*ALL THE SOUNDS YOU HEAR WERE CREATED BY THE PIANO AND ONE CELLO BOW* (WITH SOME VOCALS AT THE END)
STORY BEHIND THE SONG
The idea: A couple months ago the 5 of us were gathered round a piano prepping for a video shoot scheduled for that day. We were brainstorming ideas when one of us (can't remember who!) got off task and starting flicking a piano string. Since all of us are poster children for ADHD, it wasn't long before ALL of us had joined in -- banging out a beat, plucking a string, or hitting keys. The brainstorming meeting had been sabotaged beyond repair, but another music video idea was born!
The song: We went through several song possibilities before landing on "What Makes You Beautiful" by One Direction. We like this song because it's catchy and the music, lyrics, and video passed our "sesame street" test (meaning family friendly). We thought about the ramifications of taking on a teenybopper boy band tune as five middle-aged married guys who are desperately holding on to their hairlines. One of us even has a son older than the guys in One Direction (we won't say who) :-) BUT you know us -- we love a good challenge! This one was so fun to write that the "challenge" part of it never was felt. We just acted like kids playing the piano and it totally worked! :-) After we figured out the main "techniques" of playing the piano unconventionally we loved experimenting with swapping out chords and throwing the structure of the song around until it clicked.
The location: Where to film? Fitting in video shoots between touring, writing, recording, editing, and spending time with family has always been a challenge. Let's be honest, even getting all 5 of us in the same place at the same time has been a challenge! We had a big sold-out show at the Sandy, Utah Amphitheater. We all determined to be at the show and film the video right on stage sometime between sound check and the performance. Sounds like a good idea right? Well...because of a lot of factors, including weather (we had a huge storm sweep in and knock everything down on stage during sound check) the only time we had to film was between the hours of 2AM - 7AM the morning of the concert. In the video at 2:30 you can see the morning light start breaking -- we literally played into the sunrise! :-)
Many thanks to the awesome guys at Annex Recording and Giles Reaves (engineer) for letting us record at their studio. Check them out at www.annexrecord...
Thanks to Sandy Amphitheater www.sandyarts.c... for letting us film this video on their stage. They were so great to work with and we've performed so many times there the staff are all old friends (especially you, Mearle!)
And thanks to Cole Adams, the lighting genius - who hung out all night allowing us to pull an all-nighter to film this.

Never seen anyone play an instrument wrong so perfectly.
Right!!!
So true
Right
*shrug*
Apparently that style (string piano) is an actual technique people do.
The more blasphemous one is when the player(s) intentionally detunes strings while a note is being played to pitch-shift it. And that too is considered a legitimate technique.
"We paid for the whole piano, we play the whole piano."
This is how to get good use out of it! XD
lol
Totaly! And they sure do a heck of a good job!
😂 made my day 😊
@@NT-zw2is this is. it is beautiful. almost cried. they used it all.
"Its my turn to play the piano!!"
"No, its my turn!!"
"Guys, I have a great idea...."
omg yes lol
Shut up
@@khadijahpinckney9437 rude
So true!😂
I can't remember the name, but there's a family group that does this, but I think it's 7 of them.
This probably won’t be seen, but oh well. When I was 6, my mom showed me this video and it inspired me to learn the piano. A year later, I also picked up the cello. 9 years later, I still play piano and cello competitively and as a hobby.
Thank you.
I saw it. And dayum that's good. I saw this video and gave up all hopes of playing piano.
Now I play guitar
@@batman_diaries same
It's an incredible video
Just say thanks Mom
That's so cool!!
The best part about this is how much fun they are having!
It's the only important thing to play music :)
totally agree :)
turtlelover1100 OMG I ABSOLUTELY LUV YOUR NAME!
Exactlieeee
I bet they love their job
Yamaha must give credit to these guys for proving how durable is their piano product.
