Yiruma's River Flows in You, another one of the most requested pieces to be performed on this channel, and another thank you to you all for being here on this pianistic journey. Although this piece is a stark contrast to the intensity and excitement of the 3rd Movement of Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata from last week, it is one that can really make you think. Especially with how the piece ends there is one word I feel most accurately describes the work: bittersweet. And although it's a Monday, I hope this piece can bring a pleasant start to your week :)
2 years ago, I started to learn piano and I heard my grand parents in their room saying that this song meant a lot to them. So from there, I tried so hard to learn this song. Tonight is my piano concert and they are coming. I wanted them to come because I'm going to play this song and I want to know that they are important to me. I'll try not to cry but it's so hard ahhhh.. Wish me luck ahahah ! update : I was so stressed when it was my turn to play on the piano, i was shaking and i started to play with so much stress. But then i was so into the song that the stress in me started to disappear a little bit ! i finished the song and i started to cry. Everyone was applauding me and i saw my grand parents looking at me so proudly and saying it ! thank you everyone for the likes and sweet comments ! i’m happy to be able to share my little story with you ! have a good day
This song reminds me of the bittersweet times in my life. Enjoying great times with people who are no longer here. Past relationships that didn't pan out but great times were still had. And the thought of losing the ones that I love. It just makes me cry big ugly tears every time I hear this song. Thank you for playing it.
My brother just passed away, he used to play this song all the time. I think it was his favorite way to warm up with. I never actually appreciated how beautiful this song is until now, and I don't even think I can attempt to play it without crying. R.I.P Wally you talented bastard. I love you so much.
im sorry for your loss and i bet the world that he loved you so much and was and still is very proud of you to have been their sibling alw keep your head up
People… Last Saturday a good colleague of mine suffered a fatal car accident. Despite rapid first aid by an ambulance, she died on the spot in a head-on accident on an expressway. She was only 22 years old. Had a mega character and the greatest smile there was! R.I.P Jessy!😔😖 How many people still have to lose their lives on the streets just because others are drunk? 😭 Please make this post public‼️
I've been trying to learn this piano piece for three years, yet it still feels like an insurmountable challenge. The notes seem so distant, so elusive. But when I saw you effortlessly play it, I couldn't help but feel a deep sense of admiration and awe. Each note that flows from your fingertips seems to dance, the music effortlessly pouring out of you. Whether it's the delicate rhythm or the soaring melody, everything comes together so naturally. Your performance isn't just a display of technical skill; it's an expression of emotion, a profound understanding of the music. Every time you press a key, I'm not just hearing the notes, but the feelings and soul you've infused into them. For me, this piece has been a constant struggle-an obstacle I haven't been able to overcome. Yet, watching you play it with such ease, I realize that perhaps it's not just a matter of technique. It's about your love and dedication to the music. The confidence and calm you exude while playing is exactly what I've been striving for during all these years of practice. I understand now that music is not just about mastering technique-it's about expressing the soul and emotions. Your performance moved me deeply, and it made me reflect on myself, inspiring me to push forward. You don't just play the notes; you bring each emotion and story within the music to life, making the listener feel as though they're part of the journey. This goes far beyond technical ability-it's an artistic expression. Your achievement reminds me that no matter how many obstacles we face, it's only by truly understanding music and connecting our hearts to the notes that we can reach such a flawless level. I now believe that with enough dedication, one day I, too, will be able to play this piece as effortlessly as you do-and perhaps even transcend myself to reach new heights in my musical journey.
Quick update. Thanks fo the interest ! Learned to play it and love it ! Feels so good to just do the things you always wanted to do. Its actually not too hard once its in your muscle memory
When I listened to this song, my little sister and my dog used to come to my room due to the noise, and I think they loved the song, now it's been a year since both passed away in a car crash... I can't even hear this song without crying... R.I.P Molly and Luna ❤
My brother was in a car crash a year or two ago, and he lived. I understand what it is like. He got a punchuered lung and his girlfriend became paralyzed. She was driving and being only 16, her whole life changed.😢
I heard this song ages ago and didn’t know the name, went on a hunt for it for months, then forgot. Around a whole year later, I heard a classmate playing it on the piano in our school. I’m so happy!
This piece makes you feel nostalgic... Like going back down the memory lane, through something that's long forgotten, something that wasn't a highlight, but yet looking back at it, makes you feel happy. I love it so much!!!!
My dog got his wings a week ago with this beautiful piece playing in the background. He used to always seet at my feet when I was playing this song. Thank you for accompanying us during that event, it meant the world to us.
This song says overcoming loss, overcoming depression, overcoming abuse. It's a very beautiful song and my soul floated away from my body for a sec. It makes me remember all the good thoughts and throws the bad ones in the garbage.
I don't understand how it says overcoming depression but i feel on the edge of controlling my tears. I feel my throat is choking. Still I love to listen to this masterpiece.
