- Had to join in on the fun and record a version of this Wednesday Addams cello arrangement of The Rolling Stones' "Paint it Black" from the Netflix series!

I started watching the show last week and I've been pleasantly surprised! Love all of the characters and how committed the actors are to their roles, the fun mystery of the plot, and just the right amount of camp. Also love to see the cello representation!
When I heard this piece in the first episode I immediately thought back to Ramin Djawadi's memorable arrangement of the same song from HBO's "Westworld," so I thought I'd throw in a bit of that suspenseful intro too!

Had to do it! What are everyone's thoughts on Wednesday? Love all of the characters, Morticia + Gomez are probably my favourites 🖤
I knew it you were gonna cover this song!!
@@azure.heartz Couldn't miss out on this moment for the cello community! ✌
I bet Mick Jagger wished he was getting royalties. Great job!
@@javier77street oh I’m sure he is! Not that he needs them haha 😅
I love Wednesday I watched it 10 times already like how
Growing up I had a neighbor who would play cello and she was hired at the Opera. She would play the most beautiful pieces and it felt like such a treat when she played late in the evenings and us kids would fall asleep while listening to her play the cello. As an adult I can understand why she never got a noise complaint by any of the neighbors because we got to listen for free, what people paid lots of money to listen to.
thats so cool
All we had was a guy who played bagpipes at 7:30am every Saturday morning. Sounded like a cut cat.
its because she was good already, if she was just learning im sure she might get 1 or two complaints haha
That’s such an awesome memory!
If someone had complained, someone else would have complained about the complaint.
I love how cellos can sound so mournful, & energetic at the same time
FRRRRR tho! Lol i rlly wanna learn how to play it
You feel mournful at the death of your sassy aunt but it has to come that your mom feels more energetic, happy, calmer and loving to you since your sassy aunt's death. You and your siblings has felt very suspicious of this sudden change from a life of fear of being slapped in the buttcheeks with the belt by your mom to a life of happiness and lack of sorrow. So you and your siblings has begun to investigate on why this sudden change happened and also its timing exactly on your sassy aunt's death.
Well it’s supposed to be a reference to Westworld as well
THIS
And that’s exactly why I play it. Fell in love with it in grade six, still playing to this day 🖤
People that don't play string instruments don't realize how hard it is to pull off those pizzicato, staccato and glissando while executing the piece with melodramatic and whole sounding notes. The emotions and the dynamics of your playing is just majestic. Bravo.
I do! I play trombone but I watch my friend play violin a lot. Definitely very hard work, I wish I could pick up a string instrument lol
i play piano. that's a string instrument
I learned how hard it is by watching Two Violins here on YT, lol...
Yes, sting instruments are so hard! My 12 year old is pretty advanced in classical guitar, playing some level 8-9 pieces. When he started learning cello 6 months ago, left hand was easy to pick up,
but bowing techniques is very difficult, a lot more thought into how to move each stroke. He thinks cello is harder than classical guitar.
@@Whynot690eh not necessarily but it’s a instrument, they were referencing like instruments that use strings to play on not keys
I love how Wednesday has reminded people of just how beautifully dynamic the cello can be
As a guitar player it made me interested in cello for sure
Watching Jan-Michael Vincent play one during the Airwolf into made me interested in the cello.
True
Are you all sleeping on 2cellos?
the real ones never forgort
I love your interpretation of the song! Such a soulful beginning :)
Thanks Jeremy! Sorry I wasn't able to do those controversial arpeggios 😅
@@nicholasdyee hey Nicholas i played for 7 years growing up its been plenty more since then and now im saving for a cello again u inspred me to reconndct to my childhood and hear the music again
I made it 1k🙈
This wasn't a cover... this was a performance . Thank you.
I know you couldn’t hear it but I got so caught up in how amazing this is I clapped out loud when you finished
Oh my goodness thank you so much! 🙏
@@nicholasdyee 😄
That's so funny, I caught myself clapping too.
Clap louder
I am _astounded_ at how well you managed to cover the composition. From my understanding the original was significantly enhanced through studio technology. I think it’s a testament to your skill that you managed to reproduce the complex drama of the piece all through your own talent. Hats off to you and thank you for this breathtaking rendition. I’ll be listening to it many, many times. :-)
This is such a kind comment, thank you! I definitely made adjustments to my version to make it easier to play haha 😅
This is an absolutely amazing rendition of the song. The plucking part made me gasp when I first heard it! And the bit at 1:50 really stood out to me! Your playing is beautiful!
