Kyle, I love your work so much and am a big admirer. Hopefully one day I'll be able to play even a fraction like you. I just wandered if you had ever thought about playing my favourite disney song which is also from Pocahontas: "If I never knew you". It's a beautiful song. Hopefully I'll be able to see you making music for years to come.
i've watched tons. and i mean, tons of piano covers all over youtube. but i've never seen someone put so much emotion in their piano covers as much as you do. thank you. these covers moved me. you're a wonderful pianist.
As a fellow pianist I feel the need to read the sheet music when I listen to piano piece, but when I heard this song I had to close my eyes and listen. So beautiful and truly moving. Your playing inspires me everyday and I know you'll go far with your skills. And maybe it's because its late and I'm tired, but I have tears in my eyes.
Those arpeggios at 1:23, 2:43, 3:17 are hands down the cleanest arpeggios I've ever seen. Even when I watch professional pianists try to play arpeggios that fast they can't seem to make them as smooth and consistent as Kyle does. Look at his fingers when he does them! They're just effortlessly rolling across the keys while still creating the most perfectly consistent sounds! Unbelievable. Kyle kudos to you my friend.
every time my whole family gets together my cousin plays this on piano and his sister sings along and i swear its the most beautiful thing, this song means so much to so many people and i can see why, its so full of emotion and passion and really just makes you grateful for everything you have.
I have listened to this so many times since he posted it to youtube. Four years later, I am still in awe at how beautiful his rendition is. Wow. I am just speechless everytime.
You deserve so many more subscribers. Giving us great content consistently without drama, clickbait, or annoying commentary. This is the kind of content I want to be topping the TH-cam trending charts.
Great cover, this is how it should be played plenty of light and shade, Lots of people who play this haven't a clue about playing with emotion well done.
Just to add to the thousands of compliments below: you play beautifully!!!!!! The emotions you stir up with the pieces you interpret can't be stirred by many. Thank you for sharing your talent
I closed my eyes... and this brings back so many Thoughts of my Childhood, while I listen to this. And now I am sitting here, just smiling. Thank you. ;)
This was the first song I ever heard kyle play, and from then on my ears have opened to a whole new world of music - which is the world of Kyle Landry! I can't thank you enough for your beautiful talent!! I wish to meet you one day ! x
A song is just a song, until you make it your own. Music is what you make it to be, and you just turned it into a beautiful masterpiece...I got goosebumps and chills down my back. Thanks for sharing your passion and emotion through your playing!!
I'm OBSESSED with Disney piano covers, and do a number of them myself. Something about my childhood mixed with my favorite instrument. But this is unquestionably the most moving one I've ever heard. I don't even think I'll ever attempt to cover Colors of the Wind simply because I couldn't reach this height. Holy cow what a piece...
Sitting here drunk, listening to you play this instrument moves me from the core of my soul. This music you play sounds so beautiful and it very much makes me grateful to exist.
My granddaughter Majai randomly started this video while I was working on intitives for Alaska Villages Food Security. A deep feeling of inspiration and joy filled my heart. Bless you for your spirit and love that connects our hearts with our planet :)
Its always good to remember that the composers should also be given our praise, they the ones who create these wonderful pieces of music, musicians are just the medium through which these creations are expressed and displayed, however great musicians such as Kyle will always respect this fact and play with all the love that these works deserve :D
Your piano talent makes me cry tears of happiness (not kidding, sitting here crying watching this :) ) and this is one of my favorite songs. i would watch Pocahontas everyday when i came back from school and sing along. thanks for brining back all those good memories :)
I downloaded this song from your Homepage and wanted to learn it with my teacher. I showed her the sheets and she said "no that's much to hard.I'll play it first and then I show you" I'm very happy, to learn this version :) It's sooooo beautiful! Thank you very very veeery much :D
Amazing!!! Your staccato 'come run the hidden pine trails of the forest' emphasis is particularly appreciated! You are SOOOO gifted!!! Every interpretation I hear of yours is exactly how I've always imagined pieces SHOULD be played! You're a veritable one-man-orchestra!
You sincerely are my inspiration and the reason why I keep on trying to get better at playing the piano eventhough I stopped taking piano lessons. I wosh I could play half as good as you do. Please never stop doing this and sharing your music with us.
A really nice arrangement from the song... it just catches the spirit of it and let it flow among the towering trees and the clear streams... I really enjoyed myself listening to this the first time... and all the others.
i remember when kyle landry sheet music used to be free! glad i have all of those. these arrangements are so good. i think this was kyle landry's peak days
i can not even begin to describe how much i love your cover. it touches me on a personal level. its beyond beautiful!!!! i could listen to you play all day long and never get tired of it! never stop playing!! you inspire me beyond comprehension!!! thank you!
First discovered you and this song like three years ago and absolutely fell in love. Just revisited this tonight and it makes me so emotional. Your arrangement of I can go the distance was one of my first pieces I learned and loved. ❤️
It took my 7 months to learn this piece and master it out. It was a wonderfull journey. Never have I ever been so passionate during learning piano piece, that i was with this masterpiece.
Hi Kyle Landry, I heard this arrangement (a year ago) along with the Zelda medley and other anime and video game soundtrack arrangements and was inspired by your talent! I am quite the nerd which is why I enjoy listening to your video game soundtrack arrangements. At the time I was only a grade 4 and was very unexperienced pianist but because you inspired me so much I took it upon myself to learn this piece. It took a while but I am so happy that I learnt it as I have become a lot more skilled and just did my grade 5 (theory holding me back). I performed it twice. Once last year and once recently along with my other grade pieces. On the recent concert the sound quality is terrible. However it would mean the world to me if you took the time to look at the performances on my piano and tell me what you think as I strive to become a better Pianist like you. Many thanks for the Wake up call and inspiration, PrincessofRPGs
I'm so moved by this. You are truly a wonderful pianist and a magician with the way you express the emotions with in the music. I can't thank you enough for sharing your beautiful talent. I only dream I could have such a sweet relief of lifes problems by being able to play an instrument so gracefully as you do. It must being you so much joy. This video has helped me through some of my darkest moments. As mad as that sounds. So thank you x
How do you arrange something like this from basic sheet music Kyle? Is it all music theory or does it just come to you naturally? I've tried arranging stuff but all I wind up doing is repeating arpeggios in the left hand and then playing the melody in the right with not much variation.
I would guess that music theory combined with lots of experience is the key thing when it comes to advanced arrangements like this. Sometimes it just fits to play the melody with sixth or third intervals and sometimes it just fits depending on how the chords progress to play extra notes in the bass to bind the chords. I might be talking some rubish here since my music theory isnt my strong side, and you have probably learned a lot since you posted that question
But how you play it ? Are you learned first original, and gradually adding ornaments, and after couple days you can play it like on the video. Or you do it spontaneously during reading sheets ??
I just want to say thank you, I had your music playlist running while I did most of my projects/studying this semester, so I (and my parents) would like to thank you for your hand in my good grades. cheers
Would you look at that, the sheet music has finally been PERFECTED! Get your copy today :). mnot.es/2A1zmhn
Kyle, I love your work so much and am a big admirer. Hopefully one day I'll be able to play even a fraction like you. I just wandered if you had ever thought about playing my favourite disney song which is also from Pocahontas: "If I never knew you". It's a beautiful song. Hopefully I'll be able to see you making music for years to come.
This came out so beautifully!!! I would love to hear a cover from you of "farewell" its the last song that plays in pocahontas!!! Youd kill it!!
kylelandry I
This is amazing! So talented
Never has anyone taken such a beautiful sheet all over my heart. I may be late to this party but this piece was both informative and inspiring.
bro 13 years later and I still come back to this every so often. It renders me speechless. This arrangement is Disney's Liszt
same!!!
This arrangement still blows my mind to this day.
Aw, thanks!
and mine to 2018
Always
what blows my mind is that every single cover of his blows my mind
watched this many times blows my mind 2021 :D
i've watched tons. and i mean, tons of piano covers all over youtube. but i've never seen someone put so much emotion in their piano covers as much as you do. thank you. these covers moved me. you're a wonderful pianist.
That is why I love Kyle Landry
Dhal see also, Joel Sandberg, Miri Lee
Tbh, Theishter does also (not advertising him or anything)
Absolutely. I was looking for covers of this and all of the others I was like-mehhh, so bland and lifeless. Kyle puts his soul into each piece
And he’s string in an office chair!!!
I love how he's chilling wearing Hawaiian shorts yet flawlessly executing one of the best Disney songs on the piano. Mad props
God damn, the way you played that literally got me tearing up. This song is so emotional and you nailed those highs and lows perfectly!!
As a fellow pianist I feel the need to read the sheet music when I listen to piano piece, but when I heard this song I had to close my eyes and listen. So beautiful and truly moving. Your playing inspires me everyday and I know you'll go far with your skills. And maybe it's because its late and I'm tired, but I have tears in my eyes.