as a pianist I hate this piece because of hearing it literally everywhere and how easy it is EDIT: lmao the sheer amount of people I've pissed off because I have an opinion is hilarious. First of all, PEOPLE CAN HAVE OPINIONS, if you don't like my opinion I really don't care, cry about it lol. Second, I never claimed to be an oh-so-great pianist, but it doesn't mean I can't have an opinion. I know two friends who are greater pianists than me who agree that this piece is overplayed and they hate it. Even then, that's not a valid reason for me to hate it, but I still have a valid reason, I'm a person, with an opinion, and I am not afraid to express my opinion. One person couldn't come up with a good argument so they went to my content and told me I'm a "grown adult who plays Minecraft" solid argument there, keep it up 😂
One day, I’ll be able to play this song from the beginning to the end no matter how long it takes me Update: I did it I just played the whole piece perfectly with both hands and I’m sure I could’ve learned it in a shorter time but for me, 4 months is good enough, I practiced an hour a day sometimes less sometimes I even skipped. Thank you all for the likes and the comments it kept me going whenever I thought about giving up I get a new notification.🙏🏼
Thank you so much for posting this was my sons favourite song he plays it everyday for our family to enjoy and now he got his wings a few months ago and now I will try to learn this song so someone can lay it and we will all remember my son❤❤❤
Bookmarks that helped me learn the song: Intro: 0:04 Part 1: 0:21 Part 2: 0:42 Part 3: 0:51 Part 4: 1:34 Part 3 again with variations: 1:54 Outro: 2:23
When my Mom remarried to this awesome man that I consider my Dad more than my real Father this song was played at the wedding walk in for us and it meant so much to me that every time I hear it this song brings tears to my eyes in happiness, so my plan is to learn this by practicing hard (never played piano) and on my parents wedding anniversary I hope to be able to share this with them. Wish me Luck 🤞🎹
My sister used to play this on the piano after we played together when we were young, because she knew it reminded me of my favorite book series at the time. Now she’s in high school and anxious all the time, and whenever i hear this song, i always cry. My sister barely even talks to me, and when she does, she usually is just asking me where something is. This song brings back so much nostalgia and memories
Hey, I really hope your relationship with your sister improves, seems like you really miss her. Why don't you say this to her? Even if you say these words and change the anxious all the time to busier these days, I'm sure she'll see the emotion and care in the words and even if everything is not immediately fixed, at least she'll know what's in your heart and things will only get better. Sorry if I misunderstood but I felt the emotion in your words and I hope that void is filled once again in your life.
@@hasanjafri135 Thank you so much, for you kind words and advice. I found the courage earlier today to tell her how I felt and we decided to play together more again. You basically changed my entire relationship with my sister, and I can’t thank you enough. God bless you.
@@_Cragon_ Great to hear it. But you are selling yourself short. You found the courage yourself and where brave enough to make yourself vulnerable to your sister and you can be proud of it. Highschool is a though age you start to have responsibilities for the first time and you have to find out who you are and this might make you oblivious to the people around you. The most important thing is that you guys can keep talking about these things in a relaxed way and most of the time your relationship get's trough it. So hat off to you and keeping finding the courage to discuss things when you feel you need and you will have a great life.
Let's see how many likes it gets in 2021 - 2030. One decade can change everything. So here we go. For a new decade. Edit: We're all leaving behind comments for the future generations to know, to remember us, to keep in mind that we were here first. Here's to a new generation. We lived. We loved. We did. We've done everything we wanted, and it might have been more than we thought it would be. We were here.
apparently this is one of the most popular modern piano pieces ever and I somehow just haven’t heard it my whole life, tf? learn something new every day ig. Very pretty
My big sister learned to play this song on the piano when she was like 13. A dozen years later I still lay on her bed and listen to her playing whenever I can. She isn't home often nowadays so when I miss her I listen to this song on yt, it's not the same but after all these years it still makes me feel safe
Omg lol I had the same ad!😂 I tried to cover this beautiful song and it would mean the world to me if you took a few minutes of your precious time and listened to it!!🤗❤️
Omg lol I had the same ad!😂 I tried to cover this beautiful song and it would mean the world to me if you took a few minutes of your precious time and listened to it!!🤗♥️
Sicco oh, hell there are! There are billions of words through and into this song. It is literally speaking to you in a literal way! That’s what I call "art"
This reminds me of my birth parents I remember them playing this for me before I was put for adoption this the only memory I have of them I can’t even remember what they looked like.
I adore Yiruma for this piece. It brings peace to my soul where my soul could have never rested. The way the fingers dance on the keys is intoxicating.... It pays tribute that I never could to my little brother whom served the United States Army with his mind, body and soul. May he be victorious in battles to come.
I love this song. I listened to it a lot when I was going through loss of a horse that really was my soulmate. She was my world. I always vented to her when I had a bad day and she always comforted me. Now I'm listening to it to bring peace to my soul while I'm seething with anger at my brother for stupid stuff he's doing and going through mourning a friend distancing herself from me for having different opinions and she doesn't want to be "close" friends anymore. Just friends.... she's been one of my best friends for years and it hurts so bad. But this song has always brought me a sense of peace and relaxation ❤
