To the Moon - Piano 'For River' (Johnny's Version)

My version of Johnny's version of 'For River' on the Piano.
I love the original composition so this cover is basically the same but I added a little extra bit to the beginning and the end for my own personal interpretation.

As some have pointed out, the original song ends on a missing note and can be interpreted as a representation of a major plot point of the story. I added those extra notes because I wanted to give my interpretation and wrap up the story in my head :)

Original Composer: Kan Gao
From 'To The Moon' ... One of the best stories I've experienced

32 year old man, and I cry every time I hear this song played.

It's been 3 years since I left my last comment. I gotta say. I STILL come here to listen to this... and I still love this game to death.

Yeah, I actually feel the same way about the unresolved ending. But for me personally, whenever I played I found I just had to finish it off! Maybe it's because I wanted there to be an ending for the song, to end the story of Johnny.
Plus it was also an excuse to add the little 'ding' at the end which I wanted to represent the star in the sky which has meaning to the story haha :)

[Decaticon]

i cant explain how happy you made me when i finally heard the last notes

[gustavonogueira]

That last note made me feel like everything is finally in peace again

Bravo, To the Moon is one of my favorite games of all time. I call it crying in reverse.

Wow! Thank you for 100, 000 views! I never thought this cover would get so much attention. Thank you for all the nice comments sorry if I haven't gotten back to your questions, I dont really come on here much but it's been so sweet reading your thoughts on my performance! I've never experienced such a nice atmosphere on youtube :) Thank you all again!

[GuiItyUniverse]

The best version of this song right here.

[Iwantsanta]

Much Respect to you for finishing this song but at the same time . The last note wasn't left out intentionally . Johnny never did make it to the moon . The last missing note was there to signify that :D . His journey was almost complete .

[jaskahoran]

You played it so perfectly. I got goosebumps all over. This is the best cover I've seen so far

[TheMarioSP]

How a song so simple can be so beautiful?

[MegaChickenfish]

It's so soft I could just float away...

[Kazuha]

That is just wonderful! Yours is the best version I heard so far and is one of my favourites! Well done!

They can see all the other lighthouses out there, and they want to talk to them. But they can't, because they're all too far apart to hear what the others are saying. All they can do…is shine their lights for afar. …So that's what they do. They shine their lights at the other lighthouses, and at me.
