[notrickroll]

[ElvisPresley2424]

This screams "I want lyrics!"

[brandybemyname]

still my favorite <3

[blackratsnakes]

whoo hoo!

[brandybemyname]

lovely beautiful absolutely perfect amazing sweet relaxing

[brandybemyname]

wow haha, first time ive been here since i got you on my mp3 player..still love the video though <3

[blackratsnakes]

sure you could, you just have to sit down and play around unitl you come up with a good riff. Then it eventually develops into a song.  I bet you're really creative if you try :) Thank you for the compliment.

[awakeningstorm]

very soothing.. :) you Rock! v(^_^)

[melodiedejordanie]

I'm... speechess! This is absolutely breath-taking! One of the most beautiful compositions I've ever heard! I really love listening to it! x

[blackratsnakes]

What a compliment, thank you! Keep on singing and writing yourself, you have a wonderful voice.

[melodiedejordanie]

You watched my video? x

[blackratsnakes]

Of course, I like to check out the people who take the time to look and comment on my stuff.

[brandybemyname]

wow you said it PERFECTLY..

[brandybemyname]

omg, sooo true :D

[psychowolf271]

brilliant i cant think of anything so great ever since i dried up composing wise

[blackratsnakes]

thanks man, keep composing yourself.

[brandybemyname]

love it...hehehhehehheheh

[brandybemyname]

still awesome

[blackratsnakes]

always appreciate your comments :)

[brandybemyname]

thanks...btw..grr..i forgot someting..jejejej....i cant transport anything from my pc to my piano at home..grr...love the song though..looks tough to play

[blackratsnakes]

I don't think it's so bad but it all depends on how easy my style is when other people try to play it.

[brandybemyname]

i meant....the note arrangement..looks tough to me..but im not really spectacular..jeje..

[blackratsnakes]

notes always look tougher than the song is. Once you get the gist of it, it's like butta!

[brandybemyname]

haha, yeah,.i just have that little prob of having pc at work and piano at home and no printer.,...grr..its like..teasing me..

[brandybemyname]

how hard would you say this is to play??

[blackratsnakes]

if you include your email address in a message to my inbox I'll send you the sheet music. It's not hard to play in my opinion but it all depends on a person's style and how another person adapts to it.

[brandybemyname]

kewl thanks

[brandybemyname]

more than words

[EquineGrace]

[blackratsnakes]

[brandybemyname]

cool

[LillyC68]

Lovely,

thanks for sharing!

best wishes,

Lilly

[blackratsnakes]

you bet, thank you.

[thecupdidit]

this is a gr8 song coz its not something u could play in any romcom or adventure movie lol and its not something you could neccessarily reflect over its just something that you actually have to stop and listen to as a piece of music-forgetting structures and stuff. its pretty awesome. x

[blackratsnakes]

you need to be my publicist with your great reviews.. Seriously thanks.

[brandybemyname]

its perfect

[blackratsnakes]

I don't do too many slow tunes (like to keep them upbeat and quirky) but once in awhile I crank out something like a ballad.

[brandybemyname]

well..when you do, it like everything else you do, it is wonderful

[fabiandevries]

This is really great!! I would love to give it a try, I heard you have the sheets. Could you share them with me (I'll PM you if you can)? And ofcourse, in return I'll record it myself as well and post it as a video reply :D!!

[blackratsnakes]

Yes I have the sheet music for this one. Just send me a message to my inbox and include an email address so I can send it as an attachment. I would be thrilled if you recorded a cover of it and posted it.

[brandybemyname]

its beautiful, melodic, sweet, probbably my all time fav piano solo

[blackratsnakes]

Thanks so much. I do have sheet music to this if you play and want to try it.

[brandybemyname]

oh cool..but i would suck at it...ive been playing for a year, guitar for a month..and im pretty much at the same level on both..you are VERY good..

[KristenM12345]

Beautiful song, I love it. Laid back pieces are my favorites. I love listening to all of your songs and you're very talented!

[blackratsnakes]

This one along with "March Of The Wounded" seem to be the most popular, maybe "Awakening Storm" too. Sometimes I look back and wonder how I composed these songs but don't worry, I have some duds too :) Thanks for listening.