@qiwei6932 yes. It's a saying a lot of people who have horses or dogs use. They say that when they have a horse or dog that has a better connection with them than any other horse or dog has and they feel more connected with them than they do with most people
This causes emotional pain. I don't know why. Maybe I need friends? I don't know. Do I need to go outside? I don't know.... All I remember is the day that my mom died. All there is I'm my mind. Was this song.
@@talls.j We all have our losses, and the only this we can do is move forward. Suacide is only going to keep your mind on your brother in heaven. Getting over it will be better. I'm not good at explaining things, go see a therapist if you need to.
I’m so sorry dude. That must have been really painful. Haven’t really lose anyone in my life yet but I know it had to happened someday and I’ll be crying for weeks :( So I hope you’re doing okay! Keep moving on and fighting, I’ll be there for you!
Many say this piece is overrated But they’re missing the point entirely A simple piano song has touched so many souls in an impactful way Some feel nostalgic Some feel the sadness of loss Some feel the joy of new beginnings Some feel as though they are transported to a different world entirely It isn’t about how often you hear it, but what you feel when you hear it
I love Rousseau giving a description of each piece he plays, the style, the composer, the context. Adds to the experience tenfold. This is real musicianship.
I played this to my kitten roxy i found her and her two sisters shady they where a week old but when they where 3 weeks i took them but shadow wasnt there so i took shady 1st then i came back i went to the back AND I FOUND ROXY IN THE TRASHBAG i ripped it i got her they tooks baths and 4 days later shady dies then when roxy was 7 weeks i was outside and my dad told me and i cried.. rip my kitten
I remember my third grade teacher would always play this song in the mornings claiming that “college music makes you smarter and a better student”. Not sure how much I believe that but even still, this song holds a very special place in my heart.
This song just makes me feel like I'm forgetting something... something important. But yet it feels like I'm being told to move on. That the hard times have already passed, and now I must push forward. Like a girls warmth on a warm breezy day suddenly disappearing. Its so weird but yet, it's also amazing.
《VeSinc》 It makes me very happy to know that I’m not the only one who feels like this because of music. Music is such a powerful thing, my friend. I wish you the best
this happened to me before I felt like something was missing at my life. but when I made a relationship with Jesus everything feels better now. You guys can try making a relationship with Jesus because maybe he's probably the one that's missing in your life :) (hope it helps :D)
Everytime I listen to this song I’ll always think of my grandpa. He died 3 years ago and when I walked into the church for his funeral this was the song that was playing and now everytime I hear this song, it will always remind me of him
Guys the piece really is easier than it seems.. I only have like 5 months of piano experience with one lesson a week. I learned it like 2 months or 3 ago. It just needs practice but it's really easy. Now I can play it without mistakes consistently. Believe in yourselves kings and queens👑
The river truly flows in me, I hear this piece and another river starts to form from my tears as if I've been touched by an angel through the graceful sound of the piano. A true Heavenly feeling.
ROSSDABOSS he just put leds to the keys and than they glow and the effects is just a after effects plugin. its pretty easy to make it yourself but it looks good though :D
I remember as a young teen, watching a tutorial and teaching myself this song. It was quite easy since I play by ear. I am so grateful for these online videos, because I suck at reading piano notes since I abruptly stopped piano lessons at age 10 due to the SARS outbreak way back
Hearing this song, River Flows in You, brings back high school, holding my child for the first time, my first kiss, learning to ride a bike, my first touchdown pass, the first time I saw the Grand Canyon, my first breakup, the death of my grandparents, walking through their cemetery, my child's first steps, the first time I saw the ocean, the first time I saw the Roman forum. This song is a timeless memory, a memory of all memories. This is the modern Pachelbel's Canon. When I got married I hadn't heard this song, but looking back over my life, that would have been the most appropriate time for this song. Actually, any special moment in your life is the perfect time for this song. I want it someday at my funeral right after Ave Maria., River Flows in You is that good.
Thank for expressing my feelings 🥺🥺, but thank god i play piano from over 4 years and i know how to play this song, just one more note, if you dont have friends, music will be equal to a thousand friends, and believe me i am telling you this from a personal experience especially this song it will give you the boost to continue your life even with the most hard mental problem to all, and again thank you for this masterpiece
One of the most peaceful and heartbreaking contemporary pieces I have ever heard. This piece is so romantic that you can imagine such things as falling in love or marriage. But the ending made me amazed. A very interesting aspect of this piece. Great playing!
Sometimes a song comes a long and absolutely speaks to your heart and soul. This song speaks to me on that level. I can play a simplified version of it (working towards the full version one day) and my fingers just glide across the keyboard. It’s truly a healing experience.
Yiruma's River Flows in You, another one of the most requested pieces to be performed on this channel, and another thank you to you all for being here on this pianistic journey. Although this piece is a stark contrast to the intensity and excitement of the 3rd Movement of Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata from last week, it is one that can really make you think. Especially with how the piece ends there is one word I feel most accurately describes the work: bittersweet. And although it's a Monday, I hope this piece can bring a pleasant start to your week :)

