@@jessyjcjessy3139 hey das freut mich sehr, danke für den lieben Kommentar!
People are really hating on you for adding one note or playing up 3 BPM, Jesus Christ, you did a really good job and this is accurate as hell 👍
thank you very much :D
Who else is singing along in their head ?
Fahad Nazir I'm singing out loud lmao
The real question is: "Who isn't singing along in their head?"

Doo doo realityyy
Meanwhile me: Starts singing, then everybody around joins in~😌
No body talk about the piano !? But what a beautiful piano of Steinway & Sons
I’ve seen quite a lot of bohemian rhapsody played on piano, but is is the only one that was actually good. Extremely well done!
haha, thanks! :D
Who gave this a thumbs down? Please explain yourself. This is perfection!
I watched the queen video and this sucks!
@@rhigel2269 Just like you
That’s one hell of a piano
ASMR ÍNdustries and played by one hell of a pianist?
Fr
The player looks so happy and at peace. This is what playing piano is all about
0:56 is the golden moment
I have heard this song on many instruments and it was my opinion that the electic guitar was the most authentic and appropriate instrument for this song,, but after hearing you I have changed my mind. I love listening to you and have watched this video several times. Great job buddy!
thank you so much!
your version is the true masterpiece, approved by someone who didn't know anything about piano
haha, thanks! :D
Freddie was singing and playing alongside you...
Very beautiful cover! Bless you!
Dude, you play this freaking well AND give out free sheets? What a god
Thank you. As a musician who has been searching for something that retains enough of the original piano melody while adding enough so that it can be a solo on its own, I must say that I am very impressed.
i really appreciate that you did an accurate version and not an improvised one. i love hearing people use their own creative genius to do a beautiful cover, but im glad you stayed true to how the song was actually written, and you’re literally the ONLY cover ive seen that does the hand cross which i so appreciate because it adds so much flare to the song. every cover i’ve seen everyone just ignores the hand cross, but it’s too iconic not to leave out so i very much appreciate that small gesture. you’re amazing !!
thank you so much for your comment, I'm glad you like this video :)
the best bohemian rhapsody piano cover on youtube
Zeynep C search vkgoeswild's cover
Zeynep C Lucky Piano's cover :)
Finally someone does the crosshands
If someone doesn't do the crosshands, it is not a good performance. Fact! Haha
(I can play this song as well, and I would never do it without the crosshands)
@@FreakieFan that's just false lol
@@albertsstuffreuploads4844
I was just being coy. It's a joke.
@@FreakieFan lol ok but doing crosshands doesn't really make a sound difference but i guess it looks cooler while playing it
@@albertsstuffreuploads4844
Freddie Mercury played the piano part like that, that’s why I mentioned it.
THANK YOU FOR THE HAND CROSS !!!
"Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen - very accurate piano cover" he delivered
That's the best arrangement for piano I've heard. I believe it is very true to the spirit of the piece. And I especially liked the clarity of the descending broken cords in bars 60 and 69. In so many arrangements the music is so cluttered you can scarcely hear those notes which are really a special part of the sound of the piece. In fact, in bar 60 there is no accompaniment at all to distract from those notes ringing out.
Always nice to see a Steinway. My mother was a professional concert pianist and that was her preference. She said they by far had the best action. An excellent book on pianos is "The Wonders of the Piano: The Anatomy of the Instrument" by the late Catherine Bielefeldt. It has a lot of piano history an mainly how they are constructed. Cathy was the first female manager at Steinway Hall in New York, one of my mother's best friends, and even baby sat me long, long, long ago.
I must have amnesia because I don't rememeber asking.
I thought you played it like the original. Freddie’s composition is the best of course but others try to put too many extra notes and it doesn’t need it. You did a great job!
Listened to this and thought, this is very very good, but not accurate. Then I listened again, and realized this is very very good and accurate. It represents the song as a whole, not just the piano section. Very cool 👌
Of course it wont do that! The melody will be incomplete without other instruments and singing so this is an ARRANGEMENT of the song as a whole. You'll find those easily on other sites or videos.
