Learning a POLYPHIA Song Completely by Ear... In one sitting.

[@unclejudymusic]

I love you Tim. (Edit) i had to edit a lot of the audio out of this vid when it started getting bigger so if it seems a bit weird in places, that’s why

Jerad Scharrer i understand skepticism on the internet, but that negativity isnt really wanted here. Even if it is fake, who cares? We dont lose anything.

[@nostalgiajunkie]

Jerad Scharrer it’s his identification and theory knowledge that makes it more impressive even if he’d already learned it

[@johnleo6095]

@@mosley3485 ? how? they are the same thing

[@Alfpancho]

Devin Boutte yeah they sound the same, but in terms of theory, you’d be wrong to assume that a song in the Key of Eb has a G# instead of an Ab.

[@SallionMang]

@@Alfpancho Maaaaaan why does this have to be so complicated lol. So I was under the impression that the direction you're changing the note in determines whether it's flat or sharp. Like if you go from A to A#, it's not Bb because you're moving up the scale, and if the song starts there it's sharp?

Ok you need more subs. I came here looking for help on learning this myself. Not only did I get that, but a comedy act too. Nice one bro

[@cvorwell]

Meta observation: the sheer number of comments telling you that you that this channel will continue to grow and that the algorithm brought them here, as well as, the fact that those same forces drove me here shows you that, if you continue to regularly produce content here you will blow up sooner or later. Keep at it dude!

Nice. the questioning your motivation for learning a whole prog song after the first riff is exactly what I learned trying to do goat. And I learn by ear too. Because I’m lazy and overconfident haha. Then I always play things a little wrong because I’m stubborn and don’t wanna look at tabs.

I understand the pain of learning by ear without perfect pitch I learned most of Up Into The Ether by I Built the Sky and that was a nightmare even with slowing it down. You weren't far off by any means I think you did great for the time you spent on it. Keep up the good work :)

[@trashboys2469]

Tim hybrid picking. A technique where the pick comes in a downward stroke (as it usually does) but the middle and ring finger are utilized in an upward plucking fashion to add notes into a cord or progression without doing a full sweep of the pick and making and entire cord. It's done do to isolate all notes in an instances such as a cord and instead of producing a single stroke cord u produce entirely individual notes that all stand alone even if played simultaneously. Tim also does a tap version of thise method. But in the instance I think it's the normal hybrid picking hes doing.

[@SuperiorRobyn]

I am dealing with a constant depression because I never practice my instruments to develop my natural music abilities so I can actually have skill. I was too afraid to tell my mom and my teachers that I wanted to pursue music after higschool. I was in all the band and music classes and excelled (even tho I didn't practice) and LOVED it. now I am 25 and I feel like I have wasted the past 8 years of my life. I have no self discipline in any area of my life and deal with crippling social anxiety and borderline agoraphobia. And I have this dying passion to be a performing musician and it is driving me INSANE. Though, I do sing a lot. I guess that counts as practice, though I could use some lessons, I don't think I'm too shabby. Could def be better tho.

[@m.poppins4843]

Its never too late bro. Don't waste another 8 years, and get back to it!

[@javiermunoz8561]

start doing a youtube channel with inusual cover or your own songs!!

[@Scrubbza]

I understand how you feel, I get no motivation to practice my instruments and all i want to do is perform music in a band with my best friends (which sadly doesnt happen anymore). One month i'll be playing my guitar and bass nonstop and then suddenly one day "BOOM" there's nothing and my guitars collect dust for the next 5 months and all my skill disappears with it... What i think what needs to be done is you need to find someone with the same passion for music as you which will give you that motivation... easier said than done though.. I wish you all the best in your future though and hope you find that spark to get your motivation.. Stay strong