I could’ve learned it in a shorter time but for me, 4 months is good enough, I practiced an hour a day sometimes less sometimes I even skipped. Thank you all for the likes and the comments it kept me going whenever I thought about giving up I get a new notification.🙏🏼
Me too

When my Mom remarried to this awesome man that I consider my Dad more than my real Father this song was played at the wedding walk in for us and it meant so much to me that every time I hear it this song brings tears to my eyes in happiness, so my plan is to learn this by practicing hard (never played piano) and on my parents wedding anniversary I hope to be able to share this with them.
Wish me Luck 🤞🎹
My sister used to play this on the piano after we played together when we were young, because she knew it reminded me of my favorite book series at the time. Now she’s in high school and anxious all the time, and whenever i hear this song, i always cry. My sister barely even talks to me, and when she does, she usually is just asking me where something is. This song brings back so much nostalgia and memories
Hey, I really hope your relationship with your sister improves, seems like you really miss her. Why don't you say this to her? Even if you say these words and change the anxious all the time to busier these days, I'm sure she'll see the emotion and care in the words and even if everything is not immediately fixed, at least she'll know what's in your heart and things will only get better. Sorry if I misunderstood but I felt the emotion in your words and I hope that void is filled once again in your life.
@@hasanjafri135 Thank you so much, for you kind words and advice. I found the courage earlier today to tell her how I felt and we decided to play together more again. You basically changed my entire relationship with my sister, and I can’t thank you enough. God bless you.
@@_Cragon_ man I’m so glad to hear that!!!
@@_Cragon_ Great to hear it. But you are selling yourself short. You found the courage yourself and where brave enough to make yourself vulnerable to your sister and you can be proud of it. Highschool is a though age you start to have responsibilities for the first time and you have to find out who you are and this might make you oblivious to the people around you.
The most important thing is that you guys can keep talking about these things in a relaxed way and most of the time your relationship get's trough it. So hat off to you and keeping finding the courage to discuss things when you feel you need and you will have a great life.
Good on you. Its not easy to make yourself vulnerable like that. I guess that's the power of music!

