There were no other reviews on this, so I was kind of worried that this app might not have his song on it, but it does! Instead of having to go to YouTube, you can watch this cute kitty play the piano. It's the original video split into his first song and his second. If you like Keyboard Cat, then I recommend this app!🐱
