Dream Theater - Octavarium (piano version) - part 1

[AdamC3046]

I think I speak for pretty much every Dream Theater fan. PLEASE DO A TUTORIAL!!!

[MidnightSundowns]

This was brilliant. You sir, I don't care what anyone says, are awesome. I'd love to just shake your hand. DT for life, and this was beautiful.

[YouLikeDoNow]

If I were him. I'd play this non-stop.

[Deggen6]

You, Sir, are a BOSS.

[martyfriedman86]

such a great interpretation of this awesome tune. you've really got talent man. really inspiring!

[luv4allk]

Yeah, I love your attitude. You are really good. Technic isn't everything, and I love the interpretation and the feel of it all.

[adrianscorpions]

:O AMAZING!

[deathbypigx3h]

deserves more views, like ten times as many

[radicalsintra]

Unfuckingreal dude..wow

[PoWlication]

HOW can people dislike THIS?

[raxiel1231]

@PoWlication They're insecure. :)

[tjd07x]

You are the reason I'm asking for a keyboard for Chirstmas this year. Fucking inspiration.

[katosjoes]

Wow, that is wonderful playing!

The piano also sounds amazing!

[JJABEB]

What's the song at the start?

[adrianscorpions]

@JJABEB It's al the same song (Octavarium)

[PacoGekoSticko]

[stefistefistef]

@PacoGekoSticko

[pantscrapper12]

That piano is gorgeous... The low notes just sing out so wonderfully.

[scorpio2792]

Amazing! *___________*

[speedacidrain]

[no1likesmaynnaise]

Holy Crap.

[LesVideosDeJet]

You're just truly fuckin AWESOME.

[Kanon3CO]

You make me cry T_T

[ivaneduardo747]

4:50 - The awesomeness of Medicate begins. <---That includes the awesome bass solo.

[jonespec]

best cover i ever see im my life, gz man u deserve!!! 8-D

[oriondrums2]

the piano version reminds me of ben folds

[InuJF]

sweet job dude!

[rladusrb]

It's one of the best Octavarium cover I have ever seen. Its just wonderful wonderful wonderful!!! Keep uploading your cover videos, I hope^^

[OceanWide18]

Hi man, just wanted you to know I used this track on my vid "Girl Interrupted - Winona Ryder & Angelina Jolie scenes": /watch?v=DAl8PwXm5GI

you have been added to the credits at the end ;)

[daniel270455]

Great cover. Great video (perfect sound). Congrats!

[DecideYa]

Now you can die.

[dgd138]

This video has the highest likes/dislikes ratio of any video i've seen in a long, LONG time. So for that, well done!

[SamHerrington14]

Who in gods name would dislike this kind of video? It's perfection.. fucking arseholes.

[KyleJPie10]

Chills through my entire body... fantastic job!

[ConKerDT]

NICE NICE GJ DUDE

[rudicci]

As a DT fan and as a Musician.... i bow in front of you :)

[Nintenke]

AMAZING! I'm crying now :') !

[panamanian911]

"I'm not as good as Jordan (yet)."

That's the right attitude man! Hahaha

I hate it when people act like it's impossible to be as good (or better) than him. Practice, practice, practice.

[oOoNinjaMushroomoOo]

Obviously deserves more views. Probably one of the BEST videos I have seen this past week. I only wish my speakers could go louder. Thanks for the wonderful video. Mabuhay ka.

[jplanejazz]

Screw the mistakes man! This is amazing!

[dragonsagoth666]

4 people are idiots.

I made a 999th like here. Props to you, dude. That's a sweet sounding piano indeed - however Bösendorfers remain the best ones to my ears. Along with Shigeru Kawai. :)

Continue doing stuff like this, you have awesome chops, and you play with a lot more feeling than Rudess does!

[Bones12x2]

How could anyone dislike this?

You don't even have to like DT to think this is awesome!

[jmlc777]

If JR ever leaves DT, you are making his search for replacement very easy

[Ki11J0y725]

dude if i had half of your talent id fuckin go nuts

[MRibulao]

I WONDER IF RUDDESS HEARD THIS....

[BrolySuperSaiyen]

@MRibulao Well, I think he has. He is the most active musician I know on YouTube.

[dream431ca]

Holy Jesus! Goosebumps! Do you have a piano version of The Count of Tuscany? :D

[limaribudollar]

omg... you should make mp3s for this one

[frederikkoeppe]

where do i get the notes for that?

