A really catchy song, “Leave Me Alone” is from Michael Jackson’s 7th studio album ‘Bad’ released in 1987. It has that classic 80’s MJ vibe, a great one for beginners on any instrument 🙂 Leave Me Alone – Michael Jackson was last modified: April 29th, 2018 by nat
An ABBA classic, Fernando was released in 1980 as it one of a handful of singles to have sold more than 10 million copies around the the world. There’s an English, Swedish and Spanish language version – i’ve transcribed the English version below. I hope you enjoy playing – it’s a great simple one for […]
I’ve had songs from The Greatest Showman, Les Miserables and Phantom of the Opera stuck in my head for weeeeeks now! So I decided to write up another 🙂 I hope you enjoy the letter notes to “Come Alive” performed energetically by the The Greatest Showman ensemble – Hugh Jackman, Keala Settle, Daniel Everidge and Zendaya. […]
Written for the 1978 musical Grease, “You’re the One That I Want” is the last song in the film, and was a successful hit single reaching #1 around the world. An upbeat, catchy tune which is fun to play, a great one for beginners across all instruments 🙂 You’re the One That I Want – […]
One of my favourites from Phantom of the Opera, “Prima Donna” is the bit where they’re trying to keep Carlotta happy and some of the lyrics are just silly 😛 A lovely tune which is great fun to play – i’m not sure i’ll ever master the fast Andre/Firmin bit at the end, perhaps you […]
The catchy Bangles tune “Walk Like An Egyptian” has simpler notes in it than i realised, it seems it’s just the speed/rhythm of the tune which makes it a bit tricky to play – a good challenge that i’m enjoying trying to master, I hope you enjoy it too 🙂 Walk Like An Egyptian – […]
A really fun song to play that everyone will know in one form or another! “Dream a Little Dream of Me” has taken many forms over the years, appearing in film, TV and it’s been covered by many artists. It’s a relatively simple tune, not too fast either, so it’s perfect for beginners. And I […]
Having been performed by Elaine Paige, Barbra Streisand, Susan Boyle, Sarah Brightman, Barry Manilow, Shirley Bassey and many others, ‘Memory’ is an iconic tune that people know without having seen the play it’s from, ‘Cats’ the musical! It’s a lovely tune to play, no matter your instrument or skill level, there will be a part […]
Having been making music for 20 years (and still going!), it’s likely everyone’s heard a Röyksopp song at some point – I hear them in the background a lot on random BBC shows, usually ‘Eple’ haha 😀 ‘Running to the Sea’ is a beautiful, mournful, slow song with a really simple melody – perfect for […]
From the wonderful Irish band The Cranberries, here are the letter notes to ‘Animal Instinct’. I’ve done Zombie already, so there are a couple for you to enjoy now 🙂 It goes fairly high pitched, so may be easier for beginners to play an octave down (instrument-dependent!) or to shift the key around a bit. […]
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'!
