  • you aren't actually playing it. I noticed that you pressed the E key, when the song was actually sounding the A key. I was at my piano at the moment, and I noticed. [you actually did that alot]

  • i play E and D# with my Pinky and Ring Finger, if you don't know what E and D# is then I'm talking out the opening of the song.

  • Comment removed

  • it looks very gay

  • love:X

  • Please, play it slower there is no feeling in it at all.

  • You need to check out the score (do you have it?) because you always make a mistake in the "E-section" ( @0:30 and so on). And @2:01 , C is a quarter and not repeated as a seixteenth.

    Anyway, playing the piano is not only gymnastic. Try to be more expressive!

  • magnifique

  • SLOW IT DOWN!!!!!!

  • Wow.You are good!

  • sorry..an unattractive piano......

  • Good speed, but you miss too many notes at the fast parts. Just need a little more practice and it will be great.

  • huh?

  • far to fast. And try to do different speeds at different places as it says in the musics And vary between loud and soft and different points in the song, it should tell you in the music what to do.

  • I agree that the song was played a temp too quick.. but watching him play he seemed bored and implied that he played the song too many times before.

  • Yeah. You didn't feel the music and interpret it much. Don't play it for the sake of playing. Play for the sake of music and enjoyment.

  • @kirujan94 Everyone feels music when they play it. Just because he didn't "show" it doesn't mean that he wasn't feeling it.

  • i can play this to this is easy

  • i love it! but i agree just a tad fast ^^ this is what im learning now... how long have you been playing???

  • wat kind of piano is that?

  • A Challen

  • @sharky97 upright piano

  • Too fast.. &You don't interprate enough.

  • none taken.. i guess i use family guy humor too loosely v.v

    VA by the way

  • Wats ur name and were r u from?

  • Marie and im from Cali but i live in Virginia

  • im from cali to but i live in cali lol

  • hah cool what part

    i was down in santa cruz a few months ago

  • i am from la puente its next to west covina

  • TOO FAST!

  • tu jou super bien continu

    comme sa

  • this song makes me purr like a walrus

  • purr like a walrus? wow and i thought i was lame

  • you are =]

  • lol ok i didnt mean to offend u lol so were u from

  • too fast

  • ++++++++

  • Fantastic it is very good sound "Fur Elise" by Beethoven

  • wat kinda piano is that?

  • a Challen

  • absolutely perfect!

  • How did you record this. Ive trying to record myself playing but that sounds very bad. But good job

  • on 1:40 he makes a mistake when he begins with the A:s (in the left hand). He shouldn't have played A,E,A the last time but begun with all the A:s in the left hand.

  • No, in this part the A-E-A should not be played. Go see some sheets before you open your God damn hole.

  • i hate people who convert great songs like this into other musical instruments piano songs are meant to be only for the piano and guitar songs are meant to be for the guitar but apparently some assholes switched it to another instrument and that sucks.

  • Yes, clearly your opinion matters, and it is clearly a universal opinion to every piece in the world.

    Those assholes don't know how hard it is to NOT transcribe a piece of music to another instrument, yet they keep practicing to make it better. When will they realize its impossible?

    In case you were too ignorant to tell, that was sarcasm.

  • a litlle bit toooooooooooooo fast, but your not the only one

  • It's very nice !

    Congratulation !!

  • omg i dont even like classical music but something about this song is just so amazing

    i feel like all piano players use magic

    i play guitar but i cant comprehend piano

    your awesome

  • It's easy =D...

    go on your guitar and play the following combination going up.

    A-E-A-C-E-A-B

    the first six (AEACEA) are A minor. the B starts what will be E major.

    E-E-Ab-E-Ab-B-C

    finally,

    A-E-A-E-E

    this is strategy. the first line starts a set of chords that will start playing an A minor scale. First A minor, the E major (the 5th, B, makes the minor) ending on C, which makes the last chord A minor again. So not only are the chords dark...they work together to make a nice minor scale in chords.

  • thats because piano has many more themes and in order to execute a good sounding song you must have perfect timing that is why i prefer classical.

  • slow down A LOT

  • no thumbs down to this guy...HE'S RIGHT! It was good but fast

  • IT's in 3/8 time signature. so it has to be that speed.. and the notes become 32nd notes so it's extra faster.

