This is BY FAR the best piano tutorial I've seen on youtube, so clear and so easy to follow. I'm a total beginner and I could get it! Please post the rest of the song :) please please please
Thank you so much! I recently moved and have not played my piano in years. As part of my move I got it tuned and its tone is as warm and bright as ever. I feel like I have reunited with an old friend and this tutorial sparked me.
I never get tired of reading comments like this. It makes me feel great to hear that I've inspired some people that I've never met to try out the piano.
I'm glad to hear it was helpful! You can check out more videos like this on my RUclips channel, and I'm also a provider on the new Google Helpouts service.
Thank you soooo much! I just bought my first piano a few days ago, never played and don't have the time/money for lessons right now, so this video is so cool to start with! Thank you!
+Tim Lai I never made a video on the second part of this, but if you schedule an appointment with me, I'd be happy to teach you the rest over live video ont: www.tonerow.com/marioajero
Any chance you can do this for the rest of the song ? I don't play and I'm learning this piece for an audition, and your videos are so helpful and the only one I could follow! I don't read sheet music well to learn the rest of the song. Your Great.
Hi...I did end up buying the music...but the part you showed us was the easy part and I can't get the rest, please record the rest, you're the best teacher!!
My girlfriend is a complete beginner who was (partly) inspired to take up piano because of this song, and this video is an awesome tutorial. Don't denigrate someone's time and effort to make a beautiful piece of music accessible to as many people as possible, just because you personally find something easy. Just saying...
I love this song so much, every time i listen to it i get shivers I have never played piano before in my life, but this song and this tutorial has made me keen to give it a shot Thanks so much!
Alguien más esta viendo este tutorial en inglés siendo alguien que habla en español?? 😉me encanto me re sirvió este tutorial 😻💪saludos desde Argentina 💪😉❤
hey mario - thank u for very smart way of teaching, its wonderful and makes it so easy! please, go on!! why not produce the same way for the hole piece and sell it? let me know, whether u may be will do that. i really hope, to find much more from u here!
@witboek: Two software programs used for the virtual keyboard and notation were called "Internet MIDI" and "Home Concert Xtreme". These are from Timewarp Technologies. The screen capturing software used was ScreenFlow from Telestream.
Many people have varying degrees of exposure to music education. This lesson obviously was not aimed at virtuoso pianists, but people who are more just fans of this music. If I was able to inspire them to try it out on the piano especially if they never touched a keyboard before, then I feel like I've accomplished something in providing a gateway to have them recreate this song at their own pianos.
@helenwazhere: I used a Yamaha Disklavier Mark IV Grand Piano connected to a MacBook Pro computer. The software programs to display the keys/pedals and notation were Home Concert Xtreme and Internet MIDI by Timewarp Technologies. I used ScreenFlow to record the screen captures and did final edits in iMovie '09 for final edits.
thank you so much for such a clear and helpful tutorial :) i could follow yours so much easier than others who posted falling slowly too. you are a great teacher and keep up the good work! x)
I really like how you play this song and I don't know how to read the sheet music,please upload a video and play the whole song.I will be extreemly thankful :D
@Rabidraider: Thanks for buying the sheet music, Mark. If you send me a RUclips message with a private video of the part of the song that you're having trouble with, I'll be delighted to send you back a private lesson video on that part.
@Dana21895 The bass notes are the same in chorus, but the accompaniment is varied in the right hand during the chorus. You can purchase the sheet music to see how that right hand goes during the chorus.
not to be negative, but i think there is a wrong note in this. very easy to follow instructions, and it was a great help, but when the song switches to F chord, should the right hand thumb not be playing an A rather than a G? (second and fourth measures)
Mario, your video is INCREDIBLE! I would love to learn the rest of this song in the same format you did this video. Is there a way that I could pay you for the rest of this lesson? I am not sure how you handle things like that. I would love to learn specific songs, and your way of teaching is simple and effective. I LOVE IT! Please let me know if you are interested.
+Shiann Chambers I give online lessons through this website called "Tonerow". If you would like to schedule an online piano lesson with me, visit my profile and set up a "Meet & Greet" with me at: www.tonerow.com/marioajero
@maisydaze: Thanks for purchasing the sheet music. If you send me a private video of you playing the part that you're having trouble with, I can send a private video back to you giving you feedback and tips on how to make it sound the way you want it to.
thanks for this awesome video (: it really helped!! i like how there's a little piano thing at the bottom too so that we can follow along! thanks again! and if you don't mind me asking...i know you're probably really busy but if you have the time could you do a tutorial on "For the First Time" by the Script! thanks
Hi I just bought the sheet music but I have trouble understanding the bridge bit - any chance to see it being played in a video? Or could anyone talk me through it? :)
This covers just the opening for the song (which does repeat in the verses). The bridge and chorus have some different chords. You can find the rest in the sheet music that I talked about in the video. Also I've given some lessons on the chorus and bridge to some students over Skype or Google+ hangouts.
Wow thanks for that. Ive found it, but the problem is just a beginner.. Wasn't able to read the notes properly. :( Hope you could make a little help and video for that. If only okay but if not I fully understand. Merry Christmas
I would buy it but i stole your version and made my own interpretation. Now i'm selling half of a video to other people and making them buy the rest. . . slight bit of sarcasm there. I love this song thank you dude :) money and music just don't mix. anything else is a bonus. Just like the youtube advertisement . . . . . . love love love :)
Thank you so much Sir for the fast feedback. God bless and Merry Christmas! In any case, do you have a music sheet for the Song "One Friend" by Dan Seals? Been looking here in youtube but no one uploads :( Thank you again.
Hello, I just found this video and was wondering if you could show how to play the rest of the song ? I also went on ur website and the sheet music isn’t available anymore so I was wondering where I could get that ? Thank you :)))
@animalxing284: I try to be nice to everybody, but only spend the extra time to help people that show a strong commitment. If someone's not willing to pay $3.95 for sheet music (of which I only get 32 cents), why spend time making a video for them? Also do some research on "Fair Use" and "Copyright". Then you might understand why I only teach portions of musical works online.
This is BY FAR the best piano tutorial I've seen on youtube, so clear and so easy to follow. I'm a total beginner and I could get it! Please post the rest of the song :) please please please
Yes! Please do! I can't jump from.this wonderful tutorial to those notes alone. Please Please from me too 😊

