After a ridiculous number of requests for this song, here it is! This is me, charlez360, playing Bruno Mars' "When I Was Your Man" on my alto saxophone. I did soooo many takes of this song, so it made it tedious, but I hope you guys enjoyed it in the end. All of my recordings were good, but I needed to really nail it and get "the one." I think I did. Let me know.

[@LocoEnglazy]

I'm an almost 40 year old English man about to have a mid life crisis and my wife asked what I'd like for my 40th. I know she can't afford a Harley and I'd probably kill myself on one so I said a saxophone. Now I don't have a scooby doo how to play one but I can see you do a stirling job and I'm watching your youtube vids for inspiration. Can I just say your cool as fuck and I'm gonna get me some lessons real soon!

[@LocoEnglazy]

***** Thanks dude.

[@ihH6053]

Charles hello, my name is Augusto Moggio here from Brazil, follow you on your KZbin channel, congratulations for your videos are really cool and the repertoire is also great. I would give you an idea that would be good for everyone, you will have far more hits than it already has and that I really enjoy your music. you could provide the scores of songs that you publish on the channel. surely explode your hits as a spectator and I would be very happy. thank you hug

[@brittanylayton4204]

Havent played sax since i was in elementary and ive been dying to dive back in, you're phenomenal😍😍

[@AlecC0l]

Is it just me, or can u guys here him pressing down the keys?

[@jlgoins64]

I think what you're hearing is his fingers "hitting" the "keys" to press them down.....

[@AlecC0l]

oh

[@deaveragejoe95]

AlecIsTheManFTW Its actually the pads of the keys hitting the holes on the sax.

[@chrisegg7936]

Alec yeah they’re colloquially known as “key clicks.” normally you have a full band and drums and other horns behind you so the clicks aren’t audible, but in an arrangement like this they can really pop out. Not really sure what options are for remedying it.

[@brockmorgan75]

Alec u

[@sef1261]

bro you are the real deal man :) don't stop playing

[@chancebusey3268]

You've got some good equipment and I'm really curious what your setup is. You're decent, believe me, I'm not trying to slam you, however I would suggest learning how to manhandle the sax. Your vibrato comes off as beginner or weak. Put more air through your instrument. Through it, not just into it. Listen to some hard core R&B or the Brian Setzer Orchestra and you'll know what I mean. The frequency on your vibrato doesn't always have to be small fast waves. Slow it down, make bigger waves, and give your notes some more shape. Also, learn how to gliss and growl effectively. It will help you with the ladies. Most of your songs are very clean and lack passion. Clean isn't convincing. Prove to me that you mean what you play. Tell me I'm wrong and put a little dirt in your sound every once in a while. ...Also, use the actual middle D like a real sax player. I am still curious what your recording setup is though...

[@kim-karolinadaubler8249]

WOW! That was so amazing! I've got goose bumps while listening to this! Great job

[@Sundownbackup]

Need some work in that vibrato. Tone was ok. Dynamics would've been nice.

[@danielwagner4064]

I'd like to see you do better

[@TheAlmonteFilms]

Daniel Wagner Tell that to Film Critics. It's so stupid when people comment that. Not every reputable musician makes KZbin videos lol. It's just constructive criticism.

[@thelazycat5350]

You wouldn't do better!

[@zeaphonflame1602]

TheLazyCat it’s constructive criticism to help him improve as a player musicians do it all the time chill

[@timothycruz4248]

i used to play this song all the time when i played all the time!!!! most of the song is played in c sharp but i miss playing and you bring me that motivation to start again it be cool if you could get back to me but keep going man dont stop your gonna be a legend one day

[@chilesalypimienta284]

I have no words. Just beautiful!!

[@InfamousBlackGuy]

It's nice coming back to these videos since 2 years ago and realizing you sound better than this now. It really makes you feel accomplished, as I did aspire to surpass this sound and I have. Great stuff Charlez

[@itsjustmejulie123]

Geeez, I fell in love with the Saxophone.

No worries man, we understand you got real life priorities. We can wait. And while I can't speak for everybody, I'd watch those videos.
