I'm away in the military and listen to this song when I start to miss my family. It makes me realize even though the story is fiction, that it could be much worse like Cooper missing out on decades within just a few days and giving up his family for the better. Makes a few months away from home seem a lot easier.

This is truly magnificent. It amazes how the piece can be played so uniquely by different musicians with so many different emotions. Personally, I find Katherine Cordova's rendition the most powerful... It brings tears to my eyes every time I listen to it.

3:52 This is where Kyle's real skills start to set in. He's not even looking at the sheets anymore and is ready to just go all out on improvising. Then he just explodes at 5:59 and creates this wow moment as you watch in awe. This is what sets him apart from other pianists. His improvising and arranging skills are second to none and you feed off of his emotional playing. Thanks for the inspiration Kyle.

[@Ghaffar_KH]

Can't agree with you even more, what a pianist Kyle is. World class without a fucking doubt!

[@AndreasKitzingSponsoo]

Wow, amazing. Whereas other covers just try to replicate the notes as exact as possible, your interpretation really gets to the essence of the original score. The original score was always made for the organ, so you can't just repeat the notes on another instrument. With your interpretation, you really managed to translate the organ piece into a piano piece. Well done!

I am now practicing piano again for about 1,5 years averaging about 1-2 hours practice daily. I have made large steps in progress and have good intonation I have been told. Now 1,5 years later I am getting close to the point were I feel confident to start learning this piece. Thank you for inspiring me Kyle : )

I'd been wanting to at piano my entire life secretly as I grew up around a group of boys in our neighborhood & it wasn't cool. My wife finally bought me a keyboard at 47 years old as she knew my truth. 2 years later & I have memorized 2 songs I can play (by sight not reading - no formal training) & I have been working on this one & can play up to 58 seconds where I get I to the deep water & can't swim. I've watched this video no less than 500 times & I still am awed by it's beauty. Is there a tutorial on this song or how would someone persistent in learning this song learn how to at it? Gets complicated but I'm willing to put in the effort to learn this song. Thank you Kyle for sharing the fruits of your considerable talents & efforts!

[@KristofferEngstrom]

Hey Kyle. 2 times in my life, I have for real wondered if it would be possible to hire a musician to play on my wedding party. 1st were a gentleman in Key West who played on a bar for an audience of 10, but what a performance and what musical genius he was. And the 2.nd one is you. How I would have loved to be able to pay your ticket to Sweden to play on my own wedding party to come sometime in the future after the pandemic is gone. Its seldom to hear such perfection.

Hanool Lim I was looking through the comments knowing what you said made the first time watching this infinitely more special thank you

[@nicwood352]

You make it look so easy, im struggling with the first 20 seconds

Danny Schoosch i meant i want to come back to this section so i can go to tje website later xD

[@coolcattheunicorn]

it's extremely easy once you get it down, but the hard thing is the fast part because your muscles get tired quickly if you don't spend a LOT of time playing the piano

[@FreakFilmsMC]

XxTYL3RxX yeah

[@ThEDyLnCaLi]

I listened to this while tripping and now I cry Everytime I hear it. Idk what it is but it activates something in me. Calling this song beautiful doesn't even begin to do it justice

[@craigjackson4146]

Have been here since the Kyle556 days. I'll always come back because your music makes my heart sing and an hour of your playing cleanses my spirit. Thank you mate for all your hard work and grinding. You leave us with endless choices to listen too whenever we feel the need.

[@bunekolover]

this piece makes me feel so lonely, like there is only me standing on the earth under the night sky full of stars

[@Vadoshulk]

It's awesome. Respect from Russia 🇷🇺

[@LeeRoy.Jenkinz]

what an insane performance, i cant image all the work to be able to play like that, its unreal

[@trendyfunandgames4759]

He made about 3 keying errors but who's complaining not me

[@nachan4475]

So talented because your music really touched my heart. The climax parts makes me feel like l was running up stairs to heaven. Also feel free and soul-shivering‥ Music doesn’t need any border, any language 👏 Thank you

[@tristantiideberg6937]

I'm tryna learn to play this song and the hardest thing for me at the moment is the amount of pressure to put on the keys. At some moments of the song Kyle slams the living shit out of the keys and other moments he gently presses the keys treating it like the most fragile thing in the world. I am currently at 1:18 and need to practice controlling my strength. wish me luck!

