c'est beau... mais un peu trop de pédale dans le jeu, ça sonne un peu flou à certaines places (surtout au début) peut-être aurais-tu pu mettre la petite queue au lieu de la grosse? Sinon c'est magnifique! bravo :)
Great job man... for the record I love this song so much. The entire soundtrack to the game is fantastic, You should check them out if you like this song so much. Id recommend Celes song, it has a similar feel to it and may inspire you the same way this one did.
I love this song, i started playing piano just beacouse of this song and when i found out i couldnt read notes i startet lessons at 2000NOK per year! no i got a free piano from a guy i dont know who is! the piano was from 1925 so when im 18 the auction trader said he would buy it for 240.000 so thats my ford mustang, im now 14 and learning the song:)
haha that's funny I also started playing piano because of this song! It was the first song I ever learned, and a damn hard one to begin with, must of been about 8 years ago...
Wow. That is awesome. I don't expect such a nice version after a 10 year break. Heck I lose most of my finger coordination over the course of 3 weeks.
"This song is the main reason I started playing the piano again. After hearing this piece for the first time inspired me to play again after a 10 year break."
Just awesome! Absolutely the same is for me and Those Who Fight.
Just once, I want to see someone actually use the left hand part from the game. You know, the one that's obviously a drum part but not on a drum, from the SNES?
The piano hiatus certainly shows, but it is a great performance. My only complaint would be that the B section is a little overpowered even for what is a 'louder' section by less important notes...could not hear the melody coming through.
I think the tempo is fine, though. The rubato is really what takes it to the next level from the relatively precise timing from the game.
hey mate, same story here, i haven't touched the piano for like 12 years, but after hearing this song i started to practice again just so i could play this. this song really has some special meaning for me.
Lousy perfectionists. Of course you can never meet your high expectations from featuring a song which you can listen to in its original form every day.
jeez give the guy a break. even if you could do better, what reason is there to be a dick? did the description say this? me playing some ff music, please give me an analysis of my imperfections
Reverb and the SUSTAIN (Pedal) are two different things. Reverb has to do with acoustics. I'm a music major and I understand the orchestra and the piano very well.
1:57 isn't completely wrong, he missed one note at 1:57 it goes b flat,c,d,e flat,f,g,a. he missed a. that makes it completely wrong huh? yes, the piano is out of tune, if you can't tell the difference if he's playing wrong notes or if it's out of tune, maybe you shouldn't comment, because your judgement means absolutely nothing. if you're going to comment to criticize at least know what your talking about.
You're right I checked it out too. You got me. Still though I don't think it makes it "completely wrong". A lot people remove notes because of limited hand size. I take my comment back you know what you're talking about.
would you like me to record one...? -_- Just because I don't have a video on youtube proving that I can play a song doesn't mean I can't. Not to mention the fact that it doesn't take someone who can PLAY a song to know what it's supposed to sound like - all you need for that is a pair of ears, bud...
Wonderful playing, but I think you should've changed your pedal timing a bit. Unfortunately I won't be able to post an example of what I mean until thanksgiving-time :(
Wish I could give you 10 stars instead of only 5, it goes straight to my faves!!!
Keep up the good work, you have an amazing "Feeling" while playing the piano, not only the right notes...you put feelings while you play, and that makes it so awesome...
Thanks for this delightful experience for my ears :D
collieollie, I don't know if you will even see this. Practice by breaking it down into sections. Repeat a section until you(essentially) memorize it. Then move onto the next one and add the last one. Repeat until finished. There! You memorized the music, and you can now focus on technique.
I'm just wondering.. what would be a good song to play... with the basic parts for both hands. I'm not sure because I'm teaching myself.. and It's kind of difficult. If you could help me, it would be greatly appreciated. Oh and Btw... You're playing is amazing. I wish I could play like you.... Well at least I'm trying instead of complaining that I want to play so badly. lol Bye ~.* P.S. Keep up the great work. :D
im not one to comment on any video i watch... but this one is so dam awesome. good job man. keep up the fantastic work. This song is just too beautiful for its own good!
I felt the overall mood of the song was lost. The song needs lonliness, depression, persistence.. it needs to be aligned through the desperation of the player's reluctance to keep pounding out the song and it should have an undertone like the person playing it has magical powers but isn't interested in revealing them or drawing attention to himself.
i've been playing that song (well enough in my opinion) for 9 years, and you do it as well as i've ever seen, heard , or played. you have done all enthusiasts of mr uematsu's work justice with this one. try a piece called cape of storms by hyde, i think you'll succeed at it and enjoy it as well.
1:32 - 1:44 HARDEST PART. Left hand is a pain in the ass. had to alternate it :(

1:33, 1:37, and 1:40 you cut off those chords a little too much when you lifted your foot off the pedal.

mannyblack08 3 years ago
dude ... what was "completely" wrong is the section that starts after that
so to be 99.9% accurate, 1:58
HeX4869 3 years ago
or to make it clearer
the start of section C if you have the sheet music.
HeX4869 3 years ago
Yes, I have the sheet music and watched the video again. I'm very famaliar with this song. Please tell me master piano player what's wrong with it?
mannyblack08 3 years ago
look ... why are you acting like i offended someone here ?
listen to the start of section C
do you really think that first chord is ok ?
since i don't have perect pitch, i checked it with my keyboard and i found out that he didn't play the higher Bb in that chord
listen and check again
HeX4869 3 years ago
and removing the highest note from a chord is different from removing the lowest or the middle note.
the melody goes with the highest note in chords
HeX4869 3 years ago
You're right I checked it out too. You got me. Still though I don't think it makes it "completely wrong". A lot people remove notes because of limited hand size. I take my comment back you know what you're talking about.

Don't worry about it
perhaps "Completely wrong" is a bit too much.
