[barwilkins]

27 people just spent 10 minutes trying to figure out which of their smoke detectors was beeping

[genajj]

@barwilkins sorry i have no idea what your trying to say.....

[barwilkins]

@genajj That loud beeping in the background...I stopped the video a couple of times to find which of my smoke alarms was dying!

[genajj]

@barwilkins oh right!!! sorry :)

[KnivesNIN]

Great video but what about the second part of the song?

[genajj]

[pacothetaco556]

[puuunnk]

Bloody Hell [/Charlie] LoL

Awesome! Seriously! I hate Rihana but your sweetness and your ability playing makes me like it. ^^

I like Charlie too! I almost die when I saw him on Flashforward ( the actor of course)

Sorry my english I'm brazilian, and I study just on google for a while... =D

And also thanks for teach me that one.

[ovilaleblanc16]

Did you change the batteries for the smoke alarm yet?

[ItsAnneChickenNugget]

Did you just say bloody hell? I love the british...

I know your'e sick of people talking about the sharp/flat issues, but it really does make this confusing. However, it was a great, easy to follow video! Are you a Lostie? love this tune. Thanks for posting!

[Whitebread145]

[1122me0x]

[bbruderer]

"See you in another life, brotha."

[jdown79]

@bbruderer you bastard you made me cry... i love desmond, as straight as that can be

[Simasters]

Most of the people on Youtube play it waayyy too fast. It's suppose to be a sad song guys ...

[jensbolle]

@Simasters it can both be happy and sad. and in Lost its mostly played when something bad happens and something good too. A great example is when Boon dies and Aron is born

[Geos056]

Thanks for that tutorial. He is really simple and good explained.

Thanks to you, it took me only 20 min to learn.

[stargatelolol]

please record yourself saying "You're all going to die down here" and post it on youtube

[xxxShishioxxx]

[baconnlegs13]

it took me 12 mins to learn! great teacher, thx :)

[apansimon02]

NICE TUTORIAL!!!:D THX!

[SuPRn0A]

Beep!!!

You need to change the battery in your smoke alarm...

[eddieguitardude]

@SuPRn0A hahaha for a second there i thought it was my smoke alarm (using skullcandy so i didnt know it was from the video lmao)

[lemsipGY]

@SuPRn0A yeah I heard it too :)

[ThoseTwoBros]

Just finished the series, I really liked the ending. Season 4-5 was a bit confusing, but if you haven't watched it you definately should!

-Great tutorial btw. Just what i was looking for!

[BlueJayHakims]

[samtheweatherman]

You might want to check your smoke alarm

[hina475]

[desmondlover]

Thank you sooo much!!!!!!! i love the tune even though its rlly sad :'(

[catnipnbone]

I love this song! It's just beautiful. Would you consider writing the sheet music and selling it? I'd love to have it in front of me. Thanks so much.

[John007879]

Best Series of The Century!!!!!

[TheGregrok]

Awesome :D

[Oblivescent]

Thank you! I have had this song stuck in my head since the series finale ended last night, and I've been trying to figure out how to play this for this whole afternoon!!

[papiervampire]

Such a beautiful ending to a great series.

[alientechsk8r]

Great video but isn't there a lttle twiddly bit missing at the end? It's in some other videos but they don't teach it.

[GasserN420]

1) Piano is out of tune. 2) Your fingers are in the way of our view. 3) You talk and play too fast. 4) You take too long. And by the way, it's really unattractive (not that I think you are attractive) to be a total bitch to everyone who has a correct criticism about your "work". Part of being a musician is listening to what critics say. Until you learn that, posting piano videos on YouTube is as far as you will go in a musical career.

[waffulz986]

This had got to be the best vidio on how to play this song you have alot of tallent.

[Ioskar095]

I can't play piano but i can play this song. Thank you very much !

[hondatool]

thanks alot i translated the notes to guitar and it sounds really nice, i almost had it before but you cleared it up. thanks again

[ace2044]

thanks nice tutorial A+ 10/10

[Trojan8822]

I think you accent is cute

[Trojan8822]

i think you have a cute accent

[snazzmaster]

thank you very much =)

[727anne]

dont worry about your accent, it's very pretty

[TheTalon0000]

love this tutorial, i learned what i needed and the accent is awesome =)

[cerejahawk112]

sanks!!!!

