The Stone Roses - Spike Island - Made of Stone (Piano Version)

Memories of an amazing day....

[@Shaunography]

30 years today. Long live the Roses.

[@neilwilliams1975]

This has just blown me away, very moving.

[@mancmaloney8796]

wow...have gone all cold......I am 48 and still the Roses affect me...I flew from Perth Australia for the first gig at Heaton Park last June and a day and night I will take to the grave

[@BurtonRdForever]

Mad what music does. I travelled to the same gig on a tram that took 30mins!! We both went for the love of the music.

[@temjin44]

Can remember the first time I heard Made of Stone. It almost felt like yesterday. When the chorus kicked in, I think it was probably one of the most beautiful and emotional life events I had even up to this day. Thanks for playing and putting your heart into it. Listening to this reminded me of that day.

[@FrowningIke]

I was 17 at this gig and lived in Penketh, just down the road. This will always be one of the best days of my life!

[@ManchesterPiano]

Thanks for comments! Memories of ...dodgy planks across the canal, beautiful hot day, Reni hats everywhere, everyone smoking and chilling in groups, anticipation, and a phenemonal band we will all never forget.

[@MrPge1970]

As a man approacing 40 years of age and a Roses fan of over 20 years, this brought me to tears. A very emotive performance and video. A superb interpretation of a beautiful song. If I may be so bold, any chance of your version of "There is a light that never goes out"? Well done, superb stuff.

[@renzoc]

Seriously, this is what KZbin was made for!!!! For brilliant sh*t like this! Thanks man this is awesome.

[@PACEUK22]

Well said

[@C5LUP]

I've never left a comment before but when you come across the best video on KZbin then I guess it would be rude not to! This is just sheer class in every department. Haunting, eerie, poignant, nostalgic, magical, moving etc..... I've watched this over & over and it grabs my attention just as much now as it did the first time I saw it. If Brown,Mani,Squire&Reni saw this they would be the first to shake your hand. Don't wanna sound like Andy Gray but....."Take a bow, son !!!!!!"

[@Darrell9029]

Sunset Sunday May 1990 - I was there Brilliant tune and video!!

[@SuperMrkaboom]

i now live in Widnes and was there on that day in May. Ive been down there for the first time in 21 year with my 1 year old son. God, what id give to be 18 again and there dancing to the roses! Go my HP ticket for Friday. BRING IT ON!!!!!!!!

[@russellben1234]

I wasn’t at Spike Island but attended Glasgow Green , and yes I look back at all you beautiful people with flares and mop top hair and sun hats and Remember we were part of something real. This piece makes me cry at how good it was as now the music scene in Britain is on its arse

[@gavkirk]

Spike Island was the greatest thing I'll ever remember. If I can, red hot, bongo drummers, huge joints and fireworks but brilliant atmosphere. Made Of Stone, Beautiful, video upset me. Thank you. With respect.

[@angelocean5556]

+gavan hobkirk its beautiful isnt it. Very emotional

[@sxr_WhiteRose]

Definitely pal. The Stone Roses were the greatest band Ive ever seen and the only one I ever connected with. They are forever in my heart

[@BurtonRdForever]

Everyone I know who went said it was crap. The wind took the sound onto the Mersey, sounded awful, but the music was secondary it was a time and place. Your lucky mate. I'm 5 years too young..

[@jonjo220]

Made of Stone on the piano! Beautiful Puts a whole new slant on the tune for me

[@dwad112]

Simply breathtaking. A piece of me will always be there. The 20th aniversary is coming up. Lets all buy this and get it to number one. Sunset Sunday forever. Peace & love, E's & whizz.........

[@skyenicolas7012]

Stunning. The shot at the end... just beautiful. . . . . . I can hear this being played at my funeral.

[@eivaar]

Brilliant, absolute class. When the t-shirt arrived at the end I was almost in tears. Thank you!

[@occasionalvillain7676]

I’m going to email this to myself so i can listen to it tomorrow morning watching the swift’s , thank you 🙏🏻

[@STOKEOZ1967]

i wish the roses would have done a 20 th anniversary show, as i was gutted not to be at spike island, what a year that was, with madchester, baggy jeans, italia '90, top tunes, rave on!

