How to Play Roses by Outkast on the Piano

[68WAllDay]

CAROLINE!

[angrycrocodilepat]

Seriously great video, i have been working on it for a few days now. Thanks

[MrCallumtyndall2]

Great video man keep up the great work :)

[senojnomis]

stank you, stank you smelly much!

[Getouttadagarden]

really nice job bro, you got skills. but I was just listening to the real verson and it sounds like from seconds 0:10 to like 0:18 they kind of "slide" or "bend" the notes a little. Like they play two keys simultaneously and then let go of one of the keys right away.. if that makes sense. its hard to tell, you should check it out tho and tell me what you think

[angelinadoll18]

at 0:02 he doesnt teach us that, he teaches us notes A, D the go down G E,,and yu can tell he adds to it. smh. -__-

[angelinadoll18]

i dnt sukk at piano, but i want it to be slower lol 

[westbrook7221]

This was si helpful. I covered this and i think it sounds pretty good. great job. Check out my covers guys!!!

[ilovepjysomuch]

@ben10rider100 uh... false. that was pretty ignorant.

[bigapewhat]

why do you begin the intro with different notes than you are teaching with...

[GlamourGlitz224]

hahah i screemed out caroline!

[dinoodlez3]

I learnt how to play this song from this video. Then iv almost totally forgotten it since its been almost 4 years. Now im gotta learn it again lol

[Killabeeeeez]

[canalcahill]

[firebombs98]

kinda hard for me considering that you have to do it fast

[atvedt]

Awesome video! I just started playing piano about a week ago, and thought I'd start out something a little fun and challenging. This took me a while, but is totally worth it. Thanks a bunch!

[Keeblerkalen]

not an accurate cover, better check up on the music...

[charlyblues]

@Keeblerkalen

true, there is a part missing.

im not ungratefull though, but im trying to figure out the missing part..

[rittgers94]

doesn't sound nearly as good without the grace notes.

[Omgiitzjess]

this song on piano sounds amazing, might try and learn this !

[mitchyad]

Hi guys,

I wanted to let you know of a cool new piano learning device in Gizmag

Google “gizmag pianomaestro”

[MariahKayyMassacre]

Im loving this ! :D i've been practicing and im wayyyyy better than i was before. Thanks for posting ! ^___^

[brianbrutality]

these videos have so many views cos we have to watch them about 300 times each to learn the damn song. this shit ain't easy with no classical piano background. also, CAROLINEEEEE

[DiscoYak]

i must say ur lesson wasn't 100% right but it was very helpful nontheless

[TagTeamMusic1]

[abe1sapien]

[bulldog40216]

[beCkyhp7]

Thank you SO much :)

[JQ3000]

What you play at the beginning of how it will sound is not the same as what you are teaching...

Why?

[SupaSaiyajinNaruto]

@JQ3000 ur an idiot. its obviously slowed down to teach you.

[JQ3000]

@SupaSaiyajinNaruto What did I say? I don't remember commenting

[JQ3000]

@SupaSaiyajinNaruto No shit fucktard. Mate, check when he does the intro at the beginning and plays the Bflat. Is he showing you that in the tutorial?

It's a good tutorial anyway, just didn't seem congruent.

[FoziaAbdi]

@JQ3000 yeah he changed a bit

[Blablabla2themax]

this tutorial was so bomb! it helped alot!! thankzz!! :DDd

[bboywildthang]

best tutorial ive seen

[kiwilovr]

i have a request....can you do a tutorial for a song called falling slowly. its from the independent film once. its a beautiful song.

[TJsing11]

ill do one i know the song

[0218p]

this is so much fun! i doubt i'll ever sleep again.

[jenimaemae]

ugh, he's so good! bleh, i'm tryna' learn this right now, but i feel like i keep wanting to give up! rofl, not a good quality to have. I for'real need to gain some patience. thank you for the tutorial, ryan! (if that's your name! wah!) ♥

[zafuso]

took me about 40 mins to learn it, thanks for that

[TheeDefinition]

hey man, u did good,last year when i was 13 it took me maybe 2 hours to get most of it down, now I'm 14 and I play it almost exactly like u, this was the first song I learned on the piano, haha ThanX, it sounds good either way,

[animator96]

You have to listen to what you play!

(My grammar equals thumb + asshole)

At 1:07, instead of A and D, you'll have to go for a A and E!

And you have to HOLD E, and continue to Flat A, A (normal A) G (still hold E), and jump to E, just as you did (do not hold the RIGHT E while pressing the LEFT E haha, confusing I know)

1:41 - instead of jumping to B you'll have to go to (A Flat , B really fast)

AAAH I can't explain, but you suck, no offence

[lovexsome1]

Ýou kind a failed it was good but u should show how to play it with 1 hand first! the with the seccond hand then both hands!!! easiest way to learn some 1 or they would get confused think about what i just said !!! and yeah 5 stars u where good ^^

[Numba1CassieFan]

thanks ryan ;) xx

[tharwpoop]

you kinda left out the jazzy parts

[smileybones38]

love it

[kawasaki2245]

dude yu killed it

[Morlonte]

and then? id like to know how to play the whole song, like improv or somethin...

[smileybones38]

there isnt really anything else smart one

[snapshotblur]

Do you have sheet music for this? Anyone?

