It was amazing...I actually got to meet this guy!! no joke....he lives in my cousins church ward, and they had one of their children die :( he was so caring that he came home from tour for a day and played at the funeral!
He plays with such amazing feeling and emotion. Very inspiring. I want to grow up and be like him. I have published a couple albums that are very similar to his. He is a great inspiration.
like i said a while ago, all his music without orchestra is the original way. the orchestra was how he made it popular but it is lesser with it in my opinion. another thing is this song on the video is cut in half, the song is more like 6 min long on the piano only cd and breath taking. i find this arrangement is still beautiful but not as magnificent.
I agree....sometimes the orchestra takes away from a performance such as this one.I'm glad to hear that its longer then this on the cd as I'm going to get it soon and this song I could easily listen to for a much longer period of time.
I swear, Joseph's music is truly from another world. I personally believe it to be a greater form of storytelling. Every song that he plays can tell a story better than anyone I have ever heard; every note a word in a novel he has written. Truly inspirational!
I saw him play in Wickenburg Az, and his opening made me cry.. and i am not one to cry. it was just breath takingly beautigul.. the fire alarms starting going off cause of the fog.. but no one wanted to move because he was just SO terrific. It was great.. he's such a nice man too.
yes, your're certainly entitled to your own opinion to "hate" the orchestra on his CDs, but using the word SHOULD whenever talking about a musician is just not chill. Don't talk crap on Joseph because you don't believe him and he likes to do things you don't and writes music you can't.

I hate the orchestra on his cds. They drown out his playing, and it seems like they are trying to compete with Joseph's piano skills, when they should be doing their part by only being an accompaniment. William Joseph is full of shit when he says that it has always been his dream to play with orchestra. What musician would want his music to be drowned out by a pompous and over zealous orchestra?? Must be paid big bucks by David Foster inorder to keep the orchestra.
This is such an amazing song. It was the first song that I heard of William Josephs. And I absolutely love it. It's amazing. Artists like him are far and few between, but to have one as talented as he is to write music like this is absolutely amazing.
ok the original was not with an orchestra... i was on vacation, round 5 years ago, and heard him playing at the phoenix arizona mall (this is before he got noticed). he played piano fantasy for me and omg it was amazing. i got a cd with no orchestra behind it and he signed it for me and my sister. then about 3 years later i look him up online out of curiousity (i really wanted another cd) and it had some crappy cheesy orchestra playing in the back. it was disappointing.
I would really like to have his albums without the orchestra I got so mad not being able to here it without the orechstra I am now playing Piano Fantasy and I am going to work on Within.
Love him! I really like how in this performance I can hear just him without the orchestra cuz I always hear it with the background. I always wanted to hear just his part. Thanks for posting!
The original ( = the one on the album) was with an orchestra. So, if you can get hold of the album, you'd have the original version. A pity the original is not on youtube.
WOW! I've heard this song before, but I've never seen him actually playing. I'm sorry but I have to say this. He is good looking!!!!! Haha. But besides that, he is one of thee most talented pianists i've ever heard. i'm totally in love with this song. I also LOVE his song Butterflies and Hurricanes. Check it out if you've never heard it before.
Yes, he is a great pianist but maybe you like "his" song Butterflies and Hurricanes because it´s a cover of Muse´s original version. You should check it out! I assure you, it´s even better (I think) than William´s version.

He is just awesome. My younger sister wants to be a prefessional dance.
Her first solo music is within and her dance is contemporary ballet.
The music is sooo awesome and cheography is perfect!
Even she danced 2 years, she got in top 10 at the national competition.
I'm so proud of her and thanks to Wiliam Joseph.
I love this music and I think he is juest genieus.
Within is soooo good and fantastic.
Everyone like this song even the judges.