Wow thank you so much! 🙏
Pulling it😂 sry
When I saw this comment I was at 1:50 in the video 😂
669th like muahahahaha
The best cover of Wednesday’s Cello playing !!! You’re soo good!!
Thanks so much, love seeing so many amazing cello players engaging with this piece! 🙌
this is probably the best cover of the cello scene with the string plucks and overall atmosphere, stays faithful but also distinct in its own way
Paint it Black, a masterpiece in of itself, became a masterpiece once again when it was covered for Wednesday. Not only that, but you, a master yourself, was able to perform said masterpiece as well in the most beautiful way. Kudos to you 🫡
1:48 this jazzy bit is so cool
I landed here accidentally and I have ZERO regrets. I've never listened to music like this before and WOW!!!!! so many emotions ran through me but it was enjoyable the entire journey. Thank you sir!
That means a lot, thanks for listening and for the kind words! 😊
It's a cover of the song that wednesday played in the series
Cellos are extraordinary
Thank you for showing that it is not only possible, but smooth and fluid to do this in real life. Masterful rendition.
Absolutely gorgeous! I was hoping you'd cover the song! Especially since there are some parts that are kind of impossible to play so I wanted to see your interpretation!
Awe thank you so much! Yep there are definitely parts of the show version that I would never be able to play 😅
@@nicholasdyee i never realized it ! not a cello player but this was so perfect!
@@nicholasdyeenever say never!
Call me old fashion but I love seeing someone play this rendition on an instrument. The movement and fingering on the strings is pure art!
It doesn’t matter a character or day of the week. Your talent brings beauty to this world.
I love how flawless he was while playing. It was a pleasant surprise for Wednesday to be playing the Cello and Paint It Black by the rolling stones. A few of my family members (deceased and living) are fans of The rolling stones music.
I was surprised to see that the title doesn't mention that "Paint It Black" is a Stones song, not Wednesday Addams or Westworld.
i like it when musicians can play the song with their own creativity and originality like he did
I got chills at 1:45! Amazing cover!
Thank you so much! 🙌
Good to know I wasn't the only one.
There's something sombre yet solemn in the voice of the Cello, it's hauntingly beautiful and music to my ears. Thank you for playing this piece so wonderfully.
the deep sorrow in the beginning is so spiritual. outstanding interpretation.
Love it! Wednesday and her cello and dancing are burning up the internet. Speaking of, I wonder if you might play the frantic music from the burning statue scene in episode 3 also?
If you’re curious about that, the piece is “Winter”’s first movement from Vivaldi’s Four Seasons :)
Look up "Luka Vivaldi Winter" !
Definitely check out Sol Gabetta’s version or Luka Sulic’s like @@catherines2544 suggested! Love those performances so much, no way I could ever come close to matching them 💛
@@brokenbeing13 the part at the end is Inverno
@@joehl8712 "Inverno" means winter in Italian.
i will never say anything negative about a cello ever.
I am absolutely OBSESSED with Wednesday playing paint it black and I have looked through CZcams to see if any cellist has played that and you are my most favorite one YOU PLAY IT SO PERFECTLY (now I wish i played the cello instead of the violin )
The cello is such a beautiful instrument. It’s like the perfect mesh of a violin and bass
There's always this asian who will absolutely nail this musical piece
I was amazed when I heard her rendition, and you did it exceptionally well here as well. It's an amazing rendition of the song.
Paint it black sounds like it was made to play by a full orchestra. I would love to hear a concerto like this.
여태 커버한 사람들 중에 첼로연주 이사람이 제일 잘함. 한치의 오차도 없음.. 완벽
I've looped this so many times already lol. Beautiful cover as always
Awe thanks so much for those views haha! 🙌
2 days only since I've listened to cello.. that energy and pulling on the strings is creative and playful...
이분 첼로 커버영상은 ㄹㅇ 레전드... 한동안 이 음악에 빠져서 계속 찾아다녔는데 미묘하게 박자가 빠르거나 느려서 조금 애매했는데 이분은 한치의 오차도 없는 박자와 비져나옴 없는 음, 뒤에 잔잔하게 깔리는 배경음악이 지나치거나 너무 없지 않아서 오히려 더 좋은거같다
This really makes me want to play the cello, which I absolutely can’t, but I’m still air celloing like a total dork while listening to this on repeat. Love it so, so much! Thank you for making this :)
Haha yes normalize the air cello! 🙌
The air cello is an iconic first cello
Sure you can, anyone who is physically capable of holding the cello properly can play it, just takes practice, age or anything like that doesn't matter at all.
