Thank you, turning 60 this year , grew up 80s , given a second hand keyboard and working my way thru it as a new beginning. Left hand still won’t talk to the right but I have mastered the notes

[@felipecortegana3209]

I can't tell you how good of a tutorial this was, learned the whole song in an afternoon

[@dilynnu4612]

Omg my dad has been asking me to learn this song thank you so much you are the best teacher!!

[@spaghettiobellios6140]

Did you learn it?!!

[@juju6244]

Lol

[@BanhyBao]

here comes the sun by the beatles would be great! Thank you for this video!

[@inthelifeofbruklyn1387]

I learned how to play here comes the sun and it is the ONLY piano song I don’t need sheet music for. Such a beautiful song to play too!

[@bryoncooper941]

Francesca. THIS!!! Was so helpful. I am the keyboardist/singer for a classic rock band across the pond in Lexington (Very English) Kentucky. I was playing 1-3-5 chords throughout. So I watched the lesson for the right hand, and the song came to life!! Thank you so much for breaking it down for us lesser keyboard warriors! Subscribed and a lifelong fan.

[@mikeflasch2838]

In the niiiiiiiii,ght! Awesome tutorial just about there! Thanks & have a wonderful everyday.

[@BradleyGunner-67]

Now I'm able to learn how to play this iconic bit(plus wearing out pause/rewind). Thanks for making another great, easy to understand video Francesca! Pretty voice, btw!

[@daisyrussell7478]

thank you so much! you have no idea how useful this was!

[@DigitalMagicStudios]

What a wonderful tutorial! I love how it sounds like you're enjoying yourself too. Thanks for posting this!

[@BitesizePiano]

You're very welcome :)

[@thewbfrog]

Your level of talent is something I hope to achieve one day. I'm not a professional musician so I only practice in my free time, but wow -- lol, I've got so much to learn. (I've only been playing for 2 years.) Thank you so much!

[@tipaklong777]

Absolutely great tutorial! Thank you so much - you have the perfect teaching style!!

[@paularubin116]

Just a small town girl Livin' in a lonely world She took the midnight train going anywhere Just a city boy Born and raised in South Detroit He took the midnight train going anywhere A singer in a smokey room A smell of wine and cheap perfume For a smile they can share the night It goes on and on and on and on Strangers waitin' Up and down the boulevard Their shadows searchin' in the night Streetlights, people Livin' just to find emotion Hidin', somewhere in the night Workin' hard to get my fill Everybody wants a thrill Payin' anything to roll the dice Just one more time Some'll win, some will lose Some are born to sing the blues Whoa, the movie never ends It goes on and on and on and on Strangers waitin' Up and down the boulevard Their shadows searchin' in the night Streetlights, people Livin' just to find emotion Hidin', somewhere in the night Don't stop believin' Hold on to that feelin' Streetlights, people Don't stop believin' Hold on Streetlights, people Don't stop believin' Hold on to that feelin' Streetlights, people

[@kojakgaming3519]

Thank you so much for this excellent tutorial! At first, the song seemed very daunting and complicated - but after watching your video and practicing over the last 3 days, I am playing error free at 100 bpm!!!

[@BitesizePiano]

well done!

[@spaghettiobellios6140]

OMG!!! a thank you so much for helping me learn this song I used to be a beginner but when I watched your video it helped me so much TYSM!!!!! 🎵😍☺️

[@ritualee10]

I found this video searching for what type of piano he actally recorded this on, but I watched the video because... gosh, you're lovely. Grins!

[@Jason1Romero]

Thank you so much! I’m practicing this today!,

[@BitesizePiano]

😁

[@bodybalancer]

Would you please do a full run-through/cover at the end so we can just enjoy you playing it once over too? 🙏💕

[@BitesizePiano]

I decided not to as it's VERY repetitious with it only being made up of 2 sections, so didn't feel that a full play-through was necessary. I do do this in many of my other tutorials though. Also I'm not a covers channel, it's all about piano education here!

[@misericordiasdomini7782]

If you would like to reach the wider audience…pls do the cover, too it’s still piano education, why not? We appreciate … but no pressures, Francesca!

