Very great job! This is a TOUGH piece, massive respect for taking it on and playing it quite good! There were only a few parts where it sounded like you were having a hard time with it. So big props to you! I think you did the piece justice!
This is one of those few songs that has, for lack of a better comparison, "The face only a mother could love" but I think that it is absolute genius because I feel hate and fear when I listen to it, which is exactly what it was composed to do. Excellent cover of it, keep playing Kyle.
This cover has fueled my artistic inspiration and respect for dynamics for 10 years. Kyle Landry’s arrangements are so much fun to just sit back and soak in.
Epic. I was going to learn this song until I saw this, what you did with this is sick. I'll still learn it, just after I forget how much better your version is than the piano collections. Props brotha!
Mother of double-octave one-hand, that is really a overkill left hand. ALSO: Jarrod Radnich vs Kyle Landry: Who wins? Dislike for Radnich, like for Landry
absolutely beautiful. Ive barely begun to play piano and listening to you has only sparked my excitement in playing. I truly admire your playing if i may say. It wasnt till i began playing did i understand the difficulty of it and appreciate such playing as yours. Amazing
Seven years old and still the best piano cover of One Winged Angel on YT. You've set the bar so high that it would take a rocket-propelled Pogo Sick to clear it. Excellent performance! BRAVO!!
i just have to tell you that you are the reason I continue to play piano. you are my inspiration to keep going. just because, every single time i sit down to play, i think to myself, "I want to be like Kyle Landry".
everytime i watch i go over that descending 16ths passage in the bass to see how the hell you do it. still cant even compare!!! its insane something to be really proud of. one of your best uploads in my opinion
YOU, sir, are a god. I'm learning to play this (just started), and it's amazing pianists like yourself that inspire me. Don't ever squander your amazing skill... you play beautifully, and the emotion in your work is so admirable.
O-o This is just amazing. As a learning pianist myself, I can only imagine how much time you put into this. It sounds really great! God's given you an amazing talent, for sure!
Wow. You're a great pianist I have to say. And the changes made in the song are quite noticable. For example, if you listen to the real theme in the movie, the song doesn't slow down in the middle of sections. Also, it doesn't suddenly get softer. However, these changes did make the effects very drastic and dramatic. Your left hand at 1:21 was godly beyond imagination. I'm a huge fan. Nice Job!
Gold pants playing Final Fantasy VII song. Final fantasy VII has the "golden saucer". Saucers are 6 in dishes. There are "3" key scenes in FF7. 3 6 golden saucers =666! Illuminati confirmed.
Totally, amazing work. I can see sepheroth every time I hear this, and I must agree with ernsthamm. I got in a fight with my girlfriend and immediately stalked to the computer to look for one of your covers. Once again you've achieved perfection beyond earthly standards. Thank you.
i have to say, I'm amazed! not just by your talent, i was already expecting this to be the best one on youtube :) this has been posted for only two days and you already have over 300 comments and nearly 8 thousand views!! but i suppose this is normal for you, with your amazing skills :)
This video really got me into playing difficult video game music, and it's my favorite of yours. The one thing I still cannot get is your massive left hand run at 2:57. I don't understand how it's that fast
I said it before and I'll say it again. This video is the only way I'll listen to the piano collections version of One Winged Angel. Great job my friend.
I went on your channel so that I could listen to this song, but I ended up getting distracted by your other music! It ended up taking me like an hour to get to this song! :) But your music is awesome and I'm glad I took the long way here!!
Kyle, it seems that these people just can't accept your talent. And to prove them, the only thing I can come up with is putting like.. a digital clock or a timer on top of your piano to prove to them that it's not sped up. but you shouldn't have to resort to that just because a few people don't believe that you can play that fast. I, personally, would take it as a compliment haha. Good job man, keep up the good work.
holy moly.. what a thrill of a rollercoaster ride listening to this - im out of breath!.. that's INSANELY amazing talent! i normally prefer your mellow/sweet FF covers, but this one was so intense & technically rich.. and breathtaking (for lack of a better word!).. thanks for posting!
wow! i mean..really..words can't express how amazed i am. the way your fingers moved. you truly are a magnificent pianist! so far,the best cover of one winged i've ever seen. great job! seriously.....an amazing amazing amazing job!!!! (:
Fool, I already stated that I enjoy listening to this, and I'm grateful to Kyle for uploading it. Do not call me ignorant, I am entitled to an opinion and just because it isn't the same as yours does not make me wrong. I believe this was sped up, that's all I'm saying
After watching many one winged angel, i was awaiting one from you, and i was not disappointing, this is a very well played and all the comments asking if it was sped up are stupid because in other videos you still go as fast as this.
