Geralt de Pistola Yes, because Mozart created his pieces with only practice. The guy was a child prodigy, talent is a thing that exists. Those with talent will always be better with practice than those who achieved theirs with practice alone.
@@decimation9780 He pulled off great performance, no doubt about it, but you surely don't play piano if you think that the piano part alone was super hard.
@@MegaGaradag Depends entirely upon the piece itself, as well as tempo. Granted this was definitely on the easier side, but it’s still worth mentioning nonetheless.
Mad respect to the guy handlin the lights. Edit: wow this video popped up in my recommended again and i forgot i left this comment here lol. Thanks for the likes.
The beginning of the final performance is the soundtrack from the movie Interstellar, very great movie it's very emotional and I get chills every time I watch it.
That feeling of being completely taken over is so personified. Another musician can understand the feeling when every note you play resonates within you. You literally become numb to the outside world and for a rare moment live in that very space and time.
My first sight of true passion as you just described was from Tash Sultana. So inspiring to see that amount of passion in someone doing what they love.
Imagine how the crowd feels the bass hitting their chest... the emotion in that moment I can feel it through the screen image that live in person woah 😨
I love how he is not just some guy who can play the piano, but he shows STRONG passion while he plays. Which is AMAZING. And you can also tell that he is very brilliant by the way he smoothly merges different songs. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK TOKIO!!!!!!!
Ok, he play piano, pretty well, but he doesn't sing, and the way he use his BeatBox is quiet basic. A good contestant, for sure. But a lot of artist do this much better than he did.
Tbh, he's very talented but there are several other pianists, his age and younger and this is more of a skill..... izzy though definitely worked very hard and magic isn't that easy to learn especially at her age...
Mac Busby because you don’t hear anything about him now, which to be honest I’m not surprised if you win BGT it’s not gonna make you that big just like the voice
He released his album at the start of 2018 I think and that went pretty well. I think after that he released a few singles and is working on another album. But it's true, the fame and recognition from BGT hasn't translated that well:( People should check out his youtube @Tokio Myers
The last performance killed it...I love that movie, love the soundtrack from that movie, I also play piano. That dude is a beast. Hats off to him for all of his performances.
This isn’t a damn Mozart classical performance where the entire audience are middle aged men and women who own mansions. This audience aren’t educated on how to be a proper audience. So, please, stop implying your sense of professionalism by ridiculing the audience who don’t know any better.
@@done4195 how could the live shows be staged though? I mean maybe the auditions are staged but semi finals and finals are LIVE on TV. And he won by LIVE VOTING from the people in the UK.
Most performers show their talent with talking, singing or with stunts some being dangerous and yet don't even make it to the finals like this guy did. It's a very rare talent which is why he won and deserved it. Talent, art and music connected together creates something magical that is virtually undescribable, indestructible and undisputable all at the same time. Very unique indeed.
Not at all lmao. This guy is nothing compared to pretty much any musician in a Music university. It's just showy with no real substance. Evgeny Kissin is huge. Daniil Trifonov is huge. Arthur Rubinstein is huge. Daniel Barenboim is huge. Maria Joao Pires is huge. The list can go on. Saying that this guys' playing is in any way comparable to them is disrespectful to them.
I have never seen a musician so magical in my 54 yrs of life. Every piece played he becomes one with each note, his soul burns and radiates. Absolutely incredible..I have never seen this. I thank him for sharing his gift. He is definitely the best pianist/musician I have witnessed.No comparison
shekhar sharma i’m pretty sure he had carpal tunnel or something wrong with his wrists and or hands and that’s why he went on the show to play until he cant
What a time to be alive for true talent! Im thrilled Tokio won, his performances are out of the world. Every time i hear him playing, i get the chills and feel his emotions. He IS the Beethoven of the 21st century!
Mrs Periodic Table He’s a great performer, not a great pianist. Huge difference. If you want to see the current day Beethoven, look up Valentina Lisitsa.
The Wumbology Expert I encourage you to watch any world class pianist for comparison. What you described is what I said. He captivated an audience, certainly, but his piano skills are on par with the average trained pianist. Nothing special. He can put on a show, but don’t compare him with the likes of Beethoven.
