Grace from Boston, here! Thanks, Dr. K, for such an amazing memory. It was a long and frustrating day in Paddington before you turned up, made my day, and blew my mind. I’d give anything to play like that someday! It was such a privilege to witness. For those curious, I wanted to address a few things: 1. I didn’t realize how many cans I had accumulated! 😂 for the wondering, there was a recycling bin a few meters away from that piano. I sort of staggered over and dropped them all in on my way to the platform. I looked like a jackass, but it was an overall success. 2. I’ve had my head shaved for ten years now. I love it and it’s so easy to maintain. For those asking about job interviews: I part my hair in the middle when I want to cover the shaved side! Works like a charm. So, that’s a tip for any other Skrillex impersonators out there looking to feign respectability!) I think I’ve heard almost every joke under the sun about my hair-and truly, I love those, too. So, it’s more than cool if you want to make some fun to that effect (I need a laugh anyways)-just know that nothing you say will EVER top the Irish bloke who told me I should be proud for surviving cancer (I have never, ever had cancer), but that hospital staff should’ve noticed that the chemo only “took” to one side 💀 💀 💀 3. I’m feeding trolls by even mentioning it, I know, but I have to ask that comments about my chest be kept to a minimum. That’s partially because I’m not compelled to explain to strangers why I don’t wear bras to sit on 12 hours of connecting trains, but it’s mostly because ☠️ 🚨 MY EXTENDED FAMILY CAME ACROSS THIS VIDEO AND ARE FORWARDING IT TO EVERYONE I KNOW 🚨 ☠️ I just don’t want, for instance, my Nana stumbling onto an extended hot take about my nipples. Now, I know that practically no one will honor this wish of mine. This is the internet, after all. But, if you were, like… on the fence about weighing in on this topic, this is perhaps something to bear in mind. Also, I’m *very* amused that some found this video worth commenting on to begin with. It isn’t exactly sexy (except, of course, for those tunes 🎵 😎 🎹)! Please let me know if you need some porn recommendations, or something? I don’t have any on hand, but I’m open to looking into it. There are better places on the internet for this content, I promise-you don’t have to do it in the boogie woogie comment section 😶 4. I have to give a huge, awestruck THANK YOU to those of you who uncovered my creative writing blog after watching this video! I’m not sure how on earth that came about, but seeing people engage with my work again has meant the world to me. In recent years, I stopped writing altogether in a sudden crisis of confidence. I miss it all of the time. Some of your comments have been so honest and so kind that I’m inspired to try and start back up again. I would love to share the link in question (for the benefit of any other folks who might be interested in the ramblings of an overly verbose twenty-something with too many interests and not enough serotonin), but I don’t use KZread very often. I’m not sure if pasting links in comments gets them flagged as spam? Anyways, thanks to all of you for tuning into such an unforgettable, hilarious, completely unanticipated moment in my life! I’m wishing you all the best. Now, troll away. GT 🖤

I noticed from your first post your writing skills and left a compliment. It took me 20 years to write one novel -- at least 10,000 hours. If you're not quite happy with something, don't abandon it, rewrite, rewrite, rewrite. All kinds of new avenues open up. You will find yourself tightening the prose to the point it fuses into prose poetry (without forcing rhymes; in fact, a naturally occurring word that rhymes can guide you). You will see in your mind's eye scenes transforming from a grainy black and white photograph to full color. That's when you know you've got it -- and then rewrite again. LOL. All the best.

Hello Brandie

We were once chilling out on the grass across the quay in Sydney, watching the buskers. There was a guy playing a keyboard moderately well and a little kid came along and started talking to him and asked to try... The kid "went off" - he was so good and the crowd loved him. The busker gave up and came and sat beside us. I think the kid collected more cash in 20 minuted than the busker had made all day. When the kid was done, the busker wanted to give him the takings - but the kid was just happy to have had some fun.

Dear Grace!!!Dear Brendan!!! I love you both!!! What do we have: A good pianist and a good singer!!! You, both were excellent!!! Thank you both for the vibrations!!! Lovely!!! 👍👍👍☀️☀️☀️😊😊😊

Grace, I just loved your honesty, warmth, good humour AND, overall, your great musicality with DR. K,,,,,, your name says it all!

My Grandmother taught me to play this song on accordion when I was young. I later went on to the guitar because it was "cooler". I still have my Grandmother's accordions and play them every once in a while.

Grace Tully is so gracious, even when Brendan extends the funny surprise into an ego trip.

Wish you all the best too Grace. Thanks for the great performance and Brendan also :-)

I really like this, I think I have played this about 100 times! What a great memory for Grace to have whilst visiting the U.K. Been over to Boston twice and it's a fantastic city.

It got me up and dancing... Totally awesome 👍💕💕💕💕

As a child, I drove my (classical pianist) father mad singing every verse of this wonderful tragic song….😂😂😂😂. ‘dreadful sorrow, Clementine’ finishes the first verse…..

Like some 25 years ago, when I was still in primary school, we had to learn to sing this song vocal. Brings back a lot of memories. Thanks for sharing~

keep playing Grace!! Your beauty shines through :)

She is what we call a free spirit...so sweet!

Grace perfect timing and location I’m certain this will be a moment you’ll never forget

I came across this last night and literally have been replaying it nonstop. Brandon, you are probably one of the most talented pianist on youtube!. Your ability to connect with almost anyone makes you truly one of a kind. Grace, your surprise and facial expressions make me laugh. You truly were surprised. Definitely go back to writing and follow your passions. You are in Boston and I am just outside Washington DC. Boston is a great city and lots of options for someone as good natured as yourself. Good luck. Brandon, I literally lose sleep listening to all of your videos. Keep them coming.
