[@ajishhhafez2261]

I close my eyes and I can see The world that's waiting up for me That I call my own Through the dark, through the door Through where no one's been before But it feels like home They can say, they can say it all sounds crazy They can say, they can say I've lost my mind I don't care, I don't care, so call me crazy We can live in a world that we design 'Cause every night I lie in bed The brightest colors fill my head A million dreams are keeping me awake I think of what the world could be A vision of the one I see A million dreams is all it's gonna take A million dreams for the world we're gonna make There's a house we can build Every room inside is filled With things from far away The special things I compile Each one there to make you smile On a rainy day They can say, they can say it all sounds crazy They can say, they can say we've lost our minds I don't care, I don't care if they call us crazy Runaway to a world that we design Every night I lie in bed The brightest colors fill my head A million dreams are keeping me awake I think of what the world could be A vision of the one I see A million dreams is all it's gonna take A million dreams for the world we're gonna make However big, however small Let me be part of it all Share your dreams with me You may be right, you may be wrong But say that you'll bring me along To the world you see To the world I close my eyes to see I close my eyes to see Every night I lie in bed The brightest colors fill my head A million dreams are keeping me awake A million dreams, a million dreams I think of what the world could be A vision of the one I see A million dreams is all it's gonna take A million dreams for the world we're gonna make For the world we're gonna make

I don't understand why someone gives a dislike to this beautiful music.

[@ElementBlazeT]

It's truly beautiful when music with no voice can say more than a thousand words.

[@isabelsong21]

* spoiler * I gasped at the end when I saw the kid with the cello. So adorable!!! I love how Cello Wars started playing at the end like he was already thinking it up in his head. This whole video was so whimsical and precious.

[@justicenah8183]

you spoiled it before i read spoiler

Haha genuinely surprised at the ending. At first I was like “well of course the the crowd would show up”... but then BAM hello future cello player, let’s go impact the world with good 🎶🎶

[@brookemcallister7507]

How could anyone dislike this performance?? I think I need to lay down! 🤯

[@chrismoffitt]

That was spectacular! I figured it was a “young” Jon at the beginning “morphing” into today’s Jon. The young man was incredible! Who is he? Then to top it off with a budding Steven... that was a wonderful surprise! Thank you! I will save and watch AND share. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Oh my gosh, their minis are so cute! I love how excited mini Steven was!

[@DaniaBlazin]

That ending was the absolute best thing

[@premiermarbleracing]

Ok but we seriously need to find the fountain of youth for the Piano Guys. I don't know what I'll do when they retire.

[@ms.j...withsomethintsay3995]

Fortunately, I don't think Artists like this, who play musical instruments with such love, passion, and skill, ever stop playing. It is as much a part of them as breathing.

[@esthermiller3432]

Cutest cello kid ever! 😂❤️

OK that ending with a little Steve was funny. The really looked like Steve. ..........The gut also reflects Jon Schmidt. .... Just awesome

[@Jadeshonor]

To play! To play an instrument, ANY instrument! What a delight, what an achievement! My mother played clarinet, my cousin, the flute, my aunt, the piano, my son, at the guitar and drums. Me, I use to sing. If you want to call it singing. Yeah, I could sing ON KEY, but I can't read music. My song books were loaded with diagrams, notes and what have you! And I got it down to a science, in the long run! Ahhh, runs, they were the worst! Anyway, I'd give my right arm to be able to play an instrument. For that matter, just to sing again! Only time that ever gets done, is in the confines of my four walls, and that's rare.

[@busseat4335]

Jadeshonor wow awesome man!

[@JaxxChappo]

Anyone can play piano, but only a few can make music. You sir can make magnificent music

[@dismission6197]

Giovanni Garvin whenever I go over to his house(he’s my cousin) he’ll try to get me to play on the piano with him, it’s no surprise to me how gifted he is.

[@RoseMolz]

Curious about comments where the ending is not understood. The video starts with a young boy who has a job sweeping an empty auditorium. (Note the piano center stage.) We see him looking out with longing across what seems to be a million empty seats perhaps dreaming of a day that he, himself, is playing the piano and all the seats are filled. He is the showman in his dreams. The video closes with the eventual success of his talent and years of dedication - the acknowledgment of applause and gratitude for an amazing performance. The ending with the boy is a memory, a flash back, a time long ago when he was just a kid and filling the seats of an empty auditorium was only just a dream of an audience of a million. It is a beautiful story. That is, if I interpret it correctly. But then, stories and music mean something different to everyone. Based on the 1.7 million+ number of likes, I'd say that dream came true.

