Clocks strikes upon the hour,
And the sun begins to fade.
Still enough time to figure out,
How to chase my blues away.
I've done alright up 'til now,
It's the light of day that shows me how,
And when the night falls, loneliness calls.
(Chorus:)
Oh! I wanna dance with somebody.
I wanna feel the heat with somebody.
Yeah! I wanna dance with somebody,
With somebody who loves me. (x2)
I've been in love and lost my senses,
Spinning through the town.
Sooner or later the fever ends,
And I wind up feeling down.
I need a man who'll take a chance,
On a love that burns hot enough to last.
So when the night falls,
My lonely heart calls.
(Chorus x2)
Somebody who... Somebody who... somebody who loves me...
Somebody who... Somebody who... to hold me in his arms...
I need a man who'll take a chance,
On a love that burns hot enough to last.
So when the night falls,
My lonely heart calls.

Never would have thought this song would sound good on piano until I heard this. Would love to learn how to play this.
Thank you Jesse. There is sheet music for this song at paulwwells.com - I will make a tutorial soon.
@@paulwwells I wish I can do piano better if I had a piano 🎹
“I Want to Dance with Somebody (Who loves me) was of the best songs by the Late Whitney Houston”
I've entered the phase of memorizing how to play Paul's arrangement without the sheet music. All the comments are correct, this arrangement really is that good.
Thank you for commenting Fabricator. I'm really glad you like this arrangement.
Dude, you have a great sense of arranging for solo piano! You are proof that you dont need to cheapen the song with something like a drum machine, because you still capture the feel and groove of the original with just 2 hands. I enjoyed it very much and am learning a lot from you. thanks.
Not sure the viewers realise this chap is actually playing a bass and a piano at the same time.... And it's flawless...Kudos to you Paul!
All I have to say is Paul Wells really knows how to completely mesmerize his listening audience with his profound piano skills. I haven't heard a better rendition of the songs he plays. This man is truly an amazement. I absolutely love his tutorials. The only thing I wished was that his videos were either shot in 720p or 1080i HD. Once again...flat out amazing!!
Paul, this is an example of why the Piano is the most universal instrument of all. You can capture the whole essence of a song and incorporate all of its parts and tones for a full complete picture. That mad bass tho!!🤤😳😳😳
Thank you Terrence. Yes, an orchestra at your fingertips, but it helps when the song gives you plenty of distinctive shape to work with as does this one.
My words exactly. Being a pianist myself, I'm very fastidious when it comes to piano covers on RUclips. If I can play the songs much better myself, why come here? But Paul is simply amazing. His covers never let me down. They contain so many simultaneous layers that Bach and his fugues would be jealous, and Paul's two hands seamlessly jump between them. I especially loves his bass lines and the fact that he always stays true to the details of the melodies though he adds his own touch.
I think “I want to dance with somebody (I love) is one of the best songs by the late Whitney Houston
Thank you - obviously I agree :)
Definitely the best piano version of this! I only wish it was longer :(
Dat bass though, for real. Very nice work
Don't say that. The point is not that you follow anyone else's sound - the point is that you get a deeper appreciation for and tactile expression of a great song in a highly personal form.
imagine early 80s Whitney singing to this exact piano cover with those vocals but instead of the upbeat synthesizer an acoustic version wow, bravo I love this
Oh this is one of those amazing Whitney Houston songs...!

Don't you wanna dance (dance) with me baby?
Don't you wanna dance (dance) with me boy?

