it is October 2023, still watching this beautiful performance by Scott Davis , thank you for sharing this awesome video! I hope you are still performing!🥰
I had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Davis several weeks ago around 8/2021 and he was kind enough to engage in a conversation. I wish you continued success and me and my Son look forward to more of your Brilliant arrangements.
Absolutely wonderful! Bass line on left hand makes me crazy! The independence between bass line and melody is amazing! Congratulations! Humberto, São Paulo/Brazil.
Es lo mejor que he escuchado y visto de una interpretación de esta canción. GNR debería contratarlo para grabarla de nuevo con ellos. Este pianista es un genio.
INCREDIBLE!! I have been playing piano now for 8 years, and this is one of my favorite pieces. I'm learning to play it right now. Scott Davis, you are amazing!!
what an awesome arrangement of this song! I love how he represents all instruments not just focusing on bas line and vocals... well done. Hope to get to see you perform soon.
Amazing performance of one of my favorite songs by my favorite band of all-time ! You are an extremely talented pianist & watching your videos is a real treat. Thanks for sharing your talent with us on RUclips!
14 yrs ago my new Siamese kitty and I would dance to this endlessly,- 14 yrs later she passed due to vet malpractice, but this heals my heart. Gifted artists do that for us mere mortals. Thank you for your incredible artistry.
Feb 2024, Happy Valentines Day in advance to Scott Davis, thank you so much for this beautiful song, I watch this video so many times. Hope you are well!🥰
Rick Jordon Great musicians who don't let their classically trained egos go to their head play whatever they want. Believe it or not, some of them actually like that music.
This song goes real deep with me. Back to 1989 when I was in tx for drugs n alcohol...I thought and cried every day for missing my son...but the rewards were worth it ...I've been clean of it all ever since!!! My son sent this to me, he knows and remembers too😍😍😍 I also played the "88s" many moons ago🙏🌞😍
Sweet child o' mine is one of my favorite songs. I do not usually care to much for covers, becasue they do not do the songs any justice, but this is one cover that is very good. I will be buying this cd.
dzadam32 Are you guys aware he is playing on a grand and Viki is playing on an electronic piano? I also miss the bass in this version which Viki uses a lot more, making it more heavy metal like in my opinion.
Jacob Leedgaard YOu're right... Viki uses much more bass (IMHO too much), and that's why I prefer Scott to her (however, both of them are naturals...).
when you play with feeling it makes all the difference whether you f up or not...its not always about technique, not to us mere mortals listening...the man is great ..he gives us joy and we dont see the notes...just his heart..thank you Scott
I disagree... Vikas is more detailed, but this has way more passion. Vika hits every note ridiculously hard. And uses the bass end of the piano way too much. This is much more nuanced, in my opinion.
Personally I hate vk's version of the solo, sounds like its missing multiple parts. She plays it much more aggressively which sounds 'better' because it feels more like the rock song it is, but this is a much more 'beautiful' rendition which I think sounds much more beautiful on the piano
Personally I think Scott has more talent, at least he's out there publishing pieces of music and writing original scores, and I own several pieces of his music - so fun to play and you can really tell that he is passionate. This is his career after all.
This song was my first ever RUclips video and this channel the first one I subscribed to! I'm very attached to this song and return occasionally to listen to it. Thank you so much for sharing it here. It's still my favorite. ❤❤❤❤ (By the way: it's 23-10-2024 😉)
I got to see you in Atlanta a few years back. It was great. When you asked if I liked Guns and Roses, I answered that I did not like the delivery. I was not into hard rock and the like at that time. However, I started drum lessons. Then, the entire genre made total sense and now I am a great fan of all of it. What a difference perspective can make. Thank you so much for this piece of music.
O My God!!!! I can't belive it... it is so ..so beautiful.. nothing else to say... I hope, his life will be very long and happy and he will make a lot of amaizing songs like this.... Thanks for the upload!
