  • This isnt the right way to play it, you play the chords different.

  • This is not a how to video. Lovely, but not a teaching video

  • Look 0:56 The focus, you used an iPhone to Capture!!!! :D

  • Like the sound of that! but piano always has the best sound ;) Electric thingies like a keyboard can't change that.

  • I don't get why people are complaining about "how do you learn to play it". :P This is the kind of video I can learn from. Clear view of the keys and reasonable speed. Thanks so much for posting!

  • Cool how you made it sound like gary jules talking too (:

  • nice nice nice !

  • i wouldove liked it better if u played not from ear but from sheet music. it wouldove sounded more like the original. ur cover is pretty good though. its hard to do it by ear i would know. good job.

  • Nice job and camera view. Saw the keys perfectly, listened and watched enough, and now have the song locked away in my head and can play it. Thanks a lot!

  • really good man!

  • Very helpful. Thanks very much for posting.

  • amazing cover.. sounds the same :)

  • i like h8 al these plp who type like this. Type correctly please. He is playing on a Roland Phantom. They are 3000 and up pianos. Best in the world in my opinion. And if you cant learn from this then you should read music and if you cant then you arent very good at music. i dont care what you can play, if u cant read a lick of music then the person next to you who can, will always play there song better than you. And you will comment about me and call me stupid, BUT YOU ARE THE RETARD. Great Vid

  • You say type correctly but use sentence fragments to a new extreme. A person who has perfect pitch hearing really doesn't need to learn how to read sheet music, so the person who is next to me just might not play better than I, the same that I may not always play better than he or she. You cannot start a sentence with "and" I'm certain you've been told that at least once. You also used the wrong "there" you wanted to use "their" but used "there" instead. Hypocrisy shall be trolled!

  • @penguinchris796 You do know he said "type" correctly, not "write" correctly, meaning he was directing his criticism at typos, not grammar mistakes. I am impressed at your grammar skills though.

  • dont listen to the other guys u rock. dont stop

  • HOLY CRAP!!! What piano is that?!!? ITS NICE!!!! I WANT I WANT!! Can you tell me the name of the piano? Please?

  • bad, nice piano

  • both hands are totally wrong..but still sounds decent

  • Comment removed

  • yer i have 2 agree no avence but it kind of sucks soz but its the truth

  • lmfao, u suck :P

    and this isnt even a tutorial...

  • Comment removed

  • uhm actully i can play this song, asshole .

  • dude...you got this song all wrong

    your left hand isn't right at all!

  • we can call it improvisation... loool XD

  • some of the notes sounded a little wrong...like when the song says"i find it kinda funny and i find it kinda sad"...the notes you played there seemed a little off but other wise it was very good keep up the good work! :D

  • Too bad you're wrong.

  • do you suck enough to belittle someone else's talent? what, just because he doesn't play it the way you were taught, its wrong? are you racist too?

  • Haha. Its not talent if its wrong.

  • omg you rock

  • Very good! Though, just a tip, not bashing, try having the camera pointing directly on top of your hands so we can see every note you play. ^^

    <3 Very good.

  • great vid

  • Really good and easy to follow up to

    I learned how to play it while watching this haha it's awesome!

    thanks!

  • This ain't no tutorial as the title suggests

  • quit your bitchin and figure it out.

  • Woouw MAN! I LOVE THIS ONE!

    I TRULY DO!

    The Best Version of this ssong ive seen!

  • Wow so much hate for someone playing a song on the piano

    well played, it's one of the nicest versions i found on youtube

  • theres better ones, you should tell people that its not 100% correct before you teach them, theres also suppose to be a legato swing rhythm for the melody which is the movement of the song, other then that good job and some chords you cant really see what your playing but i guess if you have an ear you can find out but if you have an ear you wouldn't be on a tutorial lol

  • oh please what are you all moaning about you can learn from this just need to take you time .

    nicely played 5 starz

  • Yeah great.... soon I'll play it like a pro... wah?!

    How the hell do we play it by that? O.o

    Well yeah I can pick bits up but it still sounds shit when I do it!

  • how da fuck do you expect some one to learn from this

  • @jackasscock well I've easily learned how to play this song from this video. not very complex really so I can't see how your having a problem with it to be honest.

  • heyy man thanks for teaching me how to play rather than just title the video "how to play /example/ "and just playing it infront of me tediously and not actually teaching me, thanks again

  • yeah, key is wrong, and wrong left hand also

  • awesome man thanks

  • why don't ppl just download MIDIs?

  • thats a shit tutorial cant even see what ur doing

  • yep :o(

  • he is also playing the intro left hand wrong

  • you suck i cant even see what ure doing :S

  • its wrong the key is right but listen to he song more carefully

  • idk why but i always get super sad listening to this song

  • cant be in his mouth or a hat, its probably mounted on something above him, possibly a camera stand in front of him

  • genius

  • ohhh very good man!

