Crazy Random guy Rocks out the piano in a hardware store.
The piano isn't even functional!
the player is Jake Tolliver, check him out for more of his amazing playing.
He's proving that classic rock 'n' roll from the 50's is immortal.
That is actually the blues
@@GabrielFoshee. … you reply to someone’s comment after 6 years to say some false. Blues is usually a slow and much more melodic with intricate jazz harmonies. This is rock n roll, by the Killer himself, the king of rock n roll: Jerry Lee Lewis. This style includes no swing, repetition, much more energy, and bashing. A classic loved style of music that won’t die unlike blues that is no longer popular but got implemented into many other styles like rock, country, metal just to name a few.
Yeah I know right
Jacob Tolliver played for Jerry Lee at his 85th Bday!👍👍👍
This guy is so good
OK, for those who think he's "Crazy", you might want to look up a guy named Jerry Lee Lewis. Jerry Lee's style is exactly what this guy is emulating, and it's the only way Boogie Woogie piano should be played. This guy nails everything perfectly. Absolutely awesome.
This guy definitely is good and amazing, but he is a little sloppy. Jerry lee does get nuts with his dancing and head bobbing and things like that, but his playing and timing is spot on. This guy speeds up and slows down speeds up then slows down. When he is getting crazy and pulling his hand high up and hitting the notes crazily you can listen and tell he hits multiple notes that are wrong and it blurs the sound and some notes sound off and sloppy. If he would just tighten up the screws a little, he could be a whole lot better, if he can get any more awesome.
Yeah, but he's not some weirdo like some people were implying. And he's much better than I could be. 😀
I think I may have used an expression that is just used where I live, but you misinterpreted it. I said he's "Crazy", meaning I was amazed by how good he was. Like sometimes people say wow that catch he made was insane! for example. Sorry Michael didn't mean he was actually crazy, I was super impressed.
LOL, OK. 😀 Crazy good, makes sense.
Rydeman2 And Jerry lee Lewis should be played with precision?
Now we know where the spirit of Jerry Lee went! This guy is a pure reincarnation - down to the last detail and how much he gets into the music.
That aint no random guy, THATS JACOB TOLIVER!!
I want to say he nailed it but I'm afraid people might think I'm trying to make a pun, so I'll say he hammered it, probably got screwed for it, and he really drilled into that piano...
haha PUNS!
+Cody Morgan that's true...i never saw anything like it! hope he becomes a permanent fixture there.... i bet +JCB wants to see his caulk.
+Cody Morgan U almost made me pee my pants dude!!! U R hilarious!!!
i would say he blew everyone away..
He brought his piano to the hardware store because he heard they make keys...
This young man is absolutely amazing. Great technique and voice and spirit. Rock on!
i don't care if this was random or not. THIS GUY IS GOOOOOD!!!
and he is missing a finger, he is super with his talent
Nve noticed that👍👍
He said he doesn't use his pinkies, " reduces the chance of mistakes by 20%" that is what i thought too!
He brings out the pinkies on rare occasions. But he says it’s easier to play without them. Every piano teacher is stunned that he can do this with such an odd technique
@@halv0420 not hard to use for any of the chords, it’s just that in my experience improving this style, I often will have to go-to riffs that I have practiced in the past. My fingers remember how to play them when I want to. He has a great library of them with his muscle memory to not use his pinky, interesting and awesome.
What a great and spontaneous performance of a great song. Dude is VERY talented, seems a bit humble but confident at the same time---loved this!
jwa718 Delete? About as spontaneous as a grand piano (baby or otherwise) in the middle of a hardware store aisle "randomly".
Couldn't care about the quality of the film or the moaning comments about why a piano is in a hardware store. The guy can play! That's some fantastic foot tapping music going on!
Viewers should be grateful that the video is in landscape. People holding a smartphone have a 50% chance of getting it right, but more often than not they get it wrong.
Fabulous! I am in my 70s but he brought me back to my teen-age years with the great Jerry Lee Lewis! Rock on!!!!!
I had the privilege of seeing Jerry Lee, ChuckBerry, Bo Diddley, and a whole lot of other great musicians and singers perform one fabulous night in maybe 1971 at the LA Forum. Jerry woulda been proud of this kid. He just needs to learn to stand up and push the bench backwards and never miss a beat and play while standing up. I bet he could!
These people below arguing about posture and use of pinkies are hilarious. Does it really matter? The guy sounds awesome, and when it comes to music, that's all that counts.
aamen!!!!!!!!!!!!!
blacksabfan he only has 1 pinky anyway lol
blacksabfan Actually he sounds like a drunk guy, who has no clue of what he is doing. The composer must feel very bad hearing this guy "playing" his music.
