Alphaville - Forever Young (piano cover)

[@heikoheerssen3271]

This will be the first song which gets played at my wife's funeral service this weekend. To me she will always remain "forever young", especially since she was only 43 years old when she died. She was a big fan of Alphaville, and if there is one perfect version of this evergreen you don't have to look any further. A moment of magic for which I'm eternally grateful.

[@user-go5dw3vc8o]

I'm so sorry, I will pray for her, God bless you! Be strong, God is with you!

[@user-go5dw3vc8o]

I'm so sorry, I will pray for her, God bless you! Be strong, God is with you!

[@user-go5dw3vc8o]

I'm so sorry... I will pray for her, be strong, God is with you!

[@mikey6214]

Still enjoying this in 2023, after all these years. Best cover ever.

[@josfernacor11]

Same here ❤

[@kittylover414]

I just want to thank my mom for letting me play piano at a young age. Even though I don't know how many times I've tried to give up, or quit, or skip going to practice, my mom still pushed me and I kept going. Now, I have quit, due to money issues, but I still kept playing. I learned to play this song by ear. Thank you mom for letting me play piano., I love you so much

[@mumuuuuuuuuuuuu]

this comment inspires me 🙏

[@chrisseagler1570]

You rocked that sound. God bless the 80's. We had the best music in history.

[@c00chiemane29]

the 60s and 90s have something to say about that

[@prajnadiptakarmakar8542]

Classical bruh

[@112boki]

Such a sad and at the same time beautiful feeling of nostalgia, reminiscing about the good times in the past and a burning hope for a good future. Beautiful

[@rimaj.j.9398]

Toms Mucenieks thank you soo much!!!

[@koalatheworld]

Hi Tom, the link is not working? 🥲

[@AgentForest]

Chills........ f***ing chills.......... You have serious talent. There was so much power and emotion in this cover. I can't find a single version with singing that has the same intensity as yours.

[@dariaarushko5251]

I'm crying! That's really incredible

[@links212]

You don't know how much this song and your music means to me. I play it when I'm down. I can really feel your soul speaking in these pieces, and I'm glad to know that music is not dead. You have given me my life and the blood in my veins still flows because of you. On the behalf of I hope countless others, I wish to offer you a truly heartfelt thanks.

[@sfflyer123]

There is a saying: most people play the notes; the rare ones play the music. You play the music.

[@vhulksantos]

+Zakey and the even even even better ones play their souls... LMAO just messin around haha

[@ssjharambe2336]

+vhulksantos and there are people playing by ear

[@romera27]

And the best ones play with their dicks.

[@tigresita119]

Everytime I heard this piece, I remember your words. You're so damn right!

[@miguelrejas5034]

SO right. and SO agree w/you! ;) AWESOME!

[@TimmySeiler]

When you play, there is a choir of angels crying in the distance.... what an affect you have on people. keep playing.. do the world a favor and keep playing.. i love your music.... I too am crying because im thinking of all the sad people that have not heard this.... poor souls... :")

[@jamescroote6215]

Thanks so much for this extremely beautiful version of my favorite song even after 35 years!!!

[@Labtec86]

This song reminds me of my Grandmother’s passing. My heart turned to this song during my grieving moments, I miss her dearly. Well played, you did this great song justice.

[@prestonstravelmoments]

Thanking God is not an insult!!!!!!! Mr. Landry is talented and yes he has practiced very hard, but at the same time God has blessed him with this gift. He would not be playing it if God had not given him this gift.

[@solussumma1550]

So far the best piano version I could find... Thank you for publishing your rendition. It was wonderfully done and it still is even in 2018.

[@Trigenetic]

The few days i spend at home when i am not at sea or visiting my girl 10 000 miles away is when i play this song on my horiffic keyboard. Still everytime i give myself goosebumps and tears flow from my eyes, it's simply amazing and has such emotion. I cant really describe what it feels like to play this. Thank you Kyle for playing it too so i can listen when i am away.

[@loredass]

Best piano cover I've ever heard! Thank you!

[@TriadOfCourage]

One of best friends died on the 7th of July 2012. At his service I made a memorial dvd/slideshow and his mother requested that this be the first song played. Ever since then everything about this song's meaning has changed for me. and when Kyle brings this mood to the song it makes me tear up RIP Bailey Booth & Joshua Hurst

[@MissKennedy122]

oh my god, I've been sitting here with my mouth hanging open for the last half of this. Everytime I watch a video of yours I am absolutely stunned, you're so amazing

[@TheWolflark]

I've just watched and listened to you. You have made a 40 year old man weep. Best 4 minutes I have had in a long time. I truely thank you. K.

[@ericastiff7668]

Just finished learning this version for a talent show ( I'm just going into 9th grade) Kyle is such an insperation to me. I really enjoy learning some of his work.

[@ericastiff7668]

I play cello, violin, piano, clarinet, bark sax, and guitar. And it's never to late to start a new instrument !

[@yumpenik3228]

a ver tocame el clarinete.

[@serenity2010sh]

@@ericastiff7668 that's really cool you can play so many, that has to be hard to learn.

[@SirHector1999]

Some journey, aye?

[@SatBchMagicer]

OUTSTANDING rendition of this now timeless- Forever Young. This one VERY fine pianist, one has to marvel- such passion AND talent!

