Firth of Fifth is a monster. Anyone who can play it even passably well has true talent.
Well that was unexpected confidence boost from a comment section ahaha.
Genesis rules
Thank you, appreciate it 🙏🎹🎵
😁🙌
With all due respect , none of these intros are difficult to play in comparison to the Chopin Ballade. If you can play that, any pop song or rock song is child's play
@@billhassell434 “with all do respect allow me to disrespect entire genres and styles of music.”
On your Nord, if you find both Digi Grand 2 and Bright Piano and layer them together, you get the Elton John piano sound
Oh didn’t know that! Will try it out! Thank you 🙏
Ribbon in the sky is a masterpiece. Not just the beautiful piano work but the vocals are superb - Stevie Wonder - genius!
Couldn't agree more! One of my heroes 🎹
Beautiful piano pieces played wonderfully. Love the sound of the Nord piano.
Glad you like it, thank you 🎹
Great choice of songs. Piano sound for each selection were spot on!👍
Thank you very much !! 🎹
Firth of fifth by Tony Banks! Incredible time variations! See the partiture...
Oh yes!!
The force is strong with this one.
🙏🎹😁
Wow, this is an amazing selection of great songs with fantastic piano intros, and you nailed them all! Thank you for sharing this with us, I’m an audio-visual learner and I will start practicing some of these that I hadn’t played before. You are really talented and you rock! 😊
Many thanks! Have fun 🎹
Simply amazing thank you
Glad you like it! Thanks 🙏🎹
Well done! Accurate & good timing.
Glad you like it! Thank you , appreciate it🙏🎹
Lovely playing, most of my favourite classic keys intros in there 🙌
Many thanks!🙏🎹
Awesome - really enjoyed that!
Thank you!! Appreciate it 🎹
Amazingly brilliant…thanks for sharing #Inspirational 👏🎹💛
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you 🙏
Tanta roba Nicolas, complimenti 👏👏👏
Thank you 🙏🎹
I don't know if I'd call all of those "the most famous" piano intros. They're good, but some of them I had to roll over the timer to see what they were. One famous song I was surprised to not hear was "Old Time Rock and Roll" by Bob Seger.
Noted for future videos! Thank you 🙏
I’ve been playing The Way It Is for years and never heard the twelfths in the bass. Kicking myself now, just finishes the sound! Lovely playing, thank you.
Don’t know if he actually played it like that but sounded good to me :) thank you 🎹
They are tenths but whatevs..
@@rainmab1 D’oh! Yes 🤦🏻♂️
Damn, Elton John surely is in a league of his own when it comes to piano riffs
For sure 🎹
CLOCKS, whenever this song starts i got goosebumps, my hearts beats faster and there a tears of joy. It's the song, the moment my son was born. The most important person in my life and the best moment forever.❤
❤️🎵
Nice list. The way it is is in my all-time top 3 intros.
love it🎹🎵
This is superb 👍🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Thanks for listening 🙏🎹🎵
Great job man!!! I'm a accordionist and now i'm learning piano, my left hand isn't so good like the right hand, but i'm practicing. I love those intros!! 🤟
Thanks Darciso!! I ve tried accordeon when i was younger… left hand on accordeon is tough for me 😁
Fantastic
Thank you! Cheers! 🎹
Awesome, while watching and inching towards the end, I was like "what, no Piano man??", and then it showed up
Left it for the end 😁
No one in comments mentioned Marc Cohn. Thanks for recognizing him.
Te pasaste, extraordinario,.excelente !! Tocas muy bien.
🎹🎹🎹🎹❤❤❤❤
Thank you,glad you like it, appreciate it 🙏🎹
Magnifique!
Thank you 🙏
I think this is more a list of your favorite Piano Intros, rather than the "most famous." Either way, I marvel at your playing.
Well.. you may be right :) but “most famous” is better for the algo 😁 thank you 🙏
Bravo pour ce Medley ! ✌️👏
Thank you 🎹
Nicely done, and nice Nord 👍
Thank you! Cheers! 🎹
Boy, that Chicago “Saturday in the Park” intro, really stands out strong. (compared to the surrounding mellow ballads)
True 🎹
Wow - I wish I had your talent! Great song choices, loads of Billy Joel, Coldplay and Elton John, and some Chicago as well - love it!
I was going to say the only one I can think to add would be Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm from the Crash Test Dummies - that to me has a beautiful piano intro and outro :)
Glad you like them , thank you 🙏
Noted! Thanks :)
Lovely ....❤
Thank you 🙏🎹
Superb and accurate renditions. Really enjoyed this! I play 🎹 too 😁
Awesome! Thank you!🙏🎹
Firth of Fifth…fantastic ❤️
Thank you 🙏
There's more but I definitely agree with the list.
Definitely there’s more :)
Superb. Would you please play the complete one for those in your other content?
Thank you, if i play the whole songs i get copyright claims
Great list and great playing. Maybe a few TOTO tracks could have entered the list also😊
Thanks my friend!! Love Toto but i did many with my Dx7 so … but yes Toto piano intros are great
goosebumps...
Glad you like it :)🎹🙏
@@NicolasMelis a lot
Appreciate it !! Thank you
Nice
Brillante interpretación de conocidas canciones, me ha gustado mucho mucho y me he suscrito a tu canal para seguirte. Saludos desde Madrid y hasta pronto Nicolas, like 97
Thanks Jose! Appreciate it🙏🎹
I think your picks were spot on; especially Bruce Hornsby, That's Just the Way It Is, being the first on the list that you played.
Glad you like them! Thank you 🎹
Ottima esecuzione 💪👏 from Italy
Thanks Gabriel ! Regards from Cyprus 🇨🇾:)
maybe try "Piano in an empty room" by Vangelis 🤩☺️...your playing is really polished 👌🏻
Oh love Vangelis! Noted , thanks :)🎹
❤ very well
Thanks 😊

Thanks Isa 🎹
😊I like, all the Intros, please dont forget Emerson, Take a Peble, Tarkus, or Pictures.
Thanks!! Noted :)
Вот тоже подумал о Take a Pebble )
hey man I want to ask what software you use and headphones/speakers
By software you mean Daw? I use logic pro x and my speakers are Yamaha Hs8
For headphones i use some old Sony Mdr :)
I won’t hold you back by Toto. Simply a beautiful intro
Yes 🙌 love Toto, missed that one! Noted, thanks
I’m thankful even one Chicago song made this list, considering the way the group seems to be stonewalled in recent decades. In my mind, the intro from “Hard to Say I’m Sorry” is on par with the one from “Saturday in the Park”.
Great band! Love them!
I was hoping to hear the long intro from "Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is?" but I figured it would be a bit much for this video haha
Touché,@@SnarlyCharly.
Somewhere Only We Know by Keane should have been in this, so should Right Here Waiting - Howard Marx and Jealous Guy - John Lennon.
There are so many great songs, noted thank you
"Within" by Daft Punk has one of the most beautiful piano intros
Oh yes! Noted thanks 🙏
Winners takes it all and desparado got me☺️
Great songs 🎵
Elton John rightfully earns many spots here; the striking intro to "Levon" deserves to be included.
Noted! Thank you :)🎹
I wish I could spread my hand as wide as yours. In 'The Way It Is' you can comfortably play the root and the third a whole octave above with your left. I don't think many piano players can do that.
Thank you,i think i got that from my classical training :)
You left the best for last!
Pianoman 🎹🎵
All that Coldplay and no Supertramp?
Noted for future videos, thanks :)
This is a great video, however, would have liked to have heard the free bird intro on here. Awesome work though.
Noted for future videos! Thanks 🙏🎹
Definitely missed out by omitting The Year of the Cat by Al Stewart and Tubular Bells by Michael Oldfield but enjoyed the video nonetheless 👍👍
Noted thank you :) 🎹
Tony Banks❤
Love him 🙌🎹
Please what are the list of songs. Love all
You can find the list in the video description :) 🎹
Roses by Outkast
Noted ! Thanks
🎉🎉
🙏🎹
I can’t believe you forgot come Sail away by Styx
Yeah.. noted :) thanks
You should create a list of Elton's intros 😊
Good idea :)
Amazing video, but could be even more amazing with Hold the Line intro
Thank you!! True! Noted for future videos :)
@@NicolasMelis thanks, btw you are very good at piano
@@mineporki38 thank you 🙏🎹
I'm in You - Peter Frampton please !!
Noted for future videos! Thank you :)
I'm sure you could do an entire episode on Steely Dan intros.
Love Steely Dan! Good idea :)
Really!!! Where’s Benny and the jets, home sweet home, a thousand miles??
Al Stewart Year of the Cat is a no brainer. How can you not include it?
👍
🙏🎹
These copyright claims are quite absurd, as if you're stealing something by playing 10 seconds of a song. But at least you managed to slip through something by the Eagles, quite a feat :) I got blocked on pieces by Beethoven or Bach. Sigh.
Either way, congrats, beautiful playing!
Thank you!! Yes i even got a claim on my Mozart piano concerto upload 😁
There are two songs I kinda expected to hear but were not included: "Hold the Line" by Toto, and "Still DRE" by Dr. Dre
Noted! Thanks :)
😊
🙌🎹
How dare you not sneak in A Thousand Miles by Vanessa Carlton.... lol
😁😁
Another example of a great piano intro is Sonata Arctica - Fullmoon: ua-cam.com/video/Tt8eBaSusX8/v-deo.html
Great tune! Noted , thanks 🙏🎹
what this model keyboard ??
Its a Nord Stage 3 88
Hello where is light my fire 😢😢😢😢?!?! The best intro in rock 💪💪💪
Thats on a Vox Continental check my yamaha YC video i have it there:)
ua-cam.com/video/yHIOPuajJVk/v-deo.htmlsi=uecjMjBWiHuhOwez
@@NicolasMelis ok good thanks
Nice! But no Toto!? Kept waiting for "hold the line"
Yes i ve missed that one, noted! I did many Toto songs on my Dx7 videos check them out :)
Live tô Tell?
thx amigo ! congrats ! all is ok , i prefer "jakson 5" and "brian adams" intros :)
Thank you! Glad you like them
ESSE PIANO É MUITO TOP, Pena que aqui o brasil ele custe o preço de um carro.
Yes it’s expensive…
Plase onetime play full song
I want to but if i play the whole songs i get copyright claims
No Supertramp ?
Noted for future videos :)
Toto - Hold the Line ?
Yeah missed that one! Noted for future videos! Thanks :)
What, no "Bridge Over troubled Water"?
Oh missed that one!! Noted for future videos! Thank you 🙏
If you have nord 3 everything sounds almost famous lol
What if you have a Nord Stage 4 ? 😁
Then it is even beter... I had only one interaction with the nord in my life, it vas great, i played that exact nord 3 88. If i had enaough money for it, i would definitivly buy it, but i would say it is not so cheap😅😅
@steezmonkee4712 yes now its even more expensive than before around 5-6 years ago that i got this one
Also I have to say you are Great piano player and that i encourage you to keep up the good work💪 I hope that I will find job in music one day as well🙏💪
@@steezmonkee4712 thank you 🙏🎹🎵
this is the kind of guy that only knows 15 seconds of each song. Nice playing
😁, well i have to due copyright claims
@NicolasMelis still more talent in those 15 seconds than most people possess.
Im that same guy with the guitar 😅
Appreciate it 🙏🎹🎵
Anyone lose their keys
😁
Most of them by Elton John…
What wrong with Elton John?:)
@@NicolasMelis nothing 😁 it’s just one of the great pop composers of all times, and I’m his fan
Why is there no "Ten Sharp - You"?
Oh great intro! Have it on my list for an other video maybe :)
C'mon.. Evanescence - My Immortal and Vanessa Carlton - A Thousand Miles more famous than half of the list!
Dude is obviously an Elton John fan.
It just so happened that i found many Elton John songs for this video :)
@@NicolasMelis he is an amazing piano player, in addition to being a good singer/ songwriter,
@@joshc441 for sure !
Without Year of the Cat by Al Stewart this list is worthless.
Missed that one as well as many others i am afraid! Noted for future videos! Thank you 🙏
Most Famous? Should probably have had November Rain, then … All good stuff, tho’! 😎
Oh yes! Noted for future videos , thanks :)
too much Coldplay. Most famous would intros like A Thousand Miles or If I Ain't Got You or Everything I do, I do it for you, Still D.R.E and so on
Thanks for your feedback! Noted! Although Everything i do its on this list :)
Amazing! With just 4 Chords!
Thanks! Most of them yes:)
