Hey Darren - really nice playing. I have to make a comment on "Running to Stand Still" and have to do it here because that video is comment-disabled. This is one of my favorite pieces because of the piano part. When Bono sings: Ah la la _la_ de day, for the italicized "la" try playing a C major triad over the left-hand G octave instead of an E minor triad before you move to the G chord. To me, this is the most poignant chord (the C) in the whole piece. Let me know what you think. Keep the great work!
@@aaronrosenberg6633 thanks for writing Aaron. I’m on holiday at the moment but when I get home I will definetly add the chords you mentioned . I too love the piano part of Running to Stand Still. It’s very simple , but effective.
Sehr gut gespielt, ich hab das gleiche Keyboard,hab das aber noch nicht gelernt.Da muss ich Unterrichtsstunden bekommen.Gefällt mir echt gut,was du da gespielt hast.
Well it started with Jarvis playing a melody on a keyboard, long before he even thought up the words. Similarly (according to the Twitter feed from the Different Class listening party in 2020) the famous riff from Disco 2000 started off as a keyboard line, until while messing about in the studio, Mark Webber just decided to play the riff on his guitar instead (and at the time Mark wasn't even a full time member of the band) and the rest is history.
Jarvis Cocker actually composed on a Casio MT-500, I have just bought an MT-500 for my 35th birthday. Back in the 90s I did a multi track cover using my Yamaha PSS-790, Casio CT-700 and I also used a Casio SA-10 to play the synth lead part so I thought it was a coincidence that Jarvis Cocker composed it on a small Casio keyboard. My newest keyboard is a Yamaha PSR-295 which is an older model that came before the PSR-E4 series but the PSR-295 doesn't have synth filters or a pitchbend wheel. Last year I was going to get a Yamaha Tyros 5 for my birthday but because of unforseen circumstances resulting in me resigning I couldn't afford an arranger keyboard.
awesome job bud. I love the progression. but if you listen to it next to the song the arrangement is off. you can't sing the lyrics to it. Still love it you knocked it out of the park
I don't have the time to do a tutorial but I can give you the chords The chords are C, G and F that's all it is really. I worked this song out by ear so I don't have the sheets for it.
