The 1978 song “Copacabana” was inspired by the real-life nightclub of the same name and the story in the song was later turned into a musical stage-show. A fun tune to play – I hope you enjoy the letter notes below 🙂 Copacabana (At the Copa) – Barry Manilow was last modified: October 26th, 2018 […]
From the 1977 musical show and film Annie, “Tomorrow” is an iconic and hopeful piece sung by the main character. Cover versions have been recorded by Grace Jones, Barbra Streisand, Elaine Paige, Lea Salonga, Patti Smith and many others. This one is a bit more challenging, with a wider note range extending quite low. You […]
A lovely song by ABBA which plays in the credits in the musical film Mamma Mia. Fun and easy to practice, with the few sharps, flats and high notes thrown in later for a bit of a challenge. Thank You For The Music – ABBA was last modified: October 21st, 2018 by nat
A heat-felt powerful song from ABBA, “The Winner Takes It All” was the first track to be released from the album Super Trouper in 1980. It has been covered by big names including Meryl Streep in Mamma Mia, The Corrs, Cher, Carla Bruni, McFly and also the Glee Cast. It’s a fun and relatively easy […]
A catchy ABBA tune which also featured in the musical theatre show and film “Mamma Mia”, “Lay All Your Love On Me” was originally released in 1980. A really fun one to work out the notes too – though I wasn’t sure if this version, or shifted 1 semitone up (starting on Bb) sounded better […]
Originally released in 1975, “SOS” was one of ABBA’s first worldwide hits. It’s become even more popular since appearing in the film Mamma Mia. Happy practice 🙂 SOS – ABBA was last modified: October 20th, 2018 by nat
“Summer Nights” is a popular song from the 1978 musical film Grease featuring John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John. It became a massive hit in it’s own right both the United States and United Kingdom during the summer of the movie’s release. A fun tune to play, enjoy the letter notes below 🙂 Summer Nights – […]
From the 2014 film version of Annie, it shares the same overall melody and chorus with the original 1982 version, however the verses are slightly different. I hope this is similar enough for you to enjoy the letter notes, whichever version you know best 🙂 It’s the Hard-Knock Life – Annie was last modified: October […]
“Defying Gravity” is the main musical score from the theatre show Wicked, though you may have also come across it in Glee. It’s a long song featuring monologues and complex duets, so I’ve pulled out the main verses and chorus so you can play the melody you know and love – happy practice! Defying Gravity […]
Another ABBA song, also featuring in Mamma Mia – “Andante, Andante” wasn’t a song I was familiar with before but turns out it’s a fun and challenging tune to play, with quite the note range. I hope you enjoy playing the letter notes below 🙂 Andante, Andante – ABBA was last modified: October 9th, 2018 […]
It's a bit odd, but for some reason nat really enjoys spending her free time on a laptop (ideally with a coffee and a cat) rather than 'going out' or 'having fun'!
