100 Years - Five for fighting (piano)

Per request, a better known FFF song. 100 years. Sorry for the small video glitches.
Please don't ask for the sheetmusic, read my profile.

Clydesdale asked an interesting question:

there's 3 types of players, note readers look at music and play it great and consistent from the first time on but often memorize poorly. Improvisers don't read notes well, their music often single notes with cords. They improvise a number of ways but never play the same twice. The last, brute force. They struggle through 1000 times until it becomes part of them. Learn which you are, you may be one type, a mix, etc. 10miles where do you put yourself?


YouTube wouldn't let me put the whole answer in the box, so I'm putting it here.

I think I'm a mix between the first two. I can play most sheetmusic in one go (especially if I know the song), which should be obvious from all the video's where I am looking for the CODA symbol and can't find it because it's the first or second time I'm playign the song ;). But then I don't neccesarily need the sheetmusic, I can play by ear as well, and I hardly ever strictly follow the sheetmusic to begin with ( leaving out and adding notes..sometimes changing things a little).
It's the ones I learn by ear that I can instantly memorize, but when there is sheetmusic I have to really study it to learn it from memory..(which I'm a bit too lazy for usually since it takes more time and there's s much more to play and figure out...)

I learn my songs in like 2 days then I can play them from memory...My mom says it's weird.

[10milesfromnowhere]

@RowbotDinoJunkies3 I can sightread a song within 1 or 2 hours.. 2 days seems like wasting time then ;)

FINALLY someone plays it in the correct tempo, everyone else plays it it WAY too fast and it loses its emotion when you do it fsat.

@StarBurst4263 I don't think he need to "learn" it. He has a sheet of the piece so he's just sight reading it.

[StarBurst4263]

This is amazing! How hard was it for you to learn it? Because I was thinking of learning it, but I don't want to go in over my head! LOL Thanks :)

Just enjoy learning it or playing it. Enough said.

@mindy13914425 I also agree with you. Why are people bragging about this?? It might take me weeks to learn this( well not really it only takes a couple of days for me) Still why are we bragging?? Everyone learns differently.

[mindy13914425]

Why is so many people bragging about how fast they can learn this piece on the piano? Are we not playing this song for the same purpose and will we not get there eventually, whether it takes us two days or two hours?
