I really can't find words for how great this is.
Thanks, TooleyPeter
Yeah, ditto. Love the eccentricity of your own spin.
That's because there aren't any
The run you do around 2:33 is pure liquid gold. I can’t tell you home many times I’ve watched/listened.
Ha! Thanks!
Oh my gosh. Thank you. This is the first Elliott Smith song I ever fell in love with, so it's an important one to me. I'm so glad you covered it. ❤️
Thank you, Isabelle.
That was fabulously done. I love Elliott and I'm sure Elliott would've loved this version.
Thanks Peter, really kind of you to say so.
@@heavypiano This is a fact! You are an extremely talented musician, dont ever stop doing what you do. I could only dream of creating these arrangements of Elliott's songs.
This is just beyond words.
This is true genius. You couldn't have done more justice to the song.
Not for the first time, these Elliott Covers have uncovered some of the musicality of his composition in a unique way. The simplicity and complexity of his chord choice and changes is so idiosyncratic and...genius I guess. You do an amazing job.
I'll never stop coming back to this. Must be my favourite piano arrangement ever. Really brings tears to my eyes. Thank you :)
Thank you!
Been listening to all of your Elliott Smith uploads. Fantastic!
i would give my soul to be able to play this one day..... awesome job man
Thank you! My favorite Elliott Smith song!
Glad you liked it!
I never thought instruments other than guitar would suit this song at all but I was so WRONG..It is beautiful.
I appreciated what you added to the "Say Yes" podcast with your arrangements, excellent work!
Thanks Zach! I thought those podcasts were really well-done.
Beautiful piano covers- so happy i found this channel!
Thank you for doing such a wonderful interpretation of this song. Wow.
Gorgeous. I love that I can hear the live actions in the recording. I love it.
Thanks Caleb.
Elliott Smith has feeling in his music, and your piano covers do a great job amplifying and breathing new life into that feeling in some ways.
Listening for the 7th time this week... love the pensive frenchitude of the intro
What a lovely thing to read! Thank you. :)
Nailed it! Beautifully done... thanks for sharing !
Melancholy, yet still joyful and lively. Splendid preformance and arrangement.
Glorious man, just wonderful!
Thanks MDC.
Another great cover. This is fast becoming my favourite channel.
Thanks, Tom!
this is so good!!! rip elliott, 15 years ago today...
Really appreciate what you are doing here. My favorite piano cover channel.
That's sweet of you to say-thank you, Joshua.
Amazing cover, Elliott would be proud!!! keep them coming! I'm always eager for more of your covers!! cheers from Argentina!
Thank you!
Just amazing as always! Your playing skills are off the charts
Thanks David!
This is absolutely stunning.
Thanks SmittyBot
Once again, this guy smashes it. Thank you!
Thanks for listening, Liam!
This is beyond words. So beautiful
Thanks, SmittyBot
Thank you very much! I really, really like your music!
That's so nice to hear, thanks!
Oh wow ... the second you started dancing all jazz-like up the keys around the 2:40 mark, I knew I wanted to put together a solo arrangement of this song too. I'm sold :)
Thanks Brooke!
That was just perfection. Honestly... totally amazing. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks, Daniel!
Incredible work, Elliott would have been very proud. 💯🙏😍💎
Nailed it. Thanks.
Thanks Matt!
What a beautiful rendition - well done and thank you for posting.
Thanks James.
looking back at your covers, would love to hear waltz #1, one of my all time favorites from elliott smith just a beautiful song
Thank you for uploading this! beautiful and kind of sad...
He got the xoom. He got the baldwin. Panels removed. Jazz meets E-smith.
Genius interpretation. You're incredibly talented.
I have to say this is absolutely amazing to me. Everything is perfect. I can say that was the nicest piano playing I've ever heard. I know it is a bit much to ask but could you play between the bars with this angle. I like your improvisations more than the original and would like to learn your version I can't really see your hands in your current version
That's really nice of you to say. I can put together another "how to" video for Between the Bars if that might help.
That was straight up 🔥🔥🔥
Beautiful work as always!
Thank you, Matt.
This is a beautiful arrangement!
this is heavenly
I'm glad you enjoyed my version.
This is the only Elliot Smith song I know, and I've been waiting for you to upload it :) really beautiful job as always my friend
Thanks straight quavers :)
Beautiful playing!! 👏👏👏

WoW! Brilliant!
I love this.. got a bit teary

Oh, I'd love that.
Thank you so much ❤️
Your Amazing beautiful arrangement
:)
I love your playing so much, thankyou!
Thanks Peter!
This is an incredible rendition of this song. Been trying to transcribe it for two days and my head hurts.
You deserve more subscribers. Seriously.
That's nice of you to say but I'm just one of many pianists out there trying to make music-I'm always flattered by more subscribers but it's not my end goal. :) I hope I brought a little bit of happiness to your day. Cheers!
Totally awesome as always!
Thanks much!
Gorgeous

