Roar - Katy Perry

Many of you like her, probably just as many of you don't. However, she's big and she knows how to make her hits.

This lesson teaches those of you that do like her how to play her current biggest hit. For the rest of you it's still a nice exercise of stripping down a monster production and building it back up to a fuller piano-part (chorus).

Stripped down versions like these show you what is happening chord / pattern wise, in not-see-the-wood-for-the-trees-over-produced songs like these. Ok, I exaggerated a bit there.

Have fun!

Cheers, Coen.
