When you become the master of the Bard's college in skyrim
if only
It's the only college I ever graduated from LOL
Jerzy Kajmowicz mages guild?
James Harden every time I go down this internet wormhole and see people playing covers of songs on weird instruments or like all parts of a song on one instrument it’s always this or Africa by Toto (which he also plays in another video)
Level 20 Bard with a 22 in Charisma, and enchanted dulcimer, and advantage, using charm.
It feels as if the song was originally written for this instrument.
Simply brilliant. 👏
I'm an elementary music teacher and used this video for one of my lessons. The kids couldn't get enough of it! They would always request that I would play this for almost lesson. Great arrangement!
That's awesome ♡
Same but a while back when I was teaching preschool! This instrument and his skills are truly amazing
This song translates to this instrument so well, and your presentation is beautiful. Roland would be proud.
@@r3furbish3dbrain12 can't tell if anti-joke or
So since it's apparently gone over everyone's head, Roland was the dude from TFF
Indeed my friend
@@r3furbish3dbrain12 Bahahaha I don't think very many people got your joke. :P
@@r3furbish3dbrain12 Curt might be chuffed with it too. 🤔
I love how his family is just sitting in the background thinking “We’re late for our dinner reservations!”
This absolutely cracked me up! 😂
Fuck them

“Hey I play guitar, what do you play?”
This guy: “oh I play a piano with no keys”
customclonesinc2010 all the keys do is push a little hammer against some strings.
Thomas Blakely no shit
@@alexhayward1442 Yes shit.
It's an open-faced piano? 🤔
Bro its an analogue piano
That one strange but cool mellow dad in the neighborhood.
I can't get enough of this
Thanks Chris.
Ted Yoder No problem
dat boi who the heck are you
I feel the same way. Just listen over and over! Really enjoyable sir. Thanks so much for sharing.
Hi Chris
Damn dude, I think this is my favorite version of the song ever.
🤣 thank you
@@TedYoderMusic it's crazy amazing... like someone wrote.. with a woofer or electric would be undescribable
@@MarcDufresneosorusrex it would be describable as: louder.
I can’t stop rewatching it, its just a perfect cover
For me, yes it is
Okay but thE FADE OUT OF THE SONG WAS PURE PERFECTION. Wow that was unbelievable. Pure magic.
😂 thank you.
this is honestly one of my favorite things to listen to. absolutely intoxicating.
Don't Hit The Ben Thank you. Appreciate the kind words.
right
Ted Yoder this is really great I love it
Thank you Aurora.
Ted Yoder no problem it's really good and sounds the exact same
I'm studying the dulcimer for my character in Dungeons and Dragons; I'm ASTONISHED by how elegant this sounds! As I type while in my session I'll probably stick around for more covers!~
That’s awesome. Thanks. A few of my kids play D&D and enjoy it very much.
Lugging a dulcimer on a D&D campaign sounds like a serious dedication to the craft.
@@kubrickenigma7977 I haven’t used it much in the campaign itself but I learn as I go
@@ooeygooeygoodra3068 It's hard to be a bard.
To bard, or not to bard... that is the question.
@@kubrickenigma7977 Despite my monk class, I am figuring things out slowly but surely
Have you ever considered playing at Renaissance Faires? I imagine you'd draw quite a crowd.
James Clum Dolan seriously!
I’m almost positive I’ve seen this guy play at the Oregon Country Fair when I was really young. The dude had me mesmerized.
this instrument isn’t a renaissance instrument
@@owenwillard5409 I don’t know much about the hammered dulcimer, what time period was the instrument created?
Edit nevermind, I found that it originated in Persia and came to Western Europe in 900-1200 AD
Ren faires 🤣
I love how you didn’t give up and kept going when things got rough. Much love to you and your beautiful family.
Thank you sir. Happy new year.
I cannot believe it has been 7 years since the universe gave me Ted Yoder. I just love him.
Hey, it’s been awhile since I’ve seen you. Thanks for returning to the scene of the crime. 😊
6 years later and still a gorgeous instrument and piece
Thank you. Appreciate you watching again. 😊
3 years later and I still enjoy this immensely. Just get that knack, let's go listen to Ted play that magic machine of his.