With somebody who loves me
Thanks Melissa - reading these words I guess that more now than ever there are a lot of isolated people who know the feeling when "loneliness calls". I hope they will take courage from a song like this.
i just love the syncopation and chords progressions. please keep doing videos like this we all appreciate it. thanks.
Still the best version from all. I have seen many karaoke the are crap. Piano version is always the best!
Its insane to me that you can take these easy to comprehend songs and then play them on the piano, in a way that is too much for my mind to keep up and yet it sounds absolutely wonderful
Can we just please have a tutorial on this please its unreal
Charlie Prin It gives me chills just like Whitney did.
great playing 🎹
Might try and learn this for my music exam, I've been given a really basic sheet but want to advance it. Thanks for doing this video!
You are welcome. If you have any questions please let me know.
I missed the uptuning at the end of the song, but the climax was there anyway. Absolutely awesome cover... the drum effects, the bass lines, the guitar fx and even the vocals are all present. The up-tempo rythm maintained to keep the "wanna dance" feeling!
Thank you midikar. The distinction of the song made it possible to give it a full rendition on keys. I'm glad you like the result.
WOOOW!! Amazing! Thank you very much for it! 🍀🍀🍀🤩🤩🤩
You are welcome Pavlina. Thanks for commenting.
This is the best rendition of this song that I have ever heard! This is absolutely beautiful!
What a arranging.
You play the song so wonderful, it inspires me to play my piano everytime for some music.
That’s SICKKKK
Thanks BabyyJeeJee
Thanks Alison, thanks for liking and subscribing. I don't use sheet music as I can normally figure out an approximate arrangement without it.
Paul - I not only love all the videos you put up, but over the last year or so you've really inspired me to to play the piano much more and get better.
Thanks so much for this :)
@glennbroadway Some firmware programmer sat at a workbench in a windowless Roland research laboratory is very proud of that flashing light.
I was coming up with the crude beginnings oan arrangement for this, not thinking yt would have this kind of quality.
You're streets ahead of my version. WP! 😅👍
Thank you Riichie - I just hopped over to your channel but I cannot find your recording. Please just enjoy your version played on your own piano - that's all I'm doing.
That's what we called talent & great skill :D..
Fantastic.
OUTSTANDING!
Your So talented wish i could play i can only play the clarinet and saxophone
Thank you. Saxophone is an amazing instrument with a range of expressive power which I envy.
Thank you very much
I want more!! Just beautiful :,-) Those last notes, ufff: straight to my soul!!!
this is awesome! Congratulations, your playing style is incredible :) very professional
Beautiful play !!!!!!
Haha... I'm going through your covers and jammin out... that bass is so dope man! It just all works together so well! :)
Wow! Insane
paulwwells, coming from a pianist, this is sublime playing, so fluid and great bass in the left and the right goes without saying.
Paul, You've done it once again. This is such a difficult song to play (as were Whitney's to sing)... Outstanding~!!! - Cheers from NYC~!!!
Awesome, your left hand is strong, dude
Thank you. Yes, I just listened again (it's been a few years) and the song has a really bold bass line which frees up the right hand to dance around more.
This is great! But would've loved to hear the epic key change at the end
Almost too good to be true but true though... magnificent!
Fantastic playing. You really fill in all the spaces!
Paul - you are an amazing player! Thoroughly enjoy watching you play!
Pure genius, I love 💓 it, thanks 🙏
Thank you bbstar - I'm glad you liked it.
You are a Masterful Musician Paul...All Of your Songs are Accurate....you have an Amazing Touch and Sound! I would love it if you could do some Luther Vandross Covers.......
"If only for one night" & "Love won't Let Me Wait"! Pleeeeze :D thank you my friend!
So good.
Thanks for your comment. I have just had a listen and I cannot hear any accompaniment to 'heat' - just the vocal. I know at that point I'm playing the tune but adding an A to the chord.
more recordings paull...you are great!!!!
Holy shit, this is awesome!
This is such an amazing cover!
why does you keyboard sound so god damn amazing. i could never get a sound like that
so good
Thannnnnnnk you
Wow, your amazing
Immaculate!! Absolutely incredible cover. Do you have sheet music for this arrangement?
Wonderful!
This love and care in the playing is perfect, you're incredible, thank you for sharing. Would love to have a tutorial for your rendition.
Thank you James. There is sheet music on paulwwells.com if that's any help.
@@paulwwells thank you so much, I have explored your other renditions as well as your personal music, is making these hard times alot more bearable, thank you again

Stephen Misopapas Thank you. I"m trying to get more songs recorded after a couple of years of slowing down - glad you like it so far.
Awesome!!!!
Great stuff
Would have happened to written out sheet music for your arrangement? It's the best piano arrangement for this song I've found!! I would love to have the sheet music if you have.

