Very beautiful take on the song. Had my hair standing on end in a few parts. Every now and agail a group produces a song so moving, so haunting that you have to store it in as many places you can. On flash drives, In your YouTube, on and external HD and of course on your iPod. This is one of those songs.
DUDE you are so awesome i wish i had your skills and i will practice till my fingers bleed and do it with a smile just so long as i can play tool like you cause they are my all time favorite band and when i die i hope i hear tool while i see my life flash before my eyes :D and beatles :D thank you
I dont play piano, but I am a musician, who has been a die hard tool fan since 1992, and I know all of their material thoroughly inside and out, and I can say with absolutely zero fear of contradiction, that you sir are extremely talented and on point with every single song that Ive listened and watched you play on here. Keep up the good work mate...
i wonder if in 100s of years from now, people will be learning this stuff in music school, like its our times equivalent to beethoven or someone like that. when you hear it like this it sounds truly classical.
@TheDobligator no lyrics are needed.... pianos are the only instrument that can sing for you while you play. its incredible.... vkgoeswild is another great pianist that i'm sure you would love. think shes better actually, then again, no lyrics. but dude its just a piano thing. just imagine adding lyrics to classical music. it would seem......barbaric. once you get good enough with an instrument words just seem to intrude. acoustic artists like john clarke or igor presnyakov would agree.
@Williama15k I'm not talking about lyrics. I just mean the sound of a voice as an instrument. I think we can all agree that while Tool makes incredible use of all sounds, Maynard's passionate singing is a critical part of their music, especially in songs such as Lateralus or Rosetta Stoned (10,000 Days is of course a prime example. I just haven't seen Adam Monroe cover it.). That's just why I prefer Monroe. This guy is still really good.
@TheDobligator I have watched several videos on Monroe12478's channel and I have to disagree. Monroe simply covers tracks, Thumphrey transforms them.. if I want the original I will listen to it.
@connectproject Touche about the sound quality, but actually, Monroe just takes patterns and notes from the part of the song he's playing and improvises off of them. Sometimes he does just play what is played on the guitar or bass guitar in the song but often he plays his own rythems to it. Listen to his Lateralus.
Awesome arrangements! Thanks for the terrific hands view so that some of us who want to try to copy your success can give it a shot. Tremendous demonstration of the breadth of the piano's expressive capabilities through sustain and/or key velocity. I couldn't ask for anything more, people like you are why I love the internet.
@MrKeys199 maynard have always sayd that he isn't a god... he's just a singer... a great singer... my favorite... but not a god... just a human that have swung on the spiral ;)
Truly an epic conversion to the piano, this version is hipnotic and trance like in the way it draws you in and makes you want to listen again & again. Thumphery05 whoever you are thank you so much for this and your over great piano translations.
ok even though thats me below i also wanted to know if there is anyway you could do a tutorial or sheet music or something, if there had to be one piano song i learn i want it to be this one
Such a beautiful song to begin with than add a fucking piano and Jesus fuck I am in heaven let me know when you make an album I want it write me and I'll send you postage money!!!!
This is very good, but i just have one problem. It kind of goes too fast for someone to sing. I understand that time is an issue for Youtube videos, but this song is within the limit. Other than that, this was very good.
so i've commented on your videos a million times but i really just wanted to say this.
Your covers of Tool are by far the best on this website. The mere fact that you include each member of the band in the song is amazing... This is the best piano cover of this song on this website. It doesn't need vocals, it's beyond amazing.
I'm beyond amazed right now. I can't even find the right words to describe how I felt while watching and listening to this and I feel like "beautiful" and "amazing" just fall short of how much I want to say.
This is one of Tool's most amazing songs. I'm proud to hear something that they created and be completely able to imagine that somebody lik bach wrote it.
Cheers :) It wasn't too bad actually, I could already play quite a bit of it on guitar though, so didn't have to spend ages deciphering the notes. My reach isn't as big as his, so I have to play the low D during the verses with my right hand then leap up for the vocal melody, which was pretty tricky to get used to. Right in two is looking like being quite a bit more work.
I was riddiculously impressed with your ability to keep the odd time and play the lead at the 4 1/2 minute point...I've always loved how that part works in the song and you pulled it off nicely :-)
Lol, how can a cover on a different instrument, effectively a stylistic change be "better" than a band playing the original? I love this, he's great, but you can't compare apples and oranges haha
If I only had no neighbours so I could play this on Volume 11 at 02:38am... I told you once before, and I will again: Your playing is absolutely totally infuckincredible!
Fantastic work...still confused about one thing though...Does everyone who makes these videos purposefully turn the camera just enough degrees off so that no one else can learn it too without breaking their necks?
ur so annoying dude :P... get a tempo-holder! your songs are perfect to practice vocals with except nearly everything is double as fast and switches between different speeds! argH! but great job man ;)
TOOL's songs do that dude ie off beats and this guy is playing both the vocals and instruments (the hole band ! so he has to play it faster to get all of of it in, this guy is a genius !
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
nice. the first half is VERY easy on the ears.
didn't much like the second half of the song. It sounds like TOOL got bored half way through it and just made a bunch of noise for a few minutes and just said, "Run it, I don't wanna do it again...."
You are amazing....I see this video every single day, and it just gets better and better.. What kind of piano do you have? It sounds really beautiful..!!
This is the result of, from what i can tell, an aurally gifted musician. Kudos to you my friend its people like you that inspire all of us to become masters of our instruments. im a drummer learing piano and guitar atm and believe me what i have learnt so far is opening doors i never conciously thought about. Thank you.
I don't see sheet music and have never heard this version before. I would guess he's doing it by ear and that he has done it many times before. Truly awesome!
Check out my version of this cover. I think it's most better...