Thank you. So many people still request this song in concert.
Year later and i am still hooked on your beautiful magic machine.
I keep coming back to this every few months. Still just as impressed as the first time my dude.
Thank you John. Much appreciated.
Just thought you should know..my pet macaw loves this. He dances and "sings" along with it every time I play it.
+iammumawaldi Lol. 😂 Love it. Thank you.
know what'd be cool, if you posted us a link to a video of said macaw doing this. ..cause that sounds like something that would get Likes.
@@bagofchips8813 also macaws singing to this would be awesome
iammumawaldi love that macaw with all you have it could very well be one of the last on earth
Ted, 29th September, bleary eyed, siting in the hospital subway restaurant earing my breakfast after a long night bearing witness to my daughter entering the world. I was so tired and I saw this on my news feed, I was instantly awe struck, I must of visited this song on UA-cam at least a hundred times since, and it takes me back to that time and moment every play. I will show her this video for years to come and all I can say is keep the music coming. it is truly beautiful what you do.
This is so beautiful I hope your daughter is well!!
Ashley Harper I will have another cousin next year on the 22 of April, my older cousin is having a boy
Ashley Harper amazing story! Thank you for sharing!
That is lovely
That’s my birthday. Congrats
How is it possible that over 400 people can dislike this video? Did they clean their ears out before listening? This is awesome, delightful, a joy - all of the above! Thankyou. ❤️
Thank you. 🙂
Welp, can't see 'em now!
They are probably used to music (I use the term in the loosest possible manner) that they can't actually HEAR, just feel the vibration through their body from the high volume and low frequency bass beat. When presented with something that their ears can actually hear, they don't know how to process it. Audiologists for years to come will rejoice and take their money !
@@KorAnos1 572 people
Maybe it is the title. It isn't the most positive thing to hear.
What instrument do you play?
Oh, I'm a piano drummer
Considering pianos are technically a percussion instrument, that makes a ton of sense to call a dulcimer a piano drum
I just called a dulcimer a miniature Grand Piano (in essence, structure demands some eccentric tunings) so yeah... however you want to put it.
They're stunning beasts... percussive strings.
😄
Such stupid comments. He is an absolute master at the Hammered Dulcimer. Take your rude remarks elsewhere
@@carolynleedonovan lol who is being rude?
@@John-ju9dt not in this particular segment but in the greater thread. Just stupid ass comments about his playing. Ignorant people is all. Not you
Once in a,while you come across a video which showcases what UA-cam is really about...
Thank you. Appreciate that.
It is a privilege to have this show up in my feed every few years.
You are amazing. Great sound and absolutely beautiful.
Hevesh5 you here?
I love tears for fears💜
hevesh5 the amazing domino artist?!?!
Yep!
The grasshopper/cicada sound at the end is just *chefs kiss*
I miss the sounds of summer. 😊
No matter who 's playing it, this is a security blanket of a song
Sorry have to say it but holy shit. I've never heard something sound so good. Absolutely beautiful.
😂 it's okay you can say it. It's a good compliment. I'm glad you liked it. 😁
What a beautiful sound! 🎼
ACEMAN5253 I
I cried
The instrumentation of the original tells us that true human art is becoming harder and harder to come by, this version sounds like a medieval battle that will decide the fate of everything is about to take place. I love both versions.
Just saw him in concert today and still couldn’t get enough of his dulcimer. Had to come here again. Such joyful music.
I almost forgot to listen to this today
I legitimately have listened to this almost every day since I discovered it about one week ago and I intend to keep going.
Coolest Dad award!
I love watching those mute shutter things go up and down. Its oddly satisfying.
It's like a piano and a guitar are coming out of the same instrument
Things like this makes me glad to be alive on planet earth, in this day and age, so that I can witness such wonders.
The dexterity required for this, crazy. Crazy respect. Makes my job(TIG welding) look like child's play.