Yup lol
You don't really know if they ever used it again after this :D
I still can't get over the pure joy and amazing chemistry between these guys - you can tell they're having the best time of their lives and that makes me happy.
cant believe it has been already 10 years since this video was posted. it just makes me smile how everyone is so full of happiness playing this music. thank you piano guys for always resonating and reminding true happiness in life
Me to
@@현민김-k7w me to
I know!
wow...
ヤバい動画を見つけてしまった
発想とか技術力とか完成度とか、すごい圧倒されました
楽しそうなのも素敵です
めっちゃ好きです
I love how they are working cooperatively together and enjoying themselves, no complaints, everyone is just purely having fun, that made me smile.
I know!
Haha it is probably the result of some heavy practice
After all these years, this still puts a smile on my face even during the darkest of times
Same! :D Warm hugs
For real! It's been so long that I've seen a Piano Guys video. I still remember it that I really really liked it back then. But like memories are, you don't exactly know how much you can trust them.
Now just through this one video that popped up in the recommendations after years, I see again why they are so special. I've watched so many videos today, and this one is the best of them all. It's just different, it tops them all. It just makes me so happy again. It's just looking into their faces making music with love one time, and it makes my day. Just makes me happy. They have that vibe that ignites your soul.
And that's just that one video. I am nervous what will happen if I now start watching all the other videos again? Will I survive? Will I be able to sleep tonight? :D
@@IroAppe I wish you well on your trip down memory lane!! ^^
i hope it still does~!!!!
I remember my Music teacher in elementary school showing us this video. It's what made me fall in love with music. Thank you Piano Guys for this inspiration!!! ❤
They really have a different way of inspiring people. I grew up playing the piano but I never really fell in love with it until I watched this video and I was able to see the many things just one simple piano can do! They have changed they way I view music in general.
smae
Same! I was showed this in elementary school
Me too
me too
What I love most about them is not their talent (don't get me wrong, they are SO talented) but how much passion and how much joy they have in creating music. You can obviously see with the smiles on their faces that they love doing what they do.
I think the passion is someone’s face really shows true musicianship. With all of there videos you really see it, but it’s different every time, they are amazing. They touch people in ways they do not even know and to me that is true musicianship!
same
I never liked this song until I heard this version. I love how these guys can make any song amazing!
1:19 the guy rubbing the piano is that person in group projects that act like they’re doing something to contribute when they’re not lol
ha haaaaaaaaaaaaaa
He's actually comforting the piano from the pain these humans were causing
Omg I died 😭😂😂
oh man.......
Lmao!! XD
Anyone 2021...?
Still I can't believe this video was 8 years old.
This is legit.🔥
so good song! :)
Yes, i Listen it in 2021
Listened for years for me and 2021
앙 기모링
Me litsen it at 2019
Them: are you in a band
Pianoguys: yes
Them: nice, which music instruments do you each play
Pianoguys: *yes*
I Died inside to this comment.
Wow🤯🤯🤣🤣🤣
LMAOOO
Them: So where's your music studio?
Pianoguys: *Yes*
My brother says ”yes"sooooo much😂
Ha! Just showed this to a friend who asked why I thought a piano was cooler than an entire band. His mind was blown. 😂
first golden knights fan that i respect
@@hoexskip so true, lol I'm a sharks fan, but yes
Lol the band was the best!!
The guy that rubs the piano is literally me trying to fit in with the cool kids
yeah like does that even make any noise?
@@nng2144 I'm not sure but its possible it affects the sound of when they use the piano as a drum
@@bobble68 oh that makes sense though thanks
@@nng2144 If you have decent headphones, you can hear the "shaker" sound that the rubbing makes.
@@KJ7QLV rhank you! i listened again i could hear it.
My 1st grade of elementary school music teacher used to start his classes with this video (and others from The Piano Guys and 2 Cellos) this is so nostalgic. This video inspired me to play music. This showed me that music isn't a lot of rules that you must obey, showed me that music is fun. If you know what you are doing, you can use a single piano to play a whole band
I know!
I can't stop watching this. Seriously. I'm mesmerized.