[Alhugen]

Good tutorial, thanks.

...And nice voice. lol

[fifasuicune]

Thanks you are a good teacher :) !!!!

[TidusSloan71]

Thanks! Even with the wrong description of the notes I still figurd it out. Hey, we all gotta start somewhere. Who needs to know the names of the notes, as long as you know how to make it sing, right? ;-)

[sirdavies94]

thanks, now i learned how to play it. It took me 1 h. but its OK bc i have naver played the piano before, so thanks!

[xXMercifulFallXx]

nice. Is it hard to get the feel of the piano down?

[AndyReidYeo]

@xXMercifulFallXx nah

[Breedman]

This is awesome, thank you so much!

[catnipnbone]

This is a really helpful video! Your instructions are perfect! I thought I'd need the sheet music but I'm sure I won't need it now. It's kind of you to take the time to do make it! :)

[posnose1986]

Hola amiga, Gracias por tu video me ayudo muchisimo, era una cancion que tenia ganas de tocar desde la primera vez que la oi, un abrazo fuerte...

[shanaynate]

yes i all ways end with qs after lost but remember at jacks sons piano lesson thing the ishland was under water as seen in the first episode so if the ishland was under water no one has been able to go to it

[Cappittoo]

thank you so much for this

[ryanhunter2347]

I am so glad u made this!!!

But I think the song is a little slower... Thanks so much!!!

[GekkoNET]

Thank you VERY MUCH for this video!!!

[brandonscott00]

this song reminds me of charlie :(

[geoski24]

February 2nd!!!!!Can't wait!

[battlefrontking9]

sayid might be jacob

my theory

[geoski24]

i think that's right,because these people in the temple,try to kill Sayid,so Jacob could pass in his body.

[wacozac45]

yeah i think that too

[geoski24]

but now it's too complicated,because the man in the temple,said that they wanted to give him poison because a dark energy is growing in him.They tried to kill Claire too,because it happened to her as well(as he said).Really,how did this man in the temple went to the island?In the last episode he was in Jack's son piano performing...

[wacozac45]

yes its confusing me too

[reaganC25]

love this song but sad that charily die :(

[fixdetshit]

Thank you. Very helpful

[Jcox159]

You play the song way to fast..

[kjursini]

Nice Job. I love this song and want my husband to learn to play it for me. =)

[TaichouInkei]

I don't mean to be an asshole but you're missing quite a few chords in the beginning part. Just saying. I have really sharp ears.

[LordFr3nk]

VERY VERY GOOOD!!!

[jessepink]

this was pretty helpful, although i cant hear it without thinking of charlie dying. but i believe he will be back for season 6, probably as a ghost, but it'll still be cool to see him. also, i believe that beeping sound means that the battery in your smoke detector is dying.

[EvacuateDecapitate]

Why Did Charlie DIE!!!!!! So Sad...

[YellowDinosour]

@EvacuateDecapitate i cried when that happened

[DavidLTG]

@EvacuateDecapitate They All DIED :(

[drikke123]

@DavidLTG "Everyone dies. Some will die in the future and some have died long, long before us."

[drikke123]

@DavidLTG "Everyone dies. Some will die in the future and some have died long, long before us." - Christian Shepherd

[spdyeric]

@EvacuateDecapitate it maybe, but you kind of ruin it for people who haven't seen the show yet

[may2thelynn]

hah alright whatevs. nice video and injoy england. peacee.

[soriansen]

THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i NEED IT!!

[87RedHead]

A good job well done. I found this very helpful, although had to keep rewinding to get to get it just right lol

[kykid444]

haha everytime i hear your voice i picture Claire from Lost.

[may2thelynn]

oh no no no i didnt mean to insult you!

im uber jelous of your accent. im from california so i dont really have an accent...i dont think at least..hah

[kmccarney88]

Look, I dont mean to insult YOU but to say that you don't have an accent to someone from another country makes you sound like an idiot. Do you really think that someone from England walks around all day asking themselves "jeez, why is it that we talk so funny? Why can we be like those Americans who talk so neutral without a hint of accent?"

Come on, use some common sense, you dont have an accent to anyone IN CALIFORNIA!! But anyone else, even someone in Michigan would say otherwise.