One decade can change everything. So here we go. For a new decade.

We lived. We loved. We did. We've done everything we wanted, and it might have been more than we thought it would be. We were here.
the new decade started last year but I get your message

apparently this is one of the most popular modern piano pieces ever and I somehow just haven’t heard it my whole life, tf? learn something new every day ig. Very pretty
My big sister learned to play this song on the piano when she was like 13. A dozen years later I still lay on her bed and listen to her playing whenever I can. She isn't home often nowadays so when I miss her I listen to this song on yt, it's not the same but after all these years it still makes me feel safe

You are so good I cry so much every time I watch this video because it reminds me of my Nan when she went to heaven
I adore Yiruma for this piece. It brings peace to my soul where my soul could have never rested. The way the fingers dance on the keys is intoxicating.... It pays tribute that I never could to my little brother whom served the United States Army with his mind, body and soul. May he be victorious in battles to come.
I love this song. I listened to it a lot when I was going through loss of a horse that really was my soulmate. She was my world. I always vented to her when I had a bad day and she always comforted me.
Now I'm listening to it to bring peace to my soul while I'm seething with anger at my brother for stupid stuff he's doing and going through mourning a friend distancing herself from me for having different opinions and she doesn't want to be "close" friends anymore. Just friends.... she's been one of my best friends for years and it hurts so bad. But this song has always brought me a sense of peace and relaxation ❤
@@izzyherod6303I’m sorry did I read that wrong or is your soulmate a horse??? Correct me if I’m wrong
@qiwei6932 yes. It's a saying a lot of people who have horses or dogs use. They say that when they have a horse or dog that has a better connection with them than any other horse or dog has and they feel more connected with them than they do with most people

So I hope you’re doing okay! Keep moving on and fighting, I’ll be there for you!
I have TDHA, never played piano in my life, then I heard this song and hiperfocus begun, I played this piece within 6 days, it's beautiful
play this at my funeral as i fade away from this world and may all the friendship, all the love and all the good memories remain eternal
That is a very good idea, I am gonna do that for real haha
If it was your funeral you would already be dead lmao
Ok that just made me cry
Naw, you won't have a funeral, yet. Cuz 1 day the world won't be able to keep the dead. Stay alive
Dang that for some reason cut me deep!
This is THE MOST beautiful piano song I don’t care what anyone else thinks
Have a listen to 5th Melody of the Night by Shi Jin. I'm in love with that one.
u should listen to clair de lune by debussy, and arabesque also by debussy
elise w I've listened to Claire de Lune, that is amazing!
@@surajshergill7777 U shoul listen to Paganini caprice 24, or La campla by Liszt
it makes me cry and it’s the most beautiful ik :)
This song just connects with you in such a way that you'll cry if someone said anything remotely emotional
BRO YOU DESERVE MORE LIKES
Many say this piece is overrated
But they’re missing the point entirely
A simple piano song has touched so many souls in an impactful way
Some feel nostalgic
Some feel the sadness of loss
Some feel the joy of new beginnings
Some feel as though they are transported to a different world entirely
It isn’t about how often you hear it, but what you feel when you hear it
So true
This song is probably one of the most beautiful songs ever written.
It may be overrated to some, but to me, it’ll probably one of the most pieces ever

This song just makes me feel like I'm forgetting something... something important. But yet it feels like I'm being told to move on. That the hard times have already passed, and now I must push forward. Like a girls warmth on a warm breezy day suddenly disappearing. Its so weird but yet, it's also amazing.

I get a similar felling. Like something painful has happened, but you have to move on to heal, then you see something new that brings you joy.
this happened to me before I felt like something was missing at my life.

Guys the piece really is easier than it seems.. I only have like 5 months of piano experience with one lesson a week. I learned it like 2 months or 3 ago. It just needs practice but it's really easy. Now I can play it without mistakes consistently. Believe in yourselves kings and queens👑
Send me the easy notes for this one pls. I really wanna play it 😭
Can you share the notes please
You guys the sheet music is in the description
This is my 4th year piano and i still make mistakes with this piece but I can’t say practice much so that’s on me
Oh thank god u said that next Saturday I’m having my piano lesson and I’m so stressed cuz I’m starting this song.. I’m glad to know it’s easy
The river truly flows in me, I hear this piece and another river starts to form from my tears as if I've been touched by an angel through the graceful sound of the piano. A true Heavenly feeling.

“REPENT!, for the kingdom of heaven has come near.” Godbless You All! 🙌🙏🥰😁😄💙😄🤍🕊️✝️🕊️📖🕊️😄🤍🕊️
correction its already 2022😳
Hearing this song, River Flows in You, brings back high school, holding my child for the first time, my first kiss, learning to ride a bike, my first touchdown pass, the first time I saw the Grand Canyon, my first breakup, the death of my grandparents, walking through their cemetery, my child's first steps, the first time I saw the ocean, the first time I saw the Roman forum. This song is a timeless memory, a memory of all memories. This is the modern Pachelbel's Canon. When I got married I hadn't heard this song, but looking back over my life, that would have been the most appropriate time for this song. Actually, any special moment in your life is the perfect time for this song. I want it someday at my funeral right after Ave Maria., River Flows in You is that good.
Thank for expressing my feelings 🥺🥺, but thank god i play piano from over 4 years and i know how to play this song, just one more note, if you dont have friends, music will be equal to a thousand friends, and believe me i am telling you this from a personal experience especially this song it will give you the boost to continue your life even with the most hard mental problem to all, and again thank you for this masterpiece