This is such wholesome music. It's also a lifesaver. It feels like everything is gonna be okay listening to this.
I may not like one direction but I do love how they use one piano to make all different sounds, like the piano and the string and the banging on the wood and stuff. Once again, great job.
Love these manual sounds from the percussion mixed with the percussion. Whoever guesses that can be created such a piece of wonderful music, you are extremely creative. Love you, guys!!!
That's incredible how they can do that!
MAGIC 😮😮😮
Yes it is.
This is by far my favorite one. One of the first that drew me to the piano guys
Me too!
This is the video that made me fall in love with the Piano Guys. I'm not a real fan of 1D, but this song is amazing, especially how they mix it up
i totally agree with you
Same here... This is the first Piano Guys song that I ever heard, and it is still one of my favorites!
Holly Abair same here holly
This is the earliest PIano Guys song i can remember and how I've loved it
me too!
CZcams just recommended this to me again after 12 years, nostalgia be hitting hard...
A grand piano is five instruments in one:
1. Harp.
2. Keyboard.
3. Violin.
4. Bass.
5. Drum.
Marvin the Maniac You are right! So functional.😂😂😂
@@aureliaepiphanys8768 it brings me joy to see people using their imagination.
Thx very much i need it for my test
@@princessprincess9435 what test would that be?
@@marvinthemaniac7698 it's for the music test he showed us this on the board and we had to name 5 things and i forgot about them so she give me the answers thx anyways
These guys are so good they can make any song sound amazing!
amazing

さいこー
my third grade teacher showed this to my class and i immediately fell in love with wanting to learn how to play the piano. fast forward almost seven years later, i have been playing the piano for six years. thank you to my third grade teacher for doing something as simple as showing my class this video, she really changed my life.
저 장면만큼은 피아노 건반 연주하는게 가장 쉬워보인다.
저 많고 얇은 줄의 위치를 어떻게 기억하고 연주할까요...
What? I don’t speak Spanish
Lots and lots of practice...
(also Paul it's Korean, and google translate ;p)
That is my favorite piano guys song EVER
me to
+Allie Marcel mine 2 !!!!!!!!!!!!
+Allie Marcel i forgot what te song was but one of them that they played was the first song me and my girlfriend listend to together and i played it for he on my piano and dat how we got together.
Astro Night HyuenBgn /p
It is called what makes you beautiful
The four-note pattern that Jon plays at 2:11 can be heard in the guitar solo in Don't Stop Believin' in the same key. That's cool.
予想を超えた演奏です♪素敵です。何より5人それぞれとっても楽しそうに演奏している姿に
勇気をもらいました。☺️ありがとう😊
Whenever I have a rough day, I watch this video and it always makes me smile. Thank all of you guys so much for what you do and for the happiness you create :) Changing the world one song at a time 🎶
Q: What instrument do you play?
ThePianoGuy: 1 fifth of a piano
So that's where the Circle of Fifths came from.
Percussion and piano
@@reelMn good one ^^
Cello
Piano and guys
I never thought in a million years that could be done with a piano. You guys never fail to amaze me ☆
Me neither, they are so amazing!
I grew up listening to a lot of these as a kid. Seeing just how long it's really been is terrifying and incredible all at once
I have listened to this song over 100 times. I listened to this when I was in high school. Now a college grad and still a huge TPG fan. This song will probably always have a role in my life. I feel like I was a fan before it was cool.
This deserves to show up randomly in EVERYONE’S recommended!
This might be 7 years old now but I still love it to this day. It reminds me that every part of the whole is important and has it's uses. Just remember that if you are down because you feel useless or think you are a hindrance, you are not. You are important too! Don't forget even the keyboard cover has a part in this song. Typically a cover is there to stop the music, hinder the player from playing, but here is is used to accentuate the song. The song would be missing something if it wasn't present. Whether you are the keys, the strings, the mutes, the hollow wood, or even the keyboard cover you are important to the song. The song we are all living in, the story of what makes you beautiful. Never forget that.