[sauceboy01]

You are a freaking genuis! Gave me goosebumps! Great job!

[daradidam]

make more dream theater covers!

[mirez21]

kua ja to pocuvam v praci stale dokola uz asi 3. den :)) well played!

[mirez21]

Jordan with hair :)

[orangatine]

@drummerforreal1 You obviously don't actually have any concept on music. when someone enjoys something to a large amount WHY WOULD'NT you want to play it? you're a moron. i do admit you have a point, writing ones own music is something to strive for. but calling DT ****?? DT has the best written songs ive ever heard these days! give people credit who deserve it.

[majorstrings]

Really a Gr8 work..................Awesome

[IReallyAmIronMan]

You are my hero

[wespalladini]

If only Octavarium, and in the Presence of Enemies were made into an opera....

[lcarlosrosado]

Freaking genius man... kudos!

[claudiodxe]

well done mate

[CareyPortnoyBeauford]

dude this was amazing. end of story. Rudess would be proud.

[UnWantedProduction]

<3

[asiaticobr]

[bmilreu]

[baxale95]

[eddiebarrera84]

[davihss]

AMAZING!!! I'm crying now!!!

[casmpro2011]

1:45 misteriosamente en mi mente comenze a oir la voz de laBrie !!!!!!

[guitarheromaniaco5]

Ok who are the assholes to click he "dislike Buttons'?!?!?

[davihss]

Wooow, I cried, very beautiful your arrangement, has not changed from the original, but managed to put all the arrangements of the whole band on the piano!

[Pedriniist]

Man don't you have the socres of your arrangement?

[Pedriniist]

Man dont you have the scores of your arrangement?

[leandrobern]

take out a little foot pedal, explore more octaves and take more care in fast passages. Congratulations.

[doodleboy5]

I love this song and i love this version, thank you!

I love it. My favorite part is at the 8:00 where you pull a Rudess and go crazy fast, nicely done!

[ukjoci]

You are fuckin' amazing!!! Congratulations!

[jaiMETAL14]

dude, u r awesome!!!!!!!

[JakeTF2]

holy smokes, how many years you been playing my man?

[constantinosbassman]

Great, AMAZING,. YA WHAT MISTAKES, I am using this for My Vocal Practice, ITS PERFECT DUDE GREAT JOB. you and I should do a colab !!!!!

[MetalQueen992]

[Wallimann]

Excellent job!!!!!

[lorddarkangel911]

Very cool dude.... u rock.... \m/

[uby54ty06]

u have very little mistakes in your tempo but anyway you rock as well

[uby54ty06]

@drummerforreal1 Y do not ya kill yourselph right now?

[ObliquePyramid]

this is fucking outstanding mate. sorry for the language but it needed to be said.

[JohnPetrucci251]

God that piano sounds fucking amazing

[Zachoreeno]

Amazing man! That bass is menacing sounding >:D

[shadfer]

"Sorry for mistakes, I'm not as good as Jordan Rudess"

I call shenanigans.

[CristianTejadaU]

the next jordan rudess??

[megarocko94]

Wow. Great job! beautifully played and fun to watch/listen

[wa5p34]

Wonderful arrangement! You only have 10 fingers, yet you catch all the important notes, chords, rhythms, and (most impressively) accents. I was most impressed by your impression of the acoustic guitar at 0:36. Well done!

[IMaiden89]

only had time to hear 2 mins in but dude your insane

[AnarchalPatriarch]

I AM NOT DISAPPOINT

[TheMorrocanrose]

This is the coolest thing ever!!

[shahrir77]

omg..great job!!..like it so much!!

[yash340tier430]

please could i get a sheet music of this song i also want to learn this

[SoloTheThief]

it takes a lot of work to make octavarium piano varsion.those mistakes that yo mean is just normals throught of this you made a perfect work!!!

[markototev]

Well, I don't like 95% of the original song (and album), this is a lot better so congrats! :D

[ronachi]

Great Job man, you rock !!!

[Kaspar502]

really honorable!

[Bakazuraz]

As much as I love Octavarium I must admit that I don't really care for part 2 (Medicate/Awakenings) of the song. That being said, I think I enjoyed the piano cover of that part better than the original. I probably just don't like the lyrics/singing for that section, sounds too pop-y for my tastes.

Anyways, AMAZING job all around.

[ozzymetal]

FUCKYEAH MAN!!!

