Eh, missed one thing, I love Silvestri's OG version but this one is slower sounds like Forrest is actually feeling nostalgic rather than with Silvestri's, which just sounds like Forrest is remembering something he forgot.
After all these years, it still sounds as beautiful the day I heard it. As a kid, I disliked the movie, but after a while I began to realize that it really hit home.
I've just listened to a few of these renditions on TH-cam and while everyone I've listened to are amazing, I like this one the best. You don't rush it and play it with amazing feeling.
You have the most beautifully delicate playing style I've ever heard, giving us the true intended feeling of this score. Since first finding this video, I don't think a single day has gone by that hasn't found me stopping by to hear it again - which also led me to discovering your rendition of Passacaglia - Handel Halvorsen !!! Cannot say enough about the beauty of your rendition of that piece. Others I've heard play this come across too fast & choppy. Your's is so very inspiring. Thanks !!!
I made a video and photo sequence of my baby daughter growing up over the years with this song playing. It was many years ago I gave it as a gift to my wife for mother's day. She's been playing it every year and crying like a baby watching it ever since. (thank you for this wonderful rendition btw.)
wow, a very moving expression of music! Very touching, i felt im inside of it. That's the mark of a real musician... able to communicate and express what inside of him/her to the listener... able to bring his/her music in one's soul and heart. God bless!
Yep... Yours sir, is the best rendition I've seen and heard of this beautiful song... I've taken to make this a project and a quest to play this song, hopefully a little more than half as well as you, as long as it takes! Thank-you for the standard of excellence for which I can strive to emulate!!
I was already in college when i first saw the movie but that was 15 years back. I still had my dad then. This song alyways reminds me of my father and how kind he was.
greenroomgmail me too my mans comment above just really broke me up along with the song and quote from the movie "if there's anything you need I won't be far away"
Thank you so much for posting this video and the music sheets too. A good friend was able to play this beautiful piece on our wedding ceremony because of that :).
dragchute86 don't know why but remember this comment from 2 year ago, don't know why but listening to this its just proper broke me dwn I'm in a reyt knot.lol
Te felicito... es hermoso lo que haces. Me dan ganas de aprender a tocar el piano. Sos un verdadero artista ! Nunca dejes de crear, y segui subiendo videos aqui... asi nosotros seguimos disfrutando
Láska je trpělivá, je dobrotivá. Láska nezávidí, láska se nevychloubá ani nenadýmá, nechová se nepatřičně. Nehledá ve svůj prospěch a nedá se vydráždit. nemyslí na nic zlého. Neraduje se z nepravosti. Raduje se s pravdou. Všechno snáší, všemu věří, ve vše doufá a všechno vydrží.

Awesome.Thank you very much.It is really useful for me that I' m learning piano and recently figured out the melody on my own but I needed help with the arrangements.One million thanks fron Spain.😊❤👍🏻
One of the most beautiful movie themes of all times.
Composer is Alan Silvestri (not mentioned).
For my taste, this is the best version of this song; simple, and elegant. Well done! Thank you for posting this.
Agreed!
Eh, missed one thing, I love Silvestri's OG version but this one is slower sounds like Forrest is actually feeling nostalgic rather than with Silvestri's, which just sounds like Forrest is remembering something he forgot.
this tune is so lovely, it was played at my mum's funeral, and now it helps my baby nephew fall asleep...
You've no idea since how many years I'm coming back time and again to watch it! .... You're an angel man....A musical angel!....Namaste!
This made me Cry like baby 😭
this is so damn beautiful, hat's off to you my friend
Man I cried at the end of the film as I heard this song. You playing it made me cry again! SO beautifully played! :)
I'm crying right now...
How would it ever be possible to explain in words the beauty, the peace that music brings to ones soul
THanKYou for sharing your gift with us

As our children grow up and find this film with its eternal music so too will they find your wonderful rendition
You did a great job of replicating the structure, sound, emotion, and spirit of this beautiful theme.
thank you for playing sweet cool music.... it refreshes my soul.... i feel like im in peace.....
This is so beautiful, I feel like crying! Great job man!
First one I saw as a cover of the music, that kept the speed the same proper level. So many others would not keep the speed consistent, Thank you!
Some music can make you cry
this is the one for me. and also playing love by ennio morriconi
Absolutely perfect and captured feelings I can’t express through words. 😭
So talented!

Absolutely agree
Mesmerizing. This score moves me to tears.
This is an astonishingly amazing cover of this theme. I would give my goddamned left eye to be able to play this half as well as you can.
It drives me crazy... so soft cover piano. Love that so much!!

Life's like a box of chocolate. You never know what your gonna get. Thank you for the greatest movie theme song ever imo
Simply beautiful! I watched your performance more than once, because you nailed it almost to perfection. I enjoy listening to it. Great job!
Damn it! This bring back so much in my life that's sad, but I'm also happy I went through it. I miss you, Dad.
isso nao é uma musica composta, e sim inspirada por DEUS, a serenidade é tamanha que fechar os olhos vai em outra dimensao.... linda d+++
Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you'll find..

FANTASTIC!!!!!!! Perfect!!!! Really grateful for that.
This brings a tear to my eye.
You are one of my favorite pianists
Wow the YPG 235 my favorite keyboard. For a very inexpensive keyboard (by the way they don't make them anymore) you can create amazing music.
Life was like a box of chocolate 🍫
