I loved this cover so much, I wanted to share it with everyone on my channel, but you should go and watch it on Mike's channel too and subscribe to him because, duh, he's talented.

Putting stuff in a piano to change the sound is called a "Prepared Piano." Please don't try it, you can damage your piano. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prepared_piano

  • didn't like being patronised about 'not putting stuff in my piano'

  • @Zxdftyu Most people imitate what they see and pianos are expensive, just trying to keep my viewers form getting grounded. =)

  • Nice :) Will Benzines cover be up anytime?

  • @SushiGoat I don't know, you'll have to ask him.

  • This is great! I like the muffled sound of the other piano with the shirt. Did you come up with that?

  • @telmacblack Check out "Bells for Her" by Tori Amos for a commercial example of a great prepared piano.

  • Oh my God- I was watching that thinking "Is that Mike?!" I went to fucking high school with this kid... Small fucking world, man. God, I remember when he was in Breaking Over Nothing with Sam DeMarco, Wes Rose, and Sean Caughlin and they played at our school's open mic nights.

  • This is a fantastic cover! I love Mikes voice and the piano! I use the piano for the opening on my collab chanel! (thebookchallenge) I just love it so much <3

  • Nice, just finally heard this on good speakers. Awesome cover.

  • Sounds pretty good.

  • YAY! Prepared Piano! =D

  • nice cover, mike! when i first heard it, this song really felt like it was built around conard's vocals. not sure i like mike's voice for it, but he sings so exceptionally well that it doesn't really matter in the end. love the effect on the muffled piano, and nice drumming man. ;-D good to see some live drums for once! *drummer salute*

  • @fallofautumndistro john cage sonata V is a better example what a genius

  • ☼Awesome job! I really liked it!☼

  • This is a really nice song!

    Regrettably, I haven't actually heard the original so I must make sure I do that! :P