You have a gift of music that surpassed Liberachi. Our Grandpa wanted me to play like you but i am so excited that one of us is fulfilling his dream. Thank you for being able to share your natural talent with me. I am so honored, and for my Mom too. She sang like a beautiful bitd and my sister Lori has a voice as good as you play the piano. i have to say that your fingers are at home on every single key so they automatically know where to go. AWESOME!
man... i know nothing about piano, i have not ever been in front of a piano and every time im hearing piano my heartbeats raises and i feel like im god, everything is ok and that earth is heaven... i have to learn how to play a piano ... it the top of the world, incredible..
when you play with feeling it makes all the difference whether you f up or not...its not always about technique, not to us mere mortals listening...the man is great
Es ist eines der wunderschönsten versionen dieses liedes die ich je gehört habe. Es liegt nicht nur an diesem großartigen pianisten, es liegt daran, dass es kein Keyboard ist, sondern ein richtiger Konzertflügel. es ist einfach Atemberaubend schön. es vereint können mit perfektion...
it is October 2023, still watching this beautiful performance by Scott Davis , thank you for sharing this awesome video! I hope you are still performing!🥰
It's 2024 and I LOVE the piano way better than the original!🎹🎶💕
Hearing a guitar solo in piano is more than just sound. The beauty in our ears is undescribable...
I never stop listening this piano cover. Scott Davis is terribly awsome
i would listen to this all day too
it goes deep to the heart Timothy
Mohamed Abassor p
Mohamed Abassor That's an oxymoronic statement
I had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Davis several weeks ago around 8/2021 and he was kind enough to engage in a conversation. I wish you continued success and me and my Son look forward to more of your Brilliant arrangements.
one of my favourite songs of my late teens and this version is wonderful .... this Guy plays that piano with passion
Absolutely wonderful!
Bass line on left hand makes me crazy! The independence between bass line and melody is amazing!
Congratulations!
Humberto, São Paulo/Brazil.
I love how he doesn't go into endless repititions. I'd imagine this guy is a great improvisor.
That is absolutely f#cking amazing!!! Almost brings tears to the eyes!
It did me
Es lo mejor que he escuchado y visto de una interpretación de esta canción. GNR debería contratarlo para grabarla de nuevo con ellos. Este pianista es un genio.
INCREDIBLE!! I have been playing piano now for 8 years, and this is one of my favorite pieces. I'm learning to play it right now. Scott Davis, you are amazing!!
When I was young I loved to hear guns, now hearing the peeping comes to give me a certain nostalgia ....
what an awesome arrangement of this song! I love how he represents all instruments not just focusing on bas line and vocals... well done. Hope to get to see you perform soon.
Excellent interpretation. Looks like a great challenge to play that one. Would love to give it a try.
Amazing performance of one of my favorite songs by my favorite band of all-time !
You are an extremely talented pianist & watching your videos is a real treat.
Thanks for sharing your talent with us on RUclips!
Where do I go now?
Hello verified
Magnificent!
I honestly think this is even better than the original. Beautiful.
Amaizing how he brings classical piano to audiences that would never listen to piano music otherwise. And he's a great player and arranger too
solo at 3:35
Nick Div yesssssssss...
the entire thing is solo
Absolutely..... best an my favorite part. This has the repete button stuck on
One of the most amazing performances I've ever seen wow
Simple and great of heart
bass line was absolutely one of the most soothing sounds ive ever heard
Such a tough crowd LOL.. "I'm gonna play some Guns N' Roses for ya..."
*SILENCE*
Probably because they didn't know what to expect.
14 yrs ago my new Siamese kitty and I would dance to this endlessly,- 14 yrs later she passed due to vet malpractice, but this heals my heart. Gifted artists do that for us mere mortals. Thank you for your incredible artistry.
I’m so sorry you lost your beloved Siamese. I can’t help but smile at the thought of 15 years of dancing to music with your kitty ❤️
One day Scott ill be at the level you are here. But until then ill keep enjoying your music :)
One of the few amazing covers of great songs
I hope I can play this good one day
How does it feel now, 2 years later?
