If there's ever been a band that has developed over the years, I'd say its maroon 5, with more and more solid music. I continue to like their sound. This week I did one of their recent songs 'Nobody's Love'.
I Hope you like the songs I select, but if you ever have request for improvements, or a song you'd like to hear, ple...

This week a song by Justin Bieber, that truly resembles what a lot of people are feeling right now due to all the covid measures around the world. I myself find it increasingly frustrating not being able to travel the way I want, or visit the places I want because stuff is closed, and as many of my friends live abroad, ...
2020-11-08 21:10:06 +0000 UTC View PostHi dear Patrons,
I sort of missed this one for the first couple of months. It's been out for a while, al trending and hyped in the hit lists, and super coverable (I think I could do 1 hour of variations on this theme alone). As I listened to it this week in the supermarket, it hit me like a good idea, let's do this ...
2020-11-01 20:07:03 +0000 UTC View PostThis one is both new and a little bit of an experiment, so please be gentle :) The song is both extremely catchy and repetitive, so that makes for a fun flow of chords and notes if you can sort of 'chain them together'. I've tried to do exactly that, but it also became a bit chaotic. Hope you still like it. If not, I'll return to normal mode aft...
2020-10-25 20:22:16 +0000 UTC View PostHi dear Patrons,
This one was on multiple requests, and I actually did not think it would have been that hard, but the dominance of Beyonce's voice sort of identify the whole song. When you leave that out and need to fill it with just the piano.. Pff, not the easiest once, let's just say that. I hope you like the version. Have a grea...

This week I share with you a great song by one of my favorite modern artists, Emeli Sande. I say too much that artists are underappreciated or underrated (which everybody always says now...) but lets just say that she has an amazing voice, and she uses it very well, namely to sing great songs. Me playing around those song...

Red Hot Chili Peppers, have made so many songs I like, that its almost impossible to pinpoint one or two that stand out. Maybe its Californication (that was also the name of the album on which this song was featured) but this one stands out as well. Road Trippin is such a simple song, and it is according to wiki one ...

The song for this week is one that I thought was done by Ronan Keating, but was actually the third one to perform that song. He might be the one that had the most success with it though, and it launched his solo career. I hope you like my version, and if there's anything I can help with, please let me now.
I've &nbs...
2020-09-27 19:59:32 +0000 UTC View PostHi Patrons,
This week fortunately a newer song that I got through a suggestion by Spotify, and I liked it a lot. Hope you enjoy it. If you have any questions, comments or ways I could help out. Please let me know. Appreciate you, as always.

This week an old song, that I actually only know because my sister had a cd (yes a cd) where it was on. I remember as a child that I liked the tune, and for some reason it popped into my head earlier this week, so I thought I'd do it justice by covering it :) I don't know the artist besides this song, so could even b...

As you probably know by now, I am a big admirer of John Legend. The guy seems to have his life in pretty awesome shape, and he's a super talented songwriter. In addition he also sings very well and oh yeah plays the piano (probably a lot better than me). Very admirable indeed :). Up to me then the good task to cover as mu...

Maybe you've read the description in the YouTube upload, but this week was a tough one. I'm a huge Amy Winehouse fan, and I truly believe she was (or could have been/become) a one in a generation type of artist. With such talent, sensitivity and great songs, it's a shame she's gone before we got to hear more). At th...

One of my favorite songs this week.
I find this song fascinating for many reasons. Normally I am much more of a melody than a text person (you'd figure, or else I'd have a lyrics channel...) , but for this one the text really stands out. It's actually a tribute to Dutch painter Vincent Van Gogh. The references...
2020-08-23 19:11:45 +0000 UTC View PostHi Dear Patrons,
This week's upload is one from my childhood.. It was at its height when I was in my early teens, so I'll keep the song probably in my head for my entire life. I've attached the files (midi + audio) in the post, feel free to ask questions, suggest stuff or do requests!
As always, thanks a lot!

An old classic (Tony Rich), and a cover of a cover (inception..) of a very popular Chinese song (justifiably so, good song), both requested. I love doing all time great songs or new hits, but sometimes its just as fun if you're remembered (or pointed to) a song through others. So thank you for your support, and also the r...

I'd never thought I'd send you a Taylor Swift cover, but turns out either I'm not too old for it, or I grossly underestimated her music, or both :). I thought this song was very cool, and I had fun playing it. If you have any suggestions for songs or other ideas for the channel ( or any other way I could add something for...
2020-08-02 20:38:25 +0000 UTC View PostHi dear Patrons,
A classic song this week, with Eric Clapton's tears in Heaven, a song mostly heard (and Iconic) for the guitar, but also very applicable to a piano. I hope you like it!
I've attached the Midi / audio files for the song. Appreciate you a lot!
As always, thanks and have a great week!

As it is very summery (in most of Europe at least) and I was due for a more happy (and modern) song after a few weeks of classics, here's a Harry Styles song, that made me feel like summer quite a bit. Happy and simple, very nice. I've attached the audio and midi file, feel free to reach out should you have any quest...

Please find attached bth the midi and audio file of the Beatle's Yesterday.

I hope you enjoy this week's version. Very good on...

This week 2 uploads again, one (slightly) older one and one (slightly) newer one. Both similar types of songs as well. Maybe that's why they're combined in this week :).

A classic this week from my side. I'm currently going through a playlist which is called top 2000, an end of year hit list with the greatest songs ever. This Spotify list also gives a LOT of inspiration for future songs... I think I have some work to do still. For example, cover ALL the Beatles songs... or the stone...

I came back to a somewhat newer song this week, as I finally found one that lends itself to a piano version. I like a challenge or creative effort, but some of the rap/dubstep music is very tough to piano-nize... This song caught my attention though and I'm glad it did. I hope you like my version. I've attached...

Some of you may enjoy a longer weekend, if so enjoy! I will attach the Midi-files & audio files of this week's uploads below. When I started this idea of posting cover songs, I set my goal for at least 1,000 videos. I've done a little over 100 now, and I'm still amazed at how many songs still come up in my head over t...
