Aerith's Theme ~ Final Fantasy VII Piano Collections ~ エアリスのテーマ

[Mushamashi987654]

pft, you had ONE mistake and you doubt yourself. i should probs quit guitar then XD

[nathanielpiano]

@Mushamashi987654 lol guitar is wayyy harder to plan than piano XD You have an excuse hehehe.

[Mushamashi987654]

@nathanielpiano no way lol. on piano you play 2 rhythms..i can't do that yet. D:

[nathanielpiano]

@Mushamashi987654 lol true--counter-rhythm action can be brutal xD

[MarioGamesCompany]

Haven't I told you Nathaniel, the amount of views you've got for this song is over 2k already and all your videos in total got around 10.000 views. You doubt yourself too much ^_^ Now give us a new video to listen to in order to celebrate ur 10k views! Muhahaha. Maybe try the pokemon battle theme for ur 10k views celebration? :D (Pokemon red green battle theme of the youtube user: kamotakukamo

[MarioGamesCompany]

My bad it's almost over 20k already!? :O

[nathanielpiano]

@MarioGamesCompany lol, aw thanks Mario :) Yeah it is increasing which is cool ^^ lol, pokemon ... sure... got the sheets? Lol, I could get around learning it sometime, maybe. Probably not in the foreseeable future heheh, that sounds more like a summer project, mmhm :P

[THEoneNILS]

make itunes and i load your music ! youre good !

[nathanielpiano]

@THEoneNILS Aww heheh thanks bro! i have no idea how to put my songs on itunes though, lol. Doubt there'd be enough demand for it XD But it's a cool idea! I'll keep it into consideration :)

[Darthdemersus]

amazing song...but what are you doing with your hands when you lift off the piano

[nathanielpiano]

@Darthdemersus Sorry, that's just how I play... my piano teacher used to do a similar thing and it just sort of wore off on me I guess. It's just a biproduct of me trying to play emotionally.

[Darthdemersus]

@nathanielpiano never said it was bad. your fuckin awesome dude i was just wondering if it helped with the playing cuz it looked weird to me. props on the cover dude

[nathanielpiano]

@Darthdemersus It helps me XD Some people do it, some don't. We're all different in how we play best :) Thanks bro

[THEoneNILS]

@Darthdemersus fuck of the lifting !!!!! the sound, playstyle and feelings are great ! it hit the point of the message of the song! what are you man ,an music-play-technical-inspector from mars or other planet? :D nathanielpiano plays good dude! dont talk about the "how he did it" , if you dont do it better on YT... nobody is interested in how he plays the song in wich finger-distance to the key style hahahaha...duuuuddeee...

[Darthdemersus]

@THEoneNILS it was a genuine question. not an insult.

[THEoneNILS]

@Darthdemersus ...everybody hear and feel the song! !!! the feeling of the song is perfect! its a perfect performance. better than frosen school-fingers on the keys! duuuuuuuuddddeeee :) Nobuo Uematsu the composer would be proud of you. keep your style nathaniel ! the lifting style is your play charakter.

[Crux922]

Sheet music?

[nathanielpiano]

@Crux922 Sorry, I'm a believer in supporting the arrangers, so if you want this same arrangement I suggest buying the piano collections.. should be some on ebay.... there are probably some fan arrangements on the web too though. If you google it, I'm sure you'll find something :)

[60198849214]

Every time i listen to this piece it makes me smile

[nathanielpiano]

@60198849214 Aw, thanks, lol--glad you like it XD This piece makes me sad, lol :(

[60198849214]

@nathanielpiano Why sad?

[nathanielpiano]

@60198849214 Because of Aerith :(

[THEoneNILS]

[mishcana]

Very beautifully played. I love this song; but the way you played it sounded amazing.

[nathanielpiano]

@mishcana Thanks so much :D Glad you enjoyed it!

[jazzcrusader]

Nice job. btw, perhaps time to get the piano tuned?

[nathanielpiano]

@jazzcrusader Thanks. Yeah, it was tuned a few days after this vid. I'm just so tone deaf I didn't realize it needed it so badly :#

[youngkc1711]

i was having a very...complicated day but hearing you play brought me into a peaceful and relaxing rest. almost like having a recap of the happiest moments in life.

[nathanielpiano]

@youngkc1711 Aw, complicated days... yeah those are really lame :( I got those too... So glad my little piece of music can be of some relaxation for you :)

All the best :)

[docnanomusic]

Incredible job, love the emotion you put into this. Brought me back to that tearful moment all those years ago :'-)

[nathanielpiano]

@docnanomusic Yeah.. good times though; I miss my FF7 days! </3

[Hitest2k7]

Amazing job!

[nathanielpiano]

@Hitest2k7 Thank you :D

[Hover297]

dude,this is awesome ,I really enjoyed listening the song

[nathanielpiano]

@Hover297 Thanks so much :) Glad you enjoyed!

