't, he did the song and the coins blind folded, how the hell did he find the right keys!? And no, not every person should be able to play blindfolded, stop talking shit

[st0n3dst4ts]

blah... ray charles did this shit way before him....

too soon?

[lemonlovestea]

starting from 1:28 .. is that like collecting coins???:D!! SO FREAKN CREATIVEXD AWESOMEEEE

[soulvibe2007]

All piano players should be able to this if they have learn't the song there playing proper.

[kyle556owns]

Its actually very easy to play blind folded >_> but actually learning the song is the hardest part on my opinion T__T.!

[kokkoleouf]

ENCORE UN CHINOIS

[fabiancarlos]

asu ke buenaso

[db34763]

my brother in law does the coins and 1 up on piano when he does bowsers castlel lol and he dont mess up when he is blind folded !!!!!!!!

[weetyr]

the coins part..ahaha! but man.omg -.-

[Mouaronian]

Damn and i cant even play with two hands with no blindfolds lol

[neohfv]

I like de coins

[KhmaiBodian559]

Your a phoney! a big fag phoney!hey everyone! its a big fat phoney!

[Klassenclowen97]

cooooooooooooooooooooooolll

[snow4tolifeends]

lol the laugh at the end

[Dramandoee]

höhööhö xD

[shaunkings]

He scared the shit out of me at 1:28

[MidtownMadness1]

HAHAHAHA

[username1p]

i hate this song so much, i hate the guy who wrote this, it is evrywhere and annypying the hell out of me.

[umbreon69]

wow...

very nice..!

mario rocks!

\m/

[MrKordz4dayz]

mushroom @ 1:28 LOL

[Slizgaczek]

he :D awesome ^^

[adichas]

wow some of you guys are real haters. In life nothing is perfect, if it was then how boring would that be? Saying "to play that song is easy if you learn the notes" is like saying its easy to paint the Mona Lisa if you know what colours to use. Just accept something for what it is and appreciate that the dude knows how to play well.

[Myrealteck]

Only the people who made the game have to be that good. 5/5

[chriis024]

LOL thats good as.

[zsicherman]

the guy can definitely play...he just needs to sit with a metronome for a year until he can play without speeding up and slowing down every other measure. good stuff though

[Manx123]

He had a couple mistakes.

[chriis024]

Blindfolded ;\

[loser0loser]

thats bad ass i think.........give the guy some credit.

[AaronIsFtw]

Pianoorganman, he could've fucked that up easily even if he knew the keys very well.

[animalgirl117]

Cool. But he was probably looking down at the keys.

[derprstr]

he is not looking at the keys. Fingering is all you need to do this. When u are memorizing the piece get the fingering and when u playit without looking your fingers know where to go. I do it all the time its not hard

[gali55555]

@derprstr then you try it and make a video. :P

[st0n3dst4ts]

@derprstr thats what she said

[zeldagirl1996]

@derprstr yeah but most people dont know that thats why it seems amazing I understand what you mean though seeing as i also play piano

[littleblueleprecorn]

@derprstr thats what she said

[PuncturedPrincess]

Why can't you just accept that someone is actually good at something? I can type with my eyes closed but I was probably just looking down at the keys...

[animalgirl117]

Yeah, but he was blindfolded. You can't see through your eyelids!

[PuncturedPrincess]

If you are *that* good then no, you don't need to see. And if you had an ear for music, you could hear his mess-ups.

[animalgirl117]

I just said one thing, and you have to get all upset. Gosh. And here are words you need to remember from my post: Cool. (and) /Probably/.

[PuncturedPrincess]

wtf?

[pianoorganman]

eny pianist can do that if you know your keys

[paareelapore]

awsome!!

[AxelSGIU]

he must be very proud of himself

[CaptainChocolatte]

I saw him at video games live here in the UK. Couldn't believe it. O_o

[XRvd15X]

these japanese ppl are awesome

[dsade]

he's not japanese.

