RIP vangelis. One of my favorite music.

[@samanders2676]

Deckard became the machine & Rachel, more human than human. The poetic irony is what’s enduring about both this piece & the masterpiece - Blade Runner.

[@kyle70994]

No synth required, this is beautiful. You've done a man's job, sir.

[@allisonthomas1366]

I cannot listen to this without crying. My dad would play this when he was feeling down and it was a song after a midnight swim with my first love.

[@carolrountree6268]

How very sweet. I watched. blade runner with my first husband. This transcendent. Piece of music captivated my attention right away. I am now in my early sixties and I still am swept away... ✋

[@bladerunnerchile]

your version is so perfect that I can hear the special effects in the background

[@SebastianMeikle]

I was thinking the same. I hear that synthetic buzz while listening to this guy.

[@1409bisuisan]

reallly amazing. Thank you for up

[@raycharlebois122]

I think this is the best version of this on KZbin. It seems it's very difficult to make it sound like the original by Vangelis because you must get so many things right, the pace, the timing, raising and lowering the volume, playing slowly and speeding it up. That's part of what makes it so evocative and so sad, what stirs our emotions, not just the melody. What a beautiful piece he wrote and how beautifully you play it.

[@BopdropMusic]

I've been listening to this for years and I feel like you're the only person on KZbin who has covered this so accurately; with such emotion, desire and devotion with every note you play. Beautiful.

[@colbs237]

I totally agree. When he falls in to that classic verse we all love at 1:07, he gives us that feel. The tempo and touch is so lovely. So beautiful.

[@KhmerOldiesAficionado]

Totally agreed.

[@Dryutsun965]

Agreed. Beautifully played

[@findjonmoses]

Totally agree!! ❤

[@BeckyTCFC]

It’s been 9 years since I last posted on this, and wow, how beautiful still. This will always be in my heart as well as us alls heart. You find peace with your playing. I hope you know how significant you are

[@nicke.424]

When this song played in the film that was when I realized i was experiencing probably my favorite score in any film ever

[@alexeforgues2286]

i watched it today and i thought exactly the same thing

[@Martel4]

This piece just takes me away. It's really something else.

[@roybatty8366]

RIP Vangelis.

[@metatechnologist]

Came her for respects. RIP

[@SergioBlanca1]

Some years ago I have listened to this cover a lot while I have worked. I have said some years ago "Thank you" to the pianist because this cover is so special to me. Today I need to listen to this cover again to relax my soul and to work in my room. My dog is now older and has cancer, but he is still by me and listening again like in the past. I needed the peace that this cover gives to me today to do my work. I have to say thank you again for sharing. Art makes life better. No doubt.

[@AnotherSchmoe]

Thank you! :)

[@keldor_]

Watching these 10 masterful fingers transmuting this writing into this wonderful sound just makes me cry and think, “I need to get closer to God while there is still time”!

[@theloner6063]

Read The Lost Book of Enki. We are gods.

[@pearceclayton5232]

The timing and mood completely captured. Enormous film for cinema, RIP Rutger.

[@AllenRichter-s7m]

What gets me about this piece is that the timing of the notes is like one of Bach's arias married to Satie's Gymnopedies with some soulful Debussy thrown in to boot. Its as unique as Vangelis was.

[@Crest66]

I just watched Blade Runner for the first time a couple days ago. All I can say is what a masterpiece it was. But In particular this piece of music stuck out for me. How melancholic it sounded in such a dreary dystopian world. Especially from 1:00 to 2:05. You played this so beautifully

[@dereckshepperd1581]

Vangelis really made art

[@jasonavina8135]

ive listened to this album for two decades and this is the best rendition of this song I've ever heard. So accurate, not overdramatic, even the wooden piano and look of the video fits, I can just hear someone playing this in the abandoned lobby of the Bradbury Hotel.

[@andrewgarner734]

That sounds so beautiful, Vangelis at his best,and how he makes you feel like the music came from your soul aswell as his

[@bridgetteh9148]

The eighties was a blessed time!

[@laertecambra]

the best years of my life....