One thing I did not expect from the series was to become fascinating by cello. I am as musically talented as a dying walrus but my god cellos are cool.
Totally, I'm so glad people have become interested in the cello from this show! 🙏
1:51 this makes my soul drop to my heart
Wow. Your playing is so clean and precise. Very well done.
Best part of my day was definitely seeing that you uploaded this, I loved the show and immediately wanted to learn this on cello
I love the show too! Glad it's getting people excited about cello 😅
By far the best version I've heard of the song so far! I've listened to many versions but i love this one for the creativity and accuracy when playing the song, much love towards you and thank you for this.
Wow that means a lot, thank you! Love seeing different versions of this 🙏
notice every outfit Nicholas wears?, It fits to the song and Reflects to what song he plays honestly it's a master piece
Haha glad you picked up on that, I just call it super lazy cosplay based on what I already have 😅
1:15 i love that part
Vibe Felt like Westworld season 1 while listening to this! But also sounded good in Wednesday 👏🏾👏🏾 🔥
Yes love the versions in both shows! I originally wanted to do more of a mashup but only ended up keeping the intro from the Westworld version
He did the impossible sense FLAWLESS!!!!!
I never noticed that Paint it Black was played. My son pointed it out. I did notice Apocalyptica right off. This gentleman does an awesome job!
You've inspired me.
The first time i saw this was around half a year ago, maybe?
I decided i would teach myself to play it on piano, and I've done it.
Thanks for the inspiration.
Wow good for you, I’m so happy to hear that! 🤗
I have been needing this in my life since I first heard this piece, you are truly brilliant and I need this music in my life
Awe thanks so much! ✌
My favorite cover is one that flows, owns its own colour and shows the whole movement it plays. Yours is definitely it 😄
Awe this means a lot, thank you so much! 💛
A stunning rendition of the song. It's wonderful throughout.
The most intimate instrument. Between your legs as you throw passion into your music. Incredible.
Words cannot describe how beautifully you've played. 😍
Thank you so much! 🥲
I hope this becomes a trend so I can have a whole Playlist of songs like this covered in such manor.
The amount of talent and pure discipline to play this piece deserves the utmost utter respect!!!🤘🤘
The best Wednesday version by far! Definitely loving the new Notes with Nicolas as well.🤗💞
Wow thank you so much 💛 and thanks for checking out the new channel!
@@nicholasdyee I know nothing of cello but your cello playing is beautiful. Thank you for sharing your thoughts on your new channel, very insightful and I learn something new.🤗
so clear and concise, loved it especially the plucking
1:23 this part is so good
The Rolling Stones version of the song is one of my favorite songs ever. Because of certain experiences I had in Iraq, the song means a lot more to me now than it did many years ago when I first heard it. This song will always have a special place in my heart because of the good memories it brings to me during one of the most stressful and difficult times in my life.
Because it is a favorite song of mine, when I found out there were many versions of it coming out because of the Wednesday movie, I have listened to many of them. This is by far the best one yet. You fricking rock, dude.
The passion of the muscian and his instrucment is a intriguing picture to capture
since I saw Wednesday I loved the cello and now I only watch videos of cellos
Haha I love that! 😀
He plays on the Cello like a GOD !
Haha much appreciated, I think this piece just looks harder than it actually is 😅
Wow.. thank you!
So many "professionals" saying it couldn't be done.. and then you smash it out the park.
The cello is such an amazing instrument... thank you!
Something about a cello is just satisfyingly gratifying and just mesmerizing.... I love it !!!!
You did such an incredible job covering this song, this is amazing!
currently stressed out of my mind over exams but your covers always make my days brighter! thanks for the music :)
Awe wishing you the best with exams! 🙏
Excuse my English but … THIS MAN IS BAD ASS!!! I mean the cello almost exploded. This was awesome.
I have never seen someone play so high up the finger board on a Cello, I could never
We are lucky for being able to hear such a beautiful playing for free. Awesome!
That was truly inspiring. The richness of the piece was transcendent. Epic skill sir.
Bro, that sounded so clean. Took me back to some dark days, but worth remembering.