This is brilliant some parts are better than the original piano collections in my opinion but some other parts are played too fast to my liking ~~ You have truly achieved a professional level and I would love to see another attempt at tatakau monotachi (those who fight)! (It would probably take you a couple of hours to master...)
@0gami1tto is such a frikin troll. this is the BEST piano performance of one-winged angel i have ever witnessed and i am literally in awe right now. words cannot describe how gifted you are. Kyle Landry for president :D
This song is by far one of the hardest to play on piano and have it sound good, but you do a fair job at it. Kudos to you my friend for once again impressing me! ^u^
![[OJV] Final Fantasy VII - J-E-N-O-V-A & Sephiroth - Live Orchestra](/img/n.gif)
To this day, 9 years after, the best piano cover i’ve seen/listened
Ugh mood I love this cover it vibes so hard and it’s really nostalgic for me since the game holds such a big place in my heart
agree...after...12 years now...same...Kyle's talent is just unique
An EXTRA 5 years later and this is still the best cover
My guess is that the music sheet says
"Let your left hand be possessed" around 1:20
He gave his soul to the devil for those hands
Lol well said
I... think he actually gave it to Sephy
Nothing extraordinary
Lol
Only a boss can play a boss' theme.
ahhahahahahah
Nice xD
2013 comments hit different
Someone needs to do this on public piano, I'd love to see people's reactions to it.
Kanie Seiya Im trying to learn this piece and hopefully play this at a concert or in public XD
Helen Lan, I wish you best of luck learning the piece. Don't give up! ;)
Kanie Seiya Some guy did it in a church during service and he nailed it
"why do i hear boss music?"
@@hellz3759 Hey did you actually do it ?
This has been on youtube for 12 years and ive only found this now. Absolutley unreal!
I had no idea that this piece could be done with any less than a 4-part choir and a full orchestra! Your playing is absolutely BRILLIANT.
Now THIS is impressive!
Agreed
Very great job! This is a TOUGH piece, massive respect for taking it on and playing it quite good! There were only a few parts where it sounded like you were having a hard time with it. So big props to you! I think you did the piece justice!
that left hand is blessed
left hand performing an omnislash
1:20 most amazing left hand ever.
He doesn't put his mind to it at all.
He somehow channels Nobou Uematsu's.
This is one of those few songs that has, for lack of a better comparison, "The face only a mother could love" but I think that it is absolute genius because I feel hate and fear when I listen to it, which is exactly what it was composed to do. Excellent cover of it, keep playing Kyle.
The dynamics are insane. How the fuck does he do it? And the speed and clarity? Fucking lord Sephirtoth
This cover has fueled my artistic inspiration and respect for dynamics for 10 years. Kyle Landry’s arrangements are so much fun to just sit back and soak in.
13 years later, I still come back to watch this video ❤
Epic. I was going to learn this song until I saw this, what you did with this is sick. I'll still learn it, just after I forget how much better your version is than the piano collections. Props brotha!
It's 2020 and this is still the best piano version on TH-cam.
this is still the best piano on youtube lol
Mother of double-octave one-hand, that is really a overkill left hand.
ALSO: Jarrod Radnich vs Kyle Landry: Who wins? Dislike for Radnich, like for Landry
One Handed Angel
Sephiskill
absolutely beautiful. Ive barely begun to play piano and listening to you has only sparked my excitement in playing. I truly admire your playing if i may say. It wasnt till i began playing did i understand the difficulty of it and appreciate such playing as yours. Amazing
i've heard just a few of your things here and there. however, i just have to say with absolute honesty that you are an absolutely fantastic pianist.
This video is now 10 years old, still the BEST version played by anybody on youtube.
It's an amazing Sephiroth piano theme. And then his left hand decided to turn a piano into a one man metal band.
Seven years old and still the best piano cover of One Winged Angel on YT. You've set the bar so high that it would take a rocket-propelled Pogo Sick to clear it. Excellent performance! BRAVO!!
dat left hand at 1:21 tho holy crap!
Spenny Narwhale yeah...shit...
Maybe he is left handed, I guess...
I know I got chills that is some raw talent
"Let thy hand be possessed"
i just have to tell you that you are the reason I continue to play piano. you are my inspiration to keep going. just because, every single time i sit down to play, i think to myself, "I want to be like Kyle Landry".
The only angels here are those fingers!
everytime i watch i go over that descending 16ths passage in the bass to see how the hell you do it. still cant even compare!!! its insane something to be really proud of. one of your best uploads in my opinion
12 years and I’m still referencing this cover 😂💯
YOU, sir, are a god. I'm learning to play this (just started), and it's amazing pianists like yourself that inspire me. Don't ever squander your amazing skill... you play beautifully, and the emotion in your work is so admirable.
1:20 - like the ravenous hand (left) from the Adams family having an episode.
This is absolutely amazing. I love the different dynamics. They way you modified it makes it sound as if it should be that way. Bravo!
O-o This is just amazing. As a learning pianist myself, I can only imagine how much time you put into this. It sounds really great! God's given you an amazing talent, for sure!
years later and I still come back to this video. so brilliant to listen to this again kyle.
Played like a boss.
agreed
Hands down the best performance of one winged angel! Kyle is hands down the greatest pianist ive ever seen omg
I'd pay my first born child to be able to play this. Plus the wife.
Doesn't the wife bring down the value lol? I know that mine would.
Nate Manchuck I bet you'd automatically assume the child is male, then
Thankfully he said pay...not sell...
Granteeeed !!!
Lol hahaha
Still such a sick cover after all these years! I'm glad your videos are still available
Wow, his hands moved fast. Like when he played staccato he needed to quickly move his hands onto the keys but then quickly jump to the next note.
Wow. You're a great pianist I have to say. And the changes made in the song are quite noticable. For example, if you listen to the real theme in the movie, the song doesn't slow down in the middle of sections. Also, it doesn't suddenly get softer. However, these changes did make the effects very drastic and dramatic.
Your left hand at 1:21 was godly beyond imagination.
I'm a huge fan. Nice Job!
THAT WAS INTENSE!
ofc it's kyle...dude you are one of if not the best pianist for japanese compositions on youtube...my personal favorite for any composition
FUCK! Best version I've seen on YT (and I've seen them all.) Jesus.
11 years later still a banger. still impressive. 2013 was a good year.
1:06 "oh cool, it the main theme"
1:20 "oh cool, it's- WHAT THE F*!?!"
Although dancing mad is still
My favourite theme song from this franchise the way kyle plays this is simply stunning
Bravo 👏
I can play up to 58 seconds of this song then i stopped and thought lets move on to a different song
This is definitely the best piano performance of this tune I've heard. Great work!!!
Has this arrangement been transcribed at all? I need to have the sheet music!
I have heard some great pianists play, but you just raised the bar. I tell everyone I know, you have got to here this guy!
Youre great but dont ever wear those gold pants again.
+The Great Hadoken They are silver basketball shorts. I'll wear what I want. :)
I see that ninja edit. Still, it's much appreciated. 😝
Another ninja edit. Needs more piano.
Sorry sir.
Gold pants playing Final Fantasy VII song. Final fantasy VII has the "golden saucer". Saucers are 6 in dishes. There are "3" key scenes in FF7. 3 6 golden saucers =666!

He isn't the one who we know....HE IS SEPHIROTH ITSELF
masterful, with all the covers ive heard i cant believe im hearing this one for the first time 13 years after it was made
OH.MY.GAWD
Hiiiii Anna . How r u
i have to say, I'm amazed! not just by your talent, i was already expecting this to be the best one on youtube :) this has been posted for only two days and you already have over 300 comments and nearly 8 thousand views!! but i suppose this is normal for you, with your amazing skills :)
3:03 Bruh how do I that
Good God! I can't even begin to describe how awesome the ending was!
Wow your fingers move all over the place i dont know how you do it!
Notes baba notes!
Ahhh.. and again I can add another 4 minutes and 19 more seconds of pure fucking AWESOME to my day. Thanks Kyle Landry, for being epic.
This is fucking insane. I'll never be able to learn this LOLOLLL
+Cheyenne Thoms not with that attitude
+Archibald McGlasson I'm like, waaay below amateur level, so yeah I don't think so LOLOLLL
+Cheyenne Thoms muted
+Archibald McGlasson huh?
im jk. I believe!
This video really got me into playing difficult video game music, and it's my favorite of yours. The one thing I still cannot get is your massive left hand run at 2:57. I don't understand how it's that fast
Yo Kyle that would be good if u could re-do this cover, cause it's honestly far from perfect. You can do better now i'm sure of this.
utterly amazing my favorite song on piano being played by my favorite pianist on youtube wow made my day
If only he did Cohen's Masterpiece..