I'm still wondering why he wasn't given the golden buzzer in the first audition , he's out of this world..and is taking us with him dunno what to say honestly the best bgt performance I have ever watched
rand qasm it may have been that they knew he'd go through. The golden buzzer was introduced for each judge to get one act into the live shows that they thought the other judges wouldn't put through otherwise
rand qasm The judges wanted to hear more of his beautiful creations just because he is THAT good... Golden buzzer means straight to the semi finals = Only 3 performances in total!! What a waste!! WE WANT MORE!
To be a good pianist you have to feel the notes, this guy is the only person i have ever seen keep his eyes close and feel every note, understand and just play his heart out, such an amazing performance
I don’t get this, his piano playing is average for someone who played for a year or two and he’s just coupled that with backing music and all of a sudden everyone’s calling him Mozart. Yes he played with passion but pretty much every piano player I know does and many with much better pieces than this. You can make the most mundane of players sound good when you have effects and backing singers like this.
I have never commented before on any video on youtube but after listening to this guy, he should be considered a legend after Yanni. So much creativity and the way he combines the instruments, its phenomenal. I hope our African musicians can one day be better than this.
His energy, passion and talent made me tearful, right from the first note he played. Incredible to see how connected he is with the piano and music. And proves that it doesnt matter if your upbringing is a less fortunate part of the world. If you are to shine, you will shine :) Inspired me and hope everyone else too x
This guy is in a league of his own. From the first audition I said to my family that's the winner. You can feel the passion for music through his performance. Just incredible, probably the best act BGT ever had. I truly mean that
BRO COMON HES FRINKING KILLING IT ABD YOUR SAYING TAHTS GREAT LIKE DUDE GREAT IS NOTHING LET NE TELL U WHAT THE WORLD U SHOUD TELL HIM THIS IS IT WTH OMĢGHGGGGGGGGGGGGGG HES THE KING BRO
He could be, the final song he was playing was actually composed by Hans Zimmer for the Inception soundtrack I believe. Could be wrong about the movie but it was definitely Hans Zimmer
Still amazed at all of his performances, and it’s also very rare that the final performance is the best one, but it most definitely is - still takes my breath away
Tokio Myers is my inspiration. I've been playing piano ever since I was 3 years old (surprisingly). I'm 14 now. I've never had a teacher, so I've learned the piano by heart. I also decided to play Drums in my middle school when there wasn't any options left, since the band NEEDED a drummer. Because of this, I'm playing the drums in an EXTREMELY advanced band class in my Highschool. I'm the ONLY freshman EVER to have done this in my Highschool. But the piano is what lives in my heart. When I saw Tokio Myers perform on BGT, I was inspired. He was a percussionist AND a pianist?! I know I have the same connection with Tokio, cause we both have the exact same taste in music, especially when I cried so loud when I realized he played the main theme of interstellar as his final performance. It's because I never had a teacher that I FEEL my music. I need my piano, and my piano needs me. I hope that one day, I would just be a happy old man playing the piano with my grandkids.
@@montetanktankkiller700 .... id like to see proof of that. Besides its not simply the proficiency that makes this performance, but the emotion and how it was put together so masterfully
@@montetanktankkiller700 why are u judging the level of his playing instead of how the pieces he plays sounds? you're basically saying that you only enjoy pieces that sound hard and not good? No one here mentioned "how hard and challenging the pieces sounds and therefore I enjoy it". Use your brain and stop feeding your own ego
@@unmilkedpotato5006 BS eg. For Elise, no matter how good the playing can be, it's just not at the level to win that kind of competition. A little claim must be allowed. And this has absolutely nothing to do with feeding my ego. I have taught at least 2800 pianists in my life. Many became orchestral musicians or pianists in their own right. This is just a laughing matter trimmed for TV.
Sure the Notes and Sound were good, and everything was excellent, but you have to take time to consider how much time, imagination, and creativity into it, and for the last one, the smooth transition to, "im only human after all" was great, maybe it was taking note to his past but idk, either way it was great, great job Tokyo Myers!!
I love the way Tokio flutters his fingertips as he’s finished playing........he’s so deeply talented. I have to listen to him everyday, and I wake up with his music in my head. He should be given a Bond film to score the opening titles......that would be perfect!