B.noone
Where have you posted your music then?
I dont have to post music to show that im better :D. Sorry for sounding like a douchbag.
I was straight until I watched this
JCB O_o
ok
JCB
So youre out of the closet? :]
Shin Obi Well, i'm only attracted to men with herculean bodies... So partially out of the closet. I think I love you though
JCB You're so sweet. Im not gay sorry but you still sound like the sort Id have you as a friend irl :)
Nothing wrong with being gay if you're that way inclined.
(Oh btw.. Im no dad-bod, I like to work out) ;-)
Lol
Wow... Holy Cow is right! This kid has an amazing natural talent! He had to be born this way... in his DNA.
Just imagine if that bass hand had all 5 fingers! Nuts!
Outstanding ! I play this often, my mother played just like this, this video reminds me of her so many years ago.
Who cares why there's a piano in a hardware shop🙄
This guy can play piano like a pro. Loved it👍
He is unbelievable!!!
All of y'all worried about the camera quality are missing the point of the video its not about the quality of the video its showing an amazing talent he has
Ben Moore Agreed!!! Amazing!!!
This got to be one of the best cover ever done!! I would pay just to hear and see him play !!!!!!!!!!!! Aloha my man.
He has played Jerry Lee Lewis in Million Dollar Quartet! He is amazing!
Incredible talent, superb performance & personality to boot! Very enjoyable :)
Holy Cow! I haven't heard anyone pound the ivories like that since Jerry Lee walked up to the keyboard. this guy is just good. Thank You for sharing this video.
Rickey Mitchell..are you sure?.. OK.. then I would highly advise you to listen to Lucas Sestak "this piano song is very fast" or "key engine"... e sure.. it will fuckin' blow your mind.. 😉👍
Rickey Mitchell If you like Jerry then try some Jason D Williams also, if you haven't already.
Rickey Mitchell no s*** I totally agree with you it was awesome.
Rickey Mitchell He’s not just good. He’s fantastic. I think he outdid Jerry Lee.
He’s actually a Jerry Lee impersonator. He’s been perfecting his style for a long time.
All I can hear him saying is "Ahh bashah babasha hah!!" and stuff like that.
Emperor of Cartoons I know he's singing clearly, but the camera's sound quality isn't quite as good.
+Emporer of Cartoons I can only hear "whole lotta shaking going on"
lol... open your ears
+adam clark earthquake ?
i don't understand? what about an earthquake
This guy is more than amazing, he is EPIC!!!!!
It wasn't just his music... I was impressed with his explosive confidence!
It's moments like this where I wonder what I am doing with my life
I heard that
LoL! Same. :)
He's missing his little finger and still sounds amazing, so much credit to him, don't give a crap about camera quality when I can hear the piano!
Holy shit. I have watched this no less than 50 times. Beat video on youtube. I just realized he has a finger missing after reading your comment. Mind blown.
I know this is old now but he is not missing a finger.! Look at other videos of him.! He's a well known entertainer in some circles.!
Are his other fingers black ?
And now ,the most saddest,funniest,insane,
famous question in our human humanity yet:
WHY HE ISN'T FAMOUS?!
Ditto
I concur!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
His names jacob toliver check him out
I need this guy in my band, give me a call man, u rock and u got the roll, bravo
He plays in Vegas
Man you tore them keys up ! You made Jerry Lee proud
He's not crazy! He's got Boogie-Woogie in his soul baby!
Am en
I think that guy's single spontaneous act was more marvelous than anything I've ever done in my whole life...
Let's see I'll be needing some 3 inch wood screws, some duct tape, and a baby grand piano.
Omg is he missing a baby finger on his left hand?! This boss is the boss of all bosses ✌
Thanks -__- now i cant stop looking at it.
He looks like the kind of guy who might lose a baby finger. lol
Alright Kidder nope, it's curled under the same as his right hand pinky finger. Kinda a bummer cuz that was awesome!
ha ha ha it completely got me! Cheers
Ew
Holy smokin piano!!!! That was awesome!!!
There are so many talented people in the world. Amazing job!!
That playing is even more awesome considering he doesn't have the use of all five fingers on his left hand. Well done sir!! Definitely rates a thumbs-up.
Freakin' amazing! Kid must have been doing this since age 5. Crazy? Yeah, just like that wacked out crazy-man, the wild, madly talented singer/pianist Jerry Lee Lewis. He has Lewis's chops down -- the songs, the tempo, the piano work (using the entire keyboard, top to bottom), even the voice (and, I think, the accent). We need more "random crazy" like this. I wonder if JLL has seen this?
