@@MassHysteriaHDI found this song when I was in middle school in 2014 and always listened to it before middle school football games and all the good memories that it brought, I had someone who I considered a friend who was almost due to give birth to her second child get caught in a house fire with her first born too I play this song and think about them.
I recently lost my best friend. He was 22. He played the piano beautifully. I showed him the original version of this song... I didnt think it was possible to play the solo/synth with a real piano. How glad I am to be wrong and how sad I am I never got to show Jarek this song. I miss you.
10 years later I still come back and listen to this for this incredible iteration of my favorite electronic composition. After as many years I want to write a formal vocal melody for this song and record it. This performance is simply superb.
+Isaac Chang hahaha I should have man xD Got a picture of the place though. Behind me was a ton of seats and a huge bar far back. instagram.com/p/7QhHHYrE3k/?taken-by=kosmonautofficial
I remember the first time I listened to this almost four years ago, when everything in life was so much simpler, it was a happy time. Now, listening again, bittersweet drops of memories stream towards the ground. Memories of a joyous time when all was good. Bitterness now because the times have changed and life is void of joy. I hope to one day experience those feelings again, back when I would a future of endless possibilities instead of the dark nothing I see now. I remember back then, feeling so free it felt like flight. I hope to one day leave this dark place and fly again.
I've got some hard feelings that go to this one too. I remember when I first heard this track in my freshman year of my undergraduate at RCAD and I was all strung out on god knows what. Since then I haven't heard this song but maybe once in those 6 years. Now I'm 24 (an age I never thought I'd reach) and doing pretty well. A wonderful fiancée at my side and a little hovel we call home. Just a happy, drug free (5 years now) chef. Life hands you so many hardships, you just have to take worst and make it the best. Love to all of y'all.
I recently had my first child and her first song ever was this and she looked up at me and smiled and I bawled like a baby and I just want to thank you so much Evan for that experience
A good friend of mine took his life. He left it with this song. I miss him all the time. He was a good man and tried his best to fight the depression we both talked about. Rest in peace Emmett.
Evan, dude, i cried at this. This song seriously means a great deal to me, it's a huge part of my life. and you playing it so beautifully.. oh man, my emotions exploded. Thank you so much for this little piece of art ! Don't EVER stop.
I first heard this at my sisters wedding and have listened to this version ever since, seeing her go down the aisle completely set me off. If the opportunity ever come up, I would with mine too.
For all of us that want a long drive with our friends. Its been a long haul , and the pandemic still rages. It will end , this is a song of hope during these dark times. A song to me that is like staring out at lonely highway on a 🌙 bus to somewhere. Where that is only you know , but you will get there someday 🙏. We all will, so be safe and dream of this song on that long drive with someone special to glance at as the whisks of the open road touch your ears and endless gas stations zoom by you on your way to where you are going . Thank you Evan for this ...
Why. I just sat and listened. My wife came out and grabbed my arm and asked whats wrong. I said "What, nothing?" I had streams of tears down my face. I was lost in the music, my brain took a trip down memory lane. I was there once again for a split moment. That split moment I was there, I seen you. I love you. I will now live for that split second
the fact that the piano is in front of a window means that you stay studing music for too many hours!... congratulations for this song... the arrangement is so beautiful!
coming back to this in 2019 really hit me in the feels.. im recalling all the good memories i had in the past when i first heard this song and it make me teh sad boi 😭😔🤟
You're the reason that I started playing piano. Your arrangements inspires me everyday to keep learning and improving myself. I hope that one day I could play like you
This cover is a stellar example of how dynamics changes the emotion of a song. Evan over exaggerates piano and forte to such a wonderful effect in this piece
This has got to be one of the most beautiful song adaptations I've ever heard. I love the original version as well, but the way you managed to keep the electronic dynamics only with the piano is outstanding. I basically see this video every week, and every time is an amazing experience, you should be proud of yourself.
hey +Evan Duffy... when you have Chopin, Schoenberg, and Skrillex all on the same table... you're doing it right! I love you for doing this. so beautiful! thanks!
Happy new year 2024! So much love and impact this song has had on me. Be kind to your people and find peace within your heart. What a masterpiece. Kindness compassion and sincerity in each note. Thank you Evan Duffy for this tribute and may God bless you and your future.
Christmas 2024 and still gets me in the feels. This song helped me through my last deployment more than you could ever imagine in 2014. Such a beautiful materpiece. I never knew what the next day/convoy would be but i would listen to this at night before the mission to calm my nerves. Thank you.
I’ve been listening to this for yeeaarrss and I still get teary-eyed! This is beyond beautiful! It’s safe to say this is my favorite piano cover of all time.
man i remember listening to this song all the time back in 2011 , was my senior year of highschool, skrilexx was exploding with popuilarity in those days, he really changed the game. wonderful piano piece thank you so much,
This shows that skrillex doesnt just make noise. Theres beautiful musical notes in his music. This proves that skrillex is an artist. Not just a producer.
Wow, I was ten years late. This is beautiful and very well played, especially the part at 2:01 in the video. Sounds exactly like the original song's piano solo! Excellent!
I am literally over here crying in 2023. The guy I was dating when this song first came out k*lled himself last month and this brings back so many good memories for me. Thank you.
I literally love all your videos.. You have so much talent. You hear all these piano covers by others and they simply mimic the song but you give the song emotion and feeling. Chills everytime! You are the best pianist iv ever heard.
I listened to the original of Skrillex while I was studying photography in my room and my father came to work, he saw me studying and he asked me that music is so rare that I did not understand it. I was 79 years old, now it is not more died last year and I listened to it in the piano gives me nostalgia, good life is like that, we come and we go
I remember listening to these videos almost a decade ago, enthralled by Evan's virtuosity. I still come back every now and then to experience them again. Absolutely beautiful
Strobe, There might be Coffee and Aural Psynapse, this & October...so many years, one divorce, 2 kids and still sat here on my old tube amp with headphones at 110%.... Dont you ever take these down Evan x
This is one of most beautiful things I've experienced in my entire life. Words can't express it. Moments these like give me an entirely new appreciation for life.
This gives me so much piece. Thank you. I was deployed overseas in 2014, I happened to save this video and would watch it when things went to shit. I would listen to this and the original sound over and over to get my mind right.
Evan Duffy...you never cease to amaze.

Dopest sounding piano cover I've ever heard for any song. Something about this sound is off the charts with this song. Love it.
Almost at a million Evan. I'd like to take credit for about 2,000 of them! Great job!
Ayy a million
