Thank you for this! This is my favorite song from Rent - cried the first time I heard it. Me and my music theatre friends love it, and now I can play it when we all want to sing it.
thanks this was really helpful! i cant read sheet music so watching is great for me! im also a HUGE rent fan so thanks for doing a lot of rent songs!!
good job. you can do it on any key. i play this starting with the Bflat. learned from the sheet music. Bflat, C, down 4 to the F, octave higher F,back down an octave to that F you just hit before, same Bflat as before, same C, than that octave higher F.
Than start with the A replacing the Bflat but everything else the same.
Than back to the first way starting with the Bflat.
Lastly D,E,F,D,C,F,E,C. all the ones close together. good luck understaing that. hehe. best way i can describe.
thanks, but it's a bit fast when you go through the one finger bit. could you repost this slower, or add the notes into the Video Discription. Cheers xx
I play piano by ear. I can't read music worth crap for some reason...took lessons...by ear and watching are the only ways I can learn but once I watch it or hear it I can play it. So yes...in a nut shell..THANK YOU YOU ROCK!!! lol
god, your hands are like twice as huge as mine.. i've only been at piano for 5 years.. but thanks for everything! now i can.. barely play it with my tiny hands xD
1. To urself, say the name of the only guy or girl u wanna be with 3 times 2. Think of something u wanna accomplish within the next week and say it to urself 6 times 3.

Think of something that u want to happen send this to at least 15 videos and ur dream will come true If u read this u will be KISSED by ur true love on the nearest coming friday ! But u have to copy this on at least 15 other video's or u will be cursed 4 life !
in 1984 a young boy names james thompson was discovered by his neighbour his body had been stripped of skin and his eyes were removed. now his spirit wonders aimlessly from house to house seeking revenge! if one doesn't post this comment to three other people within the next six hours, he may find you and you will suffer as he did.
I saw that in the sheet, but the sheet also had you playing the melody which is stupid. I didn't like the way that sounded and I don't really notice in the song.
acctuly its two hands thats the left hand part the right hand goes
|B 3 1/2 B 1 1/2|Bb 3 1/2 Bb 1 1/2|B 3 1/2 B 1 1/2|Eb 1 1/2 Eb 1/2 C# 1 1/2 C# 1/2| then repeat. thats the right hand for the 4 bar intro and through out the whole song. the numbers after the not is how many beats the note has.
*immediately goes to try it out*
20 minutes later...
YAY I FINALLY GOT IT RIGHT!!!

It's much easier to play on the guitar. I'm sure even people who've never played guitar before would be able to get it in about three minutes. ^^

that was one of the first songs i learned to play on guitar, actually :P playing it on piano's easier, though, for me, anyway.

do you need to play it with your left hand or can it be played using your right hand?
INDIANFIELD54 4 years ago
Oh, yeah, you can use your right hand. I think it's harder to use your left hand since Im a rightie.

Dude, get a better piano. Your plastic key impact makes sounds that disrupt the audio.
I thought it was some drums in the background at first. That or move your camera mic away farther.
IcyNami 4 years ago
my old mic did that just from the sounds of the keyboard, not the impact. If I shouted it'd make that noise too.
