@@SirZachariahlll this was probably just a joke, but a keyboard will never compare to an actual piano. you can't emulate the shimmering of physical strings interacting and resonating with each other
Just finished watching AKA , & the ending made me come find this. Never heard this or any of the others before but after just listening to every version on UA-cam, this one takes the cake without a doubt.
I’ve always preferred original nin version over the Johnny cash cover. However this arrangement is amazing, actually one of the best piano covers of this song on UA-cam. Wish I could listen to this on Spotify.
@@joshcohenmusic hey no pressure, but I would love having this on Spotify as well! You're a very talented musician, and this is by far my favorite cover of Hurt other than Johnny's :D
The cover by the man in black - Johnny Cash - is spine-tingling but this version takes the emotion of the piece to an entirely new level. Truly, Beautiful.
I hurt myself today To see if I still feel I focus on the pain The only thing that's real The needle tears a hole The old familiar sting Try to kill it all away But I remember everything What have I become My sweetest friend Everyone I know Goes away in the end And you could have it all My empire of dirt I will let you down I will make you hurt I wear this crown of thorns Upon my liars chair Full of broken thoughts I cannot repair Beneath the stains of time The feelings disappear You are someone else I am still right here What have I become My sweetest friend Everyone I know Goes away in the end And you could have it all My empire of dirt I will let you down I will make you hurt If I could start again A million miles away I will keep myself I would find a way
Listening to this on a HQ headset reveals how masterful you played this piece, you have touched my soul, Johnny Cash would have approved, Thank you sir.
When I look for a moment of peace, when I need to read more clearly my thoughts, I listen to your amazing piano covers...sometimes together with my 9 years old son who is a piano student..Thanks, Josh!
Radiohead, Aphex Twin and Nine Inch Nails?! Perfect taste in music my friend! Would love to hear your take on something like We're in this Together, or The Day the Whole World Went Away. This one was awesome! :)
I wasn't sure what I was getting to at first with the very slow intro and long video, but man was that a beautiful slow burn into a powerful cover. You play with so much soul, fantastic job
What a beautiful, splendid, wonderful and heartfelt song. It was only when I was 58 years old that I heard it for the first time, and it caused me to have a drink, one and many more. His lyrics are a poem to our brief life and to the cozy eternity. Cheers!!! 🥃🥃🥃♥♥♥
Your arrangements are incredible and are part of what motivates me to keep studying piano. I'm trying to follow the same kind of path you did: classical training while progressively moving over to jazz. Keep up the good work !
At first, before I launched this video, I was thinking will it be possible to get this song right on piano. But Your interpretation overtook me. Great one!
Just discovered your channel today (through avril 14th) And I have to say you fucking nailed the soul of this song, almost crying at the 8:45 mark. Well done, thanks
You know, literally just a few days ago, I thought about and listened to the live NIN version of this song for the first time in a while, the one Trent does on his own for some benefit thing (can’t remember). After that, I got the urge to learn to play it on piano. Thanks for this timely upload which serves as inspiration. :)
Chilling, beautiful cover as always. I've preferred the NIN version for as long as I can remember, and I do wish you would've kept that dissonance in the verse A-minor, but I can understand why you didn't. Still, amazing cover. Stunning.
Listen man, I don't like covers personally, even when it's someone very good or very well-known, I just never enjoyed alteration from original, but you are just so different, it's not even a cover in my opinion, it's like, beautiful compositions inspired by those songs, created newly by you. Maybe it's just the piano, haha. Don't stop making these, and I can't wait to buy your book (Edit: not to plug in a request, buuuuuut how to disappear completely lol)
Yeah, I’m not really a fan of covers either. Totally know what you mean. I do enjoy though using great quality material and content, and playing around with different elements. It’s a really soothing process. I’ll release some more original content, which will have a similar inflexion. Curious to see if people will still resonate with it.. Book is about 65% there there..
Yeah I hate things for reasons like that too... Change isn't always bad, remember when people didn't use soap? You wanna go back to a world like that, or would you rather allow yourself to enjoy a cover song and not hate something/one based on where it came from?
Man it would be so great if you would put your covers on Spotify. I love them so much. And it would be perfect if I could listen to them on my way to college. Or just whenever I want without having UA-cam open.
