While researching tunes I've never tried before because - group harmonies, I started following this CSN tune, and all the covers.

This one is not the best, but it IS mesmerizing.

Ok, this might seem weird, but this is what hit me for the second video. How the heck were they able to have the piano so quiet relative to everything else? Was it simply because the lid was open so no sound box resonance or whatever? Or can you just play a piano quietly. I guess, now that I think of it, you should be able to play it quietly. I just didn't think it could be played that quietly.
