Вот это да!Вы, успеваете и танцевать и ногами,и руками,и телом двигать.Вообщем Вы,заменяете один целый ансамбль.Я очень удивлён как Вы,ловко и плавно играете,даже пианино полностью подчиняется Вам.Невероятно,Супер! Спасибо Вам.Всего самого наилучшего!
Hey Jonny, I am 21 years old and ive been teaching myself how to play piano when i was 14. By now I have the honour to perform every weekend infront of a couple hundred people. Still I watch your videos and wish to have just 10 % of your skill and knowledge of the piano and music in general. Ive been noticing for a while now, that my left hand is pretty weak compared to my right hand when it comes to speed and activity. But only since I watched your videos I've found the motivation to really train my left hand. Im studying and learning your despacite arrangement for a while now and training my left hand with it and its going great. I just wanna say, THANK YOU for being such an inspiration for me and thousands of other people here on youtube. You are a great pianist and a great teacher, keep on doing what you do and know that you affect alot of lives in a very positive way by doing it. Thanks and best regards from Germany.
hey ! I play on my own piano and it's really REALLY hard. I hope i can become better ! Thanks to share your storie. I feel less alone. ( sorry for this englisch. I am french normaly :) )
i started playing piano by this video seriously seeing that jazz, its been 7 years, I have reached grade 7, thanks man!! you're inspirational!! your despacito changed my life hahaha
A true masterpiece. Keep coming back to this over and over again and would love to be able to play this some day. I'm sure many people would think that the arpeggios and runs in the right hand sound harder but the rhythm and jumps in the left hand make this piece extremely challenging. Would love if you found the time to make a tutorial for this piece one day. Feel like i would need to tap the rhythm out between hands without using notes in the beginning to really nail that syncopation . But yea, hats off to you Jonny, you have really out done yourself with this piece and I would hope to be, one day, as great as you are! Hats off to you, Sir.
lol what do u mean its not a playable cover it is playable with the loop station and loop station technically does not change the "sound" being recorded. it just saves the sound and repeats it over and over again. its not that Peter Bence's cover is unplayable. it just requires loop station, or many people to play it in harmony
lol ive seen the list of videos that you have pressed the like button, and all of them were the most boring shit ive ever seen.... no wonder how rude you actually are :thinking:
I think I've watched this a hundred times already and it's just so wonderful to see him play... Isn't Johnny May the cutest when he's almost dancing while playing the piano...?
Totally different. I love those who play it in their own style. Awesome man. You're the real pianist not like those who simply put arpeggios and finish it . You've put a different n new feel to the song. Those who are criticising (whether good or bad) don't know the real taste of music. They are the type of people who like to eat food with the same ingredients in it. I think this cover is the best of all I found in UA-cam until yet. Cheers! Edit: It's been one year and I realise how rude I was in this comment. I want to change it but I want to keep it authentic. Anyway thanks for the likes.
+Chayanka. I like your comment. But I don't like when you insult the people who are criticizing and say "they don't know the real taste of music". That's not a good attitude and here's why. Because no piano player is perfect and I'm certain Jonny would be the first to accept he is not perfect (although he is an awesome player - in fact my favourite player on UA-cam!). So criticism is inevitable and should be seen as constructive. When people like you insult the critics for stating how they feel about Jonny's playing they may not post their critical comments as often as they do and we the learners would then be at a disadvantage because we learn an awful lot from the critical comments. And I bet Jonny learns from them too because feedback is probably the most valuable thing one can receive in order to nurture and grow a creative skill. So please, every person here is entitled to voice their opinion and it doesn't matter whether you agree with it or not, what matters is that they can feel free to do it without being insulted. It's a free world ..... let's keep it that way. I wish you well.
Helenaville Thank you for spending your valuable time in correcting me. I certainly shouldn't have put it that way. I understand people have their own opinions and just like that I gave my opinion too. I am sorry if it offended you and others. I didn't intend to do so. My best regards to you.
Johnny thank God God has gifted me with the ability to physically play any piece ever written. I don’t have the talent to make things up like you do but I have the talent to play and thank God for people like you to put it down the music so I can play it thank you!
I keep coming back to this video every few weeks for a pick me up, it's just god damn perfection. And like all your videos you always seem to love playing which makes it even more fun to watch, you're the man, good sir.
Totally different. I like those who play it in their own style. Awesome man. You're the real pianist not like those who simply put arpeggios and finish it .