  • Where are you holding the camera? Your mouth? Camera hat? lolol

  • oh and this is the best version on youtube, good job : )

  • the find it kind of funny, find it kind of sad is off. This is a good version of the song, though, the left hand chords are simple, and most people are able to learn the melody easily with their ears. Amazing song to sing to. I'm so glad there's so many videos showing how to play

  • Hey donboudreau2 learn english if you're going to insult someone. It would be taught. You dumbass.

  • it would be nice if you teached it!!!!!

  • where the fuck does it teach you? All i see is you playing!

  • yea

  • For those who know how to play piano, it's actually really easy to pick up once you're good at it...To be honest, did you look at the title and say, "Oh yes, the duration of that clip is 1 minute 18 seconds; AMPLE time to teach me how to play a complicated piece of piano work!"? It's a guide, not a teaching aid...

  • yeah i actually had no problem learning to play this from him. good video!

  • I know how to play it and you don't play the good thing you are so bad

  • ....you didnt really show us how t play.. it was just you playing

    it was good though i really wanna learn it :)

  • god dam it play the stuff like slower like like say each key done every 5 seconds.... i don't have any piano... exp at all so this is like watching the dare devil jump off a 100ft building and live..

  • Awesome! :)

  • which brand is the synthesizer

  • Hey! Nice done! do you have any tip for me to get better on piano? I've just started playing and wanna get better and not lose patience and so on, have just been playing g-tar so =P if you have any tip how you made it, so please share ^^

  • I liked it. I like how you doubled up on the melody at the end, it made my penis grow a little bit... and not in a gay way. Gj

  • im glad it wasnt just me

  • I find it kinda funny, I find it kinda sad, the dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had...you played that bit the teensiest bit wrong. Otherwise excellent, and thanks. =P

  • Dude, this great! Can you give me the chords so I can learn too?

  • nice keyboard, good job

  • i wish i knew how to play the piano... *sigh i just learned one little note though. it's from 1:11 to 1:15, haha. it's good enough for me :]

  • to fast but real nice piano :)

  • it sounds like ur going a little to fast but i love it......lol i been playing piano for 4 years know but i never practice so im still a noob ...lol =P

  • Hi m8, like the way you played that, what keyboard is that you have?

  • Roland Fantom X8

  • Muy bien!! excelente! good man!!!

  • very good but u got one bit wrong

    and please dont ask me if u listened to the original u would know\

  • Yeah. But good job tho.

  • One bit...oh one bit of YO MAMA!

  • How do I learn from this?

  • i know! its too fast...and no explination

  • You play great but, when I go to watch a how to video I like learning how to do something.

  • Your doing base wrong dude.

  • His bass is screwed up (completely)..he only uses B(flat)+D+F and F+A(flat)+C..and repeats (there are some alts) but basically are all the same..the way he plays it is too simple and I advise seeking out another player.

  • nice keyboard, i sent this to my friend!

  • i learned this song at my 2nd keyboard lesson but well done anyway

  • Yeah well it's pretty easy, a great beginner song.

  • well youre still far better than me

    i only play the simple version

  • may be simple, i still like it

  • i know to play it nice better and more easiers 1o1

  • This helped me learn this in like 5 minutes, thanks.

  • For all you guys saying that he did bad just let me say that he did better than a lot of people could.

  • what keyboard is that?

  • bass rythem is completely wrong man

  • could you plese tell me the notes for the bass line if you know them!

    Thanks

  • Awesome, but some notes are wrong..

  • AWESOME!!! and you have a very nice keybaord^^

  • YOU ARE MY LADCA THAT MEANS U R MY POTATO PANCAKE.....the heart wants what the heart wants

  • The left hand is SOOO out of tune.

  • Your balls are so out of tune.

  • You really need to calm the fuck down man. I mean, really, take it easy.

  • haha my balls are in tune, favorite cover so far man, keep it up

  • awesome job, i've learned it, tanks

  • Awesome!

    Thanks, ive always wanted to play this!

    x

  • This guy is so amazing!

    Keep up the great work man!

    Great talent!

  • why do yall make fun of him i thought he played very good and helped me play some of the song better.

  • Does anyone know what the key signature is? It is 4/4, and what key is it in?

  • Yes, it's key-tastic.

  • ur soo gay man

  • good job :)

    allot of the videos on here are awful, but this was really helpful. it's pretty easy once you get the hang of it.

  • your's isnt the official way 2 play iit but i think its better =)

  • I like how you say the "official" way..make me think of a referee standing by someone playing piano and blowing a whistle ;-)

  • ur so gay

  • indeed its not so much unofficial as it is a different variation.

  • Great vid, but you're supposed to play the lowest key of each chord once, and then the chord

    keep on playin'

  • Supposed to?  Is that what you tell jazz musicians?

  • that piano looks pretty extreme

  • wow, the chords on this video are pretty good.. i actually saw a different chord version..

