  • haha your hand technique is absolutely horrid but your musicality is so amazing, im guessing you do it this way because your at the most comfort. Like they say, whatever works :D

  • totally amazing :)

  • @HK2UKBABY

    You are entitled to your opinion, but why get upset? For instance, I like this one more then the original, but I don't get upset by others who play the original. People take songs and make them their own all the time. Anyways, awesome awesome awesome song...

  • awesome!!!!! :)

  • this is exactly what i've been looking for... good job. Actually Magnificent is the word to describe it !!!

  • IS THIS FAKE????

    

  • @dominic23100 Why should it be fake?...

  • haha oh man, hearing this makes me want to learn to play the piano so badly, but It's so expensive :D

  • oh my gosh this is beautiful! i wish it was recorded in more high quality,, i can hear the plastic keys lol either way fantastic

  • WOW!!! this is amazing... is this song available for download or purchase?

  • wow ur left hand is just like *WIZZZZ WIZZZZZZZZZZZZZ* :D ITS TOTALLY AMAZING <333

  • Wow.. it reminds me the Corpse Bride movie..

    PRETTY AMAZING !!

    i love piano played musics xDD

  • You are good, but the add on bits I don't like :'/ being a great fan of the original, I don't like this one :'/ I know it's by ear, but I learnt most by ear, but then on YouTube, so I feel kinds upset almost that this isn't the song that I know :(

  • Lol man don't let people hate on you, my cousin plays piano as well and is soon going to be posting a corpse bride video of him playing by ear as well!! look him up. He doesn't have much up right now, but he will have some up soon. Thomas11611

  • Your really good at piano

  • is this real???

    i dont thing soooo

    this is to amazingggggg

  • Why did you have to add "played by ear" in the title? I mean,if it was because you were apologising for any wrong notes,that's one thing,but it's kind of arogant when people say that sometimes.No offense..it's just a little thing that bothers some people like me.I play by ear ,I read music pretty well,and I also learn by just watching people play but I never say that I do in my videos because it really shouldn't matter if you are a good musician (which you are.) Your playing speaks for itself.

  • Sometime around in 2007 when I first heard this video, I was a squealing like a teenager. I'm a little older now, but I can't get over your version of the track. My iPod has this piece and I listen to it almost daily. I can't stop, I can't stop. I just love this version.

    I'm not very rich but I would pay a decent sum if you put up a 'Pro-version' on a grand piano as a token for loyalty! :)

  • cool ... but it's not the real piano duet :(

  • i play by ear too :) glad im not alone. i only hope i can be as good as you though!

  • ::Bows down::

  • Sow coool and so crazy that you can play the part when its meant for two persons!!

  • wowwwww awesome

    love your version :X

  • what the fuck..................... :O

  • I Have One Word.... AMAZING!! WOW... I Thought The Original Was Better then The People Playing It, U Just Changed My Mind THAT WAS WONDERFUL!!!!!!!

  • I could watch this all day :)

  • I am just Amazed, Great song, great film! And you are just fantastic. :D

  • damn, you made the whole house shake!

    [Jk, it was the cam moving]

  • that is just INSANE! perfect, but some mad pianoskills! i'm just going to keep on practising and maybe someday i will be at least half as good as you are.

  • perfect...

  • AHHHHHH. this was amazing, and your learnt it by ear? pure genius!

  • i like it !! mostly because i can´t play the piano but i apreciate the effort in thsalvo (and anybody) to learn this kind of instrument..... so if you are a pianist, violinist, o you play another instrument... brother i salute you!

  • tres bien!

  • I want yours ears! try compose our own music.

  • I'm very confused by you performance. It sound beautifully and whats more you played it by ear, that is really amazing. But your technique doesn't fit that overall impression. You should try to place you seat farther away from your keyboard, or else your arms won't have enough space to move and you might hurt yourself indeed. Please take a look at other pianists. Again, I'm amazed, despite your crippling arms(excuse me but it looks definitely that way), you pull of that great performance.

  • @arschgrauviolett I think this person has never taken lessons. And I find his video more amazing for that. It doesn't matter if his arms haven't enough place to move if the results is like this ! Especially because I'm not a pianist but a violonist...

    And the best musicians are often people who learned music by their own ! So they may have not much technique but they are very talented !