[@michaq11]

@Tristan Tiideberg How it's going? :)

[@extrememiami]

Hans zimmer is NOT a place to start lol. It’s prob a 5th year song. Nuvole Blanche is the best 1st year song to learn. Give that piece a go.

[@DookieFreshh]

Hows it coming?

[@asiya3757]

Any updates?

[@KIMOSALAH]

@@asiya3757 How is it going?

[@Fjerid]

After years I am still amazed at this piece of art. 7:23 How does he manage to make it sound so smooth, so awesome.

[@SoccerGermany1]

this is the best cover all over youtube

[@ARCASIAUK]

This is the best pianist on KZbin hands down. Incredible talent and such an amazing tune.

[@poisson5846]

Patrick Pierchman and Animenz: *allow me to introduce ourselves*

[@alexaben6299]

Ya realize there is literally Valentina Lisita who is a professional classical pianist

[@Worker100]

@@poisson5846 nah they are nowhere near his level of comprehension and grace....

[@MrJdsenior]

@@Worker100 Try Jerrod Radnich (Pirates Forever), and make sure it is his performance, LOTS of people cover it. You will love the last 'chord', I'm sure he rehearsed that for hours, it's pretty funny. You will see ALL KINDS of comprehension and grace...and power, and subtlety, and ... :-) Or Cateen (Hyato Sumino), his original Piano Sonata 0 is quite good, and his improvisational skills are absurd, he does movies, games, world classical tours, jazz, even some top tier competitions, for fun. As a technician he is almost unmatched. There are several others, but yeah, Kyle is DEFINITELY a favorite of mine. He really does sound like he works out every note to perfection. Frank Tedesco does some very cool stuff, made up real time, and very complex arrangements, ten loop levels deep, some of them, others just straight piano. I think his Etude called Waves is a lot of fun, an original. Hope you enjoy. If you want more, just ask. I spend way too much time on YT. And it's not a competition, really, unless it is. I don't know how you pick out one person and assign the level 'best'. That doesn't really even mean anything, when you get to top tier performers. More personal taste than anything, at that point, IMHO. I have quite a few keyboardists on my playlist, and Kyle has a few pieces there. This is one of them, IIRC. Oh, look up Jacob Collier's 'Don't Stop'. Totally different, but totally great, if a bit silly. He likes to have fun. You might enjoy Sestak's "House of the Rising Sun", too. My favorite cover of that piece. That guy knows the value of silence in a piece, as well. Fun to watch.

[@MrJdsenior]

@@poisson5846 Looked up Animenz. Thanks, fun stuff. 'Kick back - Chainsaw Man' is a blast. Look at the comment I just posted in this same thread for some return recommendations. :-)

[@hyspecs7906]

Piano is the most beautiful instrument ever. After all those year playing piano, it still shievers my spine to play the music I love.

[@styleguitar95]

how is this even possible? my right hand would have fallen into pieces.. twice.. your playing is admirable!

[@kylelandry]

Hahaha, you must not have heard/watched professionals play Chopin or Liszt etudes have you?!

[@shadowcast24]

I've been watching you play a lot of pieces for years now... But this is the first time I'm just hearing this made me cry and I don't know why... You are probably one of the most gifted and talented piano players I've ever listened to in my entire life... Please continue to do this because you inspire people and you definitely give people emotions with your arrangements... This is one of the first few movies where I was in love with the soundtrack from front to back.. so hearing this was just phenomenal

[@bernardlz]

2 years later i still listen to the piece every time i want to feel music

[@njri3369]

2 and 6 months later .... still doing the same thing 😂😂

[@shlimeboyy8121]

Kyle Landry you are my role model! You inspire me to do great things. I am a young pianist and piano is my passion I wish to be like you. I have not taken any piano lessons and I have no clue how to read sheet music but I still manage to play moonlight sonata, fur Elise, time -inception, etc... including this very own composition. You inspire me to change the world and create music for everyone to hear and enjoy. It would mean the world to me if you would just reply to this with a simple hi. Kyle Landry you're the best and keep doing what you do because you make a difference to not just me but everyone that may witness you🙂

[@EMAYisMCA]

To this day, this is still the most beautiful thing my ears have had the privilege of hearing.

