"0% understanding, 100% emotions" ~ UA-cam comments section
A slightly different cover than usual this week...this song popped into my YT recommendations a couple weeks ago, and it immediately captivated me. Though simple in its composition, it was clearly written straight from the heart, retelling a bittersweet experience that many, many people can relate to. Her calm and smooth voice also conveys the emotions very effectively - sad, yet earnest and reminiscing.
My arrangement is deliberately straight forward as well, because I want to leave room for the melody to sing out on its own. For that, I rely more on expressive tone, rather than technique. I wanted to make sure I captured the pure emotions of the song more than anything else. To anyone else that is going through similar situations right now, I hope that those emotions can reach you as well.

SHEET MUSIC IS IN DEVELOPMENT! SHOULD RELEASE NEXT WEEK!
Thank you very much for all your support on this cover! It's quite different from the other videos I tend to make so I'm so happy it could resonate with so many of you guys ❤❤
I'll be visiting her for the first time sometime in the near future and she has a piano... I'll be learning this song just for her
A cover of this song!? I felt this music was underrated for real
frr bro
I really really really like your addition of an instrumental segment to the quiet parts of the MV. Kudos!
What a lovely song
A synesthesia of this would do me wonders, I plead you, please 🙇🏽🙇🏽
Thank you for this rendition, it's absolutely heart melting.
Would love the music sheets for it, your arrangement is lovely, congratz!!!
Do you have the music sheet pleaseee. I've been waiting for a piano cover for so long
Incredible cover! Would love to have the sheet music if you made one!
I just bought the sheet music and tried playing it and it's an amazing score, but one thing that I have to say is that some of the chords in the left hand are quite a reach and are difficult for people with smaller hands to play (reaches from F# to A and C# to E). Other than that, thanks so much for the beautiful score! Underrated channel for sure bro keep doing what you're doing.
haha...I'm lucky to have big hands and certainly take advantage of that in my arrangements to play fuller chords (especially the tenth, since it adds quite a bit of warmth compared to just an octave).
I understand that this makes it quite difficult for people with smaller hands!
My recommendation is either to cut the top note, or roll the chords with the pedal, since this also imitates the guitar in the original song quite well.
Thanks a lot for your kind feedback!
@@justinwai04 That's some great advice! I can tell that your classical training is showing lol! I'm lucky enough to be able to just reach that 10th so with some practice I should be able to play it.
@@rylanmchan Yeah I felt this way as well lol. I knew just from listening that this was a 100% special piece. The logic in the composition is really there, it honestly reminds me of great pianists on YT like Animenz, marasy8 or TheIshter. There is clearly a lot of thought Justinwai put into this. It's rare to find great songs like this on the internet, like Ultra-rare gacha level, so I was pleasantly surprised by the hidden gem.
On the difficult reach, that's so understandable. I was surprised I am lucky enough to actually reach everything, but there a strain. I'm a little amateurish, so my advice is salt, I definitely agree on rolling the chords w pedal. Additionally, there's a couple of parts where it seems like it's best to play a certain note with the other hand than you'd expect to (for example, sometimes I found it easier to take the top note of the LH and just play it on RH. Or maybe the bottom note in the RH and just play it on the LH, it depends).
@@illymns3339 I too have opted to play some of the notes on my right hand, I mean if it works it works right? I guess I'll just have to practice to get those 10ths out though.
awww
Do you publish the sheet music anywhere? Such a good cover!
Hey loved your piano arrangement, are you going to release the music sheet or make one ? Just curious would love to learn this song too
Finally a cover of this great song! I love this. And by the way is this song 3/4 or 6/8 time? I don't have much musical knowledge so I have a hard time telling.
it's 6/8
@@nguyendinhhuy9652 Thank you
would sheet music be possible? it's partially your fault that i'm now obsessed with this song lol (don't take it seriously)
Make tutorialllllllll ;-;
