It was one of those pieces I had played for years by ear so was quite easy for me but I did write out my own solo piano arrangement of this in order to record this version. I learn many pieces by ear but when I record them on this channel I often like to write them out first - especially if they are my own arrangements. Other times I read music from books, such as for the ABRSM piano exam series of videos.
Great job! Well the thing that makes it even more timeless is that TUPAC SAMPLED IT INTO THAT'S JUST THE WAY IT IS... so then we all heard it again when our kids loved it in its new incarnation¹! So glad i got to have kids!
Love that solo peak at the end with those gorgeous high harmonizing twinkling notes @masterkeyz959 Been a fan of that piano work (as a drummer) since a kid in '86!
Sean Absolutely! Bruce is the man. His playing on the song Spider Fingers (from his album Hot House) is a particularly great example of his amazing keyboard playing skills.
Me gusta mucho esta canción!! Recuerdo ir por una carretera hermosa mientras escuchaba esta bella canción de Bruce Hornsby y The Range en 1987!! Estaba en un toyota techo duro azul con techo blanco... many long time ago!!
Iv'e never really thought about piano playing in an appealing way but like Bruce Hornsby and this track, but to see it played like this was amazing, i love how each key lights up so we know he's tapping that key.
You’re insanely talented!!! Thank you so much for putting this together. I got transported to another realm just fantasising about performing this and blowing everyone away😂
Max king and adventures Thanks so much! I’m glad you enjoy watching this video. Do you have a favourite musician or singer? If there’s a song you’d like me to do for you let me know anytime.😎👍
Master Keyz Thank you for replying. My favourite singer is Bruce Hornsby and love his song Mandolin rain. Would love to here that. If you can do that my mind will be blowing. Thanks max
Max king and adventures That’s a great suggestion and I’ll see if I can do a version of it especially for you in August once I’ve got all the exam pieces recorded this month 👍
@@masterkeyz959 I did I'm a Pianist myself and sometimes notes can be very difficult to hit so when people tell me about whatever things I messed I just overlooked it and just know that I'm striving for better
I love your videos and I don't play the piano. I had one once in my early 20's and picked up songs by ear on the tv. No internet then so it was a careful listen, search out the correct key(s), verify, and commit to memory the sequence from start to finish. It took a long time but I was pretty darn good at a handful of songs. I would have loved to have your tutorials back then. Very well done Sir.
Thanks so much, Max Shabazz - that’s so kind of you to say. Glad you enjoyed it! We have more videos like this on the way. If you have any favourite songs or pieces you’d like me to do let us know!!
Master Keyz Now how can I refuse an offer like that - thank you for the offer! It’s a pleasure and a joy to see people of great talent perform. Watching you play feels like therapy! Not sure if this will translate well or not in to keys, but if it can, then I’d like to see Chris Rea’s “On The Beach”
JJ Dryer Sometimes it only takes one song to feel like that. I often want to play guitar whenever I hear Blackbird by Paul McCartney, or Drifting by Andy McKee.
That was awesome! Didn’t want it to end! How I’d love to play that song, which is why I UA-cams and found you playing. One of my all time favourite songs and you played it fabulously. Thank you 🙏
THANKS SO MUCH, framax67 - for your very kind comment!!🤗👍 This song was great fun to play and I’d wanted to do a video of this for a long time. If you have any tunes you’d like me to cover for you please ask anytime!

That opening bass line was perfection......
That piano solo mid song, gives me chills every single time!
It’s a joy to play every time that’s for sure… as is the solo at the end of the song too! 😎👍
@@masterkeyz959 it doesn't seem too difficult to learn either. Did you use sheet music, or did you figure it out by ear using chord sheets?
It was one of those pieces I had played for years by ear so was quite easy for me but I did write out my own solo piano arrangement of this in order to record this version.

I think, more than play the notes, you can also see the notes and touch them. Amazing.
Congrats from Brazil!
This is, in pierce hawthorns words, streets ahead
Ben Grogan Thanks so much, glad you enjoyed it!
pierce hawthorn 😂 chevy chase is the best
Some things are still the same!
i'm just now seeing this comment, so i suppose i'm streets behind
Came here thinking I'd play along on my piano. Now I'm looking for row row row your boat. Talk about tickling the ivories! Well played.
Cheers, Jeff... I’m glad you enjoyed it!!
One of the greatest piano songs of all time. And you played it perfectly . Hats off to you sir. Rock on!

It was fucking incredible man. The 2 solo piano parts are the best part. Chills man. Chills.
I was blown away watching this. pure talent and passion
underscores how incredible hornsby was/is on the keys
Sean Absolutely! Bruce is the man. His playing on the song Spider Fingers (from his album Hot House) is a particularly great example of his amazing keyboard playing skills.
@@masterkeyz959it’s also a great example of his spider fingers
I cant remember the last time my attention span lasted so long. I was transfixed for the whole thing. Wow! This is so good
When you mix an incredible melody with talent... Magic is alive.
my favorite song & can only dream of playing this well, well done..........maybe one day
Somethings will never change! Huge thanks to Chris Jackson Music (UA-cam) for allowing us use of his fantastic drum track for making this cover.
