You are a gift! I have tried listening to lots of other piano teachers, but you hit just the right combination of technique and listening (teaching how to listen in context). it feels totally participatory like a friend sitting with you, not like some pretentious savant from on top of the mountain.
I've just spent the whole afternoon learning this. I used to play a lot and had to stop for the studies. The first time i've really played piano in almost 6 years. Thank you so much kind sir. So much.
Just getting back to piano after about 20 years off, and your vids are GREAT! Keep it up, I appreciate your work! You have a great selection of cool songs.
you remind of a fellow i used to take some piano lessons from.....he taught me what i wanted to learn, along with alot of stuff that went over my head, however , I continue to play live music to this day, because of people like you. You move things along fairly quickly, but you are precise.
Hey GREAT TUTORIAL ! This song is So much FUN ... and Really Does INCORPORATE ... the STANDARD SUBTLE ... musical TRICK ... Slight of HAND ... THAT ... HONESTLY when these very BASIC RUDIMENTS are Discovered and Learned ... Open the Doors and Reveal the COMMON PATHWAYS to a Vast Array of SONG EXPRESSIONS ... REALLY Great Job !
Hey Mr. Piano Teacher, I find your tutorials amazingly fine. Thank you. I like your voice, keep on singing. I enjoy your song selections. Such as dancing in the moonlight, moving out and others. May I request some Motown ? And sincerely, thank you.
This one is a bit hard for my second day of piano but it's so nice to try and play a song I love as well as learn the basic lessons. Thanks for another great song tutorial.
i've been just teaching myself piano for the last couple months just kinda messing around and i learned the intro pretty easily but it was from another tutorial video. i felt like yours was a lot more accurate. the other was pretty close but yours was really helpful! thank you so much! this song is ridiculously catchy!! it gets stuck in my head all the time haha time to go work on the rest of the song/refine the intro!
THANK YOU!!!! cant find any other tutorials or sheet music, this tutorial is great!!! you saved me from embarrassment on tuesday!!! thanks haha (need to know it by tuesday)
HI MIKE Thanks for taking time teaching us !!! Was not sure about Eb/d or should it be Bb/d That was the only part for me that was tricky and one part in the intro. Like the sign that shows the chords
I remember it Mike!! LOL..I covered it on guitar!! But I always wanted to learn it on the piano!! Thanks for posting this up! right to my favorites it goes!!!
you.are.such.an.amazing.person. you, sir, make me want to play this piece ten times fold. :) thank you. p/s. you're not boring me at all. your personality is very likeable :).
I'm enjoying your instructions. My only OCD complaint is with every stroke of the B flat key on your keyboard ringing an octave higher than it should. It's Saul Goodman...
I never thought that I could ever play this on the piano, thank you soo much for this video! Appreciate it alot! Continue uploading for lessons if possible, will be looking forward to it! =)
I dont even know shit about playing piano but now i am here watching this just so i can play this song gonna start tomorrow bc can't annoy my family playing at night
good tutorials usually but i watch his hands but im still confused. F minor 7 yes... but he is not hammering the chord he is hitting notes too, i cant figuire it out
If you're waiting for an invitation, I cordially invite you to begin lessons. You have all of UA-cam as your teacher. You can pm me and I'll get you started. It is not as difficult as you might think it is. Guitar is much harder; I play both, and am 61 years old and thoroughly enjoy myself-- you will too!
Nice Mike... Just nice! By the way, I'm gonna get off my ass and get a cam and send ya some vid of me performing your tutes. They are just deluxe. And free? wtf!
Not only does he make it look so easy , but he make u believe u can do this , the sign of a great teacher..
Nice!. Thanks for using our hit!
Guys your song is catchiest one of all time!
No freakin way! KingHavest in the flesh?!
On mikes UA-cam channel?
Hey dude
You are a gift! I have tried listening to lots of other piano teachers, but you hit just the right combination of technique and listening (teaching how to listen in context). it feels totally participatory like a friend sitting with you, not like some pretentious savant from on top of the mountain.
This has been a hit wherever I go, at retirement homes, my school, pretty much anywhere with an accessible piano. Thanks so much!
I've just spent the whole afternoon learning this. I used to play a lot and had to stop for the studies. The first time i've really played piano in almost 6 years. Thank you so much kind sir. So much.
Thank you for a very simple and precise explanation of this chord progression along with basic harmony tips! Very well done!
You explain the chord theory better than anyone
Just getting back to piano after about 20 years off, and your vids are GREAT! Keep it up, I appreciate your work! You have a great selection of cool songs.

What David Saltzmann said is so succinct: Like a friend sitting with you ... I really like your style!!!
Your method of teaching makes learning this tune easy and you don't have to worry about reading music

I wish someone would do a tutorial on the Toploader version!
Would love you to do a lesson on “Here to love you” by the Doobie brothers that has a righteous keyboard intro....just sayin
Dude, msg me. You are my guru!
waath about 9 to 5, dolly´s song???? can you doit the same????
Why would you not teach it in the key that it was originally composed, performed, recorded and released in ? … Why?
OOOH not by toploader? :(
It's easy but you need to do it more slow to learn it fast...

anyone know how to get the sheet for free
If you asked this 2 ears ago when I was In Uni and my transcription skills were great you would be in luck I'll see what I can do though.
