Ok , Mr VonSmash. Good work! Your voicings are good as well as your vocals. Please don’t apologize for wrong notes or mistakes. I am still amazed at the magic that comes from just playing thru . Unless you stop or stall out most peeps don’t notice or even care! Well done & donewell.
Thank you, that's very kind. You're right, the small slip ups here and there are nothing to worry about, they usually go away with more time practicing, and if not just makes our versions of the song more unique ;) ✨hehe
Awesome video. A little difficult as a beginner to follow the hand placements of the notes so you have at least one person waiting on that deeper breakdown but Thanks for sharing!
I’m a self taught pianist, I think it’s easier to learn your own hand placements then copying exactly. I learned a bunch of classical songs just by seeing the notes and figuring out the hand placement myself. Just because it’s not done like everyone else doesn’t make it not as good as a professional. Even professionals had to start somewhere.
Great comment, I agree! I did it the same way. There have for sure been times where I've struggled to play certain sections of pieces and then it's been good help to look at how others might do to get ideas if needed to evolve. For instance on Reddit there is a community called /piano where people sometimes upload questions regarding what the "optimal" hand placements might be by submitting a video/photo of them playing. It's a great way when you get stuck but for the most part I also think that you can still find your own ways :) So in the end, the "correct" way of doing things that are not the only way of doing things so don't be discouraged if you're doing it your own way ☺️✨ btw, sorry for the late reply, I missed the notification from your comment until now.
i feel the same way this is the first thing im learning on the piano and overall it is clear but sometimes it is a little difficult to see what keys are being pressed and follow the exact same sound so i need to sit down for more time and follow. some parts are easier tho some were more difficult
Great question from Ricardo , not only finding the cord as there are more than one way to play chords , once finding a chord that you like to suite I like to listen and make sure it sounds right , if it don’t sound like it belongs to the song then yeah find one that does work , I have seen some man eater tutorials and they have notes missing or added and puts me off , this video sounds nice so I’ll try stick with this , sounds nice I like it. Cheers.
Absolutely loved it. Your version is so true to the film. I’m only a beginner but desperately want to learn this. Hopefully someone will make a version a beginner can copy/follow. Thankyou
I'm glad you like it and sorry I haven't provided an easier version of it. :/ Maybe someone will, but I think you might be able to if you follow my playing and where it gets too tricky just apply your own touch to the song and play what works for you! :) I've done that with other songs, sometimes just holding on to a chord is good enough instead of doing the "fancy" broken chords (or what to call them). Also, skip the alternating base in the left hand and just stick with the lowest base note :) With time you can always add these things back in✨ Good Luck!🙌
Von awesome video man , well done I really like this , your voice is really nice to you sang this well , we are not perfect so don’t worry about little hick ups , we all do it learning and I for one can’t sing if my life depended on it shocking voice I have .

@@MrTrMaYes you are absolutely correct. I did say the same mistake one other time in the video too but managed to catch it in the editing so I added the correction in text there, but didn’t catch this first one however. Will look through more carefully next time 😅
@@MrTrMaThank you:) if you see other misses or feedback, feel free to highlight them too just in case I haven’t noticed. Then I know what to do better next time 🙌
Awesome tutorial 🎉 but here’s what is a challenge cos I’m a Guitarrist trying to play the piano😍 and you change the chords too fast , so I have to keep pausing to see the inversions and juggle with left and right hand independence , so I got impatient and left😢, but then as this haunts me I came back and trying to learn the whole piece ! Thanks a lot !
Thanks for the feedback! I’m glad you came back and stayed persistent. I’ve found the same tactic helpful many times, try something that’s hard for me then take a pause for a few days maybe a week and then tackle it again!☺️ I’ll think about it till next time to play each part much slower one time before moving on. Meanwhile I’d recommend using the video player settings in RUclips and change the playback speed and also, in the video description I’ve left a link to the “The best way to learn songs on guitar” (which works equally as good for piano) where you can very easily select parts of the video and have it loop and also slowed down to whatever speed you like! A game changer 🙌✨❤️
@UnlockYourRockStar Hi again ☺️ No that’s okay, you are correct. There are a couple of those mistakes so don’t pay too much attention to what I call all chords 😅 Then there’s a D# chords somewhere that actually should be a D#sus4, but it’s sound alright anyway☺️
Thank you ☺️ I double checked and it’s actually the F# that should be a F#sus4 in the verses that comes directly after the C#m7 (if you listen from 3:57 minutes in the video) 🙌 good luck!
