The first time anyone made a pink Floyd song longer than the original.
Elwood Kuelgen you should listen to the live version of fat old sun, live at BBC, you'll know it's the right one when you see a black and white pic of Gilmour
hahaha I gave up after the first 2nins
The Knark Dight of course pink floyd did that with almost every song they played live, i can say that every live performance by them is better than the studio version
First time I see a cover longer than original and I love it
Lol and they would make a song the whole album echoes ish haha
Please get a cover out of every song on Dark Side. The world needs it!
yesssss 😭😭😭😭
Snake Eye a four hour cover of all of Dark Side would be the best
At the very least time.
He did breathe. Would be interested to see how he tackles Eclipse.
Rabbit souri did it
I remember being in my bed with my boyfriend in our first night together and we were listening to your covers, and when we heard this, it felt so magical that we still remember that moment nowadays.
Josh - I've been playing piano since I was 3, but I've never had that laser focus. I switched instruments several times (and hobbies) but I always go back. As a kid I used to figure out songs by ear and make little arrangements, but as I got older, and more discerning, my self criticism became crippling. In 2011 before embarking on a a months long trip abroad I decided to face my biggest fear and host a solo concert. I did an arrangement / mash up of my favorite Pink Floyd songs including this one that was well received. It still took several years for me to take piano seriously (I decided I needed to be in school to practice) so I moved to New York and majored in it. Regrettably about a year before I graduated I became disabled with a chronic illness and I've been recovering ever since. I recently started playing again, albeit only in little bits due to my condition, spurred by a fellow musician's encouragement. I was googling songs to learn and came across your channel. My biggest influences and favorite composers are also Bill Evans, Debussy, and I'm a huge Floyd and Radiohead fan. It might sound like I came here to blab on about myself but ACTUALLY I just felt an impulse to share how connected I feel to your music and taste and touch! Your covers are mesmerizing and deeply personal. I can feel the meditative nature of your playing. Channeling some Kenny Werner zen. And also, those chord changes are to die for. Thanks and can't wait to get through all your videos.
Hi Lilli, thanks for the kind words and for sharing this. If you have a second, flick me an email to hello at joshcohenmusic dot com ✌️
Josh Cohen will do!!
I would love to see you’re solo concert 😲🥰
@Lilli L....I am a little late here, but wishing you the very BEST!!! God bless you, Sweet Heart!
Love how you always start off with improvisation and gradually fade into the piece you're doing so that we have to listen for it. Beautiful!
Genie in the bottle: "You have one wish..." ; Me: "Playing the piano like Josh Cohen!"
This is haunting ... mesmerizing. I listen to it often. Thank you for sharing your great gift with the world, Josh.
You're welcome, Ranjit. Thanks for watching ✌️
Your version is great too!
@@varunbhattacharyya9356 thank you!
I love your version too, Ranjit. These are both terrific performances.:)
@@burthorton1867 Thank you very much!
Oh no, Im all out of Pink Floyd puns. Have you ever considered doing a Led Zeppelin cover? I have High Hopes for that
liar
I can't really think of any Led Zeppelin puns, but Hey Hey What Can I Do?
YourPalCal it's nobodies fault but mine that I can't think of any led Zeppelin puns
YourPalCal (not a pun comment) seriously though, him doing the battle of evermore on piano would be fucking awesome
Rain Song would be amazing
I saw Pink Floyd in concert 4 times. If I got to the concert and found out you were there instead of them, I would not be disappointed.
My ears sends their best regards for you sir.
The word "Talented" is not even close to describe how wonderful you are.
Thank you for the notes
4:20 That transition was EPIC!!
Smooth af
This just blows me away!!
'Any Colour You Like' is my absolute favourite Pink Floyd Song, and would love it if you covered it!
Man, you have an amazing way of capturing the true essence of the song, I´m sure Rick Wright is smiling wherever he is!
This is one of the greatest covers ever. The meandering beginning and they way you introduce the main theme is so cool. The overhead angle is great because it shows how often you're reaching beyond a full octave. Everything sounds to rounded out! Then at 9:08 is my favorite... when you go back into the verse part it just gets magical. The little runs you're adding are soooo crunchy!!!!! I already hum them in my head while listening to the original version :) Thanks so much for the great content I listen to your videos everyday!
+Anthony Harris Thanks so much, Anthony. Glad you enjoyed it! 😃
34 people are them
This made me laugh..

