  • Would you be able to post the sheet music for this? I can't find any free ones...

  • ♫ From far the best tutoriaaaal, I've ever seeeeen !! ♫

  • I have learned upto 2:05 but after that there are a lot of sequences that are played and I am finding it far too hard to see some of the order of notes you are playing. Please could you record another video in HD as this will no doubt make it much easier to follow. I am a beginner on piano but I have learned all your Winner takes it all video and I know if I could just see whats played I could get this done, Many thanks...

  • how about turning on a light testa del cazzo

  • If you couldn't learn from this video... you're probably an idiot lol

  • Sounds like background music to a chick flick, the part where they are breaking up...pass me a tissue........!.

  • good job of teaching this song... I dont like a whole lot of talking when Im re learning to play again.. keep up the good work....let the haters be your motivaters.......

  • why have you got string harmony on, it makes it unclear

  • thanks dude , im at an intermediate level and i find this a much faster way of learning rather than someone banging on about what keys there playing , dont let the haters get to you , thanks again , great tutorial mate

  • great lesson man and great playing!!!

  • can u put the chords up please?

  • Hi there, thank you so much for this. That was"our" song at Tina and I. You can't imagine how many memories it brings back to me. I want to learn it. Do you have something written? Many thanks again for what you've done.

  • Thanks a lot.

    This is one of my favourite songs.

    Wish I could play the piano as you do... Maybe in heavens, only God knows....

    :-)

  • How could anybody think that doesn't show everything.

    Thats bad ass!

  • ahww, my fingers XD

  • Thx a lot really good tutorial for that song...

  • is that a string piano setting?

  • Sublime , merci beaucoup

  • Wow... this is done very well. Thanks!

    You know those keyboard keys that light up when you press them? That might be a good attribute to tutorials demonstrated in this way.

  • usually a 500$ or more casio, yamaha, korg, or roland, can do it

  • hey nice keyboard! XD

  • Hi, its a great song. I am a beginner and i do find it hard to follow your lesson. Any chance of doing a much slower version.

  • It couldn´t be any slower.

  • Great man!! Thank you. I'll work hard on this lesson!

  • Great job..Im going to start working on this....it sounds like an awesome version.

  • Thank you for sharing! Can you post more Elton John or Billy Joel lessons? Great job!

  • thanks from down under this really helps :):)

  • thank you

  • Thanks, im going to give this a shot. Love the sound coming out of that unit. 7:49 to the end is great stuff. You should put up more songs of you playing.

  • oh i'd love to play this song but it's just too dificult to me:(

  • anybody has the notes

    if soo it would be lovely if somebody sent them too me

  • it is kind of helpful but in parts i cant see what you are doing, it would be 100X more helpful if you were to say the notes aswell as playing them.

  • is very good is very nice!

  • i totally agree i love to play when im angry or anything i sit down and will not stop playing!!

  • god i love playin the piano:D

    see if u hav young children get them to learn an instrument cause i started playin piano when i was ypung and it makes it alot easier.

    there's nothin better than just sittin down at the piano, relax and play a few songs.

    Trust me your kids will thank u for it wen there older

  • Vary well done, my attempts to play are crud & slow, But improving with every try, Even when you build a house, your gonna bend few nail's. and for those who say I Can't or TOO HARD "Minds are like parachutes, They only function when they are open." {Sly Foxx "2002") & "Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did"_ Mark Twain [Samuel Clemens] (1835-1910) or "Winers & Belly-Axers" The world owes you nothing: It was here first.

  • Man, that is how people supouse to teach how to play a riff of a song, well done and thank you for share.

  • thanks man !

  • Excellent - straight to my favorites

  • love it how you fold your fingers when you're not using them so they don't confuse people

    very clever.

    thanks =)

  • Hi.

    I have a problem with your version. I can sing this song only up to the first line ('It's a little bit funny this feeling inside')and than your melody somehow doesn't meet (to me) the original verision.

    Of course I may be mistaken. But how do you explain the fact that your playing of two first stanzas (at the end of the video) takes approx. 1min 20sec, and Elton needs for the same part only 1min 05sec. And your tempo is similar or even faster than Elton's.

    Any advice?

    regards

  • A well done tutorial and quite faithful!

  • I'm so jealous. Easy 5* from me. I loved the grace you give to it.

  • does any one have the sheet music to this ?

