My attempt on "Lovers In Japan" by Coldplay. I tried to cover the acoustic version of the song so it's played in D major instead of G. I'm actualy playing in C major but I've transposed it to D. The instrument I'm playing is the honky-tonk piano with a layer of nylon guitar. Strings, bass & percussion arranged with Propellerheads Reason. Recorded with B-Control DeeJay BCD2000.

  • wrong notes but its an ok cover, dont believe me then listen to the song

  • It's a cover, not an exact copy of the original song.

  • @thescientistband no, fest797 is right. You're playing in the key of D, when the original key is in G. Perfect pitch doesn't lie....sorry. You really should play it in its original key if you're doing a cover - it's not like you're changing the key to fit your vocal range: you're playing a piano, not singing. Nevertheless, I love the MTF on your hand and the tape on the fingers - you're a real Coldplay fan!!

  • @wiitennisman1 If you read the info you will see there is an acoustic version of this song and it's played in D and that's why I'm playing it that way. Anyways there are no rules about doing covers on youtube, at least none that I know of.

  • what type of font is the title???

  • The font name is Levi Brush.

  • Wow !! Awesome cover, i like the soft sound !! :) how did u do that to your hand (it's exactly like chris martin's) !! Thats really awesome please let me know :)

  • Fair Trade ftw!

  • This actually sounds really great! I like the improvisation of the scale change too. i don't get why some people get so stingy on that. Just because it doesn't sound like the original doesn't mean that it's an incorrect way to cover a song. Do what you want, you don't need to listen to them.

  • I've never seen this done in C before. Anyway, decent cover. Try it in G, sounds alot better.
