Me and My Cello - Happy Together (Turtles) Cello Cover - The Piano Guys

________________________
________________________

Many people ask why Steve is SO HAPPY when he plays the cello. We followed him around with our cameras on his day off. We think we now understand why... :)

**NO INSTRUMENTS WERE HARMED IN THE MAKING OF THIS VIDEO** -- we used a "stunt" cello for these scenes just in case -- and we were really careful out of respect for the instrument. After all the filming, "Jackie" (named after Jackie Chan since he does all his own stunts) only had one minor scratch inflicted by a shopping cart... (this proves the saying that statistically there are more shopping cart accidents than skydiving accidents)

Story behind the song:

"This video is dedicated to all of my music teachers that taught me to have FUN with music -- to let it live and breathe rather than insist it be dead and dissected. As for my other music teachers that didn't teach me to have fun...I'll try to make a video for you some other time." :) --Steven Sharp Nelson

Special Thanks:
The Dotty's for letting us use their Yellow Tandem bike. The Neilsons for the use of their home where we filmed the Disco Scene. Will Stucki for the use of the Bass

_I love the way they went into a buffet with a cello and came out with a double bass XD_

[michaeloffner]

My one hope in life is to find someone who will love me as much as this man loves his cello.

[talynprescott]

My little sister is a cellist and she is over here screaming in terror for the cello, laughing and cringing in fear all at once. Yet she loves the song. :D

[shawnphun]

This proves you can give life to an inanimate object by giving it all the love and care it needs. Literally.

[pandachick]

This is how every musician should feel with their instrument <3

[alexaliona]

i'm not sure how much cuter this could get.

[malindascarborough]

Thanks to everyone for all the great descriptive comments!  I'm blind and can't see this video, but I can surely hear how happy he and his cello are together just by the delightful music they make together! It made me SMILE!

[JKayphD]

So we're not gonna talk about the fact that he literally jumped out of an airplane with his cello??

[malissakerr]

This is my 18 month old son's favorite song/video. He has had to watch it almost every night since he was 6 months old to settle down and go to bed.
He loves Piano Guys!

[nataliehaineses]

the activities that he did with his cello is funny, BUT THE SKY DIVING OMG!😂👌

[lynzioliver-musto]

I'm surprised people need to ask why he's so happy. Wouldn't you be happy if you could make an instrument sound that good??? I'm glad people asked though, or we wouldn't have this video.

[cindyzhang]

They should've put at the end:
No cellos were harmed in the making of this video.. Especially Steve's cello

[RP-ommd]

0:59 I CANT BE THE ONLY ONE THAT NEARLY HAD A HEART ATTACK

[karely]

that akward moment when a cello has a better love life than you do. 

[anneugartechea]

Laughed until I cried! This was my favorite song in the 70's. Please, tell me, no cellos were hurt in this video?!

[Calicatma]

The pen hanging from the string on the clipboard at 3:08 . It's a Pilot G2-07. The best pen in the universe. Now I have another reason to love The Piano Guys

[ItsMeTheHorseLover]

That cello has the best life possible for an instrument!

[stephany]

I absolutely LOVE how at the buffet he comes out with a bass!!! Does anyone else get it??

[laceyroo]

I love the expression on Jon's face every time Steve walks by.

[lulupearce]

This puts the word "dedication" to a whole new level 😄
