I used to ask a band I liked to check my tabs whenever I tried working out their songs, they kindly did but eventually said something to the effect of 'try harder first'... That was one of the best 'tough love' moments for ever in music, and has since led to me being able to work out almost anything I want - Try it yourself! You have the video to listen and watch finger placements, then if you're really struggling, reply here and I can help a little perhaps. All the best.
I was incredibly moved my this, this was so beautifully played and brought warmth to my heart. I'm a beginner to guitar, I've been learning for about 2 months, and I've been meaning to learn a song to play for my deployed hubby for our 5th anniversary. Do you happen to have the chords for this beautiful piece? If not thats okay, I hope life brings you wonders my friend ❤
Thanks so much for such a lovely compliment! It's G, Bm (with a G instead of F#) then a regular Bm for the intro. 20 seconds in is C G... C G D... The chorus is Em... C G... 3:19 - C, G, D. 3:25 - Em, maybe G... (Haven't got a Guitar here/can't remembert, but video shows it roughly... ) C, Then -2-2-4-4-x-x- if reading a tab... Next strumming section = C, G and D Em then D leading in to the outro... C... Em...G Vocal melodies are found inside the chords a lot of the time with slight variations. Hope that's useful :)
Thank you so much brother... you know what this songs means to me (and meant to Laura)... it took me 38 seconds before I lost it and 45 seconds before I lost it completely, so I'd say you did a great job 😉... or should I say "when I saw that time I was like... oh, that's not possible"? I'm pretty sure everyone liked it, and yes: I liked it too. "It was a good moment." cit. Ueli Steck. Love you brother! You have no idea how much I appreciated this.
Hey marco, long time no see. Hope all is good your side and happy to hear you've been smashing at the running!! Keep it up dude. Hopefully see you soon again
@@MattvB91 hey you! Absolutely long time no see. Let me know if you'll hit the valley (well, not literally as it would mean BFL) and I'll try come for a beer! Cheers mate.
Im bery late but this is awesome! I can really feel the emotion by just hearing it! Even when it has bad quality,i can still hear the beauty in it. I am not proffesional at piano but I think pianists would love this!
You play perfectly ... The only negative is the sound quality in your videos. This is not criticism, but rather a small hint. Good luck in your work. With love from Russia)
Spasiba drooziya! Did we meet in Russia? (My wife is Russian :)) my next purchase is actually going to be some recording equipment finally so... :) thank you!
Hey Lucas, That's quite a strong amount of audacity to write that - I just listened to part of your cover - 0:35, 0:39, 1:00, 1:10 particularly - Maybe you should get off RU-vid and use that time to practise a bit more...
I didn’t say it was bad , it was only a critical view of what you played , yeah i made some mistakes too but i improved now and my friend i’ m only 15 years old , i dojt have experience
I don't deny there's a few slipped notes and I change the ending, but it's rather pretentious to write what you wrote, and then play it also with a bunch of mistakes in your video... Realising young that people can answer on the internet, even if you may never see them is a good idea - So treat it like you may meet the people? I doubt if you walked past me in Heathrow when I was playing this, even if I looked you in the eye and said 'what did you think?' that you'd just say 'so many mistakes' - So perhaps don't use the internet to play the 'macho guy'... That being said - Cool man. I've taught this to someone in their teens and it took quite a bit of time to learn, so respect to you and keep it up! All the best to you Lucas, but as the cliche goes, people who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones ; )
I respect your answer, i’m not a macho guy on internet i say what i feel i think also in public, but i cant deny this was a beautiful performance made by you and keep up all the good work up and i hope i see another piano performance on here:)
Because I enjoy it? Interesting that on your profile I see you've liked a video of someone putting words to the melody and singing it (a pretty radical change of the song) but a bit too fast is too much!.. For your personal taste... Which isn't mine.
Hello Sam, I'd appreciate if you'd check out my interpretations (of the same musical piece) here: @ @ Do voice out your thoughts by leaving a comment there! Thank you in advance.
Hey Suanne, Sorry, I didn't seem to get a notification for this comment or missed it. I liked it! I also enjoy sometimes just playing the song loud, but in my very inexperienced opinion, if one starts the song loud (it being a pretty soft song in general) then there's only a potential to get quieter, or fractionally louder, as opposed to starting it quieter, so when those more powerful moment come, an increase in dynamics has a greater contrast - E.g if you start on 8, out of 10, it's not as big of a contrast if you'd start on 4/10 (in terms of volume/dynamics) for example. The same applies to pace I think. I write all that in spite of me also doing the same quite a bit here. Can tell that you are leagues in front of me in your playing though, so all the above can be taken pretty lightly/just an opinion. All the best Suanne! I enjoyed it, and that's number one :)
ive been playing piano for 26 years, and most of it was at the highest level (for my age) im sad to agree that he did butcher this song. i will now retreat to the comfort of my study to play it properly otherwise i wont be able to fall asleep tonight.
Been playing 26 years, to the highest level, and you still didn't develop a conceited, condescending ego? Amazing you are! And as if that wasn't enough, surprise surprise - A common characteristic of such criticisms on RU-vid - No videos on one's own channel! Maybe the not being able to sleep is for other reasons ; )
Yes indeed it could be better but why all the hate? Main thing is get this beautiful music into everyday life for the joy of others. Playing in the wild is way harder compared to your study room. Give the man the respect and space he deserves.
