Thanks, Jade! Glad you like it and wish you well. BTW, you can also hear this on streaming services such as Spotify and others. Have a nice weekend, James

If a picture paints a thousand words, Then why can't I paint you? The words will never show the you I've come to know. If a face could launch a thousand ships, Then where am I to go? There's no one home but you, You're all that's left me too. And when my love for life is running dry, You come and pour yourself on me. If a man could be two places at one time, I'd be with you. Tomorrow and today, beside you all the way. If the world should stop revolving spinning slowly down to die, I'd spend the end with you. And when the world was through, Then one by one the stars would all go out, Then you and I would simply fly away Songwriters: DAVID GATES

Hi James. .. super effective 'capture' of this great classic song . .. nice work . .. I used to play and sing this one with the guitar and it is a special song for sure. . . best. . . jeff
Hi, James. It's been a while since I last heard this romantic song "If." Your arrangement is so beautiful, and I enjoyed it very much. Thanks for posting.
Hello Sir James. My name is Anton from the Philippines. I would like to ask your permission to use this song cover for my Music video cover for FB post only. This is not intended for commercial use. just to inspire people to hang on in this time of crisis and listen to beautiful music. Thank you Sir.
Also, I just released this song on Spotify and other streaming services. Please share this link as well. open.spotify.com/album/2Gy06fQItKz4CHUpAOuzYi?si=w0lR1yLvS1enAmKSYvhEYg&dl_branch=1
Key Wizard When I'm playing I'm simultaneously recording in Logic. Afterwards I match and sync the video and recording and turn down the volume from the mic on the video and just use the recording. But I am actually playing it.
What a beautiful piece and your arrangement. By the way I wonder what this title means in Japanese language.... :D How should I translate this title into Japanese language....I don't know.... :-) Anyway, this is so lovely piece. I love it.
I have seen that many of your arrangements are available through Amazon. I would love to download this arrangement of "If". When can you make it available?
Thanks, Carl! The sheet music is available in the description from Sheet Music Plus. I haven't made the recording available yet, but may do so eventually. Have a great week! James
Thank you, James, for your quick response. Ferrante and Teicher's arrangement of IF has been my all-time favorite and unforgettable version. Your arrangement, however, has made me give my judgment a second thought.
It is in the description, but here it is as well at Sheet Music Plus: www.sheetmusicplus.com/title/if-by-bread-piano-arrangement-digital-sheet-music/20240454?ac=1&_requestid=4375585
Woooow!! If you want to make someone cry....them play this, you will need a lot of kleenex's. Beautiful. How a piece of music can be so emotional. Great YT clip.
Best version I have found on TH-cam
Thank you, Vivian! Have a happy and safe weekend, James

You captured the beauty of this song so well. Thank you. I would love to hear “To make you feel my love,” Specifically by Garth Brooks.
Cheers
Thanks, Idza! Will have to look at the Brooks song sometime. Have a great week, James
I'm all teary eyed
Thanks for listening
This sounds so nostalgic!😩🥰✨ Great Performance Michael!
Thanks, Khalee! Have a great weekend, James
這是我最喜歡的英文老歌之一，這也是我聽過最有感情、最溫柔的鋼琴版本，謝謝你!!

If a picture paints a thousand words,
Then why can't I paint you?
The words will never show the you I've come to know.
If a face could launch a thousand ships,
Then where am I to go?
There's no one home but you,
You're all that's left me too.
And when my love for life is running dry,
You come and pour yourself on me.
If a man could be two places at one time,
I'd be with you.
Tomorrow and today, beside you all the way.
If the world should stop revolving spinning slowly down to die,
I'd spend the end with you.
And when the world was through,
Then one by one the stars would all go out,
Then you and I would simply fly away

Nice playing,good audio,mind me asking James,did you use recording software for the audio?or it's just the mic from the video recorder?thanks

thanks for sharing James,well done
this song always makes me feel lonely :'
Yes, it has a little melancholy when I hear. Thanks for listening, Hanna! Have a nice week, James
What a beautiful piece and your arrangement.
By the way I wonder what this title means in Japanese language.... :D
How should I translate this title into Japanese language....I don't know.... :-)
Anyway, this is so lovely piece. I love it.
Thanks, Taka! "If" is actually the name of the song and "Bread" is the music group that performed it.