Do you post/sell uncompressed audio files of any of your covers anywhere? I would buy them :)
I don't generally unless someone asks. If you send me an email joshua@heavypiano.com I can get you a higher-quality file of the music.
@@heavypiano I seriously love your work.As Much Elliot Smith would have loved this.Would it be to much to ask for you to cover one of my two songs I have on You Tube.Shaun Francis - Tearsoaked , the other is Shaun Francis - The Many Flaavours Of Memory.Let me know what you think of them.Thanks.Peace from the UK.
@@peacelovingmusicwarrior5823 Hi friend, thanks for your kind words. I've added your two songs to my request list!
@@heavypiano Thank you so much, will look out for it!
@@heavypiano What did you think of my Tunes? Did you give them a listen? Is this something you would really do?
id love to hear them in piano.Thanks for getting back to me.
First the mic, then a half cigarette
Singing, "Cathy's Clown"
That's the man she's married to now
That's the girl that he takes around town
She appears composed, so she is, I suppose
Who can really tell?
She shows no emotion at all
Stares into space like a dead china doll
I'm never gonna know you now
But I'm gonna love you anyhow
Now she's done and they're calling someone
Such a familiar name
I'm so glad that my memory's remote
'Cause I'm doing just fine hour to hour, note to note
Here it is, the revenge to the tune
"You're no good
You're no good, you're no good, you're no good"
Can't you tell that it's well understood?
I'm never gonna know you now
But I'm gonna love you anyhow
I'm here today and expected to stay
On and on and on
I'm tired
I'm tired
Looking out on the substitute scene
Still going strong
XO, mom
It's okay, it's alright, nothing's wrong
Tell Mr. Man with impossible plans to just leave me alone
In the place where I make no mistakes
In the place where I have what it takes
I'm never gonna know you now
But I'm gonna love you anyhow
I'm never gonna know you now
But I'm gonna love you anyhow
I'm never gonna know you now
But I'm gonna love you anyhow
really damn good. thank you for creating+sharing. sincerely.
Appreciate your kind words. Cheers.
I wish i could sit you in my imaginary restaurant and have you play Celine Deon and Rod Stewart songs all day for brunch @HeavyPiano
🎹🎹🎹
You're amazing! Very very talented, hope you cover all of Elliotts music 😂
this is glorious
Can you please make a 'how to play' video for this song? :)
It's on my to-do list. Cheers.
@@heavypiano Looking forward to it as well. Beautifully interpreted, cheers.
heavypiano are you still planning to do a tutorial on this I really want to learn this or do you have any sheet music for it
Beautiful cover as always man
Thanks Dominic. I would love to see what I could do with The Eraser. Cheers!
Love ya intro! Awesome!
brilliant :)
Woooow
Thanks dennis
beautiful
Beautiful job, I'd love to see the score if there is one
Great arrangement! Thanks for sharing.
I'd like to make a request for Far Leys by Nick Drake
Thanks ralph e! I'll add it to my list.
Oh by the way. I don't know how this piano will sound but some uprights sounds even better on recordings when you put your device behind your piano and record the "backside" because you do not have this "attacking clicking sound" of the hits and a more soft tone. But you need to insulate the area around the microphone that no hall will be recorded. I tried it sometimes. I pull my piano around 30cm away from the wall, and put a pillow between the microphones and the wall of the room to avoid reflections. But i did not uploaded any videos with this technique so I can't show you the result.
I've done that-I prefer the clarity of the sound of micing up front. I usually angle the recorder up a bit so it doesn't get so much hammer attack noise.
can play do mr goodmorning instrumental version too? i loved it
I started learning piano because of these covers! So far I've learned Everything Means Nothing from your lesson video. It was hard! I had to pause the video every other second... I hope it will get easier since I already know a bit of theory from guitar. Do you have any tips for wrist pain?
I'm so glad I helped inspire you! If you're having wrist pain, check the angle of your hands and wrists-they should be in a very neutral position. Avoid all tension. ruclips.net/video/p_6y7MPW_Ek/видео.html
If you keep at it, one day you'll look back and be amazed at how far you've come
wonderful！！
How long have you been playing? I want to learn. Thank you for all your videos.
Hmmm... I've been playing 23 years, ha. Thanks for listening!
What key is this in? Great performance by the way! You've done Elliott proud :)
Didnt he first write on piano then on to guitar? It always strikes me when i hear something like this that it sounds so natural this way. Was he a pianist at heart?
Where does this come from ?
From What ? This expression...from where? Whos
Heart ..that we all feel
wow
I almost cried....
any chance you could put out the sheet music?
