Etta James "I'd Rather Go Blind" Piano Tutorial

[@danjacobson9476]

Came for the lesson, stayed for that sultry, soulful vocal!

[@karlismusik]

Wow just wow you are so awesome thank you

[@musicalmoose2698]

Your presentation of piano lessons and your simplification of the songs make your lessons truly memorable, love your style brother!

[@cwise7]

Great lesson my brother…..quick and straight to the point …for those learning notice these are the same chords for Tennessee whiskey ….shows the relationship between beautiful songs🙏🏾🎤🎹

[@karlismusik]

Whoa! That’s exactly right. And the kicker, they sound like and are two totally different songs

[@pennyadams8159]

None of this is true...way to much talking.

[@samjohnson8994]

Less is more baby! Thanks for making these… top notch!

[@karlismusik]

Yes yes yes. You’re welcome and thanks for watching

[@monika1234ify]

I love this. We had a female vocalist join for our weekly jam last night and she was killing it on this song. I now have the chords to back her up :)

[@VictoriaPalmer-y8i]

Real talk 🔥

[@karlismusik]

[@dalehester9548]

That’s amazing. I just scrolled through an hour of bullshit people playing totally irrelevant intricate shit to try and make a cover out of this song and you just did by far the absolute best one with 2 chords.

[@person3538]

You have a great voice

[@karlismusik]

Thank you so much

[@amialexa5051]

I came to see the chords for a sec, but your voice is amazing

[@karlismusik]

Thank you so much for watching

[@angelathomas1159]

Thank You !!!

[@xkaliberkane]

You a bad boy!

[@piijay14]

This might as well be the same progression for "Tennessee Whiskey!

[@karlismusik]

You got it, good ear

[@johnwarthof1824]

And same rythm pattern: 6/8!

[@kevinkevin4985]

Great vocal.

[@karlismusik]

Thank you thank you

[@florortiz2801]

Just in seconds you've got me hooked up

[@karlismusik]

Wow that is so cool. God bless you 🙏🏾

[@meccob.5927]

Thank a lot. I really like this song. Beyonce killed it in the movie. Yours was outstanding

[@karlismusik]

You’re welcome and thank you. Beyoncé did a fabulous job. I felt kind of bad for liking it so much

[@meccob.5927]

No you're was definitely good

[@matsetizar65]

So during the Bm7 chord the right hand is not playing the B note and leaves it for the left hand?

[@stephenbru]

Sounds like Tennessee Whiskey !!..

[@danjacobson9476]

I feel like it hits the V chord on the last bar before it resolves to the I - maybe the bassist is outlining that? Is it possible it's more of a subtle I-ii-V that just pure I-ii? Like the chord under the lyrics "When I saw you..." around the 1:28 mark. I feel like I hear it in this live version: kzbin.info/www/bejne/h3XGZIqtYpeLbZI

[@karlismusik]

Yes there was a simplicity in the original recording but I can imagine playing it live will allow musicians like yourself and I to expand on those progressions because you can go so many places with the space that was created in the original

[@danjacobson9476]

@@karlismusik thanks for the reply! I guess when you have Etta James singing, you really don't need much else.

[@PeaGeeKay]

Absolutely love this! I came across it as I was looking for a piano tutorial for I wanna get next to You by Rose Royce but there's nothing online that I can find. Maybe you could do one in the future? 🤞🙏 #newsubscriber

[@karlismusik]

Wow thanks for watching! I will add that great song to the list

[@linasubasi4062]

Im back! I gave up 😖 but ill give it another go!

[@patriciamcdougald8705]

[@karlismusik]

I would love to, adding to the list

[@stormgriffin1893]

You better sing!!!!

[@karlismusik]

God bless you

[@eddiecoleman1504]

❤️

[@karlismusik]

🙏🏾

[@lilcmilly]

Can you do the entire song?

[@karlismusik]

I just might do a reboot of my Cover Tune Friday series and add this one to the list

[@QueenSkeffi]

Falsetto Modern Smokey

[@Rob-bk4ie]

Only 2 chords 😮……i‘m teaching my self piano and chords and these hole Stuff. I will try it…….“

[@1Reg0]

More gold

[@karlismusik]

You’re the best. Thanks for watching

[@youngmaryworld]

Not sure why I have such a hard time playing this song and getting rhythm right :( thanks anyways tho

[@karlismusik]

Keep practicing. It’s really more like an exercise so your dexterity really comes into play. You got this

[@ctesantaclara5378]

It might be confusing when you switch key signatures in your tutorial.. in other words, in the key of A major has 3 sharps, yet you refer to C sharp as D flat. Just sayin'

[@karlismusik]

Yeah I know but the same note right. I think that’s all that matters cuz feeling has no language

[@davaxschinko]

Sweet as honey

[@karlismusik]

Wow god bless you. Etta=LEGEND
