      How come on your website you have to enter your credit card information in first before you get the free trial?

    • @NoHandlebars87
      @NoHandlebars87 Před 7 lety +1

      Because websites that do trials like that, like to count on people forgetting to cancel before the trial expires and then they get charged even if they don't use it because they never cancelled and then they being hdpiano make more money. Always been a scummy way to run things but so many sites do it that nobody thinks twice about it.

      The HD piano guy sent me a refreshed link to the same website saying he's hooking me up with the free trial that doesn't make you enter your info, but nothing changed at all... Them scams?

    I joined the British Army in 1977 when this song was charting. During training my troop took it as our motto, and we would open all the windows whenever we won something from the other troops, and blast this out at em. Good days and fond memories.

    Where did I hear this song most memorably. Queen in concert at the Los Angeles Forum, News of the World Tour. They opened the show with"We Will Rock You" and then they played this. I was about 35 feet from the right side of the stage. Seeing Brian May from that close was unforgettable.

    I started learn playing the piano by my own, about 1 year ago or so. Only because I wanted to be able to play some songs I like (mostly queen songs). Now, I found this video and it helped me a lot improve my skills for this song. Thank you so much! After only 1 day of practise I can play it along with you. I am so happy. Thank you thank you thank you! 😊😁😄

    My dad played Queen for me probably since conception. Queen has always been my favorite band, and each and every song is emotional for me. I just remember this song as one of the songs where my dad said, “Oh this is a good one,” and he would crank up the volume.

    I do appreciate your teaching style. It's at a good pace and it's very musical the way you mention the chords and talk about the importance of improvisation. Though I watched this song being played by Queen in a concert shown on TV in the 70s, I think the seminal performance for me was at LiveAid in 1985!

    I was about 7 years old when my father taught me the sneaky, and shady ways of Mariokart 64. He was RUTHLESS. I still get anxious approaching the jump in Wario Stadium, even when nobody has lighting... Anyways. He would destroy me like any good father would. The part ill never forget tho is him SCREAMING this song after winning EVERY cup tournament... Well, last year i competed against Dad in my fantasy football league. I won :) I learned this song thanks too you, and video recorded my hands playing it with my championship ring on. It was glorious, and well worth the laugh. Thank you.

    I first heard this song on inthe car with my cousins at age 13 on the way to piano lessons, with a piano teacher that my cousins saw and that i started to have lessons with also. I hadnt heard queen before and I got to hear this song and the entire albulm , it was amazing i was very impressed and years later i taught myself to play bohemian rhapsody . i figured out out part of this song by ear , becasue i wanted to impress my friend in russia who i am helping to sing this song by tunign the song down a whole step to suit his voice. anyway last night I was sendin a video of me playing my piano on skype playing and singing by ear and then i got stuck on a few chords so thanks very much for making this video. i could hear a tiny element of you make my live with the octaving you did at one point. very useful video. by the way thiss song still sounds good down a tone, for those guys who cant sing high, i recommend it.