Just like Freddie would have loved to play the piano. But you are superior in your skills. Well done!
I can feel your genuine love and fond towards the piano. It has to be one of the most beautiful feelings ☺️
Only real queen fans cross their left over their right.
this comment is so dumb
I do
I am amazed about the number of cynics commenting on your version of this music from Queen and/or your performance of this song and even your piano. You played this song beautifully, your piano is awsome (I wish I could afford one) and you deserve every success in your musical talent. I have downloaded your sheet music, and I hope one day I'll be able to play this as well as you. Congratulations.
Lyrics:
Darlings, you all know it...
Mama, just killed a man
Pulled my trigger, now he's dead
Mama life had just begun
Mama, life has just begun
But now Im gonna trow it all away
Mind blowing! No fussy drawing room piece complete with evening gown this time. The fact that it's an all time iconic classic rock piece has been firmly kept in mind. No fancy unnecessary trills and ornaments here and there this time. Thank God!
Is this the real life?
Is this just fantasy?
Caught in a landside,
No escape from reality
Open your eyes,
Look up to the skies and see,
I'm just a poor boy, I need no sympathy,
Because I'm easy come, easy go,
Little high, little low,
Any way the wind blows doesn't really matter to
Me, to me
Mamaaa,
Just killed a man,
Put a gun against his head, pulled my trigger,
Now he's dead
Mamaaa, life had just begun,
But now I've gone and thrown it all away
Mama, oooh,
Didn't mean to make you cry,
If I'm not back again this time tomorrow,
Carry on, carry on as if nothing really matters
Too late, my time has come,
Sends shivers down my spine, body's aching all
The time
Goodbye, everybody, I've got to go,
Gotta leave you all behind and face the truth
Mama, oooh
I don't want to die,
I sometimes wish I'd never been born at all.
I see a little silhouetto of a man,
Scaramouch, Scaramouch, will you do the Fandango!
Thunderbolts and lightning, very, very frightening me
Galileo, Galileo
Galileo, Galileo
Galileo, Figaro - magnificoo
I'm just a poor boy nobody loves me
He's just a poor boy from a poor family,
Spare him his life from this monstrosity
Easy come, easy go, will you let me go
Bismillah! No, we will not let you go
(Let him go!) Bismillah! We will not let you go
(Let him go!) Bismillah! We will not let you go
(Let me go) Will not let you go
(Let me go)(Never) Never let you go
(Let me go) (Never) let you go (Let me go) Ah
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
Oh mama mia, mama mia, mama mia, let me go
Beelzebub has a devil put aside for me, for me,
For meee
So you think you can stop me and spit in my eye
So you think you can love me and leave me to die
Oh, baby, can't do this to me, baby,
Just gotta get out, just gotta get right outta here
Nothing really matters, Anyone can see,
Nothing really matters,
Nothing really matters to me
Any way the wind blows...
why
i think everybody knows the lyrics already
Man, I gotta tell you. This version is the best one I've heard so far. Actually, this is what I've been looking for, an accurate piano version, one with a stable tempo, unlike many out there, where pianists play fast af "just to add their own touch". You play it as we expect it, and I really like that. Well done!!
Yeah, nice, thank you very much! I know exactly what you mean! :D
This is the best of the best. Best version,best video..not boring to watch.i'm not tired to watch this over and over
I've been counting, this is my 465th time watching it in the past month
This is magnificent! Very well played, the tempo is just right and isn't rushed like a little kid running their fingers over the keys. Well done!
thank you very much! :)
That piano sounds fantastic.
well yeah, a 60K grand piano does have a nicer sound than your average piano
definitely one of my all-time favs. great playing!
good time for this quote ‘you can do what you want with my music just don’t make it boring’ -freddie mercury
+100 points for doing the hand crossover
The fact that it is a Steinway only makes it better. :)
This is one of the most beautiful pianos I’ve heard in my life
You've got perfect rhythm! Other covers out there are just not musical enough, they play it too fast and too hard. Yours is indeed very very close to the original version. Good job, mate!