  • I understand that there are 32nd notes in the music. It's all the opinion of the player whether they play the song fast or slow. If you break the song down, you realize that it's totally in A minor, and that the notes of the melodic chords stack in 16th (or in 3/8...8th) notes. I, as a player, believe that playing that slowly will have a much stronger musical effect for the listener. C'mon, its an A minor chord spread over 2 octaves...that beautiful...let it flow slow and deeply to the listener!

  • i am learning this now

  • can you post it as a video and make it slow?

  • very nice interpretation!!! BRAVO

  • Nice...Iunno but you can try to slow down a little bit but anyways very well played.

    Im playing this for my nyssma xDD

  • A little fast man, not much emotion either, but good non the less. good job :)

  • brap

  • i been playing for 4 weeks and i can play this

  • where's the video?

  • Only ONE tip :) More Emotion! You play it correctly and nice, but I can't feel the emotions. :) But you got skills, so keep it up :)

  • @ 1:15 didnt you missed some notes? 0.O

    or am i just an idiot that heard it wrong xD

    but anyways nice played

  • He just missed the extra D#EB.

    That was amazing. I wish I could give a 10/5. I'm working on that song now and I've only been playing the piano for 8 months...

  • really? only 8 months? thats really impressive. im also working on this song

  • nice!!!!!!!!

  • nice nice !

    good feeling for the piano you know

  • beautiful

  • are you sure you played that? It was AMAZING!

  • You slowed down in a couple places where you weren't sopposed to but otherwise great job!

  • little fast to my ear but it's all about preference.

  • Very good. Just a helpful hint. Don't task your hand off the keys during the one part. You should lift your wrist slightly off the keys but don't take your whole hand off. If you do that it will make it smoother, but awesome anyway!

  • i only know verse 2/3

  • yeah i think you missed up but still really amazing

  • yeah? prove it!

  • bravo! that was really well done. sure u missed a few notes but who doesn't i no i do when i play this song ^_~

    i absolutely love this song ^_^ job well done

  • Bravissimo, eccellente

  • excellent!!!!!!!!!! :D

  • bravo bravo! played very graceful and elegant like it should be maybe a tad bit fast but it had a lot of "sprit" and most people dont have that.

  • this is amazing, well done. i would only say play a lil slower, i know sometimes it can seem boring while playing, but seriously relax and play smoothly, flow with it. :)

  • this song is very great too

  • You are great!!!!!!!!

  • WAY fast i like slow and you played wrong tempo and stuff

  • your played smoothly but need to work on your scales theyre a lil rough. great job though i just recently finished learning the song myself

  • Hi. Great!!

    How long have you played and how much do you practice????

    I have played for 2 months now, and is practising this melody. Strugling a bit, but I guess its comming along :p =))

  • omg you beasted this.

  • i don't think it's way too fast but yea maybe slow down a teensy bit. good job on the fast parts i cant do that no matter how hard I try.

  • way too fast

  • plz post video response, playing it at correct speed

  • um.. does it seems like he is playing it himself??

    he isnt turing the pages of music sheets, how can it be possible that whole song is printed in just 2 pages??

    i think the song is being played in backgroud ,and he is just pressing buttons ..

    but i am not sure about this, it might be really him playing the song...

    but im just curious..

  • I am playing, the sheets in the background are not for fur elise they were for something else i was learning. If you check my other videos you will see the same sheets

  • He's doing it from memory, I'm learning the song at the moment and the left hand cross-overs etc are all there so if he's learnt to make it look like he was playing it that well ... he could have leart how to play it! lol

    Very well done TJaep it is a tad fast though.

  • i love

  • y i like it like this not too fast

  • oh yeah where do u get the sheet music plz tell me mines kinda weird so it sounds a little different than this

  • this song should be played with emotion, not speed...

  • I love this song but jnsrox is right you should slow down

  • there is no emotion in the piece.U shouuld slow down.And do u know the the difference between pp and f

  • dammit cant reply to comments tt are marked as spam...anyway it was for iggy931

  • man ! u r a pro!

  • pagoy pagoy!....

  • Will you be able to make a tutorial of this music piece? I really love this song!

  • Wow. So you have to play everything perfect to be able to post it on youtube? Don't tell him he shouldn't make a public broadcast. He can put any video he wants on here. How about you post a video of yourself playing this and we'll compare?

