56. Martin October 7th, 2008 at 8:31 am

    You’r amazing, and the tutorial is easy even to someone like me who don’t can play piano. It would be awsome if you could write up the accords i the description or somethin like:
    Left hand: F right hand: C H A:flat
    that would be awsome and very helpful for many (ofcourse if it don’t take so long time for you

57. James October 11th, 2008 at 4:53 pm

    RYAN! THANK YOU SO MUCH! I thought I could never do this, I tried at first and I sucked so bad, but now I’ve learned to play it!!! I love it! Now to practice it many times. Just to everyone else trying to learn it; DON’T GIVE UP! YOU CAN DO IT!

58. lawren October 11th, 2008 at 6:26 pm

    Wow,
    I learnt alot of your songs off youtube. Its great to see your getting successfull, you deserve it, your songs are always easy to understand and my favourite would have to be ‘Unfaithful by Rhianna.’ That was a beautiful piano piece.
    You rock!!!
    Love Lawren : )

    do you have the sheet music for this song

70. Jeremy December 8th, 2008 at 5:52 pm

    ure good

71. mary December 30th, 2008 at 2:06 pm

    what are the DVDs like?
    do they do it kind of the way you show us how to do it?
    or is it more like notes and stuff, because I can’t do notes. I play by ear, but not to the extent that I can listen to the song and pick out thenotes for both hands. i can only do the main melody, like what the person sings.
    did you take classes on how to play by ear or somehting?
    because i would love to be able to do that.
    thank you

    you’re great =)

     hey ryan your tutorials are really good except for some reason on my piano some of the notes sound out of tune even though I’m playing the same notes as you and yours sound perfect. And I was wondering if maybe you could learn how to play Paranoid by Kanye West. It’s kinda like a synthesizer but still sounds cool. Thank you?

104. Joseph August 17th, 2009 at 4:10 am

     DUDE! RYAN!! you’re freaking awesome man seriously ive only just started piano but these tutorials really help man.
