Look, or actually listen, to what an upbeat pattern can do to a very simple, four-chord progression.

Absolutely stunningly danceable tune that's on it's way of conquering the charts.

Pricelessly beautiful music and .. yes.. you've guessed it: involving and revolving around Pop-Piano at it's best.

Since this week, the new All Major and Minor SCALES / KEYS Cheat Sheet was released and is now up for sale, I decided to give away a few by creating a very applicable contest:

She's sad.

Guess we should be glad for that... else this song would have never been born, right?

A sweaty, sexy, beast of a beat.

The minimalist approach that we've seen entering the charts many times before is obviously working it's magic for this current monster-hit as well again.

Minimal also implies a not-too-hard to play piano part (which, as I also mention in the end of the video is actually played on a wonderful Rhodes piano).

Yes people, I've gone mad, bad and sadly very, very commercial on this one.

The thing is, I got such a lot of requests to make a lesson for this song, that, when realising it's actually quite a cool tune to learn for both beginners and 'über-pop'-lovers alike ON TOP OF the fact that it demonstrates what wonders a production can do to a relatively simple a piano part (i.e. turn it into something like this).. I decided to give in to your wish.

Now this one is funky.

I think this lesson demonstrates perfectly, how using and adding different patterns can totally transform a piano-part.

First, using and learning the original piano part from this track (that what the actual piano plays on the record), we'll get to know the chords and how to lay 'em down nicely to provide a beautiful harmony-carpet.

Then, in the second half of the video, I'll show you the 'funky' version. That what is played by one of the Electric-Piano's on the record.

Two songs for the price of one! 😀

An all time favourite of mine. In both versions I might add.

I fell in love with this song as a teenager when I first heard it in 2pac's hip-hop version. What a beat. What a groove. What a sweet, sweet Rhodes.

The Bobby Caldwell version, another absolute classic, currently has a steady place in my very own cover-repertoire.

In this lesson I'll show you both versions.
