How To Save A Life - The Fray (Piano Cover) (CHECK OUT MY NEW COVER)

Subscribe please and click more info.

In my opinion How To Save A Life is one of the greatest songs ever wrote. My reasons for this are 1: even though this song is getting on a bit now it still sound very modern, like Aerosmith I Don't Wanna Miss A Thing, or Iris by the Goo Goo Dolls. 2: It's different and doesn't go along the normal lines of how a song is usually structured: Intro, 1st Verse, 1st Chorus, 2nd Verse, 2nd Chorus, Bridge, 3rd Chorus, Outro. 3: It's a very true song and tells an in depth story in each and every line.

Now, my arrangement of the melody is quite complex, and even though the verses in How To Save A Life can be remembered easily when you are singing it to yourself in your head, it is not easy when trying to remember the suttel changes on Piano. Because of this, I was actually reading the lyrics to this song and picking it be ear as I was playing it. It had taken me a few takes to get to this video, and then when I was getting into the swing of things the phone rings and distracts me. Just when I thought I was safe, it rang again, so that is why you will hear a couple of slight stutters in the song. Also because of the bad light I used a Black and White effect to get rid of some of the graininess and noise. This is also the first video that I actually show myself in the picture. Hopefully the first of many :)
