Finished this for the first time yesterday. Amazing game. Beautiful soundtrack. In Normand's memory I'll learn this on piano myself - he did the game such poetically desolate justice.
"You know, Shaun, things gonna happens even we don't want them so" "Are you ready to sacrifice to save your son?" "You know, Dad? What happened to Jason, it wasn't your fault" "I think my other self is testing me, testing my love for Shaun" "An Origami was placed on the victim's hand" "Finally a father who is capable for his own son..."
When ever rains i always like to listen to this song its so beautiful but always gets me sad because i remember the first time i played the game i wish i could play it for the first time again without knowing anything
I've never even played the game, but now this is one of my favorite songs. Brilliantly played. Thanks so much! Aaaand, RIP Normand Corbeil ;(. It's too bad he won't be making any more awesome soundtracks.
Amazing...I have just finished learning Painful Memories and it makes me emotional everytime I play it. Such a sad beautiful song for such a deeply emotional game as Heavy Rain.

As someone already mentioned in the comments, I also listened to this for years. It's something I always find myself go back to. And after all these years that I listened to this, you at least need to hear my thanks. Cause you really earned it. I also love how the thunder kicks in at 4:15. Everything you did is just perfect. This is a 10 out of 10 recreation of all these beautiful tracks Heavy Rain comes with. Thank you so so much man. Thank you. For real.
Hey there, thank you so much for what you said! It always astounds me when I hear from people like yourself who tell me they've been watching a particular video for years, it is really flattering. And thanks for pointing out the thunder clap, that was very precisely placed exactly there and I'm glad you noticed. :) Thank you again for your comment. Be well and best wishes, Alex