Ridiculously awesome added power and contrasts!
Why can I no longer down vote comments, reply to comments, or anything else? Screw the new TH-cam!
Are u playing this or is it a video on TH-cam u uploaded
..... It sounds AMAZING
Sorry Kevin I'm stupid that's not u
Alexa Hawkins lol It's fine. But I can play that song.
U should record ur self and put it on here
Alexa Hawkins Don't have the equipment.
I said it before and I'll say it again. This video is the only way I'll listen to the piano collections version of One Winged Angel. Great job my friend.
Ur pants are shiny.
It's like...whenever you upload a video, it's always instantly the BEST version. :)
god bless autism
+MountainMonths lol
+MountainMonths I'm sick of people who keep throwing around autism with vayring negative connotaions and i say this in the most respectful way: STFU
b-but oni-chaaan i was only kidding! s-sowwy ._.
gibe da cansur pls
looks like someone got the butthurt disease.
if you are talking about me ichida, shut up
again, just wow. Have been watching this for years. still impressed.
I went on your channel so that I could listen to this song, but I ended up getting distracted by your other music! It ended up taking me like an hour to get to this song! :) But your music is awesome and I'm glad I took the long way here!!
goosebumps and shivers all over... amazing performance kyle, yet again!
after watching several of ur vids I think ill take a look at the website. Looks like it will be well worth my time. Good work
One of the biggest displays of raw talent on youtube imo. Left hand at 1:20? My hand may not even move that fast, let alone in such a precise pattern.
Kyle, it seems that these people just can't accept your talent. And to prove them, the only thing I can come up with is putting like.. a digital clock or a timer on top of your piano to prove to them that it's not sped up. but you shouldn't have to resort to that just because a few people don't believe that you can play that fast. I, personally, would take it as a compliment haha. Good job man, keep up the good work.
This is INCREDIBLE! Sephiroth is my all-time favorite video game villain. you do the song complete justice :)
holy moly.. what a thrill of a rollercoaster ride listening to this - im out of breath!.. that's INSANELY amazing talent!
i normally prefer your mellow/sweet FF covers, but this one was so intense & technically rich.. and breathtaking (for lack of a better word!).. thanks for posting!
omg epic best ive seen so far sephiroth is truly in you man i worship ur piano skills
so glad you waited to perfect it- just spectacular.
No words to discribe how magnificent is this video. You are a truly piano master!
my jaw dropped from the very beginning of the movie, and i still can't shut my mouth.
love love love it.
wow! i mean..really..words can't express how amazed i am. the way your fingers moved. you truly are a magnificent pianist! so far,the best cover of one winged i've ever seen. great job! seriously.....an amazing amazing amazing job!!!! (:
Fool, I already stated that I enjoy listening to this, and I'm grateful to Kyle for uploading it. Do not call me ignorant, I am entitled to an opinion and just because it isn't the same as yours does not make me wrong.
I believe this was sped up, that's all I'm saying
I'm seriously lost for words to compliment you. Every video I think you're amazing but this is just mind blowing! Incredible performance yet again.
SE-PHI-ROTH!! haha dude, amazing job!! the left hand action at 1:21 is off the goddamn charts. keep it up!
even learning the part form 1:08 to 1:19 would be good enough for me, but you learned the whole song so well! I'm really jealous of you
Elegantly played. Great attention to dynamics
After watching many one winged angel, i was awaiting one from you, and i was not disappointing, this is a very well played and all the comments asking if it was sped up are stupid because in other videos you still go as fast as this.
You are my inspiration for ever playing the piano. Thank you.
This is possibibly the best version I ever heard! Good work!
dude... this is awesome on like... 12 different levels of awesomeness
This is brilliant some parts are better than the original piano collections in my opinion but some other parts are played too fast to my liking ~~ You have truly achieved a professional level and I would love to see another attempt at tatakau monotachi (those who fight)! (It would probably take you a couple of hours to master...)
@0gami1tto is such a frikin troll. this is the BEST piano performance of one-winged angel i have ever witnessed and i am literally in awe right now. words cannot describe how gifted you are. Kyle Landry for president :D
WOW!!! I'm impressed!!! Your version of Sephiroth's theme song is amazing! Daunting still. Incredibly well played your improvs were really good. ^^
This song is by far one of the hardest to play on piano and have it sound good, but you do a fair job at it. Kudos to you my friend for once again impressing me! ^u^
I can just picture Cloud and Sephiroth fighting at a fancy dinner party with this song playing everytime I heard it! Great Job!
