David Bowie - Starman (Piano Cover by Josh Cohen)

[@joshcohenmusic]

2024 update! New piano tutorials and sheet music coming soon: emergencypianohotline.com

[@thatwonderlandartist]

I took ten years of classical piano. I used to be able to play 20 page Sonatas with my eyes closed. I developed severe stage fright....stopped playing...my father stole my baby grand piano when my parents divorced and sold it, saying I had been a waste of money. I haven't been able to play piano for two decades because every time I try, I cry...it's painful. But you make me want to sit down and play again. I would love to play these arrangements. Thank you.

[@joshcohenmusic]

Maybe now’s the time? ✌️

[@igwt848]

A good friend of mine told me a few years ago when I was going through a lot of painful things “you need to treat yourself like you treat me” “treat yourself like you treat your best friend”

[@cypherix93]

Really sad story... your dad did an awful thing. If you have your own money now, get a new piano and play your heart out. Stage-fright is common, and you are not required to play for anyone; you should do it because you enjoy it. And don't let anyone take that away from you!

[@AnnaLitvinuk]

I spent 6 years in the piano school and all I wanted is to play some raggie-rocknroll stuff like this. But they taught me boring sonatas and etudes :) If only there was KZbin those days.

[@beastybikes]

How can anyone be a waste of money? Impossible

[@meganmiller7614]

The intro to this is absolutely heavenly

[@alfredoalfredo5319]

i had been hoping to get more David Bowie covers, and to finally get a Starman cover from you just in time for my birthday is truly wholesome

[@Joh-90]

I love this, in fact, i’ve loved pretty much all your interpretations of Bowie and Floyd and of course, Radiohead.

[@antoninsolaz6551]

[@Jok3er271]

Radiohead covers are amazing. Love almost everything he puts out

I'm still waiting for you🥺 Your covers are my favorite, so beautiful and touching.. You're very talented! Miss you

[@masymase5079]

Ever since your cover of Space Oddity I’ve implemented styles of your arrangements into my own covers and I can truly say that you sir, are absolutely impressive.

[@juliaphelko9791]

Bowie's song sounds so light here. Thank you for sharing! 🇧🇷

[@karpakarp9201]

Didn't know what time it was and the lights were low I leaned back on my radio Some cat was layin' down some get it on rock 'n' roll, he said Then the loud sound did seem to fade Came back like a slow voice on a wave of phase haze That weren't no D.J. that was hazy cosmic jive There's a starman waiting in the sky He'd like to come and meet us But he thinks he'd blow our minds There's a starman waiting in the sky He's told us not to blow it Cause he knows it's all worthwhile He told me: Let the children lose it Let the children use it Let all the children boogie I had to phone someone so I picked on you Hey, that's far out so you heard him too Switch on the TV we may pick him up on channel two Look out your window I can see his light If we can sparkle he may land tonight Don't tell your poppa or he'll get us locked up in fright There's a starman waiting in the sky He'd like to come and meet us But he thinks he'd blow our minds There's a starman waiting in the sky He's told us not to blow it Cause he knows it's all worthwhile He told me: Let the children lose it Let the children use it Let all the children boogie There's a starman waiting in the sky He'd like to come and meet us But he thinks he'd blow our minds There's a starman waiting in the sky He's told us not to blow it Cause he knows it's all worthwhile He told me: Let the children lose it Let the children use it Let all the children boogie

You probably have the most unique style of covers, and it's truly amazing. Love your content man, keep it going :)

[@Swanesang91]

Does anyone else here find it weird that the genres and bands of the songs he plays happen to fall right on the sweet spot of your musical ear? I mean these bands aren't for everyone, but Floyd, Radiohead, Bowie... These happen to be some of the musicians who's music I like most and it seems he does too as well as a lot of his fans.

[@CarbonAtom]

I think there's a lot of crossover between fans of those three bands

[@noslowerdna]

And Aphex Twin....

[@fabricchio_o]

Sounds like S Sounds like Hope :)

[@lizzyscully9533]

incredible

[@InterferenciasRG]

I thought I'd never get that feeling I got the first time I heard this song.

Lyrics: A lua inteira agora é um manto negro oh oh O fim das vozes no meu rádio oh oh São quatro ciclos no escuro deserto do céu Quero um machado pra quebrar o gelo oh oh Quero acordar do sonho agora mesmo oh oh Quero uma chance de tentar viver sem dor Sempre estar lá e ver ele voltar Não era mais o mesmo mas estava em seu lugar Sempre estar lá e ver ele voltar O tolo teme a noite como a noite vai temer o fogo Vou chorar sem medo Vou lembrar do tempo De onde eu via o mundo azul A trajetória escapa o risco nu uh uh As nuvens queimam o céu nariz azul uh uh Desculpe estranho eu voltei mais puro do céu A lua o lado escuro é sempre igual al al No espaço a solidão é tão normal al al Desculpe estranho eu voltei mais puro do céu Sempre estar lá E ver ele voltar Não era mais o mesmo Mas estava em seu lugar Sempre estar lá E ver ele voltar O tolo teme a noite como a noite vai temer o fogo Vou chorar sem medo Vou lembrar do tempo De onde eu via o mundo azul Está lá! E ver ele voltar Não era mais o mesmo Mas estava em seu lugar Sei que está lá E ver ele voltar O tolo teme a noite como a noite vai temer o fogo Vou chorar sem medo Vou lembrar do tempo De onde eu via o mundo azul
