Damn. There’s a few songs that evoke the memory of Tom Brier. I guess I shouldn’t say it like that, AFAIK, Tom is still alive, just not well. He got in a car accident a few years back and hasn’t been able to play piano since.
Who is Tom Brier? Probably one of the best improv ragtime pianists to ever tickle the keys. This man could site read anything and turn it into a ragtime masterpiece, all in real time, before your eyes.
Nyan Cat was the only one that gave him any trouble. And he still kills it

Tom Brier - Nyan Cat
That was a very impressive video. It honestly doesn’t seem like it gave him any trouble at all.
If you see the others you might notice that he had to slow himself down to get into Nyan Cat. Most other tunes he’s basically a player piano.
