Tori Amos Cornflake Girl Piano Transcription Tutorial Use the 'settings' gear icon below the video to the right and try some of the slower speeds to get the notes!
No, she does not "play" it -- she improvises it... each time it is different, and sometimes more awesome than the original. She OWNS the f-ing instrument, more so than most classical pianists. I think this is what proves that talent is a real thing. It's like speaking -- or singing -- to her.
Smart, that's made my evening. So many play the lyrics which I don't care to hear on the keyboard. Great to hear someone focus on the actual piano. I'm impressed.
I was the opposite for 30 years, only listening to the music. when i discovered the lyrics ==> :O imagine that to miss all the stories and great wisdoms of songs and irony of all songs, after knowing them by heart..
i think it's more likely, given the title of the video, that they are playing off a well-known transcription that originally came from the Velvet Hologram site.
You should be ashamed of yourself. I can't say for sure, but I doubt that piano did anything to you! How dare you leave it smoking like that after such a magnificent cover of an amazingly difficult amazing song! I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart, truly! Inspirational
Every single note has been perfectly played. So so sooo accurate. So beautiful. Tori is that artist that can be really hard to reach in terms of piano. You did it, and it's simply beautiful. Grateful to be able to listen to this🥲🤍
IM ESTATIC i have been waiting for a video that shows how to play this song. ive wanted to learn it for years and this video is just what i needed. Great work!
What in the world?! Aahhhmmmaaazzzzing! It is so awesome to see actually somebody playing it for real (aside from Tori!)! I love it! ❤️👍Even if it has a notation I don’t think I’ll be able to play like that! Kudos more power! 😊
First time I see your video, but I have looked for somebody playing this song before .... WOW, simply amazing, congrats, and thank you for this beautiful gift.
At the the end of my first piano lesson the teacher said "what song would you like to start digging into for the next class?" Me: Cornflake Girl! Teacher: Weeeeellll.....
man that was staggering, really really impressive. I'm such an amateur, I can play a bit but I'm a real fraud haha. I've always wanted to see the actual keys playing the piano part to that, you've honestly made my day (in fairness, the bar for "making my day" is quite low while we're all in lockdown in the UK hahahahaha)
You are quite awesome. It is good to see tutorials that attempt to play the piano as the artist does. The left hand is very busy. Are you sure you are not playing two tracks of piano and/or bass guitar notes? OF course, if you are, you are even more awesome
Very impressive. i have had the score to this transcription since high school and i could never get it exact. That said, i'm not sure how this is a tutorial exactly. =p
This is all about the left hand. I treied to work this out for myself when I was a teen back in the 90s when the internet was fresh and we only had chord tabs to go off if we were lucky! Looking at this I didn't do too badly. I'm a bit rusty now but it's a hell of a fun tune to play! Where can I find the actual manuscript/transcript online if it's avaliable?
And to think when Tori does this live and has to sing at the same time, OMG. True genius
Always blew my mind. Having seen this now........unbelievable.
No, she does not "play" it -- she improvises it... each time it is different, and sometimes more awesome than the original. She OWNS the f-ing instrument, more so than most classical pianists. I think this is what proves that talent is a real thing. It's like speaking -- or singing -- to her.
It’s as she said, she always knew how to play, ever since she was 2, with that kinda confidence nothing can stop you!
Smart, that's made my evening. So many play the lyrics which I don't care to hear on the keyboard. Great to hear someone focus on the actual piano. I'm impressed.
duly noted

Extremely good. I can only imagine how much work has gone into it to figure it out. Freaking opus magnum.
The piano solo part of this song is fucking epic.
RIGHT?!?!?? My favorite
That was absolutely phenomenal. I love seeing someone who can actually play it like Tori!
You worked this out by ear - I am blown away! Absolutely incredible
I love you Tori@

Tori Amos is a genius.

Wow, this is the first time I hear someone playing it like Tori herself! You did such a tremendous job, thank you for sharing ❤️
this blows my mind right now
I'm not even a piano player, and it's one of my favorite piano songs. Very cool to see how it's done!
So good!!! Yes and the cool part is that shes such a great musician she'd play it a bit differently each time she'd perform it.
Every single note has been perfectly played. So so sooo accurate. So beautiful. Tori is that artist that can be really hard to reach in terms of piano. You did it, and it's simply beautiful. Grateful to be able to listen to this🥲🤍
You're a genius. Absolutely true to the original! Gonna start banging those keys...
IM ESTATIC i have been waiting for a video that shows how to play this song. ive wanted to learn it for years and this video is just what i needed. Great work!
HOLY CRAP. Dude, that was pretty incredible. Very nice work.
Genius..I never get tired of coming back. Thank You
This clearly took a LOT of effort. Well done!
What in the world?! Aahhhmmmaaazzzzing! It is so awesome to see actually somebody playing it for real (aside from Tori!)! I love it! ❤️👍Even if it has a notation I don’t think I’ll be able to play like that! Kudos more power! 😊
This is amazing. I would watch one of these for every single Tori song, but I'm so happy you chose to start with this one!
First time I see your video, but I have looked for somebody playing this song before .... WOW, simply amazing, congrats, and thank you for this beautiful gift.
Phenomenal.
Damn. Really nice job. Best on CZcams. Everyone else is hacking it up

Amazing, thanks so much for your performance! So clear, so perfect....
Very impressive!! Would you be willing to write it down, or record a midi file? Ofcourse willing to pay for it..
Such a good song and so well played. Well done. Shame there isn't sheet music.
I have some sheet music here: forpiano.com/FILEX/C/81ke8f2y89/tori_amos--cornflake_girl.pdf

Hi, I really like your version. Where can I get the music sheet? The one that I found on the internet is not the same.
Sounds great. Couldn't find the tutorial part though..
This is all about the left hand. I treied to work this out for myself when I was a teen back in the 90s when the internet was fresh and we only had chord tabs to go off if we were lucky! Looking at this I didn't do too badly. I'm a bit rusty now but it's a hell of a fun tune to play!
Where can I find the actual manuscript/transcript online if it's avaliable?
