Chords for Rush E 3 | Pianist Reacts

So, five years ago, a small channel called Sheet Music Boss released a piece [Bm] called Rush E.
There was a [C] small debate in the comments as to whether [D] this impossible piece could be played on the piano,
and [C] although that piece of music wasn't [E] successful at all,
another small YouTuber called Mark Rober [D] decided to get his [G] self-playing piano to play Rush E.
And this is where I come in,
because I did a reaction video to Mark Rober's piano playing Rush E.
And [D] since then, obviously, [E] Rush E has become a piece of internet [C] history,
which led Sheet Music Boss to make a second version of this piece.
And so, I reacted to Rush E [D] 2, in which Sheet Music Boss [D#] decided to get in the [Am] comments themselves.
And I also did a YouTube short playing Rush E 2 myself.
_ [F] _ _
[E] And now, we have Rush E 3, and [D] apparently, I, along with some other creators, make an appearance in the intro for this video.
So let's get into it.
_ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _
[Am] _ The [Em] world's hardest piano song, Rush E.
[F] Rush E.
Rush E.
[Am] Rush E.
Is [F] this Rush E?
Rush [E] E.
Aw, there he is, the stuff of legend, Sheet Rush E!
[Am] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ E.
_ [C] Ahh!
[F#] _ _ Ahh!
_ Stop [A#] it!
It's time to stop!
[D#] _ [G#] Noise. _
[C] _ _ Here we go again.
[E] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Am] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [E] _ _
[Am] _ _ _ _ _ [D#] _ _ _
[B] _ _ [G#] _ _ _ _ _
[E] It's interesting that they start with chords rather than single notes because obviously
in the original you get_ _ _ _ _ _ _
[E] It's always nice how they take that one simple melody and change it and do so much with it.
Also a really interesting thing and a fun fact about this piece_
It's gonna be [B] so much fun!
It's gonna be so much fun!
Is it's called Rush E because it's based around the note E.
However, it's actually in the
key of A minor.
It [F] was not that fun.
[B] And I remember when I did my first reaction to Rush E in Mark Rober's video, I was quite
confused as to why it was called [Am] Rush E when it was in A [G#] minor.
Because you would just assume it's probably gonna be in E minor or E major.
And it's kind of interesting that I've never seen anyone else mention that.
Maybe I'm the only one that was expecting it to be [E] in E.
_ _ [Am] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [B] _ _ [Am] _ _ [E] _ _
_ _ _ [Am] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [G#] _ _ _
[F] _ _ _ [A#m] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [A#m] _ _ _ _ [D#m] _
[F] Okay now we've changed key and we're in Bb minor and Bb minor doesn't even have an E
in the key.
_ [E] _ I really like the stuff that they're doing with the rhythms.
You're getting this really [A#] _ bizarre_
_ _ _ It's giving me kind of Latin vibes but they're trying to squeeze a load more notes into the rhythm.
[A#m] _ _ _
_ [D#m] _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [F#m] _ _ _ _
_ [Bm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Em] _ _ _ _ [F#] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ This has [D#] definitely got a lot more of a classical music flavour than the other two did.
It's kind of sounding [Em] like this. _ _
_ _ [G] _ _ _ [F#] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Bm] _ _ _
_ _ I got a little bit carried away there but you get the idea.
It sounds quite classical.
Particularly with the types of chords that they're using. _
_ [Em] _ _ [C#] _ _ _ _ _
[Em] _ _ [F#] _ _ [Bm] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[F#] _ _ _ [Bm] _ _ _ _ [Bm] _
_ _ [Em] _ _ _ [Bm] _ _ _
[F#] _ _ _ [Bm] _ _ _ [Em] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Bm] _ _ _ [F#] _ _
[D] _ _ [B] _ _ _ _ [Bm] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [C#] _ _ [A] _
[F] I mean it's so fascinating because we're in B minor now so most of this piece hasn't been
centred around E in any way.
What the hell is going on you [G] guys?
But also this one out of the three versions of Rush E that there are, it definitely feels
the most creative.
Okay [Bm] _ _ _ _ [F] _ _
[Cm] _ _ _ _ _ [Fm] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [C#m] _ _ _ _ [F#m] _ _
[C#m] _ _ [C#m] _ _ now we're getting into some actual black midi type stuff with all of the note art and
things like that.
It feels like up until this point the focus was really on how it sounds and now the focus
is more on the visual. _ _
_ _ [C#] _ _ _ _ [G#] _ _
_ _ [F#m] _ _ [G] _ _ [G#] _ _
[C#m] _ _ [N] _ _ _ _ _
Well I've got to say out of the three of them that one's definitely my favourite.
It definitely does sound more creative and like they were using more interesting chords
and key changes and things.
Or maybe that's just me misremembering Rush E 2 and Rush E 1.
But definitely let me know what you thought of Rush E 3 in the comments and if you want
to see my reaction to Rush E 2 then check out this video and I will see you [N] there. _
