I started listening to Coldplay when I was like 7. As I was playing those slow chords at the end I was thinking of how I grew up listening to this band and all that happened along the way- so many memories. I'm glad you liked it.
I listen to this at night sometimes,and it kind of helps me when I'm in a shit place,and I know that sounds ridiculous,but thank you,it means more than you think
It's over 400K now and is well deserving of every view. Your music contains within it the intent of the authors but also the emotion you bring. Hope you're doing well.
You have demonstrated a balance between technical mastery and astonishing musicality with sparkling brilliance. I can't even begin to express my appreciation for all those long hours of practicing you have clearly done. As a pianist myself I understand how much work and dedication it takes to be at the level you have achieved. I hope that you read this comment because I would truly love to make your day in return for all the days of mine you have made 3
I'm having flash backs of my first Coldplay concert and how amazing it was after being a fan for over 10 years. I'm sure the boys would be very proud to see this if they haven't already. Congratulations your awesome!
You are truly amazing. This has literally taken my breath away. You are so talented and your work has truly inspired me. Keep doing what your doing and don't stop posting videos. :)
This is the most beautiful Coldplay cover that have ever existed, and I mean it. This is absolutely incredible Josiah, you've been blessed with that talent that you have
This is the most beautiful piano cover I've ever seen. I am so glad that you made it, it really is a gift to the world. You're amazing, keep up the good work! (Sorry about my lame english)
Wow! Thank you so much. Just keep playing and don't ever get discouraged--every minute you spend at the piano is progress even if you might not notice it at the time.
Hi Josiah! First, thanks for sharing your talent with all of us! I come back and listen to this and years later it remains as one of my all time favourite RU-vid videos. I just moved to NYC last year and got a Yamaha digital piano for my apt. Is there any possibility that you have composed sheet music for sale? I would love to learn to play this - big 2021 goal! :-) please let me know if there is a way to access the music in some way. Thanks so much!
Definitely without a doubt one of the best covers i have ever seen in my life. You truly have a gift, im not sure why nobody in my town gas heard this but trust me, everybody is gonna hear it. Keep doing this, don't ever stop.
This is really gorgeous! It's great how you bring out the different parts and play so nice and clean. Precise, but still emotional. Of course, the arrangement is top-notch, too! Though I understand you're really getting into your music, I find the semi-circular swaying to be distracting and almost even annoying. Easy fix though, I just minimize the window and listen to the lovely sounds. I get the impression you're improvising at the end, just playing what comes to mind. Is that the case, or did you practice the songs in that order? Either way, it's very impressive!
Josiah, I stumbled upon your channel in the middle of a sleepless night and your playing brought tears to my eyes. You are gifted, and I dare say, inspired. You are a proficient, but much more - I can hear a very free, creative spirit behind your arrangements.... I expect even greater things from you. Thank you for sharing your gift with us all.
Your music is fantastic, Josiah. Both my son and I enjoyed it this morning. Thank you so much for making this. We look forward to listening to more of your renditions.
it's 2018 and I still play this song. The song progression is perfect for lifting your mood when its down and the composition does just that. I miss your covers but I hope you are well:)
The way i discovered it few years ago (a long time actually, more than 7 years in my Coldplay era) and it now pops up as a recommended video The chokehold it had on me, i was just starting playing piano and it inspired me so much to practice This made me miss Coldplay’s music (X&Y and the albums before) imma listen to them again Josiah hope you’re doing fine (saw the last vid was posted 6 years ago) and hope you’re still playing piano :) xx
Josiah, you are really, reeeally, truly gifted. I can't even explain how much your music means to me right now, but this piece is phenomenal. ESPECIALLY from 5:07-5:24! That phrase just gets me every single time. Seriously, just thank you for this piece so, so much.
I really loved your cover and how you play the piano is amazing. And I adored the poster of Coldplay back. Seriously, you're great and the songs you chose to play even more.
This is the first vid I ever watched of urs, and it’s sad that I had to watch u come back and disappear again, I hope ur doing ok Josiah, ur playing still brings me a joy and peace I rarely find
josiah wilkinson This is so beautiful! You really touched me with this performance and I also really love watching you play. As a viewer, I can see that you play with your heart and not your mind! Keep up the good work. Can you say me how you recorded the sound? Greetings, xoxo.
Hi,I recently found you on RU-vid and love your way of playing and what you play.your piano sound is also excellent. I have been listening to you non stop since and really regret there are not more videos of you.i m myself a pianist but not as advanced and I wish I could play as well as you.you re great,please never stop and make new videos :)
What a great comment, Marshall. The main thing is to keep pushing forward with piano and music in general. Studying music theory helped me to name the chords I was hearing in my head. Your kind comments really made my night. Thanks!
