Just here to say that I heard your piano cover when it first came out. Got engaged 3 years ago and knew I wanted this to be my “aisle”song. 2 postponed weddings and 2 years later everything became a reality. I walked down the aisle to this song on 5/21/22. Song makes me wanna cry when I hear it now lol thank you for blessing us with this gorgeous music. Literally a dream come true.

[@TheTheorist]

Hey Tiana, thanks for sharing this message with me and big congrats!! Glad I'm able to be apart of your wedding somehow.

I feel like Redbone really is that kind of song that you can play on any instrument and will always sound absolutely beautiful. I'm happy to grow up in times like these. Even though music changed drastically from it's origin and spread in multiple directions.. you still have many different artists who use their talent to make such amazing pieces. I'm glad I found this channel. You're an insanely good pianist and I hope to become as good as you one day. Thank you for the post. Have a great 2023 and stay safe.

Its actually similar to weeknd. I think you should keep an open mind about other artists, the album isnt like rap or even really hip hop, its like soul and pop very similar to Starboy.

[@aashisntreal]

this is honestly one of my favourite KZbin videos

[@mikej243]

Bino really came out with one of the most outstanding tracks of all time, not just for his version, but it seems like every cover that followed was just as unique as the last. It's almost he's challenging us to make it our own, and it makes me appreciate him as an artist so much more. STAY WOKE.

[@TheTheorist]

1. Thanks 2. Yes 3. I'll give it a listen

[@MommyShuffles]

I'm a tap dancer and found your cover on Spotify. Is it cool if I used the audio for a tap dance cover video on my KZbin channel, if I credit you?

[@e-minus3416]

The Theorist I second that, the piano intro alone for roses would be amazing! And I’d also like to use some of your covers on a podcast. Will credit as well
