This Loneliness. Godfather piano scene.

[1818LucY]

Lovely haunting melody played with great skill and feeling! A delight to listen to.

[rdr555]

@1818LucY... Steady On !

[thestone46]

@1818LucY You are correct.... Wrong piano type... Would have been GREAT played on an Upright..

[TheRgs1987]

magnifico! superb!

[rdr555]

@TheRgs1987 Grazie mille!

[ben4nadurata]

Fantabulous!!!

[leschhorne]

bravo!

[serranopugliesi]

Beautiful....this piece brings me nostalgia everytime I listen to it....and makes me wonder...right or wrong, it was the immigrants who built the "New World" we live in, and i´m happy to have italian blood running in my veins!!

[jasonlloyd33]

Very cool

[pieterjantas]

This piano player looks like the sort of guy I REALLY would like to have a drink with. And the drinks would be on me.

[rdr555]

@pieterjantas ...Another "offer I can't refuse" !!

[Threepwoodist]

You're not playing it properly.

[xdiminished5thsx]

@Threepwoodist That's what I was thinking.

[thebeatl3sr0ck]

@Threepwoodist come on man, you know this is one of the most exactly covers going around on youtube :C

[chooonz]

Superb. Very much in the spirit of the original.

[rdr555]

@chooonz .......Thank you kindly !

[chooonz]

@rdr555 I think I'll learn this then play it in any piano-owning pub I go to. Should be good for messing with the heads of the punters. They'll all be thinking 'now where do I know this song from?' then it will dawn on them that this is the music which accompanies gruesome Mafia hits. Get ready for a loud bang........

[rdr555]

@chooonz ...Great ! If you want my piano transcription, it's on eBay.

[crankbv1]

Nice one my friend. A lovely piece beautifully played, albeit at 1-14 somewhat briefly.

[rdr555]

@crankbv1 ... The original Godfather montage lasts only 1-30 and includes 2 dead bodies and lots of spaghetti. Whad'ya want ??

[rdr555]

@rdr555 .........Make that 3 dead bodies.

[Stalinsurfstheweb]

I always remember myself constantly rewinding the video to listen to this particular scene in the film over and over again. Absolutely love it.

[xdiminished5thsx]

@calabris1 carmine did. He went to Juilliard for composing and this is the result of that training.

[rdr555]

@calabris1 ..................This piece is beautifully played by "Carmen" Coppola and his Orchestra on "The Godfather's Wedding Album" LP (rare - but on YouTube). On the sleeve, Coppola is credited as "composer, conductor and producer". "Carmen" is Carmine, who was btw grandfather of Nicolas Cage !

[rdr555]

@calabris1 .......Not known, but possibly the pianist in the movie - Carmine Coppola (director's father). Certainly no lyrics, and no copyright to my knowledge.

[rdr555]

Great.  Glad you liked it.

[qlap10]

Just today i bought your sheet music of this song on eBay! Great video by the way.

[keatonguy09]

I will definitley be buying this.

[Anonymous1226]

in the movie, carmine coppola wears a ring just like that when he plays it

[rdr555]

Yes it's played by Carmine Coppola (Director's father) in the Movie. Check out "Godfather's Family Wedding Album - This Loneliness" on YouTube.

[JRussoBuffaloNY]

I thought the name of the song was "All of my life" by Irving Berlin, also doesn't Coppola's father play this song in the film?

[Anonymous1226]

@JRussoBuffaloNY yes, his name is carmine coppola

[daviddebonomalta]

Can you please send me the sheet music? This is great!!!!! daviddebono@hotmail.com

Thank you so much!!!!

[rdr555]

[chem100]

[victorcolosio]

[frisbeehousepiper]

[ShieldWall76]

Excellent.

[Badguy10472]

Not bad. I would kill for a sheet of this little tune.

[rdr555]

Thank you. A transcription of the music is on eBay. Search "This Loneliness. Godfather piano music. Transcription".

[rdr555]

@Badguy10472.  No contract required!

[BlaqueKnight316]

Thank you so much for a job well done.....

[RAJASISO]

nice job, finally some one posted this song with their version. its so hard to find any sheet music for it and this is the first video I have seen for it,

thanks for sharing

[drcoxcentral]

Thank you you made my day! Its probably my favorite piece of music from the Godfather and its not even on the soundtrack, real shame :(

[rdr555]

Thank you. I completely agree with you, and you made my day too. You need to go to YouTube "The Godfather's Wedding Album - This Loneliness" to hear the lovely orchestral version.

[AnotherSchmoe]

Wow, very awesome! Great job, definitely sounds like the original. This is also the only cover of this I've ever heard, glad to hear someone do it finally. =D