[picklejar222]

any idea where i can get the sheet music for this?

[nathanielpiano]

@picklejar222 I got it off ebay, from the FF7 piano collections book, but people have probably uploaded similar versions online too.

[floundericiousWA]

very nicely played! liked!

[nathanielpiano]

@floundericiousWA Thanks so much :) Glad you enjoyed it!

[iamsicsic6]

nice, i miss that game. your capturing the greatest plot twist ever. nice

[nathanielpiano]

@iamsicsic6 Thanks, glad I could capture something that could feel related to Aerith and her fate :)

[MarioGamesCompany]

Woooow dude nice piano skillz! Keep it up. This video should get at least 50k views in the future! Can't wait to see more videos! How long have you been playing the piano now?

[nathanielpiano]

@MarioGamesCompany Thanks so much :) 50k views will probably never happen though, haha ^^ Been playing a little over 9 years

[MarioGamesCompany]

@nathanielpiano It's the best version on youtube, the more views/likes it gets the faster you'll get viewers! Oh and when you get to do concerts, invite some of your youtube fans! :D

[nathanielpiano]

@MarioGamesCompany haha alright! Will do:P

[DannE11TV]

very beautiful ! one of my favourite tracks from FF-VII

[nathanielpiano]

@DannE11TV Thank you very much :) I love this one a lot too :)

[EtoGmajor]

ooo can you please do Traverse Town?

[nathanielpiano]

@EtoGmajor Absolutely---SOMEDAY lol, got lots of other requests and projects I'm working on first, but hopefully sometime within the next several months ;)

[GeorgeBerryMusic]

If anyone dislikes it, I'm going to hunt them down and murder them in cold blood with a 12 foot sword.

[nathanielpiano]

@GeorgeBerryMusic There we have it; a public declaration to all! To those who think of disliking this video, George here will have his eyes on you ;)

[GeorgeBerryMusic]

@nathanielpiano And penis.

[Lubie225]

everything was quite perfect except for the last few notes

[nathanielpiano]

@Lubie225 Thank you :) Sorry you didn't like my extra chord!

[Lubie225]

@nathanielpiano i meant the chord before that

[nathanielpiano]

@Lubie225 Oh :) Sorry, not much I could do about that at the time. The keys of my piano were in desperate need of maintanence and were very stiff and delayed, so the chord did come out a little mushed. The piano's all fixed now thankfully

[Hope1760]

Very beautiful

[nathanielpiano]

@Hope1760 Thank you very much : )

[jeje22871]

Oh yea I forgot to add nobuo uematsu would be very proud of you. I really liked your version better than the original but still the original is always wonderful.

[nathanielpiano]

@jeje22871 Aww thank you so much :) Yeah, I thought I'd upload some FF7 pieces because of your request ^^ You're so kind! Better than the original? Naaa! :P I'm so pleased you enjoyed it :) Yes, sure thing! I'm a little busy this week, but I'll do my best to learn Julia/Eyes on Me. I have the FF8 piano collections too so its all good :) Shouldn't take too long--another one of my all time favorites. (FF8 was my favorite game) All the best!

[jeje22871]

Hey nathaniel can you also do final fantasy 8 julia's piano theme. I know you can make it sound incredible!

[jeje22871]

I LOVE YOU!!! Im so glad you did a final fantasy 7 cover. Amazing!!! and so beautifully done.

[daigoro789]

haha - i really enjoyed your little addition at the end! lol :) am loving these uploads from you - the notes in the higher register sounded like little bells at times :P also one of my all time fave pices, one which i seem to pick up and play for a few days at least once every 6months - and i think that i'll be doing that for a long-time yet still :P kudos!

[nathanielpiano]

@daigoro789 thanks diagoro! Yep, same here, heheh, just thought I'd record it for fun

[VolensxAstrum]

Personally I love this song, so thank you for doing such a wonderful job on it. ^^ (I'm in the middle of arranging it for cello too, so this kind of helped me catch a few more notes.) Sorry about your headache though- hope you feel better.

[nathanielpiano]

@VolensxAstrum Oh, cool! Glad I can be of help :} Cello is such an amazing instrument, I'd love to hear you play this on one! Think you'll upload it?

[VolensxAstrum]

@nathanielpiano If I ever get the arrangement right. I don't have any music so it'sall by ear and I haven't actually tried it on the cello yet. (I'm using a firebox and my questionable sense of hearing to simulate the notes. @.@) I just realized how insane that sounds. lol. But yes, ifI ever get it right, I will upload it.

[nathanielpiano]

@VolensxAstrum haha wow, that's kind of cool actually! I have a terrible ear, so I could never do something like that :) Alright cool, hope it works out okay! :D

[VolensxAstrum]

@nathanielpiano That makes two of us. Anywho, I think I'll stop clogging your comments page now, lol.

[nathanielpiano]

@VolensxAstrum lol kk ^^
