its a joy to meet a teacher who well knows the importance of creativity, sadly lacking in so many other teachers. Excellent tutorial, thank you so much for sharing your wonderful talent
Thanks so much :D your one of the only people on youtube who go in depth of the piece to show how to play beautifully. I did get confused when you started to show alterations though XD thx again. Keep up the good work!
You are the best online piano instructor I've ever found. You made learning and playing All of me so easy I'm just really excited, I'm working on different versions and it's really a great great song to rehearse thank you very much, you're awesome. Jeff Wilson
Very elaborate and detailed description, fabulous! Personally I have difficulty grasping every detail you explain, mainly because of my level. What I would suggest is a little more structure. First play the part, so beginners don't get too overwhelmed. Then give the more detailed description for the advanced players and people that are interested. So seperate the actual play from variations and theoratical background. (only a suggestion! you are doing great already :D ) What is also great about your lesson(s) is that you put the scheme above and a visualization of the pianokeys you are currently pressing, very helpfull. Keep up your good work ;)
Thank you, because you’re the only person I could find who explained it I am blind, so I am not able to see the screen and I am learning how to play this song
Thank you this is amazing. I love how you have all the chords I need at the top then show us how you play it. Makes it a lot easier. I did have to slow down a bit for the sort of melodic part and I still don't think I fully understand it. But still a huge help.
Great to hear that you liked it! Happy that i could be of help. It's not the easiest song. If you practice enough i'm sure you will get it right! Cheers!
I'm pretty sure the Bb you're referring to at 10:20 that John plays just before the chorus is actually an Eb. Listen again to the recording and you'll hear the Eb clearly right before the chorus. Otherwise, this is a helpful tutorial and seems accurate enough compared to what he actually plays. Thanks for posting.
I thought the tutorial was great! I actually went to your site and I am following your program now! Your method makes a lot of sense. I had been follow a couple of other programs, but I must say after reading through the first 70 pages of your book. It makes a lot of sense and that you tell the reader what and how to practice. That is a great thing! Loving the book! Thanks
Love the video, Excellent job! I think the only minor issue is that you should maybe play an example of each completed phrase after you teach it. So that the viewer can see the connections. I think for a beginning pianist it is a little confusing because its assumed that the viewer gets it. I love that you show what chords will be used, and the graphics on the piano change when a new phrase or example is shown. On a scale of 10, I would give it a 9.5. You may sound Swedish or have an accent but it in no way interferes with the lesson. I Have learned a ton, after stumbling onto your site! Keep it up!
can you please do a tutorial for the soundtrack called Blue Lagoon- love theme. please, I love all your videos. They are so helpful. Sending you greetings from Canada😊
Hi I am Rudy Cortez and I am the person that has watched this video a million times your a great piano player and a helpful teacher but I had a question... can you teach is how to play where did my baby go by John legend its a great song please.
Hi! You're doing a great job and I want to thank you for this tutorial. Can you please explain the walk-up you're doing when you play the Ab(add9)? I can't figure out in which order you're playing the keys.
Do you have the whole piano sheet of this song? Your teaching is awesome but I wish I could practice it by myself after listening to your tutorial. Really a nice job by the way.
hey, the second part where you play the A'A's am- after you come off the B octive - then hit the A's - (before the Eflat) what do you play there --- I keep watching and I cant seem to get it... you played the B part slow and then rushed through the A's then onto the E's.... (after all the beginning triads)
exactly what my issue is, everything else was taught excellently but that last couple of sections was scattered and definitely seemed rushed. i really want to learn this but i can't move onto the chorus until i get this pre chorus down pat lol. if you find another tutorial teaching this part abit better let me know? haha
same here... crazy speed... plus some interpretations with the left hand.. absolutely kicked me out of the mind.. I put playing it again and again.. writing down every damn note to the note stove... its very hard to study like that.. ((
Are you sure he is playing the intro chords four times? When I listen to the song he starts signing after the first "round" and it sounds like, he only plays the chords two times. Your tutorial is really good though :-)
First person I've found who shows the original piece, but I gotta say: Very confusing. I understand the chords but I cannot quite follow the exact of what you are doing as you are not focusing on that, which is fair. But is there a sheet somewhere, or some place that shows the whole thing so I can get to understand how I can play this piece as close to the original as possible? Thanks in advance and have a great day!
Hey !, i just subscribed because i need you to make a tutuorial of " Eminem - Hellbound" because there are no videos for it on youtube. I would appereciate it ! Awesome videos too! :D
great teacher but it got on my nerves when you'd stop halfway through demonstrating something, it's impossible to get something down when you keep stopping at the key point that i'm trying to learn..
i love your tutorials and i learn alot with it! The only thing i dont understand is... why dont you never show the whole song in 1 piece? Without talking in between :):):)
I never use traditional sheet music and actually my whole method is built to teach others how to do the same (play without traditional sheet music). However, I am creating a full sheet using my chord pics (as in the video), might you be interested, that will be available @ my website soon.
***** Seriously, he is scattered in his teaching approach. He can obviously play but assumes everyone watching this video will know all he speaks of and its not the case.
I see what you mean, I'm sorry I was kinda off focus when filming this one and indeed start a little scattered in showing where the part is coming from, harmony wise. Check out the chord pics for the actual part though. Hope that helps! Cheers.
It's not exactly meant for beginners I guess, but just to come as close as possible to the original. If you want to get a better understanding of what I am (an he is) doing, check out my free ebook 'Bare Essential Keys to Harmony' which can be found @ my website (link in the description). Hope that helps! Cheers.
This is a beatufil song and you are an amazing musician, congratulations!

