great tips.. Just be sure you have an 'excuse me while I go to the bathroom' type line prepared so as not to play for more than 2 mins, otherwise people will be on to you. Also, never, I repeat never, show this to your piano teacher or any piano teacher, or musician.. or any one for over 2 min. Otherwise awesome. The other thing is it tends to sound like music on the cheap on a cruise ship (omg I know who I sound like now, SC, lol) ;-) good fun vid
There should be a comma after "but" and a question mark after "why." In addition, "I" should be capitalized. "Know piano" should be replaced with "know how to play piano."
And 10 fake the piano videos later, he's actually taught you how to play... Fake it at first, you get a reaction, suddenly you wanna 'fake' more and more and before you know it you're learning how to play properly... genius dude 🤘 bravo
Bruhhh this ACTUALLY works!! i just jumped on a piano in a shop and did what you said... people started asking me to play songs... thats where i kinda went off and was like "a real musician never does requests.." and walked off. Edit: God Dayuuum this got serious traction aye?
Now hold on a second... Did you just trick me into learning important preliminary piano skills such as note and chord progression, arpeggios, correct posture and finger positioning, plus three useful exercises I can easily do regularly to start my piano journey? Man this is some 'ol Bullsh*t..
@@seandaniel23 All I can say is THANK YOU! I cant read sheet music, and I have been wanting to learn for years. I get it now! Just have to find a simple keyboard. so excited!
This is quite funny! I mean, I’ve been playing for 15 years now so I know my shit, but seriously quality BS right here 👌👌👌 If anyone is reading this comment, further tips off this vid: 1. He didn’t mention that he was holding down the damper pedal to sustain the notes he played (so basically he could make all these sounds from the piano without holding down all of those notes). Using the damper pedal would make it sound more professional as this man knew. The damper pedal can be found as the very right pedal on the bottom of the piano. 2. The (major) Arpeggio trick he touched on does not work on all of the white notes, only C, F, and G. The other notes require sharps or flats (black notes) to produce a major arpeggio; however, you can also use this trick on the white notes A, D, and E to get a minor arpeggio. 3. Lean into the piano when your playing things soft and lean away when your playing louder to really convince your friends that you are a pro and you know what you’re doing. I know this works because it’s what I do to impress the boys. Seriously though, great video! This comment wasn’t supposed to sound braggy and cocky at all, just helping to further enhance how to BS crazy mad piano skills 😂😂.
"Like you have a deep understanding of what's happening." Me: *Sways back and forth like I know what I'm doing* Me (in my mind): *_I have no idea what I'm doing_*
On a serious note... thank you. My mother played. My uncles plays. My grandfather played as well. Now, I too shall learn to play. I am grateful to you for the encouragement. I’ve yet to be motivated by anyone’s approach to learning from scratch... until now. I appreciate your style. Sincerely.
Still shook that you’re a Sean Daniel fan and still recovering from you saying hi to me 😂 but thank you for all that you do 😊 You’re amazing Garrett 💗💗
Not sure about faking anything though your teaching style is brilliant. Whenever you give a person a way to sound or look impressive right away they will more than likely want more of it and that confidence alone will jumpstart their learning... and impressively will teach them from day 1: improvisation skills! Good stuff...
This video is so good. I’m at my in laws for the holidays. I’ve been staring at their grand piano for years wishing I could play. I just applied the knowledge from this video and within 5 minutes, my wife’s family was popping their heads in the room wondering who was playing because it sounded pleasant. As a guitar player, the idea of physicality is something I’ve been missing. Instantly, I could feel my body naturally swaying at the piano to create unique rhythms. I can’t wait to apply this to my guitar playing. Sean, thanks for the phenomenal lesson!
I should have known that you would not only teach me piano but, you would also figure out my motives for wanting to learn and give me just enough knowledge to fake it. Hats off to you good sir.
Leonardo Severini Actually I read in a book than b# doesn't sound exactly the same as c but it close enough that you are allowed to write it that way if you really want to.
