Sonic 2: Aquatic Ruin Zone on piano

[2002liv]

16 people are not good at playing to piano

[ReiOn8]

Sometimes I wonder why the music in Aquatic Ruin, sounds like some Korean drama.... O.O;

[j0a0a7]

Nice

[MercuriusWarrior]

I wanna dance if i hear him play :D

[YoungFenix07]

AWESOME!



[usernameeiinvalid]

All you guys are freakin critics, I bet you guys can't even PLAY the piano. e_e

[shaddiGhumri]

@usernameeiinvalid i can but no where near the level this guy can

[menojohnson]

what kind of keyboard is he playing on????

[MasterfulG]

@menojohnson I think it's a Yamaha Digital Piano judging by the colors: toy silver and wood.

[squrrelguy]

me likey

[shyngo]

Nice work. That's a tough song with a screwy, shifty tempo.

[arzamond]

nice play.. but too fast.

[thecreator224]

@arzamond too fast? if its anything its too slow, but just slightly, i have sonic 2 and its almost the same tempo.

[thecreator224]

this is good. the piano synth doesn't suit the song but you played the songs chords and keys well. good job frank.

[JustinCzubas]

Aight, I give you mad props considering that even though I've been playing piano for 6 years, learning this song is still a pain. But the thing is, you should really perfect it more before you record and upload. I think you should practice this more, and record and upload it again....especially considering I think you can do a LOT better after 4 years!

[metalWIENERsolid]

a drippin dat chawklate sawcccce

[Allplussomeminus]

YOU PLAY WELL! You just need to practice to be on point with song's tempo.

[Hakustearsofsnow]

Tying to watch close... But hard to see what keys are being pressed... Generalized idea.... Combine with playing by ear I hope to figure it out. Well done! keep playing. ^_^

[Rdfa202]

Can you please give me the chords? i'm having hard time finding them online and figuring them out on the piano.

[Rdfa202]

@Rdfa202 Actually nvm about that, found them :)

[44eelz]

hah nice, Sonic music owns all on keyboards

[Mrsjonas4now]

AWESOME

Man ur a pro it looks

I want to play it now!!!!!!!!!!!

xDD

Keep up the good job xDD

[Acceberroni]

Epic!

[KnucklesFan4ever]

Well done! Don't listen to the critics! U play damnly cool! 

[ILovePeanutButer7181]

this is so fucked to play on piano

[ShadowSonic64]

pretty good :D

[DanameaTheBattleLock]

Pretty good man , but my constructive criticism would be that your Tempo is a little speratic, and some of the chords you are using are a scale to low. But your overall control is good , and by the movement of your fingures you also show a degree of knowledge of 'The piano' itself ( ie. you probably practice alot and are comfortable with 'where everything is')

[9legoboy9]

Nice job!

[LiQkUiD]

nice

[LiQkUiD]

nice!

[CosmonautGhost]

Needs moar metronome pls.

[CrossStrife]

This is good. Do you play by ear or somehow find sheets of these songs?

[bdog2damax]

how did he learn the time to remember all of these

[sonicoliver]

your dynamics are a bit off, but awesome regardless!

[perfectsuperchaos7]

good music horribly hard zone

[sonicmaster110022]

Sounds more like the beta music. I like it!!! :)

[galaxyxgamer]

that is sooooo frigging cool!!!!:)u are my hero:)

[atoseco]

DUDE YOU ARE AMAZING

[kokumaru]

bravo, bravo-nicely done

[DemaeTC]

Of all the sonic songs I have tried to learn myself, this is the only song that gave me complications (Other than the Elite four Champion Music from Pokemon Red/Blue version). Nicely done!

[madadivad1986]

Pretty cool. The timing's a little off, but really good otherwise!

[SplinterSuperCell]

AWSOME!! I can only play the left hand only or right hand only. I cant play both. It's really really hard for me.

[mysticalpotato86]

one of my favourites, i loved that level.

[inbloom123123]

you are GOD..seriously..

[jriley1992]

That is great! Sonic the Hedgehog orchestra lol!

[hitalinic]

[weeblcrabs]

[VexanRFM]

[gangstawoot]

[Leathertoast]

Shit dude

[Chrisman7878]

saugage

[jwp000002]

i love it wen ppl like u put up a vid of them playing a piano or keyboard and they play it beautiful unlike some ppl who put up rubbish

thank you jwp000002

[jtblack21]

Its beautiful I cant say anything else

[RivekTheFallen]

Damn nice arrangement.

[xXTRShadowXx]

wow very nice !!!

[PhenyxClanClan]

Stunning! I can play this on guitar but Ive always loved the way these songs sound on piano. Good stuff dewd!

