Coldplay - The Scientist - Piano Cover - Slower Ballad Cover

Back again on YT with a request: The Scientist by Coldplay. Such a classic ballad song already this is!
Did 4 takes before I was satisfied with the recording as I wanted to get the dynamics in the song juuuust right! ;p
This is mostly the sound of the piano you hear, - adding additional instruments would clutter the sound design I thought, since the piano is so heavy in this one, also I'm using a lot of pedal.
If you can, do listen with HQ headphones!
Thanks for Watching!

Lyrics:
Come up to meet you, tell you I'm sorry
You don't know how lovely you are
I had to find you, tell you I need you
Tell you I'll set you apart
Tell me your secrets and ask me your questions
Oh let's go back to the start
Running in circles, coming in tails
Heads on a science apart
Nobody said it was easy
It's such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be this hard
Oh, take me back to the start.
I was just guessing at numbers and figures
Pulling your puzzles apart
Questions of science, science and progress
Do not speak as loud as my heart
Tell me you love me, come back and haunt me
Oh and I rush to the start
Running in circles, chasing our tails
Coming back as we are
Nobody said it was easy
Oh it's such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be so hard
I'm going back to the start
Ooooohhhhhhh

Excellent! Its probably my favorite rendition of this song. I have enjoyed listening and watching you play since first I saw your Covers. I've not been disappointed yet and I feel so guilty enjoying your art and talent for nothing more than access to YT. Please don't stop and I would gladly financially register to any site you owned. Thank you so very much, you could never know how much I love listening.

excellent job, I really like how you gracefully use your right hand to play lower notes which really fills in a lot. I'm going to try to apply that more in my piano. you got a fan!

[@PigeonPlinker]

Beautiful. I have been listening to a lot of piano music over the last few years, but I'd have to say you are the main reason I recently got back into playing. I love your style, and you have totally been my main motivator. Thank you!
