I love how during the last repeat of the chorus the notes become softer, giving a more vulnerable tender feeling and bittersweet sendoff for the piece. I wish the album version approached it the same way. Wonderful.
Day after day, I must face a world of strangers Where I don't belong, I'm not that strong It's nice to know that there's someone I can turn to Who will always care, you're always there When there's no gettin' over that rainbow When my smallest of dreams won't come true I can take all the madness the world has to give But I won't last a day without you So many times when the city seems to be Without a friendly face, a lonely place It's nice to know that you'll be there if I need you And you'll always smile, it's all worthwhile When there's no gettin' over that rainbow When my smallest of dreams won't come true I can take all the madness the world has to give But I won't last a day without you Touch me and I end up singing Trouble seems to up and disappear You touch me with the love you're bringing I can't really lose when you're near When you're near, my love If all my friends have forgotten half their promises they're not unkind Just hard to find One look at you and I know That I couldn't learn to live without the rest I've found the best When there's no gettin' over that rainbow When my smallest of dreams won't come true I can take all the madness the world has to give But I won't last a day without you When there's no gettin' over that rainbow When my smallest of dreams won't come true I can take all the madness the world has to give But I won't last a day without you
I did say with your last Carpenters post that you can't go wrong with a Carpenters tune, well I have been sitting here for an hour and 20 minutes hitting the redial button on my phone trying to get through to the local pharmacy to order a whole list of medications (part of my job, the stuff is not for me), well I had been getting really irritated by this, I listened to your tune and de stressed and just after you finished, the phone was answered, and because I was more chilled I didn't bite the poor women's head off when she answered. So thanks for that.
Hey Neil! Just wondering if I could have permission to use this rendition for my Aunt’s funeral video. Thank you This is one of my favourite songs and probably such an amazing arrangement
Thanks for your excellent interpretations. I would like to ask if this and other songs, like 'We've only just begun', don't really pertain to MR PAUL WILLIAMS?

Aww, thank you so much. I tell people a lot - just 'feel' the music. I'm glad you enjoy the way I play it.
Miss you nanay!!! 🥺😭
I am so surprised not more people have viewed this video. This is a very good performance. His piano playing is like singing the song by the piano.
Thank you!
Very pretty ending
Excellent cover.
As I have scrolled through youtube looking for renditions of carpenter songs,yours is the best.
Thank you!
I SUPER LOVE IT, SIR NEIL! PLEASE MAKE MORE CARPENTERS PIANO COVER!
Best ever arrangement! my all time fav!. Good job Neil!
Thank you.
This is so beautiful. I wish I could learn it but I don't even have a piano keyboard hahahahaha
Haha. Time to buy one! Thank you.
I won't last a day without your piano Neil 😍😍😍
Beautiful! You have an orchestra at your fingertips!
Day after day, I must face a world of strangers
Where I don't belong, I'm not that strong
It's nice to know that there's someone I can turn to
Who will always care, you're always there
When there's no gettin' over that rainbow
When my smallest of dreams won't come true
I can take all the madness the world has to give
But I won't last a day without you
So many times when the city seems to be
Without a friendly face, a lonely place
It's nice to know that you'll be there if I need you
And you'll always smile, it's all worthwhile
When there's no gettin' over that rainbow
When my smallest of dreams won't come true
I can take all the madness the world has to give
But I won't last a day without you
Touch me and I end up singing
Trouble seems to up and disappear
You touch me with the love you're bringing
I can't really lose when you're near
When you're near, my love
If all my friends have forgotten half their promises they're not unkind
Just hard to find
One look at you and I know
That I couldn't learn to live without the rest
I've found the best
When there's no gettin' over that rainbow
When my smallest of dreams won't come true
I can take all the madness the world has to give
But I won't last a day without you
When there's no gettin' over that rainbow
When my smallest of dreams won't come true
I can take all the madness the world has to give
But I won't last a day without you

Yes you can. If there’s any issue with the funeral home, send me an email to archer.neil@yahoo.com

Você toca lindamente , parabéns
Thanks for your excellent interpretations. I would like to ask if this and other songs, like 'We've only just begun', don't really pertain to MR PAUL WILLIAMS?
Thank you! Yes, he wrote them. People search for The Carpenters.
Sold!
Excellent cover.. I would like to request a piano cover of the song entitled "Leaves" by Ben & Ben.
As usual amazing!!!! Have you thought of making them available to download?
Thank you! I’m working on it.
can i use this as a background music without any copyright? please?
Unfortunately no. It is a copyrighted song so it will always have copyright.
Sir, i have a favour ok with you if i use youre music to my cover. Your such a good pianist sir. And thats a good song😊😊
You’ll probably get it blocked I’m afraid. I’m glad you like it.
I wish i can play piano and play this song
Start to learn - piano is a great instrument
🥰
😌💛
Honestly no shade but you could have played it in the original key..
Fast hands :/

Won't last a day without you, without you