To answer what he means by "add 9" is that an octave is an 8th and u then add a tone (2 semitones) on top of the chord. I hope this helped
That's indeed what it means! Thanks for the comment.
you are are the best piano player and teacher. basically i like your approach. ...Thanks
Thank you, because you’re the only person I could find who explained it I am blind, so I am not able to see the screen and I am learning how to play this song
Great tutorial! I love your approach. As others have said, an 'End result' like you used to do with your earlier videos would help a lot.
Thanks! For everybody that is looking forward to that: I'm making a cover version of this song. Cheers.
Thank you this is amazing. I love how you have all the chords I need at the top then show us how you play it. Makes it a lot easier. I did have to slow down a bit for the sort of melodic part and I still don't think I fully understand it. But still a huge help.

I'M DESPERATELY WAITING FOR THE SECOND VIDEO!!!!!

Keep up the amazing work!
That's good news! Thanks a lot!
I so love this tutorial! I'm already starting to learn this! Thank you so much!!
That is great to hear! You're welcome :)

Thanks so much for that! Awesome to read that you're enjoying Hack the Piano. Cheers, Coen.
Like your way of teaching, very clear.
You are the best sir thank you. Keep them coming. I am a big fan here.

Yes is available @ my website! Cheers.

Thank you for making this! Is the key it is played in F minor or A flat?
are the yellow points on the keys optional to play
Thanks you so much!!!
First person I've found who shows the original piece, but I gotta say: Very confusing. I understand the chords but I cannot quite follow the exact of what you are doing as you are not focusing on that, which is fair. But is there a sheet somewhere, or some place that shows the whole thing so I can get to understand how I can play this piece as close to the original as possible? Thanks in advance and have a great day!
Can someone tell me when i play the pre chorus? like what chords and what words?
The part that starts with the Bbm9. Words: 'my heads under water...'. Hope that helps! Cheers.
if you could do George benson - give me the night it wud be much appreciated
no problem! even a year from now, im only beginner and have a big to-do list my slf lol, thanks for consideration
Coen welke Piano gebruik je, want hij klinkt geweldig
Es genial tu canal :)
Merci!
Hey !, i just subscribed because i need you to make a tutuorial of " Eminem - Hellbound" because there are no videos for it on youtube. I would appereciate it ! Awesome videos too! :D
But it sound so good 8:00
Thank you!
Can you play the full song at the beginning?
Unfortunately due to copyright issues i can not do that anymore.
great teacher but it got on my nerves when you'd stop halfway through demonstrating something, it's impossible to get something down when you keep stopping at the key point that i'm trying to learn..
i love your tutorials and i learn alot with it! The only thing i dont understand is... why dont you never show the whole song in 1 piece? Without talking in between :):):)
Thank you. :)
Unfortunately i can not play the song in it's whole due to copyright issues. Hope you still enjoy it!
Do you maybe have the music sheets for me?
I never use traditional sheet music and actually my whole method is built to teach others how to do the same (play without traditional sheet music).
However, I am creating a full sheet using my chord pics (as in the video), might you be interested, that will be available @ my website soon.
Human by Christina Perri please (:
Same here
5:45
8:00
Gulo pre
It's actually simple explanation but You make it really complicated
can u include notes?
Please try teaching slowly but understood 😇
I hope this isn't a dumb question but what "Key" is this song in?
I assuming it's F minor...
That's right :) And no dumb question at all! ;) Cheers!
Thanks for your reply. Cheers.
Nice job. Yeah?
too fast in 9:30, can't copy!!!
Why is the verse always confusing
because he stops demonstrating something halfway through to say what you could do instead of what he's teaching.
Nigga stop hatin
Wayyy toooo fassstttt
really bad highlight for the black keys, hard to see
Sorry I ment three times :-)
Just say the notes don't make it complicated ha !
yes you know how to play it
but you're so confusing at teaching -___-
***** Seriously, he is scattered in his teaching approach. He can obviously play but assumes everyone watching this video will know all he speaks of and its not the case.
I kinda agree with you sir. :P
+Alexis Roman thats why im here i thiught i was the only one lol
I'm not a native english speaker, never took one piano class and I think it's easy to understand
@Coen Modder I have learned a great deal from you Coen. Thank you so much!
you should teach slower and run over in i have to change to a difirrent vid i dont understand
Near the end went too fast and didn't explain...
you sound a little swedish..
Coen Modder Sounds a little Dutch to me..
Marcos Fernandez As I am :)
WAYYYYYYY tooooo much extra talking and instructions that have truly nothing to do with playing the song
Sir you shouldn't speak too much,it's confusing me, I don't really know how to play piano but learning should make it more easier for us to learn.
play impossible
The piano is good but your teaching is confusing. I don't know if you're teaching me the thing or it's just another inversion i don't know
I see what you mean, I'm sorry I was kinda off focus when filming this one and indeed start a little scattered in showing where the part is coming from, harmony wise. Check out the chord pics for the actual part though. Hope that helps! Cheers.
But you really are good! I go to you first whenever I want to learn something. Like Stay by Rihanna. I learned it from you.
Thank you for that. That's very nice to hear! :)
Horrible for beginners.