  • Thank you for this :) I used to think that i couldn't learn a piece by watching someone play it, but now I think I can.

  • great vid. thanks for the help you should continue playing piano and continue to do great! thx again =D

  • Might I suggest for the left hand instead of straight chords (1&3&5), go 1, 3&5, 1, 3&5, 1, 3&5, it's how he does it in the song.

    Sorry, I'm finicky, but it sounds really awesome, thanks for that.

  • YEAH, PEACE AND LOVE : /

  • tvboy88, i love this video, and i have been able to learn how to play the song from it. thanks =] sure it would have been nice if it was a tutorial, faster and easier, but to all you people who are ragging on tvboy88 for calling it "how to play" should try just sitting down and watching it a few times. you can still learn by watching if you take the time and pay attention. geez. people these days expect things handed to them, try working at it some.

    great video tvboy88! i'd enjoy another! =]

  • Jmariel08,..so glad this helped. Your comments mean a lot!

  • I think u did a very well.

    Its mad world with a nice twist

    and i say, its very nice switching octives like that.

    p.s for someone who says its different

    the difference makes it alittle more original and fun to listen to.

    dont be player hatin my friends

  • You play very beautiful... but it isn't "how to play"

  • Well, it's not "how to play" Back That Ass Up.

  • "MAD WORLD, HOW TO PLAY, GARY JULES Donnie Darko"

  • Not everything has to be done the same way in this world. I could say that your post isn't a sentance because you used an elipsis, and forgot a period. But let's be honest, I understand. Anyone with an ear can understand that I'm playing Mad World.

  • I'm afraid You don't understand my first post, I didn't say that You don't play "Mad World", just that it isn't sth like "how to play" (tutorial), when title of Your video indication on that. So please, don't insult me, but read exactly what another people write

  • Hey tvboy88, you should understand that if you write HOW TO PLAY it means that you will show HOW TO PLAY. Too difficult?

    C'mon and make a tutorial of this song! You play it very nice, so share your knowledge with others. We're waiting!

  • There's no knowledge to be shared but the video itself. If you want to learn HOW to make a sandwich, watch a guy make a sandwich. Why do you need a recipie?

  • ooooooo its on now lol

    you play very good

  • Our society is too demanding. Everybody wants instant gratification. First of all, if you want to be a pianist you should practice playing by ear and learn it yourself, It's good practice. If you cant get that, here is a video to help you out instead of shoving it down your throat. Any ass hat can copy what someone tells them... develope some skill

  • Well said d00ders.

  • sounds beautiful

  • Once I got this down on the piano I'm learning it on my viola.

  • Do it, and post it as a response!

  • holy shit nice job

  • ...WOW

  • what notes are the left hand playing?

  • how to learn this if youre a beginner??

  • Start with only learning the left hand. Then learn the right hand independently. Then, practice putting them together slowly.

  • It's only wrong if you're reading the sheet music. This is another way to play the song. If you wanted it to be absolutly correct, you'd eliminate the right hand mimicry of the vocals. This is obviously an interpretation.

  • good job but wrong notes its like the remix

  • le mvaw wuso quen tisa pertecio!!!

  • Wrong notes and yet extrodinary!

  • best version yet, the timing is the key thing which makes yours stand out.

  • omg my eyes! this has got to be the best quality video for this song..finnaly =]

  • Wrong notes!

  • mate i think ur vid woz da best i went through lukin 4 all de vidz 4 mad world n i woz a little frustated wid de other 1's they r shit urz iz class im still in a bad mood coz i cunt learn off de others really well

  • LEARN ENGLISH.

    fool.

  • Ive gt an A* in English, u probably call the way i wrote it broken English that's if understand what that means.

  • HA if you have an A+ in English, I'm fucking SuperWoman. I would like to meet your teacher and kick him or her in the juggular.

  • do yo even know what juggular is, have fun kicking it

  • Let it go, man. x_o

  • ok it took me forever to read what you typed. i would think that it would take more effort to type retarded then it would be to type normally

  • Listen to kickasskirsten

  • hahahaha. thanks Pichi =)

  • Your good!

    Im trying to play...

  • I loved it, especially the ending.. makes me want to learn to play the piano myself...

  • ouch, wrong notes.

  • I agree.

    BUT it doesn't sound bad at all. Its just more of your personal touch.

  • gotta love it, and as already mentioned... awesome keyboard! :) just checked the price on Ebay, ~3000$ :|

  • nice playing, but even nicer keyboard!!!

  • what is you keyboard/electric piano name??? so i can buy one. lol. please reply to the meassage thanks.

    also this song is sooo well played!!!! i luv it!! xxxx

  • Roland, Fantom X-8...it's a weighted Key synth...sweeet.

  • I was wondering if it was weighted. Very nice.

  • alittle 2 fast but it could work..

  • wow I love your style on the piano :) plus this video taught me how to play it, thanks!

  • nice

  • Superb!
