tune the fucking piano

This is played on an antique upright, "saloon" piano, which gave rise to the "honkytonk" sound, Its' actually in tune! The idea was to get multiple sounds from a single instrument, thru resonance, for a reverb effect. I've seen and heard many of these, and no two ever sound alike, because the quality of the wood wasn't very consistent, and humidity and temperature effects them.

"Tune the piano" is an understatement. Just throw away your piano and get a brand new Yamaha.

Don't shoot me, I'm a piano player )



interesting, i like it in this key better than the original (sounds like E/out of tune F instead of C)... just curious, why do you play it in this key?
and i think that chord this guy is talking about is a G or Ab (depending on if its in E or F) - major chord instead of the parallel major that elton actually does.
sweet work.

Wau, thanks for the nice comments! The key is a very out of tune F :-) I simply play it that way because it fits better to my voice.
