- Hellooo! I hope you're all having an amazing weekend :D
This is one of my all time favourite songs, both to listen to and to play. I love the message that you shouldn't listen to anyone who says things can't change, or get better ❤️ That being said, I am a bit disappointed in myself that after 10 years or so this isn't substantially better than the last video I did of this song, but it is an improvement and I do like it, and I hope you do too! :)
Please forgive the little mistake at the end! My brain forgot what to do :P

One of the greatest piano pieces. When I first found your chanel my first thought where, he should play the way it is, and after looking thruogh your channel I found out that you did :) You play it so good.
Thanks so much Peter, I'm really glad you like it 😁😁 and yeah! It's such a glorious song ❤️
I'm guessing Bruce Hornsby is a big inspiration ... his influence is growing in your content. Bruce never plays anything the same way twice. Personally I thought your initial cover was unbeatable and still do, but obviously you enjoy experimenting. It's strange how our experience with the piano eventually turns thought into finger motion .... and it gets better as the hours stack up. Apparently the brain gets a new structure so the younger we are the better we are likely to become.
I love your voice and how you play the piano. Go further your way, Henry. Greetings from a little country, Switzerland. 😊
Ah thanks so much again A.L., I really appreciate all your kind words! I hope you're well, and greetings to you from the UK 😊
Wow! What an amazing version of this classic song. Absolutely loved it 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I wish my mother would have put me in piano class rather than cello! What an amazing instrument and you killed this and had a lot of fun doing so! Great video man
Thanks so much! And cello is awesome to be fair :p plus there is never a bad time to learn a new instrument 😛😛🎻🎹
I learned your cover years ago from the MIDI when I was starting out at piano... That's still one of my go-to songs to play!
I prefer the slower tempo of this and you make it sound so full, killer intro as well. I've got a bit of work to do again haha.
Ahhh no way?! I am so pumped that anyone has used the midi to learn it, honestly that makes my day, thank you! And thanks for the kind words, I really appreciate it! Much love 😊❤️
Love that song, and you do it justice!
Now.. a couple suggestions / requests, just 'cause it's free to do so 😛
"For Stormboy", by Rihannon Bannenberg
and.. Jools Holland's piano solo for The The's "Uncertain Smile"
😳 M A E S T R O 🙏🫶
❤ this song, sooooooo great cover 😍
Hey, you play good! Keep up the good work!
Pure joy thanks once again you have excelled
Ah thanks as always Gary!!! I hope you're doing well ☺️
Henry Newbury/ Man of Many Talents!!!! I enjoy your videos my Freind!
Ah thanks so much Gregory, I really appreciate the kind words :)) Take it easy! 😊
This is an amazing arrangement. Knowing the original your playful touch left me saying "Uh, that is incredible!" a couple times.
Ah thanks so much! That really made me smile 😊❤️ I hope you're well!!! 😄
You really feel the music. Big respect!
Ah thanks so much 😊❤️ I hope you're well!
Damn Henry. The looks , the finger skills and THE VOICE !!! 😮😢😂 love it.
Ahaha bless you Matt, thanks so much and I hope you're having a lovely Christmas / holiday 😊
@@HenryNewburyit’s been lovely with the family , the butt of jokes I need to find a partner aha , merry Christmas to you and your family fella xox 💃🏼🕺
Completely amazing… the two camera is the absolute best… thank you and thank you.
Thanks so much Abe, very glad you like it, and the camera setup too! 😊
Marvelous
As always absolutely cracking, beautiful playing and capture the song perfectly. Playing is not about perfection ( I'm and absolute testament to that having just started ) but about how the music makes you feel, you have that in spades.
Aww thanks so much Al, that's probs the nicest thing you could say 😊❤️ I really appreciate it, and enjoy the piano playing!!! ❤️😊🎹
Britans got talent next
This is soo soo good❤
That was such a tasteful interpretation. You're a real inspiration!
Really nice job here. A lot of cookie cutter versions on youtube. This one was different.
Ah thanks very much, I am glad you find it useful :)
Hey!my son your piano sound is very sweet like a sugar and your voice is too sweet so I love you very much.I am your big fan.🎉❤
Thank you so much Salai!!! 😄❤️
beautiful cover! in the future you should try cutting out the audio from the vocal mic when your not singing so the piano doesnt get covered by the clacking of the keys, one of those things that once you notice it you cant unhear it... love the mixing of your vocal stack too! cant wait to hear more
Hi Mike! Thanks so much for the kind words, I am very glad you like it! So I did actually try and use a noise gate but it sounded really artificial, then I just automated the volume to drop when there's no singing but I couldn't get it to sound very nice or natural to take out the whole lot, so there is reduction, but only a few db which is probably not enough :P I will try a bit harder in the next one to cut out the noise because I deffo agree it's really a annoying sound ahaha! 😅😛
Hi Henry, that was just gorgeous, beautiful to listen to, I’ve not heard that song before, but the piano introduction was amazing, and your voice is so good for the track. Many thanks Henry...🍷🍷
Ah thanks so much Steve! It's definitely one of my favourites ☺️☺️ I'm very glad you like it, and glad you think my voice suits it :) I hope you're having a lovely weekend my friend!!! 🥂
Nuanced, subtle…and OUTSTANDING. High level. Enjoyed it immensely …from the U.S.
Eu sou da época que The way It is estorou em todas as rádios, 1985, não tinha uma FM que não tocava ela, eu por sorte consegui o Song book partitura 5 of the best for piano, na época não tinha nem internet, celular, tudo era difícil, agora ele cria outra roupagem pra música que ficou beautiful, infelizmente a safra desse nipe e calibre não vamos ter mais! Essa música não envelhece nunca, e vem ele e cria outro arranjo monstro em cima!
Thank you for posting this!!!! (I know I requested it a while back and I think you said you were not happy with the vocals?) It's simply amazing how you arranged and put your own spin on this song so beautifully! Absolutely loved it (still haven't even finished watching it as I'm typing LOL)!!!
Ah thanks so much Chad, I'm really glad you like it! Bruce Hornsby seems to play it differently every time, which is so cool to watch, so hopefully I did it a bit different still :) thanks again and I hope you're doing well!!! ☺️☺️
@@HenryNewburyI'm doing well thanks! Hope you are too!😊
loved this man, really amazing, thank you for sharing this awesome rendition!
Beautiful, and I never felt the undercurrent of a political message until I heard this. Hits home. Well done, Henry. .
Bravo, complimenti👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Grazie mille! 😊😊😊😊
Nicely done, sir!
Thanks so much David! 😊
"a bit out of practice..." He says 🤥. The most relative comment ever 😅.
Jeez, Bruce Hornsby would be proud of that.
It seems to beautifully suit your own flair, too, and those delicious hammer ons...wow.
Listened again immediately.
Thank you. Please keep sharing 🙌
Ah thanks so much Jai!!! That really means a lot, and I'm very glad that you like it :)) Take it easy!
Que maravilha!
Obrigado Lara!!! :)
