I'd like to apologize for making extra threads about the song, but I wanted the first post to have the downloads without any trouble. ;)

 

I'm a sub novice when it comes to piano, so instead of playing the music out, I put it all down in Finale and then exported it as a midi. I converted the midi to an mp3 in Garageband. Since there's no way of knowing the key, I used C Major for the sake of ease. There's two tempos, 70 bpm and 120.

 

It's obviously not the whole song, and it's all chopped up because the wallpaper cuts off in the middle. But it's better than nothing! :laugh3: Hope everyone enjoys! :)

120 bpm http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?jyim3ijbmhi

 

Edit: Oops! Somehow I didn't notice the peddle wasn't down for half the song. Excellent testing I suppose. :stunned: I would suggest redownloading if yours sounds choppy. Sorry.

Thank you!!!!

thanks a lot :D

it sounds good

How do you know what Postcards From Far Away sounds like? Have you heard it?

 

EDIT: Sorry, just seen the post about the widget section and the wallpaper etc. Ignore me.

i cant find the original, where is it?

THANKS :)

Thank you very much! Sounds really great! Hope it becomes a b-side! :)

^ Yeah!!! Hey, cris

 

Are you still going to justin site? :D

Is this song from the VLV sessions? Thanks for the song! :)

Thank you, sounds amazing! I like the faster one better, but both are good. I really hope it gets released as a b-side or something.

bump,

 

Thanks Howell.

Nice work. Thanks for the effort!:D

Thanks! :D Makes much more sense the way you're playing it than when I tried to stumble through it.

 

So is this officially the first Coldplay song we've had covers of before any of us ever even heard it? :wacko:

09 album maybe?

i just played this on the piano actually using the notes from the image and it sounded very nice. some notes sounded a bit strange and some were very hard to actually play (chords were hard to reach) but its still a beautiful song. i'm guessing whoever printed the music (presumably chris) forgot to write a flat or two :P

love it Thanks!

where are people discussing this??

Ohh thanks for the link Aleja! I wouldn't have spotted that in the Strasbourg thread.

oh MAN!

 

i really hope that it is postcards from far away, and that it gets some really great lyrics!

 

but did chris ever say that that's what it was? how do we know?

Beautiful:flutterby::flutterby:

the song doesn't have any lyrics though sounds beautiful

Amazing what Chris capable of when's by himself with a piano for a while. His best displays of musicianship shows up thn, that's how we got careful where you stand, see you soon, amsterdam, a ghost, harmless, I bloom blaum, and now postcards from far away. I'm liking this more and more, especially the high bit three quarters through it sounds almost debussy-ish.

it chills you out indeed

i wonder if somebody can upload the video tutorial of this song........... :cool:
