Learn how to play Dancing in the Moonlight by Toploader on piano with this Synthesia piano tutorial! Please enjoy!
Originally written by King Harvest and recorded by Boffalongo in 1970, #DancingInTheMoonlight went on to be a modest hit by #Toploader, who recorded it in 1999, releasing the track in 2000. The catchy opening riff to Dancing in the Moonlight has been a classic since the 70s, and you can learn it on piano (along with the rest of this classic hit!) here.
This piano arrangement of Dancing in the Moonlight is fantastic to play! You can learn it with our #SheetMusicBoss Synthesia #PianoTutorial or from our official Sheet Music Boss sheet music at the top of the description!

Day 1 of wondering why everyone is asking for so many songs and not appreciating this masterpiece.

[@patriciacastaneda6940]

L

[@madelinerock6951]

Smh Because we know how much success this channel has garnered, we watch these masterpieces and think, “wow, what a wonderful arrangement, I wonder if they might be able to do....” Just because we want to see something different doesn’t mean we’re unappreciative of this piece.

[@tarun5450]

@@madelinerock6951 factsss I keep seeing everyone post this comment but it’s like they don’t understand we love this arrangement as well and because it’s so good we want to see other ones for songs we love.

[@madelinerock6951]

@@tarun5450 I don’t want to be shamed for putting in a request for a personal favorite song, y’know?

[@Jay-xb2sx]

[@Dexter26958]

Thanks for taking my suggestion!! And you perfectly uploaded this on my birthday, too so it's even better :D Thanks for the present!

Day 3 of asking SMB to arrange a song they’ve always wanted to but never had a request for!

[@despacito_spajder953]

blessed by the peeps themselves

[@welcometoreality437]

Fun fact: The more likes you have the faster you'll get even more.

[@pogness]

Is it possible to experience nostalgia to a song that you've never experienced?

[@easttoast42]

Yes, check out California Kids by Weezer or The Suburbs by Arcade Fire

[@sainsburyslocal]

Yes, search 1985 by Bowling For Soup.

[@joshux183]

i asked my self this the other day, can you have nostalgia for something you never experienced i came to the conclusion of yes, because nostalgia is a feeling of being in the past so even if the thing your experiencing nostalgia with isn’t in your past, you can still feel nostalgic because it takes you back

[@vascosanchez8550]

Yeah, just check Tiny Love by Mika NOSTALGIC AF

[@MinecraftPro97k]

Hell yeah! I grew up with VHS tapes even though I was born in 2003.

[@maniacalkoala]

This song is so nostalgic for me (King Harvest version though), but I still absolutely LOVE this song! So beautiful, gave me a warm feeling inside, remembering back on days when everyone could dance together and party all night long. What I wouldn’t give to live a COVID free life again... thank you SMB!

[@mc.2416]

The song sounds quite happy, but it has a very tragic backstory. Without going into too much depth, Sherman Kelly wrote it while recovering from the night he and his girlfriend were brutally attacked by a gang on a beach at St. Croix, it was a miracle he survived and went on to write this.

[@chillpill2016]

That’s....disurbing

[@catatafish22]

It's divine inspiration in my eyes... To turn such a horrible experience into a beautiful song like this can't be anything but divine

[@Alex-cw3rz]

Very much so that gang k illed 8 american tourist

[@fofwew]

Everyone is asking for songs and I just want to say that I love this one

[@Clum_06]

I feel bad about the amount of requests compared to positive comments about the arrangement, because this sounds incredible as always, keep up the good work guys because it’s some of the best stuff on KZbin

[@TReZxDrEaMz]

One of my favorite songs of all time! Thanks a lot for this cover. This song means a lot to me.

[@plaguies_lee1669]

THANK YOU!!!! I requested this ages ago and saw someone's request in the discord!!! Made my day :D

A little disappointed that this is not the far superior King Harvest original. Still good, though. I've wanted to play it ever since I first heard that delightful keyboard riff, and now I can!

[@rafaelmartinez1368]

Life must be playing tricks on me. I discovered this song yesterday and have been listening nonstop and now I see this. It got me wondering, could it be that punching Cheeto girl meme that made this popular and got you guys to do this song?

I'm too lazy to count the days, and knowing how long people have been asking for certain pieces, I probably won't continue, but I'd go haywire with happiness if you took a look at the Touhou 10.5 soundtrack. It has some amazing remixes of older Touhou pieces, and the few originals it has are just amazing. Anything would be wonderful, but the jazz arrangement of the final boss theme Catastrophe in Bhava-agra is too good not to solo piano.