[genajj]

ermmm.. dont mean to insult YOU either but what you just said above makes youu sound like an even gayyer idiot.

and plz. dont post POINTLESS comments that is nothin to do with my video :) thank youu "kmccarney88"

[GasserN420]

@genajj Seriously? This person points a fact to your face and you respond by being a stupid, ignorant whore bitch? Really classy. thank youu :)

[genajj]

@GasserN420 sorry i have no idea what your talking about..

[razcritch]

@genajj 1. nice use of the word 'gayyer'

2. its 'comments that HAVE nothing to do with my video', not 'is'.

[supernerd47]

Brilliant. : ) Well in that case, I also greatly appreciate the song Atheist Christmas Carol (but understand that it would be very difficult to play).

[supernerd47]

I mean if I told you of another song by Vienna Teng, would you not want to listen to it because you didn't like Lullaby for a Stormy Night?

[may2thelynn]

its fun to hear you talk=] hah im from california so i love accents. and lost.

[supernerd47]

Really? Wow. Okay. No problem.

Umm...hmmm...are you predisposed to not liking music by that artist?

[lol979887787]

Can u give me the piano sheets?

[darek4488]

I've made the sheets. The link is in my Life and death movie description.

[ScarlettOcean92]

wait, so is THIS video the CORRECT version, or is this the incorrect version?

[supernerd47]

WICKED AWESOME!

Thank you, I now know how to play Life and Death. =]

Now, pardon my ignorance, but I'm American, and I would like to know why you seem not to like the fact that your accent is, as you described it 'posh'...I understand what the word means, just not the connotation. Please and thank you...you know, or you could not answer...the choice is yours...

[genajj]

Thank Youu :)

I described it as posh cause its like been a year now since I made this video and my accent is totally different now so when I look back at this, it makes me laugh, I spoke so formally and now I speak informal. Its kinda weird, dont know if that answered your question? =S

[supernerd47]

haha 'I spoke so formally and now I speak informal' Brilliant.

I think I understand now. It's a little bit difficult to decipher words in text form. 'BLOODY HELL' seemed to have been an exclamation of distaste...I think that was what I meant by my original question. Do you dislike your accent in this video, or were you just exclaiming how different it is?

I like your accent, but I've not seen any of your more recent videos, so I can't really compare it...

[genajj]

I think I was just exclaiming it, I guess its not that clear but than again it was only a small personal comment and ' Bloody Hell' is just a phrase I say alot to describe something when im shocked or sometimes angry ;)

Now I hope that answered your question, lol Im bad at explaining =S and yeh hopefully I'll update my channel and add more videos playing the piano. Any recomendations of songs?

[supernerd47]

Thanks, you have fully answered my question.

The diversity of the phrase 'bloody hell' is probably not best understood by someone who doesn't have the phrase as a part of their familiar vocabulary (i.e. Yanks [i.e. me]) =D

Yes, actually. The song Lullaby for a Stormy Night by Vienna Teng. You should have no problem finding it on Youtube (that's where I found it). I may be able to get the sheet music for it...do you read sheet music? (I don't, 'tis why I ask)

[DeltaThree3]

I think a thank you is in order! Never touched a piano before, luckily I have around 13 years of experience with music (playing Guitar), but this is just great stuff!

Thx!

[Floxii94]

Hi!! thank you!!!!!!!

[squalledprincess]

Hey Doll, thanks so much for taking time to make this tutorial. No, some note names weren't right--but who cares...I completely understood it. :) LOST is my favorite show, and now I can enjoy playing my favorite song from it. You're the best.

[genajj]

Glad to help Mike.

Haha. no we havn't changed the battery yet. I've bn at my dads house lately anyways. Lol :P

[NCEFMedia]

Thanks, sister, a friend and I spent a Saturday evening learning to play this song from your video (and a few others). My mother passed away in Sept. 08 and this song reminds me of her, since we sat and watched the entire first season together the last time I saw her. Blessings.

[rraammssaayy]

... : (

[genajj]

:( xX

[NCEFMedia]

It's ok, it's a good way to honor her memory, and thanks for being part of that.

[yenqfarh]

nice tutorial, you use weird fingers though for your right hand
