Omg. Epic. Love this song soooo much. Came here to hear how it sounded on piano to help me with playing- didn't expect to get put into a trance xD

So fast- but seeing you play it makes ME determined to learn it myself! :D Thanks for your greatness!

[MrLemo45]

Just epic. Pure epicness :D

[HollowRiku]

@MrLemo45 Thanks!!

[Soralce]

Is it possible for you to play The Opened Way(SotC)? I think you could do it better than anyone here, if you want to.

[HollowRiku]

@Soralce Thank you! Woah, that's an awesome theme xDD Thanks for the suggestion! I like playing epic themes like that one, but I don't know when I'll be able to play it, I have some other songs in mind to play first! x_x and I need my new mic to arrive since my last one is broken right now xD I hope I can upload more vids soon!

[Soralce]

@HollowRiku 1 Month later and still listening to this video. What do you have in mind for future songs?

[HollowRiku]

@Soralce xD Thank you! Dunno =P I'm a bit busy with university, but I wanna re-record some very old vids I have like the sunlit earth one~

[BAOUZIZI]

wish there was a auto replay D: AMAZING!!! KEEP IT UP :D

[HollowRiku]

@BAOUZIZI Thank you!!

[Shiroitora55]

There is.

[RafaNunes7]

@BAOUZIZI Well, there is as an extension of Google Chrome. I've used it to listen this song.

About the video:

Guy, congrats, it was really amazing. Try to keep your excellent job as a pianist. =D

[XRed93]

I Have 2 question: 1) I'm learning this but after the first part my left arm is kind of destroyed so how can you play so strong? 2) The last part is amazing but I can't do these fast movements, do you have some advice?

Oh, by the way, simply amazing the best video of Fate of the unknown piano I ever heard

[HollowRiku]

@XRed93 Thank you so much Red! Aw I'm so bad at giving advices ;w; xD I have't had that "Tired arm" problem with this song, but it has happened to me with other ones, I guess the only possible solutions is to keep playing and playing that song everyday, so the muscles get used to it xD

Play the final part in a very slow tempo where you feel very comfortable, and then increase the speed just a bit everytime until you can master it!

[XRed93]

@HollowRiku I see, thank you! I'll definitely try like you said

[captainaustralia1]

Holy shit that was EPIC!  Make sure you put this talent to good use and become professional!

[HollowRiku]

@captainaustralia1 Thank you!!

[HollowRiku]

@ruruCC Woah xD Thank you so much!!

[hollowexercist]

you have outdone yourself with this one. i loved it. the game, the perfection you pulled it off with. Amazing. Bravo.

[HollowRiku]

@hollowexercist Thank you!! I'm so glad you've liked it, I really love playing this song!!

[sassui90]

0 ppl missed the like button, it seems the viewers are making less mistakes.

Great job, it sounds amazing! ^^

[HollowRiku]

@sassui90 Wow! xD Thank you! I can't believe it sill has 0 dislikes!!

[sassui90]

@HollowRiku well, i can tell you that i don't see why someone would have a reason to dislike this other than just trolling around

btw again, it sounds perfect! xD

[starfire139]

Rather than playing the beginning with loud then softer, I'd recommend that you just build up to the part where you start getting into it, so the loudness isn't as random.

Other than that, I'm jealous of your playing. XD You get the faster parts with your left hand (er, the chromatic-like parts...) really well. Yeah and with the right hand too. I always mess up right there.... :D And you really bring out the melody~

[HollowRiku]

@starfire139 Thanks a lot starfire!! Really appreciate your comment! *-*

Yeah, I don't know why I feel like doing it that way when I'm playing it, but now I'm listening to it and it sounds a bit weird xD

[kyubinaruto2]

por dios XD roza la perfeccion madre mia la mejor version de youtube sin duda

gracias por alegrarme los oidos

[HollowRiku]

@kyubinaruto2 ¡¡Gracias kyubi!! *-*

[awesomeishabelful]

@kojizzle2706 okay.. well your friend is right for saying that this isn't hard, but playing this as the first song you ever played on the piano.. I might say you've got talent :)

[awesomeishabelful]

@kojizzle2706 you've got _shitloads_ of talent if you learned to play this song the exact way he played it + in a week without any experiences on piano before.

[HCSquall]

Maaah, didn't it send my comment? Whatever:

This is... pure awesomeness! Great job. *_* *add to favorites*

[HollowRiku]

@HCSquall Thanks a lot Squall!! So glad you've liked it!!

[Kairi160]

aaa me encantaaa, y encima es del videojuego k mas me gusta!!!

[HollowRiku]

@Kairi160 ¡Gracias! :D

[Blakolk456]

[HollowRiku]

@Blakolk456 Thanks to you for commenting Blakolk!!

[sasunarufan22]

*Dies from epicness*

[HollowRiku]

@sasunarufan22 xD Thanks!!

[NytFantom]

Fantastic job! I tried viewing it with the video and after i get your video and the birth by sleep video synced, you would start getting a little ahead so I'm thinking you may have had a faster tempo it's still fantastic though :D

[HollowRiku]

@NytFantom Thank you!! *-* Yeah, I guess it's quite hard to play exactly at the same tempo without using a metronome! xD

[FlameOfLight1]

Damn it...ö.ö you are great dude realy perfect Job i can`t say more ö.ö xD keep it up^^

[HollowRiku]

@FlameOfLight1 Thank you Flame!!

[icohornedboy]

duuude this is all kinds of epic!

[HollowRiku]

@kojizzle2706 Of course you have O__O lol!

[offsummer92]

Magnifique !!! c'est super bien joué, bravo ;))

[HollowRiku]

@offsummer92 Merci!

[TurtlekidX]

Wh-what is this? Surely these are not merely human hands playing that ferocious beast of an arrangement! How long did it take you to learn this piece and play it so well!?

[HollowRiku]

@TurtlekidX Wow, thank you!!! I can't remember >_< I learnt it long time ago, it's not a very hard piece to learn!

[SpazaroththeSkiz]

Oh....gosh o.o. Wow.

[twilightking64]

Hellooo, Me again, just wondering, i can play this now (chords are simplified cos im not as good as you =P) but just wondering which fingers you use for the run downs, eg at 0:49 and 1:23

Just btw, the ending is IMENSE!!

[HollowRiku]

@twilightking64 Hi! I'm using these fingers: 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 5

Thank you! Love playing that ending, it's awesome xD!

[pokemonfriend100]

This is amazing. Is it hard to play this?

[tvedi23]

this gave me goosebumps..haha

[AngelusVir]

how did u train ur hands to play the scale so fast? is it hanon? i need to no please T_T

[HollowRiku]

@AngelusVir Hi! Well, I don't know! xD I've just been playing for lots of years, so playing the piano a bit every day is the key! I actually played some Hanon exercises long time ago (not the whole book!), it may have helpled, who knows xD

[SoraCaelum]

@HollowRiku oh i see thx xD xD im the same person btw >.<

[twilightking64]

Omfg thats amazing!! on a scale of 1-100, how hard is it to play?

[HollowRiku]

@twilightking64 Thank you!! I'd say... 60? It depends on the piano player! xD

[DelayedorDestroyed]

did hollow riku do the piano ?

[HollowRiku]

@DelayedorDestroyed Errmh I played it if that's what you're asking! xD

[boogfdz]