[@haspiyehanim]

This is the best

[@LeahSeabourne]

Any tips on developing the hand indigence to play the syncopated(?) rhythm? I keep playing the leading bass notes on the 4 and 4& instead of the the 3& and 4.

[@wilfredricarte2061]

Okay thanks Instructional I can learn.

[@bondjapan]

Francesca is awesome.

[@anthonyoconnor372]

Hey, thanks again for your incredible lessons! I can't see the chord structure included in the links, would it be possible to add them?

[@troychuinard3488]

How do you recommend practicing for the larger hand stretches?

[@markdalejohnson1534]

Thank You!! Good video but second to the last chord in second series is wrong. Should be B D# B in RH when Left is G#

[@BitesizePiano]

Already aware; I made this video from memory and obviously forgot that it changed there. Serves me right for not checking first!

[@grudezz4436]

Second time around the right hand goes to the D# as opposed to the E that you’re playing in the third chord

[@BitesizePiano]

Already aware, please see previous comments thanks!

[@skylarwolfanger348]

[@robtodaniel3722]

Musically Soulful !!! you are !!! 🙏

[@LeonPhythian69]

on that last bit of the first turn around if you add an Eflat in the middle then drop down as you do it sounds more like the track, could be wrong am only going off my ear.

[@BitesizePiano]

Please read previous comments 👍🏻

[@dj_maridao]

Wow! Nice voice! And the laugh is pretty too! =D But... Maybe U forgot the part of the G# for the right hand. I think it sounds like (B D# B). What U think? Thanks to point me in the right direction!

[@Tom_Vince]

She is omitting the D sharp in the right hand. There are four chords in the verse. She should simply do another video and change it to the correct piece.

[@BitesizePiano]

It’s not a piece it’s a song. I figured this out from memory and obviously misremembered a small change. Probs won’t remake it for such a small human error 👍🏻

greatest love of all by whitney houston please :)

[@nathanwahl9224]

For what it's worth, if you're in a band, you could not play the octaves on the left hand; on the live videos you can clearly see the bass player is doubling the bass line with the piano!!! OR if you're on an electronic keyboard/synth, just have the same tone going on twice at one octave apart. Heck, if you're by yourself, add the bass guitar to the lower note with a split and you'll be amazed! Yeah, I'm lazy.

[@acoustic61]

Everyone plays this differently!

[@Tom_Vince]

Its not that I dislike the video its just that it is not the written version by journey. There are four chords in the verses being used not three. What point would an E major key be if we never use the D sharp in our right hand?

[@BitesizePiano]

I missed out the D# by mistake, I'm already aware...whoops! My fault for thinking I already knew how it went from my 'memory' of it ;)

[@SustainingPiano]

The two g sharps in a row is incorrect. It should be played one g sharp then g sharp up an octave

[@BitesizePiano]

Please read previous comments 👍🏻

nice my friend!! alex here ! Brasil!

[@umaudet]

Maybe I'm wrong but at 0:18 wouldn't it be better a D# instead of an E

[@BitesizePiano]

Yes, please read other comments. I made the error of playing this from memory instead of double checking it first 👍🏻

[@umaudet]

@@BitesizePiano I didn'd read all comments but one thing is sure, you are a great teacher. I like the way you explain. Tks

[@wilfredricarte2061]

Can we play another song?

[@BitesizePiano]

?

[@DannyELoi]

Hi there Miss Bitesize. Your piano tutorial was very good. But Jonathan only plays piano until the lyrics 'for a smile they can share the night, it goes on and on etc...' then there is a string part. Yes it is the same chords from the same chord progressions. But Jonathan is only playing intervals on some of that. I mean just two notes, not even a triad. It is a bit deceiving to me. The string patch is what I would really like to have demonstrated. Thanks anyway. Be Well. Danny

[@BitesizePiano]

It does say on the thumbnail, description etc that it’s just the piano part

[@thestellasofficial6918]

Hi, youre playing a wrong chord with your right hand

[@BitesizePiano]

Already aware that I miss something out (read previous comments), thanks! I did this tutorial from memory instead of listening to the song

[@squidadaddy2204]

Why did u not teach my sis in person it is way easier

[@BitesizePiano]

What do you mean why didn't I teach this in person...? I teach this VERY clearly, breaking down the sections, with added notes on the top screen. It's not really aimed at beginners.
