Pigs, this was the most challenging cover for me to arrange, practice, and perform yet! It seems so simple at first, has a lot more going on than first meets the ears, and maybe you could instinctively feel that. I wanted it to be good and by the end of it I was literally choking up so hopefully I did my job! Thank you for your patience, and THANK YOU for helping me reach 100 Patrons and changing my life!When I do my full analysis video, I will arrange a piano reinterpretation that's more improvisational and impressionistic but I wanted to stay more faithful to the original for this one.

"And All That Could Have Been" piano cover for my 100 Patrons

Pigs, this was the most challenging cover for me to arrange and perform, and I put more time and work into it than any other cover by a long shot. I wanted it to be good and by the end of it I was choking up so hopefully I did my job. It's an unfamiliar key for me but more than that, this song, which seems so simple at first, has a lot more going on than meets the ears. So thank you for your patience, and THANK YOU for helping me reach 100 Patrons and changing my life!

Your dynamics and application of a rubato style to this really did a great service to an amazing song. A heartfelt "bravo".

🙏 Thank you! I'm glad you liked it.

This was amazingly beautiful. Thank you so much for doing this. From the gentleness at 1:45 to the heaviness at 3:40, you could feel so much emotion from the piano. Thanks again😊

Unbelievable - it's accurate enough to be a cover only what you did is actually uplifting :D

You're wonderful. "And all that could have been" is my favorite song he released in the first era of NIN. Still is the swansong of a period. Before getting his life together. I listen to it often. Thank you for this. Again. I would love to add this to my NIN playlists. :)

ixi music

Thank you! I will keep that in mind.

All those familiar pains and sorrows associated with this song came back. Thank you for so beautifully arranging them. You're amazing.

Been watching you for a few months after the youtube algorithm sent you my way. Been re-obsessing with NIN recently, now that I'm older really just blown away by his creativity and song construction. Love your breakdowns and they are especially helpful now that I'm making my own music using logic. Just found out about your patreon today so joined up. Thanks again.
