  • sweet! thanks :)

    dftba

    gh611

  • ok i had the first video under wraps but this one was soo confusing... i was looking at the sheet music through the whole thing along with you... but it doesnt seem right

  • try to see if you can play it by ear

    dftba

    gh611

  • @guitarhero611 ok i have it now thanks :)

  • lol no worries!

    dftba

    gh611

  • I'm a beginner, I don't think that I will ever get this. :(

  • practice practice practice. i learned this song after not reading sheet music for a year and a half (practically forgot everything i knew) so there's hope!

    dftba

    gh611

  • well i am a beginner too, it's not that hard. nice tutorial btw

  • not a problem! thanks for watching!

    dftba

    gh611

  • waiit- i'm kinda slow lol, so when you go up the octave for the c# in the criss cross section, what changes there? because im looking at the sheet with the letter format and i feel lost lol

  • um... do you have a time stamp? it helps me know exactly what you're asking lol...

    dftba

    gh611

  • like around 4:58, lol, what do you do afterwards?

  • ok, i think i understand. when you play the C# D E then you move up an octave to hit the C# and B... is that the part you're talking about lol?

    dftba

    gh611

  • @guitarhero611 yes!

  • do you have to play the left hand part?

  • lol of course not xD

    dftba

    gh611

  • where is part one? lol

  • check my channel, or it's posted as a video response to this one ^^ hope this helps!

    dftba

    gh611

  • thanks[:

  • the second criss-cross is a BIT twitchy... i can't seem to get it right... !

  • keep practicing, i have faith ;-)

    dftba

    gh611

  • Hey thanx again! im workin on that vid...but 1st i wanna learn the whole song & have it solid hahaha i'm learning without sheet music...somehow easier for me lol i'll be checkin out part 3 next, i'm startin to see a familiar pattern in this song.

  • awesome! a good idea, indeed ;-)

    and yes.... there are a few patterns in this song lol xD

    dftba

    gh611

  • So, this might be a stupid question... But where's the next video? XD

  • check my channel xD

    dftba

    gh611

  • ok i was concentraiting to hard, i know what the a and d segment are but i cant quite figure out the F# segment.. lol sorry for the confusion

  • what is an f segment "A" segment and "D" segment? im new new at all of this and am teaching myself without sheet music.

  • watch part one ^^ lol

    dtba

    gh611

  • 2:51 you said D, but you played B

  • it's probably the accent lol xD

    dftba

    gh611

  • omg i love the accent

    this has helped soo much.

  • awesome! be sure to catch parts 3 and 4 as well! :D

    dftba

    gh611

  • i couldn't catch that small segment of notes where you go higher an octave of C# and B at 7.19. ): help?

  • B C# B A Ab A

    i think that's the segment that ur talking about right lol?

    dftba

    gh611

  • Ohhh yes. that's the missing part. haha. sorry for the late response. i haven't been practising. and now i'm trying to pick it up again.

  • lol, no worries! if you have any other questions, feel free to ask!

    dftba

    gh611

  • In the letter format, in the criss cross section, you have E & A, C#, then B & G#. I was watching your video as well and I don't see you play those notes. So I guess I'm just wondering if you're supposed to play the E & A and B & G# together or not. =)

  • yes. well, actually, they're really optional. sometimes i remember to play both of them, and sometimes i don't lol it's really up to you, they're called coloring notes and as long as you have your melody, then you should be ok xD hope this helps!

    dftba

    gh611

  • Thank you SOOOO much for teaching this! I can play it full now, so I am gonna play it for my end of year exam in Music class. yay!!! You rock dude!!!!

  • Lol, not a problem! glad i could help =)

    dftba

    gh611

  • I get confused at the part when you move up an octave on C# in criss cross then you move down using a series of notes,which notes are they?

  • do you have a timestamp? that helps me know which part you're talking about lol

    dftba

    gh611

  • Yeah at about 5:20, Its ok you say what to play there. I was playing along with you whilst looking at the notes, so I got confused.

  • lol ok. if you have any other questions, feel free to ask!

    dftba

    gh611

  • you should poat videos on how to play lake erie rainfall

  • Hey I've been watching the first part and I got it .. but this second part.. pls. help me :(.. mr.. I can't get it... its just too hard for.. me cause im just 11.. (a kid) pls. make it simple :D.. thank you.. =]

  • um... i've made it as simple as i could lol, sorry :/

    dftba

    gh611

  • my computer can't download the letter version of the sheet music help anyone?

  • um... can you not open it or download it?

    gh611

  • im very confused on the criss cross part on 3:00. i have the notes and i'm reading this differently from you. you're doing: B C# D E C# B. but i have: B C# D (A and E) C# (G# and B). and the left hand after A E G# mine reads G# D E, while reading playing it in reverse. it's confusing because my notes dont telling my which octave to play in so even if it write "middle C" i'm playing an octave higher or lower....ugh....

  • i'm not sure i understand...

    gh611

  • yeahhhh sorry i confused myself too...i get it now!! haha

  • lol ok, awesome =)

    dftba,

    gh611

  • how do u play an A cord, sorry i didnt get it

  • An A chord or a segment lol? an a chord is A C# and E.....

    dftba

    gh611

  • Wow. I love youre accent! haha anywho, thanks for being a great teacher, and hopefully i can learn the song now! I love listening to this song, and i've been learning the piano so i wanted to learn it. THANKS

    -Jenni♥

    dftba

    gh611

    dftba!

    gh611

  • What's that bit you do at 7:04 before you go back to Charlie Brown? Thanks :)

  • i think he uses his right hand to do a fast A-C#-A if you understand. He rolls with his hand. :)

  • umm... actually i think it's an F# C# F# if i remember correctly... lol hope this helps!

    gh611

  • not to be annoying, but your right hand isn't on the F# :) it looks like your right hand rolls from A. But ofc i can't be sure, it's you playing the song. :)

  • oh! right right right! i thought we were talking about the left hand lol! yes, right hand does an A C# A

    lol, my bad!

    dftba

    gh611