That means to live every notes , to love music , to have a real passion and to deserve more subscribers , views and respect.Thumbs up for you brother , keep on going 👍
I was at that Point in my life when i really got angry by listening to that song which was played in the Radio the whole day. You saved that song and put new energy into this track!!! God Bless you and your music Jonny!!! :)
Thousands of people tried to make different arrangements of this song, but none were able to make it sound this good. This is what I call true talent. Bravo!
Juan Mayo (John May), el sentimiento que pones en el montuno, me hace pensar que por tu sangre corre sangre Latina. Es la primera vez que escucho a alguien con nombre y apellido Gringo que inspira ese sentimiento invisible que los hispanos llevamos dentro. Acabo de convertirme en tu Fan.
WTF !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is crazy indeed!!!! Holly S***** It is AAAAAAMAZING!!!!!!!!!! Congrats dude! You did a great and magical version of that song!
I love your musicality and zest. Your technique is really beautiful and you give the music such flare and dynamism. You are an inspiration and a natural talent. I LOVE YOU. :)
Очень позитивный и легкий и энергичный!!Душа легка,проста ,необидчива и окрылящая других!!Способность от Бога-выбирать позитив в жизни.!Это не отрицание негатива,а сознательные усилия выбирать лучшее.
Wow is all I can say to that. Since it’s 6 in the morning and I’m extremely sleepy and suffering from bad migraines , I was expecting to hear Desinfinado by Stan Getz, but was utterly surprised when he started playing this. I was about to turn it off cause it was not what I was expecting but I knew it’d be a sin to do, especially on a Sunday. This dude is a true magician on the keys. Magical to hear. I could listen to his covers all day long. Worst come to worst, I’d be entertained while I suffer in silence
Very nice arrangement .Your style and frequency is just Fantabulous. I also play piano . And I also like jazz.......I also saw your free falling on bluthner piano
Manos virtuosas de gran talento. Felicidades! Impresionado! Gracias amigo enorme melodía que quedará plasmada en la eternidad. La música nos une y viva la alegría!
I bought your sheet music. I love it very much. I also posted it on UA-cam just before. Although I have some mistakes, but I hope you enjoy it. I share your channel with my family and some of my friends, they all said you are brilliant. I support you Professor Johnny May. Can you post more? Thanks! I will continue to share your channel to others to subscribe your channel. Good Luck!
Who are these people giving constructive criticism? Never saw this guy before, but my daughter and I are in absolute awe. I've never seen someone this good play this well and enjoy it so much. I enjoyed this much more than watching Yuja Wang in person in SFO...the weekend of the US Open at Olympic.
For me, this is the only version that shines like a beacon above the rest. Playing Despacito in such a way that it still has its rhythm and melody is extremely challenging for a solo piano player, therefore there are versions where great imagination will not help you and you have to read what you are listening to. This version is a balm not only for the ears but also for the eyes.. excellent...!!!👍
You are great pianist! I am pianist too, but I am teacher, now at home with my son 22 months old. We play this song too. You really inspire us to make new video! Thank you!!
Вот это да!Вы, успеваете и танцевать и ногами,и руками,и телом двигать.Вообщем Вы,заменяете один целый ансамбль.Я очень удивлён как Вы,ловко и плавно играете,даже пианино полностью подчиняется Вам.Невероятно,Супер! Спасибо Вам.Всего самого наилучшего!

hey ! I play on my own piano and it's really REALLY hard. I hope i can become better ! Thanks to share your storie. I feel less alone. ( sorry for this englisch. I am french normaly :) )
Good
his face and entire demeanor while he plays just lights up my day
You can clearly see how much fun he has playing the song and it makes it so much better. Absolutely LOVE it!
What I enjoy most about watching musicians like you is how much fun you seem to have when you play. Keep having fun!
The best cover I've ever heard. It's full of Latin style
you can see the real appreciation fo music in this man's playing. bravo!!!
That's the only version that I could listen again and again, and again. Great energy ! Awesome work !
i started playing piano by this video seriously seeing that jazz, its been 7 years, I have reached grade 7, thanks man!! you're inspirational!! your despacito changed my life hahaha

this is the best despacito piano cover i've ever heard!!
This one is great, but Peter Bence's even better
The problem with Peter Bence's is its not a "playable" piano cover, he uses sound effect's, even with that i still like this more.
lol what do u mean its not a playable cover
it is playable with the loop station and loop station technically does not change the "sound" being recorded.
it just saves the sound and repeats it over and over again.
its not that Peter Bence's cover is unplayable. it just requires loop station, or many people to play it in harmony
Nah this one is clearly much better, sry for your wrong oppinion.
lol ive seen the list of videos that you have pressed the like button, and all of them were the most boring shit ive ever seen.... no wonder how rude you actually are :thinking:
The best cover of "This Unknown Song" I've ever seen!!!
So many piano techniques over one simple song making it so advanced! I love it!
Hermosa versión. Me encanta el entusiasmo que le pone y como lo disfruta tanto como los que lo escuchamos. Bravísimo!!
Que!!!!!!!
Bonito Auténtico,maravilloso
Que Personalizada!!!!!!
FELICIDADES,MAESTRO
Dios bendiga su talentooo
FORMIDABLE
You're amazing. You probably have the best covers on all of youtube. I love how you personalise each piece and put your whole soul into it.
I love the way he is enjoying the music while playing. Jaw dropping stuff.
it's not only the way he plays the song, it's the passion you can see in his performance. Amazing dude!
Amazing technique and such a CREATIVE and original arrangement. Your joy of music just bursts out man. Huge fan.
Hi Jonny your performance of playing piano is excellent and brings to the cheerful paradise. ピアノの演奏は素晴らしいよ。
I think I've watched this a hundred times already and it's just so wonderful to see him play... Isn't Johnny May the cutest when he's almost dancing while playing the piano...?
Holy...?! That's PURE DOPENESSS!!
What marjin he is here wowww
wow! its very cooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo0000000000000000000000000000000ooooooooooooool !!

