playing the keys from behind is crazyy
Bass in the right hand.
Yep, left-handed so it's much easier !
he's not really playing it. great song and video though.
Unless the keys are opposite from any other piano, looks like he is not actually playing it backwards. He’s doing what he would while facing it normally.
@@freefree5453 not being a piano player, but loving to learn precisely from others, thank you for your comment that opened my eyes.
Since Coldplay is a "happy band" theres a room for something fresh on melancholy hill
Elliot Smith
He used to be called Ben folds
This name reminds someghing, and i think it was good music. I will check it!@@jessicaewers6625
@@jessicaewers6625 I actually found this group because I'm learning to play Don McLean's "Castles in the Air," and they cover it. This is the first video I saw beyond that, I love it, and this comment thread just mentioned Ben and Elliott, two of my personal top two artists of my life.
*doot doot, doot doot do doot doot. doot doot, doot doot do doot. doot doot, doot doot do doot doot. doo doot, do, doot doot do doot doot. doot doot, do, doot doot do doot doot
Seems like this found me at such a perfect time. What a year it has been! I hope the person reading this remembers that there's still so many beautiful songs like this one that you'd love but haven't heard yet. Keep on going, friend.
Uhhhh ... Yeah a Year
Thank you- I just discovered this today. And yeah, what a year this has been!❤
Thank you. Seems like it has been a difficult year for everyone. But everything must pass and will pass. Enjoy life while you still have it and, as you said, keep on going!
The algorithm sent me, my heart made me stay.
i wish to sit with coffee and listen this live in fog.
Thank You
Native German here who left the country 22 years ago. I noticed the Litfaßsäule on the left.... The strange cylinder thing that is used to hold posters and messages for the community. Makes me nostalgic.
What an absolutely wonderful, wintry, end-of-year song.
This is a really good description of the song 🩵
Listening to this on Jan 1 hit different!
This really makes me want to open up my laptop and work on the book I've been avoiding writing. It just put me back inside my head somehow
DO IT!!!
Keep working at it!!!!
That's a great reminder for me to work, also.
Happy Writing ✍️ 😊
Sounds like Coldplay from the old days and I mean it in a good way, love this!
exactly!
walk around with a broken wrist
and a heart in a cage
it knows i can escape from
feel the weight of a perfect day
every moment i have
i’m thinking bout the next one
saw a fox by the railroad
heard my mother’s voice on the phone
making the good of a bad year
take what has faded
with what has been grown
walk around with a broken smile
a joke from a lover
is eating up inside me
feel the weight of a perfect day
the sun on my face
and a dream i know will k!ll me
saw my friends at a party
heard a rеcord that i loved
making the good of a bad year
takе what has fallen
with what’s held above
Thank you!
Reminds me of old Coldplay, sounds great!
What a sweet and simple music video. Thanks for sharing your work with us, this song is beautiful. I really like how the instruments layer up as the song goes on, it feels like slowly wrapping myself in warm blankets. ❤
Delightfully overcast 🌨️
I love the harmonica and the background to your video! Beautiful song! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I just realized after my second time listening and watching your video the piano your playing is backwards. Amazing. And even more brilliant. Whoa!
Damn how has this not blown up yet... this is one of those songs that speaks to you, guarantee this one's gonna be a hit, damn
Puts it into perspective, had a bad year (2024) and can’t see much of the good really but will be thinking about it. Thank you for this song. the Algorithm Gods got me good with song this time.
Little good little bad still ... Going on at least there's easy to get rid of , people
I love this song, it's sweet but also powerful. I can feel a bunch of emotions while listen to it. Although at the beginning I thought it might be a sad song, it has a precise energy that elevates the mood. I don't know how I got here, but since it started I just had to stay. :)
I'm sharing this as much as possible. People need to see this!
Literally my vibe 😭❤️ thanks so much for this masterpiece

Back from rotten 2024 into 2025 itˋs a good Way to start with this peculiar and melancholic Number. You always should try to find the Good in the Bad, if there is any. Sit on a foggy Day on your Balcony and play Keyboards from the other Side. :-)
en chile no me deja reprducir mas musica de ustedes :(
best song i've heard in a while :')
This makes me so happy :) thank you both for making me smile this wide today
Thank You Kyra
This is absolutely beautiful
This is giving me oracle sisters vibes which i love
This made my day!
so happy youtube recommended me this. this is fuckin beautiful
❤
delightful, indeed.
🔥
Love. This❤❤
oh wow this is amazing!
❤ from 🇰🇷
it took me a while to figure out you were playing the keys from behind. wild shit, great job!
edit: took longer to figure out you were BSing the notes lol
Haha, after a couple of takes I got better at it but we chose this one (the first take)
My backwards piano skills definitely need some work 😂
I hope your following grows and grows in 2025! Can't wait to see what you guys do!
been a listener for years, thanks for the perfect fall/winter song!
Thank you
Love this video so much 😍
