2:11 Y U NO TELL WHAT CHORDS ARE?
-
wow thanks
-
@danielflasher95 Ok, the left hand there is playing a straight E major chord: E-G#-B-E, whicle the right hand plays the single E note once, then again an octave higher.
-
@pianojohn113 sorry that I didn't include the time stamp, I didn't realize that was easier. It is at 2:03.
-
@danielflasher95 Which part of the video is it? What is the time stamp?
-
That was an amazing lesson, but i still can't manage to find a certain chord, its the one played when you play a note, then its higher octave on the right hand.

If you know his song stiletto, I would appreciate a tutorial on that one. A friend of mine wants me to learn it for him, and I'm having trouble. Thanks.

Pianojohn113, you're an absolute champion for all your video's. You have helped me immensely to learn many songs, albeit I probably take longer than most as I have never had formal lessons and can only play be ear. One question if I may, my fingers are short and stumpy, not longer and more slender like yours. In most of your videos you can slide your finger between the natural keys with ease whereas it is impossible for me flat fingered and difficult with fingers on their side. Any tips mate?

@tjw2803 Glad you like my videos, thanks! For shorter fingers, usually the difficulty is in reaching the octaves. In that case, you can just play the lower or upper note instead of both, and use three finger chords instead of four. That also works if you have trouble playing notes that are close together.. either leave off a note (without changing the flavor of the chord), or play one of the notes with the left hand instead. Not sure if that helps or not, but it's a suggestion!
