    ► Behind the Arrangement
    Nothing like starting the day listening to "Wake me up" by Avicii featuring Aloe Blacc... This piano cover is a ragtime, boogie, and classical piano meets pop cover of the single by Avicii. I had fun making the arrangement for it, and I hope you enjoy watching.

    Thanks for watching!

    What a great way to start a day, with JONNY MAY playing Wake Me Up. Love the beginning part with the alarm clock waking him up. This version is really fun,by far the best piano version I've ever heard of this song. It's like ragtime in places. Outstanding!!!!!👍😀😅🙏

    I just discovered this channel and this is insane!!! Ive been listening to this for HOURS! I tried listening to to other ragtime pieces because of this, but this is by far the best and holds place as my favorite piano piece out there!!! You're so insanely talented!! Keep it up!

    • @adamgattis3749
      @adamgattis3749 Před 8 lety +1

      So it's not ragtime, but check out Jarrod Radnich, also an INSANELY talented musician!! Mainly his Bohemian Rhapsody and Game of Thrones Medley, and possible Star Wars medley. Then you can look at All of Me by Jon Schmidt. He's the pianist from the piano guys. Let me know what you think if you haven't heard of them already! :)
