@@jamielees4192 no one else is going to cover this song on piano, and never as good as you did. And even if there was another great piano cover, it still wouldn't be the same charm as yours. 😭😭😭 Even just with the full ending of the song would be awesome. I could see myself waking up to this piano version as an alarm. It's wonderful. Pleeeeaaaase 😭 I listened to some of your other stuff, GG! You're really good. Never stop creating
Isn’t it pretty much a very fitting song to have played at a funeral? I know we all interpret songs, lyrics, and their meanings differently, and so I freely admit that this may just be my interpretation. Everything about this song to me signifies that death can be looked at as a beautiful thing. We go through life in our own ways on our own paths. We are inhibited and restricted by so many things. And so many of us, in an effort just to make it through, become completely disconnected. We build prisons for ourselves out of emotion, ambition, greed and callousness, fear, hate, misunderstanding. But whether you are someone sifting through trash just to eat or you’re a billionaire on his super yacht, whether you’re a lying scumbag of a politician or the soldier sent to war, whether you’re a greedy religious charlatans or a lifelong devotee to peace, hell whether you’re a cat or a dog or a bird - we all meet death. It is something that connects every being. Towards this part of the song, I cannot help but feel it is an admission of how beautiful it can be to free ourselves from the chains of limitation and disconnect from each other. Our corporal bodies return to their elemental states to be used elsewhere and for something new. Our consciousness is thrust into the cosmos and we are truly free. This song is course and heavy, but it is at the same time beautiful.
@@alexbaum2204 definitely the most striking part to me “existence patterns ripped of symmetry as will and fate divide.” We are all just floating in chaos and unable to recognize it, but once you do you can become more kind, more understanding, more empathetic. I feel like it’s more of An acceptance that we are not in control and life is just a ride.
@@jamielees4192 I see you tapping your foot the whole time and it's true, they don't make those faces to look metal, they make those faces because they are deep in thought and trying to keep count haha
This got me choked up🥲Ive loved this song from the day it dropped and it goes to show how beautiful the music itself is when stripped down to its core, it’s still perfect❤awesome job man
@@jamielees4192 I just wanted to message and say I still regularly come back to this, 5 months after finding it haha. What a fantastic thing you made here.
This is absolutely spectacular. The polyrhythm must be so difficult. Every time this part comes on I feel like I float out of my chair, hearing you put it on piano lifts me higher
Because you start to realize that it’s all just feel that breaks the boundaries of 4/4. Once you break through that and just feel the timing, it will be super complex on paper but will just flow from within you (don’t know why that had to be so dramatic lol)
@@jamielees4192 right on keep doing your thin ! This was awesome I'd like to see more meshuggah covers perhaps Animals as leaders if your willing to take on the challange! Do you also have originals ?
Not really using a metronome, the tapping is because the groove dances around the four on the floor beat, without hearing that it sounds weird, so I’m smashing my foot as lid as possible so you can hear the groove lol

Thank you for not cheapening this, or making it more musical esq or anything. Just such an amazing way to highlight how amazing this song is
Thanks mate!
Surprisingly emotional. Love hearing it recontextualised with the piano, beautiful cover!
Thanks!
Piano really brings the true beauty out of any song!
Amazing cover bro
Thanks!
❤❤❤
This was great - I'm in awe, I need more piano Meshuggah
Thank you!
Recording full version soon!
@@jamielees4192 subbed! Look forward to it!
Check Tigran Hamasyan, Piano Djent music with jazz and armenian folk flavour
This is really great. I'm going to agree with the other comments that we need more of this
Cheers mate! I might take on future breed machine when I get home in a couple weeks 🤟
This is still one of my favorite passages from any song on the planet. Sounds awesome here.
Thanks man
Same here! I'm yet to find another piece of music like this one.
Didn't know that song could sound so heartfelt wow 😄
Thanks!
Wow. This is tremendous, but the original song and re mastered are powerfully beautiful imo. One of my favorite parts of any song for sure
This is beautiful. Could we got the entire version?
Thanks! No plans to yet but maybe one day!

It feels like music for when God sees his creation but realizes he cant ever be with them.
I love that!
One of the greatest pieces of music written. Breaks my heart every time I hear these notes
I agree!
Yes!!!
This part is beautiful
Always felt that way for the moment I first heard it. This song is more therapeutic then words can never express.
It really is an objectively beautiful part of the track
This is how i heard this in my head, im a rock guitarist but jazz is my start...beautiful❤
This part of the song is so uplifting like giving hope in the most devastated movements! Thanks for covering this. sounds beautiful 🙂
Thanks! Recording full quality version soon
I came here to headbang ...not cry
Im not crying
Your crying
Awesome job dude !!❤❤❤
Thanks mate!
UPLIFTING straws pulled at POCO MOTO
My favourite meshuggah song
My man... it's probably one of the best
This song hits hard however it's played.
Wow .... absolutely amazing
Thanks!
This is the song I want played at my funeral. The power of meshuggahs compositions is immense, hearing it on the piano like this really shocked me. ❤
Thanks!

@@funknotik "...as will and fate collide"
The only thing missing is the insane headbanging
Haha true
Божественно
Amazing! Your drum-whispers remind me so much of Tigran Hamasyan's beatboxing.
God damn, fuck! This is absolutely awesome. Love your face expressions - you're feeling it mate! Awesome!
Thanks mate! Yeah gotta get right in that pocket
I’m speechless. Please give us a longer clip
Thank you anc it’s coming! Will be a pro album version of an arrangement of the outdo coming in 23!
That was so beautiful! And that is my favorite section of the song 😍. Post more please
Thanks man!
Amazing work. It’s beautiful to hear meshuggah in a classic way. It could almost pass as something like behtoven lol
Thank you!
Excellent cover. I do think that this passage is just so melodic as it uses the Dorian mode.
For some reason I don’t see it as sad? Interesting how everyone hears different things in it, I hear like deep peace, psychedelic peace🤷♂️
Wtf? And more importantly, how tf?
Haha 🤷♂️

How is this even possible? keeping various timing and remembering these complex tunes

Thank you man! Full version coming out this year!
This is FUCKING BEAUTIFUL NO ONE ELSE IN LIFE DOES IT LIKE THIS
Thank you!
Fucking gorgeous.
Add a comment...
I love how anyone attempting Meshuggah needs a metronome.
Those monsters just do it in their heads!!!!!!!
Not really using a metronome, the tapping is because the groove dances around the four on the floor beat, without hearing that it sounds weird, so I’m smashing my foot as lid as possible so you can hear the groove lol
this must have taken some time. Great job it sounds great. probably my favorite Meshuggah moment.
Mine too!
The best example of "less is more" in metal, in my opinion. Love this track!
It’s the best!
I can't believe my ears. Holy shit sir you're amazing
Why thank you!
Sounds like Radiohead
Then your spasming next.
Yup!
incredible work!
Absolutely amazing
Thanks so much!
I fucking love this song to no end and you absolutely did an incredible job here
Cheers! Yeah one of my faves
Love this cover! ❤

Fantastic! Good job 🤟🏻