    (and sorry for my English, I'm fench)

  • @nanas1109 I agree, as long the result is fine, technique shouldn't matter. But in terms of health I can only advise to change habits, if pain happen to occur. Besides approved technique isn't taught for nothing, it can improve your playing and help you to take care of your body.

  • @arschgrauviolett In that way I agree too. And I know what that is to have pain because not having a good technique (I often have tendonitis when I play too much violin, because I'm very tensed...)

  • @arschgrauviolett Mmm, Are you a doctor? Otherwise, I'm sure you don't know for a fact that the position of the arms and hands in this video are endangering this person's health.

  • @CoolKiidsInc Mmm, no I'm not. That's why I wrote it 'might',you see the difference, ?(it means it is possible and not for sure, in case you don't know). If not it's even better and I don't see any offense in my comment, but thanks for butting in.

    Kind regards

  • @arschgrauviolett Watch Supersition music video, try telling Stevie Wonder that ;) You can't teach talent.

  • @Loucandoit I never said anything about talent or sktill or whatever, I don't understand why people get offended when confrontated with health reasoning. But ok it's fine by me. Do you know the saying, beauty has its price? Think about it...

  • you are a great pianist! AMAZING!

  • AWESOME wish i could ve that hability =)

  • breakdance with vingers on piano...

  • amazing.

  • it sounds like a harp...

  • u r blessed!

  • this was briliant.

  • FUCKING PLASTIC KEYS

  • ouch.. thats AWSOME!

  • So cool... don't listen to stupid comments.

  • I dont know if I am wrong but it looks like your not even playing >.<

  • I like the fresh creativity added to the song, especially how you gave it a proper ending! well done!

  • Holy crap! You made the freakin' camera shake! o.o

    Wow.

    BUT FREAKY HANDS D:

  • this is awesome bro. Screw the haters. I cant listen to your version enough. Amazing job, bravo.

  • left handed i see

  • Comment removed

  • dude thats wake am i the only one who can see that..

  • I can see you put a lot of thought into this comment.

    1.) I disagree, but hey, different strokes for different folks.

    2.) A real piano would be a great idea for late night practice sessions in my tiny apartment. Thanks for the tip.

    3.) I think I'll be fine, but thanks for the concern.

  • @Godsonesin First of all, i rather enjoy this version, a duet he plays by himself. second, not everyone has a piano. lastly, i love the way he plays the piano. it looks sick. just sayingXD

  • @Damuse8191 so jsut because he look "sick" playing that way doesnt mean he wont hurt his wrists.

  • @Godsonesin You're such a wonderful encouragement asshole.

  • @Calculusman08 its called honesty...there jsut not much left in the world so its shocking to some people.

  • @Godsonesin What you have failed to acknowledge, is that the video has obtained a 5 star rating. Putting you at a small disadvantage. Your opinion isn't necessarily the truth, so your don't act as if it is.

  • @Calculusman08 1st i never said it was the truth so i don't know where you got that, all i said was that i was being HONEST, look it up. 2nd my mother plays piano and took lessons and she passed the knowledge on the me that is why i stated he was going to end up hurting his wrists. 3rd i commend him for playing by ear but you shouldn't do it that way, admittedly i have before but its not a proper way to learn, youll never learn to read music if you play by ear. lastly i didn't like the version.

  • @Godsonesin It doesn't matter. Your mom isn't Mozart, so chill out. You don't have as much knowledge as you like. Reading music isn't necessary to be good at piano. Proper is a norm, and not a very clear one either. It's a matter of opinion. I can play piano better than some people who have been playing (with lessons) for 5+ years, yet I've only been playing for 2, with no lessons. Explain that smartass. I know the definition of honest. But your implication shows truth. Get it right.

  • @Calculusman08 ok you keep thinking what you must to be happy.

  • @Godsonesin Look asshole. You're not a professional, and your insults, or whatever you may call it, is rude. Let him learn the way he choses.

  • @Calculusman08 and now you have reverted to name calling how childish. i feel bad that you have nothing better to say then call me and A**hole.. You truly sadden me. i feel bad that you get so upset over someones honest opinion.

    xoxo.

  • @Godsonesin

    Playing the piano is all about playing by ear lol..

