Guest howyousawtheworld Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 A really good piano song is October by U2 and a very beautiful one as well from their 2nd album of the same name.

doritji Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 Nice idea for a thread. I remember visiting a museum in Berlin and there was this beautiful piano playing in the background of a documentary playing there. I watched it 3 times at least just becuase of the piano song! Never gonna find out what that was though :( anyways, listen to some Ben Folds. He's one talented piano player. It does include singing, but rest assure, he can sing aswell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Technicolor Sparks Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 I can definitely recommend some classical/baroque/etc stuff! :wideeyed: You HAVE to listen to Vocalise. It's Rachmaninoff...who doesn't love Rachmaninoff? :shrug: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
