15 years ago I was 10, had been playing piano for 2 years at that point. I was finally allowed to make a RUclips account. And I watched you play on that Yamaha p-120. The same exact model my uncle had gifted to me because he gave up on piano. I was amazed that you could do that. Dearly beloved was the reason I started playing piano when I was 8 years old. Kyle Landry was the reason why I became a musician and got a music degree. Now I am a sound engineer. Thanks Kyle!
Holly crap, when I read this I think three things: "Congrats! That's amazing!"; "Kyle is getting old" and "Oh shit, I watched that video, I am getting old too!" haahah
Wah Dearly Beloved is also the reason why I started learning the piano (at very late age). I am only on month 2 so will take me a while to get there :3 but it’s amazing how a game song can be this inspirational to so many people ❤️❤️❤️
This is the first song my newborn son will ever hear, as I sit here in the hospital with him in my arms, both of us listening for the first time. Thanks, Kyle.
I thought you weren't continuing the Dearly Beloved series anymore, so I'm ecstatic over this upload! It's like coming home and getting a big, friendly warm hug 🥺 This rendition, like every other one, is just pure perfection. I'm imagining this as the Dearly Beloved for Kingdom Hearts IV
Still my favourite pianist, still my favourite composition, so happy I can hear it again in 2023 reborn anew. I was around 14-15 years old when I first saw the 2008 version. So much changed in my life. I've grown, I've finished school, university, went up a career ladder, met a fiancee, learnt languages, met friends and said goodbyes, fled the war in Ukraine, saw the world, found a new home, and now I can hear this music again like it never left my heart in the first place. Thank you for always being a part of my soul.
I appreciate your dedication to your Dearly Beloved series each year. Been there from the start and to see us grow older and older each year, we celebrate with this endearing song we all love
Ive been hooked on your music and renditions for over 10 years. But anytime you play these songs that were....are mine and many others childhood, it brings a level of comfort that makes the real world just disappear even if only for a moment. I'm all in and nothing else is around. You do it every time.. Keep it up man.
Was in the Premiere, though I just wanted to say this is definitely a new favorite Dearly Beloved of mine. Lovely modulations throughout the improv and the way you moved through keys is so smooth
Oh god 😢 you always drop these when I need some light in my life. Thank you for this beautiful surprise, this rendition is full of soul, I‘d love to give a standing ovation
Thank you so much for this. Finally a new video with you playing the grand. This feels like a true Kyle Landry once again with the broad variety of styles, the harmonical depth and the fast passages. You cast a big smile on my face! Thank you, Kyle!
This song, this series, truly means so, so very much to me. Thank you so much Kyle, the arrangement was so gorgeous, the sound of the Yamaha piano is beautiful, it's just a perfect song...
My brother and I get together every year to sit down and listen to each of your renditions since 2015. After the first listen we would talk about the old days between us, what parts of older renditions you brought to the current one, and just enjoy the culture and atmosphere you helped us create. I can’t ever thank you enough for everything you have done for us. Don’t worry, we will have your current and past rendition on repeat for the next few weeks 😅.
Oh... wow. I have no words for how stunningly beautiful this is. I just sat covering my mouth with goosebumps running up and down my arms. Thank you so much for this. This is beyond words.
I didn’t understand before why some of your videos received so little attention from RUclips viewers, but with age it didn’t matter to me, I’m just glad that I went such a long way with you, from the moment I bought myself a yamaha p155 to the present, when I got my own acoustic piano. I learned so many melodies in your arrangement: apologize, skyrim (I was the first to write down the notes for this melody and posted it on your forum when it existed. It was my first experience), lilium, the lord of the rings, tansformers, yiruma, pirates of the Caribbean, and many more are in my plans what others have not translated into notes (mass effect, cloud atlas, ...). Thank you very much, Kyle. I really love you
From the first note to the last one you played you made me travel back to my childhood in such a beautifull and nostalgik way. Thank you very much. Couldn´t be better done. Damn what a great highly professional arrangement!!!🤗🥰🏆
I'm following Kyle Landry for almost 15 years now, and seeing him perform all those Dearly Beloved variations is so meaningful to me. It's like as if this song is important to him as much as it is to me, and it makes me feel connected with him and all the listeners in a deep and meaningful way. It has been an honor to accompany Kyle Landry's growth in all these years, I wish all the best to him and all the people he inspires with his music. Cheers from Brazil!
Just hearing the opening bars instantly gave me goosebumps. There's so much passion, love and warmth in your playing, it's a joy to see and hear! Thank you Kyle!! 👏 ❤🎹🎶🎵
I remember when I was young and listening to your old covers of various songs, Dearly Beloved stuck with me though ever since I played it. As a young pianist at the time it inspired me to keep playing. This was way back in 2008, and now I'm in grad school still playing piano on the side. Listening to these every year is nostalgic, and I'm glad you continue with this tradition. Best of luck to you in all future endeavors Kyle.
For the past 2 decades I've listened to your pieces and renditions in all points of my life, highs and lows. Thank you for all you do and take pride in knowing you've spoken to so many through your music. Alright, cheesy aside, this actually brought a tear to my eyes within the first minute.
