HDpiano Hello! Can you show lemonade -passion?? ı really want to play that song!I hope you will notice me. Thanks!

[@kaylatrocino7251]

HDpiano you are so beautiful joe cocker

[@riballion]

I came here because of The Walking Dead season 10 final episode. I can not believe that you made this THANK YOUUUUUUUU

[@HDpiano]

YOU'RE WELCOME

[@danielbravo7854]

Me too 🤭

[@IAM4ever]

I just learned today that Billy Preston and Bruce Fisher wrote this song. I love Billy’s version as well as Joe Cocker’s. Wish I knew about Billy’s when I first heard Joe’s.

[@gabrielapfel6467]

Dennis Wilson of the Beach Boys actually is an uncredited writer on the Billy Preston original track. Beautiful song in general

[@zachhopkins9719]

Neighbor gave me a nice piano a few months after my first daughter was born…. Just finished learning the 8 keys for Kanye’s song, run away… now I somehow find myself here and have a whole new appreciation for a song I already have loved since the little rascal days. Listening to the keys opened a whole new world to music. Now I will try to learn the chores to play for her when she’s older. Wish me luck lol I’d say I have no experience but… I know a Kanye song😂

[@matthieu9619]

I've learned to play It will come in time from Billy Preston & Syreeta which is an amazing song. It's nice to hear young muscisians can apriciate a great pianist as Billy Preston 😊

[@teedtad2534]

Nice! Well done! He names EACH keynote and or chords! This is helps with counting out loud! ⭐♾️♾️⭐. Beautiful song!

[@g10ronaldinho]

Billy Preston?! I didn't know he wrote this! Thanks for the 411. He's legit. I first heard of him after watching the Beatles "rooftop" concert. He's playing piano with them. "Get Back" in particular is "groovy". Def worth a look and listen

[@HDpiano]

Yuuuup!

[@janlimfueco8006]

The colored graphics helps a lot, and your calm demeanor makes it easy to grasp what you are imparting to the learner. Thanks also for the ad lib innuendos of knowledge about the song and the song writer as well. Please continue to share your ' Musical Blessings' God's Grace be with you.

[@HDpiano]

Much love!

[@danziehli1722]

I think I first heard about Billy Preston listening to the 2001 Eric Clapton’s concert tour « One More Car, One More Rider ». Later, I heard about his gospel compositions or renditions and of course, discovered that he actually wrote « You are So Beautiful to Me » before the Joe Cocker’s version (which version is featured in the movie Carlito’s Way and has an excellent and powerful piano/vocal live version in a 1992 Joe Cocker’s concert in Germany). There is a great Billy Preston’s live version in Germany, too.

[@ronaldtant3196]

Yet another great lesson from Devon ,great piano playing on a wonderful song ,thank you so much .

[@HDpiano]

You bet, Ronald!

[@orsolyanagy7076]

It's amazing what you're doing! Thanks a lot! ❤️

[@HDpiano]

Totes welcome.

[@renman103]

although Billy Preston wrote this song, it was the late great Nicky Hopkins playing piano on this Joe cocker version, he came up (in my opinion) with one of the most beautiful intros to any song ever in this song

[@HDpiano]

Right on, that's a fair take.

[@YouDcm]

And Nicky Hopkins also played the piano on The Who's, "The Song is Over". You can really hear his style in both songs

[@shirleyanngilbreath4353]

Wow, thanks for this lesson

[@thefamilyfun2023]

What an amazing way to teach! Thank you very much I'm going to learn it from my wife birthday.

[@HDpiano]

awww so sweet

[@luisgm7664]

Wow! You maked it beautiful to learn!

[@HDpiano]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@HDpiano]

Also, check out that sustain pedal inclusion! When the background is lighter, the sustain pedal is being depressed. Pretty cool, eh!?

[@LukeTheringMusic]

Sweet!

[@user-mn5lw3um7t]

wow thats amazing!