I'm a professional piano teacher, and I am LMAO. You gotta keep it real. --> 7:29 "This will really impress your hipster friends." 🤣You know, just over here playin' some sweet extended harmonies [casually stretch] ...Sidenote...anyone else notice the pumpkin on his desk?
Actual pianist and amateur composer here, I love the crossover. The song I'm working on requires really fast arpeggios with different chords being used
you're* Say it out loud. If the "are" fits then it's you're. "You are the best, Sean!!" See? It fits. From now on, just say it out loud before you type it. Here's an example of it not fitting: "Son, I need you to clean you're room." As you can see, it wouldn't make sense to say "I need you to clean you are room," because his son is not a room, he's a human so you would instead put "your." The correct sentence would therefore be: "Son, I need you to clean your room." Remember, whenever typing "your" or "you're" simply say the sentence out loud to see if "are" fits because "you're" = "you are." You're welcome. Btw I spent the time typing this out due to your implication that you're interested in learning things.
Dude ! You're Killin' it !!! I had to pause the video to comment ! You are cracking me up, but teaching me at the same time ! I believe that is the actual manifestation (and definition ) of "cool". Liked and Subscribed !
Sean - for us beginner/intermediate guitar players and home recording hobbyists, how about a lesson on how to begin to add or sprinkle some piano or organ into a song, mix, chord progression to make it more interesting? Intros, Outtros, pre-chorus - stuff where you don't need to be a grand player (pun intended) but utilize that midi keyboard.
You have helped me a lot. I have an amputated fingerr and have been under the impression that I would never be able to play the piano. I played the saxophone and had to have the F pad custon extended on my 1913 CONN Alto sax. The shop did a great job of finding a similar sax to cannibalize so I don't have a mixture of time elements involved in my instrument. It took a long time to relearn the timing with playing notes when involved in playing with a nubb of a finger. I don't see why I couldn't learn to play the piano now. Thank you!
or just say it wont be as nice. the uniqueness is what makes things beautiful. than you havent only faked being good at playing piano but also that you are poetic. genius.
From a couple of minutes in, all I could think was, "I *like* this guy! He's awesome!" Your fake made piano skill tutorial is the absolute best! It's a B-Sharp presentation on a C-scale instrument!
this is fantastic. guy's a genius, or he just knows something..either way, nobody else is doing this that i know of. talk about nailing it. just played something on a computer keyboard and impressed myself. very happy.
This is the only piano tutorial that I watched all the way through, without skipping, and enjoyed. A lot. I even got out of bed (it’s 11:30 at night) to hop on my keyboard to try this. I just wanted to thank you for making such a brilliant video! I’m subscribed!
I thought it was just me. This is EXACTLY how I fake the piano when I go to someone’s house who has a piano, for I do not. I do tell people after that I faked it. You have a great sense of humor. Also… I say “I’ll play a little F Lydian for ya… it’s mystical” 💫 Good stuff.
Pretend like you’re remembering something.... long ago. How sophisticated. Say you’re playing in Bb. Impress those hipster friends 😎. You my friend had me laughing like mad
I got to say that this whole video is extremely funny. The fake arrogance is just so wonderful to look at while we know he is a kind and funny guy! Thumps up
Sean, if you ever read this - all that I ask is that you fully take the sentiment that I about about to express to you to the depths of your heart and , whatever doesn’t fit, well, may it runneth into your soul : Not all hero’s wear capes, Sean. not. all. heroes. wear. capes. This video should been mandatory viewing for every man, woman, & child on the face of this planet. I ask you : What could it hurt??? I totally learned something valuable from this video - no joke. You, sir, are the real deal. I mean that in all seriousness and I would fist -bump 👊🏼 the ever-living shit out of you if we ever to meet in person. You can write that down. To whom it may concern : I, without so much as a moments hesitation, FULLY endorse & rate this video : MUST WATCH ! A++++++ If you skip this video - you are missing out. Straight-up. Lie to yourself and tell me that I’m wrong , but at least one of us will know the truth, which I shall repeat once more for clarity : If you skip this video, you are missing out. As in : Instantly, you will be lacking. Even if youre not even remotely aware of it. Humans were literally born to learn shit like this. Its what seperates us from, like, goldfish & ferrets, you dig? So, why don’t you all ACT like a human and culture yourself for a spell by watching this video. If “Variety is the spice of life” , then videos like this are the basil, you know? We’re talking foundational life-skills type shit, here. Do I need to go on, or are the great majority of you catching the drift of the unapologetically-HIGH praise that I am happily-heaping onto this video??? Alright, then. Press “PLAY”. I’m not going anywhere until you do. I’ve got all night. Try me.
