This is so beautiful! My husband always played this for our grandchildren. We are playing it at my daughters wedding for one of our granddaughters to walk down the aisle as the flower girl. Paying tribute to Papa! She will be carrying a wand covered with fairy lights for the fire flies Love this arrangement! Thank you

[@JohnRodDondoyano]

When words becomes sounds it sounds perfect

[@AprilPearlFedalgo]

It sounds so good in Orchestral!😭Such a powerful and epic rendition. It's even better listening with earbuds, you experience the fullness of the music💖

[@JohnRodDondoyano]

Thank you! 😘

[@dxlz9077]

This is just insane. The song itself is one of the best songs ever released, and you played it amazing. Listening to this, all my childhood passed by my eyes. I loved this song so much when my life was easier. This is insane. Amazing job dude!

[@JohnRodDondoyano]

Thank you! 🥰🥰🥰

[@jaxadventuretime]

After two months of watching this video in slow-mo, I can finally play it. Thank you so much for this arrangement 🎹

[@JohnRodDondoyano]

Glad I could help! 😁

[@cherylpaganelli3350]

Just checking back in! This was a big favorite at my daughters wedding. My children all got teary eyed! My granddaughter (the cutest flower girl ever) skipped down the aisle with her wand full of fireflies. She was so excited to be “dancing” to Papa’s Song. It was played again at the reception with cold spark fountains going off behind dance floor. Thanks so very much, your cover was so beautifully done!

[@JohnRodDondoyano]

Wow! Thank you! ❤️

[@theantidote9263]

till now this song give's a misty in my eyes dont know why the world is busrting to speed up from years to years and all the memories that where fasting out is became a dreams that we remember wherever it hits to our mind , the nights and days that gives happyness to us in the fast years is like nostalgic into our memory jar 🙁

[@panggangtesalonika8862]

You would not believe your eyes If ten million fireflies Lit up the world as I fell asleep 'Cause they fill the open air And leave teardrops everywhere You'd think me rude but I would just stand and stare I'd like to make myself believe that planet earth turns slowly It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep 'Cause everything is never as it seems 'Cause I'd get a thousand hugs From ten thousand lightning bugs As they tried to teach me how to dance A foxtrot above my head A sock hop beneath my bed A disco ball is just hanging by a thread (thread, thread) I'd like to make myself believe that planet earth turns slowly It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep 'Cause everything is never as it seems (when I fall asleep) Leave my door open just a crack Please take me away from here 'Cause I feel like such an insomniac Please take me away from here Why do I tire of counting sheep? Please take me away from here When I'm far too tired to fall asleep To ten million fireflies I'm weird 'cause I hate goodbyes I got misty eyes as they said farewell (they said farewell) But I'll know where several are If my dreams get real bizarre 'Cause I saved a few and I keep them in a jar (jar, jar, jar) I'd like to make myself believe that planet earth turns slowly It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep 'Cause everything is never as it seems (when I fall asleep) I'd like to make myself believe that planet earth turns slowly It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep 'Cause everything is never as it seems (when I fall asleep) Source: LyricFind Songwriters: Adam R.

This is my best friend's favorite song, so I am going to learn it on the piano for him. Thank you for this arrangement. He is going to love it!

[@BigodeSimulator]

Yeah, that was really good. It's always good to hear a real musician. You knew perfectly how to put the other sounds of the song in tune with your piano, and even I, who have absolutely no technical knowledge of music, know that this was really well done

[@JohnRodDondoyano]

Thank you so much! 💓

[@boazlickliter6629]

This video is grossly underrated. The piano is absolutely beautiful! 👏
