[TopTenCrew]

if its so damn easy, why cant you play it right.

[thebeautifulpieppe]

Good voice... You have to improve on piano

[multimat100]

it´s a very nice song!!!

[cyberdems]

very nice. those chords sound great - good ear!

[RicardoERivera]

Thanks a lot. Very clear show and teach. Goes into my favorites.

[pkidro]

lower the key, your voice can't handle it and open mouth more when singing... but nice voice

[willprich]

A nice simple version for the rest of us. :)

...add to favourites. Thanks

[santajimi]

Thanks for this. I can see what youre playing very clearly so i dont need any sheets. I will start learning this immeadiately cause its one of my favourite songs. Thanks!

[jaimelenoir]

nice plain playing and a wonderful voice too. Thanks a lot

[therover63]

Great job thanx dude

[lawleollc]

As a fellow owner of the rd700sx I was wondering if the ultimate keys expansion board Hammond soundsare good for the organ parts on this song. I have messed around with the effects on the tonewheel patches but that thick leslie effect is elusive. Anyway your take on the piano part is well done solid and true to the way Booker plays it (except perhaps that e minor chord). Nonetheless, really nice work. By the way, if you like Genesis, check out Cactus Floyd's posts they're incredible

[ronh73]

Playing "Firth of fifth" is a real challenge. And the sound Cactus Floyd uses in "Watcher of the skies" sounds very close to the original!

[imbaofdoom]

thx, helped me alot :)

[Nymphetamine2791]

Very nice job, I'm learning how to play the organ part in this song. This is a great job though!

[mcgiver02]

wonderful work

[patrickshark]

check out his other videos, they're great.

[j1969p]

A five star for you. Also added to my favorites.

[ronh73]

Thank you all for the nice reactions. Unfortunately I do not have the time to react to all of them and I try at least to answer if people have a question.

[333BN]

Great camera placement, it helped me to see every note you were playing, and that was very useful. Also was a nice mix, good balance of piano and vocals. Thanks, I enjoyed it much and found it very helpful.

[ronh73]

It's good to read that people take notice of what I am playing.

[jhagen20042000]

to play it is hard , let along lyric`s

good shit ! pass it to the kids !!!

[ninja9578]

Really liked the keyboard playing, I'm learning this song at the time and it's one of my favourites. Get the lyrics down a little better though.

[4forty4]

moving.been watching your vids this afternoon inbetween chores. great stuff,nice set. what you got in store for the future,covers wise? or have you considered maybe a go at composing? keep it up.

[irelandsjohn]

thanks! i wanted to learn how to play this and now i can. you rock. nice vocals too! keep working on it

[colin5765]

well done, nice rendition, simple sounds good.

could do with some depth.

voice nice too

[weekendoff]

nice job mate. I like the simple uncomplicated version of the song, sounds more pure. well done!

[lookatthewholething]

Thanks, I just bought a B-3 and would love to be able to play this song. You helped me out in a huge way. Always learning. Now can you do "Smokin" by Boston or some Santana? That would be way cool!!! Just kidding unless you really want to. Great job. Don't listen to the jerks that replied. You did great!!! They probably can't play Mary had a little lamb or Old McDonald...except maybe on the skin flute.

[ronh73]

A real Hammond B-3 is very cool to play, especially if you play it with the leslie effect! The Roland Ultimate Keys Expansion Board (SRX-07) also has very good Hammonds (and Rhodes of course) but they aren't as good as the real ones of course.

[woodztream0808]

good work man, a classic tune, one of my all time favourites. You didn't ruin it =)

[7pen]

do not give up your day job

[chiumcn]

awesome..

[neonweasle]

Is there any reason you feel like you should have to post shit onto YouTube

[avillazon]

what a fucking hero

[marcelo412]

Great job! :)

[ManiakTheAtakker]

Yes! Rock & roll!

[jude1967]

so you "took paridise, and turned it into a paking lot"-LALALA----I sincerely you did this for the "Gong Show"-Judith

[ronh73]

I'm actually not familiar with the Gong Show so I can not say anything about it.

Yes, Joni Mitchell has made an incredible song called "Big yellow taxi", you can definitely count on that one. Or maybe you're refering to this song "Lies (all thru the 80's)" by Mannfred Mann's Earth Band who's again refering to Joni Mitchell.

[jude1967]

Joni M.

[KurtWinger]

you suck at singing

[vertiis]

and you use the word suck so he wins

[avillazon]

I was feeling kinda sea sick... listening to this garbage.

[stringquartet]

I prefer ronh73's C/E over the e minor. I just realized how similar this song is to John Lennon's 'Imagine'.

[HARMONYTREE]

Your voice has an excellent range especially

reflected in this song. You are right on key.

[avillazon]

this is shit

[willyeverpay]

andrew villazon eats shit

[M55ikael]

Your bassline is way too static.

[uponmysoul]

Probably not played worse than others (though one chord sounds strange), sang quite well, but the sound sucks!

[feedbackrichie]

This is one talented guy. Tonight im listening to all his music. Respect.

[fiutare]

One chord is wrong (first time at "seasick" and in all other verses at this place) - you play a C-Major (with E in bass) but it is an e-minor. Other than that: Great and pure version, very clear and good vocal. Respect!

[MeSoSollyWan]

That was great. There's a lot od versions of this song; I really like the Sammy Hagar version, But you're very, very talented.

[TomGreenUK]

Good effort!

[firewood777]

you sing wery good, sound like the orginal all pits right

- wow- i bye you a hammond ****

[abigailjazz]

can you do broken barricades????

[ronh73]

No, I don't know this song. I only know "A salty dog", "Conquistador", "Homburg", "Grand hotel" and "No more fear of flying". Some of these songs I know the chords but I do not know the lyrics heart. I will look for the song you have mentioned.

[abigailjazz]

nice job pal

[gldmj55]

Cool. Right now I'm learning this on piano as well. Good version!

[Warrenkeith1]

Dude...that was really nice..I'm a drummer and I know music....GREAT JOB! Warren

[ronh73]

I'm an ELP fan too!

[fairyfellermaster]

man that was awesome. even without string arrangements or organ it still sounds fantastic. not bad on the vocal treatment either. it compliments the arrangement.

[ronh73]

Thanks for your compliment. I hope I can place more videos in the future but I still have to find a better place to make video recordings. I can not make too much noise in my own home.

[Utubestir]

thanks!
