"my immortal" makes me cry like a whimpering baby .. :( ..
but yeah yeah .. my immortal is an easy song .. it's like 6 keys repeated over and over again ..
but i agree with the above .. since you're a beginner .. start with the older coldplay songs .. the slower ones .. of course like 'yellow' or maybe 'trouble' .. |
thank THA LORD you didn't mention that group. How embrassing :whip: It's good like this.. I was thinking "My Immortal" was some Coldplay song and naturally others will think the same. :D |

I play piano a lot but never use tabs (clasically trained :p) I hope you've got access to a piano to practise on. If so, just try fiddling around- sounds like you already have some musical training so you might surprise yourself.Play around til you find what suits you best - might be the melody or the chord basses. Try other tunes that you like too by ear.
I do it all the time! It's fun not to be tied down to written music sometimes. ;) |

I'll also teach the deacon ninja to play the piano in 2 minutes ^ then chop his head of with a violin stick |

With all these factors in mind, is "Clocks" too advanced, unattainable? |
No not at all, you can do anything with it, if you're motivated enough. :D

| you could probably just learn clocks without the lesson, just by listening to it by ear. it's a really simple piano riff. |

If you get confused with note names, D is actually the easiest to find - the middle of the two black notes (C is to the left of that, obviously). |

So that's what I did! With the help of this site:
http://www.8notes.com/school/riffs/...play_clocks.asp
By ear I just found the keys and barely managed with the chords! I was so happy!! The tempo is fast, it's hard to keep up.. I may for an instant and then everything goes to hell hahaa. But when I just play the 3+3+2 rhythm with the song, it meshes in.. everything is right. But there has to be more.. it sounds so .. bland when I play it on only the piano. What are those chords for? I'm using only my right hand... and I don't think that's all he's doing is it? :conf:
N00b questions: are there a different # of keys on a keyboard than piano? I want to label the keys on the keyboard as a sort of cheat sheet until I get them memorized. Can someone help? I can't find any site that just lays out the full board and has key notes. For example, on the link I provided, there are only a minimal amount of keys displayed in the pictoral piano chords at the bottom. How am I to decipher which is which note if not all keys are displayed?
Est and Bokus.. can you elaborate a bit? |
