Avenged Sevenfold - Exist - Piano Cover 

Synyster Keys

Can we talk about the fact that there's no sheet music? Hes sitting there for 15 minutes, busting out the masterpiece from memory

It's happening it's happening. Everybody stay calm. Everybody stay fucking calm!!!

I'm pretty sure he just created a new universe with that

A7X should see this!

One of the greatest pianists I have ever seen...

The guy's from a7x have to hear this this mindblowing

Stay calm, then play without miss any single notes for 15 minutes. This original song actually, make various feeling for listener. And he carry on those feeling too. He did it very well!! Congratulation!!

Our truth is painted across the sky In our reflection we learn to fly No hand to hold us No one to save us from tomorrow Sailing away, beyond the reach of anyone Far beyond the dreams of everyone No light to follow A shot in the dark Does anybody know? Sailing away, beyond the reach of anyone Far beyond the dreams of everyone High from the heavens I can't see the pain Does anybody care? Think for a moment of all the lives Stripped of their essence before their time We stand to conquer But is there nothing left tomorrow? Sailing away, beyond the reach of anyone Far beyond the dreams of everyone No light to follow A shot in the dark Does anybody know? Sailing away, beyond the reach of anyone Far beyond the dreams of everyone High from the heavens I can't see the pain Does anybody care?

I played this with avenged version in the background and holy shit its a symphony. Awesome job, well done.

Hands down my favorite youtuber/cover artist

I think the most impressive part about this is that you’re staying in time with this song that has all these different tempo changes and stuff and there’s no backing track or band with you. It’s so hard to stay in time like that with just yourself.

Who else liked the video before watching it? :)

God damn

Whoever disliked this has no fingers

the ability it takes to take a repetitive melody at the outro and make it even better with just a piano is outstanding

In my opinion this song is a good contender to be one of the greatest masterpieces ever written

Holy shit I clicked way fast on this video

You are a legend

You have no clue how long I've waited for this... and it exceeded any expectations I had...

...and I have say you did the final part sooooo magic in piano ;)

This is so cool... Next Fermi Paradox please

in paradigm breakdown Matt says that they need to hire a pianist, i think u are worth

DadeBrayant, I’ve listen now twice back to back in its entirety. This feeling I have is like nothing I’ve felt before. I have been a long time subscriber. You helped me through some of my darkest days with your covers of A7Xs’ beautiful music. I returned to your channel today in search of another cover I use to frequent of yours to give me the goosebumps I was craving, and this popped up in my recommendations. I cannot believe it took me this long to get here but I am in tears of joy, thankful I decided to go back to your channel. As the cover progressed I went through some wild emotions. The way you make the music come alive is a powerful thing in my mind and it had a huge effect on me. The first 7 minutes was me questioning everything in life and then at 6:58 I felt like it all dropped off my shoulders leading into the next melody. At this point I felt like I was emerging from a thick forest that I was lost in for years. As if the sun beaming down on me finally gave me some breathing room.. Then at 11:31 I felt as if your music made me flash back every moment in life like a mini movie. Every moment I stressed about, every day I didn’t want to get out of bed, everything that lead me to this video. I feel like I’ve wasted so much of my life dwelling on things that I have the ability to change for the better. The final note of your cover is the beginning of my new life. Thank you for all of your covers through the years. I have been a fan of A7X and DadeBrayant since the beginning. You truly have a talent that the world needs to hear and experience. This is by far your best work, most touching cover, and shows the power that an artist can have on their fans. Keep up the great work. I downloaded all your music on all platforms to support any way I can. All the best, Ryan

You, as Avenged Sevenfold, deserve all the happiness of the world

This is exceptional work my dude. An absolute masterpiece. You deserve WAY more subscribers. 👏👏👏

However big our world is, our hearts, our minds, our outsize atlases, YOUR TALENT is even bigger.

All those days we waited

You have a true god's hands. I hope this never gets off the internet.

I seriously recommend listening to this alongside the original song; it sounds amazing

4:56 I was truly surprised by all the effort you've done there.

Wow... I can't even... Oh well. Now that this amazing piano cover of "Exist" exists, hehe see what I did there? I can now die in peace. Never stop what you do, it's magic!

You need an award dude, these covers are out of this world. I spent weeks trying to copy your ALPOH cover and did ok (way better than I ever thought possible and am super proud of myself) and then I watched yours again and was completely and utterly humbled. You are incredible, please never stop blessing the world with your gift of music.

The fact that this is entirely not what i wanted, but stayed anyways, its still insanley good and with that skill i highly would suggest that you at least try to apply for avenged sevenfold as their pianist. Cuz ya know m shadows does a lot of the piano and ya (Edit) Also even if they dont let u be their pianist u still have tons of fans that will support you

This is the real keyboard warrior

Just bought all 3 of your A7X Tribute albums on iTunes, keep up the EXCELLENT work!

Excellent, Beautiful, vocal-less new take on a great existential song about life, being, self-awareness, awareness of others and our connection to one another, and the whole UNIVERSE

Can we please get shorter version (from 07:00 to end) as Avenged Sevenfold did it with live? Absolutely astonishing. I'd give my kidney away for that.

My favourite song and favourite cover😍👍

This is truly amazing. Thank you for the beautiful interpretation of the grandiose Exist, you gave me a new perspective on this masterpiece.