  • if you talked us through what you are doing it would be easier to understand (Y)

  • this song is so pretty and you do it perfect my friend ill give you a 12 out of ten i play it a little diffrent but you do it much better congrats

  • werry nice !

    High five !

  • damn well played!!

    very nice

  • actually ut is realy prefesonal , how is playing?

  • spell check & read & reread before posting

  • he did explain it the beset way... slow and with out words

  • You play very well... but its hard to learn from this video:p because im getting really tired to look at it

  • gracias man, queria aprender a tocar este tema y no tenia quien me lo enseñara, tocas muy bien!! felicitaciones (congratulations)

    from Valdivia-Chile

  • Then you're probably awfull at piano, social skills, coping with life and so on...

  • Minds are like parachutes. They only function when they are open.{Sly Foxx "2005") ** Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did.- Mark Twain [Samuel Clemens] (1835-1910)

  • boo fuck normal people...be a prodigy

  • excellent video. always wanted to learn this and thanks to you I was able to do so.

  • Wow. This is wonderful to be sharing this with the world in such detail. I plan on studying this vid and part 2 as well.

  • its not boring if your trying to learn it...twat

  • i have been playing the piano for almost 8 years.

    and i think you should explain a little bit of what youre doing because people who know how to play the piano MAY be able to catch on by ear, a little...but not always. but w/e. the point is, that it might make things easier for non-piano players if u just explained a lil bit.

  • Amazingly beautiful. You are a a gem for sharing. I will learn this.

  • i think elton is one of the greatest rock keyboard players ever!

  • Brilliant vid. I havent master it yet but I sure will.

  • I really don't want to give up on playing this but without an explanation, a single word of instruction, this is useless. I'm getting extremely irritated by this indecipherable video. I'm half learning this by ear cause i sure as hell can't see what i'm supposed to be playing.

  • wah wah cry me a river...

  • NO U!!!!11!!!

  • I suggest you drop back to the beginners level then... I would consider this to be on the intermediate level... and if you cant see what he is doing. or understand itm then your not ready to be playing on this level.

  • I suggest you notice that comment was posted 4 months ago and have since then learned to play this song... without the help of this video. Fortunately, I didn't drop back to beginner's level but if that's what you think will work for you... good luck.

  • @No1RobLoweFan well that depends whether your a begginer or not because , i find it so much faster to learn just by watching rather than someone droning on about what keys there playing so dont hate ,,,, find some other tutorial that takes 3 hrs to learn ONE INTRO

  • @No1RobLoweFan if you couldn't learn anything with this video you probably shouldn't try to play this song ;) 

  • way to hard for me, iv never had a leson, i only no how to play life and death

  • Im verry hapy jou wand to lern my this song from elton john,thans.:)

  • hi there elton

  • So beautiful!

  • TOP!

  • Pene!

  • An explanation would've helped. A lot. Other people have done that on their How to play "X" on piano vids, why not you??

  • uh......he DID. The name of this song is "your song".

  • Sorry, The previous post was in response to the question of why didn't he tell what the name of the song was.

  • yeh same eyah , cant see a ryt lot after intro , gud vid though.

  • the intro is shown very good and I can play it now, but after it I can not see the fingers very good, so I can't see what is played. and it's too fast then.

  • thank you very much!!!!!!! Pablo from ARGENTINE!!

  • Thanks a lot!

  • A great job teaching this to those of us who are beginning and cant read sheet music. I play by ear and after seeing this video 3 times can pretty much play it through. Thanks a million!!

  • I really appreciate your effort!

    I know nothing about piano. Do u think I can learn to play this? It's your patient versus amateur.

  • It should be beginner, not amateur LOL

  • i'm trying to plow through this as my first ever song on the keyboard. thanks for the video.

  • Eeeeh thkx very much!! but do you have the sheets?

  • This is pretty boring ...LOL...

  • boring....well if you not a ketboard player

    why watch? its a tudorial not concert. LOL...

  • Amazing! cheers mate this is just what i need cnt read music and its a little fast to play by ear, your patience and the way you break it down is second to none. I dnt suppose in the near futre you will be doing "goodbye yellow brick road" Regards

  • I think this is a excellent why of learning pop or jazz tunes. I woould like to see if someone could this techinic classical pieces as well.

  • Thank you so much, I'm layed up(can't move) so all I do is keep my self busy playing piano. You are a life saver!!!!