I heard this a few months ago and I had a yearning to play piano again after years just concentrating on my guitar. Ive been practising this song nearly every day, and even though I'm not quite at this level I am amazed at how far I've progressed! Which makes me appreciate how good this cover is... I'm not sure if perfect exists but if it does this is about close as one can get. Thanks for sparking my passion again ❤
You’re most welcome ✌️
I wish you rented the studio apartment above me so I was forced to listen to your playing all day! Sublime!
Your covers are really amazing ! I hope you will keep making Pink Floyd covers because they are perfect.
If I may make a request, maybe "Brain Damage" (+"Eclipse" ?) next ?
Yess that would be amazing, I would also love to see you cover wish you were here :3
A Medley of Dark Side of the Moon would be Legendary
Yes yes yes !!!!!
love how you create the mood first, then build the parts from that.
I do not know what to say. There are no words to convey the feeling that comes from hearing this wonder
This a perfect performance of a truly mesmerizing song, executed by a true professional and musical prodigy. What a time to be alive and be able to witness such a beautiful piece of art.
I always have the feeling that I'm hearing the birth of each songs that you play. That's wonderful
I come here publicly to apologize. I probably have miss clicked or bumped in the dislike button and for the one year I listen this music it has been a dislike.
I DO NOT DISLIKE THIS AT ALL.
Thanks for calming me down when my anxiety hits. You are an angel.
When I cannot listen to your fingers, on the Piano, I can still hear you in my head....... Well done.....
IMPRESSIVE! Pink Floyd is the G.O.A.T. You really did the song justice.
Thanks, Eric ✌️
I think 'Maggot Brain' would fit with your style of playing. It would be interesting to hear on a piano.
Good one. Although I might prefer Frusciante's "Before The Beginning"!
or wayne, would be interesting how that sounds on piano
oh yessss indeed
This is the best thing that I saw in youtube in years.
I had trouble bridging the prelude into the main piece, but I loved everything from the gradual transition into the normal melody and on from there. One of my favorite covers from you
Simply impressive to see him navigate between the notes and hear with astonishing beauty how within that chaos the path of us and them that we all know is traced, spectacular, sublime, beyond the ineffable.
The way all the chords are mixed and smoothly you convert the song in a perfect beat is just too much to ask. Like life was all convoluted tangled up and slowly all the knots opens up and at the end it's a smooth rope
Keep the Pink Floyd coming!
My favorite Floyd song! Beautiful.
Absolutely stunning! One of my favorite pieces of music just got better.
Wow. Goosebumps!
I am possessed by this mystery. So beautiful.
Sonder
Wow, that intro was breathtaking. Wonderful interpretation of a beautiful piece of music.
Thanks so much, Carl. Appreciate the support ✌️
This is truly a wonderful piece of art!!! Just Beautiful, and breathtaking!!!
You are one of my (very few) favorite persons in the world. Talent and soul into an art. You, my friend, are special! Thanks for the music
Wow you're very talented thank you for sharing this with me my dad and I share a love for music and Pink Floyd. You made my day
Please Josh wish you were here or comfortably numb!! :-).Great work
I know I have finally found the best CZcams channel ever because there is a 16 minute long piano cover of Pink Floyd.
So Great Josh! Thank you - one of my favorites! Beautifully played.
I have always loved this. And I am talking back to the old bong days - like way back when the song was new. I believe you have found the center of it - all about the chord progressions. Wonderful to listen to - especially late at night. This was like the last vinyl album on the turntable after almost everyone else had passed out. And it's like a memory that has no right to still be there. Guys of a certain age - can you relate? Someone with the skill - please do a brass version of this! Big majestic chords building with all the harmonics - it could be so wonderful! Even at this length, it seems it could go much longer. Oh, I can hear that glorious sax from the original but it begs for more. This is one of those melodies that builds and builds and never wants to release.
Astonishing.
More please.
Dude! This is the most amazing piece I've heard thus far.
Love this one!! Instead of transform it into a piano version, you put your own thought and style in it. It's the reborn of this song!❤
Pink Floyd is my love affair! I get goosebumps when I hear you playing. Thank you sir!
My heart its so full right now with all these pink floyds covers, i need to play it on the public piano of my city
Amazing cover as usual, I'll definitely have to share your Pink Floyd covers with my friends because they're just too beautiful to describe
One of my fathers favorite jams. Ty for this post. ❤
Us (us, us, us, us) and them (them, them, them, them)
And after all we're only ordinary men
Me
And you (you, you, you)
God only knows
It's not what we would choose (choose, choose) to do (to do, to do)
Forward he cried from the rear
And the front rank died
And the general sat
And the lines on the map
Moved from side to side
Black (black, black, black)
And blue (blue, blue)
And who knows which is which and who is who
Up (up, up, up, up)
And down (down, down, down, down)
And in the end it's only round 'n round (round, round, round)
Haven't you heard it's a battle of words
The poster bearer cried
"Listen son", said the man with the gun
There's room for you inside
"I mean, they're not gonna kill ya
So if you give 'em a quick short, sharp, shock
They won't do it again. Dig it?
I mean he get off lightly, 'cause I would've given him a thrashing
I only hit him once! It was only a difference of opinion, but really
I mean good manners don't cost nothing do they, eh?"
Down (down, down, down, down)
And out (out, out, out, out)
It can't be helped that there's a lot of it about
With (with, with, with), without
And who'll deny it's what the fighting's all about?
Out of the way
It's a busy day
I've got things on my mind
For the want of the price
Of tea and a slice
The old man died
Thanks for posting the lyrics!!! One of my all-time favorite songs!!!
Never ever checked out any video this fast...Most soothing track by Pink Floyd..Thanking for an elegant cover as always..
Thanks for this.... It's just magic! I heard this video a hundred times!
Absolutely mesmerizing...

Absolutely Stunning
Pink Floyd's got the highest music level in the art rock world. Nice cover
Wow, I'm quite impressed, man... Sounds truly mesmerizing, and not because of song, but because of the way you saw it and expressed. Really cool...
Wow.. outstanding talent
Fantastic reinterpretation of a classic ... Thank you very much for sharing
Merci pour partager ce beau moment musical 🎹

Fantástic !
Beautiful!
Wonderful, thank you, you are great
You did it again Josh. Great cover as always!
Aerial... I love it!
Im seriously impressed !!
Once again Rick Wright would be proud !!
While you're into prog, I definitely recommend King Crimson if you haven't heard them, especially Epitaph or In the court of the crimson king
or 21st Century Schitzoid man
YourPalCal Yeah that's a favourite as well, but I feel like the others would work better as piano covers... but you never know!
Boomplan8 Or Islands
Matte Kudasai

Those Pink Floyd covers are just glorious, I'm transported to other place while I smoke in the window every night