[Kaaiou]

Goot it !

just not playing as fast as you but ..

Thanks !

[mikichan4022]

Thank you soooo much!!!!!!!!!!!!! now im getting better and better cause of you

[JeniusMusic]

i agree but it was a good tutorial. cant just say the whole things bad

[jes1]

'preciate it. <3

[Moodybox1]

Your'e playing it wrong... idiot

[GandalfderZwerg]

thanks a lot can play it now

pretty good explanation learned it in about 40 mins

[waldeaglett]

Thank you! i get lost right when you say "this series of notes" though =[ but for not having touched my piano in 10 years this really helped =]

[cjalday]

thank you thank you thank you!

[TheeDefinition]

Thank U!!!!!!!!!, This is what I've been wanting how to play ever since it came out,ThanX! oh how do u play so fast?

[lilblackboi93]

you missed two notes on the downscale... but overall it was a good vid

[MistahMofro]

Between 5:30-5:32 needs alittle more explanation because 7:32-7:34 doesn't look or sound like it at all. But I may be wrong, i think the rest of the tutorial is pretty on point .Got this song down in about 6-7days fluently. Thats the only part i got a little issue with.

Nice job though and thanks.

[dstr01]

you are very good, thank you! you also made the zanarkand tutorial right? i learned it and its awesome!

[layziebones012]

maybe you should slow down when your going thru it and name all the keys.

[belladorothy123]

yehh this is a good tutorial, you just need to name all the keys and it would make it much easier. thanks

[JustSmilinn]

:]]]]]

[scooterinnc84]

Dude, I got that same keyboard. DGX 505 by Yamaha. It's fun to play around on. How do you set it to where you can play with two instruments? I use the split setting, but I can only get one other instrument, which is the pre set one. For instance, how would I get a split between a harmonica and guitar?

[aal8374]

dude your good, only thing i can say is just keep naming the notes and everyone will get it much easier. keep it up its great

[xzoiieex]

DUDE U ROCK!!! U HELPED ME SO MUCH!

[MikeMaffa]

man that is awesome, too hard for me though :(

[JakobSpooner]

CAROLINE.. CAROLINE,

[incadanman18]

@JakobSpooner SAME

[CFletch24]

CAROLINE!

[Pumban14]

can any one pls tell me what note he is playing at 0:02 ??!!

[NarutoMIxer345]

Left Hand:: E+G+B Right Hand: D,E,G G,E ,A,D

[Pumban14]

Ty but i solve the problem and finded out :

It´s not what he is playing at 00.02

THE real way (witch he is playing at 00:02)

is (right hand) D,E,G , G,E, #A, + (A and D at same time)

right after that he plays G and E

[Msagr]

well thats completely wrong xD

[haircut74]

yeah for some reason he doesn't include the grace note in the tutorial, maybe he thinks its too hard to teach

[Gregory123455]

so we just continually play this for the song, or this all of the piano on that song?

[FutureSinger14]

:D i have to keep pausing it.

I'm writing all this down.. Or i'll get lost :P

thanks, you are a HUGEEE help :)

[DamnEmoKids]

You should really name the note through the whole thing lol I got lost when you stoped.

[biterface03]

now i know u like to thaNK yo shit dont stank.. but lean a lil bit closer see that roses really smell like Boo Boo oOOO,.

LOL

[KoolVidzz]

i dont know why people gave you a thumbs down for your comment....thats how the song goes!

[Pumban14]

Love this "piano for dummies " guide

[Thiren111]

I think it is great too, so easy for ppl like me who don't actuelly play:P

[mattysen]

Took me two hours to get this nailed...I should really learn to read sheet music...

[8MRD8]

same its taking so long cuz i have to run to my piano and run back to the computer

[mattysen]

Yeah I get that too lol

[Nebrida23]

buy a cheapo laptop to set near your piano so you can just rewind and fast forward the video. idk if youre that extreme about learning but yeah :)

[tasieone111]

i have that convenience.. Ryan i thank you greatly for your tutes. they are amazing!!!!!! For sight readers like myself this kind of piano is so thrilling and amazing cos despite my 12 years playing i dont really memorize or attempt to play music by ear. Thank you for leading the way!

[Mon5terMash]

what i do for these is kinda draw a piano and the number the white keys (black i would just put the white number before fallowed by .5) then just tab it out with the corrisponding numbers on the keys. it works really great if you understand how ive explained this.

[j0nathan916]

try the notes down thats what i do

[Yourmotwashum]

just bought a keyboard today, a crappy one, when i master reading sheets, i'll buy the Korg one! ROFL...

nah man, just regret, why didnt i buy a guitar???

ROFL

[Fo0LzGold]

trust me it's worth it. 75% of the piano songs i know, ive learned from tutorials just like this one and i can play them just as well as someone who reads it off a sheet

[TiTToBeatz]

@mattysen haha im way too lazy for it

[WonderfullBabe]

hi you play so good

do you wanna make a tutorial from the song "Don't matter" from Akon please :P

I like it, but i can play it :P

so maybe you can help!

[packermanfavre]

this is great, i have lots of respect for you man!

How do you learn the songs in the first place?

[TokyoRose1602]

ryan I pretty mucho learnt how to play piano on youtube and i must say that you're tutorials are the absolute best! Keep up the good work and if you can keep uploading new songs! hope you do =)