Every time I hear this I sit down looking back at myself, our world and what it has become. The song is pure perfection. It promts deep thinking and awakes emotions. Truly a masterpiece. Thank you Ted, for your mesmerizing performance.
I hope your family is in awe of how wonderfully gifted you are... and how special it is to be able to create music like this. I smiled through the whole song! Thank you! 🙏
Thank you. So glad you enjoyed it. 😊
A truly underrated instrument. Beautiful.
Yes it is. :) Thank you.
this, I consider one of DIVINE arrangement!!! you surely made it rain harder.
😊 thank you.
Ah, after two years it's once again recommended
*Splendid*
Masterful performance my friend 👍
*suddenly wants a dulcimer for Christmas*
Tremendous. It makes me wonder about all the other instruments I know nothing about.
The person who invented the dulcimer: So there I was, 30 pints later, hammering piano strings with sticks
The first time I heard this instrument was from a street performer. I recorded it and I listened to it whenever I wanted a relaxing sound. It took me a while to find the name of the instrument to be able to listen to it again properly. I wish I could thank that busker in Swansea, Wales, back in the year 2012 🙏 Thank you for this music in your channel!
You’re so welcome and thanks for the comment.
i keep coming back to this every once and a while, i like this version more than the official song, its so calming, great work.
First time I've seen a damper pedal on a hammered dulcimer. Nice! I have a beautiful one made for me by a man who had a company in Boone NC but I can't remember the name now because it's been well over 20 years ago, but it does not have the damper. I picked up the "hammers" having never played one and quickly learned Amazing Grace. When he saw this, He showed me his shop and showed me the different stages of construction. He realized I had an ear for music so he didn't tell me, but asked me to thump on the three resonant cavities inside. He somehow had them tuned to a major chord! We became instant friends. I bought the best one he had and have loved it, but now wish it had the dampers. You play well!
Thank you. That’s also quite a story. Love it. 😊
I don’t even know why but every time I watch this it brings a tear to my eye. Just sounds so beautiful and it’s so amazing to see somebody making music like that.
This is genuinely probably the most beautiful sounding instrument I've ever heard.
Ted I come back to this video every so often; your rendition sits comfortably in its own home in my mind. This video had such a nostalgic feel on first watch; and now it's formed its own.
I appreciate it. Thank you. Very kind.
When I close my eyes, I hear an upright, saloon style piano.
Those are called honkey tonk pianos if yiu wanna look em up
That instrument needs to be electrified, then you could do some amazing things with it.
NeonsStyle I'm sure there's an electric dulcimer somewhere
It's already an amazing sound. Acoustic instruments rock.
Needs no electricity. He's making it sing with it's natural sound and his talent.
We need to learn to just leave sh.. alone.
No need for electricity that is music in it's raw natural sound amazing.
I saw a beautiful dulcimer for sale in Victoria Australia made of fine woods of the globe including Aussie acacia for 850. It made me curious as to the price tag. You make it sound like one special instrument. Thankyou for being a unique human being and following your gift. Lovely sound!
338 views here on UA-cam but over 2.7M and counting on your Facebook page.
Amazing cover.
Crazy isn't it? Thanks man. What a ride. 😋
+Ted Yoder It certainly is, haha. I hope you're enjoying it.
I'd like to thank you for turning me onto the hammered dulcimer. I'm also a musician and I think I'm going to be picking up one of these up after some research.
+David K. Jones Ha, sweet. Let me know if I can help you find something. Been in the hammered dulcimer world for sometime. Don't claim to know it all but I can be of help. Thanks again friend.
+Ted Yoder If I have any questions I'll be sure to send them your way. 👍😃
Now 33 million views and climbing.
the fact that only 1.9 million people have seen this video is a shame
Saw hammered dulcimer listed on the Blue Exorcist movie soundtrack.
Had to know what it was.
Be proud dude, this is great and you're the first result that comes up for hammered dulcimer on google videos.
😂 I love it! And thank you.
