Goo Goo Dolls - Black Balloon Piano (w. Dave Matthews ending)

Studio recording available on iTunes:
http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/black-balloon/id388777320

This is my piano cover version of The Goo Goo Dolls' "Black Balloon" with my own alternate ending with some Dave Matthews lyrics.

Unfortunately I don't have piano sheets for the song.

I improvise over the following (note that the piano is transposed):

Verse:
D5 D5/G (intro and reapeated through most of the verse)
Bm Asus4 D5/G Esus2 D5
Chorus:
Bm Asus4 D5/G D5
Bridge:
D5/F# G Asus4 (2x)
Outro (DM lyrics):
Same as intro

Oh my god. I have to know what did you use to record this? It's simply beautiful!

[MrBlackBalloon]

Thanks. It was simply recorded with my old camcorder.

[MysticStudi0]

Do you record the music and sing at the same time? Because its very nice!!

[MrBlackBalloon]

Thanks. For this particular video I recorded both music and vocals at the same time through the mic on the video camera. On some of the later videos I've recorded them seperately.

Now that's fuckin talent

[morpheas768]

I dont know why, but somehow this is better than the original song by Goo Goo Dolls.

Well done MrBlackBalloon! :)
