Most artist follow the feeling of the music with lyrics. The music projects a specific mood and a "story" which is why it's awesome. The void of lyrics leave it open for them to interpret the art and relate it however they wish.

That's why Leonard Cohen works. Best musician ever.
I find it awesome that he is playing all of this modern music on piano to I'm assuming (from the all gray hair crew) the older generation. It's really a testament that music is beautiful in all forms. They may not have listened to the original but this absolutely beautiful and there is no doubt they are enjoying it, whether or not they know the original.
The moment when 70 year olds discover that metal can be beautiful music: priceless....

Metal is the closest genre to classical music.
Mr. Davis is a very gifted pianists! Thank You!
Absolutely Beautiful. I felt this in my soul. This is how music should feel. You are amazingly talented.
This is great, respect !
No, it's at the home of music reviewer Kathy Parson's in Florence, Oregon. For some reason, a lot of seniors came to the show, and took up the first two rows. There's lot's of young people too, but just not on camera here :-)
This crowd is out of control!!!
Yup, it's a half-step down from the album, E-flat minor. Metallica had often performed it live a half-step lower (in their case by tuning the guitars down).
"I'm gonna cry,. such emotion, so much feeling and dynamics,. I felt every nuance,.. Such a roller coaster of emotions flooding through my veins,. "Who is this song by young man?" "METALLICA!!!,. "HOLY JESUS',. said the elderly woman in the front row,..
Master of Piano.
Scott D Davis, you are a beautiful and talented artist. You are also an amazing human. Much love and respect from Canada
He's one the best pianist everrrrrrrrrrrrrr
No words can describe - absolutely AMAZING!
you played so fluidly.
Yeah, I told them it was Metallica, and there were plenty of younger people at this show too, but didn't arrive as early and so weren't in the first two rows. Still, before the show was over they were all wanting more Metallica, it was great!
truly a genius
Scott surely does have a sensitive and thoughtful soul
I love this guy and his ability to play the piano.... WOW!! one of my favourite songs in my favourite instrument, ROCK ON!!
Beautiful
Truly beautiful piece and played perfectly. Enjoyed hearing it much.
This one is so good it gives me the chills! Great performance!
Did they realize that they were listening to Metallica ?! Fucking Metal Rock Awesome!!!!!
Very very very wonderful !!!!! respect !!!!
Incredible...amazing..... just beautiful...
I've only recently (in the last 2 months) started trying to teach myself this piece on the piano, and I've got a long way to go. I love your playing of The Unforgiven. It's so smooth and natural, sounds effortless. Fantastic performance. I love your personal touches on it. The middle section of this recording is especially brilliant.
It's great! great music and great piano playing!
Scott, you are really awesome... and of course, a metallica's song played in piano or any other musical instrument, is a delight at different levels; one more way to hear the great chords of a great band...long life to Metallica..!
This is AMAZING!
It sounds as great as the interpretation of Apocalyptika !! Good job
Um clássico do metallica, sem dúvidas es de arrepiar essa incrível perfomance. Parabéns, tens um belo talento!

Suddenly, during the solo they stood up and began banging... yeah!

Seven people who thumb-downed this . . . hmmm . . . even if they don't like Metalica, surely they can appreciate the marvelous piano tune in classical style . . . or may be they don't like classic piano also!
You have an amazing talent. I wish Ive learnt piano, but Im 42 not and its too late. Beautiful.

just amasing. what else can i say?
Your hair is a lot better now !!! Love ur style btw :}
It would probably make me cry to hear this live on a good piano. So awesome. I love all of his stuff. His original stuff is even better! Metallica does lend itself well to this type of interpretation, though.
magnifique
Scott - you god!!!
and this is why metallica sounds so good on any instrument
is this at an old folks home just wondering...this song is awesome especially on a piano cheers mate
Awesooooome
very good, sir. ☺
I think I'm in love :)
Very well
omfg! i love ist so much! and it´s funny that the people listen to it XD and like it XD
Respect.
dude thats soo metal! hah rock on.
This is pretty bad ass
Hola. Como consigo esta partitura?
which means that UNFORGIVEN is an AWESOME Song. =]
Шикарно
Its to say, no matter what context....Metallica have produced many musical masterpieces!
VERY GOOD SINCRONIZATION !
I actually think this version eclipses Scott's studio version of this track. The piano sounds "warmer" and I think his playing is more raw/emotional. Studio versions sometimes suck the life out of the performance.
Holy crap, that's good. Where are your CD sales links?
As a 21 year old fan of Metallica NEW BLOOD JOINS TH EARTH, AND QUICKLY HE'S SUBDUED
Wow the oldies listens to heavy metal. And they don't know it.
those old people dont even know that this is METAL. they were probably like, that is one good boy. his music was so pretty.
Fucking great!
Big hands... uauuu!!!!
wooohh thatss nice ^_^ do you also do aerosmith,eagles,airsupply,bread?
Grannytallica...!!! hell yeah @davewayne
can i have the shets of this ??
me too man
These old folks have no clue what he's playing. They went to the retirement living room at 3 PM expecting to watch the Young and the Restless as usual on tv but that guy was there instead. BUT he does a quite amazing job. KUDOS!
@anthonyroofing ROFL! I was thinking about the same thing!
now they have
But is has one of their best solos in it.
I wish I could play like this.
Those people don't even understand what the song is. When my generation gets there, Metallica will be what we listen to, and we won't have a clue what's being played for us.
That's exactly what I thought while watching it. These old folks are probably not even aware that they are listening to Metallica. Had they known, they would probably not want to listen to it thinking it's a horrible piece of music ;)
i hope they had their hearing aids turned up so they can hear it lol. its like "sorry my hearing aid was off, can you play it again?" lol
7 People didn't hear the true beauty of the notes.
Those old people where just mindf**ked!
Florence OR? You from there?
