Sheet music → Ah, God knows... I am pretty sure, there are many people out there, who haven't watched Suzumiya Haruhi yet, but still recognize this song. Even being more than a decade old, God Knows... is still one of the most famous songs among Anime fans, because the melody is just so unforgettable and catchy. Some may have been waiting for me to do a piano arrangement of this song for years and I couldn't agree more: This song is simply a must-play for any anime pianists - and today is finally the day, where I am uploading it on my Youtube channel! I still remember as it was yesterday when I was watching the 12th episode of Suzumiya Haruhi for the very first time in 2007. When that concert scene came, I have felt an excitement I've never experienced before. The detailed animation of the guitar playing, Haruhi's passion while singing, the dazzling stage lightning, the excited concert crowd, Kyon's reaction, everything. The entire scene was so perfectly pieced together and I think I have rewatched the concert scene more than a hundred times already. It was simply one of the most brilliant moments in the history of Anime. Actually, Suzumiya Haruhi might be the Anime which has kickstarted my interest in Anime in the first place. Back then in 2007, my understanding of Anime was limited to One piece, Dragon ball Z, Digimon etc. But upon discovering Suzumiya Haruhi, my worldview has completely changed. It was so different, so mind-blowingly genius and so much more intriguing, than anything I've ever seen before. Suzumiya Haruhi has made a huge impact on me as a life of an Anime fan and until today, it is still one of my top 5 anime series of all time. Well, before this text is getting too long, I want to say a few words about the piano arrangement itself. It is basically a summary of all the improvised (concert-)live versions I have played in the past, and I tried to make the finalized version as exciting as possible by utilizing different voicings, rhythmical variations and sneaking in some secondary melodies. Basically I wanted to recreate the excitement I've felt when I was watching the 12th episode back then. Every here and there, I also put some surprise moments in the arrangements, let's see if you can spot them all! (*•̀ᴗ•́*)و ̑̑ Alright, after this video I think I will take a pause from Youtube to discover more interesting anime songs for my future uploads. I'll keep you updated on twitter during the meantime, so feel free to follow my twitter! See you next time then!
