[DOriginalKillua99]

This was the most accurate piano single for Crush in youtube so far... The pianist did a great job.

'it was a rush, what a rush.'

[mellidaniels]

i think i like it this tempo and it's pretty awesome sounding for only learning it a half and hour before :)

[11JAYP11]

like it way better than the song!!

[thenxtidol62]

hey, do you think you could send me the notes that you played it on? ive been trying to learn it on keyboard but i cant seem to find any piano chords, all i ever get is the guitar chords so if you could tell me the notes id appreciate it, thanks

[Gidz15]

[lovexxs2]

:D loved this version!!

do you have it on mp3?

i would really like to have it please (:

[thechosenguy9]

sheeet that was amazinggg

if only there was sheets for it =(

[88TotalKeyz]

I like it better than the actual song, honestly.

Good job!

"Cover" implies one's own interpretation, so in that respect, taking a tempo a little faster than the actual song shouldn't be such a big deal. Once again, kudos to you. Keep up the great work.

[zoeml96]

amazing =D

[LuvMyCareBear44]

I personally love it this tempo. It'd be amazing either way. This and ALTNOY are gorgeous. <3

[foxunit24]

very well played

[SugarCubezRulePart2]

[iPhanny]

[pastbey]

much appreciated if you post the same arrangement yet with slower tempo. it sounds good but too fast when you sing along with it. thanks.

[frozenblueberries17]

this is very well played. Emotions and dynamics and rubato and everything. Some parts were rushed but overall it was very well done.

[Jessi1166]

One of the best jobs on piano I've ever heard! Amazing!!

[triciamariedator]

[love0607dreams10]

[lurvygurl]

Amazing.... i lurv it soooo much!!! you really hav such a talent... do not waste it =)

[Kristin09061988]

This was an amazing job!! Its a different version of the song its sounds like, but still completeley 100% recognizable!! Outstanding!

[jsp4934]

2:40 gave me chills!

Awesome job!!

[kedisbrow]

You're a SUPERB pianist and do an outstanding job here! I don't say that lightly and rarely find great covers.

I'd like to hear you do another version of Crush with a twist that I think would make it unbelievably good!

One thing that makes David Archuleta one in a bazillion is that he doesn't just sing a song, he tells a story vocally. There's a progression, and variation in the emotion that's projected. If you could play to tell a story like he does, it'd be fabulous.

I hope ya try it.

[hestable]

omgsh ur really good.

do u play be ear or music sheet?

[bieusinh92]

thanks!

I played this by ear :)

[monkeybrains8179]
