I'm Still Standing Elton John PIANO COVER

[@mikestewart9215]

Fantastic Arrangement!....I'm Impressed.

[@chrisbarkerpiano]

Hey Mike, thanks so much. It is definitely a fun song to play. Thanks for watching!

[@kiriltemelkov5591]

DAT INTRO !!! Awesome work with the achords :D

[@richy21224]

YES YES YES!!!!!!!!!!!! Someone who does it in the right key XD I just want to let you know when I learn this song, I'm giving you credit XD

[@colbybelk]

The book I bought had it in Am so I feel like I missed out. But who wants to play in Bbm?

[@reubenc2005]

Dude pls turn the intro part into a tutorial. This sounds amazing

[@Gamemaster365-6]

RIGHT

[@corneliuskruger8238]

agreed

[@Little77Pete]

It sounds amazing

[@deBrilly]

Yeah, great!!! I thinks it's the most similar to what Elton plays live.

[@ascenciolopezbarucharturo8311]

You could never know what it's like Your blood like winter freezes just like ice And there's a cold lonely light that shines from you You'll wind up like the wreck you hide behind that mask you use And did you think this fool could never win? Well look at me, I'm coming back again I got a taste of love in a simple way And if you need to know while I'm still standing, you just fade away Don't you know I'm still standing better than I ever did Looking like a true survivor, feeling like a little kid I'm still standing after all this time Picking up the pieces of my life without you on my mind I'm still standing (Yeah, yeah, yeah) I'm still standing (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

[@philldwyer5221]

Wow! Best cover by far. Brilliant 👍🎹🎹

[@chrisbarkerpiano]

Thanks so much! It is a fun song to play for sure.

[@secretguy9764]

Best Version ever

[@chrisbarkerpiano]

You are too kind!

[@dzinks92]

Masterpiece!

[@chrisbarkerpiano]

Too kind!

[@pat1clare]

This has to be the best on here 🙏🏻🙌🏻

[@chrisbarkerpiano]

That is too kind, I am definitely glad you enjoy it.

[@carlosemannuel2326]

O melhor no piano que eu ja vi da musica aqui no KZbin... The best!!!!

[@hedge6506]

Amazing bro love it👏😍

[@chrisbarkerpiano]

Thanks so much!

[@procta2343]

rolands have such great sounds!

[@chrisbarkerpiano]

I totally agree, my first keyboard was a Roland and I haven't seen anything else that I prefer yet.

[@procta2343]

@@chrisbarkerpiano I just kicked off playing again, ( well started learning again) and i bought Kuzweil K2600s to replace a Alesis Qs 8.1. Anyway i was fiddling through some of the sounds on the K2600 and i found a piano sound that was very close to your piano patch, Which made me think of this video. So if you do every want to upgrade, Check out the Kurzweil range, I think they are very close to Roland sound wise mind!

[@chrisbarkerpiano]

@@procta2343 Thanks for the recommendation, I have not been keyboard shopping in a long time now so I am pretty much out of the loop. I will keep this in mind for the future though. Thanks!

[@procta2343]

@@chrisbarkerpiano I decided on the off chance to have a look what was out. There was a few K 2600s on sale and researched it. Later i found out that the Beegees used the K2500!

[@EJBENNIE]

Excellent

[@chrisbarkerpiano]

Thank you

[@pat1clare]

I’m still waiting for the full tutorial - amazing 🙌🏻

[@BradRadmusic]

very nice indeed.

[@chrisbarkerpiano]

Thanks Bradley!

[@hbejinha]

a proof you dont need big hands to play piano, well played!!!

[@chrisbarkerpiano]

Thanks so much! I love how Elton always comes up with ways to play songs that you would never imagine could work with just piano.

[@fridouille9189]

one of the best piano cover on youtube, because you have a very precise play (no bad notes i mean) gret to ear

[@chrisbarkerpiano]

Fridouille 91 thank you for the kind words...I appreciate that!

[@sofiab544]

Love it ❤

[@painauchocolat6786]

Thanks you, i was searching like since 1h for the 3rd chords of the intro

[@colbybelk]

This is so good. Wish you would mention the exact live performances you’re covering. Btw, your left hand is just as mesmerizing as his.

