Hi J-14ers!
Shhh, don't tell... but I may have burst out to One Direction's "One Thing" while I was driving or "What Makes You Beautiful" while I was in the kitchen. As much fun as my own renditions are for me (and as painful as they are for anyone who may catch a glimpse!), when a friend posted this One Direction cover video on Facebook, I was completely mesmerized.
Sure it's five guys (not those five guys) playing "What Makes You Beautiful" on a piano -- but they're playing the instrument itself like you've never seen before. And sure enough, when you pull back from the intricacies of what they're doing, it's a pretty gosh-darn amazing version of the One Direction song.
Of course, I still prefer the original with Harry Styles' heartfelt "That's what makes you beautiful" line at the end, but if you've ever played an instrument -- 13 years of piano lessons for me! -- then hopefully you'll get a kick out of The Piano Guys' version of the song.

Can't wait to hear what you think!