[MCAmaZ]

Sorry for mistakes.... WHAT MISTAKES?? You rock! :)

[fuckdig1000]

simply....awesome. thank you.

[jmlc777]

If JR ever quits DT like MP did, the search for replacement might be easier than I thought! Thnx for the vid!



[thedruglord]

Just like the original octavarium, this is totally epic

[thedruglord]

What mistakes? I only hear perfection

[flylfcl]

great job buddy. I just wonder how it sounds like when you don't know the original song...

[brainsupremacy]

Very good job!

[IlCadutoUn]

just fan jizzed all over my keyboard...your amazing kid

[benjitarius]

Lame, i came onto youtube to look up something specific, but it suggested i watched this and now i've forgotten what i wanted to look up... great cover! sort of captivated me.

[nonavarium]

[papamama006]

[Gugered]

666 likes, holy shit

[hubertous]

@Gugered And only 2 dislikes! Incredible! He's from Poland so I'll write something to him in Polish;)

Nie mam pojęcia jakim cudem opracowałeś i nauczyłeś się na pamięć całego octavarium, ale jestem pod wielkim wrażeniem! Wykonanie także nie zostawia wiele do życzenia, tak więc ćwicz dalej i zaimponuj przed większą publicznością! Gratulacje!

[hubertous]

fuck, I didn't saw the profile. He's from The Czech Republic! But I bet he'll understand a little bit what I wrote;)

[Treeworks211]

@drummerforreal1 Go fuck yourself, you cock sucker. You'd dare call Dream Theater "shit?" How about you go back, listen to your fucking Bullet For My Valentine, or White Chapel or Shitknot before you call Dream Theater "shit."

[yannicsuxalotDK]

whitechapel :)

[constantinosbassman]

@Treeworks211 You tell em ,,... WHAT AN IDIOT

[JamieandhisIbanez]

@Treeworks211 to be fair, bfmv are quite good. but i agree dream theatre fucking own.

[cliffordodelljones2]

@Treeworks211 Well put.

[McThomas369]

@Treeworks211 Maybe at a time he listening Piano Concerto Op. 18 No. 2, I.Moderato. So he said "shit".

[epicfailurewolfe]

it's funny he's got a Bohemia Piano because in the song there a piano part just like Bohemian raphsody (yes it was on purpose)

[Teias10]

MAESTROOOOOO!!!!

[shadfer]

I need the sheet music for "Full Circle"...

I need to learn to play piano again. Darn you, 11 year old self. Why did you quit?

[killionair2800]

Amazing job man!! 

[sayachit]

my god! you ARE GOD!

[IllustriousInfidel]

That was amazing! Wish you lived around me, my band could really use a good keyboard player, keep it up, you're like a piano god lol. you should start writing your own stuff. People (including me) would pay to hear it

[gustak4]

amazing

[asch21289]

this is amazing!! sounds great! cant imagine how much time it must have taken to get it all down!

[avrillavigne1981]

you're just amazing!

[stevie4421]

incredible!!!

[Retainer456]

Do you still have the sheet music to this or did you learn by ear.

[HiddenSkiesProg]

spettacolare...

[shorrack]

Give yourself some credit, that was awesome!

[Ripp3RX]

@logos2600

A7X is a great band...i love DT and avenged both and trust me when im saying - A7X is not a trashy band at all.

[David666Mezei]

[PecarosDGP]

@David666Mezei pu mamu ti xD pozz Mezo

[asnguitarfrk93]

@David666Mezei

Oh, sorry, did you expect it to be perfect?

[TheDougDude]

@David666Mezei Why won't you do it better?

[David666Mezei]

@TheDougDude No ,I hate the piano , this master player mentioned in his description of his video that he has mistakes , so I asked WHAT MISTAKES ?

[TheDougDude]

@David666Mezei Ok, sorry. I thought you noticed mistakes in the song and said it like he'd made alot of them. I agree that this cover is so close to perfect as it could be. I can only dream about playing this good. And again, sorry for the misunderstanding. :)

[janakajp1]

[Erotomaniax]

You're really good! This is a brilliant rendition!!

Dude I would've never noticed any mistakes if you hadn't pointed out in your description "Sorry for mistakes" :-P Even then, even though your scalar runs were a bit sloppy in the solo, you kept your time and tempo intact, good job :-)

Really, well done dude!

How long have you been playing for?

[Angelikalovesmusic]

The world just stopped spinning for a while. You're amazing!