Notification squad!! #505 I'm not fully awaken yet, but I could not let this notification unwatched. Such an amazing and moving song recreated by my favorite pianist
Absolutely brilliant. I personally feel like there is a way that sometimes only the piano can evoke a certain emotion. Don't get me wrong, I get get the feels when I hear the original version by cash himself, but your cover also has a special magic to it. Props. (nice name by the way)
Cash's and NIN's versions have 2 personalities. This is one of those rare instances where the cover of the original song overshadows the original version. After watching Johnny's completed video of the song, Trent (of NIN) said "wow. Tears welling, silence, goose-bumps... Wow. I just lost my girlfriend, because that song isn't mine anymore"
Hi Josh, your cover is beautiful! Your improvisational skills add to the allure of your performance of this great song! Your tempo is much slower than original, but it makes it even more emotional and allows every beautiful note to sink right in. You have really made this your own. BRAVO! Take good care Josh, ~Jackie
You're most welcome Josh! Nice to see we are online at the same time as your reply was quite fast! Keep making and posting your amazing performances. I love them! Enjoy the weekend :-) ~Jackie
Totally wow, pure satisfaction to hear this song. I would love to have these sheet music and play the song on my concert piano😇Hope you will publish these piano sheets in future 😊
2024 update! New piano tutorials and sheet music coming soon: emergencypianohotline.com
Hello! Is this sheet available anywhere? I would love to buy this beautiful piece
I have rarely heard something so good, everything is perfect, the sound, the tempo, the music. Your interpretation is divine. Thank you very much.
That piano sounds fucking amazing...it's so in tune it's like a soul lives in it
could just get a keyboard and always be in tune
@@SirZachariahlll this was probably just a joke, but a keyboard will never compare to an actual piano. you can't emulate the shimmering of physical strings interacting and resonating with each other
@destructyo LOL yes brother. I was just trolling with sarcasm. You are 100% correct
Just heard your version in Aka. knew right away what it was. The best version of the song yet. Incredible movie, incredible piece.
Me too! I am loving this! ♥️
@@xeniapapadatou7972 such a good movie
Just finished watching AKA , & the ending made me come find this. Never heard this or any of the others before but after just listening to every version on UA-cam, this one takes the cake without a doubt.
@@FastCashClass I think the version of Johnny Vash is unbeatable.
I’ve always preferred original nin version over the Johnny cash cover. However this arrangement is amazing, actually one of the best piano covers of this song on UA-cam. Wish I could listen to this on Spotify.
+flutterbyby Should be on Spotify shortly 😃
Was this ever put on spotify?
I found his profile but this wasn't on there. Can anyone link this song for me?
I haven’t put them on Spotify just yet, sorry.
@@joshcohenmusic hey no pressure, but I would love having this on Spotify as well! You're a very talented musician, and this is by far my favorite cover of Hurt other than Johnny's :D
I suffered insomnia till 6 am in the morning until I listened to you and was able to fall asleep from exhaustion.
That may have been the exhaustion lol
spotify sucks big time..
@@andrewmoll1560 idk this song helps me sleep maybe it’s the cure lol
One of the best piano covers of all time
Finally, a great piano rendition of this beautiful song. Thank you! 🙏🏻
+Luke Edinburgh You’re welcome!
The cover by the man in black - Johnny Cash - is spine-tingling but this version takes the emotion of the piece to an entirely new level. Truly, Beautiful.
I hurt myself today
To see if I still feel
I focus on the pain
The only thing that's real
The needle tears a hole
The old familiar sting
Try to kill it all away
But I remember everything
What have I become
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know
Goes away in the end
And you could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
I wear this crown of thorns
Upon my liars chair
Full of broken thoughts
I cannot repair
Beneath the stains of time
The feelings disappear
You are someone else
I am still right here
What have I become
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know
Goes away in the end
And you could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
If I could start again
A million miles away
I will keep myself
I would find a way
Essa letra sempre emociona
❤️

You’re most welcome✌️
You created a whole concert with this piano cover. Incredibly beautiful every note.
Touches me so deeply.... sometimes I envy you for the talent to transport emotions with your music like the way you do.