Thank you! Just downloaded from sheetmusicplus, this song will be a well-appreciated Valentines day ballad to my wife😎
Knowing that these video piano lessons are bringing couples closer together makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.
Thank you so much! I recently moved and have not played my piano in years. As part of my move I got it tuned and its tone is as warm and bright as ever. I feel like I have reunited with an old friend and this tutorial sparked me.

This being my first song, I'm a guitarist and I'm learning piano, being of great help, I am extremely grateful for this video.

Hey, you certainly do! I only wish you would show us the rest of the song too 🙈😊 it's overwhelming when I don't read notes. Please if you have time 🙏😊
i literally love this dude!
That's the best RUclips piano tutorial EVER! Can you please make one teaching how to play any song by Ronnie Day?

It was so easy :)
Buying the sheet music from that website would help support the artists who created this song that you love.

not to be negative, but i think there is a wrong note in this. very easy to follow instructions, and it was a great help, but when the song switches to F chord, should the right hand thumb not be playing an A rather than a G? (second and fourth measures)
i need the next part the most

Hello, I just found this video and was wondering if you could show how to play the rest of the song ? I also went on ur website and the sheet music isn’t available anymore so I was wondering where I could get that ? Thank you :)))
Thanks for bringing that to my attention. I fixed the link on my blogspot, and it should now direct you to the sheet music of this song.
It would be great if you could do a tutorial of the chrous:)

crack!
thanks :)
I have a keyboard, it doesnt have the step things at the button, does it matter?
do I use these chords in the chorus too?
What was the program you were using at 5:37 ?
