yes! thank you Ryan! You always pull through. If you feel that you need to make another Killers tutorial I woudn´t hate you for making say… Romeo and Juliet (Killers or Dire Straits, both are fine).
thx, been playing the piano for about 3 months and im self taught, but after like a week of practice this went like a charm.
could you plz put on a tutorial on all the things that i´ve done?
plz consider.
So im a big killers fan and i appreciate the songs you do, but i have a request that does not involve the killers but instead Aqualung, they have pretty good songs such as left behind, outside, brighter than sunshine but there is this one song i would love to learn call Pressure Suit, pretty good song, i just wanted ask, and if you dont mind i would appreciate it,
thanks, -Zach
Thanks for teaching and putting up these tutorials. I never liked playing classical music from my teachers, but you have made it enjoyable for me again! Thanks for everything now, and thank you for teaching the bases to all these songs. I’ve learned Pictures of You, Apologize, Take a Bow, and No One from you. I regret dropping piano after playing for four years so all of you thinking about quitting, don’t! I am now learning how to play the full song of Apologize and such so yeah, again thanks so much!
nice, slow and explained. keep it up
btw abbey road does not mean on piano. its referring to a piano recording the klillers did of sam’s town at an abbey road studio
this song made me want to play piano.
I tried to figure it out by myself, but the chords confused me and i lost it. thank you so much for clearing those parts up for me.
thanks a lot!!!!!!…I really like these song…and also Romeo and Juliet..by killers or Dire Straits..if you could do it too I’d be so happy.. : )
(sorry for my bad English..I’m Italian)
hey ryan! Thank you SSSSOOOOOOOOOOOOO much for this,I’ve been looking so long for the sheet music, this song is amazing live, i saw them playing just four days ago and everyone was singing their lungs out to this song….Thank you!!
Thank you so much for setting this up! I learned the whole song by watching your tutorial, You’re a great teacher. Here was the only place I could find out how to learn, I was looking everywhere.
I was totally blowen away from the piano and ur singing voice that i was zoning out and it toke me 4eve 2 learn but, this is so worth it!!! have u evr thought of doing another song by the killers??? that would b awesome!!!! plz take in2 considering
Dude, this is awesome. i just started to play piano, like this week and this is easy to follow. I cant understand it sometimes so could u PLEASEEEE email me the tabs
Also jetzt hör mal zu du alter Hartgeldstricher:
Ich hab jedesmal nach deinen Tutorials fürchterliche Kopfschmerzen, weil du immer so viel verpeilst und es manchmal auch unvollständig erklärst bzw. die Sachen die leicht sind erklärst du ausführlich und die die schwer sind sehr prägnant, was hier keinesfalls positiv gemeint sein soll dude. Mir gehen auch diese ganzen Kommentare auf den Sack, du wärst ja so awesome, amazing etc. das nervt unheimlich. Du bist jetzt kein ausnahmetalent sondern nimmst dir einfach die Zeit für sowas vielleicht bist du ja arbeitslos.Ich weiss nicht was deine Beweggründe sind so eine Seite zu machen vielleicht um dich zu profilieren. Kein Plan viel Geld wirst du damit wahrscheinlich nicht machen.
Und noch etwas :
Ich mache mehr dreier als Dirk Nowitzki, deine kleine ist wie ein Mp3 sie lies sich einfach auf meinen Stick ziehn.
Trotz alledem möchte ich mich bei dir bedanken, da du mich zum Klavierspielen motiviert hast, obschon wenn man besser sein will man doch Noten lesen lernen muss, um anspruchsvoller Lieder zu spielen, da diese hier ja wenn wir ehrlich sind total einfach zu lernen sind.
In diesem Sinne…mein Schwanz ist wie Herr der Ringe er hat überlänge dude.
great job awesome
OMG that was sooooo f***ing awesome dude!!! tanks so much for puttin that up, i have spent aaaages trying to learn 1 killers song, and this is the best sooo far!!!
Hello ryan, two points, why does my son get tought by you over me! its diabollical, as i am a well respected piano teacher,my son further achknowlodged me and insulted my methods of teaching he says my progressive sheet music baffles his intelect but my obligations stand strict but on the contary he seems to be playing ‘pop’ songs and sounding pretty good so thanks.
Wow… this is amazing… i haven’t tried playin the piano in about 20 years, but saw this video and decided to try playing this song while I was at my parent’s place for Christmas. Your step by step instruction was amazing, and I’ve been working at this straight for the last two days. My entire family is amazed, and were like ‘wow, we never even knew you played piano!’
Thanks again and can’t wait to see what else you post up!
hey,
i ve been looking for this song for so long and because i’m not an experienced player (played 1 year when i was 11) it was really nice to get a step by step instruction. i already invested 4 hours and i got almost half of it.
thank you very much for this awesome piece of music.

