Some people think they're always right Others are quiet and uptight Others they seem so very nice nice nice nice (oh-ho) Inside they might feel sad and wrong (oh no) Twenty-nine different attributes Only seven that you like Twenty ways to see the world (oh-ho) Twenty ways to start a fight (oh-ho) Oh don't don't don't get up I can't see the sunshine I'll be waiting for you, baby 'Cause I'm through Sit me down Shut me up I'll calm down And I'll get along with you Oh men don't notice what they got Women think of that a lot One thousand ways to please your man (oh-ho) Not even one requires a plan (I know) Countless odd religions, too It doesn't matter which you choose (oh no) One stubborn way to turn your back (oh-ho) This I've tried and now refuse (oh-ho) Oh don't don't don't get up I can't see the sunshine I'll be waiting for you, baby 'Cause I'm through Sit me down Shut me up I'll calm down And I'll get along with you Alright Shut me up Shut me up And I'll get along with you
I have scoured youtube for the best piano cover of a strokes song. It's this one. The way the chords and vocal line fit together perfectly while keeping true to the original song is fantastic.
Incredible cover! I’m currently on a search to hire a live pianist to play Strokes songs for my wedding. I sure hope to run into a talented pianist like yourself! 🙂

Alex! I'm working on a video project and I would LOVE to use this in it. I'll buy you a coffee and of course credit you if you're okay with it. Thanks!
Hey Alex Franklin! I love this arrangement of You Only Live Once. It’s exceptionally good! I’m trying to learn it from the video, but I’d have an easier and faster time of it with the midi or sheet music. Do you have a file that you could reply with a link to? Happy to send some money for it via Venmo or PayPal. I couldn’t see another way to message you with my email address via your About page.
Hey man, you might have already tried this but try slowing the video down to like .75 or even .25 speed. Its in the video settings icon. The one that looks like a gear.
this is great!! do you have the midi file? i´d like to transcribe this to sheet music (and give you the credits ofc) and the midi file would be a great help
Unfortunately I do these by ear, which means I don't have any sheets to share. Hopefully the visualiser is helpful to you. If not, I could potentially send you the MIDI file if that would help.
I'm afraid I don't have the time or patience to put together useful tutorials, but hopefully you can get something from the highlighted notes above the video itself.