[mn8385]

He's Chinese.

[dougthedude52]

Ray Charles and Stevie Wonder would be real impressed.

[teabagnose]

i met him and that guy from the start

[videogameman5]

WOW i didnt hear a mistake

[colormetafora]

I did, at 01:03.

anyway, I think is a silly thing this "blindfolded playing"

[eastvoltresearch]

Playing notes correctly is something anyone can do. Playing it musically is a whole thing altogether. I agree - everything this guy plays sounds the same.

[Dlux2007]

I'm all for him learning this tune and playing it blindfolded, but seriously, the "expressive" tempo changes are not in the original. Try to tap along with the tempo to the game, really easy, to this impossible. Every video of this "amazing" guy is the same.

[69e5d9e4]

Don't worry. He's shootin for his Masters at Yale. Wait till he's in the concert halls, there will be plenty of videos of him playing classical music. :D

[farfarawayway]

lol

[HeyItJayson]

lmfao at bojicalvar

[Bogicalekvar]

i hate, i hate this song, because i always loose

[Coltrane1011]

great job with the song but it's not exactly a talent to be able to play without looking at the keys. most profesionals don't.

[JLx14magic]

thats no big deal. lot of famous piano play can play with out looking at the keys. my friend could play the piano upside. (hes the one upside down not the piano)

[Heyitstan]

if he can do so easily, then why don't you make a video of your friend playing this song blindfolded with all the extra game effects.

[davidzeke]

ghahahah

[max29297]

lol what the crap?

[bell100000]

sweet

[bboycrashin]

its relli not a big difference ifyour blindfolded its liek talking with your eyes closed =/

[Chao5bringer]

that's hard, lol

[yebster95]

actually it is very easy to play blindfolded if you memerize the keys. i should know lol ive played for 4 years. now the song is somewhat hard

[Chao5bringer]

i was talking about speaking with a blindfold....It was a joke.

[grrcoolio123]

that was craz good!!! hat son is hard to play while looking at he keys, bt bindfolded? tat was s cool!!!! rock on!

[carlorowan]

I play piano too, and it doesn't really make difference if u play blind folded or not =/

[Omarllll]

Yep just repeat and repeat...

[chrisphp]

Agreed :) You just subconsously know where the keys are and if you dont you feel for the black keys :P

[StrawHatKirby]

1:28

That scared meh! xD

Amazing, I love this guy. :D

[300076379]

cute + funny random thing they're doing....???! XD hahahahaha! love the music!!!

[JJhacker94]

that was really good!

[ISUAN940404]

bery good nice

[Rockerman52]

i saw this guy at the video games live concert. It was awesome!!!!

[awesomehinata]

HIYA!! i am christopher salmons daughter, you know the one guy who helped make advent rising i was at your video games live show!! this was so KEEEEWLLL!!!

[hellspiano89]

LMAO that was effin cool >:D

[Daisyoshi]

I liked those coin effects...

[sangregranate7]

cool

[m0t0fr3ak]

waaw video games tour! :D :D

[xkati007x]

cool

[PointSwimmer]

i didnt hear any mistake except that he paused for a split second

[nerdyapple]

I think one of the chord was slightly wrong but its still really good

[blanka1990]

he made 1 mistake, but amazing

[jonthee424]

what mistake ?

[sakurahater1356]

That's awesooome!

[iamlegend128]

his left hand isnt that fast when he´s blindfolded

[froggybee13]

michaeldegorio do u even play piano

cause when you are jumping 2 different parts of the piano it is very hard

[Blueman019]

lol

[simbodoot]

awesome

[michaeldegorio]

playing blind folded its not hard because you memorize the piece.

[FREEASTHESTARS]

dude you are sooo good that was absolutely amazing thanks 4 posting!

[slawter2k7]

this guy i sexcellent but he is mad lol

[TrueShinobi17]

ISNT THAt THE VIDEOGAME pianist?