I jumped onto this video after I was warching a movie yesterday with this soundtrack.
Thank You for playing it so emotionally. :-)
Thanks for the kind words x
its insane how much emotion this brings me
The way the notes blend together, yet remain so separate at 1:33... unreal
Yeah, it's a chord.
I'm just kidding, it's beautiful!
LeandroBRC47 I think he was talking about the trill not the chord
this piano sounds amazing
NIN - Right Here Where It Belongs would be a fantastic song to hear from you!
I've not managed to listen to this without tearing up. Ever.
Radiohead, Aphex Twin and Nine Inch Nails?! Perfect taste in music my friend! Would love to hear your take on something like We're in this Together, or The Day the Whole World Went Away. This one was awesome! :)
@knowledge share this guy 🙄
@hsm_presents imagine being this much of a prick for no reason, get a life
there's just something really calming and beautiful about the way you play. i love it. thank you
I wasn't sure what I was getting to at first with the very slow intro and long video, but man was that a beautiful slow burn into a powerful cover. You play with so much soul, fantastic job
Thank you ✌️
I hate having to listen to this every now again. But damn it's a good healing song especially your rendition of your reimagining Josh!!! 😢❤😢❤
Thanks for the kind words x
I've listened to this track hundreds of times and it never fails to make the hairs one the back of my neck stand up. Stunning work!!
What a beautiful, splendid, wonderful and heartfelt song. It was only when I was 58 years old that I heard it for the first time, and it caused me to have a drink, one and many more. His lyrics are a poem to our brief life and to the cozy eternity. Cheers!!! 🥃🥃🥃♥♥♥
Even before listening I knew i would love it . Fantastic Josh 👏👏👏
+ma ghz Thanks!
Now that is the most beautiful artistic version I have heard! Wow! Moves me the way the words do..
This song is deep and you just made it cavernous! ❤
So beautiful made me cry . I just started to learn piano in this last week seeing videos like this truly gives me inspiration . Thank you so much
You're most welcome. Thanks for the kind words ✌️
#AKA movie! I Shazamed and found YOU! You are amazing! Thank you for this! Can't stop listening!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Can’t imagine what anyone would have to give a thumbs down for on this. Heartfelt. Cheers
Your arrangements are incredible and are part of what motivates me to keep studying piano. I'm trying to follow the same kind of path you did: classical training while progressively moving over to jazz. Keep up the good work !
Why did I even have the slighest doubt that I wouldn't be satisfied by this performance? Spectacular, like always!
It’s amazing how you can make that piano sound like it’s crying. Thank God for you.
At first, before I launched this video, I was thinking will it be possible to get this song right on piano. But Your interpretation
overtook me. Great one!
Awesome. Glad you enjoyed the arrangement ✌️
Thanks for putting it on Spotify ❤❤❤ i lost my best friend 8 years ago yesterday and this makes me cry every time
This is my wife's favourite song Josh and she asked me to tell you that she loves your interpretation of it,
Thanks, John. Pass my best back to her ✌️
This is beautiful, thank you so much for sharing.
Friggen amazing
Big hands strikes back!
Thanks sir!
Just discovered your channel today (through avril 14th) And I have to say you fucking nailed the soul of this song, almost crying at the 8:45 mark. Well done, thanks
Cheers, Rob ✌️
Always a joy waking up to a notification for another magnificent cover. Thanks again for sharing your gift with the world, Josh!
Can't think of a better way to start the day

Beautiful and mesmerizing as always
Josh, this is a beautiful rendition and your playing is phenomenal. What more can I say.
Thanks very much. Glad you enjoyed the arrangement ✌️
Incredible again Josh. Keep them coming.
Trent is a amazing musician singer love all his work great job on the cover .
u are great man.....seen all your videos.....congratulation from italy!!!!
Thank you for your contributions. A moment of clarity always comes with your pieces of work.
Thanks, Tim. Appreciate the kind words ✌️
Awesome! I wish I could play the piano just to play this song. Great job I love it. Best rendition I have ever heard.
Chilling, beautiful cover as always. I've preferred the NIN version for as long as I can remember, and I do wish you would've kept that dissonance in the verse A-minor, but I can understand why you didn't. Still, amazing cover. Stunning.
