THE WAY YOU LOOK TONIGHT - Stride Piano Cover by Martycli Piano Guy

This is my cover of one of the most popular jazz standards, Jerome Kern's 'The Way You Look Tonight' written in 1936 and most famously sang to Ginger Rogers by Fred Astaire in the movie 'Swing Time'.
Other famous covers are by Frank Sinatra, Tony Bennett, Teddy Wilson and Billie Holiday, Bing Crosby, Guy Lombardo, Benny Goodman and Peggy Lee. In more modern times Michael Buble, Phil Collins and even Rod Stewart have had a go at it.
My favourite piano version is by Erroll Garner who's piano playing has had a great influence on me although my version is a stride piano version not Erroll's trademark 4 on the floor vamp. You may hear the influence in the right hand though. I particularly like the tempo Erroll picked as it is normally considered a ballad yet it can have quite a bounce to it.
Anyway it's a lovely tune. I have included the people most associated with the tune in my video images and hope you enjoy it. Thanks for watching/listening and please subscribe, share, like and comment in any order, but most of all enjoy!
It's supposed to say Tchaikoffee on the cup on the front of the piano. If your monitor has enough pixels you may be able to read it. It's a feeble joke but enough to make me grin!

Love the sound of old time piano 🎹 playing. I don't know what you call that style 😏 so I just say old time ✌️😂

[@martycli9299]

Thanks Bruce for listening and for your kind comment. It's called 'Stride Piano' which derived from Ragtime. but 'Old time piano' works fine for me! I love the early jazz piano styles particularly 1920s and 30s. That was a time when pianists could play solo and not just in a band and used both hands instead of just the right hand. Thanks again. Best Wishes..... Marty :)

[@ggthepianoman9870]

😂wonderful Martyn smiling like mad from the get-go. Really enjoyed the intro with those chromatic fills. Frustrated that RUclips didn’t send me a notification of this - it’s been doing that far too much lately so apologies for being late to the Kern-game. Along with Porter/Gershwin and Berlin, Kern’s songs are so enduringly beautiful. I was intrigued how you were going to treat it In stride as it’s quite a tricky speed of melodic movement in some ways. Your tempo and feel is bang on 👌🏻 and love the way the drums slowly kick in and then the strings 🎻 for the middle 8 was amazing - Nelson Riddle eat your heart out 😂 About to watch for 3rd time to enjoy your amazing visuals - one of those classic ballads that has been covered so many times of course and Tony Bennett’s version is very high in my preferred and can see he made a video cameo 👌🏻 very enjoyable Martyn and so pleased it is getting views and particularly supportive comments - Many thanks - Gareth 😀

[@martycli9299]

Thanks Gareth. On the notification front, my sister in law was saying the same thing and hadn't been notified for my last 5 videos. It is a bit of a spanner in the works when you're trying to grow a channel.
I've looked at the RUclips analysis and this one is number one in my personal hit parade in terms of number of views within a given time period. I can never work out what I'm doing right - if it's the music, the composer, my contribution, a combination of the above or whatever. If I knew I could repeat it, but as you once pointed out the YT algorithm is a thing of mystery to us all! So I just do what I like to do and hope others will like it too!
Thanks for listening and your helpful and encouraging comments. All the best.... Martyn :)

[@AntonioCastagna]

A well-known jazz standard by Jerome Kern that you play
with excellent technique, creativity and excellent musicianship.
I really appreciate your reference to Errol Garner, an excellent pianist and I understand how he had an influence on you.
I also find the video very beautiful and funny.
Dear Marty, I wish you a nice summer :-)
