How to play Desperado

[Pipimiepje]

Good stuff, a great help!

[fsumike2000]

The most accurate version I've seen yet.  I just wish I could see the keys you are hitting a little better (I don't really know my chords on piano yet...)

[PinkFloyd4dummies]

Recap: G(9) G7 C(9) Cm6 G (D/F#) Em A7 D (G Gmaj7 G7)

G D "don't you draw the queen of diamond" Em Bm C G D/F# Em C G D/F#

Am7 D6 A G

This is indeed a very good tutorial, and I agree with LOOKN450. The fact that your are giving chords is a lot better than giving note by note. Things you could also explain to us (if you have some time): how some of the chords you play along are inverted so they can be played more easily on the piano, or the nice trick of how changing the base of a chord changes the whole chord sometime (ame thing as inverted chords). Anyway THANKS for the lesson :-)

[blithe1955]

wow, you sound like a very patient teacher. thanks for the piano lesson.

[AzureKitePK]

Thank you so much! You helped me win the talent show at my high school!

[kolokenley]

i'm a really ameatur , but when i see this tutorial. Now i can play it , and i just learn it for 1 day. So THNK YOU VER MUCH FOR THE TUTORIAL. IT'S REALLY HANDFUL

[missellie505]

to the person saying do a little homework... were not all 6 month piano students some people just wanna learn a song dont kill us if we cant do it iwthout lessons and need to get on with our lives but seriously GREAT VID THIS IS AMAZING

[acdcblaster1]

I think you played the music great and everything, but it is so hard to watch you play it and learn from it do to the camera angle..

[TheMarinegirl19]

awesome I just barely starting to learn how to play it. good job.

[f4c4d3001]

its good but cant see ymca from the left hand......tutorial on the right none on the left :/

[MERTizJAMMIN]

crystal clear sound!

[Acoontey]

Can you teach the notes of the chords? I can't see them in the verse and you don't detail that :(.

[LOOKN450]

As a 6 month, semi self-taught piano student, I'm getting a good workout with your tutorial, and I appreciate it for two reasons. First of all, it sounds accurate,and secondly, by not showing every finger playing every note, I have to listen harder which helps me to learn it better, and to everyone complaining about your not spelling it out note for note, people, do a little homework, look up what a 6th chord is, a slash chord is, etc... Thanks for your time and for a fine job !!!!

[Pianoman2489]

@LOOKN450 You're very welcome! I'm glad you got more out of it than just the notes. I don't put the camera directly above the keyboard because I don't have anything to hold it there. I'll continue doing harder songs by saying the chords and going note-by-note for easier parts.

[tdsoil2]

This video is legit, bro. just throwing that out there. thanks

[hollynat]

REALLY GREATTTT

BUTTT plzz could you put your cam over the piano so I could see your fingers? PLZZZ

loved it!

[IndyJ10]

What kind of piano is that? If you could let me know, it'd be very appreciated, thanks!!!

[hiqwertyhi]

@IndyJ10 it looks extremely similar to a Yamaha MO8 (i have one and it's really good) only difference i saw was the buttons were moved around a little. but yeah try searching Yamaha MO8

[ElmoPiano]

Thanks for posting this classic. The sheet music for Glenn Frey's original piano part for The Eagles' "Desperado" can be found at manymidi.com/sheetmusic.htm - a note-for-note transcription.

[Docjakel]

piano man, anychance on you redoing the chords on this video? I enjoy yoru version much more, and just slowing down teh Chords a little ( more explanation to the newbies) seems like it would go along way. thanks agian the Intro was perfect!

[lyingpancake95]

It would be a lot more help if the camera was at an angle where i coul actually see what your playing...

[cdwynn]

i have to see your fingers to be able to learn it  could you make a vidio with the camera above you looking down at your fingers ( a beginner) thats all i need to be able to see all the fingers and i have found i can learn a lot of songs if they show it this away

[brumfieldcalvin]

Hey man i could use your help cause my dream is to be a country musician but i want to play piano and sing....can you help me out...you prolly don't read comments on these vids but i thought i would try anyway

[Pianoman2489]

@brumfieldcalvin I read the comments. What kind of help do you need?

[HardyHarHarlans]

at 1:49 , what are the notes that he is playing on the left hand?

[Pianoman2489]

@HardyHarHarlans E, B, and the E one octave above.

[claukarling]

You are great! Thanks for sharing. I am learning pop song piano and this is very helpful.

[poisenmushrooms4u]

damn you dont even explain how to play it your just play it and blurt out crap like c minor 6 if you put HOW TO in a video title make sure you explain HOW TO play it....

[poisenmushrooms4u]

this makes no sense...blurting out c minor 6 and crap idk what that means!!! you coulda took the time and showed us each note instead of just play play play play

[sk8ordie3895]

thanks man!! you got me started on my piano career lol(:

[Pianoman2489]

@sk8ordie3895 Awesome. Best of luck with it!

[emorejekul]

[Bluenotestudio24]

[Msfuwafuwa]

Thank you very much for this Nice Movie.

I hope you live in Japan.

Please keep on doing your BesT work, study & hobby.

Take care of yourself.

[lilrae1226]

The beginning of the tutorial was great cuz you did it step by step, but if you wanted the tutorial to be good you would have slowed down when teaching the chorus. You might as well have posted a video of you playing the song instead because it was too fast and frustrating and hard to follow for someone just learning the song. However you do play the song well and you did a great job teaching the beginning. Thanks for the start but I think I have to go try another tutorial

[caw0059]

@lilrae1226 I agree

[mikeyhall123456]

thanks! It was great knowing the chords, and then step by step.

your video is great

[jesuschrysler123]

That was really well played...it'll take me a while..

[themankh]

This was really helpful, thanks !

[monkeykid3250]

This dude sheetmusic211 stole your vid, man. He added sheet music in the comments and called it his own.

[Pianoman2489]

@monkeykid3250 Thanks man. I'm on it.

[SKExotics]

I said thanks before but ill say it again, great tutorial! Cant wait for new tutorials!

[togor]

thx for that!!!

[TheForgeShow]

Awesome tutorial! This song is so awesome :) tysm!!