This sounds like some crazy elven music, and I LOVE
I never even knew I liked this song until this lol. You really made it sound amazing man
Ya know I just found this after looking up “dulcimer” having read about it in the Book of Daniel. I had no idea this ancient instrument existed. This is one of my favorite 80s songs, too. What a delight! God has blessed you! Now I’m off to explore your channel for more!
I love it! Thank you.
I've watched this over and over it's so beautiful ❤ What a talented man. Wish I could sing with this version gorgeous.
How well this song fits into the current times. This musical version shows how music is the true universal language. ❤
Love it. Thank you. 😊
This is still one of those songs I listen to on bad days when the world feels like it's in eternal clouds, and I need a little sunbeam on my ears. It always makes me cry a little but so does all the best music. Thanks for sharing with us
This is one of the best videos I've seen in my entire life. I have no words.
Wow. Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it. Hope to bring you more.
I mean... you had SOME words
It's like a piano with the cover off
Gareth Alford a harp would be a naked piano surely?
@@benmcdonald1980 a harp is pulled/plucked, this is played like a piano by beeing struck with hammers
That sounds different.
it's like a piano but way harder
@@gsxmidas4744 I disagree. Piano has a lot more going on.
You are who inspired me to get a hammer dulcimer. This is such a beautiful, iconic performance! One of my favorite songs of all time too!
Thank you. What an amazing thing to be an inspiration to someone else. Just an FYI, I have lessons and an amazing HD community on Patreon if you want to come check it out. It'd be an honor to be your teacher too.🙃 www.patreon.com/tedyoder
Everything about this brought tears to my eyes .... you're so good at it ..m the setting .... performing for your kids ... how beautiful thankyou for sharing :)
I looks like a lot of work went into getting the sound sooooo good! Be proud Ted, you took a great soug and kept it great.
Thank you. Appreciate it.
Hard to believe its been 6 years since you posted this. I just keep coming back to it.
This is genuinely the best version of this song ive heard. Its genuinely bringing me to tears right now. Such a beautiful song and beautiful instrument.
Thank you. Appreciate the kind words.
I didn't even know what a hammered dulcimer up until a few days ago when I saw your video on Facebook. You do a fantastic job. Keep up the great music!
Thanks I get that a lot. Is that a xylophone? Very common question. :)
sometimes i think about this video and immediately my day gets better
No flashing lights home made video. No edits and one of my favorite music videos. This song is the epitome of the 80’s and this dude the epitome of talent!
Thank you sir. Those are kind words.
Bless you my friend! I hope you and your family are doing great! Amazing cover and skill
Peace!!
Thank you. Appreciate it.
I come back to this performance anytime I hear Tears for Fears, that is a beautiful instrument and it’s magnificently played Ted, mesmerising! 🔥👏🏻
Great song, Ted. That song played on that instrument is addicting. I keep playing the song over & over. Wow! Job well done. Thx for posting something so beautiful.
I listen to this version almost daily. Thanks Ted!
🥰 thank you.
All of the beauty of life, the feels, the nostalgia, the joy, the peace, can be found in this melodious backyard miracle.
Such an uplifting sound!!!
Este instrumento nos emociona em todos os idiomas... Muito mérito do músico, aliás. Parabéns!
Tell you what Ted, this is 👌👌👌👌👌 shout out from Australia mate 👍
'Yoder'? Awesome at dulcimer, you are.
Star Wars
A common Amish name. :)
Be honest fellas, you looked for this video
first found this video about a year ago and wanted a hammered dulcimer ever since, now im finally buying one and couldnt be more excited to learn everything. thank you for your inspiration
That's awesome. Thanks for letting me know and if you're interested, I have lessons on Patreon. Come check them out. It'd be an honor to be your teacher as well as inspiration. 😋 www.patreon.com/tedyoder
Don't have much to say other than this is beautiful, thank you.
so its basically a mini portable grand piano. whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat
Actually it’s a Hammered dulcimer
@mike sixx actually the Harpsichord came after the Dulcimer just so you know.
@mike sixx zithers are played by plucking this is a hammered Dulcimer. It is an ancient instrument that is the predecessor to pianos harpsichords and etc. It was brought to Europe by the moors. most instruments originate in either Africa or the middle east. Again this is a Hammered Dulcimer look it up!
@mike sixx You know nothing go google it you sound like an uneducated fool. I have researched the origins of musical instruments extensively before it even says in the description that he is playing a hammered Dulcimer. The dulcimer has been around since 900 AD why don't you ask google since you are so sure! also Europe did not invent music they were taught it read a history book!
This is also in the bio if you cared to look so I will paste it here since you do not know how to read! :"Critically acclaimed musician Ted Yoder is widely considered “the Bela Fleck of the hammered dulcimer." Ted is a National Hammered Dulcimer champion. He’s released five beloved and critically acclaimed solo albums, and become a master educator of the instrument.

I met this family in Evart Michigan at the dulcimer festival last year. What a great family!
I made it a reality. We bought a MusicMakers kit to build a 17/16 and I am so happy I have natural musical ability. I'm picking it up quickly and am working on perfecting The Sound of Silence and a few Christmas songs. My cat, Oreo, is particularly fond of it and will often chortle happily while I"m playing. It took us a weekend to make - we started on Thursday night and were finished by Sunday afternooon. It took 4 hours to string and tune!!!! It's got a great sound! Ted is my inspiration!
Damn, beautiful. Gives me goosebumps just thinking about Swampletics. amazing work my man.
4 years ago my old platoon Sgt posted this on his page his name was Paul Slayton. He is no longer with us but everytime I revisit this song I think of him and how he was a great leader and just a good soul. A few years ago he succumbed to his PTSD and I wish I could have been there for him. But I thank Ted Yoder for this song as a portal to say hello to my friend. Rest In Peace Paul.
Thank you Bryan for such a wonderful story. I’m honored my music can be used in such a precious way. Rest In Peace SGT Paul. Thank you both for your service.
I thought this was Doug De Muro lol. But sounds amazing
its his brother showing his musical quirks And features
THISSSS is the hammered dulcimer.
I like cars
Car people who also dig music! I have found my people!
Hey Ted, i`ve seen a little piece of this video in a sampler video of unusual instruments.....what can i sax...i`m totally blown away. I love this song so much and made with this instrument it sound so beautiful. Beautiful, thank you so much for this video. Would love to listen to it live !!! Greetz from germany
Thank you so much. Appreciate it. Be well.
This is extremely cool but seeing him play this musical piece and a half dozen more live from 8 feet away a couple years ago literally brought tears to many eyes... great stuff
You should SO try out for America's Got Talent next season!! THIS IS AWESOME!!
This is so good! I love Tear For Fears and I love this song. This rendition is incredible!
5 years later and this still gives me so much serotonin
Oh my goodness. I saw this on ig (Instagram)and kept listing to it over and over again so i knew i NEEDED to find you on yt. I was looking threw the comments on ig cuz i didnt know wut that instrument was and this girl told me once and i didnt my research and i FOUND YOU THIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL keep it up!!! I love this so much
Tomiyah Hambrick thank you dear. It's an incredible instrument and I'm honored to have you as a fan. 😁
Chills! This is amazing & whoever gave this a thumbs down must have done it accidentally or they're not human.
yeah, sub human garbage fuck wits who could never understand anything much less the significance of this video. Those people always want to say shit like "ohhh art is pointless, there is no use for that, you don't need music, I don't understand, I don't care, blablabla." but if they apply that same logic to themselves all they will ever do is eat and poo... wait, that is all moneys do...
+marklarizzle Amen man!
Some people just have no lives so they have to try and bring everyone else down with them. This is the sort of music I could listen to every day.
+marklarizzle Or maybe they just don't like the song. Personally I think this is great but you can't criticise others for having an opinion.
+Carl Johnson That's fine if it's not someones taste in music but why downvote it, just move on and don't listen to it.
Probably the most nostalgic song I ever heard.
how do you know where to hit? there is like 400 strings
become a musician
+gonzostwin1 I play trumpet
I play the triangle get on my level son
omg this is the best comment on utube. *applauds*
+Paul Garcia lol!
