that is just down right fucking amazing and i can only wish that i will one day be able to play that cause it is my goal in life now. i think tool would think that your song is pretty awesome :)
That was amazing dude! To hear Maynard's words coming from your piano was wicked. I was singing right along with it, the pace was a little fast but yet still wonderful! You're AWESOME!
I like your piano playing because it emphasizes on the music and not just the lyrics like most covers with tool. I love how Monroe ads his own interpretation in the piano though. overall, you both are fucking awesome. keep it up
good job dude. i work at a piano bar and i asked the guy who plays piano if he would learn and play schism, which i know is a lot to ask. I doubt he will but if he did it would blow my mind like you just did. seriously tho he gets paid 60 dollars an hour to play piano covers. idk that sound like a pretty sweet day job. just sayin
I think I do appreciate this version an incredible amount because you do capture the quite tones that lead to such great crescendos and build up. The anxiety is there and that makes it great.
the crescendos are perfect... if you could sing this would probably be better than adam monroe's version
still, this is incredibly amazing... I, as a guitar learner, have you as an inspiration, even though we play different instruments, i want to be as good on guitar as you are on piano
adams version is equally amazing but dont forget that he does the vocals also and has amazing voice,tyler though,puts vocals into notes and thats what makes him so special~respect to both of them,equally outstanding musicians!-imagine them collaborating!
My good friend Arya was obsesed with tool this song in particular he jumped of a building last friday may he rest in peace. I wish his family would have let me play this at his funeral
And the chuck norris post made me chuckle, but if the poster were a tool fan worth the plastic his scratched cds are made of I doubt he'd be such a hateful ignorant dick. May he recognize and abandon his dickishness, or get knocked right the f*** out of his own body and remember the loving creative power and harmony embodied in this holy song.
Absolutely f***ing brilliant!! Though even on piano its impossible to fully capture the song (it would take a 2 piano duet, maybe) and to previous posters, a good keyboard at around $500 is way better on space, dosnt need tuning, its semiportable, a fraction of the cost, and mimics among hundreds of other instruments, and all types of piano indistinguishably to the human ear (room accoustics differ however) I recomend the new yamahas.
One reason we have such a rich a diverse culture is the exploration of expression in art. Last I looked at your page you don't contribute anything to youtube, just criticism to this persons talents. What , if any, talents do you possess?
Wow, bassman, it's ignorant people like you that make the world unpleasant for the rest of us who recognize all the beauty to be found in the world. What would music be if people could not recreate it in a new way like this? Whether piano covers or string quartet versions - it's all unique and beautiful, and I feel sorry for you, that you cannot recognize what music really is.
Love what you're doing in the verse, though I think the opening riffs are a bit sloppy if I'm being honest, and you let the bass growl a bit too much with that pedal staying down. I can't help but think it's an F when you're hitting an E all through the "ride the spiral to the end" bit? You translate the last instrumental bits really well though.
Don't you just wish they had a little "danny carey" drum accompinament? My kingdom for those hi-hats!
i think adam monroes piano is MUCH better. The only thing that this guy does better is emphasis on the crescendos. But this is impressive nonetheless.
the keys sing it out for you "swing on the spiral on, fathom divinity and still be a human" and you can still get a feel for both guitar solo's and bass whammy solo the presence of that sent chills down my neck
wow man...good shit good shit...i know how to play piano quite well but i dumped it and went onto guitar to play slayer tool etc...i didnt know u can play tool and it will sound this good
on the craziest day of my life this kept me sane, playing it over and over while I stair at my roof. Thanks for creating the only thing I've got right now.
You express yourself so well through your playing. i Can really tell Tool is a big influence on your style. You play all of your covers so fluently and flawlessly. Again i give you props. Much deserved. Peace.
I quit playing this game i'm addicted to, Conquer, until I learn this song on piano....I dont think i'll be playing conquer for a loooooong time. You, sir, are amazing.
I love how you add a complete different dimension to these Tool songs which are already incredible. This and Pushit are really well done. Keep it up! :)
Let me help it's in 9/8,8/8, & 7/8:)Just a little knowledge from 1 musician to another,but what would I know about complex time signatures...right:)Can't wait for u to bash me for this:)Any heavy criticizm will be greatly appreciated-
Ha,where do u come up with this shit?Uh..No I don't,I only played it on r album,but no.I love how u follow me around,& make these abstract comments 4 which u have NO evidence to prove/disprove.I've played guitar/bass/& piano since I was 10.Why would u doubt I play piano?I can only assume it's because it'd kill u to know I'm a talented musician!If anyone has issues IT'S CLEARLY U!R u a musician,do u know what 9/8 means or the difference between a whole note an a 16th note?Define polymeter for me?
People who spend time bothering w/a conversation between a toilet & a musician need spend their time in better ways.If they are compelled beyond reason to chime in though,they may want to examine a few principles of play!A few example may be:1)Attempt to at least develop a valid arguement! 2)Define their absurdity to exist in the conversation period.3)My personal favorite; Be able to decipher the difference between someone being a bitch & someone making an innocent comment about liking something
Define "played it on r album". p.s -9/8 is a measure of compound time, a whole not has the value of four beats in common time, 1/16 note is a modification or semi-quaver in a whole note and a polymer is the use of two different time measures at the same time. all this from a guy who can only read guitar tab music!
I understand your confusion. I was only interjecting some knowledge not needed to be known if you play by ear, unless you are a music major (useless!). And no I'm not, I'm an engineer/mathematician but music can actually, like all things, be broken down into equations from calculus, differentials and fractals. That is one of the things I like most about Tool, and few know about this, but many songs are based on these. Lateralus itself is written to the pattern formed by the "golden ratio".
Yeah that's some crazy shit,a friend mentioned something about that to me,I wasn't really up to speed on what it was,but what he was saying sounded interesting.Also,I would agree "that" knowledge is only valuable in the sense of a discussion as opposed to writing a song,I just love people who chime in their useless criticizms when they themselves don't really know or understand the 1st thing about music,or what it takes to play it.This piano Lateralus though is really pretty great to watch-
