Final Fantasy VII - Prelude and "Holding My Thoughts in My Heart" (Midgar Exit & Mt. Corel Themes)

[@The90sGamingGuy]

The piano pieces in Final Fantasy games are really relaxing in my opinion. The man or woman responsible for the music of Final Fantasy games should be given an award for their efforts!

[@Rikavich]

I remember the first time I played FF VII, after the Midgar escape I just sat there on that screen for a good ten minutes, completely awestruck by how beautiful the music was.

[@findtruth5329]

same here! and it took years even after that to find the orchestrated or piano version. when i did, i fell in love all over again. it still baffles me til today. that was 25 years ago. unbelievable!

[@Rikavich]

@@findtruth5329 Thanks for replying to my 10 year old post and reminding me of this awesome song and making me feel oh so old. :)

[@marukuAron]

@@Rikavich wow 10yr old post??? me tooo i am dying listening FF7 music

[@RoyFlush716]

Those hands must be made of gold

[@jimmyjon6349]

i have to say WOW. you are awesome. dont ever let anyone put you down. life is like a RPG

[@jamontoast_music]

This is fantastic! Holding My Thoughts in My Heart is my fav ff7 song :D

[@Hawkeye156]

would not have thought it possible to play the melody of the prelude at same time as the scales but then this.

[@AsianGoat3]

This is like the only channel without haters.

[@LandonAdam]

wow, your hand-work is so graceful

[@timothymccrosson0525]

This piece has been in my head so I obviously had to come here to listen! I really need to play FF VII. You've shown me that the soundtrack is enough of a reason in itself to play lol

[@zekromega]

you should definitely play it

[@stillflows]

Definitely.

[@11D7-n8d]

Did u play it

[@dane4pleasure465]

Perfect. I’m 33 and this instantly made me feel 11 years old again, goosebumps and all. Amazing. Need that remake now!

[@zombyra2]

[@cloudstrifex88]

Ahh this sounds amazing! Probably the best FFVII piano renditions on KZbin!

[@bessa920]

So glad that the audio was fixed and hopefully you can do chrono trigger in the future.

[@MrDragonedge]

So beautiful and relaxing, thank you. Especially 'Holding my Thoughts in my Heart".

[@NickFuzila]

[@ddoouuaa]

[@slithered]

Stunning!

[@joostoboy]

Re-upload? Oh wait. Is the audio in this one better?

[@fluidz23]

Love your work!

[@Moroth187]

Watching only your hands is hypnotising!

[@wongk20a]

I can't believe how accurate every note is for the second Midgar song

[@DavidRussell323]

Cross-overs

[@Jedihho]

Amazing!

[@hannabananaah]

Next, can you please do Donkey Kong 64 videos? :3 I have always wanted you to cover them

[@DeltaGardna]

Epic thumbnail, epic video!

[@TheKapushon]

2:50 - Holding my thoughts in my heart, if you wanna skip prelude

[@ubernerrd]

Who could possibly want to skip that?

[@SvennaCirclet]

This is amazing! Please play more Final Fantasy music :)

[@Nekrokon]

Thank you! Great job - as always! :)

[@ossdemura]

eres un crack! thanks !!

[@kristian3466]

Do you have very long fingers and/or big hands? I downloaded the sheet music for "Holding my thoughts in my heart" from your website, and I can't stretch my fingers to play the e-flat-, g-flat- and f-notes in bar 4 at the same time :(

[@MrSimPE]

same here, so frustrating lol

[@kristian3466]

+MrSimPE Using my chin to play the e-flat did the trick :) looks weird to bow your head down to they keys, but hey, it works.

[@TobiGamingChannel]

Lovely

[@francisdiogenes]

Emocionante!

[@Beaululu]

I'm almost crying !!!

[@Magus79]

And my crap day is now all better. Thank you.

[@cesaraugustomachado653]

Toptherm! muito bom!

[@neat3468]

3:51 Wow does anyone have any tips on how to do that with your left hand, I've memorised the left hand for this song (second half) but man, no idea how you do that, after the furthest left note you do with your pinky you sort of slide your thumb downwards hit the hand and move your across to to the rest of the notes. I just cannot seem to master this technique, feels like my fingers are not long enough or they are going to snap off my hand from repetitive strain injury lol.

[@CloudStrife8894]

nice

[@mikeheskett1736]

damn straight mr Strife 👊

[@TheMythrilMind]

Awesome! Could you do the theme from Wutai in FF7?

[@wongk20a]

Genius

[@orlando2814]

Pure magic

[@phosphorescence]

wish i could do this on guitar lol... nah impossible. Excellent cover!

[@ssg456ty]

My man!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@gormaz13]

just like the record!

[@arliceyoung1043]

nice pecks dude. that Pianer is doing wonders for you!!! you're epic in the truest, straightest sense. now all you need is an adventure to unravel at your feet.

[@DynGenenaI]

how does he do it each and every time?!!?!?!??!

[@wongk20a]

So talented 天才

[@TheNightWiing]

this sound's make my cry...

[@Wrendojin]

damn clicked on the song like "which song is that?" and within 5 seconds i started to tear...

[@andrewcooper7949]

Something seems to be wrong with his video. I can't find the 2nd subscribe button.

[@mentoman2]

Castle theme from Super Mario World? That would be so awesome if you played it

[@11D7-n8d]

Why that lol

[@DynamicNeglect]

That would be one Mr. Nobuo Uematsu. Or at least it would be for FF7 and the majority of the Final Fantasy music we all hold so near and dear.

[@hydrice1052]

Polo Lacoste, Luxury Piano and a Secured Room with a DigiCode, but still love it ;)

[@neojubei]

You are so awesome

[@Resonaga]

These practice rooms look pretty sweet compared to my school..

[@amylucio]