@@acuity1980 The thunder clap is my most favourite part of this nearly 8-minute masterpiece of yours. Thank you for responding and I hope that you can achieve your goals in life and that you are as happy as possible. Stay safe out there! :)
I just can't believe he just gone... these pianos will make us remember him. great composer, great person, thanks for all your music and your work, you will be remembered as one of the best man in the world of arts... R.I.P
@acuity1980 The sound of your piano is really amazing! This is really a stunning piece. I never heard of Normand Corbeil :S But he seems to be an excellent composer =D I also like the rain and the background you use in your video! I am glad you honor the great Captnflav for his great work too ^_^
I love that sound, the first time I heard, I almost cried because it complements the emotion of the game, you played beautifully, my congratulations, keep it up!
Es ist jedesmal ein Gefühlskarussel wenn man es sich anhört.. Ich glaube es gibt niemanden hier auf TH-cam der mit solch echtem Gefühl spielt wie du! Danke dafür. .
Quite belated comment on my side, but I think it is a very nicely played Heavy Rain medley. I'm impressed. This game is really close to my heart (along with the Dreamfall) and was really nice to hear it again. Very nice work, mate!
I always get this ball in my throat when i listen to the music because im so attached to the characters emotionally that its hard to finish the game because i dont want it to end. Thank you for bringing back my favourite memories of the best game ever IMO!
I cried many tears. Each key you played was beautiful. Thank you for making such an amazing piece of heavenly music. The rain made me feel like I was outside. Thank you for making real, beautifully sad music. Thank you
The addition of the pictures and the rain effect only add to your flawless playing. Just wanted to say thank you on behalf of everyone for putting in the effort so we can all enjoy this amazing medley :)
I love it ! Made me realise that the piano to the love scene wasn't in the actual soundtrack as well, it's a beautiful piece of piano without Madison's heavy breathing over the top of it lol Loved the thunder effects as well, blended in really well
This must be a very popular game...your views and comments here are off the charts - no less a nod to your venerated stature as a pianist. :) It's a very interesting piece...the rain and storm in the background give it such an ominous feel. I'm not familiar with this game, but it sounds indeed dark and sinister. Excellent performance, Alex...it's flawless!
That was beautiful! You're obviously very skilled at playing piano. I really enjoyed listening to this, usually I don't have the patience to listen to a whole piano song, but with this video I could listen to the whole thing without feeling slightly bored for even one second. Very well played. :)
Absolutely beautiful, thankyou for this. the performance is perfect and I come back to listen to this regularly. one of the most relaxing things for me.
EPIC!! This is truly my favorite video of yours!!! What a great performance! This cannot be better performed!! You know I finished this game yesterday (with the move) and I really liked it a LOT!! But I was a bit frustrated that I finished it. It is such a great story, but it feels very short :S Once again GREAT performance! I just cannot get enough of this one =D
My most favorite video of the last time! Simply love this! I listen a lot to this on my ipod. Especially when it rains :-) Also the score is amazing! Thanks for upload this and sending me the MP3! Highly appreciated!
I know you probably don't read the comments anymore, but I wanted to say that I've been listening to this for YEARS, and just might be my favorite piece of music ever. Thanks for posting
Credit to you, Sir. You express how you feel to this powerful song. Not many people do this over the internet. It truly is something else thing song. It's purely beautiful.
Wow Alex, that was great! The sound of rain in the background is very fitting (it's from Heavy Rain after all) and your use of the occasional thunder did not come across as gimmicky. Very well done! Watching videos like this reminds me how much I wanted to play a musical instrument. I used to take piano lessons when I was a kid, but my piano teacher used to slap my hands when I did something wrong. We all know that kind of approach never works. LOL Anyway, I digress. Keep up the great work!
using the rain & thunder really adds that special something to it that made the game so great, nice job man, I sometimes wish I could play piano for some of the slower game soundtracks, but I'm more of a Bass Guitar/Heavy Metal kinda guy never the less, great job man, really enjoyed it
amazing... i need to learn this, played about 80 hours of heavy rain... cried at the end.. this brings back those emotions i have felt experiencing the epic storyline... listening to this makes me wanna play it again... so good... such a well played song... thank god someone can play this beautifully. i'm very impressed.. sounds just like the game.. to the T
Wonderful! I just finished the game and you captured its essence in a perfect way. Heavy rain would never had been that good without this music. Congratulations on the performance! And thanks for the sheets!
Absolutely stunning. You even nail how much pressure you place on each note, soft and hard alike. At some instances i couldnt even tell if it was actually from the game or not. Keep up the good work!
I normally watch when I see your vids (both of you) in the subbox... no prob... listening to it for the second time... probably a third time afterwards... it kind of helps me right now... so good job on posting it right now!
There's no need to argue, you're the best with this cover by far. I was blown away, sooo amazing, really. And the rain added to it perfectly suited too... What else can I say ? Thanks for the MP3, and you've got one more subscriber !