[@pgl0897]

This video has just done something to me.

[@jaspurr77]

Awakened your soul

[@russellben1234]

The only cover to do the song and the Roses justice

[@coventry35]

I walked over the big bridge on that day on the way to the gig, so the memories flooded back right at the beginning & I wore the same shirt you have at the end. To cap it off the music is an amazing achievement! Thankyou

[@ramma77]

.... this is absolutely amazing. I have goosebumps listening to this.

[@sleeplessinstockwell]

....... haunting .......beautiful

[@angelocean5556]

Stunning!!!!

[@anirvandeva]

This version is awesome, fanx! I just saw TSR live in Auckland last week and they were amazing, awesome psychedelic and rocking concert. The crowd were dancing and singing every song, but the biggest and loudest sing-alongs were saved fot this one. At the end of the concert Mani said "Good one Auckland, sorry if we took 20 bloody years to get here" (^__^)

[@VCK9009]

Absolutely stunning. Gives a sense of poignancy when interspersed with the images of where one of the greatest bands to emerge from the UK reached the top of their game...only for it to end in disaster six years later at Reading.

[@jaybro85]

Absolutely brilliant. Went heaton and finsbury park yesterday. Words cannot explain what this band means to me. Thanks for the upload

[@thisisatrueeestory]

this is amazing. what a great tribute to a fantastic band.

[@rosemonkey]

That's superb. Almost brings a grown man to tears

[@mrmojorisin1275]

thank you thank you thank you. it made me cry with gratitude. im so glad i was 15 in 1990. the roses are part of my make up.you dont know how much this has touched me. it made my day.

[@TCOSDMMMT]

this is absolutely brilliant, great job. really, very well done.

[@chrisspencer6]

This is just simply stunning. Hard to hold back the tears, my great friens Martin would love this.....

[@PhuriousStyles]

this is an awesome emotional rendition of a classic! well done!

[@foxedoff]

awesome piece of music, happy memories of a very hot sunday, a town drank out of beer and one of the best days of my life. Great video, thank you for reminding me of sunset sunday. one love.

[@terryturbo5844]

I was Conceived here 1990. Was at Finsbury Brilliant

[@jhwalsh93]

This is an incredibly moving peace of music, I'd honestly want it played at my funeral.

[@Borthbury]

Lovely video, and great piano work. Really evocative for me. I have returned many times since the Roses gig on 27 May 1990, and this video captures the bleak beauty of the place. Thinking of Seán Murray RIP, who I went to see the Roses with.

[@no5king789]

beautifull.....could listen all day THANKS FOR SHARING ADZ

[@CarlEvz13]

Beautiful cover

[@nickmatravers9545]

If you find everything in ,above and around you is a hurricane of chaos; sit ,close your eyes ,listen with your heart and be still x

[@spencermax]

such a perfect day...great film that. Thank you

[@freddiegibbs101]

Jesus christ ..... where has this been all my life? Amazing amazing work.

[@StanleyDonwood]

I am actually crying

[@Pcr06]

This is too beautiful... very emotional.

[@chrismatthews4365]

Fucking amazing, absolutely love this, sends shivers down you listening to this. Would be perfect for a Shane Meadows movie this, would have fitted perfect in Dead mans shoes

[@Pedgerow]

As I started listening to this, I thought, "How will he be able to capture the euphoric lifting chorus with just a piano?". It turns out you didn't need to; your interpretation of the chorus was brilliant and innovative. You just gave me what I didn't know I wanted, and that's my definition of art. I even watched the video to the end before writing this comment, because even the images were well done.

[@vaagstun]

brilliant, really shows what a solid tune this is.

[@mrsiftercovers5097]

I have to go and pay my respects ✌🏻

[@stickypool]

@themusicbod You have an amazing talent my friend. Thank you for sharing it with us.

[@bondosan]

Incredible

[@trexty2]

That's just gorgeous. Well done.

[@madeOfStone319]

get this fucker on spotify, amazing.