The fact that he remembers the song and how it goes is amazing!!! Keep it up! ❤️
Splendid rendition.
I bought the sheet music, and having so much fun learning this piece. A great job arranging and transcribing it.. Thank you 😃
That's amazing, I'm so glad you're having fun with it 😄
this is the most beautiful thing I've ever heard. Also, it sounds sorta like hip hop in the middle.
It’s amazing how beautiful this song sounds on a cello
I’ve played violin since 3 years old, although this year / last year I started learning cello . Nothing to intense like this but I have asked my teacher if I could ever play this, which one of my friends who has play for maybe like 7 years? Told me that there are lots of finger movements which is understandable. Overall I absolutely love this show. I stopped watching it, but I catch up on all the seasons with my friend 😅. Oh!, and I do play piano. Someday I hope to play somewhat like this if I practice everyday, but I think I would be too busy. I get lessons every 2 days except Saturday and Sunday. I think the whole song is very beautiful, even if it’s rock / metal I still think it’s beautiful. One last thing: my favorite character is Wednesday and Tyler ❤
Wow you're learning a lot of instruments, that's amazing! Wishing you all the best, don't stress yourself out too hard 🙏
@@nicholasdyee i will try, I recently just got my cello tuned because the c string was fully broken and the whole instrument was out of tune. But it was better than bringing it to my orchestra teacher at school back and fourth. I want to be the best at cello but if I’m the Best it would be hard to learn new things. And merry Christmas or happy new year! 🎉
It s farther the best performance of this theme i ve heard or seen. You re a brilliant and talented cellist... Your arrangement of this song may be the most difficult between lots of arrangements... I can deduce it by listening and watching your video. It s true i m just an amateur cello student, but i understand many things i hear (how them must be played) and i know i can t play them... So i can apreciate your brilliant hard work. Bravo!!
as a muslim and Arabian I want to say that ALLAH says in the Quran: O, people! We created you from a male and a female, and We made you races and tribes, so that you may come to know one another. The best among you before Allah is the most righteous. Allah is Knowing and Aware.
and I am glad to find this channel 😊
People in the comment section need to recommend more magical pieces like this ... Ohhh and by the way - you have magic in your hands ❤️ music is the real definition hypnotizm
Incredible. Makes me want to go back to cello.
Ooh glad I could spark that, hope you have a great time if you do pick it up again! 🙌
This is absolutely insane 🔥🔥🔥
ngl this is better than the one they did in the show
Since I am a Stones fan and also love listening to cello, I had to look it up on CZcams after seeing Wednesday. Fantastic job!
1:13 The moment I heard this part... I swooned. Favorite cover of this song/piece.
Beautiful performance Nicholas!
Dude, this is the BEST interpretation of this masterpiece i've ever heard in YT.
Wednesday would give you an applause, but since she can't i am doing it right now. Keep up the good work😊
Wow that means a lot, it’s been cool to see so many cellists playing this 😊
You have proved the internet wrong playing this 100% to the original. So many have said its impossible and it was don't by computer auido...you sir have beat the system. Amazing
Absolutely beautiful! Can listen to you play all day! I have listened to it 10 times already.
I knew this would be a masterpiece of artwork. I hit the like button even before I started watching. Damn! I was so right!
Haha thanks so much for that! 😅
So beautiful!! I love this show and this song. When I first heard it I was thinking "Oh yes! This is the one song I need".
You are the best😉😉
It's so cool how we see how paint it black would actually look if someone actually played it and how good Wednesday faked it...
Cello has the most incredible melancholy sound.
Amazing, epic, congratulations Mr. Nicholas Yee
Omg I heard two people play this and this is one of them! This is really good! Best one I have heard so far! 👌
Perfect, thank you for the many years of practice to publish this masterpiece.
So hard to believe that just a cello playing that. Amazing
This is way more on point than what she did in wednesday. But that should be expected I guess. She practiced for the role. Achieving great success very quickly
I think the cello playing they show in Wednesday is far better than we've come to expect from actors playing cello in movies and shows! Jenna Ortega did a great job for the cello community 🙏
Шикарно! Люблю слушать виолончель и скрипку ❤️❤️💞
Thank you so much! 🙏
Cellos are going to be flying off the shelves. Great rendition!
Amazing....this will always be Wednesday Addams piece...Great job dude!
the scariest part of this song is that it sounds like an etude 😱
