[1Schnick2Schnacks]

I really like this cover and I want to play it. do you have the sheet music for this?

[sisisilopez]

Hermoso

[immortalx50]

after watching tmv's piano covers I realised that they are heavily influenced by latin-american music

[ahighnoonduo]

I laughed.

Thank you.

[immortalx50]

really? why?

[johnorey]

seriously?

[mo73804]

Thanks for covers on some of my fav bands. Tool and The Mars Volta!

[swifty09]

Is that you, Moatilliatta?

[palmerpoop]

Why yes, it is! Hehe. :-)

[Mhztransmission]

This is fantastic, a really nice version :)

And you play it so nicely.

[sirmichaeloftherocks]

wow! good work!

[StoneColdSergio]

5 fucking stars.

[thumphrey05]

sorry for the short shorts everyone

[godhatesugly]

@thumphrey05 you're forgiven.

[merrymadi]

That was brilliant! I loved the 'This is the altar, the one where you left me dying, on your knees, how you laughed..' part and the build-up after. Awesome work mate!

[thumphrey05]

yah thats the best part of the song :D

[drummerjs]

pretty fucking awesome man. i would venture to say that this is just as good as, if not better than the original

[DEEPGNOSTIC]

The beggining sounds like the intro to the Silent Hilll theme song

[mjxtampon]

i love you

[humanfiction]

I must have the sheet music to this. Please, someone, tell me how to get music for this....

[maloySAKURA]

its stupid!!!but i`m crying....

[dennyiod]

Wow this is beautiful<3 i really like it for some odd reason!! Good job<3:)

[ChrisGendoAlt]

There's something oddly haunting and beautiful about this, something the original song didn't have. I really love this alot.

[buchayze]

your version removes all the dissonnance from the original one,  and keeps only the beauty of the melody. awesome work !

[yoitsquintero23]

word bro this is so sick dude this is my favorite song other than eriatarka. nice job man you should do a cover of viscera eyes.

[akatsukiAlcamist]

Will you marry me?

[asdffdsa9]

@akatsukiAlcamist Excuse me, but I don't think Thumphrey should fret with the Akatsuki...

They're trying to take over the world, and we know they will fall once Naruto makes it to thunder island with that stupid octopus.

Stupid fillers!

[ooNATIVEoo]

@akatsukiAlcamist *Alchemist

[PompousLummox]

Never thought I'd see someone play this on piano. You're amazing thumphrey

[dbarkhau]

well what can i say ... as im addicted to the mars volta its up to you to live with the fact im now addicted to your interpretations .. the only things left is: maybe you should get a metronome .. both thumbs up!

[thebossierkid0808]

He sounds pretty on point to me.

[ElBandido321]

[Speedhorn85]

The best cover ever on you tube.

[MurderTrainAComin]

I'd have to say his cover of Eriatarka is the best on Youtube. But its still by him. So lets say ALL of his covers are the best covers on youtube. :D

[cutsoprecise]

That was beautiful.

[hayleekye]

...beauty

[Miscarry]

Best TMV Piano cover EVER

[Daaanvh]

[Suspect1330]

[leonlink]

[darxkai]

I´m really jealous of your keyboard and your skills.^^

[ForIAmARainDogToo]

You're a genius.

[fitzstal]

Great rendition! I think Omar and Cedric would dig this.

[kokiri987]

[strongmad86]

[mflufkin]

[thumphrey05]

2012

[mflufkin]

[adawg37]

[freakcoda]

Man... f*ck! You have an awesome expression.

TMV would cry hearing this.

[Purpledandylion]

Amazing!

[youraveragecrackhead]

oh my fucking god mannnnnnnnn

[KyleCorcoran]

I agree with Akasha, voy a llorar.

You make every song such a great interpretation on the piano.

[graphitemonkey21]

that thing in the begging is crazy

[Akashatattva]

quiero llorar

aww

es hermoso

[thumphrey05]

tu eres hermosa

[graphitemonkey21]

the beggining is ingenious

[sarahmillender]

amazing,

salute your shorts though, and your semi torn shirt.

you must be a really cool person.

[thumphrey05]

im pretty cool like 6 or 7/10

[Zaetix]

you skipped the best part! you should get like some sort of note-reverser and play the ending, that part is insaneeeeeeeee

[ToastedOvenBread]

nice legs

[thumphrey05]

nice toastedoven ass bread HA

[ToastedOvenBread]

buns!

[HelloHelicopter]

you rock my friend

you seriously seriously rock

[drooganazi]

WHY YOU DON'T TRY WHIT VERMICIDE?

[manguythumb]

Man, I love all your covers. You give all their songs such a peacefull pretty twist.

[bebis10000]

DO you have any sheets?

[thumphrey05]

nope, sorry

[noonersized]

gwannn

i'll buy u some pants if u do

no more shorts plz

[thumphrey05]

fuck you dont speak to me or my short shorts ever again

[noonersized]

haha

dud

[then00best]

rofl..

[sighuponsigh]

Ha'! Awesome!

[glensonville]

Hearing this with the clarity of just one instrument really makes me realise just how genius the original songwriting is. De-loused is still their best album by far.

[melodiavibradora]

Amo ese tema.

[thumphrey05]

yo te amo!

[melodiavibradora]

Ops :$

[ModulationCracks]

what kind of equipment (piano) you use??

[thumphrey05]

its a yamaha clavinova electric pino

[undiente]

Wow, pretty nice!

[Dillpj66083]

great job and nice taste in music as always

[pinksyllibus]

This is my favourite song by them.. thanks for doing this :)

[Rykemasters]

Just as awesome as every other cover you've made.

Out of curiosity, how long does it take for you to learn something like that from ear? I've always sucked at the piano and I'm not much better at the guitar, so putting this together by ear and remembering how to play it is pretty awesome to me.

[thumphrey05]

thanks. its different for every song, i normally just a couple hours. it gets a lot easier after awhile

[DerekJMcKnight]

Seriously you have to put together a tribute album.....do it and do it now! it would be amazing! ty ahead of time

[KamratMattis]

put all these together to an tribute album!

[Miiigueeeeel]

that would be nice. and i would buy.MANY OTHER WOULD.

[Slipkyes]

man you are truly an excellent artist, love your mars volta and tool covers, my eternal respect to you, keep up the good work!

[wronghanded86]

you sir are truly a badass

[cchdddy]

cool

[zockerwolle]

your TMV covers are truly the best i've ever seen on youtube. thanks a lot for uploading them.

[BulletProofLincoln]

Damn, TMV sounds good on the piano.. GREAT JOB!!!

[MPianist]

Holy shit.