Can you do a tutorial on this song?
OMG!!!! You're amazing ❤️
Fantastic👏👏👏👏🏅🙏
Love.
WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Awesome job, love your videos!

Nice one Paul!
WOOOW!! Amazing! Thank you very much for it! :D
Great!
Pięknie
👏👏👏👏👏
Not a big Whitney fan but you've done a great job... again! :)
+paulwwells What piano do you use and what are the settings you use? You are such a great pianist and you feel my gosh. It touches me deep down every time I listen to one of your improvs
Do you sell sheet music of your arrangement!
No I don't sell them. They're free, including this one at paulwwells.com
Brilliant, as usual ;)
Hi! I used this song in a video of mine. I gave you credits, is it okay?
💕 💃
Wow Your Brilliant !! Did you figure that out yourself or get a sheet music for it? :)
@DGSE You think I'm talking about Paul or something?
Piano player here. Wishing you had a version without the keyboard effects. Nevertheless, this is my favorite arrangement I've been able to find on RUclips of this tune played on piano.
Thanks. But what effects?
paulwwells
You've got a split function enabled with the keyboard effect above middle c and a bass effect below it. As a player who wants to borrow from your excellent arrangement, its harder for me to hear what I'm looking for to borrow from the best parts of this.
paulwwells
Actually.. maybe its just the keyboard effect the whole way though. I can't quite work out if a split feature is active. What settings did you play this with?
Jonathan Block You're right. It is split with a bass guitar added below and an electric piano added above. But I doubt they affect clarity. If anything the electric piano plunky transient adds definition to the start of the note although the chorus spreads it across the stereo field, and as for the bass you wouldn't hear anything without the added bass guitar. On a straight piano sound it isn't worth playing the bass line.
@@jonathanblock1359 Dude, that bass he's pushing with his left hand sounds better than most actual bass players I know. Sounds great!
Please go ahead.
Could you please tell me, what's on your 4 zones ? And is there a sheet music available ?
sheet music ?
What is the sound he's using
Elton John in your body ;-)
hi i was wondering i you could send me the noteshow to play it plz thanx
i thought the original key was in F#...or F
+andrew armington This isn't the original key. I think this is a bit higher than the original, or at least it feels higher when singing it.
Really great cover, except you're not playing the song in the correct key. It's written and played in the key of F# Major. Looks like you're playing it in C Major (difficult to know, this is just a guess). But points for the technique and the arrangement. And like a few other comments here, I wish you had played it through to the end ---including the modulation after the pre-chorus.
Hi Sensitive416, thanks for your comment. Back in 2012 I didn't tend to bother to check the original key. Whitney Houston had died four weeks earlier and I wanted to push a cover out quickly so I probably just picked the easiest key. These days I check and match the original key because people want to learn and not just watch.
@@paulwwells You are still my hero for being masterfully talented on the piano (more so than I will ever be). Cheers!
Tutorial?
Even dough its not in the right pitch, it sounds perfectly. Its even easier to sing (half a note down than the original) Sory for bad English. :)
Bogdan Zivkovic What is the original song key? Thanks!
Man, can you make a tutorial of this song in the original key ? Thank you and keep up the good work !
Iakab Szilard What is the original key of the song? Thanks!
in reality, are there original keys for this stuff? Every singer is different and keys must be adapted. I understand the concept of an original key if the song was written for a specific instrument like a tenor saxophone as it has the same range whatever person playing it. In this case, every renderation of the song will be in that specific key fitting the artist's voice.
Nice job! Only thing is it's in the wrong key; the original key is F#, not G (yeah, I know F# is an odd key for a pop song, but that's the real key).
