Don't Do Sadness/Blue Wind (Spring Awakening piano karaoke cover)

[@aceofspades02]

I had piano classes when I was 15. I'm 45 now, and this song made me feel like playing again. But it's hard for me to learn this way. I'd love if someone could post a video like this with the camera getting the keyboard from above. This angle, I can't get the keys that are being played. But awesome play, man! Thanks for sharing this!

[@TheRadioactiveJO]

This is so amazingly helpful. It's hard to find good accompaniment tracks for these songs and you play with great feeling. So refreshing! Keep it up, please, for the sake of vocal students :) and broadway lovers

[@Titogleek]

I beg of you, please do a tutorial. Favorite song.

[@Dramatic_News]

Omg this was so fun singing to

[@libertyvz9]

OMG OMG OMG YOU DID SA! GAH! NOw if only you had The dark I know well , mam who bore me and The Song Of Purple Summer. You would then be my hero!

[@zoomzoomz05]

this arrangement is SO much better than the one available to buy ... im hoping my by-ear skills are at least good enough to combine the two ...

[@sarahwood5997]

Thank you so much!!! I'm going to sing the Blue Wind part for an audition soon and this was very helpful! You're very talented!

[@irenek518]

my favorite song in the show too. and you played this song really well. thanks so much. it really is the best piano version i've heard

[@musicalmacken89]

dude you've got awesome fingers... and you are just plain awesome... please keep those fingers healthy

[@strauch2014]

i just jammed out all by myself in my dorm. awesome. awesome.

[@anniej456]

wow! i wish i used this instrumental when i recorded blue wind. its amazing!

[@tktakaishi]

oh wow that was beautiful. amazing good job!! :)

[@sarielle12]

my favorite song of the show as well :D i have been looking for the accompaniment for ages! i am not nearly good enough to do it justice on the piano, esp since i cant help but sing along. thanks so much!

[@SomeonewhoisFrench]

Whoa, amazing! You have wonderful talent!

[@kevisaurus]

Beautiful job. I love singing along to this.

[@allieskater818]

this is wonderful and i love spring awakening so much!!! is this the arrangement from the piano book? if not, where can you get this one?

[@meltalviel]

Or for that matter, *anything* from The Last Five Years? TLFY is seriously underappreciated ;-; My favourite song to play from there is definitely Goodbye Until Tomorrow/I Could Never Rescue You, but there's plenty of songs I'm sure would be fun to figure out on the piano :D

[@jasthepoet]

Who could possibly dislike this?

[@maddycunningham]

Broadway tunes put to piano=AMAZING!!!

[@lyndes33]

Seriously, I have no idea how you did this without sheet music. You are magic. This is absolutely beautiful and I would be eternally indebted if you made a tutorial.

[@AlexSimpsonArtiste]

So, So, So, So good! Keep on playing the piano, you're great!

[@hpfan]

Superb job! You're very talented, and I love the song choice. The fact that you can play without sheet music is astounding. Great job!

Don't Do Sadness / Blue Wind Lolo, John Gallagher Jr. (Awful sweet to be a little butterfly Just swinging over things and nothing deep inside Nothing going, going wild in you, you know You're slowing by the riverside, a-floating high and blue) (Or maybe cool to be a little summer wind Like once through everything and then away again With the taste of dust in your mouth all day But no need to know Like sadness, you just sail away) 'Cuz you know I don't do sadness Not even a little bit Just don't need it in my life Don't want any part of it I don't do sadness Hey, I've done my time Lookin' back on it all, man, it blows my mind I don't do sadness So been there Don't do sadness Just don't care (Moritz Steephle Ilse, you frightened me What are you looking for? If only I knew Then what's the use of looking? I'm on the way home, want to come? I don't know God, you remember how we used to run back To my house and play pirates Vend LeBergman, Melchior Gabor, you and I?) Spring and summer Every other day Blue wind gets so sad Blowing through the thick corn Through the bales of hay Through the open books on the grass Spring and summer Sure when its autumn Wind always wants to Creep up and haunt you When silence got you If it's heartache well, it's sorrow Winter wind sings under cries Spring and summer Every other day Blue wind gets so pained Blowing through the thick corn Through the bales of hay Through the sudden drift of the rain Spring and summer (Actually I better go Walk as far as my house with me I wish I could Then why don't you? Eighty lines of virgils, sixteen equations, a paper on the hopsboard) So maybe I should be some kind of laundry line Hang their things on me, and I will swing 'em dry You just wave in the sun through the afternoon and then see They come to set you free beneath the rising moon 'Cuz you know Spring and summer I don't do sadness Every other day Not even a little bit Blue wind gets so lost Just don't need it in my life Goin' through the big corn and bales of hay Don't want any part of it Spring and summer I don't do sadness Every other day Hey, I've done my time Blue wind gets so lost Lookin' back on it all and it blows my mind Goin' through the big corn and bales of hay I don't do sadness The wandering clouds of the dust So been there, don't do sadness Spring and summer Just don't care

[@allstars617]

amazinggggg

[@RENThead311]

I saw that for the sheet music its a C Major. Is that the key you're playing it in? I ask only bc I know I can sing this version.

[@greycuabo9927]

would it be ok if i used this cover for something? i will credit and link to you

[@biohazardtoall89]

Can you PLEASE make a tutorial?!?!

[@simomdavis1325]

thank yo so much this is going to help me

[@MELstolethestage]

shit. youre brilliant. i wondered have you learned or could you learn "A Miracle Would Happen" from The Last Five"

[@JoshFreilich]

Yes. It has no sharps or flats, so it can be either A minor or C major.

[@BwayBoy520]

luvit!

[@thaliaramcharitar]

1:40

[@JoshFreilich]

I forget it all.

[@JoshFreilich]

With "I Could Never Rescue You"?

[@JoshFreilich]

Yes I did.

[@JoshFreilich]

I don't think a video tutorial would work well with a song like this because it has many different tempi and chords that it's impossible to keep track of. I can do it with "Word of Your Body" or "Mirror-Blue Night", though.

[@shadowfox2113]

Bravo

[@richardgoff1090]

Thank you!!!!

[@OzzieFRESH]

whenever i sing this song, i use THIS instrumental.

[@miii]

[@ar3thur2003]

[@JoshFreilich]

I didn't use sheet music.

[@SAEskridge]

beautiful. nuff said. my favorite song of all time, i actually did a cover of this with my friend on my page if you guys ever wanna check it out.

[@Melah90]

OMG! Your piano playing is amazing! Are you Jewish? If so I'm definitely propsing to you. hahaha
