Thank you sooo much for doing this with the melody and allowing us to access the tutorials for free. I’m so excited to have a go at learning this emotional piece. Thanks again 👍🏻

[@HDpiano]

Our pleasure, dude!

[@jaimeperry7326]

Eric Clapton - Tears in Heaven written for his late son. Its the only thing I can think of that has the power of HURT

[@HDpiano]

[@jgpix1]

Wow this arrangement is brilliant. Check the way Joe moves seamlessly between the melody and that background Am chord. Nice!

[@HDpiano]

Cheers, will pass along your compliment to Chris.

[@andy_hawkins]

HD is such a great resource but particularly Joe - thanks as always. And yes, this song is one of the most extraordinary pieces of music I’ve ever heard. Play it slowly with lots of sustain and let it all in.

[@joehansen5041]

Horatio Spafford "it is well with my soal" is one of those songs that knowing the story as to where he wrote it moves your heart more.

[@danhoulf1623]

Joe - this is really fantastic. Thank you.

[@HDpiano]

Thanks, DH!

[@bingbongboomboom]

If you haven’t been to the Johnny Cash museum in Nashville, I highly recommend it!! It’s very moving! This video plays you as the last exhibit...

[@HDpiano]

oh wow

[@bingbongboomboom]

@@HDpiano wait I should correct my statement... not this HDPiano video... The music video for Hurt. hehe.

[@hedwich1476]

Thankyou so much for making this!

[@HDpiano]

Of course!

[@dandk_]

Hearing Simon & Garfunkel perform the sound of silence live was quite sad, something about how much more fragile their older voices were compared to the original made it a lot more powerful I think! Not quite as sad as Hurt and the video with Johnny Cash though.

[@HDpiano]

Oooh for sure.

[@andrewharris3417]

It’s also my birthday today (16th July) so this feels like a present from hd piano 😄😄

[@HDpiano]

Happy birthday, AH!

Another song...somewhere over the Rainbow....version by Israel Kamakawiwo’ole . He passed away after making quite a following with this song and how suiting that they put his ashes in the ocean while this song was playing and they made it a celebration.

[@HDpiano]

Oh dang, wow.

[@user-tj4kx3wz6m]

I must say, I love the way you play this, but I wish you had put the whole thing on so I could hear it. ❤

[@austinhumphries5023]

Grateful Dead - brokedown palace Jerry Garcia died shortly after writing it, the first time they performed it live after his death gives me a similar feeling

[@HDpiano]

Oh good ones!

[@phillbeesley2940]

'Keep me in your heart' by Warren Zevon was released shortly before he died

[@zarinafj1082]

[@HDpiano]

Thanks! :)

[@PaulWelsh]

Nirvana's rendition of Where did you sleep last night on MTV unplugged comes to mind. It wqs an emotional performance and I think it was Kurt Cobains last live performance before his tragic suicide.

[@LukeFaulkner]

Queen-Mother Love, it was the last song that Mercury recorded, and he couldn't even finish it, after his death, Brian May sang the last bit...

[@HDpiano]

oof

[@andrewharris3417]

A sad piece of music is the lonely man theme from the Incredible Hulk. If you research the actor bill bixby he had a hard life. He died aged 59. A hd piano tutorial would be great *hint hint*

[@HDpiano]

Oh lovely.

[@blainemont1014]

I just bought a Alexis talent61 keyboard I don't know how to get the tone or rhythm right to match this. Any help anyone can over will be much appreciated

[@austinclark4113]

When will the sheet music be added to the website?

[@HDpiano]

Very soon!

[@givebox9017]

I very much enjoy your videos. But can you start placing the Chords in there so its a but easier to identify what you are playing? Thanks!

[@HDpiano]

neat idea, we'll see

[@Reddog5546]

I feel like every piano tutorial video on KZbin is in Am/C.

[@HDpiano]

Well it's the key that Cash recorded in :)

[@ericgilman6170]

Chris Cornell's cover of nothing compares to you. Belongs on the incredibly sad music list.

Hurt came out with the album The Downward Spiral by NIN in 1994. Johnny Cash COVERD Nine Inch Nails in 2002. This song is not by Johnny Cash.

Yep! We're teaching Cash's version though.

That's actually kind of comical... 😂 Not trying to be rude. That would be like if Elvis sang a song about siting on a toilet and he died on the toilet.

You do realize that Johnny Cash would be original artist and Nine Inch Nails did the cover….

[@HDpiano]

Nope, you'd think so - but it's actually the other way around, surprisingly!

[@Petetony]

I disagree with putting the melody or any arrangement that isnt piano in the original. I want to learn songs the way I heard them in the original cord progressions and notes.

[@HDpiano]

Fair take, that's mostly what we do

[@matt54321100]

Really??? By Johnny Cash???

[@jacobpretl4376]

I mean this in the nicest way possible... I think the only reason that u guys are not getting as many views as other piano channels is because you guys do stupid songs... I stopped paying because I don't want to learn these dumb songs
