wait, what?
yeah that was ,my reaction too
Like I didn't hate playing piano already. :cry:
You have to admit, the Death Waltz is pretty catchy.
the death waltz sounds like a boss battle theme
EDIT after doing abit research this death waltz video is actually a different song called UN Owen was Her

Haha! I know the real name of that song! :DQuote:

If your looking for something that can actually be played, then I'd suggest..

No fair. You edited after I edited mine. CHEATER! :pQuote:

By the way, you might like this. They made a MAD out of it:

It's possibly the funniest (and creepiest) 'Roll out there!
Apparently it takes the equivalent energy of shovelling three tons of coal just to move the keys in Rachmaninov's Third Concerto.
Who said piano players were weedy nerds? :p
Actually the first vid in the OP is an epic fail.
I stopped the first vid when I saw this.

The highlighted frets are the ones played at the same time.
This shows a position that human articulation can achieve in no way.
No way you can open your hand to catch 3 D.
I (but everyone with minimum music knowledge) can write something even harder to be played by a piano roll or a midi.
Hardest thing should be something playable in reality by one highly skilled human.
If you put 2 people to play that stuff, it becomes totally ordinary.
This is actually utterly do-able by using your left hand, right foot, left foot, right hand, and by hitting your head against the keys :) You can also use your tongue if you have trouble getting by.Quote:

We are consistenly pushing the boundaries of "what is possible" ;
But agreed - any piece that requires you to grow an extra arm shouldn't count ;)
Really, either way you slice it, if you have more than one person on the piece of course it's gonna get easier; more hands make lighter work. So in your theory, there cannot be a world's hardest piano song at all then... because any piano song can be played by two people at the same time, whether intended or not (even something as simple as "Chopsticks" or "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star" could be played with two people at the keys).
However, as much as you'll protest to this song due to the placement of the keys, I've seen people do this solo before. It's from the same game that "U.N. Owen Was Her?" came from (Mountain of Faith), and it's called (coincidentally) "Native Faith".
The proper way that it's played is twice all the way through.

Ok, but I want to see a real man playing
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oUrosfQrvuE
for example...
Ya know, someone actually recreated that Circus Galop song with the music sequencer in LBP2?
Whoa guys! I see you don'y understand somethng here: that was Synthesia. I used if before, and it's like LBP2's music sequencer. You don't necessarily play the whole song yourself in one run! :p
But if you want proof of a hard song being played (especially one from Touhou), then watch this:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=itClDyhsxZo
it's one of my favorite songs in the game, and the guy playing it demonstrates the difficulty of it as well. :)
EDIT: On the subject of Synthesia, listen to this:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-CQ0I7S19jw
It's now my new favorite Synthesia piece! :D
and for the last part you can jump on the keyboard horizontally-youtube commentQuote:
