A beautiful song and a real workout for the left hand. I made a few small blunders here that I've corrected in editing, because it took hours to get even this imperfect start-to-finish take.

Souds as if the song were allways just the piano. Stunning.

Rows of houses all bearing down on me I can feel their blue hands touching me All these things into position All these things we'll one day swallow whole And fade out again and fade out This machine will, will not communicate These thoughts and the strain I am under Be a world child, form a circle Before we all go under And fade out again And fade out again Cracked eggs, dead birds Scream as they fight for life I can feel death, can see its beady eyes All these things into position All these things we'll one day swallow whole And fade out again And fade out again Immerse your soul in love Immerse your soul in love

Mr. Franklin, you’ve outdone yourself again! This could not have come at a better time, as I’ve been working on a cover of this! I didn’t know how to approach the left hand, and watching you do it has helped tremendously. I really can’t express how beautiful this cover is! You really captured the(street)spirit of this song! Its despair and beauty were conveyed perfectly. Thank you for doing such wonderful work!

Your covers got me back into playing the piano after I quit a few months ago, especially the weezer and Radiohead ones. Thank you so much for actually making a beautiful cover instead of a boring one with just the same repeated chords on the left hand like so many tutorial vids

Thanks! The sound is not specific to this keyboard, it is a virtual instrument called Native Instruments Noire. You should be able to apply the same sound to any instrument with a MIDI output.

Your covers are great! Have you thought of covering Theo Katzman's Alls Well That Ends Well? It isn't too complicated of a song but I feel like you would do it justice!

@aajfranklin Жыл бұрын

Thank you! I usually gravitate to songs that aren't very piano heavy to begin with, because they present a satisfying puzzle to arrange for the piano. All's Well That Ends Well is piano-ready out of the box, if you like, so it hasn't struck me to arrange it. Not ruling it out, just letting you know some of my rationale for the songs I pick! I'll definitely be doing more stuff in the Vulf sphere at some point.

I wanna buy a piano and learn how to play my favorite songs so badly. Can I learn to play some Radiohead songs on piano on my own in my house in 1 year. I’d be so glad if you answer.

@aajfranklin 2 ай бұрын

This arrangement of this song would be very challenging to learn in just a year. You can definitely learn some simpler songs, including some Radiohead songs, in a year if your practice consistently. Songs like No Surprises or High and Dry for example. I would strongly recommend starting with a teacher to get a good foundation in music theory and to learn proper technique so you don't hurt your wrists or back while playing. Find a teacher with a jazz or pop background. It is also possible to self teach if that's more affordable, but you must find good resources online to learn the fundamentals first before you skip to your favourite songs. Try to start with modest expectations, enjouy the process as well as the result, and you can do it if you're dedicated!