Not sure if this is the exact version, but something similar was used in the Netflix movie AKA.
Your covers are amazing, the sound, the rhythm, everything it’s perfect and, sometimes, better than the original songs. Pure magic.
Nice to hear a fresh rendition of this breath-taking song
That intro…. Was bliss..
Listen man, I don't like covers personally, even when it's someone very good or very well-known, I just never enjoyed alteration from original, but you are just so different, it's not even a cover in my opinion, it's like, beautiful compositions inspired by those songs, created newly by you.

Josh Cohen I'm definitely interested, and many thanks as always

I need a Firth of Fifth (Genesis) cover ASAP! Great work as always Josh.
That was stunning! Thanks Josh.
Notification squad!! #505 I'm not fully awaken yet, but I could not let this notification unwatched. Such an amazing and moving song recreated by my favorite pianist
This is tough to listen to...
..its that good.
Raw, visceral, beautiful. Well done!
Thanks so much!
This is the prettiest cover I have ever heard of this song. It sounds so painful you know?
Annie Wilson that’s exactly what I thought. It’s amazing how you can make music sound like crying.
Stirring. Haunting. Hits the core
Honestly, you're my idol. This is so beautiful to listen to and even watching. Thank you
You’re welcome, Anna. Thanks for watching 😃
Absolutely brilliant. I personally feel like there is a way that sometimes only the piano can evoke a certain emotion. Don't get me wrong, I get get the feels when I hear the original version by cash himself, but your cover also has a special magic to it. Props.
(nice name by the way)
Cash was not the original version, he came along 7yrs later and did a great cover, but It's NIN's original song.
Brent Spear thank you for pointing that out. I was actually not aware of that!
Cash's and NIN's versions have 2 personalities. This is one of those rare instances where the cover of the original song overshadows the original version. After watching Johnny's completed video of the song, Trent (of NIN) said "wow. Tears welling, silence, goose-bumps... Wow. I just lost my girlfriend, because that song isn't mine anymore"
As an aspiring layman trying to learn piano - I envy you a lot. Great video as usual! Amazing rendition of a very good song.
beautiful sound of the Kawai RX-5 !
Oliv' D. If
I never suscribe to a youtuber at the first video seen until today. This is just amazing and beautifull !
Glad you enjoyed the track. Thanks for watching 😃

Given where this song was originally recorded, you couldn't have chosen a better day to post it...
Awesome, as usual !
what do you mean by this?
One of my favorites. Gentle touch🤗
Amazing, this arrangement is the best piano covers!!! I love. Please transcribe this arrangment on sheet music 🙂
Totally wow, pure satisfaction to hear this song. I would love to have these sheet music and play the song on my concert piano😇Hope you will publish these piano sheets in future 😊
Holy shit! Just blew me away
Absolutely beautiful mate. I have subscribed and will no doubt listen to this over and over again 👏👏👏👏
Thanks very much, Craig ✌️

Hi, have you found sheet music in that case? I would also really love to learn this and any recommendations would be great! Thank you.
natetricks123 he has a book out of the Radiohead covers on his website. Google josh Cohen music. I’ve been working on it for 6 months or so now
Love from Greece!!! 🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷☺️☺️☺️
Beautiful Music always puts a smile on my face, thank you 🙂
Absolutely mesmerizing cover. Touched my soul
This. Is. FANTASTIC. Looking forward to hearing more covers :)
Okay, authentic question from someone who stumbled upon your channel.
How many souls had to be sacrificed to make that piano sound so perfect?
You're an inspiration
Beautiful
😍 This is such an under-rated channel. Deserves 10x the subs and then some.
I'm so jealous of your effortless 11 key span. Beautiful playing by the way.
I must admit, I really love to be able to abuse my reach. The additional harmony you can create is so beautiful, mainly with tenths 😉
With emotion! Well done, friend!
Nice job, and nice Kawai! I have its brother, the RX6.
This is f’n beautiful
Your moving personal touch. Thank you.
Simply stunning
Love it!!!
Thank you!! Beautifully done!
Thanks so much, Alan. Glad you enjoyed the interpretation ✌️
That's cool Josh.