I Love this!! It's so amazing! I feel like I'm standing outside in the rain and my life is turning itself around inside my head! THANKS for the upload!
Wow this is great... it captures all the emotion from Heavy Rain and brings in so much more. You are extremely talented, this should have been used in Heavy Rain, no doubts about it. You are AWESOME! :)
this is beautiful! you played it soooooo well! and the pictures and the rain! I barely even know the story line to heavy rain and it still almost made me cry! wow your great at playing this a it's a great video!
I can't stop watching and listening to this music video, I wanna learn how to play it, THIS IS THE BEST SONG EVER AND YOU PLAY IT VERY WELL especially the rain sound is catching up great
Wow...just, wow. It's like I'm listening to the game's actual soundtrack, only better. You're an amazing pianist. Such an amazing score to a truly amazing game. I wish I had your talent. Bravo, and thank you so much.
Hey Acuity, I just came a big fan of yours when I saw you play on Alyssa Marie's channel. I love your work dude :) Keep it up! Thanks for doing Heavy Rain :)
wow this really is ur longest song...BUT i never got tired of it! AMAZING! all the way to the end and yes playing long songs r quite annoying for a resital once i had to play and 11 page song:) it was really nerve racking:)
AWESOME!! Is this game something like Silent Hill? Great music and your performance is awesome! And yes Captnflav is an amazing transcriber I am happy to see you mentioned him =D Cheers!!
I really falling in love on this piece!! It is really beautifull! Yesterday I started to play this game. And this genre is really my cup of tea =D Great story and (sorry to use the word again :P) atmosphere =D I can't wait to finish this game. When I have vacation with christmass I will finish this game.
I know i've already commented on this vid telling u ur awesome, But i have to do it again now. U really are very good at this i've looked at other videos and there not nearly as good. this one takes the cake. You sir are amazing :3.
@acuity1980 Yeah! Indeed I keep coming back! Last Sunday I printed the sheets out. I just needed to play this wonderfull theme on the piano! Especially the Painfull memories is amazing! Normand Corbeil did an excellent job! I never heard about him. I need to know more about him =D And thanks for the MP3! I just added it to my soundtrack of Heavy Rain =D
@acuity1980 How couldn't I? I listened to it and I couldn't tell the difference between the original soundtracks and your playing. Very well done! I love the sad feelings the "Heavy Rain" soundtracks bring.
I cannot get enough of this one Alex ;) Just amazing a perfect video. Also the lighting effects are great combined with the pictures! One of the best videos on YT mate! Can you please send me the MP3 of this suite? That would be great!
I haven't played the game, so I'm obviously not familiar with the story or this piece, but I think it's amazing, the emotion you put into it... And I don't think I could play for this long without messing up badly, haha. Even when playing something short I'm afraid (while I'm playing it) I'm going to mess up at the end, haha. One of the best pianists I've seen here, definitely. :)
one of the most beautiful soundtracks of all time
You have right
0:00 2:05 4:00
Amazing and beautiful
Finished this for the first time yesterday.
Amazing game. Beautiful soundtrack.
In Normand's memory I'll learn this on piano myself - he did the game such poetically desolate justice.
Haha is that a family guy quote? xD
"You know, Shaun, things gonna happens even we don't want them so"
"Are you ready to sacrifice to save your son?"
"You know, Dad? What happened to Jason, it wasn't your fault"
"I think my other self is testing me, testing my love for Shaun"
"An Origami was placed on the victim's hand"
"Finally a father who is capable for his own son..."
When ever rains i always like to listen to this song its so beautiful but always gets me sad because i remember the first time i played the game i wish i could play it for the first time again without knowing anything
@Connor RK900 Makes me happy that I'm not the only one either
The mix of the piano and the rain ♥.♥ Just sounds so beautiful
Nana Campbell Thanks!
Nana Campbellc ikr
Rest in Peace Normand Corbeil we will miss you
SSHHHHHHHAAAAAAUUUUUUUNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
JAAAAAAAASSSSSOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONNNN
BIIILLLLBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
CAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRLLLLLLLLLLL
NEVER GONNA GIVE YOU UP!
RICK ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLL!!!!
SSSSSSPPOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOCK!!!!
R.I.P. Normand Corbeil. He was a genius...
I wouldn't be able to finish the game. I cried at Merlin's death. He's a bird with 5 seconds of screen time!
Even though I finished the game (and platinumed it) - I can understand you!
Since when did cats sympathise about dead birds?
majinhiei7 The poor thing didn't even get to feed anyone. All the starving kittens and it just sits there.
One of the most important songs I've ever heard. Perfect for the plot of Heavy Rain. R.I.P Normand Corbeil, his work was exemplary.
this game is probably the reason WHY i bought a ps3.... you are pretty good seriously ^^
Oh shut up! PRETTY good?!
Oh shut up! PRETTY good?!I think you misspelled perfect... :D
I've never even played the game, but now this is one of my favorite songs. Brilliantly played. Thanks so much!
Aaaand, RIP Normand Corbeil ;(. It's too bad he won't be making any more awesome soundtracks.
This is truly amazing! I love this music, video game and performance! Excellent work Alex. The atmosphere with the thunder and rain is wonderful!
this song really help with the bad days
and seeing as everyday is pretty much bad, this really helps
Thanks for playing it man
I appreciate it
Amazing...I have just finished learning Painful Memories and it makes me emotional everytime I play it.
Such a sad beautiful song for such a deeply emotional game as Heavy Rain.