This makes the song have even more meaning! Gives a different side to the creation of the world and humans evolving to live on it! Top work!

Just when I thought it was impossible for a cover to be better than the original song... this piano genius saves the world

This is like... one of the best things I've even heard. I don't know what to say but you're a talented.

I love your videos since i was a kid (now i'm 25yeard old) you are the best i've ever seen! I CRYED WATCHING THIS i get so emotional it is JUST PERFECT

Holy heck

thanks for birthday's gift!

I’m feeling better today. Your music is my life soundtrack. Well, Avenged wrote the songs, but its your music I listen to more than their albums now. It fits what I need to motivate me in life. Something about the piano that can speak to you on so many levels. Your skill and style is flawless, you deliver it the way I want to hear it, and I can listen to an entire cover album of yours just sitting in my truck at the end of a long day. My most watched video on RU-vid, and most played song on iTunes, by far, since I discovered this cover. I think about what other people in cars around me feel when they hear something like this from my window at a stoplight. Does it speak to them like it does to me? Probably not unless they understand what this is. The work you put in to this plays a role in how it affects me. I showed my wife this cover, she cried when I told her how it made me feel. I’m confident saying that your music is just as important (if not more) to my recovery as anything else I use to help. A psychotherapist, prescription for medication or any other prescribed coping mechanism doesn’t have the impact on my mind like your music does. I envy you to have the ability to create something like this any time you want and be overcome with emotions playing your heart out. But I also thank you for having that ability. I probably wouldn’t be as far along as I am without it. I know I’m not the only person in the world in this situation, feeling this way about your music. You help more than you know DadeBrayant. I’m here tonight for powerful dose to bring me back from today. Cheers, Ryan

As Broken Matt Hardy would say, this is absolutely WONDERFUL YEASS!!!

I come back to your channel and rewatch your videos every single day. Absolutely amazing work. 🤘

I think this is the only, and will remain no matter what ... to be the best piano cover I've seen for a metal song ever, very impressed, new subscriber here lml

Best cover of 2018 likely not to be beaten unless he releases another cover

Perfect....

This guy reserves more recognition. His talent is impressive. Thank you Dade for goosebumps!

And that's the way you made my day! Awesome and unbeatable as expected.

This is absolutely insane. The last few minutes are fire.

I saw this pop up on my feed, and I just had to see it ASAP.

That was the most incredible cover I’ve ever seen

Ik I’m commenting on when this video is 5 yrs old but if you can manage this, cosmic will be out in no time

Perfection, A7X would appreciate this, especially "The Rev"

In his hands, ive now realize how beautiful those composition is

Ohh God Damn, friend you're a beast, imagine this with a symphony will be magnific.

This is the third consecutive years I heard this cover and still amazed🤩🤩

Totally underrated imo

I'm lost for words. You nailed this cover.

What can I say... Maybe "beautiful" is the only word to describe this piece of Art.

This is simply amazing.. the amount of goosebumps i got listening to this are uncountable ... Incredible work man! thank you so much for this

I wasn’t ready for this

STANDING OVATION

I'm crying by watching and listening to this. Fuckin wonderful!!

Simplesmente excepcional, sentir muita emoção através de cada nota que vc colocou nesse piano, avenged sevenfold é uma banda incrível que admito muito e ainda mais vc tocando, parabéns

I still come back to this. Wish I could play keyboard like this.

Excellent and touching. Thank you.

With the new album and all... Idk man I keep coming to this cover. The intro is amazing on it's own. I have it on spotify as well and whenever it comes on I can't skip it so you have stolen many 15 minutes from my car rides. Well done.

Standing ovation is deserved!

And just like that I want to learn how to play piano, I already play guitar but damn this is fire. Such a masterpiece of a cover! I’m beyond impressed

I wish I could give this more than one like. The last bit after the 11:00 mark is especially impressive.

Best one yet imo

Did this take the cake for most difficult song from unbound? PS great job keep up

I have listened to this everyday for 4 months and it amazes me how you do this I love your covers on all of their songs

i could listen from 11:30 to the end of the song on repeat and never get tried of it and it'll still be amazing! great work!

Inexpressible.Doomed.I never thought that this could be played on piano with so much details.I give you two thumbs up and eight other fingers for a perfect ten 👍👍Keep up the good work!

How am I only seeing this masterpiece now?!?!

it's amazing your talent :'v well done..

7:06 is beautiful!

i'll always miss these song that you play

Synyster Gates piano version I loved it

This is the kind of content I subscribed for. Great job :D

I was stunned by your performance, without the slightest mistake on the note, you deserve more subscribers, long live man!🎉

Buenisimo, gran trabajo y dedicacion!

Is it bad that I went to subscribe but already was? Haha I haven't watched his videos in quite some time now but I am thoroughly enjoying going back and watching/listening to these. Love all of DadeBrayant's covers.

Bravoooo...il mio maestro!!!Mi piace molto di più la tua cover dell 'originale! 🤭

I hope you enjoyed playing the third act of the song, it leaves so much space for improvisation and you really nailed it. It feels like a classical ballad at one point.

This is incredible. It sounds fantastic and hes playing like a madman.

This is the start of our universe