[@sandraburden2407]

wish i could learn to play this its a beautiful song

[@kenan_keys]

Very very sorry for your loss! Glad you shared all the moments you did together…those simple mundane things become special…and May you both always remain Forever Young to each other. Very good tribute to your beautiful relationship. Thoughts and prayers.

[@patriciabrusselaers594]

très belle la version piano de Forever Young d' Alphaville! bravo

[@Thatbeanbagchair]

Accetto

[@rich31]

Unbelievable!!! Your hands dance across the keys like a whirlwind. Impressive is an understatement. Thanks for sharing!

[@sssrbk]

"God gave him a gift"? Excuse me, but this can't only be something he received as some sort of gift! Oh no! To achieve this level of his, you must practice, A LOT! Thanks for going through all of that hard work man, and letting us watch you performing what you have learned. The piece is fantasic!

[@netgezgini6801]

Wooowww... This is a very touching and emotional cover version. It could be one of the most rocking tunes on the net ever!

[@blasernestogodoy2697]

genial, muy buena canción y excelente interpretación amigo

[@KeterLordFR]

Wow. I was mostly listening to this while scrolling through the comments, when the video hit 2:45 and I IMMEDIATELY got back to the video. It's like I had to watch you play this, my hand moved on it's own. That's some intense power there. I even stopped moving through that entire part. Your music is so mesmerizing :D

[@HeyItsRonHere]

Let's dance in style, let's dance for a while Heaven can wait, we're only watching the skies Hoping for the best but expecting the worst Are you gonna drop the bomb or not? Let us die young or let us live forever We don't have the power but we never say never Sitting in a sandpit, life is a short trip The music's for the sad men Can you imagine when this race is won Turn our golden faces into the sun Praising our leaders, we're getting in tune The music's played by the, the mad men Forever young, I want to be forever young Do you really want to live forever, forever and ever? Forever young, I want to be forever young Do you really want to live forever? Forever young Some are like water, some are like the heat Some are a melody and some are the beat Sooner or later, they all will be gone Why don't they stay young? It's so hard to get old without a cause I don't want to perish like a fading horse Youth's like diamonds in the sun And diamonds are forever So many adventures couldn't happen today So many songs we forgot to play So many dreams swinging out of the blue We let them come true Forever young, I want to be forever young Do you really want to live forever, forever and ever? Forever young, I want to be forever young Do you really want to live forever, forever and ever? Forever young, I want to be forever young Do you really want to live forever?

[@sharonaldridge3332]

Hey It's Ron Here ..ah now, Ron..to this music, your words in reply..as I search for "...young.." yes..just ..yes!

[@ennediend2865]

Great inspiration 👍 by Marian Gold I love these lyrics...

[@sampark3998]

Over a year since I viewed this, still beautifully mind blowing, the attention to detail is so good, I wish I learned how to play the keys.

[@NicolleSpencer7711]

That was incredible, my favorite song ever, very well done to say the least! Wow!!

[@praveentitus7193]

You're truly spectacular - to play Forever Young without absolutely any accompaniment and yet conveying that same, if not better, effect is nothing short of genius. Hope u r tasting success in the music industry as you deserve to...

[@markusmittwoch1398]

Dem ist nichts hinzuzufügen.👍 Wahnsinn eine unglaubliche Leistung.

[@4everkko]

This is a masterpiece sir. Very well played. Congratulations.

[@twicerack]

Mr. Landry, outstanding. I would have to say this is the most beautiful cover of a song that I have ever heard. If you are not a professional musician/composer the world is missing out. Do it.

[@stevenolson6012]

How is it possible to combine Beethoven and Alphaville? INCREDIBLE! LOVE IT!!!

[@alexbyearpiano]

Perfect progression till the end. Best part when your right hand starts flying around like a child. Forever young!

Wonderful solo .Spirit lifting all the way.

[@brontox098]

I can just reach an octave plus one, but I struggle. I wish I had bigger hand to satisfy the chord requirement, but I'm nearly twenty, so it's a little infeasible that my hands are going to grow. I guess I could modify the chord.... Anyway, sensational work, Sir. *tips hat*.

Bravo, this is amazing; I like so much that song. When my parents got married, one of my uncles made a video with photos of my parents and their lives since they were little, and my father chose this song for him. I heard this song since I was a baby, and I like it so much. Thank you, your cover is great.

[@herbienbrian2]

I'll tell you how that actually goes in real life, yes the girls will come, but only for the music. The second you try to go past that they bolt. Girls are fucking weird, they all have this unrealistic idea about what a guy is from idiotic media brainwashing.

[@Toepferle]

It's so touching my emotions. Three times in the last couple of years that I fell in love hopelessly, everytime I get back to this version of the song. Now, I also started playing it myself. Till I am as good as you, well, I will probably get over it. But there will be a fourth time coming, I am pretty sure, the only good thing about being lovesick. I start playing the good music.

[@MeMissL]

Why am I crying? Perhaps I miss my dog? My childhood (though I'm sixteen)? Regular Show? Adventure Time? My Ability to think straight? Whatever the case, this is going to help. My comment is one out of (currently) 1,268. Maybe someone or the KZbinr will read this, and understand. There is so much value and beauty behind this.

[@Gamermods0975]

We long for the past because we can only experience it once. One day we'll be looking back in 20 years time thinking about the good times now. The fact is that we should cherish these days and the people around us now and then we can truly enjoy life.