Yeah it is quite a complicated song to play like the original. But I'd recommend to try and simplify it on your own just by playing the chord shapes as I show them or even just having one note in the left hand as a base. So just playing all the notes at one time instead of the individual notes that sometimes is played. It won't make the song super easy but it makes it easier at least :) And with relaxed practice (not too much each time) you'll be able to add back in some things ✨ Good luck!
This is amazing. Thank you so so so much !! Magical. I recently sold my piano. 2nd one. :((. I want to get a keyboard that feels and plays as close to a real piano as possible. Thinking of the Roland FP-10. For around $500 to $600. I’d like someone in that price range. But if there is something a lot better for a little more I’d be game. Looking for feel and sound. And that Roland is not bad for the money. The keyboard in this video sounds nice. Anyone know what it is ? Grazie.
Oh my pleasure! :) I'm glad you liked it. I see, exciting with a new piano/keyboard! When I bought mine that you see in the video (this is the Roland FP-30X ) I was looking at FP-10 as well, also looking a bit at Yamaha P-125, but in the end I went for the FP-30X. Honestly, when it comes to the feeling of playing them I have heard that FP-10 and FP-30X are pretty much identical, the difference comes in the sound. Both sound great but the 30X sounds better. I payed €730 (about $790 USD) for mine new, how ever if I would have found one second hand I would have bought that, but the town I live in is small and no one sold any second hand. If you're wondering the difference, the FP-30X is just the upgraded replacement of the FP-30, see videos below to learn what's upgraded. If you end up buying a Roland keyboard I would HIGHLY recommend downloading the Roland Piano App, it's both in iOS and Google Play Store and it makes it sooo much easier choosing different sounds etc for the keyboard since none of them have a built in screen for sound selection. You can of course select sounds directly on the keyboard but you'll have to have the instruction book ready to remember how to get the different sounds you want. I'm linking two videos to you that helped me before deciding what to get, I'm hoping they'll help you too. Comparing the FP-10 vs the FP-30: ruclips.net/video/_X5VYS733SI/видео.html Comparing the FP-30 vs the FP-30X: ruclips.net/video/YTKWiVNMzi8/видео.html Hope you'll be happy with what you find! Let me know if you wondering something else ☺🙌
I've got the FP-10 and I love it. I was looking at a few options when I picked it. The Yamahas sound a little warmer in my opinion by default, but you can use the app to add sustain and even add sounds, although I haven't done that yet. I ultimately went with the Roland because the attack linearity is more dynamic on the Rolands by far.
Great Cover and tutorial. Would you be able to record a piano (instrumental) version. There is only one currently and its like AI did it so there is like demonic words or something subtle in the background lol. Your piano and recording sounds really good man, You could hit alot of views with a karaoke version. tell you the truth, the person who made the karaoke version probably stole this then edited out the words, which why there is like subtle distortion of words faintly heard. Anyway man, great work. If you record the piano, i could put the words on there for you quickly and you could have the sole video to upload. i just want to sing it to all the maneaters...
Hey thanks for that and great suggestion! I’ll be away from home and computer for a week but will get to it when I’m back! 🙌☺️ I’m sorry I can’t do it quicker.. If you could choose would you have this version as instrumental or the full studio version? The difference is the full version has repeating choruses twice instead of once as I played here. I might do both but will probably not be able to record them on the same day.
@mactabilis6039 Now, finally! I've uploaded my instrumental version now of the full song with lyrics and all. First time ever, and for such a simple video it was a lot of learnings still and it took much longer than expected. haha, so sorry for the wait. Hope you enjoy and please share your thoughts about it, your honest opinion is the best for me to make things better going forward ☺✨ ruclips.net/video/2xSLcXxfqfs/видео.htmlsi=uP5cvljZvnEKWmUN
☺️🙏 I might, we’ll see. But most likely after Christmas in that case though as I’m traveling soon.. I do have a full instrumental though if that’s something you might like :) Maneater (No Hard Feelings) Karaoke - Andrew Barth Feldman | with Lyrics ruclips.net/video/2xSLcXxfqfs/видео.html
Hey, nice to hear! Well I only have the one you see in the video which is the Roland FP-30X (the updated version of the former FP-30) and I payed €730 for it new, though would have bought second hand if I had found one as they are well built and don't really degrade so quickly. There is a comment by @user-ql3xw4qx8v you can find in the comment section here who asked similarly and a couple of other people also chimed in with their thoughts so look for that comment too and the replies. In short, my only recommendations I can give are the one I have or the Roland FP-10 which are the only two I've tested myself and think are great keyboards for the price. The FP-10 is cheaper but still great and see the videos below for the differences. Comparing the FP-10 vs the FP-30: ruclips.net/video/_X5VYS733SI/видео.html Comparing the FP-30 vs the FP-30X: ruclips.net/video/YTKWiVNMzi8/видео.html At the end of the day, in my opinion (unless you're a professional) is the best piano/keyboard is which ever one you can afford. It's easy to postpone buying because there are so many different options, so if you're a beginner or getting back into playing then pick one and start playing :) When you've played it for a year or so then you know more about what you like in a piano and what you might be missing and will look for in the future ☺️
Hey, sorry for not seeing this earlier. I don't know unfortunately.. I took this out by ear from listening to the song and I'm not proficient enough to write sheet music so I can't help you there either. :/ I bet there will be someone who writes some for this song though so keep an eye open (like google every now and then). Although usually I find that people charge for sheet music, not too much though, usually like $3-5 since it takes time and effort to write them I think it's a fair price:)
Can you post the sheet music on one of those sites where I can buy it? Would be happy to pay some money for it so I can just read and play myself at home :)
Hi, I appreciate the request but unfortunately don't have any sheet music from this as I learnt it by ear and I'm too much of a rookie when it comes to writing my own to do that for this song. If this changes somehow I promise to post it and comment here but "don't wait up" as they say 😅 I probably won't be able to.. Thanks again for asking though and hopefully the video helps a bit at least.
Thank you! Sure, I've compiled them here with some notations as well to clarify some bits :) If something is unclear just let me know. Hope it helps! ✨ Intro G#m F#sus4 ->F#sus E chord (I don’t know the name of the chord so please see video at 1:55 for chord shapes) D#m7 -> D# Verse #1 B F#/A# (That means F#-chord in the right hand with an A#-note in the base) F#m/A G# -> G#7 C#m7 F#sus4 (I played F# in the video but it should actually be a F#sus4) D#m7 G#m F# G#m -> F#/A# Verse #2 B F#/A# F#m/A -> F#msus2/A G# -> G#7 C#m7 F#sus4 D#m7 G#m F# -> G# Chorus #1 G#m F# Emaj7 D#m7 -> D# Verse #3 B F#/A# F#m/A -> F#msus2/A G# -> G#7 C#m7 F#sus4 D#m7 G#m F# -> G# Chorus #2 G#m F# Emaj7 D#m7 -> D# Outro (There’s a melody that’s played in the right hand so watch at 21:24 to see what that looks like, but the following are what I believe are the correct chord names. Or watch my karaoke video of this song at 2:48 for a bit smoother and better playing on my part. You'll find the link in the description at the top!) G#m F#sus2 G#m/E F#sus2/D#m -> D#m7 G#m7
I’m playing on a Roland FP-30X :) Bought it about 2.5 years ago new for €725 in Ireland. Not sure many places still sell them new. I’ve been really happy with it and it’s taken me from a sort of a beginner player to more of an intermediate player which is what I was hoping it would help me do. (The most important is playing to improve of course but the piano can help inspire you if you find one that’s around your level/ambition of playing) ☺️
Great question. I believe you are referring to the longer version of the song where he sings two choruses at the end, yes? Let me know and I'll add a short on how to play that specific part! Probably more people that want that too ☺
@@vonSmash yeah exactly. Please do! It would be greatly appreciated. I’ve got this whole video down and i plan to play it for my final senior concert. I would be more than happy to share that with you as well!