There's that special and unique feeling that gets into your soul each time he plays the piano. you are so special and may your music continue to bless many souls.
i’m usually a rap type of guy, but ever since i’ve watched this video, i just can’t stop watching. like he’s so passionate, and his music is so amazing
When you have people who feel music in their veins and their soul and then they spread it out to everyone so that they can feel it too. That's the power of music. ❤️🎵
There are only limited who feel the music from and heart, soul and body and Tokyo Myres is one of them. See his facial expressions while he plays piano and drum. True and gr8 talent. Hatsoff😀😳😳😱😍

how do u know?
What else could it be? Chance? I don't think so.

The way he plays it. He feels it. Just like he said in the auditions. He turns all the negativity into positive through music. ❤
SO TRUE
He's not only a pianist, he's a producer
Duh 🤣🤣
I was thinking he should be a composer.
I saw that he IS now writing and composing music for movies!!!!!! He is beyond amazing
He is more than a pianiast
He is an artist
So beautiful person!!!😄
This man plays like each note he touches is healing a part of his soul.
he’s fully connected to his music
He’s a good example of when someone says your born to do certain things like I never been so moved so much in my life by a musician

Yeah I hate when singers go on Britain's Got Talent There's other programmes for singing in instead
This is by far the greatest performance i have ever seen in BGT...
I don’t get this, his piano playing is average for someone who played for a year or two and he’s just coupled that with backing music and all of a sudden everyone’s calling him Mozart. Yes he played with passion but pretty much every piano player I know does and many with much better pieces than this. You can make the most mundane of players sound good when you have effects and backing singers like this.
@@lasagne4767 I was just thinking this guess I'm missing something
i thought exactly the same xD, i could play like that with 3 days of practice, i am a good player already.
2022 and I'm still here and I still get chills... 🥺❤
True…such an good artist ❤.
still here
Facts the amount of times I came back and watched this is crazy 😂
Yeah
I have never commented before on any video on youtube but after listening to this guy, he should be considered a legend after Yanni. So much creativity and the way he combines the instruments, its phenomenal. I hope our African musicians can one day be better than this.
Kenechukwu Ezenwanne well ur only comment got 62 likes
ScrappyCFW that’s a lot for a first comment
Not Second yep
Who tells you it's true ? Could say the same just to get some attention ;)
Nice name
His energy, passion and talent made me tearful, right from the first note he played. Incredible to see how connected he is with the piano and music. And proves that it doesnt matter if your upbringing is a less fortunate part of the world. If you are to shine, you will shine :) Inspired me and hope everyone else too x
I agree. Emotion in music makes it magical. I loved every second of this.
He’ll it seems oftentimes that growing up less fortunate is the catalyst for many artists to find their own voice & passion
colombiecup luv you for writing this
Greatly spoken brought me to tears *clap *clap *clap
colombiecup ok

This guy is in a league of his own. From the first audition I said to my family that's the winner. You can feel the passion for music through his performance. Just incredible, probably the best act BGT ever had. I truly mean that
There won’t be another contestant like him!! Too good 👏🏽

😊😊😊...
How on earth can he manage to play this concert-quality piece with his eyes closed and not play one note wrong?? Pure stardom!!
bc he wasnt playing 95% of this💀
3:38 the amount of soul this man just put into that ONE key DESTROYS me inside.
He can be a great producer
Off_time stuffs he is
BRO COMON HES FRINKING KILLING IT ABD YOUR SAYING TAHTS GREAT LIKE DUDE GREAT IS NOTHING LET NE TELL U WHAT THE WORLD U SHOUD TELL HIM THIS IS IT WTH OMĢGHGGGGGGGGGGGGGG HES THE KING BRO
He could be, the final song he was playing was actually composed by Hans Zimmer for the Inception soundtrack I believe. Could be wrong about the movie but it was definitely Hans Zimmer
It was created by Hans Zimmer but for Interstellar. (Hans Zimmer - No Time For Caution)
Off_time stuffs i mma thinking same
3 things that happened this week.
1. My neighbor said he don’t like dis guy
2. He was hit by a car
3. I lost my drivers license
Sharan Dillon Damn bruh. Same thing happened to me
Sharan Dillon yes sharon
Why is he so overrated he plays like a 5y/o
Y did the same thing happen to me?
@@REX-zl8wb hahaha, good joke dude.
Still amazed at all of his performances, and it’s also very rare that the final performance is the best one, but it most definitely is - still takes my breath away
6:55 I like how he stopped here and start Interstellar's main theme (middle notes)
S.T.A.Y the best one
Yes
M.A. Zaki I was looking for this comment
JamesL12 me too. Loved it
@@j03al28 good to know that.
