Paranoid Android (Radiohead Piano Cover) - Thomas Yu

[@metalbeethoven]

The fact that he includes the metronome marking just like in the album in the beginning makes it even more special!

[@Mazzulatore]

But he doesn't even follow the initial timing, he start way more faster😅, awesome btw

[@dude443]

this is the best piano cover for this song out there, the amount of detail is crazy

[@thy306]

Swanson Wisconsin thanks, mate

[@akczenaiwok]

check christopher o'riley, his transcriptions are the most complex

[@jah9253]

Check out Josh Cohen's Radiohead covers.

[@byMikes]

@@jah9253 This cover is far, far superior and i'm a big fan of Josh Cohen.

[@jamiealvaro8669]

i guess it's kind of randomly asking but does anyone know a good website to watch newly released movies online?

[@elhonkster]

The rain down section is incredibly epic!

[@phunkybiotch]

Your 2016 Van Cliburn winner. I saw him there today and he made my jaw drop. Now I find out he plays Radiohead. Either my two worlds are colliding or maybe they just aren't that far apart.

[@thomasyu]

haha, this is a funny post, thanks for the kind words. hope you're enjoying the "real" cliburn 2017!

[@byMikes]

This is absolutely astonishingly good and I really, really hope you realise that.

[@byMikes]

I keep coming back to this. The attention to detail is so impressive. Would you ever think about offering a tutorial?

[@thy306]

ItsGonnaBe aGloriousDay thanks so much. I haven’t thought about it...but I have thought of transcribing the whole OK Computer some day ;)

[@byMikes]

It's a seriously impressive performance this man, probably the best cover of any song I've seen, especially given how challenging the song is. And that would be awesome, I would stick around for that!

[@lorenpal8978]

hands of god. damnit, why am i listening to this? i should be studying!

[@fernsmark18]

[@mrhphysics7848]

100% A+

[@chrisgavin]

insane... in a good way : )

[@chadzan123]

I think this is one of the best piano cover by far great job. I wish we could see all the keys tho so we could play this cover. Is there any way we can get the notes you are playing in the video?

[@thy306]

Thanks for the comment! That’s a good idea - I actually didn’t write the music down in great detail as it was mostly put together in my head. I am in the process of writing it down and even trying to get approval from the great band (or management at least). If and when that happens I’ll be sure to post again!

[@morganhelms80808]

​@Thomas Yu please post it to community when you do, I've been listening to this for years its absolutly one of my favorite compositions ever the detail and accuracy is really stunning

[@sonicmotor]

Ganz grosse Interpretation

[@daphnebrowdy4597]

Please transcribe this arrangement!!!

[@iracka]

Just the best piano cover. Have you transcripted it and is it possible to get it somewhere ? Best regards

[@thy306]

Thanks so much. I’m in the process of working on the entire album and writing it down. Just need clearance from their management which could take a while. But stay tuned! Thanks for listening

[@iracka]

I will, I've already subscribed. Tks for your reply :)

[@bmm12625]

More OK Computer songs please :)

[@thy306]

How about the whole album? I’m working on it but very slowly. You’ve given me some motivation thanks!

[@QueenJneeuQ]

This arrangement is amazing, any chance of sheet music?

[@thy306]

+Queen jneeuQ thanks so much. unfortunately it was not written down...just a crazy creation in my mind. thanks for listening!

[@ZammisHolc]

+Thomas Yu This is great! I would love a copy if you get a chance to write it down.

[@jackhensel2191]

Holy fuck

[@thy306]

Thank you! And Holy Fuck is the name of a great band so thanks for that too ha
