A fellow youtube member requested a top view of this piece, and here it is. I would have a hard time learning this way, but hey everyone's different!

Are you using any pedal on that? At the very end you hit the two notes and take your hands away and they resonate. On my piano, which is a fairly cheap digital one, when I take my fingers off the keys the sounds stops (unless I'm holding down the sustain pedal of course). Is that just the result of having a cheap piano?

[SeWonFeldsott]

@yonomow Yes, it's a bad habit but I use a lot of the sustain pedal, including right at the end there. I need to learn how to lift it at the right times so the notes don't get too jumbled

I am learning to play this song for my girlfriend when I propose and I have the same sheet music as you. Is there anyway to get this video as a downloadable mp3? you timing is way better than mine and I'd like to listen to it to train my fingers. I'm not a trained piano player and I'm teaching myself this song so the timing and flow is kind of shaky right now.

[SeWonFeldsott]

Hi there, I wish I could help you more but I don't really know how to make this into an mp3 file. I guess I could do some research. Is your computer not near your piano? or do you have a laptop that you could bring near the piano? keep practicing, you'll get it. Key is to take it step by step and master each measure before you move onto the next one. It takes time but that's the best way for sure.

[Aliatbean]

I don't play piano, but I've been teaching myself, slowly but surely, for about 2 years now. I plan on learning how to play this song just like you did above (Beautifully done, just to say) for, just for reasons, but your tutorials are very helpful, and I thank you very much. ^_^

This was the song to our Wedding dance. Our very talented friend played the piano and sang quite well as we waltzed in our 1st dance. It was the most amazing moment ever. My husband just played it for me for our 4th wedding anniversary.....I couldn't stop crying. I am the luckiest.....even though he says he is.

Your playing is impeccable and quite full of expression, which is not easy to do both. Congrats and thanks for posting this.

@SeWonFeldscott Yes, we are all different! I have a VERY hard time reading sheet music but if I can glance at the chords that the song is played in, I can play the rest by feeling. It also serves as and excellent tool to check single notes in the progression of the song that I may be confused about. I didn't request the top view of this piece, but I just want to add that it is VERY helpful to me also. You play wonderfully. Thank you for taking the time to share with us... ^_^

@DrRx34

even though you asked this question a year ago, and you probably don't need an answer anymore, download dvdvideosoft, and it has a lot of differant uses, including youtube to ipod and into mp3
