    *The transition from that intro which sounded no where closer to the notes of playing god to actually playing the playing god was really great, keep it up man*

    This is probably my favorite interpretation of playing god, you’re playing it like a piano, like using your strengths instead of trying to play a guitar song on a piano ur playing music on your piano, ur brilliant

    This is by far the best piano rendition I've heard. The intro flows beautifully, and it is arranged in a way that sounds like a piano piece.
    Also the Bossa Nova part sounds so nasty and I love it.

    Tim would be proud. You can make a career in music do not stop or give up to be “more practical”. There’s nothing practical about abandoning a legitimate chance to do what you want in exchange for doing something safer that you hate doing. Treat music like it’s your job and it will be your job. You’re good enough.