Wow- I remember when I was in 3rd grade and my music class teacher played this for us. I was amazed. I loved the song then and still love it now (nostalgia). And now, as a senior in high school, I am still blown away by this. Never got a chance to comment until I was finally allowed to make my own channel, and I am glad I am able to share my experience now, only 9 years too late.
One of their earliest, and still one of their best!
You guys are awesome it looks so hard to pick the right strings among all of those others
I can do it
+Heather Warner It's called practice.
like I know?
There is so many ways to use a piano. You guys did it great.
I love this video
*This evokes emotional happy tears in me. I don't know how to explain it. Its beautiful. Its ART. Music is ART!*
WOW! This was really incredible to watch! Never heard of these guys, but just came across them by chance. Really glad I did. They are just wonderful.
***No pianos were harmed in the making of this video***
oh,i dont think so
The name suits him xD
**1 violin bow had been fucked and started shagging inside of an piano**
Would have written exactly the same lol
lol fol das geile lied
I'm not that big of a fan of one direction but when the piano guys did this I loved it!!!💜💜💜
You know, I'm coming back to hear this music every year. It' been almost 10 years. There were only few clips on this CZcams. I really love all your art but this still inspires me back to my college years. Whenever I hear it it feels like wake up on clear fine morning.
Wtf did i just watched
The whole band in one instrument
All instruments played on one piano
The formal equation is Magic x Talent = Music
I don't think they have actually played it on one piano inthe video they are pretending to do it.
Me: no one can play on one piano
The band: hold are beer
Me: trys to hold their beer * damn it guys what wtf
They are. They even performed it.
When you can playone instrument, it's not hard to make the jump to another, same underlying structure, music is music. Instruments are just a way of expressing what is already inside.
I used to watch this like 7 years ago and now I just came across it again and remembered how amazing it is
This must’ve one of the few vids i saw of the Piano Guys and followed them ever since. 10 years on and today I just watched them live in Singapore. What a journey.
💖BEAUTIFUL💖
♡☆♡☆♡
They make me smile with their music!
Musical class teacher: here's piano. Please be careful when using it
The 5 bastards in the back row seat: ...... lmao okay
I think it's been broken after this MV!! =)) lmao
Every so often I come back to marvel at what a masterpiece this whole thing is. Quite possibly my favorite piece from them and that’s saying something since all of their music is absolutely incredible.❤❤
Whenever I hear this tune on the radio or something, I don't immediately think, "Oh, One Direction." No, my first thought is, "Hey, the Piano Guys!"
I'm amazed that they can use one piano to make so much sound and instruments with it!!
What Make You Beautiful?
This Piano Talent 👍🏻
I love the melody you've created with plucking the piano's inner strings. I had no idea that could actually be done. This entire piece is absolutely amazing.
수업시간에 선생님이 틀어주셔서 둘었는데 너무 노래 좋다ㅠㅠㅠ 어떻게 피아노 하나 거재고 이렇게 완벽한 노래를...!
인정
피아노를 닦는거야뭐야
그리고 내렸다 올렸다하다가 탁 내리면
아 이라라라라라라라라가 되겠지
저도이거쌤이틀어주셔안거에요ㅠ너무노래좋아요!!
I'm terrified of what sheet music for this song looks like.
i would LOVE to see it!!!
Ahhh god
Hahaha🤣🤣🤣
Besides treble and base clef, there must be new clefs created to identify what part of the piano you're drumming or strumming.
LMFAOOOOOO
Not real sure why I had never heard of you before, have been a piano player all my life. But I have found you now! What the 5 of you did with this piano is amazing... and you sing too? Went straight to one of my playlists... thank you for giving this to us to listen to.
These guys are really the 'king of music'
Anytime they can make your mood relax..
The guy who bought the piano:
Yes my piano finally!
The 4 other guys:
OUR piano
communism
*STALINE INTENSIVES*
🤣
😆👌🏻
Our piano comrade
Да 🙌 communism
judge: what is your talent?