@@coppertips Done! Let me know if this is what you were looking for if it was another part :) Couldn't fit it all within 1 minute so I made two parts.. Part 1: ruclips.net/user/shortsASIifNZB0_4?si=DifyPggwRbB6ex7Z Part 2: ruclips.net/user/shortsU8hlH57Z6uM?si=GpGMtdBEfyR6lwuz

But if it helps I have a video for the full song as karaoke on my channel too where you can just watch how I play in one go without all the stopping. And you can always use the playback speed on RUclips to have it go slower if needed ☺️
great feedback, thx! and sorry about that. I'm thinking of possibly re-creating it and make it more clear but since I'm a big rookie at making tutorial videos I'm daunted to do because it takes so much time 😅 I'll let you know if I do though in the comments here!
Thanks for letting me know more are interested! Will update if I manage to created a better version, I’m currently looking into ways of visualizing it better :)
Thanks for letting me know and I'm sorry about that :( Do you have any feedback on what sort of angle would be better? Like more straight from above or closer in or anything like that? ☺️ Please let me know your ideas and I'll try to implement them in the future!
@@loodyxmer3354 thank you! I'll look into it and see if I get the time to re-create the tutorial :) (it's hard though because I'm a newbie when it comes to making them, haha).. Thanks for you support 🙏☺
Yes unfortunately I would say it is a hard song for beginners, a lot of coordination between the hands are needed to play it like the original. But you can still play each chord with all fingers at the same and it will be a bit easier ☺️ Then as you improve you can add in more of the advanced stuff 👌✨
Sorry about that :( I was a little sloppy when creating this. How would you like me to show it to make it easier? Would changing the camera angle work or add something like these piano animations? ruclips.net/video/PkwS4XtRBD4/видео.html Let me know if you have any thoughts and I'll try to implement it going forward ☺️
sorry about that, yeah like I mentioned in the video I created this quite fast and sloppy so some parts I rushed past a bit too fast. Thanks for letting me know though! I'll think about it in the future! If you haven't tried yet, you can try the Looper Tube website I mentioned in the video to select the part of the chorus you want to learn and then use it to loop that part and slow it down. I know it's not optimal but at least you might see what my hands are doing when the video is slowed down and looping 😬☺️ The website is simply www.looper.tube :)

Thank you ☺️ I double checked and it’s actually the F# that should be a F#sus4 in the verses that comes directly after the C#m7 (if you listen from 3:57 minutes in the video) 🙌 good luck!
I want to play this song so bad, I love this song. But it's too difficult to learning for me. 😭
Yeah it is quite a complicated song to play like the original. But I'd recommend to try and simplify it on your own just by playing the chord shapes as I show them or even just having one note in the left hand as a base. So just playing all the notes at one time instead of the individual notes that sometimes is played.
It won't make the song super easy but it makes it easier at least :) And with relaxed practice (not too much each time) you'll be able to add back in some things ✨
Good luck!
bro do the cover that was awesome
oh thanks! I might:)
Cool! Thanks - you sound Swedish.
Busted ;)
This is amazing. Thank you so so so much !! Magical. I recently sold my piano. 2nd one. :((. I want to get a keyboard that feels and plays as close to a real piano as possible. Thinking of the Roland FP-10. For around $500 to $600. I’d like someone in that price range. But if there is something a lot better for a little more I’d be game. Looking for feel and sound. And that Roland is not bad for the money. The keyboard in this video sounds nice. Anyone know what it is ? Grazie.
Oh my pleasure! :) I'm glad you liked it. I see, exciting with a new piano/keyboard! When I bought mine that you see in the video (this is the Roland FP-30X ) I was looking at FP-10 as well, also looking a bit at Yamaha P-125, but in the end I went for the FP-30X. Honestly, when it comes to the feeling of playing them I have heard that FP-10 and FP-30X are pretty much identical, the difference comes in the sound. Both sound great but the 30X sounds better.
I payed €730 (about $790 USD) for mine new, how ever if I would have found one second hand I would have bought that, but the town I live in is small and no one sold any second hand. If you're wondering the difference, the FP-30X is just the upgraded replacement of the FP-30, see videos below to learn what's upgraded.
If you end up buying a Roland keyboard I would HIGHLY recommend downloading the Roland Piano App, it's both in iOS and Google Play Store and it makes it sooo much easier choosing different sounds etc for the keyboard since none of them have a built in screen for sound selection. You can of course select sounds directly on the keyboard but you'll have to have the instruction book ready to remember how to get the different sounds you want.
I'm linking two videos to you that helped me before deciding what to get, I'm hoping they'll help you too.

