When She Loved Me- Piano Cover



So I joined the ranks....I uploaded a cover onto YouTube. Long have I debated putting something up on the website... not counting the Smash Brothers combo videos I uploaded for a friend..

The song was bouncing around my head for weeks. It's from Toy Story 2. I was surfing the tubes one night, and I came across someone covering the song the cowgirl doll sings about how her owner left her. And just like that, I was hooked. I had to learn it...no matter how depressing it was.

So I went with a friend to the chapel at my school and recorded this. It's on the Baldwin grand piano inside the main chapel, which gets great acoustics that you really can't hear on the recording.

I was especially pround of the section around the 1:00 mark. Made those chords up myself! :) I was trying to learn the song, and I ended up stumbling upon those chords... there's a very jazzy, Charlie-Brown-Christmas feel to them that I really liked, so I threw out the original chords and used those.

Check it out and be sure to comment! I may put up more in the future! Let me know if I should!