Feb 2024, Happy Valentines Day in advance to Scott Davis, thank you so much for this beautiful song, I watch this video so many times. Hope you are well!🥰
Piano-ing this shit out of that solo
what a talented chap and a beautiful version, could listen to him play all day long
Look how his left hand wanders around. Unlike Vika. Vika finds the three keys she likes and BAMBAMBAMBAMBAMBAM for 6 minutes. This is much better.
+Gian Franco Dy No, he is self taught, and doing a better job.
Rick Jordon Great musicians who don't let their classically trained egos go to their head play whatever they want. Believe it or not, some of them actually like that music.
Ehhh as a rock fan I think Vika's version was better. This one is kind of tame
This song goes real deep with me. Back to 1989 when I was in tx for drugs n alcohol...I thought and cried every day for missing my son...but the rewards were worth it ...I've been clean of it all ever since!!! My son sent this to me, he knows and remembers too😍😍😍 I also played the "88s" many moons ago🙏🌞😍
Hannibal lecter playing piano, this is fking amazing XD
Epic. I think what makes it all the more awesome is the grand piano sound projection. Beautiful, truly.
0:40 Legolas has the ring
Watching this video again and again, I love to hear Scott play this !!!!
hey do yall think he should do a tutorial on this? thumbs up or comment if you agree with me if he should :)
beautiful. i find myself watching these same videos over and over because hes amazing.
Its not hard though...good luck!
Sweet child o' mine is one of my favorite songs. I do not usually care to much for covers, becasue they do not do the songs any justice, but this is one cover that is very good. I will be buying this cd.
a lot better then ...vkgoeswild
She's definitely a good pianist, however, Scott is more sensible... VK is a bit rough for me (though I also think she's a great pianist)...
dzadam32 Are you guys aware he is playing on a grand and Viki is playing on an electronic piano? I also miss the bass in this version which Viki uses a lot more, making it more heavy metal like in my opinion.
Jacob Leedgaard
YOu're right... Viki uses much more bass (IMHO too much), and that's why I prefer Scott to her (however, both of them are naturals...).
Jacob Leedgaard sounds classier b/c it's on a real piano
No way, VK transcends mere mortals playing,
when you play with feeling it makes all the difference whether you f up or not...its not always about technique, not to us mere mortals listening...the man is great ..he gives us joy and we dont see the notes...just his heart..thank you Scott
although this is good i think vkgoeswild plays it with more passion
I disagree... Vikas is more detailed, but this has way more passion. Vika hits every note ridiculously hard. And uses the bass end of the piano way too much. This is much more nuanced, in my opinion.
MegaTaurus777 yeah that bass end really gives it off
Personally I hate vk's version of the solo, sounds like its missing multiple parts. She plays it much more aggressively which sounds 'better' because it feels more like the rock song it is, but this is a much more 'beautiful' rendition which I think sounds much more beautiful on the piano

Still watching this video in 2020! Still amazing!
This song was my first ever RUclips video and this channel the first one I subscribed to! I'm very attached to this song and return occasionally to listen to it.
Thank you so much for sharing it here. It's still my favorite. ❤❤❤❤
(By the way: it's 23-10-2024 😉)
His fingers just float across the keys, it's amazing.
pure passion coming out. he probably feels unstoppable when he plays the piano.
I got to see you in Atlanta a few years back. It was great. When you asked if I liked Guns and Roses, I answered that I did not like the delivery. I was not into hard rock and the like at that time. However, I started drum lessons. Then, the entire genre made total sense and now I am a great fan of all of it. What a difference perspective can make. Thank you so much for this piece of music.
Best version.. And its not even close...🔥🔥🔥
One of my all time favorites. Absolutely beautiful
I love this! I’d love to see more videos from that same album. ❤️
It has been added to my favorites ... VERY ARTISTIC, CREATIVE & UNIQUE.
O My God!!!! I can't belive it... it is so ..so beautiful..
