I never listened to a word you never said. I never listened to a word you never said. Like innocence and childbirth, You look just like your mother And you look just like your father. Forgive him our father, Your son is smiling, So lay roses around you. :)
"So raise your hands up high, And let this rain pour on. So raise your hands up high, And wash us away." beautiful cover really brings out the emotion of the song
It was the second song I've ever known from FFAF. The first was Rookie Of The Year on Burnout 3, where I thought "Yeah, this is some nice music." A few years later I search for the band and found Roses For The Dead and I was so much into that band. Nevermind it's emo-shit. I play guitar since ~2007 or 2008 and this was one of my first Hardcore-Songs I learned and after 12 years I still play this song, because it's the reason why I felt in love with their music. Several times I've seen them live and they announced their breakup was terrible for me. Unfortunately I forget to buy the ticket for the farewell-tour. Never saw an sold out concert from FFAF in my region, but it was sold out months before...
89,000 views only at the time of this post... and only 7000 subscribers?!?!? What the hell?!?!? Sean, you are absolutely brilliant and very talented, moreso then our current generation of "artists" and "musicians". You're an inspiration, to myself and everyone who truly loves and understands music.
And before people add comments that this is a cover. Im very well aware of this... but do not discredit the time, effort and work to make such song and transcend instruments
Oh my wow. That is so beautiful. Its like one of those epic songs that takes you away and you go through an emotional journey with the music and you dont want it to ever end and when it does it leaves an empty and longing feeling
Wow Sean... just...wow 🥺 Such a powerful rendition of this song. Introduced me to a new band too 💗 absolutely heartbreaking 💔 but in the most beautiful way. 🥰
I wish more people could see the beauty in metal. Most people are so off put by the vocals, but if they would only open their ears and listen. These videos certainly help :)
Absolutely beautiful... the first time @3:18 hit, I actually had to close my eyes and just take a long, slow breath and do nothing for the remainder of the song... this piece literally stopped me in my tracks.
Honestly I hate people who do piano covers of songs, but there hasnt been 1 song that youve covered that I havent loved. You cover it perfectly while also adding in your own mimor twists at certain times. You are the only piano cover artist Ive ever actually enjoyed. Keep up the good work Sean!
this is so amazing, i'm blown away. i didn't know what so expect, seeing as this is one of my favorite songs, but i could just imagine Matt singing a softer version along with the piano in my head, and it would be perfect. you captured the emotion and the feel of the song pefrectly.
fantástico....fantástico....fantástico....fantástico....fantástico....fantástico!!!!! muito perfeito mesmo....havia tempo que eu não ouvia uma coisa tão bonita com tanta perfeição... continui postando vídeos assim! grande abraço!
WOW, I used to listen to that song so many time years ago, this band is so great, hearing someone doing a piano cover like this is a great tribute for this band! Thank!
Excellent work transposing all this music and making it really appeal to everyone. Totally do all of your cover justice. They sound amazing. Are you taking requests???
I seriously love all your content. I haven't heard the original song to this, but this is one of my favorite covers of yours. Next to "Hollow Crown" of course. Keep it up man.
Faggotry Live I've been listening to his music for over three years, and all I have to say is that I will never complain about his hard work. Ambient music helps me do a lot of thinking.
you really captured the feeling from the original and amplified it to mean even more with your cover! hats off to you and I hope to see more of your work in the future!
The original version of this song made me feel sad and took me to a different place. This version that you have done has taken me to a whole new place I can't even describe, and trust me, that's a good thing. The same goes for your version of Killswitch Engage's This Fire Burns. Thank you for making this, and I can't wait to see what else you do. Keep up the great work.
Great work, dude. The original version is one of my favorite FFAF songs, and what you did to it is absolutely amazing. Also excellent work on the other covers you did. Keep that up.
Would also love to use this as backing for cover, credit given of course. This playing is absolutely beautiful. Mesmerized! Not sure whether it's me being daft but when would you come in with lyrics, I can't quite getting the timing right in my head
I'm so glad I found your channel. I've been searching for some new 'beautiful' music for an age. Nothing quite hit me like the emotion I felt in this song. Please would you do an interpretation of BFMV - Tears Don't Fall?

This will be the one fire you'll be glad i burned you with."- excerpt from my discontinued original works Elemental Furies
10 years later... this piano cover still gives me goosebumps. Amazing!
Thanks Patricia. Much love
Only just checking in here. Same vibes!
I never listened to a word you never said.

stop it... I can't hold the tears...
"So raise your hands up high,
And let this rain pour on.
So raise your hands up high,
And wash us away."
beautiful cover really brings out the emotion of the song
This song and album is criminally underrated. It makes my heart smile to find this!
This song got me through so much as a teenager, literally can't speak right now.. this was amazing
Same. Still helps to this day ❤
me too
This song was written for my mate Lloyd Bird... 20 years gone but never forgotten
Funeral For a Friend just posted this on their own facebook wall, it seems you're getting recognition for this amazing piece of work! Well done!
Takes me back to childhood. This is incredible.

Sean Townsend, your piano playing ability is so soothing to listen to.
Thank you my friend. Just trying to share some beauty with the world. God Bless
Dude, I wish you could give us a video presentation of this. I really wanna see how you go on about your covers, its inspiring!

this piece puts me through memories of my past and all i feel is torn an empty space inside me.
You're not alone, I cry I listen to it. It is completely normal.
Abel Murill Same
Trully unbelievable work...simply perfect
Oh my wow. That is so beautiful. Its like one of those epic songs that takes you away and you go through an emotional journey with the music and you dont want it to ever end and when it does it leaves an empty and longing feeling
Wow, you captured this completely. So good.
Wow Sean... just...wow 🥺
Such a powerful rendition of this song. Introduced me to a new band too 💗 absolutely heartbreaking 💔 but in the most beautiful way. 🥰

Wow magical!
and this is why HardRock / Metal is absolutely stunning ... I completely agree with Remoes02 :)
Stunningly marvelous. Such a beautiful song.
Sounds like such a different song, it's so peaceful and beautiful.
think i may have this at my wedding
or funeral
I could fucken cry right now. This is haunting. This song was powerful and beautiful but to hear it done like this is godly.
Honestly I hate people who do piano covers of songs, but there hasnt been 1 song that youve covered that I havent loved. You cover it perfectly while also adding in your own mimor twists at certain times. You are the only piano cover artist Ive ever actually enjoyed. Keep up the good work Sean!
Thank you Carter. That really means a lot. I'm glad you enjoy my style.
Absolutely love this song and have saw FFAF well over 15 times, this has put a totally new spin on the song. Love it.
this is so amazing, i'm blown away. i didn't know what so expect, seeing as this is one of my favorite songs, but i could just imagine Matt singing a softer version along with the piano in my head, and it would be perfect. you captured the emotion and the feel of the song pefrectly.
I know you've ignored this in the past but please we need sheets bro!
Could you please either sell the sheets or share them with us? It's amazing!
I'd share your sheets ;)

3:18 gets me every single time.
"Hollow Crown- Architects."*
Dartavious Ellis Lots of positivity on this channel, it makes ya feel good
Faggotry Live I've been listening to his music for over three years, and all I have to say is that I will never complain about his hard work. Ambient music helps me do a lot of thinking.
Dartavious Ellis I've created some good short stories with his music in the background. Truly everything he does is a masterpiece
You are very talented. I love your covers.
love this man, making such a good feeling in my home now, thanks for all your awesome music :)