  • and you give it about as much emotion as elevator music.

  • I agree, except for the last part.

  • lol same here, not the eleven part, lmao, but the memory part :P

  • haha me too but thats not the question

    he did his job very well

    make it better when you you want and pose your vid

    im shure youll make miskates

    so dont be ugly

    this is a platform where you can show what you can and mistakes are normal

  • am i supposed to faint in awe?

  • am i supposed to faint in awe

  • Hey man you are awesome !

  • twat

  • i agree.

    with ganorth937

  • :)  .

  • I liked it.

  • hey you're really good! i thought the speed was good as well.. it just got too fast in bits.. like the beginning was perfect, then it got too fast for the second and third parts so your fingers slipped :) but well done :)

  • the original fur elise was 3:24 minutes but yours is 02:37. That means u were 2 fast. Try 2 slow down ;)

  • It's not too fast- playing it slowly ruins the flow of the middle bit coz from what I can remember there are a lot of semiquavers in the middle bit and you can't play them slowly!! It sounds really good!!! :)

  • its too fast! count while playing ...

  • Play it a little bit more slowly... so that you don't make so much mistakes. ;-)

  • desent

    bt where u get ur sheet music

  • the reason why you made so much mistakes in the middle is because your rushing.its not supposed to go fast,beetoven used it as night music.And by the way,your hand should always stay on the keys :(

  • Kinda messy in the middle, but pretty good ^^

  • its not a race play it with feeling

  • excellent !

  • very good man

    but you make mistakes un stupid parts!!!

    jjaa anyway very good man

  • that is so cool

  • hmm it's ok to fast it sounds good but it looks bad keep you left hand on the piano at all times if you do that this will look great and sound Great!

  • i totally agree!!!

    it's really annoyin when he does it!!!

  • that's true!

  • hmmm too fast in many parts, messed up because of that... congratulations anyway, its a great piece

  • why is your left hand always on your lap or on the keys? shouldn't they always be on the keys?

  • It is called showman ship, it looks sloppy if your hands are on the keys when they aren't doing anything.

  • still amazes me though..

  • you messed uppers a teeny tiny bit and go a smidgen to fast on that one part

  • very good

  • You have magic fingers! That was beautiful! I just wish i could see your expression (i thnk it's very important)

  • man i have to play this song but i need help

  • You play it good but my version is better :P

  • i like this version better

  • its okay but i didnt really feel much emotion from you. but good job.

  • This is the mother of all fakes.

    I just learned my self this song and how he moves his hands doesn't match the song. So one advise: LEARN IT FOR REAL AND DON'T PRETEND. And if you still keep faking move your hands right.

  • he is playing dude dont be a hater some videos sound is off just a little bit

  • i doubt it..prob cos the audios outa sync or something...like all youtube vids

  • why are people saying its a fake? i can hear the mistakes. when i use to play (i was 13) i was able to play it fast too... it just depends on the dedication the person is willing to put into a piece

  • wow!

  • this is just wrong, too many mistakes, plus some of your digitation is wrong, especially with the left hand anyways.

  • He is not fakeing it... watch between 1:07 and 1:15 you can hear him let the key echo out.

  • either your a fukin pro cause your speed is ridiculously 2 fast for sum1 like u and i know cause i can play it or u use a cd

  • Its way to fast for me this piece

  • Oh man that is a bad fakee!!!

  • aaaaaggghhhhhh

  • He is Not playing at all, what a scam! it is a tape/cd how bloody slack!

  • Of course I am you fool, do you think they record CD/Tapes with mistakes in ?

  • how in the world is he fakin?...he even messed up

  • hes barely playing its on a tape/cd

  • i love is so relxing

  • lower the tempo a bit its a love song slower would of been more passoniate besides that not bad lad

  • 999999999999999999999999999999­999999999999999/5

  • wayyyy too fast, and your transitions weren't clean. I pretty much agree with maxpies. your piano also needs to be tuned. it was very good despite those things, though.

  • nice

  • VERY BEAUTIFUL

    That was soo GOOD!

  • excellent

  • beautiful 5/5

  • i think i fell in love with this song

  • BEAUTIFUL

  • wow 5/1000