Hi Kyle, the 2012 Dearly Beloved made such an impression on me as a kid. RUclips algorithm brought me back to this years version and it feels soooo nostalgic! You're a big factor in how and why I became a professional musician. Much love from Belgium!
Your renditions of Dearly Beloved over the years have gotten me through a lot, thank you for being a constant in my life during the times where it felt like nothing was
I think I've been watching your channel for close to 10 years now. Your Dearly Beloved never fails to give me goosebumps. Thank you so much for making the world a more beautiful place with your music.
Randomly popped in my recommendations. Damn it's been like 10 years before I watched one of your Dearly Beloved covers and I felt it was just like yesterday. Thanks Kyle!
Soooo beautiful ❤️🙏 thank you for your music, always. This is the time when I listen all your Dearly Beloved and I am totally in love with the version of 2015 ❤❤❤
This is my favorite rendition of your Dearly Beloved performances throughout the years, thank you for your dedication to this yearly series and keep up the great work 🔥
Man, I remember my sister showing your streams to me on Twitch when I was in a rough patch about 7-8 or so years ago. It calmed me down, I just curled up on the couch and cried my heart out as you played such timeless music. Your playing still moves me to tears after all these years. I hope you’re doing well.
Omg, this is like revisiting a nostalgic moment in life! The very first Dearly Beloved I ever heard was the 2010 version which in my heart will remain my favorite. But gosh, hearing you pump out a new version each year always makes me so emotional. Thank you so much for the last decade of Dearly Beloveds!
Amazing, especially loved how you handled the second half - those transitions/modulations/substitutions or whatever you want to call them fit beautifully. Certainly brought something new to this piece, over the moon you recorded this again.
I look forward to these EVERY SINGLE YEAR! When Christmas passed, I was concerned. I love all of them so much, thank you for doing this every year. It brings back so many memories.
Kyle, we meet again. I remember commenting on some of the first iterations you did of this yearly Dearly Beloved. I only want you to know one thing. You inspire me and many others who follow you. Please do not stop, especially with this yearly tradition. Until next year, so long my friend.
Good to see some new stuff Kyle, haven't seen you in a while! I hope you've been doing well. Don't be afraid to check in with us in the audience and let us know how you're doing, many of us genuinely care about you and would love to hear what you've been up to. Much love to you man 😊
I liked the first video you did 16 years ago... it was the one that made me cry. as an older man seeing this version. Youre a gift on this earth and its a little better with you around
Omg Dearly Beloved 2022.6 you say 😂😂 hahaha. Anqyays, this is really amazing the magic still doesn't fade. Especially when you reminisce and you do these covers everytime. ❤
I didn't know I needed the Dearly Beloved Kyle Landry 2023 style until I saw the thumbnail. Immediately tapped it thinking 'OH HECK YEAH-!' This is epic beyond compare, keep kicking awesome my man. Also, I'd LOVE to see a collab between you and Frank Tedesco. Video game music or classical... or both, hehe.
i'm never in the comments section, but i had to drop one. revisited this vid after having gone through so much strife and growth in my life and i have been brought to tears. i've been watching your renditions of this since the very first one and i have loved every one of them. so much expression and creativity of such a simple melody. thank you for sharing your passion with us
Yes, YEARS LATE!… You were such an inspiration 2014-18. I see you got exactly what you were working toward back then. Such an inspiration and a blessing to see all these years later you received the gift that you TRULY deserved this entire time! Completely different feeling, different sound. You can finally bring every bit of emotion, sound, feeling to life!!!! And FEEL IT ALL! You know what I am saying…congrats Kyle! Don’t know how late I am, but you’re memorable enough to look up to see this!! Incredible!!!! 🎉 If you haven’t covered it recently, ‘Apologize’ was a favorite!
I used to be the biggest fan but since graduating college and getting a job and even having a kid I haven’t been checking out much of your vids Kyle stumbling onto this on my recommended feels like meeting an old friend again thanks for your music Kyle and for the smile and feelings of nostalgia
I only picked up piano to play this and it was because of one of your videos and it still brings me inspiration every time you do dearly beloved over we don't know each other but man I love you and what you do
![Dearly Beloved Collection [Kingdom Hearts] All Versions 2021](/img/1.gif)
It feels like a meeting with an old, nearly forgotten childhood love. Thank you so much for letting us feel it again.
I don't think I've ever heard it described better ❤️❤️
You accurately described how we all felt
Wow you almost forgot?.. it’s like when Kairi forgot about Sora… messed up… 😔
This is exactly it. Thank you so much.

It's like back again with an old friend. I think you make an evolution of Kyle's talents over the years with all the times he's covered this song.

So wonderful to hear more arrangements of this song, even after all this time.
Once again with the dearly beloved key play through, and the blessing of Kyle.
Been following since 2012.

This takes me back man. Not only to the game but to watching your covers when I was a kid. Nothing but good vibes ❤
Stunning and beautiful!!! I had tears in my eyes - and a big smile!❤ Thank you so much for this!