He's not bad, but I wouldn't call this amazing, not even close. His hands and fingers are way too stiff, and if he doesn't improve his posture, he won't get any better. Other than that, he's alright, but way better than I can do, that's for sure.
miszuisu Please don't take this as snappy, but I'm confused as to how you can critique him if it's already way better than you can do? Not to mention how you can manage to tell how stiffly he happens to be holding the muscles inside his fingers from a 240p resolution video. Are you a music teacher that doesn't play piano or something?
miszuisu fuck you your just a TH-cam critic who is jealous of someone with talent unlike yourself
miszuisu huh you do not play the piano. Reminds me of a recital posture is everything. Guess you played up till 8th grade!
Ik this was 7 years ago so u probably know this but Jacob is actually friends with the Lewis family now
Damn, that's gotta feel awesome to be able to do that!
Love it! Never get tired of this,I come back & listen often.....
You rock! Very cool walking into a hardware store and hearing this ! Great job it brought a huge smile to my face
He's good... Uninhibited fun. It doesn't get better than that.
Greg Scott would have loved to been shopping and see this!
whileu slept reincarnated....
This guy did Jerry Lee proud...good job!
I was thinking of him. JLL.
On fire.
This guys was like JLL reincarnated...?
I know right
The only way to truly honor Jerry Lee would be to marry his cousin, so...
Wow..incredible, it is wonderful to see a younger generation playing and enjoying what rock n roll is all about.
Talk about carrying on! Rock on brother👍👍
This gave me chills....
+Hayley Ward When you play and listen to jazz alot, it kinda wears off.
+Zachary Robinson (GMOtheEMO) Your comment is so hilarious. It sounds so snobby, get your nose out of the sky dude.
Keegan Beyer Well its true! lol
hey chuck!, this your cousin Marvin.. Marvin Berry! You know that new sound you's lookin for?
Listen to this!
+Jeff Hartwig That made me LOL
BACK TO THE FUTURE BABEH!!!!!
hahahahaha nice one
except he was playing a Jerry Lee Lewis song
scooter2ish buh.. buh..... buh its back to the future :*_(
Now! That was really great! Great playing you did right there! AWESOME man!
We need random pianos everywhere. Keep em coming.
this is what happens when kids aren't allowed to play call of duty 20 hrs a day
I play games a lot and do other stuff and I am good at violin and my classes. It's not about games. It's about the system, kids, Social media. Some people just suck (lots of people)
that's true, some ppl just suck
No. It is when the stepfather comes in ,
Lol. Exactly.
I dont play cod at all and i cant that
This guy is really talented!! Rocking the bass with 4 fingers, too?!!? He's got some mad skills going on right here :-)
Could be he already wore his fingers off, lmao
Fun fact - in 7th grade, he broke his pinky playing football in gym class. This is why he positions his hand so awkwardly.
The perks of being friends with him is that when he’s a household name I’ll be able to rattle off random facts about him that nobody else would have ever known. lol
@@TheJordanHyland Who is he??
@Some One he is missing a finger on his left hand and still plays like a wild man. Pretty good.
@@TheJordanHyland I thought that was jacob toliver at first in the thumbnail but after listening to him i know its him, jerry lee was so wild he couldnt even wait to die before being reincarnated.
You are lucky jake is a great piano player, and i love the way he dances and plays loosely instead of being so serious.
This is the epiphany of genuine raw talent! Amazing doesn't even begin to explain his talent!
When he lights it up @2:24 I can feel the energy he's bringing. This video will never get old to me even if it's only been 9 yrs when it first debuted and I watched for the very first time. Love it
It's too bad that we don't have more places like this Hardware Store where ordinary people like this guy get the chance to show off their talent . I remember watching a Video where they sat up a Piano at the Airport and total strangers would sit down to play it was awesome to watch. This shows me that Music can really bring people together in a good way. I bet there are millions of people like this man who will never have the chance to show their talent and that's a real shame. I remember being on a ship coming to the United States and watching a group of Americans playing guitar . ..so I went and got mine and joined them ,even though I didn't speak any English ... I will never forget that day. Music can bring people together and it is awesome.
aside for how well he plays I love how into it he gets ,like he doesn't care who is watching he is just being himself and he is in bliss. I wish more people were like this , people that did things they enjoyed for their own happiness
Thank you for posting! This young man has a gift. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to watch it again - in awe.