[Blargh0807]

Uhmm...

its not that hard playing with a blindfold on.

since once you have played piano for a while. you know exactly where the keys are just by reaching for them.

so blindfolded isn't so surprising. =)

just a comment

[hkgordon18]

You should watch this one

watch?v=dFZki6TcY4w&feature=re­lated

It is insane

[bonehead198831]

To blargh your absolutly correct. I was taking piano lessons and the instructor told me that you will learn to play without looking. like typing on a keyboard.

[Marittiram]

Amazing!

[bronco1230]

He is very good but da end bit stuffed it up

whe he played da higher keys other den dat it was great!

[trafficsafetylights]

i know any one can learn the mariosong but blindfolded, wow. ur amazing

[MMLeung]

Thank you. I am typing this blindfolded.

Martin

Cleveland, Ohio

[BobMcJoe1]

llllllllmmmmmmmmmaaaaaaaaaaaoo­ooooooooooooo

[infamuzblayze]

So am i im typing this blindfolded lol hahah wasup youtube lol im the best yeaaaaaaa haha lol

Ps Infamuz Blayze

[oksanabella]

Hello there,

I saw on your site you like piano music so I thought I'd introduce you to my channel. I upload a new video each day, all types of music. I hope you will like it and subscribe to it.

Thanks so much.

Oksana

[AsianBoyLvr]

OMG!!!! that was soooooooooooooooooo COOL!

i wish i could do that! and the guy was an asian!! who knew!!!?????????? AHHH THEY ARE

SO SMART!!!!!!!!!

[nikoltsidis]

Hey i have been playin the accordeon, and i never look at my fingers... The blindfold was unnecessary, though the song is really great!

[nickbfn1]

he is really good

[danyalmont]

I agree with Daniel even I can do that

[Daniel78219]

Was the blindfold necessary? Alot of people can play musical instruments without looking at their fingers.

[niftyat12]

very good that guy has 2 much time on his hands lol

[diablo850]

the guy is awsome in other video where he learned super good and fast

[heituzi]

I'm more impressed with how quiet the audience was. If only Chinese could behave that way.

[crzygrl4u]

Uh...chinese aren't loud audiences o.o (maybe those that u know are, but u can't really generalize like that...its racist)

[loulouki1313]

He made some mistakes, but it was good...

[Blazencutie28]

pretty cool, but when you play piano your not suppose to look at the keys anyway.. but thats pretty impressive cause not all the keys are in the same area

[carloscapg]

me la pelan todos

bitch

[bradl06]

People play the piano without looking at the keys all the time dont they?

[laxboard00]

not really, some people look at music, other keys... it's hard not to look when your hands are moving around a lot

[crzygrl4u]

depends. If you memorized it, and play it well...you don't really need to watch. I play by feel, some play by watching. Either way, pianists are mostly trained to play without looking at their hands (OR AS LITTLE AS POSSIBLE).

[barbyjns]

wonderful!!

[MarioMan159]

sweet love the vid

[gaaronclarke]

see thru hat u dum dums

[juls750]

theres this other video with no mistakes and its better and hes blind folded too

[dudelane]

I LOVE THAT SONG! it was so good! yea there were a few mistakes but it still rocked dude! keep up the good work!

[KeatChan]

Yeah a few mistakes, wow.

He stills plays the theme really well, AND he's blindfolded. How about you try and do that and we'll point out the mistakes on you?

That was so amazing!

[MusicChannel123]

lol

[chorosebavillero]

me chupa la poronga joputa

xD

ta weno chao

[keneke45]

I counted exactly eight also

[ladulaser]

While I CAN detect some dissonaces (just started playing on a keyboard that I bought, partially thanks to inspiration from this guy), he is still awesome.

[memelito]

he mean to make those mistakes...

[iBiTEsoWATCHiT]

GUYS! FOR HEAVENS SAKE! who cares if theres mistakes? CAN U DO WHAT HE JUST DID?

no.