What a fantastic rendition. Thanks for providing the sheet music. I am an intermediate piano player and this song really challenged me and made me better. I have been working on it for months and finally got through it...covid lockdown helped! I couldn't have done it without the video as I couldn't get the timing down in certain spots. I still need to polish it and play it more smoothly. Thanks again.
Thank you so much I found the last hard rock part really hard to play on all the other tutorials, your version is simple enough yet captures the whole feel of it.
Thanks man, I'm glad you like it! Let me hear your results! :D
Ich freue mich immer, wenn auf solchen Instrumenten auch vom Nachwuchs in der Musik gespielt werden kann.
This guy is pretty good he even crossed his hand over the other like freddie
Kerem Kurucu ur not a true queen fan if u dont cross hands ;p
Ian ye true
Kerem Kurucu It’s actually not that hard. i play this song all the time and the crossing isn’t as hard as it looks. 👌
MWrightMusic same XD
The crossing is the easiest part of the whole song in my opinion lol
Thank for this beautiful version of Bohemian Rhapsody!
I just finished the sheet music and love it! As a piano player myself, I really enjoyed this piece and thought it was fun!
Wow, can you show us your result in a short video? :) After so many viewers, you would be the first one to finish this version and share the outcome! :D
DerLukers I’ve only learned the middle version aka the “mama” part so far . I’m learning the rest
Ok, so i get that SOME people are not fans of all of these various piano renditions of Queen’s music when most of them are including the VOCAL melodies right along with the piano as well as guitar parts, all wrapped up into one piece of music. That’s fine, but didn’t Freddie himself say he didn’t care what others did with his music, so long as they didn’t make it boring? From the many examples I’ve seen here on YT, no one has been guilty of making it boring. That being said, it seems to me that using ONE instrument, but essentially playing THREE at once is no small task, especially with a band like Queen…and anyone who has the courage-and the talent-to do it deserves a bit more respect.👏👏👏👏
the internet is a scourge of snakes.
we all recognise them. best is to try as a group to ignore them. they will go away, and their spirit will die.
bohemian rhapsody is easy... and in all candour, people are starting to make his music boring by ceaselessly copying one another and doing these "arrangements"...smh
One of the best renditions of this as a piano solo I have heard. Full of expression. Excellent interpretation.
This randomly pop up in every one elses reccomended?
Respect bro! Is the most accurate piano cover of this song and you gave the sheets for free!!! Upload more videos man!!!
Thanks a lot! You can find my other Videos in my second channel: ua-cam.com/users/LouKey
0:55 my heart is pumping
It wasnt pumping before?
Alec Limon LOL U
Great work - really accurate and faithful to the original! I covered this myself in the original studio. Would appreciate your thoughts, DerLukers!
wow nice work luke!
Thanks, Angela!
Wow, congratulations! Your arrangement is a true masterpiece. I like how the first minute of our interpretations almost sounds same :D It must have been overwhelming being in that studio!
That's really kind of you to say - thanks! Haha, yes I also thought ours were quite similar for the first minute or so (it's because we're both doing it right 😉). It is an absolutely incredible studio! You should have seen the kit... just unbelievable. They even had a physical reverb chamber and plates. Would highly recommend if you find yourself in Monmouthshire in the UK!
THISISAWESOME!!!!!!!!!! Seriously, as a violin player I look at your right hand playing the Brian May riff ( after Verse 2) and i think, okay, i can do that because of practice and stuff. But i see both hands doing completely different renditions of their vocal harmony on 'SSUNDABOLT AND LIGHTNING VERYVERY FRIGHTNING ME' and it boggles my mind how you can think about getting both parts exactly right. How hard it must have been for Freddie, who had to sing a part that was completely different from what each hand was doing! yeah. If i were rich, i would give you money just for making this effort.
Thank you so much for your appreciation! :D
That was very accurate
How did u do the melody and riffs and everything jeeeeez ur not human that’s awesome
Lyrics:
Darlings you all know it!
Thanks so much for making the sheet available, it is so accurate and elegant !
this is one of best Bohemian Rhapsody cover I ever heard, love from Poland xx
wow, thank you!
Take absolutely no notice of those who criticise - this was a great effort. Keep going.....
