    Thank you so much for this ...due an illness my I'm becoming deaf (I'm just 48 years old), hearing this was a blessing....piano tones doesn't hurt me, so when I found the songs that I love on piano, I'm on heaven....GOD bless

    By far the best cover I've seen so far of this song. You put a lot of feeling and phrasing into your playing and you have a great sense for rythm, as in all the notes are perfectly in sync with the drum track yet feel floaty (if that makes any sense). You're very talented, keep it up!

    Just stumbled on this after watching Bruce in some concert footage. You know, this was my favorite album back in '86/'86. Listening to Bruce play it live is good but the studio phrasing just gets me more. You, my friend, hit it perfectly and give it the same life as the original. Very nice.

    I love this cover/arrangement. Wish I could play the piano. I wonder if it's too late to begin with 47 years (only for fun, not professional). My neurologist told me to learn to play an instrument like guitar or piano. I've got multiple scleroses and he thinks it's a good everyday practice for my fingers.

    Astounding. Just listening and without seeing the video, I would have wagered that this was Bruce Hornsby himself. The arpeggiated staccato style of Bruce Hornsby -- in addition to the feel of uneven time between the right and left hands -- make this a very complex song to play. Especially playing it exactly like Bruce. Amazing talent. I hate that I just now ran across this jewel.

    Your Technique is flawless and absolutely perfect. May I kindly ask? Did you start taking piano lessons at a very young age ? It sure sounds like you started when you were a very young child. Perfect 10

      Thanks Andrew! I very much appreciate the kind words :) there is a huge amount I cannot do, but I am pleased with how it is going so far :) I didn't really take lessons, my dad showed me how to play a song with both hands and I taught myself with trial and error for what sounded right or wrong and copying pianists I liked from videos on UA-cam :p there is a lot you can learn on your own :)) take care! ☺️

    Absolutely brilliant playing, especially impressed with your timing and rhythm, nearly flawless. I listen to music on youtube quite a bit and this probably the first time I have ever written a comment. The original song itself is powerful, but honestly I'd rather listen to you play in than Bruce H. Would you consider doing a cover (piano and vocals) of Long December by Counting Crows at some point?

    Wow, you are a fantastic pianist! The position of your hands and fingers are perfect and they are so relaxed. And I'm so impressed that you can take your hands away from the keys, then put them back on the keys and play perfectly. I have been practicing this song - it is a great song. Thanks, Peter Tavlin