Piano: I play music
judge: what is the name of the instrument?
Piano: Human. I play 5 of them all at once.
judge: amazing!
VietNam??
And then the organ walks in and is like "I play every instrument in an orchestra at once"
very funny
Still great ten years later. This is the first video i saw from the piano guys
The magic of Christmas music and the harmony of bright people. It’s a pity I had such a dream to also play or sing with friends, but I couldn’t. At least I’m happy for others.
Absolutely proud of you guys! Well done today! That must have been so nerve racking!
You guys are amazing. Thank God for your talent and love for this country!,
This is the most wonderful way for the great Piano Guys to play the piano. ONE AND FIVE
This vid nearly made me cry the first time I saw it because it has such a positive energy and you guys are having so much fun playing it, it’s overwhelmingly joyful and I love it
Still one of my absolute favorite videos/renditions by them! I've watched this video I don't know how many times. but it never gets old!
I Love The Piano Guys! Please! Make more videos!
Stay tuned! More coming soon. :)
Obaeeee!! Where is going to be your next show? When is it going to be in Brazil?
I love this song💘
me too
Juliana Ventura I love the piano guys too there songs are amazing 😀
THIS is beautiful.
3年前くらいに見て感動したのを思い出して必死に探して見つけた
ほんとに好き
I can listen this again and again! Love it!
This takes way more talent than the original
#Truth
Even though I kind of like 1D, I agree with you! This version takes way more time and talent to create.
And With only one piano
this is just...TOO FUN!!!! lol had me smiling watching y'all having a blast, love the creativity, musical excellence! great music guys
How absolutely beautiful and ingenious. I love all of your music. Thanks you.
I bet when they created the piano, working it like this would never have entered their minds. haha What creativity abounds today! That was really cool, guys!
Обожаю Piano Guys! В этой музыке вся моя жизнь ! Это беззаветная любовь на протяжении десятка лет! Мечтаю попасть на их концерт в США!
"We couldn't live without music" When people say that I think of everyone who plays a musical instrument... Imagine this, you wouldn't see the piano guys, or any of those awesome people!
8 years, come back and still the same emotion when watching these guys playing that piano so good.
I like to wonder how many tries it must have taken all of them to perfect this. :)
I have no idea
i like to wonder how many times they got their fingers stuck between the cover
0:54 "dont minds me, im just massaging this expensive piano".
This truly defines 'ThePianoGuys'.
This is from my childhood and always brings back fond memories with my family. I'm so glad it's still here. Beautiful music! ❤
Honestly this is the very first time I heard this group before and they left me in shock with my jaw open!!! Simply flawless! I loved everything about them and how they perform; everything. Now to find tickets I gotta get my husband to take me to a concert. PERFECTION!!!!!!!!!
Glitter lovers Channel #love you guys they split up
omg i listened to the christina perri one they did and it made me tear up... but this? omg.... just when i thought they couldnt get better
The way you smile while singing is harmonious. And beautiful!!!Hahaha
WOW! The energy is amazing and it’s so wonderful to see the creative ways to create music. What a gift! Thank you for what you share.
Stuck up in quarantine, 2020, listening to this ageless gem!
How in heavens name this could receive and thumbs down let alone the amount it has is mind boggling. These artists are pure genius!
Idiots these days.
Ante semejante experimento musical, huelgan los comentarios, es increíble lo que pueden llegar a interpretar cinco músicos con un sólo piano. "The piano guys".
GENIAL NUMERO MUSICAL Y LA FORMA DE SACARLE SONIDO ENTRE LOS CINCO ES MAGNIFICO

pilar Herrera Gracias Pili, besos.
german quintero Gracias amigo Germán, saludos.
Siiiiiii ame su forma de ingeniarse con un solo piano, es increíble
This is where I first saw the piano guys.. 11 years ago. And you guys are still on may playlist on spotify
Omg the memories! I listened to this so long ago