    Notes are just a way to learn the songs, if you play by ear you train your ears and will be able to play a lot better pieces.

    You will also learn why it is played that way. You will learn to make your own version of songs wich you probably will not learn if you always play by notes.

    And even if this is not true, let him play the way he wants.

    My apologyze for my bad englisch

  • @milanmusicmaker its not about playing by ear its about plying whats on the sheet and LEARNING the music. You should play by memory not by ear.

  • @Godsonesin

    It is not about playing what the sheets sais. It is about making music that sounds good.

    If you learn by ear you learn the music, and I bet you do better. Reading notes and play piano are two different things. Learning notis is optional. Not required. If you play by ear you DO play by memory...

  • @milanmusicmaker just because you play by ear does not mean that your playing by memory. playing by memory means you have learned the song and no longer need the sheet music. i do that with canon, Davy Jones lullaby, Comptine D'Un Autre Ete L'Apres and a few others. But AGAIN i have already stated that I have played by ear. I play the Jurassic park theme by ear, i play Mario, Zelda, Disney songs all by ear. take the 5 seconds to see it was my Opinion.

  • @Godsonesin sorry buddy but it's not. People who play by ear usually have to make it up; while sheet music people just copy it from someone who already did.

    Ear people take more time and work. Even if the quality's not as great.

  • @AznSpiritJP lol you obviously have no knowledge when it comes to the piano. 1st off if you read ALL my comments i never said he was a bad pianist i said that I didn't like the version, just MY OPINION. Second i stated fact a fact, if he keeps moving his wrists like that he is eventually going to end up hurting them. thirdly if you recall i said i HAVE played by ear for a few songs because i could not find the sheet music. Playing by ear doesn't really make you any more or less creative.

  • @Godsonesin HAHAHAH well first of all, you obviously can't read period. I never said that you called him a bad pianist.

    I don't care, wait, NO ONE cares if you don't like it; he just needs constructive criticism, not a comment that says "you shouldn't play it by ear." Why not? Houw would anyone be able to play this song without listening to it by ear? They don't want to pay for the sheet music. Give me a reason why playing by ear is bad, mr "15 years of piano my mom passed onto me"

  • @Godsonesin he's not going to hurt his wrists, and playing by ear makes you more creative, i'm starting to makes songs while i'm away from my piano because after ten years of playing by ear you don't have to sit at your piano to know what key sounds like what.

  • @AznSpiritJP i write and play my own music but i still use the sheets why? because it teaches you to read notes so that when u do need to use sheet music its easier to read. So to anyone reading this stop commenting with negativity, i know what I'm talking about, not on a professional level but i have been playing for about 15 years so I'm not completely clueless on whats proper and whats needed.

  • @Godsonesin Proper way to learn? Please. I hope you've grown up over the past year cause there is no proper way to learn to play music. I feel like you're one of those perfectionists that are obsessed with everything being done the 'right' way. Just becuase someone doesn't play piano the traditional way and by ear doesn't mean anything. Don't like the version? Cool, but why did you troll his video telling him how to play HIS piano? Pretty lame. Lots of famous artists learn their music by ear.

  • @Godsonesin Hmm Just...Hush it.. It's not like you can do better, plus it's not for you to decide how he has to play the song or if he has to use a piano rather than a keyboard...

    but anyway I think it was great =] keep up the good work

  • *speechless* can i hug u???  o.o urrrr ammmaaaiizzinggg...JULIARD WORTHY IF I MAY SAY SO MY SELF!!!!!!

  • Akien tratas de engañar farsante!! no eres tu quien toca no son iguales los acordes al sonido obtenido quien toco la pieza por ti es un genio no te cuelgues creditos q no son tuyos..dense cuenta q no los piye este tio de forma mas simple escuchen el sonido de teclas en algunas el torpe se adelanta y en otras se atrasa haciendo creer q el toca

  • you....are a GOD

  • WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOW,,,,,,, Damn gd ,, keep it up =)

  • misschangge i do the same but for the past three years not two .. :D ..

  • bravo! very very nice

  • nicely performed

  • i've never stopped playing this video again and again for the past two years.

  • obsessed much? jk. it's a good song to learn

  • Some extra notes are added that are not originally in it but other than that, very very impressive.