[@chrisbarkerpiano]

Thank you for your kind words. I don't think I had a particular performance in mind for this, when I recorded most of my covers years ago I usually just pieced together things I liked. Thanks for watching!

[@zhoelbejtaj7566]

By hearing it here arranged in piano version , i note that the rhythm and musical line it's quite similar as Spandau Ballet's "Gold".

[@chrisbarkerpiano]

Wow, never heard of them but I see where you can hear a similarity through.

[@driversteve9345]

Wow that's a big intro! I was waiting for you to sing! LMFAO!!

[@chrisbarkerpiano]

I do sing but I am not nearly as good at playing and sining as Elton is. I think I'll stick to just playing for now :-)

[@mimoochodom2684]

Fantastic. Can you do a tutorial? And one for Blue Eyes?

[@TheDillon8825]

Very nice.

[@majikmoments9933]

Very good. Not a lot of wasted talking

[@TheLelet]

I love it .❤️

[@eliasmaldonado8395]

BUENÍSIMO

[@chrisbarkerpiano]

Thank you

[@philippe775]

I love so much. !!! Thanks a lot 🙏🙏🙏

[@toothless66]

Love the videos! Could you do crocodile rock please?

[@chrisbarkerpiano]

I haven't done that one at all, good choice. I'll try to find a good one. Thanks for the suggestion!

[@TheUKNutter]

How did you make that sound? Amazing. I record and it records background noise.

[@chrisbarkerpiano]

TheUKNutter I don't use the video recorder's audio I record the audio directly while playing and sync it with the video afterwards. Thanks for the comment.

[@TheUKNutter]

How do you record the audio directly?

[@KaHiReborn]

There are different ways to do that. You can record it on the keyboard and transfer it to the PC afterwards or you connect the keyboard with your PC and record it in an audio-programm on your PC.

[@TheUKNutter]

Geez that looks hard, I'm contemplating how I can put my recorded songs to the pc lol

[@mr.burroway4364]

TUTORIAL! PLEASE!

[@Jymck]

Amazing cover !! Congrats !! Any midi file ? Thank you

[@chrisbarkerpiano]

Unfortunately I do not have a midi for my live playing. I appreciate your encouragement!

[@wikess8519]

SUPER !!!

[@chrisbarkerpiano]

Thanks so much!

[@LukaBrooksVlogs]

Not sure if you take requests but this is spot on to Elton's style and I'd love to see how you interpret his current playing style of Saturday Night's Alright for Fighting!

[@chrisbarkerpiano]

Thanks so much Luka, I haven't done a rendition of that yet and have been thinking about it lately. If you have a specific video in mind shoot it to me and I will check it out. Thanks for watching!

[@LukaBrooksVlogs]

Chris Barker Piano thanks for the reply! Honestly a lot of the ways he plays the main verse/chorus has been the same over the years but I just know when I saw him live earlier this year the solo licks were a little different, I don’t have a particular video in mind but if you want one try searching any of his 2019/2020 videos, otherwise a great rendition of his 1979 Moscow live with ray cooper would always be exciting to watch!

[@toucap]

Amazing :D

[@arthurlanglais3182]

Awesome

[@chrisbarkerpiano]

Langlais Arthur thanks so much.

[@driversteve9345]

I think you should give lessons to some of these Pro Elton wannabes on KZbin! I won't mention any names but they do Elton John gigs at parties and auditoriums. I think you kinda know those I'm referring to.

[@filyppek]

Hi. very nice performance!!!could you give me the first 7 chords you play? I would be grateful :)

[@maoroderoubaix1505]

Hello I really like your intro. If you a sheet music, can I have it please? That’s for my personnal use. But good video

[@chrisbarkerpiano]

Unfortunately I do not have sheet music at this time. I hopefully can offer that in the future. Thanks for watching!

[@juanptorres594]

Do a tuturiol break it up into 4 parts

[@panin211]

I need notes of this masterpiece

[@arachnidantics2370]

Sheet music?

[@juanptorres594]

Come on dude please TUTORIAL

[@chrisbarkerpiano]

I am working on doing some tutorials coming up, I don't have a great setup to do them but I'm just going to have to work through that :-)