me: has taken piano for 7 years now. my brain: watch that me: b-but I already know how to play. my brain: still you have to watch it me: uh okay me after the video: well I already knew all of this but yet somehow I feel more sophisticated after watching it.
One of the best videos on the internet! Im lousy on guitar, even worse on piano but I will defenetly make the most of faking my piano skills thanks to this wonderfully helpful video.
This is literally the only piano tutorial that I watched all the way through and enjoyed. It’s 10:30 I even got up out of bed to try these things. I just want to thank you for making such a brilliant video :))
I love this tutorial, it's hilarious! I've already learned how to play piano as a kid/teen but compared with many, I'm preeety average. I understood everything in your video on a technical level - but it's actually really clever! It makes me want to compose something haha... and 'sway back and forth' while doing it 😂

There should be a comma after "but" and a question mark after "why." In addition, "I" should be capitalized.
"Know piano" should be replaced with "know how to play piano."

Well shoot I can't use the damper pedal lol.
Chris Cassin just pretend you are
You can also press on b for a diminished arpeggio, which sounds mysterious and is likely to make you sound smart.
Oh my god 😂😂😂 “To impress the boys” 😂😂 Yes I love it and I want to be your friend 😭😂😂

YEP. That hand position looks painful. Whatever happened to the ARCH?
Andy Mann,
Aka me, I’ve been doing piano since 2nd grade
As a piano player i see right through this
6:01 "then make sure you sway back and forth like you really feeling it, like you really have a deep understanding of what's going on here..." lol :D
Classic.
this is fantastic. guy's a genius, or he just knows something..either way, nobody else is doing this that i know of. talk about nailing it. just played something on a computer keyboard and impressed myself. very happy.
I play guitar and this is exactly how I fake piano. It is uncanny.
Dude, your sarcastic cynicism is a riot! I love watching your videos!
Thanks so much! I'll keep em coming!
“C is kinda basic, so say it’s Bb and play C”
I peed myself on that one... certainly no sophistication here
This is the only piano tutorial that I watched all the way through, without skipping, and enjoyed. A lot. I even got out of bed (it’s 11:30 at night) to hop on my keyboard to try this. I just wanted to thank you for making such a brilliant video! I’m subscribed!
I thought it was just me. This is EXACTLY how I fake the piano when I go to someone’s house who has a piano, for I do not. I do tell people after that I faked it. You have a great sense of humor. Also… I say “I’ll play a little F Lydian for ya… it’s mystical” 💫 Good stuff.
F lydian is always the right move :)
As a pianist myself, *this is genius.*
Thanks so much!
Pretend like you’re remembering something.... long ago. How sophisticated.
Say you’re playing in Bb. Impress those hipster friends 😎. You my friend had me laughing like mad
Wow you taught me something new within the first minute! I never noticed the black keys were grouped in pairs of 2 and 3
......how is that possible?
@@KukkolfKambo Lol I've always just seen the black keys and the white keys as upper keys and lower keys on the piano
I got to say that this whole video is extremely funny. The fake arrogance is just so wonderful to look at while we know he is a kind and funny guy! Thumps up
Thanks so much!
Don't even say you're playing in B flat-pretend to think really hard and say something like "I think I'll play in D Dorian"
The more pretentious the better!
