This guy is brilliant!!! What great talent!

[@rhondagodwin1265]

Wow! Best choices, fabulous delivery.

[@bobluhrs]

In person his playing is thrilling. Thanks for this video!

[@backauf]

He's incredible, I feel very privileged to hear him play from time to time here in Victoria BC. He and Nick La Riviere together are terrific talent.

[@brdeschamps]

so creative by being part of his piano with ingenuity and freshness...great player. thank you very much

[@BogdanSaiu]

Michael just sang with passion, pouring a piece of him into his music and people are complaining because they wanted 13 minutes of generic, monotonous music, just like all other videos. It is a great shame that there are so many talented people that they can put their mark on their music, right?

[@rhondagodwin1265]

When was Sweet Georgia Brown EVER not Boogie Woogie?

@@rhondagodwin1265 That's the first tune I learned on piano. Mom did classical but I wanted to boogie & rock so we started with SGB left hand...I still remember it. But...this is not real boogie woogie. This is: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iWOyn62cmM54qpo

So this is basically Tom Lehrer on speed, if y'all know who Lehrer is. I should ALSO tweet this at my favourite artist, one Mr. Jeremy Dutcher, and be like, "Hey, you're God, but pick up the pace!"

[@gregwalker4236]

i love it, except for the constant commercials--sad.....

[@swillswill]

Are you serious!!!! Planting ads in the middle of the performance. Despicable!!! Thumbs down, not for the performance but for the editing.

[@bonanzajoe]

Sorry swillswill, somebody has to pay for the Utube so we can download good music. I understand, which is why I gave you the thumbs up.

Poor Baby! Maybe next time better.

[@TheTurulhawk]

Have you never been to a live performance? The artists typically do talk to their audience, not just stand up there like zombies, not acknowledging them. It shows rapport with the audience.

[@davidpoor8638]

Can't say as I'm impressed. Play the piano! Don't gab!

[@trevorhinks3530]

Would have enjoyed it a lot more if he kept his greasy hands off of those strings... If I owned that beautiful $150,000 Yamaha I'd have lost it!

[@TheTurulhawk]

It's a stringed instrument. When have you ever seen anyone put on a pair of gloves to play a guitar, a violin, a cello, a viola, etc. to avoid getting their "greasy hands" on the strings? In fact, you'll find some experimental artists who play the piano by plucking the strings: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZofUhaqkdtp7rdU