  • Truly Excellent!!!

  • please send a recording of this (: sounds pretty kwl

  • Ok i saw this video 2 years back and the sound was fine but now its a little off sync. Its perfectly real and his own. Give the man a little credit instead of hating.

  • you hear the pressing of the keys ... 90% no fake

  • hes not faking cuz he hits a accidental wrong note at 1:02 hes not faking!!!!!!!!!!!! i love it it does look fake the way you press the keys though but ur not faking

  • That commonly happens with Piano recordings. Dunno why but it usually records majorly out of sync with pianos.

  • Awsome!

  • Comment removed

  • He's not faking- there's just rather a lot of latency with the recording & video.

  • He's not faking this, if u knew anything about pianos you would know that he is hitting the right notes.

  • I'm not sure what doesn't "match up." That absolutely is me playing the song. Besides, faking something like this would probably be more effort than just playing the actual song.

  • I had a question since you are here and everything. You are not just really good at what you do but you also only use 9 fingers, unless I'm wrong. Why aren't you using your left ring finger? Good, no, great work.

  • I think it's a play by ear thing. I play the piano by ear too and I do the same thing. For some reason, my left ring finger stays up too. Have no clue why. I'm sure it has to do with playing by ear. XD

  • you're probably seeing lag between audio and video- happens all the time.

    You can clearly tell he's playing with the intervals and patterns- and you can hear B flat when he hits the accidental on the run at 1:02.

  • His other videos are amazing as well! It is him playing!

  • @aprincessblue92 its more of just audio not matching up with the video. but if you look at the keys pressed and sound coming out, same thing..

  • @aprincessblue92 It doesn't match up because the camera catches the sound before it catches the video. That's why. It happens to me too. It's normal.

  • DUDE! ur really very good am im inpressed !

  • porque es un genio

  • super!!!!!

  • Muy buena la interpretacion!!

  • I liked very much!

    Good job!

  • holy shit!! u play fast!! It looks like u sped it up!! Keep up the good work! xD

  • I can't get enough of this video, but it would be even better if you played the song on a better piano. If you did that, I'll watch that video even more.

  • Por que tocas tan raro?

  • I tried to play this but my hands don't seem to coordinate to play two pieces at once. (As Is bass and tune ^_^)

  • I don't even play piano....

  • Ahahahaha I can hear when you hit one of those electric piano's without turning the on button and sounds like your hitting plastic. I sound like that, ROFL!

  • imprecionante

  • tienes el piano trasportado ???

    medio tono abajo.... bu !!!

  • MissKissThis12333 ,fallonhadley, and Relic142 are a bunch of douchbags. I know this, I'm a douchbag professionalist.

  • indeed

  • @MissKissThis12333  apparently not cause this is real.

  • It IS him playing. I think you are not that professional...

  • so mejo io

  • omg i your super awesome i couldn't keep up with your hand.

  • oh wow

    that was amazing....

    your hands blurred....lol

    loved this part in the movie to :]

  • please make a tutorial!!

  • is there sheet music?

  • hahahaha the the camera off the piano

  • You beat every "Bride/Piano" Adaptation ! +5, best job i ever see

  • Simply gorgeous!

  • holy crap. That was intense! The camera was ready to fall down! lol I loved it! ::adds to playlist:: 5 Stars!

  • Crazy technik of playing piano... I like IT... You're master player...

  • Speed!!! =)) I love that music!!!

  • crazy

  • speech cannot possibly claim my vocal chords....

  • I seriously listen to this over and over again XD <3

  • being an accomplished pianist its absolutely incredible you got to be that coordinated at piano with such terrible wrist and finger movements. This is a compliment. Fantastic job mate. :)

  • Exactly! That's what I was getting at.

  • you're brilliant !!

  • wow, look at those hands move!!

  • Do you have something wrong with your left hand's ring finger...? It seems you avoid using it... maybe it's just me.

    Wonderfully played, though. That ring finger thing irked me, though. Just wondering.

  • There's probably nothing wrong with his hands. I'm the same with the cpu keyboard and I type 85 wpm. I don't know how to type, i just know where all the keys are. However, bcuz I dont type the proper way, my left wrist starts to hurt sometimes.