[@harrycraggs5650]

Rose Molz u explained that so well tysm

[@PrincessPookie1992]

I think the surprise ending the video description mentioned was the kid with the cello that bumped into the kid sweeping. The boy sweeping is a young Jon Schmidt, while the boy with the cello is a young Steven Sharp Nelson.

Love this song

[@lovetoplayharp]

Loved this. Often when a solo instrument plays, it isn't as good to me as the vocal, but when Jon plays, it's like the piano comes alive. Wonderful! And I loved the ending. thank you!

[@gracepalmer4292]

Every time me and my dad listen to this my dad says “ that’s gotta be two pianos” and I’m like “ NO JON SCHMIDTIS JUST THAT TALLENTED”

[@mercedesgrace2196]

I've been following you guys for at least 5 years and each new piece is just better and better. This song brought tears to my eyes the first time I heard it and now I can't help but sing along to this adaptation. My boyfriend and I love it and plan on using this for our first dance song when we get married. Thank you so much for the joy you have not only brought to me, but to the entire world.

[@markuswetl976]

There are many interpretations of the song (from a great movie by the way...) but this one is the most beautiful, the most varied and powerful of all...

[@aarons.3232]

Definitely my favorite song from the movie. So much magic

[@fittereveryday2868]

Fell in love with the music so much that I immediately bought the sheet music and have been practising it for about three weeks now. Sure I can't play it just like Jon because one, I can't afford a piano, two, I never learned on a piano so I don't have any idea about pedalling and three, I lost the tip, about half an inch of my index finger in an accident last year but the song's coming out pretty good. Hoping to play it fully without mistakes soon!

[@6maria94]

Even with all those hardships, I bet you can make it great if you practice :) Good luck

[@modoki5962]

I also believe that you will be able to make it possible. We are the one who is limiting ourselves and I know that you will be able to make all through the possibilities :) I'm hoping to hear your own rendition of this ♥️

Keep going sir! 🎹🎹🎹

God bless you Piano Guys, always and forever, we love you.

[@moony7175]

I just realized why Milo starts playing, than changes to Jon. In the original song, it also starts with the young P.T Barnum before changing to the old P.T Barnum. I can't believe that I just noticed this connection, since I really like this song, but well done. The change may not be at the same place, but that doesn't matter :).

[@saulfonsecaortega5070]

I think is the same place but at night and with people :)

[@Kaylaut]

Man, this is beautiful. The ending makes me cry. Thinking back to the inner child who had a dream, and this is it. There is always something we can accomplish.

I'm pretty sure this is every kid's dream. Not just to become the Piano Guys, but just to be in a Piano Guys video! Excellent job guys!... and if you ever need another person to be in your videos, I am available. :)

[@p3t3r826]

I can only watch people play piano... 😢 I'm happy for those who can play 🙂

[@LittleCutieABDL]

Never doubt yourself of what you may be able to do honey; I've always wanted to play but never had financially the chance growing up and but I saved up since my very first time seeing and hearing someone play the piano and since young I'd say is "for ma piano!" now of course that took a long time but moving countries (even though it wasn't my choice and brought many dark times through bullying and so on...) I had the slim opportunity window to learn and I grabbed it. With all my strength; I will say my dyspraxia makes it hard to read music (and it takes me longer to and I have to write the physical notes below each note + the fact I didn't have the push or opportunity I so earned since a youngling) but now I have my piano and I can play at my heart's desire, yes is not perfect but I'm learning each and everyday, not with lessons but by watching online, or synthesia versions or adjust and personally I play most by ear as I have such advantage I discovered . I'll always say if you even have a piano at a friends' house or school or uni/college or those old scrappy but yet still playable pianos...even if they are a little outta tune on the middle of the mall...start playing; no 1x will judge in a bad way and if they do just keep on playing, play at your heart's desire... after all you gotta get some practice somewhere...even the melodic accompaniment of twinkle twinkle little star is hard to play, but if you have any opportunity be it anywhere take it if you want to play it; I'd recommend to anyone struggling to express their feelings or feel this knot up of anxiety in them...music has the power to relax you and you feel good...I don't know how to describe it, you just have to try it for yourself and then feel for yourself, inside is such a calmness and fun at the same it and when you play it turns it up to infinity++++ (well not when you're struggling to play a part of a song to start with..but to that I say just do chopsticks which is very easy with 1 hand - R hand or C scale (which is just the white notes and if yo ufeel confident...and my dyspraxia is shook at this but hey I managed so you can too...go backwards and forwards from the thumb in the middle C. It's very fun and you get some coordination and feel to where the keys are so eventually you can pretty much hit the right key without looking. Where was I..oh yes never doubt yourself of the things you can accomplish. Much love, ~ Mila