If they make a movie on the life of jerry lee, they need not audition, they just found their boy, and i am an irishman in rural kentucky
Steve Logan he actually is playing jerry lee in a movie i believe 🤪
Rebecca Morgan seriously ? No way, that would be awesome, ty for info, have a nice day
Im irish aswell
@@stevelogan5475 yep, million dollar quartet
They already made a movie with Denis Quaid it’s called great balls of fire!
That's what i feel like when i go to bed.
Omg xD
Super !!!
how do you fall asleep being like that! seems to exciteable to sleep.
I feel like the world is ending when I go to bed.
i feel u dan.
holy shizzle this is incredible
That was completely awesome!!!! Thank you for sharing this amazing talent.
Some people have great skill and talent. This guy is one of them... Well done Sir..
I have to confess he does give ol' Jerry a run for his money.
He's not just a "crazy random guy". His name is Jacob Tolliver. He is only 17 years old! Look for other videos on TH-cam using his name for the search term. What a talent!
Suddenly remembered this guy’s video after almost a decade and came to watch this video. Still hits the same!!
I could listen to that kind of stuff all afternoon long! Thanks for sharing.
The finger dexterity of piano players never ceases to amaze me.
Imagine what the audience at americas got talent would react to this.. everybody would be on their feets dancing :D
+DarkCreatorn Currently playing with the Million Dollar Quartet Show at Harrahs
in Las Vegas
He auditioned for Idol - for some stupid reason the judges didn't like it much
He is doing a top notch Jerry Lee Lewis impersonation... Piano, voice, and all! Great job! 💖💖💖
that was him all over again. BEAUTIFUL performance!!!!!!!!
He's not crazy he's enthusiastic.
And talented imagine him showing up at the blind auditions on "The Voice", he is actually built like, and resembles Jerry Lee, tell me he wouldnt have a shot at having his own show in Vegas!! Especially a tribute to Jerry Lee show!!! I seriously doubt thats the only Jerry Lee Lewis song he knows!!!!
This was why the like button was created 😀
Amazing the talent that is walking around we don't even know / hear of until someone this this fella walks in and just starts playing. Planned or not, he is quite talented !!!!!
People that do this are about my favorite kind of people in the whole world! And sometimes we would never know about these talented people without the internet!! GREAT VIDEO!! LOVE IT! LOVE IT! Thank you soooo much for posting this. Now, I'm sending it to Facebook! My class of 1962 (Atlanta) will love it....their families will love it....and they will pass it all over the world.....etc. 😀
I would give my right arm to play like that......Oh, wait a minute......
LOL
+ylekiote99999 lol made me spit up my coffee.
+ylekiote99999 I'm sitting here watching this at 3 AM ..thought I was going to make everyone jump out of their beds I was laughing so hard reading your comment lol...That just made me laugh so hard .
+Muhnster62 That was one of the best comments ever lol.
just tell ur friend to give up their left arm. gg
203 people have absolutely no taste.
+Dan Holland Never mind about no taste they either forgot to turn on sound or are totally tone deaf lol
now there are 616 couch potatoes that should be used as cameras
SPECTACULAR...I always love hearing ppl like you play...because you LOVE to play.
yep!
I'M SO HAPPY I FOUND THIS VIDEO!!! HE'S AWESOME!!! 😁😁
I doubt this is random... because if hardware stores are known for anything, it's their pianos.
true dat
You've never been to a tiny town, huh? :)
+Oyster Mayer sarcastically
you've expressed my thoughts well.
I only see the word "unfinished" which I consider quite fitting since it is missing a cover as well as some color...
he even sounds like jerry lee lewis!
+hifijohn I was thinking this kid is Jerry Lee reincarnated....not sure I could tell the difference if only hearing it.
Lots of memories. I remember when the song was new. This young man brings a smile to me.
Now, THAT is rock n roll!!
Just another example of what's out there, unknown, while Selena Gomez is a millionaire.
Best comment EVER
queun lol true
HAL I ALSO USE THAT PICTURE AND YOU ARE RIGHT THAT GUY IS REAL GOOD
60sisthashit cuz Selena barely does anything anymore
I know. So much talent just on TH-cam and we get Beyonce or Eminem hot pants for the Super Bowl Halftime show?
I like his style, nicely played.
Mate ,a message from England , you are born to rock ! That was the bollox!👍😃✌️️🇺🇸🇬🇧
Love it ,I could listen to him play all day

You've been blessed. Thank you for sharing.
OMG... I love that crazy man, what style and talent

Old School supreme, I've been trying to play that for 60 years, you inspired to try again.
INCREDIBLE!!! Love this guy!!!! I want to play like that!
Great talent, love that some younger individuals know how to play good music and are taking the time to learn it,awesome job.
Too bad Jerry Lee hasn't commented. Awesome performance!