[darkpdxwolf]

Beautifully played. Very passionate.

This is reminiscent (to me, at least) of some nocturnes, specifically those by Chopin, so I would say the title is right on.

Good luck with your sales. I think I am going to buy now.

[blackratsnakes]

Thank you for all your comments. Yes expression for me doesn't always come natural, sometimes I have to really apply myself. It's easier on the pieces I create myself though.

[lilmispotter]

This is beautiful, it took my breath away.

You put a tear in my eye! I'll try and buy your album when I get some money, you deserve it.

[blackratsnakes]

Thank you! Since I'm not the most talented player in the world, I try to be unique with my compositions. This was the first one I composed on the baby grand, maybe there's something inspiring about the piano.

[12345678910charlie]

i have listened to every one of your compositions i could find, i love them all but this one is definately my favorite, thank you for sharing your work

[blackratsnakes]

A very big "you're welcome" for that comment. I might have to try more laid back tunes like this. Thanks for listening.

[KurArtSHUDU]

This is truly beautiful! For me, in a light-hearted way, you could see it positively as autumn, but if you try to see it the other way, as midnight, it's actually like a mixture of mistery and magic. But in both you can imagine the letting go of the day, or the falling autumn leaves, the sense of peace and tranquility it provides. Just goes to show that your music is so great that it doesn't only wake up one emotion, but can transmit many other points of views and emotions. Thanks for composing.

[psalm8510]

Another of my favorites. It does seem like Midnight, yet Autumn..hmm maybe 'A midnight in Autumn'? XD sry, im babbling. Anyway, it's very riviting. If I knew anything about piano, I would offer constructive critisism, but allas, i know nothing. So all you get is: "wow. that's so amazing! very beautiful, and again: your hands are fluid!!"

[blackratsnakes]

Hey don't you worry, I eat those last few comments up :) Thanks for looking at so many of my songs.

[Biochips1]

Really great. I'm always impressed by people making their own music. Have you even wrote lyrics for this nice tune?

[blackratsnakes]

Not for this tune but for others, yes.

[sweetdeebaby]

In response to the comments below about the name - it does feel like midnight to me; as in the close of the day. The letting go of the madness built up over the course of the day; and then sitting in a state of semi-calmness to reflect upon the short span of life spun from conflict and interactions....a pooling of thoughts and emotions at the end of a finite period of time; a few moments of letting go...only to start afresh come the dawn of day....

[blackratsnakes]

wow, you should be my promoter! Very nicely said, thanks for the interpretation :)

[sweetdeebaby]

No, thank you! ;) the music inspired the words

[toniwatson]

ive watched most of your vids, and i gotta say, youre really good.

keep composing (:

[waldyrargentojr]

It is a very beatifull song! Congratulations!!!

[lmleland]

This is a really great piece. Love the mello sound of the piano, too! I've always liked the sound of the Yamaha pianos.

[Hyardacil]

Liked it. Very dynamic. The left hand thing you pointed out at the beginning, adds alot actually. I like it.

Nice melodylines, though I still say, you could add some changes of tempo and mood in it. Perhaps switch a key for a section.

Didn't ring "Midnight" to me... but ahwell.

5/5 still.

[blackratsnakes]

Thanks. Maybe the name of a season instead, like Autumn? Although I have a song already by that name.

[RavenStarZSO]

lol, even though u already have a piece by that name, this definately sounds autumn to me. When I hear it, I imagine all sorts of beutifully colored trees with their leaves floating sweetly down.... lol, yeah, thats just what I visualize ^_^

[Pokemewithdots]

i agree

[LonePianist3]

Amazing! How many years have you been playing? You really should make a cd and sell it! I know that this one other pianist on YouTube made a cd and sended it to iTunes and now he's making money. :D

[baecel01]

it reminds me of a chicago song....i listen to too much music....i cant pin point it. LOVELY all the same!

[blackratsnakes]

Thanks very much, always love knowing people are listening to some of my originals :)

[themask70]

Really nice song, you've got some real tallent.

[JucHugi]

That's a dinamic midnight:) Nice piece, congrats!