[Rnt911]

u suck, u can't do anything.

[HalfDeadorFull]

oh wow, this was amazing. I simply play songs by ear; i play what i hear, and thus they sound very..... mediocre..... but this was amazing, sheet music or a tutorial would be amazing!

[krosniux]

funny

[N1N4]

How so?

[Ichigomuto]

Can you please I begging can you pleas make a tutorial of this Please

[boru25]

THATS AMAZING! HOW DID YOU LEARN THIS?

[CasketGirl]

great! love it! :D

[jtblack21]

This is my favorite song out of all the classic sonic songs and one of the most difficult songs to play on the piano. This takes a lot of practice and lots of hard work to play this song.

[sverige26200]

bouoh hop!!!

[pianosketcher]

I hate critics, this is indeed a hard song to play, I know, I can play it. most people who think it sucks can't even play a single part of this song. great job 5 stars.

[wookums2015]

Would you like to do this? Everyone's a critic. It's not like he gets paid for doing this.

[pupstud]

That wasn't a critic, idiot and I know he's not getting paid. I'm just givin some pointer beside I listen all the game music and on top of that I'm a musician and I go to collegue for music. SO, giving some few pointer doesn't hurt. Let me talk you don't jump on the conclusion for no reason if you don't know what I meant.

[pupstud]

*let me tell you something don't jump on the conclusion for no reason if you don't know what I meant. ( rephrase)

[NedLooks]

@wookums2015 and he never will.

[Removes]

I don't think pupstud's critcism was meant to be volatile in any manner.

[darkrazielgod]

2 thumbs up ;)

[thecoolguy1291]

beautiful man this takes me back to my childhood back in 93 playing it on my Genesis gives me chills just remembering thanks

[benjaminkenobi21]

This is amazing work man. This isn't an easy song to recreate. People, including myself, like this tune so much because of the Latin flavor, especially in the bassline and the rhythm. The fact that someone wrote this and stuck it in a videogame is doubly awesome. Much props.

[BeatDarkX]

very good!

[LHCLEGION]

some songs sound better on guitar. this isn't one of them. good work.

[RectalDiscourse]

another perfect emulation, way to transition it to piano in a most eloquent and smooth manner.

[krydder]

You are good.

[erickyes08]

Muy Bueno,Good!

[MacGear14]

Holy crap, stop rushing!!! The notes are great, but take some rests and put in a few gaps there, buddy- you're speeding!!

[Marmalade000000]

Dude!! That's amazing that you can play all the Sonic tunes on Piano!! I envy you!!

[okachoe]

me too lol

[DXDJ]

Once again, YOU ARE THE MAN!!

[sanojnevets]

OMG, this song just f***ing rocks. I love it and now Before I die it will be my goal to learn this song on the piano, It seems like more of a challenge on the piano than a guitar, althoough I like guitars better, but this is just a great performance, well done, give up the notes.

[m1cestdeargentina]

me puedes dar las notas o acordes porfas!!!

[2Tailsfox]

Dude, you played this song really well, and this is a quite hard one. Nice work again. =D

[Dragon2659]

can u send e the notes for right hand plzzzzzzzzz

[Kh2fanalways]

Wow your awesome at that! wish i was that good.

[victor147159]

Very good ^_^

Can you give tuturial?

[1957HAM]

Make a tutorial for the melody, just the melody, not the bass.

[draculaschik]

I really despise when people get really picky about how a song should sound just because it does not sound exactly like how it sounds in the original. Just so everyone knows, songs are not intended to sound exactly like the original song in an instrumental piece. And also, certain songs such as this are hard to play on a piano, so you people who are picky for perfection, you try to play this as best as you can and see if you can get any better than this with enough practice.

[kougraspirit]

And before you people give that comment a bad rating, its completely my opinion and I should be able to share my opinion. And one more thing, WAFFLES. >:D

[kougraspirit]

I honestly think this is better then the original. XD Very nice.

[topsyandpip56]

Yayyyyyyyyy!

[LennoxLewis86]

This may be a really dumb question but is the rhythm off because of the difficulty of the songs? Because although it still sounds really good!! it just doesn't flow smoothly =(

[GunShard]

Good song, but you should connect your piano audio directly to your computer and record audio, so the sound quality is sounds better. :]

[BalladiFieno]

thats horrible :(

[frankied14]

why

[1957HAM]

Because I want to know it.

[Sirga2]

be nice

[lookaguru]

@BalladiFieno - gtfo

[Animegirllover1996]

@BalladiFieno

[Darkpop676]

@Animegirllover1996 a lot better than you prolly. here I challenge you, do this exact song and put it up on Youtube since you're so amazing.