Thanks so much for these tutorials! Me and my friend are playing this at some little coffeehouse show and me my friend and the rest of my band are playing Mr. Brightside and more at a summer-ish gig. All thanks to me learning them which is thanks to you!
man thanx heaps, last week i was stuck playin crappy songs and i couldn’t find sheet music for a good song to play for my solo piano performance but this is the best and i’ve got to say… THANKYOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
thanks - but a few thoughts: you may want to use chord names, you may want to use terms like “intro” “verse” “chorus” etc so we can tell which part is which…the video is just too jumpy and all over the place. it sounds great and the notes all seem right but i need more visuals…sheet music, chord names, etc.
hey this is so cool thank you so much …. i’m playing it for my music practical exma ….. in your face music teacher! ha ha. what other killers songs can you do???
Thank you soooo much!! I looked everywhere for this and now I’ve found you and this website it’s helped me lots! Is there any possibility you could do ‘A Dustland Fairytale’ at some point?
I wish your theory knowledge was better. Also you skip chords as if it was common knowedge and just call them ‘here’. All your A flats should be G sharps.
Thanks for this. I was able to learn it really easily. I’m not the best with notation, so this really helped me out. Thanks a heap.
I’m assuming you use the sustain pedal? I’m not quite sure,
but it sounds a lot better with it.
zomg (zombies on my garage) I will watch this no matter how long it takes me to learn it!!!!!! I am so determined to learn this, it’s my favorite song by them on piano and i’ve been waiting for a tutorial I don’t have to pay for! Thankyouthankyouthankyou!!!
I am a self-taught pianist and I am quite young and found this extremely easy to follow. I have only been playing for about nine months but learned this in a bout a day.
THANK YOU!! i have been wantin to learn this for a very long time. If you have sheet music, or know where i can find some PLEASE! post it or something. You are the best.
well Ryan, that is very cool, but you know the song and the other 75 dudes who response i tink there just want generous pleacure from piano (amateur, not proffesion like me)… if you are really generous to send me the scores, my mail is master1_chief@hotmail.com and if saw, well i’m not from Mexico, i really don’t get your notes, please, i need the scores man, thanks, you can send me a e-mail with the scores or a page where i cand find the scores (but for free dude)… see ya guys, nice play, is part of nature, remember…
hey thanks so much for this. the killers are my favorite band too
so i was wondering if you could do a dustland fairytale
i know you get tons of recommendations so it was just a thought
Hey Ryan this is fantastico, if you would please e-mail me at Coel91@sbcglobal.net, I have a personal question to ask. You and this song have just drawn me to begin playing so yes, I am an amateur.
Thanks
Beautiful. I love to get my hands on sheet music as well but I’m kind of weird about how I learn songs on piano…I don’t read music well so this is helpful.
Also, its nice to hear just the piano part of the song without the additional instruments that eventually come in. I knew this was a beautiful song but I didn’t realize how beautiful it was until now.
hey dude AWWWWWWWESSSSSSSSSSOME TUTORIAL I learned the song in a few hours and now I play it while I sing really fluid.
THANK YOU SOOOOOO MUCH.
YOU ARE A REALLY GREAT TEACHER

this is awesome! i’ve been digging for Sam’s Town arrangements for my recital for about a month now with no luck.
i realize you must be busy, but would any of you object to helping me in writing the vocal piece?
Wow… this is amazing… i haven’t tried playin the piano in about 20 years, but saw this video and decided to try playing this song while I was at my parent’s place for Christmas.

You play well, but teach awfully. For a beginner learning the ropes and wanting to learn a great song you’re moving far too fast!
Thanks for this. I was able to learn it really easily. I’m not the best with notation, so this really helped me out. Thanks a heap.
I’m assuming you use the sustain pedal? I’m not quite sure,

Hey I was wondering if you could post the sheet music? I want to play this song for my piano class final but I cannot find the sheet music.
You were a member of the great individuals of this planet that give education to people for free.
just like khanacademy.org
Then you started charging money with playpianoking.com and I can’t even finish this song because the video won’t play past 17min.
I’ve been working for weeks on this song and now I’m to pay you so I can finish it. Shame on you for misleading me with ‘freepianotutorials.com’
shame on you.
this is great man!!! thanks alot for sharing!!
This is just what I needed! Thank so much!
