It's hard to bend those piano keys
Haha the pianist looked like he was having the best time of his life. Thats called passion.

you can't feel any other way playing this song
His voice is PERFECT for pink floyd!
This video should have millions of views already! Easily one of the best comfortably numb performances.
The beauty of the harmony , lies within it's simplicity.

best cover iv ever heard
I’ll get ripped for saying this, because I’ve seen the comments about harmonies and musicality from all of them....this is great,..9/10....but honestly feel if Joel had taken the vocals totally on his own, and was allowed to own that song by himself,....12/10.
I started this video and saw some of the complaints in the comments and thought I might turn it off a minute or two into it, but this is actually a really great and different take on the song. I don't think this version needs Gilmour's guitar solos, that's what the original is for. Anyway, great singing and playing here. I love the combination of voices.
That girl can harmonize beautifully. What a voice!
Deserves way more views.

understatement of the year
Not many can play this song and do it epically...and they did it...
You put your print on it. Respect.
the best Comfortably Numb cover
Nice!! I love the backing vocals, especially the girl's.
My God what a beautiful thing! Come play here in Brazil !
I always thought David Gilmour's guitar solos were the keynote of, well, any Floyd song. I can't believe how wrong I was. This is beautiful, and the piano and the harmonizing makes it a lovely interpretation. Being a pianist, I love seeing rock guitar solos tastefully covered, and even though the effect is very different, it's absolutely brilliant

We really appreciate this. So many were furious at us for not re-creating the exact same solo (my favorite guitar solo of all time). Thank you for catching that the difference was intentional.
even without an electric guitar, the song is still BEAUTIFUL!! Great Cover!
That was killer I liked the piano solo too
I remember the first time I heard you guys perform this song live, and was completely blown away. I'm a Pink Floyd fan from WAY back, and VERY picky about anyone covering one of their songs, but this was absolutely brilliant.
2019 Its a nice cover paid tribute to Pink Floyd
Love everything about it. That girl voice makes it so interesting together with main vocalist. Piano solo instead of guitar one so original. Love it. Hope you gonna get succesfull cuz you guys deserve it. ;) Peace

I will always love the original the best but this has totally blew my mind, this is something else. Totally unbelievable.
Wonderful work! I love, love, love Megan Slankard, too! Awesome stuff! xoxo
Perfect!!
With any such timeless, beautiful, near-perfect number as your starting point/original, this would always be a HUGE ask. And, IMHO, you’ve done a great job!!!!
beautiful versión......congrats...
Great cover and interpretation. This definitely stands on its own feet. Well done!

Just discovered this Reno band playing at Mt Rose yesterday. I've heard Eric Anderson before and was impressed...the addition of these other artists is even more impressive! Nice job guys!
GREAT!
I have never heard a more beautiful and original cover of this
Just incredible. Really enjoyed this!
That piano work is top notch
While I long for the hectic master guitar at the end... even after the first note... this version took me on a journey into the depth of the lyrics... to a place I crave and run from. Just brilliant.
downright emotional and amazing. I hope you guys play in CT
Wow. That's all. Just "wow" :)
Saw you perform at a house concert in Santa Maria recently, you opened for Glen Phillips of Toad the Wet Sprocket, and I became an instant fan! The Novelists ROCK!

this is hands down the greatest cover of this song I have ever laid an ear to. 62,168 views is shameful. This is glorious. Thank you for making my night, as I sifted through a bunch of youtube trash to stumble upon this. Keep it up.
