  • Wow! That's just AMAZING!

    I also used to play Piano about 10 years ago. I took lessons for 3 years, which made me be able to play some pieces of Bach and Mozart.

    But i was so bored of that classical stuff, that i quitted playing. Now, hearing these beautiful sounds, i'm about to bite my ass, that i didn't keep it going. But, regarding that i'm actually playing drums for 6 years now, and don't even have time for that in the moment, i won't start to re-learn playing piano again.Otherwise i'd do.

  • growing pains was played so beautifully...

  • you were forced to watch Young and the Restless!!

  • I love Family Ties! Go Alex P. Keaton! Can you please do "We Know the Wind" by Terry Fewer? It's the theme song for The Adventures of the Black Stallion, if you know it.

  • I meant -3

  • Nicely done! My favorite was the Mary Tyler Moore song!!! -3

  • Australia's channel 7 also uses the NBC nightly news (by the superhuman John Williams) theme! It's awesome!

  • FRIENDS YAY!!!

  • so, do you just play by ear? Regardless, you're still good.

  • Even though you are only 28, your theme choices here bring back a ton of memories for those in the 40 yr old range (like me). For that I thank you.

  • You just made my favourites!! Brilliantly done, a great selection, well performed!! :D

  • can you do one with cartoon themes?

  • Thank you for the inspiration. you have made me start taking piano lessons

  • That's great! If you like how I play, make sure you're at least devoting some time to playing by ear, good luck :-)

  • This is awesome! Please make a tutorial to the nbc theme

  • man this is indeed very relaxing..

  • almost cried during the growing pains one.

  • How is it possible that 7 people dont like this? Its like the best sound ive ever heard!

  • absolutely amazing!!!

  • sometimes the sound of piano makes me relaxing

  • Great work! I really liked your version of the MacGyver theme.

  • good job men!! i play the piano by ear for years, i´d like to play like you, you have done i had a nice time listening you. You´re a crack!! A hang from Madrid (Spain) for you.

  • 07.55 Friends Theme!

    Very good!

  • we have the same keyboard! great job guy keep it up

  • Where everybody knows your name...

  • you're awsome!!!

  • you play by ear or have you got a sheet ?

  • BEAUTIFUL! FANTASTIC JOB!

  • 2:23 YES!

  • 1:31...beautiful

  • do you have the nots ore do you play without?

    but what you du here is very good!!!!!

    respect!!!

  • Was the therapy worth it?

  • awesome!

  • WOW WOW WOW WOW WOW

    If you can make TV theme songs sound this amazing, I'd love to hear what you can do with Mozart or Beethoven!

  • I would love to hear the growing pains theme by itself..I would so download...it is so pretty...I wish I could hear the whole thing

  • wow, the Perfect Strangers theme slowed down was excellent guy. Seriously.

  • You are verry good!!

    Fantastic!!

  • I love your videos!!!! I can play piano, too but... to be honest... I'll never reach your level:) I'm just speechless...

  • never give up, there is great potential within all of us!

  • fantastic!!

  • congratulations! could you please provide sheets? or do you improvise? I was hoping to find some good sheets for Friends, and your music is awesome! thanks!

  • P.S....have you had many lessons or are you just a natural? I'm trying to find a teacher who can teach me to do what you do. i.e., arrange, improvise, embellish, etc. So far I can read music and play with feeling and have a good ear. But I want to do more!

  • Wow! Why haven't I seen you before? You're great.

    I've always wanted to play a TV/movie theme medley. I don't play as well as you do, tho. Esp. not w/o sheet. I'd be VERY interested in buying sheet music if you come up w/ any.

    I was a kid in the 70's so the songs I had in mind were from All in the Family, Mary Tyler Moore, Welcome Back Kotter, Alice, Lou Grant, Bob Newhart &/or Newhart, Dallas, Love Boat, Fantasy Island, Simon & Simon, & more. I would LOVE to hear more of your medleys!

  • I especially like the transition from MacGyver to Growing Pains... that just was a good one. :) I've been listening to all of your melodies for the last hour or so and they are just wonderful. I'm jealous... :) Keep up the creativity...

  • You're wonderfull

  • I can be having a horrible day, and after just 1 minute of listening to you, it's all okay again! Many thanks for the magic you've posted on YouTube.

  • Great!

    You are the Piano Man!!!!!

  • what are the first 4 songs i didn't know

  • Pssst, I'll tell you a secret but tell no one. Click on the "More Info" and magic will happen.

  • I love your transitions.

    They're so smooth..

  • MacGyver and Cheers <3

  • is it sad that i only recognized one of those?

    oh well iy's still beautiful

  • i so love MacGyver!!! superb!!

  • Loved the fact you worked West Wing & sisters in there. Two beautiful TV themes that don't get a lot of credit. Awesome job!

  • amazing!

  • whats that song that starts around 6:20? thats in a mary j blidge song!!!

  • The theme to "The Young & The Restless" (Nadia's Theme). Hence whys he says "we were young & restless in the lyrics.

  • thats the young and the restless.

  • Yeah nice west wing, sounds a bit like S3,E1 intro.

  • Wonderful version of The West Wing

  • beautiful!

  • you are exactly correct john williams is a superhuman! the greatest composer of the age!

  • I was just listening to a radio show the other day talking about John WIlliams....the number of iconic themes attributed to him is absolutely ridiculous.

  • Danny Elfman's really good, too. John Williams is awesome, though.

  • i melt every time when i hear you play the young and the restless LOL could just sit here all day and listen and watch you play!

  • I like the friend theme you played.

  • West Wing <3

  • u should totally play the Incredible Hulk tv show ending

  • I used to LOVE Growing Pains! So upset they only have the first series out on DVD now! :P

    just recently I watched the entire show (yes, all what is it, eight seasons?) online.

    I did it in like a weekend.

    it was amazing. =D

  • oooh how do you do that?!

  • Ooh yeah where do they have them online? I miss teenage Kirk Cameron...he was the main reason I watched the show lol. :)

  • you play very well!! and i´m a big fan of john williams>one of the best componist in the world!!!

  • Can you give me the notes for the Nightly News theme?

  • sorry I might roland rd not pd...I heard they've been discontinued

  • yay for perfect strangers!!!!!!!!!!!

  • John Williams "Superhuman"....couldn't agree more...Bravisimo

  • you are one of the best pianists I've seen on youtube

    and I love the sound of your piano...I may look into investing one. it's a Roland PD 700sx correct?

    I have an fp2 and its begininng to get on my nerves...

  • That is just beautiful. I'm guessing "The Young & The Restless" was one of the ones you were forced to watch as a kid. LOL. My mom raised me with it also and now I can't tear myself away from it!

  • Fantastic!

  • Loved all the songs, reminds me of growing up in the 80's!

  • Ok I ve been playing classical piano for 13 years .I'm pretty good ,not LANG-LANG fast or anything but a good all rounder.Anyways can someone shed some light on what exactly the left hand should dofor pop music arrangements?I mean is it all simple octaves and arpeggios relevent to the chords?I'm new to this arranging thing an even though I have a very good grasp of theory and would like to branch out into pop and jazz. ANY HELP PLEASE!

  • Just copy and copy and after a while youll get it, its not so hard. Just try and fool around and soon it'll be automatic. Without thinking and music you'll be able to sit down and just play. I started classical too and then had a hard time first with Jazz during my teens. Now I do both on various instruments and its enjoyable for whatever style you need. Just copy and listen lots. Hope that helps a bit. --> if you have to, then check books. "Mark Levine" will help probably a lot. Greetings

  • PS: sorry this was supposed to be as an answer for "gerthewanker" question.

  • Unbelieavably arranged. Truly beautiful my friend. These were all very good themes and the way that you interpreted them is excellent. I hope you have an excellent career in music.

  • You are amazing, i loved big part of those tv show, you are great dude !!!