[@johnnyhero4]

This is the best version on KZbin. I've watched and listened to a few versions and I always keep coming back to this one. Beautifully emotive sound and just beautifully played. It inspires me to want to learn this fantastic piece of music but also a tune to just be loft away on some sonic clouds and drift away into a blissful chilled out mood.

[@DebraThornton]

I have listened to the Blade Runner soundtrack for decades as my bedtime soothing music. And yet somehow I’ve never stumbled upon this incredible cover until tonight?!. How is that possible?. 🤩 This is simply perfection. 💖🙏🏼

[@jb8280]

I’ve seen things you people wouldn’t believe...I’ve heard things too. Like, your exquisite playing. It’s as beautiful as Vangelis.

[@nickgreek3055]

Dear God, it's so beautiful.

[@aeonically]

I'm learning this for lockdown and this is the best version on KZbin.

[@mateovalentine1]

did you learn the song?

[@aeonically]

@@mateovalentine1 yes I did. The part at 2:58 is still a bit sloppy but I really enjoyed it. I meant to upload it but I can't seem to get it all the way through with no mistakes on camera. It's harder than it looks!

[@mateovalentine1]

Agreed. I cheated and cut away to film clips to hide edits - I couldn’t get through it mistake free either. Love to hear your version! Happy practicing

[@miguelangelgarciademarinas4632]

This music will be listened to all the people that reach the Beyond. When we stay with the Divine, withe the Father, Son and The HOLY Spirit will hear some music like that.

[@Pixelatorist]

It brings me to tears Everytime I listen. I can't explain why. It's haunting and beautiful

[@petesapwell]

Simply mesmerising, If I could sell my soul...would love to able to play...so beautifully.

[@the_lichemaster]

It's as if im listening to the master himself. You're not just playing but also feeling the music. Beautiful. The best word I can use to describe this piece and many others of Vangelis is saudade.

[@corbelius6]

R.I.P. Vangelis I weep every time I Listen to this music.

Same.

[@GregoryJecht]

I'm speechless! I can sense the exact feelings as if I had heard the original one. Thanks!

[@michaelhiggins7365]

This is one of the most hauntingly beautiful pieces of music ever written and this Gentleman's performance of it . . . well I find so very inspiring. After a 15 year hiatus from learning piano I find myself at age 60, wanting t dive back into it. This video may have done more to motivate me than any other stimulus. Thank you so much for this "Gift" you may not even begin to know just how much it has affected the world. I would give most anything to play this well and as I say . . . you have inspired me !

[@AnotherSchmoe]

Thank YOU for the gift that is your comment. Words like yours do more to brighten my day than you can know. I wish you all the best!

[@joeklopp4842]

Your "limited abilities" are remarkable. Thanks for the video.

[@alp7545]

A beautiful piece played beautifully. My crush for more than two years and a half now (so more than a crush I guess) recently played it to me, so expressively and delicately that I just fell deeper in love. Tears came up so naturally…nothing like music and love can make us feel so magically alive and free, out of space and time. It was a beautiful moment. I will treasure it to remind me, when things get hard, how much life is worth it, even if my feelings are only one-sided and I know I shouldn’t think of him. I’ve tried not to but I just can’t help it. I sometimes feel we’re close and similar, but I guess it’s only me feeling that way. I often despise myself for being too shy to muster the courage to tell him how I like everything about him. You only live once and our time is so precious and too short. On the other hand I know I shouldn’t and it makes me feel so depressed, torn apart and lost… He seems to be already so happy and that’s all I can wish for him. If he ever reads this, I just hope that he won’t get offended, feel embarrassed or avoid me, but will keep smiling to me as openly and warmly as usual because it makes my day, and helps me recharge so much. I’m just grateful that we’ve met and would peacefully watch and listen to him play this wonderful music again and again, even on a sinking boat.

[@Kohlman1067]

Jon Tisdall Thank you for bringing me back here! I didn’t know it but this is exactly what I needed to hear again. There is something really special in the way he coaxes more magic out of this song. I don’t know how to explain it but I think everyone here commenting understands it. It’s like it’s been stripped down to the heartbreaking beauty of its essence. Or something like that.
