  • would you like to be my husband?

  • best on youtube

  • last comment 2 months ago wow ?

  • The room and piano your playing on look a lot like one of the practice rooms at my school.. weird lol. Good job (: I didn't know the name to this until I heard you playing it.

  • @Swimmingmania

    Actually, this song is named "Lux Aeterna" (that's Latin for Eternal Light). This song was on a soundtrack named "Requiem For a Dream". The movie was named "Requiem For a Dream", the soundtrack was named "Requiem For a Dream", but this song was named "Lux Aeterna". Still, for some reason, people keep calling this song "Requiem For a Dream" :). It doesn't really matter, but it's a funny fact.

  • lol, I have a feeling all the comments saying stuff like "you're such a pro, you make this seem so easy!" are people who never actually learnt how to play piano.

    He's playing the much simpler version of the song, which would be great for people on 1-2nd grade beginners. There's an advanced composition of Luz Aeterna for piano, which also has cello and violin accompaniments, which is incredible when done well.

  • @RileyWG i don't think anybody cares whether or not he's playing a simpler version of it...people just care about if it sounds like the actual song...

  • oook. all i can say it's that i love the way you're playing this song.

  • this song is easy to play

  • @gutterfroggify Not really.

  • @gutterfroggify play the song then

  • @Shitensou This song is hella easy to play. Once i finish learning to zanarkand i'm gunna put a video up of requiem for a dream. it's a really simple song.

  • @idontnoapassword i prefer aerith's theme.. what a beautiful song

  • @saderguy i want to learn one winged angel. that song is the way to go. but i don't have the sheet music for it. i got the sheet for to zanarkand for free. sephiroth's theme is my personal favorite. another one i like is decisive battle.

  • @idontnoapassword yes, one winged angel, that's a badass song, but don't play it for anyone until you have it perfected..heard that one butchered too many times to count

  • shit, need to change my pants again...

  • i tried learning this from your tutorials, i have no idea why i tried when i've been playing under 2 weeks hahaha!

  • excuse me, i have to kill 42+ people who have no talent, smarts, or a brain!!!

  • this yours second version, is even better than the first one mate. bravo!

  • The Bass sounded off for some reason, though it seems you were hitting the right notes. Brilliant job, though....I have trouble with the original. 

  • very very nice! you are professional on piano, ever

  • youtube.com/watch?v=yD771BQ-HD­I

  • omg i cant find the cord for my begginers piano well it got wet anyway lol

  • HAHAHA BETTER WITHOUT THAT KID! >:D

  • I'm learning how to play this. It's surprising simple, apart from the chorus. It's great.

  • Thumbs up.

  • I think the crazy chords are a little too crazy for me

  • @michael1996731 Lol, Crazy Chords are Crazy.. Gotta love it though.

  • Really really good! Maybe a better Cam with less filter and u'd be the best on youtube

  • Good, but camera's shaking ;)

  • its like.... SEX to the ears!

  • Haha I guess others have said it, I also like the other version more, it sounded more ominous, either because of the piano or you played it slower at pars.

  • u added in somthing on the end , the higher notes???were are they coming from?????

  • This is amazing dude. Both videos you have of this music piece is killer.

  • good work !!!!

  • the other requiem for a dream video was better :D

  • Deliciious!

  • love love love it!!

    *__*

  • i wanna play piano, i already play viola and guitar, next i have to find mony to get a keyboard or something

  • i actually think the other is better. must be the piano.

  • Yep the grand piano gives better sound!

  • @marctoro96 agreed when he did it on the gran it sounded better apart from the kids in background

  • I'm amazed every time I hear this song...and I've heard it alot:p

    Great job:D

  • This is the best version of this song... Really great job

    Good Job, though

  • @stgbld94 maybe because it is easy ¯\o_0/¯ ?

  • all days i see and hear this music

  • Is my favorite music

  • u ar great <3

  • nice =)

  • very nice, great music

  • great job

  • hey i recognize your cheek!!

  • great job.bryan

  • Great! Awesome playing, but it seems to me like you lost a little of the dreamy, surreal feeling that made the first edition so good.

  • Great song, great playing.

    Was the piano a little out of tune? Well, it didn't matter; you aced the music anyways.

  • I believe some of the really low note might have been slightly out of tune, and that is probably what your hearing, and that is often found in most pianos, it's very hard to get those strings in tune, and for them to stay in tune.

    Good job, i like this song tones, I've learned it myself, but i didn't quite do it like the music says, I simplified the left hand part and changed around the arrangement, maybe I'll have a video soon.

  • Yeah, the low keys are pulled so tight that they are almost always out of tune. It didn't really matter, you played so beautifully.

  • especially with uprights

  • I like the accelerando towards the middle end, nice work.

  • You need to practice your tempo a little bit more, aside of that you did excelent and thanks for the tutorials

  • No one's asking you to listen, wiseass.

  • man requiem is like my favourite

  • gread...i have played pioano when i was a child and now i play it again but just a bit for fun...at the moment i lern to play teardrop ;)

    and after it i will learn Requiem For a Dream...maybe ;)

  • awesome!

    im trying to play this song too, but actually i dont have time for practise... :P I can only play the beginning...

  • i play piano for 9 years i can tell u that requiem is not easy but not so hard...

    there is a much longer version to this

  • where can it be found?? :)

  • Brilliant Brilliant

  • That was great! Very good song and good playing! Where can I get the sheet music to it?

  • are you playing in a public bathroom or what?

  • my god i love the crazy chords bit

  • Hey wait a sec...aren't you the guy on the "Requiem for a dream on grand piano"? you remind me of him a bit but I'm not sure

  • yes he is :)

  • nice i can play this song too!

  • :)

    wonderful

  • great playing man. hearing this song made me want to watch the movie again and shoot up dope. jk..

  • Thnx sooo much for teaching me this song, i can play this fully pro now like u.

  • Then i'm jealous of you too (in a good way :D). Was it hard to learn? I wanna try it...

  • its quite easy tbh, the only thing i had problems with was: picking out the chords near the end section. Plus, the octave leaps might challenge u if u dont hav big hands.

  • This is really good playing, and the playing is very fluent and contains a perfect amount of emotion and drama. The only thing I think I can tell is I believe, at the beginning, there is supposed to be a crescendo to add to the dramatic build up of the first chorus. But I can also understand why you wouldn't play it, even if you did know about it. Great job. ^^

  • i agree with mapam17. not everyone who knows notes can do this. especially if you get deep into studying the chords and trying out experiments like a have =) i have actually played this song in its relative minor and it sounds realy realy cool i think i might make it my first video added to youtube from me. called the other side of requiem for a dream lolz...

  • you are german, right?

  • well ok, you're right...it is difficult to understand, and yes you have to play piano for some time to do this^^ BUT, nearly everybody who knows how to read notes can play this (better or worse)

    and if you're already playin piano for over 8 years and have been playing on chopin-competitions (with success) then this seems just...like a small cute song^^

  • Easy to play, very difficult to understand.

  • Thanks for posting.

  • Bravo

  • and you can play piano right? I'm just bothered about the statement that nearly everybody can do this... ;)

  • ööh i could show you how to play this song :D it's nearly all the same just some various accords nothing more

  • okay... show us how you play this song-.-

  • ääääh it's not that hard to play this song ^^

  • Beautiful job! Loved it!!

  • the first one was awesome but it's even better the second time ^__^ GOOD JOB!! amazing!!

  • This is lighter version of it.

    Here (FI0oELRcBTI on youtube) is the best version I've ever seen here.

  • I don't know why, but it sounds better on grand piano.

  • I agree... there is note that kinda just don't fit.
