PERFECT - ED SHEERAN (Piano Solo Cover) with a La La Land twist - The Piano Guys

________________________

What do you get when you mix Ed Sheeran's beautiful love song "Perfect" with the cinematography of "La La Land?" You get a Piano Guys video and cover!

"Perfect" is one of our absolute favorite Ed Sheeran songs, and we think it'll become one of yours too! As Jon says "The 6/8 meter lent itself very well to a solo piano version and the inspiration was abundant."

Translation: We love playing this song!

Jon and Steven allowed my then 9-year-old son Conan to open their show with this song on the piano in Portland, Oregon in August 2019. We are all still grateful for them to allow this. Such a wonderful piece and such wonderful Guys.

I find this song absolutely heartbreaking in its perfection. Jon is mourning his daughter's death whilst playing this song for her. You can SEE his pain in this playing. Bravo, Jon. Bravo.

3:10 the buildup to the chorus is absolutely beautiful, and the way he smashes down on the left hand to start the chorus shows the pure emotion behind this cover

My little girl was 3 when she first heard the song sang by TPG. She was so touched she started crying. Now, a year latter, she falls asleep almost every night listening to it. Thank you guys ❤️

Getting married on May 25th and I am walking down the aisle to this song! This is the first song my soon to be husband and I danced to! I cannot wait to see his face when I come walking down that aisle!

[davidlawrence]

I love the way his facial expressions are at the start... just looks around and thinks, everybody is happy and content. Perfect song for a perfect moment. Genuine amazingly talented duo

[davidjonathansmith]

Beautiful arrangement, beautiful music. Our family absolutely loves you guys. Anytime our two-year old daughter hears piano, she yells out "Pi Guys!" Jon, you actually dedicated a song from me to my wife for our 6th anniversary back in 2010...something we'll never forget. We got our tickets to the SLC Christmas concert a few months ago and our kids cannot wait!

[aaishagill]

Listening to the original song now aint giving me that beautiful feeling anymore. You guys just made this beyond PERFECT.

*Very cool! It's the music of the soul!*

Lyrics
I found a love for me
Darling just dive right in
And follow my lead
Well I found a girl beautiful and sweet
I never knew you were the someone waiting for me
'Cause we were just kids when we fell in love
Not knowing what it was
I will not give you up this time
But darling, just kiss me slow, your heart is all I own
And in your eyes you're holding mine
Baby, I'm dancing in the dark with you between my arms
Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favorite song
When you said you looked a mess, I whispered underneath my breath
But you heard it, darling, you look perfect tonight
Well I found a woman, stronger than anyone I know
She shares my dreams, I hope that someday I'll share her home
I found a love, to carry more than just my secrets
To carry love, to carry children of our own
We are still kids, but we're so in love
Fighting against all odds
I know we'll be alright this time
Darling, just hold my hand
Be my girl, I'll be your man
I see my future in your eyes
Baby, I'm dancing in the dark, with you between my arms
Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favorite song
When I saw you in that dress, looking so beautiful
I don't deserve this, darling, you look perfect tonight
Baby, I'm dancing in the dark, with you between my arms
Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favorite song
I have faith in what I see
Now I know I have met an angel in person
And she looks perfect
I don't deserve this
You look perfect tonight

Nothing heals more than music. This is a song I know I am going to remember. The music is so peaceful and calming. Listening to this just made me smile; I closed my eyes and let the soothing notes wash over me. What a beautiful song done by wonderfully talented artists.

[PIRIT]

Jon, you are so unbelievablely gifted...my grandmother passed away a few days ago and your performance has helped me cope in more ways than you could imagine. Thank you for this.

[sunnyonepoet]

It's wonderful to see you back Jon, as much as I love the Piano Guys, it was you and your piano I fell in love with many years ago ... you are a true master of your craft ... the one and only 'Piano Guy'!
You still serenade me during the night when sleeping becomes almost intolerable ... Thank You ... Love you Jon

This is the song I am walking down the aisle too... its so beautiful and now you guys just made it even more perfect. Newfoundland Canada.

[TRM]

After 5 years, I still keep coming back to this one above all other Piano Guys songs.

[alidanesbitt]

Thank you for being such a huge inspiration to me. I am a senior in high school in utah and have been playing your music since I was 11. I own all the piano and cello sheet music and all the album's. I play it everyday. It has helped me get through such a hard year of health challenges that keep continuing. I hope to meet you all some day. Thank you for all the joy and happiness you bring me. I love the piano and cello so much more because of you. Someday I want to be as good as you guys!

2.55-3.55 There is so much passion in it !! Truly Beautiful thing to watch!

[monicarazak]

If this isn't pure love for music, idk what is.

[agavino]

You listen to this not with your ears but with your heart. Beautiful.

[civilizeddelinquent]

Every time I see this mans face, I can feel the heartbreak of loosing his daughter. Time has past but it's a pain that has seemingly endless depth. Feel for him.