Hope you'll be happy with what you find! Let me know if you wondering something else ☺🙌
I've got the FP-10 and I love it. I was looking at a few options when I picked it. The Yamahas sound a little warmer in my opinion by default, but you can use the app to add sustain and even add sounds, although I haven't done that yet. I ultimately went with the Roland because the attack linearity is more dynamic on the Rolands by far.
Check out the brand new yamaha P225, the successor of P125. I believe That’s close to a real piano tone. I prefer Yamaha’s sound compared to Roland’s.
Great Cover and tutorial. Would you be able to record a piano (instrumental) version. There is only one currently and its like AI did it so there is like demonic words or something subtle in the background lol. Your piano and recording sounds really good man, You could hit alot of views with a karaoke version. tell you the truth, the person who made the karaoke version probably stole this then edited out the words, which why there is like subtle distortion of words faintly heard. Anyway man, great work. If you record the piano, i could put the words on there for you quickly and you could have the sole video to upload. i just want to sing it to all the maneaters...
Hey thanks for that and great suggestion! I’ll be away from home and computer for a week but will get to it when I’m back! 🙌☺️ I’m sorry I can’t do it quicker..
If you could choose would you have this version as instrumental or the full studio version? The difference is the full version has repeating choruses twice instead of once as I played here.
I might do both but will probably not be able to record them on the same day.
@mactabilis6039 Now, finally! I've uploaded my instrumental version now of the full song with lyrics and all. First time ever, and for such a simple video it was a lot of learnings still and it took much longer than expected. haha, so sorry for the wait. Hope you enjoy and please share your thoughts about it, your honest opinion is the best for me to make things better going forward ☺✨

Please, please, please do a cover vid. The playthrough was so close to perfect. Plzzzzzzz
☺️🙏 I might, we’ll see. But most likely after Christmas in that case though as I’m traveling soon..
I do have a full instrumental though if that’s something you might like :)

What keyboard or piano do you mainly use? I’m thinking of getting one any recommendations perhaps both cheap and expensive recommendations?
Hey, nice to hear! Well I only have the one you see in the video which is the Roland FP-30X (the updated version of the former FP-30) and I payed €730 for it new, though would have bought second hand if I had found one as they are well built and don't really degrade so quickly.
There is a comment by @user-ql3xw4qx8v you can find in the comment section here who asked similarly and a couple of other people also chimed in with their thoughts so look for that comment too and the replies.
In short, my only recommendations I can give are the one I have or the Roland FP-10 which are the only two I've tested myself and think are great keyboards for the price. The FP-10 is cheaper but still great and see the videos below for the differences.

At the end of the day, in my opinion (unless you're a professional) is the best piano/keyboard is which ever one you can afford. It's easy to postpone buying because there are so many different options, so if you're a beginner or getting back into playing then pick one and start playing :) When you've played it for a year or so then you know more about what you like in a piano and what you might be missing and will look for in the future ☺️
Does anyone know where I can get the sheet music for this version (free)?
Hey, sorry for not seeing this earlier. I don't know unfortunately.. I took this out by ear from listening to the song and I'm not proficient enough to write sheet music so I can't help you there either. :/ I bet there will be someone who writes some for this song though so keep an eye open (like google every now and then). Although usually I find that people charge for sheet music, not too much though, usually like $3-5 since it takes time and effort to write them I think it's a fair price:)
Can you post the sheet music on one of those sites where I can buy it? Would be happy to pay some money for it so I can just read and play myself at home :)
Hi, I appreciate the request but unfortunately don't have any sheet music from this as I learnt it by ear and I'm too much of a rookie when it comes to writing my own to do that for this song. If this changes somehow I promise to post it and comment here but "don't wait up" as they say 😅 I probably won't be able to.. Thanks again for asking though and hopefully the video helps a bit at least.
Great tutorial, do you mind telling me the chords, I can barely hear them
Thank you! Sure, I've compiled them here with some notations as well to clarify some bits :)
If something is unclear just let me know. Hope it helps! ✨

Can you put the sheet music online too please ?
Unfortunately I don't have any sheet music :( Learnt it by ear and I'm not good enough to write my own sheet music..
What piano are you using
I’m playing on a Roland FP-30X :) Bought it about 2.5 years ago new for €725 in Ireland. Not sure many places still sell them new.
I’ve been really happy with it and it’s taken me from a sort of a beginner player to more of an intermediate player which is what I was hoping it would help me do. (The most important is playing to improve of course but the piano can help inspire you if you find one that’s around your level/ambition of playing) ☺️
i know it's a little niche, but is there a way you could explain what he's doing when he's holding out the "man" part of the last chorus?
Great question. I believe you are referring to the longer version of the song where he sings two choruses at the end, yes? Let me know and I'll add a short on how to play that specific part! Probably more people that want that too ☺
@@vonSmash yeah exactly. Please do! It would be greatly appreciated. I’ve got this whole video down and i plan to play it for my final senior concert. I would be more than happy to share that with you as well!
@@coppertips Done! Let me know if this is what you were looking for if it was another part :) Couldn't fit it all within 1 minute so I made two parts..
Part 1: ruclips.net/user/shortsASIifNZB0_4?si=DifyPggwRbB6ex7Z
Part 2: ruclips.net/user/shortsU8hlH57Z6uM?si=GpGMtdBEfyR6lwuz
@@coppertips btw, if you record your performance at the senior concert it would be fun to see if you feel like sharing :) no pressure ofc though, gl anyway!
@@vonSmash ruclips.net/video/iZ4V8ige04s/видео.html here it is! i decided to perform it at an in-between concert, but still performed nonetheless. thank you so much for your help, I had a ton of fun practicing and performing as well!
In the verse The F# before the Ebm7 is a F#sus4
Yeah that’s true, one of many misses 😃 Thanks for pointing that out :)✨
do you have sheet music for this??
Hi, sorry I don’t 🙁 I figured it out by ear and I’m not proficient enough to write it as sheet music..
But if it helps I have a video for the full song as karaoke on my channel too where you can just watch how I play in one go without all the stopping. And you can always use the playback speed on RUclips to have it go slower if needed ☺️
Sheet music please?
I don’t have any unfortunately :/ I learned it by ear and I’m too new to read sheet music to write it well enough myself. Sry about that..
Im just struggling to see the exactly which notes youre pressing at some points but other than that great job.
great feedback, thx! and sorry about that. I'm thinking of possibly re-creating it and make it more clear but since I'm a big rookie at making tutorial videos I'm daunted to do because it takes so much time 😅 I'll let you know if I do though in the comments here!
@@vonSmashplease do and reply to this when u do
Thanks for letting me know more are interested! Will update if I manage to created a better version, I’m currently looking into ways of visualizing it better :)
Its really hard with this camera ancle for begginer 😔😔😔
Thanks for letting me know and I'm sorry about that :( Do you have any feedback on what sort of angle would be better? Like more straight from above or closer in or anything like that? ☺️ Please let me know your ideas and I'll try to implement them in the future!
@@vonSmash A midi file would really help a beginner, so we can clearly see what key you've pressed.
BTW Thanks alot 4 your efforts. 🙌🏻🖤🔥
@@loodyxmer3354 thank you! I'll look into it and see if I get the time to re-create the tutorial :) (it's hard though because I'm a newbie when it comes to making them, haha).. Thanks for you support 🙏☺
This seems very difficult to learn as a beginner 😕
Yes unfortunately I would say it is a hard song for beginners, a lot of coordination between the hands are needed to play it like the original.
But you can still play each chord with all fingers at the same and it will be a bit easier ☺️ Then as you improve you can add in more of the advanced stuff 👌✨
I can’t see anything you’re doing 😢😢
Sorry about that :( I was a little sloppy when creating this. How would you like me to show it to make it easier? Would changing the camera angle work or add something like these piano animations? ruclips.net/video/PkwS4XtRBD4/видео.html
Let me know if you have any thoughts and I'll try to implement it going forward ☺️
didn't really explain the chorus at all
sorry about that, yeah like I mentioned in the video I created this quite fast and sloppy so some parts I rushed past a bit too fast. Thanks for letting me know though! I'll think about it in the future!
If you haven't tried yet, you can try the Looper Tube website I mentioned in the video to select the part of the chorus you want to learn and then use it to loop that part and slow it down. I know it's not optimal but at least you might see what my hands are doing when the video is slowed down and looping 😬☺️
The website is simply www.looper.tube :)