[@HDpiano]

Sure is ;)

[@user-mn5lw3um7t]

HDpiano I think I have a recommendation do you think you could possibly play on the paino Still fighting it by Ben Folds?

[@MYFAVORITECHRISTMAS]

Awesome

[@asessins7634]

Excellent video thank you very much

[@HDpiano]

You are welcome!

[@MsHollyMusic]

I absolutely love and appreciate this channel. You guys are great teachers, and you have such a versatile selection of songs. Big Thank you from a beginner!

[@HDpiano]

[@ekoprasytio9536]

Yeah, I love oldies song

[@HDpiano]

Woot woot.

[@mfilms1721]

Hii It would really help me out if someone could help me with the following question: Im not very experienced with the sustain pedal (I just started playing piano) (great lessons btw👌🏼) so I have a hard time trying to use it because I dont know how to use it in the songs. So my question is : where can I find something that tells me when and how I have to use the pedal in all the songs you guys teach me/us? Great vids and lessons, keep up the great work. 💯 thanks for the help

[@HDpiano]

Two answers. 1.) Watch this video for an applicable overview: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bXnNlIebabCDeaM and 2.) Our new graphics feature sustain pedal information! Check this one out, when the background is lighter, Devon is depressing the pedal :)

[@mfilms1721]

thanks helped me out alot, you guys are amazing

[@insidiosity]

I just find the sustain automatic for me. my foot knows when to press. btw keep your heel on the ground when you use the pedal. It's a good habit to get into doing.

[@ryanwong9085]

I would love it if you guys did Hotel California by the Eagles. I've been trying to learn it, but no other tutorials top you guys,

[@ryanwong9085]

HDpiano I knew that...sorry haha will do!

[@martin6600]

[@HDpiano]

Siiiick!

[@youngyeti3003]

next can you do " All Time Low" by Jon Bellion

[@cael3528]

What key is this song in because I’m confused if it’s a flat how come f sharp or g flat is played so much when it’s not in that key ?

[@HDpiano]

It's in Ab! But it uses the Gb chord, which is the lowered 7th scale degree (bVII). So you're right, that's outside of the key, strictly speaking.

[@pichi3448]

please play In a Week by Hozier!

Fun fact, written by Billy Preston and Dennis Wilson from the Beachboys, only Dennis turned down a songwriting credit.

[@HDpiano]

interesting!

4th comment!

[@HDpiano]

WOWWW

[@fxsrider]

Nice intro. Too bad you couldn't give the whole lesson but I understand. When people need to have their cars fixed I pull the same trick. I'll get it started for free, then you need to bring it into my shop so I can extract the money from the wallet.

Buena enseñanza pero no puedo 😢😢

[@ikeeguaoge977]

Who else thought that this was an "empire" song until you saw the artist name?

[@HDpiano]

Hahah

[@purplelily6950]

That intro is too hard!

[@HDpiano]

It's a toughie! You can do it!!!

[@iZingSing]

You go too fast. Take your time to teach. don’t just assume people know what you are doing by watching you. You are a good teacher just slow down. Teach us the details not just the small chords used

Use the speed controls to go at your own pace! Re-watch as much as you need :)

[@gregoryambres1897]

Your teaching method is most tedious, young man. People Just want to learn to play a Song, and are not intereses in music theory. Nwvertheless, excelent video. This Song was a festure in the soundtrack of "Carlitos Way" with Al Pacino.

[@DawnMartinOfficial]

You are absolutely unequivocally 110% wrong and you should really be sued! Joe Cocker did not write this, you are so beautiful was written by a BLACK man named Billy Preston😡✊🏽✊🏽💯❗️

[@HDpiano]

Within the first 15 seconds we cite the songwriters: Preston and Fisher. All props to Billy Preston, certainly! (1:13) This tutorial is covering the Joe Cocker version, though.

[@PerryMillersMixes]

You talk too much dude