[@CCPbass]

Great work Richard! I taught myself bass initially by learning the whole of 'The Stone Roses'. I was at Spike Island with my sister and some mates. We were at the front and nearly died twice from a)J.Wobbles lung dislodging basslines and b)from being trampled during the first 4 Roses numbers! Hot day, heated atmosphere, completely disorganised, crap beer tent, Roses came on after a REALLY long break, totally brilliant! Spike Island, horrific, perfect.

[@Hindlooltigersrlfc]

Absolutely love this

[@RivingtonAve]

Beautiful 🍋

[@ManchesterPiano]

Stone Roses for Piano album is available now on itunes for £5

[@jasoncsh35]

Superb stuff...great tune!

[@wongowonga]

[@AndyMossMetta]

Wow! I am pleasantly surprised by this interpretation of one of my favourite Stone Roses songs. Well done indeed. This is great. (fun to play on guitar as well as the chords are simple enough)

[@edmundblackaddercoc8522]

this needs morphing into any existing footage of that day...effing brilliant..

[@rix29]

what a great cover...very haunting,yet beautiful....instantly thought of a shane meadows film,and oddly enough,i heard he had been filming the roses at heaton park.

[@snowlikunliang2379]

哇塞！虽然我现在才发现这首歌，但是不妨碍我喜欢Matt Corby和这个版本的钢琴伴奏！谢谢您！

[@davew5433]

I was here and never thought it was a BIG thing But wow it was so Brilliant

[@sugarraygras]

As you already know this is great. Get an album together and I will buy it. The strong melodies of the Roses lends itself well to your chosen instrument. .......Dont stop!

[@kawasaki5187]

Brilliant, thanks

[@Parky7567]

Thought the original was amazing but this is out of my world

[@a1974h]

best roses cover version i have heard

[@wongowonga]

excellent arrangement dude.. love it!!

[@maxxxaids]

beautiful

[@chrisgilroy19]

wow that was a class version really liked it, great sound on the piano,

[@juck]

This is wonderful.I always thought it would be a great idea to break great songs down like this.Proper tunes.Excellent job,you should make a cd I would purchase definitely man.

[@zoecita77]

Speechless.

[@JoseWhon]

this is amazing..arrangement and video....so sad and nostalgic :-(

[@donning]

Actually now that I think, I never went to Spike Island at all. I was thinking of Showaddywaddy live at Crewe Lyceum Theatre.

[@russellben1234]

Saw them 2 weeks later at the best they ever played on Glasgow green . But this makes me cry as I want to get back there. One love

[@JEM4JS]

best song ever

[@jasonmutch4202]

so good love it nothng compares to ths when your feeling blue x

[@nanaroyale]

beautiful!

[@youu1869]

brilliant

[@StanleyDonwood]

That version was a lot more poignant than the original, 5 stars, utterly brilliant mate

[@parkovanbasten]

wow amazing!

[@MartinThomasHovist]

Fantastic - good effort!

[@observerstation]

Watching this makes you realise what an absurd place to put a large scale concert on! Madness! Gareth Evans suggestion I believe

[@trexty2]

I feel terrible now. I'll try to stay away. There's always one to spoil it for everybody else isn't there? And it's always me..

[@russellben1234]

Brilliant but even better if you lived the dream and were that baggy person who looked fucking beautiful in your flares and sun hat god bless all who got appreciate the movement cos now all we have are memories as the music scene is dead

[@sxr_WhiteRose]

Definitely my friend. I was at Spike Island. Wouldn't have missed the greatest band ever for anything.

[@MrCrispian]

Spike Island is an island off the coast of Cork in Ireland....it was a borstal in the 1970's

[@STEVEFINNERTY]

nice !,,

[@yachtman62]

That was amazing I could listen to a whole album of similar stuff, (Ker-ching)

[@bigmarky]

I adore thise i really do but it always made me kinda sad at the end. not the case now after recent events :) Hope you got tickets Richard

[@jhwalsh93]

heaton park will be the new spike island.

[@cutloosebruce]

mega !!

[@ManchesterPiano]

hi thanks for the message

[@douglas_small]

This is great. You don't by any chance have a sheet music transcription for this arrangement do you? My 14 year old son would love to learn to play it!

[@hubzy123]

gotta give it ya mate its ace