Thank you VERY much for this beautiful arrangement and that you made it available for free!
Thank you so much for making the sheets free!!
Weird to hear this song without the vocals, guitars, drums, and bass but it was very cool... good job!
I was waiting for him not to cross hands to comment that it isnt really accurate.
Good job man
Wow! Best piano version of this song I’ve heard!
I heard some words of the lyrics in my mind
Freddie is looking down and criticizing my vocals but this version is amazing! He loves it I am sure..
I don't know to play a piano but this video makes me want to learn
i hate it when people play the lyrics on piano.. but u did a great job
Thank you for the sheet music. I like your arrangement.
Such a great song played so well on a beautiful Steinway "D"... OMG!
This cover really gave me the goosebumps 👏👏
Thank you so much for the music sheet and for the wonderful interpretation.
This is the best piano cover ive ever heard. Well done.
Thank you so much!
You know why? Many pianists ( or any other performers) tend to just demonstrate their technical skills. ( in playing their instruments or when singers sings) whoch is nice. But many tends to loose the heart of the song. The message. And thats the most important aspect of the performance. Its that EMOTIONAL CONTENT, thats what makes it a TRUE ART. when your work breaks through and reached your expectators in the emotional level. Thats Art.
This is a really perfect puristic chamber music cover of this genious movement written in the late 20th century. Well done from an also really nice looking piano man! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you very much!
I was actually looking for the guitar parts to learn but I couldnt look away. Such a beautiful perfomance BRAVO
I wish i could play piano just like you
this is the best piano covers that i have heard on this song

This was overall very satisfying to watch and listen to
Make the tutorial version bro !
This is so awesome !
Javon Quincygio Salim Yeah ?!
This is a sweet arrangement! Love the complimentary score. Looks very accessible for most pianists.
This is absolutely brilliant!! Will be downloading the sheet music and having a go for sure. Thank you for doing this and played almost flawlessly!
Danny Davies almost? Where did he make a mistake?
This is so f* perfect , I was singing in my mind the whole time and yes this was very very accurate , great job my friend
thank you very much! :D
So well played! Well done, bravo 👏
I actually got shivers listening to this. Beautifully played. Well done!!!!!
thank you very much!
This needs more views !
The movie should bring in more views.
AMAZING
This is for sure the best performance i've ever seen! Very accurate
thank you very much! :D
Best piano arrangement of this awesome song yet! Good job
Amazing. Best piano cover of BR on UA-cam.
Nice indeed, check out BR by vika, I like hers a little better even.
Im about to cry. This is Perfection!
Very very well played ... double thumbs up
Perfect. Perfectly beautiful. Bravissimo
I gotta say, this was extremely accurate. It really sounds the same!
Too many notes! Doesn't sound beautiful. Just "technical".
Владимир Сухопяткин I dont agree, this was exactly like the actual recording. He did all instruments in one
@@luukipuuk3537 not exactly. There are errors in harmony.
Владимир Сухопяткин i’d like you to point one out
@@luukipuuk3537 Ok, take a music sheet please.
4 bar: 5th chord - G in text (however he doesn't play it).
6 bar: last chord - the top B discourage the voice theme 0:28
9 bar: last 2 notes F wrong 0:38
19 bar: 1 chord - needs C instead of B-flat 1:08 (but a similar B-flat in 20 bar is good)
27 bar: the same, needs C instead of B-flat
28 bar 4 and 5 chords: needs D instead of E-flat 1:39
36 bar 6, 7, 8 chords: needs C instead of B-flat 2:05 (but in 37 bar is normal)
41 bar 5 chord: needs F instead of E-flat 2:31
46 bar 1 chord: needs D instead of E-flat 2:36
57 bar second last chord: needs another chord 3:14
96 bar 2 chord: needs A-flat and B instead of B-flat 5:24
100 bar 1 chord: needs F instead of E 5:36
103 bar last chord: the last top note desirable F 5:50
Unbelievable! Great piano version of this classic!
So beautiful! I actually hear Freddie’s voice in my head and it makes it more beautiful! :D