A worthy winner with real talent. I hope he's got a good career now.
srsly what is he doing now
Tokio Myers is my inspiration. I've been playing piano ever since I was 3 years old (surprisingly). I'm 14 now. I've never had a teacher, so I've learned the piano by heart. I also decided to play Drums in my middle school when there wasn't any options left, since the band NEEDED a drummer. Because of this, I'm playing the drums in an EXTREMELY advanced band class in my Highschool. I'm the ONLY freshman EVER to have done this in my Highschool. But the piano is what lives in my heart. When I saw Tokio Myers perform on BGT, I was inspired. He was a percussionist AND a pianist?! I know I have the same connection with Tokio, cause we both have the exact same taste in music, especially when I cried so loud when I realized he played the main theme of interstellar as his final performance. It's because I never had a teacher that I FEEL my music. I need my piano, and my piano needs me. I hope that one day, I would just be a happy old man playing the piano with my grandkids.
Weird flex, but okay.
@@jesperpetersen169 not ok
Hugh G. Rection oh yeah yeah
Oh yeah yeah
Thanks for telling us your entire musical biography
I feel this in my soul. He literally brings me to tears. His music is so powerful.
What? My daughter of 8 years plays better. He is just a good looking guy-and thats it. No talent.
@@montetanktankkiller700 .... id like to see proof of that. Besides its not simply the proficiency that makes this performance, but the emotion and how it was put together so masterfully
@@montetanktankkiller700 you’re a jealous and insecure guy 😭
@@montetanktankkiller700 why are u judging the level of his playing instead of how the pieces he plays sounds? you're basically saying that you only enjoy pieces that sound hard and not good? No one here mentioned "how hard and challenging the pieces sounds and therefore I enjoy it". Use your brain and stop feeding your own ego
@@unmilkedpotato5006 BS eg. For Elise, no matter how good the playing can be, it's just not at the level to win that kind of competition. A little claim must be allowed. And this has absolutely nothing to do with feeding my ego. I have taught at least 2800 pianists in my life. Many became orchestral musicians or pianists in their own right. This is just a laughing matter trimmed for TV.
Sure the Notes and Sound were good, and everything was excellent, but you have to take time to consider how much time, imagination, and creativity into it, and for the last one, the smooth transition to, "im only human after all" was great, maybe it was taking note to his past but idk, either way it was great, great job Tokyo Myers!!
@CoreyEXE! its probably cuz of autocorrect
Electrifying performance
I love the way Tokio flutters his fingertips as he’s finished playing........he’s so deeply talented. I have to listen to him everyday, and I wake up with his music in my head. He should be given a Bond film to score the opening titles......that would be perfect!
You have no clue how easy the pieces were. Nothing special
There's that special and unique feeling that gets into your soul each time he plays the piano. you are so special and may your music continue to bless many souls.
This guy deserves several music awards... such a talent ❤❤❤
2 sides of life:
•Emotion
•Harmony
I agree
the passion he has for music is just so strongly expressed; much respect!
i’m usually a rap type of guy, but ever since i’ve watched this video, i just can’t stop watching. like he’s so passionate, and his music is so amazing
When you have people who feel music in their veins and their soul and then they spread it out to everyone so that they can feel it too. That's the power of music. ❤️🎵
Can we appreciate the fact that his eyes were closed the entire time
It wasn't
It wasn't at all
No
@@TalkingThrones understandable, have a good day sir
I think he means that a lot of the times the camera was pointed to him he closed his eyes
Ok I thought Issy Simpson should’ve won but now I watched this and I think he’s definitely deserved it.
Teo Georgescu you thought an 8 yr old girl should of one😂😂😂😂😂Jesus christtttt
Teo Georgescu same
Alex Wallin an 8 year old girl who has way more talent than you. And I bet she would know the different between one and won lmao
Teo Georgescu same
OG Boxer I think she’d also know the difference between “different” and “difference” 😂😂
There are only limited who feel the music from and heart, soul and body and Tokyo Myres is one of them. See his facial expressions while he plays piano and drum. True and gr8 talent. Hatsoff😀😳😳😱😍

He feels every nuance, emotion of each note. Love his vibes