  • sha nah nah nah!!!...Yea!!!..Awesome!!!

  • what is the tune called on 2:28????

  • Beautiful transition into As long as we got each other very well played thank you

  • wow...this is amazing, did you compose the actual arrangement yourself, or is it on sheet music. If you have sheet music for it, it would be a pleasure to play this. Let me know! Great job with this!!1

  • Fantastic!

  • I love this, wow, I have CHICKEN SKIN!!! Wow !!! Can you do also Knots Landing and Dallas !!!

  • fabulous! i love the young & the restless theme.

  • realmente bueno!!

  • Great Job Dude!!! How long have you been playing?

  • your rendition of growing pains gives me chills =). stellar work! =D

  • wow very great job. 5 stars

  • what's the one that comes in around 2.25? It's doing my nut in

  • ....growing pains

  • Damn Dude You Are Incredible The Only Songs I Can Play On Piano Is Part Of The Cheers Theme My December By Linkin Park And A Song Called Life And Death Im Not Sure Who Its By But Its On The TV Show Lost A Lot. Id Do Anything To Be Able To Play That Good Just Once In My Life. I Never Took Lessons Its Just Something I Picked Up I Started Out Playing Drums Self Taught For 7 Years And Then I Learned A Little Guitar Also Self Taught For 4Years. How Long You Been Playing????

  • Maybe you would have more time to learn more songs on the piano if you didn't capitalize every word in your post.

    Peace out...Good Luck.

  • I love the way you play piano. And I usually don't say that about people who use electric pianos. Your transitions are very good. Keep up the good work!

  • i agree wiv u matey i use a 1930's piano but tis not as good as that and i cant play like him hes amazing!!

  • do you have the sheet music for these themes?

  • this is the type of Piano that deserves a reward, no joke.. u need to trademark it or something

  • Where's your Robbins and steth in this one?

  • you are awesome keep up the work i love the videos and yor playing i awesome makes me cry i ove it

  • The music from West Wing is great...although Young and the Restless is amazing too. You have mad skill.  I think your name tells me you were born in 82 like me. This would explain why I love all the music you've chosen...I grew up with it also.

  • damn leet o_0

  • you are perfect!!

  • MACGYVER!

  • very nice! what are you using to record the audio output?

  • Hey, I pretty much just hook up the keyboard to my mac using a firewire audio interface (presonus inspire 1394), and then use garageband to record...

  • i have a roland rs-9, and i tried recording from it by taking the headphone out jack to the line in on my laptop... i recorded in a program but it only shows audio in the left channel. and actually even if i just record from the builtin microphone it still only shows audio from the left channel... i dont know whats going on.

  • Maybe your cord is mono instead of stereo?

  • Apparently, PD arranges the themes himself, which makes it all the more impressive. I've always thought he should have chosen a career in music instead of medicine. As for Cinnamondouche's comments, this is piano music, not arrangements by Timbaland. Your handle says it all.

  • dude, ur monotonic whining is giving us a headache....i give u a challenge.....play these songs better than him...go on I DARE YA!!! and if u cant (which i know) then go back to your little life on the sofa with ur cheeseballs and oversize family

  • i guess you call youself cinnamonDOUCHE for a reason.

  • douche is short for douchebag in his case lol...ive been playing piano for 9 years and am still not as good as him..period...cinnamonDOUCHE is a jealous jerk...

  • you're great, your godlike on the piano... thank you

  • Thank you v much! the sound is wow amazing you have a bloody good Roland lol I don't know most of the shows but it was so relaxing I enjoyed the moment :) Can we make you requests for other songs??

  • love you always

  • You poor bast - you were forced to watch the Y&R? Cruel! You have great hands. I'd feel better about you operating on me after watching this, if I were a patient.

  • Great job!! I always give u 5 stars... Keep posting I love them all. Thanks

  • yay!!!! You posted a new video! Great job btw.

  • Thanks everybody, glad y'all like it!

  • *LOVE*
