    I first heard this in my high school piano class 9 years ago. The teacher asked us to close our eyes, listen to the music and create a story out of it. I won’t tell you the story I formed- but it was quite adventures and … still is. Beautiful music shows us the beauty of life. Thanks to two of my favorite musicians- Alex Boye and the Piano guys. You have always rocked!

    It's been years and I still come back to hear this beautiful song.
    I remember listening to it for the first time, when I was still at highschool, and buying the disc that same day. It grew on me, I listened to it every day, and now, with all due respect for Coldplay, whenever I hear the iconic melody of this song, this is the version that comes up to my mind.
    Such a beautiful interpretation. Thank you, for being part of my life.

    I like how Steven is always smiling when he plays the cello. That's how music is supposed to make you feel. When I used to play the violin as a kid, I wanted to play music from the movies, like star wars. I never got to play what I wanted to, and lost interest. These guys make me wanna play again. They play things that make them happy, not because some teacher wants to play old classical stuff.

I thought he was South African since he refers to the Swahili language in the beginning of this video and I detect a heavy African accent when he sings some words, which is strange if he grew up in England.

    Dear PianoGuys,
    With all of your videos, you have filled my days with joy and pleasure. The first thing I did when i came home today was listen to this song and just relax with a cup of coffee. Thank you for all of the hard work you guys put in the production of your content.
    Kind Regards,
    A.

Alex Boye, this man is so very talented, and them together, they can't go wrong at all! This is so beautiful, that I have caught myself listening to this song over and over again and again. Once you have heard it for the first time, believe me, you will definitely want to hear it again. If you have the time, do listen, I promise you, you will not regret it at all.

    When I was young (around 10 years old) I'd listen to this song almost every day, and fell in love with the Cello part. It really inspired me to pick up the Cello. Which I ended up doing a few years later. I learned for about a year, and then switched to the violin. But I still love both instruments. Almost 6 years later, I still come back and listen to this master piece.

    Increíble que esta sea la única canción que puede hacerme llorar cada vez que la escucho.
    Por allá del 2013 o 2014 cuando esta canción era relativamente nueva, RUclips te la solía recomendar en el inicio del feed cuando no tenias cuenta creada. Mi abuelo que en ese entonces tenia como 69 años, se había comprado hace poco un Smart TV, nunca supo como usarlo pero una vez entro a RUclips y encontró esta canción, le gusto y una vez en una almuerzo familiar la pusieron para que la escuchemos y veamos. Y siempre tengo ese recuerdo patente, no se por que. Hoy mi abuelo tiene Alzheimer y ya no se acuerda de absolutamente nada, ni siquiera de el.