I also tell people I'm playing in B# instead of C :-D
Take it even further and tell them it's C# triple flat :D
Today i shall be performing in F Junior
I will now play in “H sharp flat minor Dorian major”
The mere fact that there are dislikes shows that people cared enough to press the button. Great video!
You know it!
Nobody who knows the first thing about music will fall for this.
Me: *plays piano for six years*
Also me: *clicks video, watches video and tries to attempt what he is doing*
Sean, if you ever read this - all that I ask is that you fully take the sentiment that I about about to express to you to the depths of your heart and , whatever doesn’t fit, well, may it runneth into your soul :
Not all hero’s wear capes, Sean.
not. all. heroes. wear. capes.
This video should been mandatory viewing for every man, woman, & child on the face of this planet. I ask you : What could it hurt??? I totally learned something valuable from this video - no joke. You, sir, are the real deal. I mean that in all seriousness and I would fist -bump 👊🏼 the ever-living shit out of you if we ever to meet in person. You can write that down.
To whom it may concern :
I, without so much as a moments hesitation, FULLY endorse & rate this video : MUST WATCH !
A++++++
If you skip this video - you are missing out.
Straight-up.
Lie to yourself and tell me that I’m wrong , but at least one of us will know the truth, which I shall repeat once more for clarity : If you skip this video, you are missing out. As in : Instantly, you will be lacking. Even if youre not even remotely aware of it. Humans were literally born to learn shit like this. Its what seperates us from, like, goldfish & ferrets, you dig? So, why don’t you all ACT like a human and culture yourself for a spell by watching this video. If “Variety is the spice of life” , then videos like this are the basil, you know? We’re talking foundational life-skills type shit, here. Do I need to go on, or are the great majority of you catching the drift of the unapologetically-HIGH praise that I am happily-heaping onto this video???
Alright, then.
Press “PLAY”.
I’m not going anywhere until you do.
I’ve got all night.
Try me.
The Basil is here!
@Jason Crinklaw You don’t mince words, do you? I wholeheartedly agree. Sean, you are the *MAN!*
My Mom wants me to learn the piano. You made it so simple for me! Thank you! ^~^
Harry Potter: EXPELLIARMUS!
Sean: A R P E G G I O
Sean, you are so funny. I loved watching this video. Thank you for sharing!
I actually learned more than I thought I would. Hell, I learned more from this few minute video than I have from my music teacher in a whole year!
So cool to hear it was helpful!
Sean Daniel omg wow. No one's ever replied to me before I feel special!!!
@@Meep142 he literally replied to everyone I guess
me: has taken piano for 7 years now.
my brain: watch that
me: b-but I already know how to play.
my brain: still you have to watch it
me: uh okay
me after the video: well I already knew all of this but yet somehow I feel more sophisticated after watching it.
One of the best videos on the internet! Im lousy on guitar, even worse on piano but I will defenetly make the most of faking my piano skills thanks to this wonderfully helpful video.
Even if you wont put this to use, gotta give it to the dude, it's a hilarious video.
exactly what i needed, thought i was super cool when i figured out that layered chord thingy when i was a teenager
And you're still super cool!
As a piano player this was the funniest thing I watched in a while 😂
This is literally the only piano tutorial that I watched all the way through and enjoyed. It’s 10:30 I even got up out of bed to try these things. I just want to thank you for making such a brilliant video :))
I love this tutorial, it's hilarious! I've already learned how to play piano as a kid/teen but compared with many, I'm preeety average. I understood everything in your video on a technical level - but it's actually really clever! It makes me want to compose something haha... and 'sway back and forth' while doing it 😂
I feel like he should be saying "Thank you Jesus" every time he makes that extra noise at the end of a sentence.
Omg i can't get over how this guy talks hahahh thanks for.your comment
Boy, that Barney Stinson is an awesome piano player!
... I guess he forgot to "Suit Up"! LOL!!!
Hey oh!
“Remembering something from long ago.” Hahaha yes this does help me, thank you