They're just effortlessly rolling across the keys while still creating the most perfectly consistent sounds! Unbelievable. Kyle kudos to you my friend.
Decade later and this still gives me chills. Started playing piano bc of you.
Wow! Chopin meets Alan Menken!
Absolutely stunning!
haha, you figured out my secret. I'm a huge Chopin Fanboy :)
True, but don't discount the Rachmaninoff preludes!
Sir Vincent Heh- I never learned them!
where is the similarity to chopin?
@@EricLeePiano Same thoughts here. IMHO this cover sounds more like Rachmaninoff than Chopin. Still a marvelous cover tho 👌👌
life goal: learn to play this.
***** m2 :D :D haha
***** that's really amazing tho, keep going! :D
Ty :) I will!!
it's my goal too :) ha ha so I hope you soon will be able to play this :)
***** how long are you playing piano? I would like to know my chances to play this.
every time my whole family gets together my cousin plays this on piano and his sister sings along and i swear its the most beautiful thing, this song means so much to so many people and i can see why, its so full of emotion and passion and really just makes you grateful for everything you have.
I can never stop listening to this. It's perfection. Everyone deserves to hear it.
I have listened to this so many times since he posted it to youtube. Four years later, I am still in awe at how beautiful his rendition is. Wow. I am just speechless everytime.
I've watched this like a million times. I always come back to it. It's the most beautiful piano cover.
You deserve so many more subscribers. Giving us great content consistently without drama, clickbait, or annoying commentary. This is the kind of content I want to be topping the TH-cam trending charts.
I cant believe this song isn’t on the top hits of Disney. This song is absolutely beautiful!
Your covers are absolutely insane. I can't fathom how you manage to transform all these pieces into incredibly moving, beautiful pieces.
Keep coming back to this masterpiece
Your performance is indescribable. Literally, the beauty expressed through your playing cannot be put into words.
Great cover, this is how it should be played plenty of light and shade, Lots of people who play this haven't a clue about playing with emotion well done.
Just to add to the thousands of compliments below: you play beautifully!!!!!! The emotions you stir up with the pieces you interpret can't be stirred by many. Thank you for sharing your talent
This song.... it's so gorgeous. This song and Tale As Old As Time are the two most beautiful pieces of music ever composed I swear
I closed my eyes... and this brings back so many Thoughts of my Childhood, while I listen to this. And now I am sitting here, just smiling. Thank you. ;)
This song is soo soothing and powerful but the way you played it was even more amazing . I’ll keep coming back forever to re watch
This was the first song I ever heard kyle play, and from then on my ears have opened to a whole new world of music - which is the world of Kyle Landry! I can't thank you enough for your beautiful talent!! I wish to meet you one day ! x
First forty seconds:

The best arrangement I've heard.
KYLE LANDRY I LOVE YOU AND YOUR MUSIC INSPIRED ME TO START BACK UP ON PIANO AGAIN AFTER A VERY LONG BREAK. YOU ARE SO TALENTED.
I'm OBSESSED with Disney piano covers, and do a number of them myself. Something about my childhood mixed with my favorite instrument. But this is unquestionably the most moving one I've ever heard. I don't even think I'll ever attempt to cover Colors of the Wind simply because I couldn't reach this height. Holy cow what a piece...
This has got to be one of the most beautiful songs I have heard all week on TH-cam!
Sitting here drunk, listening to you play this instrument moves me from the core of my soul. This music you play sounds so beautiful and it very much makes me grateful to exist.
My man jumped out of the pool and decided to record a masterful piano rendition
My granddaughter Majai randomly started this video while I was working on intitives for Alaska Villages Food Security. A deep feeling of inspiration and joy filled my heart. Bless you for your spirit and
love that connects our hearts with our planet :)
This is absolutely insane. So inspired to get playing again. Thank you.
The chord at 3:38/3:49 is pure bliss. Send chills all over my body. Magnificent arrangement.
Its always good to remember that the composers should also be given our praise, they the ones who create these wonderful pieces of music, musicians are just the medium through which these creations are expressed and displayed, however great musicians such as Kyle will always respect this fact and play with all the love that these works deserve :D
This video deserves 1 billion views, it's just a masterpiece
This is absolutely beautiful. Thank you for blessing my ears.
This is my favorite Disney composition of yours. 3:10 onward just gives me chills everytime.
You took me back to my childhood
at the 3rd minute I felt like crying with the cresendo, beautiful interpretation
this gave me shivers, it's so amazing
I can only dream to play this piece as beautifully as you. Love this arrangement.
Your piano talent makes me cry tears of happiness (not kidding, sitting here crying watching this :) ) and this is one of my favorite songs. i would watch Pocahontas everyday when i came back from school and sing along. thanks for brining back all those good memories :)

Thank you! Praise God for your gift.
Pocahontas is my favorite film and piano is my favorite instrument - this is perfection! Just thought you should get told again (:
It took my 7 months to learn this piece and master it out.
It was a wonderfull journey. Never have I ever been so passionate during learning piano piece, that i was with this masterpiece.
I cried when I saw the sheet. Curse my short and tiny fingers.
***** where did you find the sheet music? x
on his website :D it was several years ago though im not sure is it sitll available
Alexandra H go to his website, link in the description, go to forum

Alexandra H Hi Alexandra,
Can you share the sheet with me
Thanks!
Every time I listen to you play I get this goofy grin on my face. I love your playing soo much!! So beautiful!
Ugh this is too good
This is one of my favorites. Makes me both smile and cry every time.
You don't realize how over ornamented this is until you try to play it o.0
Learning any instrument and playing a song you may enjoy gives you full appreciation of what went into the creation of that song
+john Ki
this piano cover warms my heart in so many levels. thank you
What kind of keyboard do you have. I love your arrangement. it's beautiful!!!!!!!
Every time I see you playing this piece I admire you more and more. Absolutely stunnig, no words left to say.

what model of this keyboard you use? sounds good
It's Yamaha P120, good ol' piece of hardware :)
You made this song so elegant and beautiful.