[SRPC21]

@BalladiFieno You bring one out and do better then mate. I thought it was great btw

[Keithskool]

Haha - 1.33am & im doing the same! Cant help but think these tunes are still mint..reminds me of when i was a kid..i guess thats nostalgia for you!!! Fantastic work mate!

[soulsyphon1]

[kgamefreak826]

Love this song. kudos to you ;)

[LucasCAPS]

hahaha Indeeeeed, it does look like salsa.

[Yameuh17]

I can play some of this on the pan flute.

[Bjordsoderman]

Why don't you put it on youtube?:)

[LucasCAPS]

A hell of a good idea.

[LucasCAPS]

What Bjordsoderman said.

[UndergroundInsomniac]

Dude how long have you been playing piano? Your awesome at it. Wish I could play like that.

[Chrisman7878]

sorry bout my last cmt, ur fucking awesome, from 58 to 1:17 ur flawless!!

[ShangTsung2]

very good young man...interesting play...10/5

[Chrisman7878]

u amaze me, could be better, but could also be much worse. 8 out of 10

[jmmyvega]

close enough. but i dont come nowhere as near as dis trying to recreate the song on a piano or synthesizer.

[Zabuza28]

eh not the same feeling

[BluEKiddLD]

why not? =S

[BluEKiddLD]

Flawless, love this theme!

[Phebie923]

are you serious, i love you for playing this song.

[blackpowerkid87]

keep 'em comin man!

[Rinnage]

<3. I love this zone song.

[aharris82]

Great job!

[Arthasu]

WOW! TOTALLY AMAZING!

[yumi0luvs0sonic]

thats so awesome! i love sonic! i am gonna learn how to do that

[PastStory]

I can't do it where it picks up at .24

[Whip0fAlchemy]

So f*ckin' amazing!!! <3~

[dihiddy]

These Sonic songs are tough to make them sound right because here the bass overpowers the music and that's why the beginning is kinda confusing. Electronic keyboard are pretty much impossible to change volume. But this is very interesting to listen too! My fav sonic songs are as follows:

1. Ice Cap Act 1 (Sonic 3)

2. Doomsday (Sonic & Knuckles)

3. Wing Fortress (Sonic 2)

4. Diamond Dust Act 1 (Sonic 3D Blast)

[JacobRudduck]

Very good

[BaltotheHusky]

AWESOME!!! ♥ it! 5/5 *favs*

[kindgirlz1]

wooow

[javaman8769]

mexican music.... ok... i dont know what it sounds like really.... lol

[nimrod814]

somehow i agree, awesome job

[Urvy1A]

Somehow, the song in general reminds me of Mexican msuic.

[Sunrose111]

you got awesome skills

[lildrummerboy8561]

You're my fucking hero...

[DaBlackSmokeMonster]

I reckon this is one of the hardest sonic 2 soundtracks to do...was it?

[PastStory]

I have the sheet music for this, but it is too advanced for me. =(

[viralplatipuss]

Yeah I realised when it said "Frank DAngelo" as the arranger. :) Fantastic playing by the way.

[viralplatipuss]

Thankyou ShadoNinja, the sheetmusic there sounds a lot better :) Cheers.

[frankied14]

thats because its the song i play in this video, plus i was the one that arranged it, :)

[viralplatipuss]

Do you have the sheet music for this? The only sheet music I can find doesn't sound as good as the way your playing it.

[ShadoNinja]

you could probably find it at ninsheetmusic :)

[krainesgirl]

omg!

i love this tune!!!!<333333

and you play it very very nicely

[moltres234]

cool i love this music

[MarissaAdams]

YESSS! This is my fovorite one (next to the one from that 6th zone...Mystic Cave, I think?) Awesome job.

[frankied14]

im trying... its one of the hardest.. I also have yet to do the final boss, and death egg, and a few others.

[DaNumba1Rapper]

nice...I wanna see you do the Mystic Cave Zone :O

[ghettosagal]

DITTO

[Alianger]

thats great, fav tune from the game.

[frankied14]

yea, i have, i arranged 31 sonic 2 songs, but honestly, i dont have enough time to put all 31 videos together with screenshots and gameplay and make it all nice, so im just going to put all the songs up in separate videos, and have one big video of all the sound effects and such like super sonic, game over, title, continue, so keep watching, in fact im uploading some more of the zones now.

P.S. Subscribe to my channel :)

[hollo9681]

this is the best vid ive seen u play - ever thought about doing a sonic 2 vid like gori's?

[sicstringed]
