Try this: Better Man

For most of the Pop Piano songs heard on AA, you should be able to search Amazon for "Piano Tribute Players" along with the Artist and Song Title to find it

We had some "elevator" type music playing w/waterfall display on Flight 1471 (MCO-DFW) last weekend during boarding and disembarking.

Let me add a song that appropriately describes much of the music selection played upon landing; Misery by Maroon 5

Boarding music

Was listening to the piano version of the boarding music on an AA flight yesterday. My daughter is learning piano and plays by ear pretty well. Would love to get a copy so she can learn to play them. Anyone know where/how to get the selections? Provided they are available.

On iTunes or Spotify, you can rather easily find numerous albums of top-40 and current hits for piano. That's all AA is playing, pop music.

I'm not sure where to buy the music, but you can at least maybe identify the exact tracks. There's a consolidated thread on boarding music where the last few posts may be helpful: <this thread>

Hi! I've read through the whole thread but didn't see an answer to what piano music was playing (on a DFW-SFO flight and return) during the standard boarding video with the waterfalls, clouds, etc. It's possible this was pop music, but it didn't sound like it, and it was the same music on both flights and the only music played while the flight boarded -- not a series of tracks of "pop piano" as on channel 12 in the in-flight system.

Any leads on this? It was a nice relaxing tune. I could post a very badly recorded audio clip of it where you could just make out the piano if that would help. Thanks to anyone with information.

check here for the pop piano songs:

I think most just link to Amazon to purchase there.

I am trying to find it as well. It is stuck in my head. Does anyone know what song it is?

Anyone have particularly strong opinions on AA's music? I'm writing about it for a magazine. Feel free to message me if you'd like to sound off on songs you like, don't like, etc.

The quality isn't great, but here's the piano track on boarding that I was trying to identify:

I don't think it's just a piano version of some random pop song. They were playing it on several different flights while showing pictures of clouds, waterfalls, and so on.