Check for the sheet...almost the same arrangement!
No no no!
This is mind blowing 🤯
That’s the best Despacito cover I have ever heard.

Chayanka Kaushik *don't *like
Anubhav Baishya Uff. likes*
Chayanka Kaushik Is very easy to put new feelings in a song which is just about flirting and having sex 😂 (great talented pianist, btw)

Awesome comment - thanks!
Faster is not always better. You abbreviate the soul of the piece.
Learned to play this song and it’s just so fun! I’m performing it for my school in a couple weeks
I was at that Point in my life when i really got angry by listening to that song which was played in the Radio the whole day. You saved that song and put new energy into this track!!! God Bless you and your music Jonny!!! :)
A brilliant proof that there are no shitty melodies, some are just waiting to be arranged properly... stunning job, sir, you make it look easy!
Ur words hit me hard
Im here after 4 years almost forgot this guy and this came in recommendation. I forgot how epic this is
Amazingly beautiful one day I will play like this too with God Grace and for you God bless you bro 💞😊
Johny you are amazing !!!
I'm dancing, shaking my head and body right now.
Thousands of people tried to make different arrangements of this song, but none were able to make it sound this good. This is what I call true talent. Bravo!
Awesome piano playing
Thanks Jimmy!
Jonny May do u have music sheet? Wanna try this too
jonny has a God given gift.....that is playing the piano
Juan Mayo (John May), el sentimiento que pones en el montuno, me hace pensar que por tu sangre corre sangre Latina. Es la primera vez que escucho a alguien con nombre y apellido Gringo que inspira ese sentimiento invisible que los hispanos llevamos dentro.
Acabo de convertirme en tu Fan.
Juan mayo xD
Respect. He close his eyes and play wonderfull
Spectacular!!! Very nice latin-jazz flavor to your play... Great performance!!!
Fantastic Job Jonny May !! I can close my eyes & pretend that I am playing..... Cheers from India!!

Muy buena técnica mi hermano.
Very nice technique Johnny you sound great !
You are as good as George Gershwin !

Pure Class. Hat's off Brother. Glad that I found this.
Always a real pleasure to watch and to listen to. I love your videos. Thank you for sharing.
Nice! I especially liked the section that modulated, and all the interesting variations on the main riff
amazing! what energy, what flow. flawless.
Wow is all I can say to that.

Very nice arrangement .Your style and frequency is just Fantabulous. I also play piano . And I also like jazz.......I also saw your free falling on bluthner piano
Just blows us away. Who are your most admired contemporary/jazz piano players from the past, Jonny?
Wielkie brawa 👏👏👏👏👏Grasz i cudownie bawisz się.Miło popatrzeć 🎶🎶🌺❤
Добрый вечер. Очень профессионально!!! Спасибо!!!!

OMG that would be amazing!
johnny navan yes!
johnny navan wow exilant.😈👌👍
Haha I just posted the same thing!!
You got your wish. Three movie songs you should never play in ragtime.
THAT IS THE MOST EXTRAORDINARY THING IVE EVER SEEN THAT IS LITERALLY PURE TALENT AND DOPENESS!!
лучший кавер Despacito
Best despacito in piano i ever seen.
Jonny May I say your work is unbelievable ?
Manos virtuosas de gran talento. Felicidades! Impresionado! Gracias amigo enorme melodía que quedará plasmada en la eternidad. La música nos une y viva la alegría!

Guy is truly an awesome pianist. Trying to play his version and man it’s hard. But slowly and steady. Not my usual style of play so a fun challenge
The sheer joy in the way this dude plays is uplifting AF.
best piano version i have ever seen..amazing😙
What a fantastic version of despacito. Loved it.He plays with such passion and really seems to enjoy it.
This is great- it demonstrates the proper use of fast runs in composition. I couldn't ask for anything better.
You are great pianist! I am pianist too, but I am teacher, now at home with my son 22 months old. We play this song too. You really inspire us to make new video! Thank you!!
thx for making this cover
I think I will make this my study week background music HAHAHA really nice like it~~~
That was seriously amazing maybe astonishing keep it up I'm really inspired and interested beautiful pieces that you play hard work but amazing.
It maybe hard work but the annoying thing is that he makes it look so easy and effortless.
Great octaves and arpeggios. Amazing stamina and technique. On a side note, I’ve never a Yamaha with a cup/candle holder?!
I keep coming back to this!!
Just unreal, as is everything Jonny May does. Wow!!
