Jordan Rudess - Lifting Shadows Off A Dream [Notes On A Dream]

[eriqlo]

he´s an inspiration for all the good musicians

[Schraupe]

@tomatl that would imply there are roughly six others like him on this planet. I very much doubt that :-O

[JuanMoraMetalero]

@Schraupe one of them is me... lol joke, but some day... SOME DAY... i will be as good as one Rudess's finger

[sunnylee84]

this visualizer could resist not to improvise along with Jordan!

[xkodha]

Jordan Ruddess' best contribution to DT was when he first joined, till Octavarium. Then he plateaued and now he's just following Petrucci, who has plateaued and no longer has great ideas. It's natural actually - you get your best work out in your 20s and maybe 30s. In my opinion, this cover is really unnecessary.

@Snordix Its progressive metal put on piano what did you expect?

[Snordix]

Lol at you all Rudess fantards.

All the original feeling of the song got lost between the crazy little notes you idiot.

Thanks for ruining an awesome song.

@Snordix

Shouldn't your username be "snobdix"?

[Snordix]

@Niekpas1 Know what? It's quite the contrary.

Snobs are those who claim something is beautiful because it's filled with notes flying everywhere, who hear classical music and automatically say "it's art", who hear a piano and assume that it is quality music.

Snobs do not see what is really before their eyes, they make assumptions based on what they think should be logic to say.

Snobs do not see that Rudess is just a closet indie fag who composses pretentious music.

@Snordix I will agree with you on SOME level that notes flying at incredible speeds don't make good music, but I will strongly disagree with Rudess' music being pretentious on any level; just because he is considerably more proficient at playing the piano than a lot of people doesn't make his music pretentious. It's not a mindless creation. Yes, he does push a lot of speed in his many of his solos, but they are played with great finesse/accenting, and that is what makes it beautiful to people.

[Hayacafrita]

@Snordix now you can play your bieber records.

[andreinavampire]

Jordan Rudess is amazing. Is A genius :)

[DoctorSomeone]

rudess is rudess

further explanation anyone?

[primusdude87]

It's funny how people think that merely saying "I don't own the copyright" keeps them safe. Not the case, but who gives a fuck? There's no way the RIAA is ever going to hunt down and get everyone who's posted amazing music such as this.

[chisuun]

so many kinds of amazing

[PaulMaccasBiggestFan]

What is the name of the visualization program?

[Slashe50]

I was playing the bass intro on my piano, and I was thinking, "This actually sounds really good, I wonder if there's a piano cover on Youtube."

Then I remembered, "Oh, yeah, Jordan Rudess."

[Proggaddicted]

one bilion stars.

Grazie sommo maestro!!

[RikkudoSennin]

I must be crazy. ;/ I have the best/hardest dream to ever acheive. I recently discovered I'm quite capable in playing all instruments these guys do. But FAR FAR FAR FAR from any where as coherently. So I decided to take it upon myself to one day be better then all of them at their respective instruments.

[BillyJimmyBobbyTimmy]

@RikkudoSennin Good luck bro lol.

[RikkudoSennin]

@BillyJimmyBobbyTimmy Yes, I still need that luck you gave me all this time ago. But I'm still working on it the best that I can. I actually want to tell them of this dream, just because I know they're all so supportive of their fans, just like we are of them.

[backwardsnamestaken]

@RikkudoSennin that'd be like being the super skrull compared to the fantastic 4... but remember ... fantastic 4 still wins.

[endlessvoid4]

I wish there was a way to hack into this vid so I could give it infinitti stars

[Feal9123]

omg so fucking awesome

[magusx1125]

I can't even believe how good he is. An inspiration to all pianists everywhere.

[jeanherfs1]

@magusx1125 not just pianists, all musician and even all people everywhere

[tomatl]

amazing rudess is one in a billion

[smebrash]

ma la rappresentazione grafica della musica è tipo una di quelle cose alla windows media player, che automaticamente si muove secondo la musica?