I play piano. i hear the mistakes. but who cares!

[darrenhee]

kia ora, martin leung is the best!

[Filiforme]

piano mastery!

i'd like to see vids of jojeta2 and mario54671 in the next month with NO mistakes! but im the kinda guy that likes the impossible! :)

[mario54671]

im not saying i can do better, but i can hear the mistakes.

[wagggggg]

still fucking hard

[Gamer100gs]

I saw this guy last night at Video games live at the kennedy center.

[416BALARAM]

very impressive, but the part where he tried 2 make the coin sound with high notes was a total disaster, and as many people said, he DOESNT have any sheet music, he was only blindfolded 2 show that he knows EXACTLY where each key is

[Sam0raiX]

Look at ray charles and stevie wonder its not so surprising blind people can play piano these days lol

[legof2]

dang. only 3 mistakes, but dang.

[mario54671]

no there was way more than 3, WAY more.

[mario54671]

there was 8 mistakes.

[wagggggg]

i dont play piano as good as this kid, but i can hear the mistakes too

[mario54671]

u got good ear, nobody ever hears mistakes, people always say that he plays it perfectly but there's always mistakes he makes, even on his recordings, the air platform theme was played really slow, he still made like 5 or 6 mistakes.

[krazykittens]

Not that hard. You play te piece w/o looking at your hands, the memorize it...

[tubamanaaron]

LOL not that hard. it is hard. i bet it took more than a day to do that

[jojeta2]

lol so anything that takes more than a day is hard?... it took me one week to transcribe the mario themes

[pretender670]

can someone please send me the sheet music for this... and by the way this guy is awesome

[Sorrow316]

if you take a look... he has NO sheet music....

[edd5190]

Yes, but to know it blindfolded he has to get the sheet music (in this case he wrote it by ear, amazingly) then he learns to play blindfolded.

[Sorrow316]

ahh haz

[jojeta2]

to know it blindfolded means he's practiced it enough to just know it. you know? finger memory? it's not that hard to work a song out by ear though just takes time.

[tubamanaaron]

yep, playing piano is like typing on a keyboard, once he has the song memorised im sure he can play it blindfolded :P LOL no hard to work out a song by ear. ur stupid. of couse its hard. why does it take time if its easy?

[jojeta2]

no it just takes time, you know? I meant it's not difficult, just time consuming, and that doesn't make it hard. just think of a melody, get your instrument and try to get it, not hard right? just time consuming... don't call me stupid....

[wingedkunoichi]

That's amazing! x3

[AzNBoYToMmY]

It was great. But I think the Refugee comment was a bit too much.

[EmoHokage]

intresting... lol do it again HAHA... this is awesome man.

[xDuhhxItsxMex]

kewl beans =)

[SkiddyBlade]

This clip keeps stopping in the middle.

[iceagestar]

Wow this guy is very talented even though he is blind folded. A bit off key, but very well played. Awesome video.

[brassman88]

the same guy who played all the mario songs two years ago. its called "super mario piano".

[dyingxmonkey]

i think he got trubo in his hands

[TommyTallarico]

Good times!!  :)

[tonytrip]

This video has now been shown all over Canada, TOTALLY love it here in Toronto :)

[TommyTallarico]

Cool! Can't wait until we go back and play Toronto again! Should be sometime in 2008.

[chucklesthesheepmoo]

MARIO is AMAZING! =)

[Zachamei]

I would love to shake his hand!

[QueenxSerenity]

If you could see it..

[coaldog1]

The guy on the right seems totally unimpressed.

[Directorboy91]

OMFG! He was frickin awesome;

[Hollysalsa]

Certainly brings a smile to my face. :)

[pacmanproductions]

ahhh...great memories....supermario64 ruled

[sergisgym]

STA WAPO. VIVA MARIO!!!!!

[omabuub]

martin leung is so cool ^^