[@amihigh9654]

When the notes hit from really soft to hard: i felt that

[@zapidante]

1:43 At first, I was afraid, I was petrified. Kept thinkin' I could never live Without you by my side, But then I spent so many nights Thinkin' how you did me wrong. And I grew strong And I learned how to get along. And so you're back from outer space. I just walked in to find you here With that sad look upon your face. I should've changed that stupid lock, I should've made you leave your key, If I had known, for just one second, You'd be back to bother me. Well, now go! Walk out the door! Just turn around now, 'Cause you're not welcome anymore! Weren't you the one Who tried to hurt me with goodbye? Did you think I'd crumble? Did you think I'd lay down and die? Oh no, not I! I will survive! Oh, as long as I know how to love, I know I'll stay alive! I've got all my life to live. I've got all my love to give. And I'll survive! I will survive! Hey, Hey! It took all the strength I had Not to fall apart And trying hard to mend the pieces Of my broken heart. And I spent, oh, so many nights Just feeling sorry for myself. I used to cry, But now I hold my head up high! And you'll see me, somebody new, I'm not that chained up little person Still in love with you. And so you felt like droppin' in And just expect me to be free, But now I'm savin' all my lovin' For someone who's lovin' me! Go now! Go! Walk out the door! Just turn around now! 'Cause you're not welcome anymore! Weren't you the one Who tried to break me with goodbye? Did you think I'd crumble? Did you think I'd lay down and die? Oh no, not I! I will survive! Oh, as long as I know how to love I know I'll stay alive! I've got all my life to live. I've got all my love to give. And I'll survive. I will survive! Oohh.. Go now! Go! Walk out the door! Just turn around now! 'Cause you're not welcome anymore! Weren't you the one Who tried to break me with goodbye? Did you think I'd crumble? Did you think I'd lay down and die? Oh no, not I! I will survive! Oh, as long as I know how to love I know I'll stay alive! And I've got all my life to live. And I've got all my love to give. And I'll survive. I will survive! I will survive!

[@momentsoftriumph5972]

Quarantine music. I visit this video multiple times every year for the last 5 years and it still induces goosebumps. Elite talent.

[@ahmetksasmaz]

I had watched many pianists that plays this song. But I have never ever seen that not just playing but also living the song in the heart and soul as you. If I were a man lives in 60s and you were the pianist in the bar, I would definitely unhat and present my memento watch for you.

[@Nvh99999]

I’ve been working on this piece for about 5 months now. Only a little more than half way through. This video gives me motivation every time I watch it.

[@Hambxne]

I'm with you brother, keep pushing!

[@justintime2026]

How's it progressing? Update when you've finished it bro :)

[@ace3998]

What an absolute masterpiece. Many years many times have I listened to this and applied to my life. Watching it this time really brought perspective the love and passion and time this took. It was the reason I bought myself a piano to one day be able to play this but alas life takes hold and doesn't let go and I don't think I will ever be able to. Kyle Landry, Master Pianist, nothing less is deserved.

[@frankiefelinesalwayswelcom5825]

Your playing blows me away every time. Never get tired of hearing this. It brings me to tears. It is now permanent music on my IPad. Kyle you are simply amazing. So glad I discovered you. You are my FAVOURITE piano player on YT.

[@mr.sardine]

It is so beautifully played, it breaks my heart every time I listen to it ❤

[@clash_120]

By far it’s the best piano cover of this song on youtube!

[@TheHumanSpirit]

I have returned to this piece repeatedly over time, far more than any other from anyone online ...without comparison. Please never remove.

[@orbensana]

Same here. This very evening, in fact.

[@demonthinggoaway4298]

I’ve been counting. 152 or 153 times.

[@PianoMastR64]

I love how the silence at the end is still part of the song.

[@jpmnr1868]

I played piano from 2nd-8th grade. My grandmother is the best piano player I’ve ever gotten to witness that has passion for it. I’m 21 years old now working construction and it’s been a while since I’ve been disciplined about practicing piano. Every time I hear her play or someone playing the piano who plays their soul into it I feel myself being dragged into it. I love it and it’s one of the few things that truly makes me emotional. I’m going to master this piece.