I'm still watching this allmost every day. You really made much people cry with this piece. You just can feel the emotion and passion. It's beautifull
I love that sound, the first time I heard, I almost cried because it complements the emotion of the game, you played beautifully, my congratulations, keep it up!
Arguably the best game ever made....
Es ist jedesmal ein Gefühlskarussel wenn man es sich anhört..

Danke dafür. .

It's such a good thing really nobody comments spoilers about this game on youtube, it's like we are a community. Good job.
I always get this ball in my throat when i listen to the music
because im so attached to the characters emotionally that its hard to finish the game because i dont want it to end.
Thank you for bringing back my favourite memories of the best game ever IMO!

The Love Scene song is very hard for me to play but you played it perfectly. Awesome work !
Le rendu est parfait, dès que je t'écoute jouer l'émotion monte en moi et je pense à ce jeu qui est tout simplement grandiose !!
Every Quantic Dream soundtrack has made me cry. Great music tied to a great story.
슬픈 노래, 훌륭한 표현, thanks for the playing. so amazing.
amazing... i need to learn this, played about 80 hours of heavy rain... cried at the end.. this brings back those emotions i have felt experiencing the epic storyline... listening to this makes me wanna play it again... so good... such a well played song... thank god someone can play this beautifully. i'm very impressed.. sounds just like the game.. to the T
By far the best pianist I've seen on TH-cam
Wonderful! I just finished the game and you captured its essence in a perfect way. Heavy rain would never had been that good without this music. Congratulations on the performance! And thanks for the sheets!
I was listening to the music when it started to rain a bit. Now i can feel the smell of the rain while listening. Amazing.
They need to make more games like this. Really love the whole investigation and mystery genre.
I won't lie, I wasn't even looking at the video at first, but then I noticed that this is a cover and wow... excellent job! flawless! :D
Absolutely stunning. You even nail how much pressure you place on each note, soft and hard alike. At some instances i couldnt even tell if it was actually from the game or not. Keep up the good work!
So beautiful... The rain in the background adds so much more effect, I cried. Thank you for such a good video, subscribed.

Hey Acuity,
I just came a big fan of yours when I saw you play on Alyssa Marie's channel. I love your work dude :) Keep it up! Thanks for doing Heavy Rain :)
The first chords of the video - the Prologue- are the saddest chords I've ever seen... Amazing! *___*
Very well done! I totally loved this game and just happened to stumble on your video here. That was gorgeous!
wow this really is ur longest song...BUT i never got tired of it! AMAZING! all the way to the end
and yes playing long songs r quite annoying
for a resital once i had to play and 11 page song:) it was really nerve racking:)
This is so outstanding beautiful, goosebumps are everywhere!
R.I.P. Normand~
AWESOME!! Is this game something like Silent Hill? Great music and your performance is awesome! And yes Captnflav is an amazing transcriber I am happy to see you mentioned him =D Cheers!!

Супер,посторался!!Лайк безоговорочно

One of the game that touched my heart so badly
Excellent! Very, very fluid and good fade visuals!
@acuity1980 Yeah! Indeed I keep coming back! Last Sunday I printed the sheets out. I just needed to play this wonderfull theme on the piano! Especially the Painfull memories is amazing! Normand Corbeil did an excellent job! I never heard about him. I need to know more about him =D And thanks for the MP3! I just added it to my soundtrack of Heavy Rain =D
@acuity1980 How couldn't I? I listened to it and I couldn't tell the difference between the original soundtracks and your playing. Very well done! I love the sad feelings the "Heavy Rain" soundtracks bring.
I cannot get enough of this one Alex ;) Just amazing a perfect video. Also the lighting effects are great combined with the pictures! One of the best videos on YT mate! Can you please send me the MP3 of this suite? That would be great!
Where did you get the rain and thunder effects? They compliment the piece beautifully.
I haven't played the game, so I'm obviously not familiar with the story or this piece, but I think it's amazing, the emotion you put into it... And I don't think I could play for this long without messing up badly, haha. Even when playing something short I'm afraid (while I'm playing it) I'm going to mess up at the end, haha.

tout simplement magnifique ! je revois chaque scènes marquantes du jeu en t'écoutant jouer.... merci.
