I Knew You Were Trouble Rockschool Grade 3 Guitar

[@jammingwithjames3488]

I haven’t done my exam for grade 2 but I am enjoying playing this song so much!

[@AtomMusicSchool]

Suprising isn't it, especially as Im not a fan of the original. I actually did enjoy playing this one as well.

[@pr1nc397]

I got told my exam is next week, and I love using your videos to keep practicing everyday to polish my songs up to hopefully do well with not much preparation time!

[@AtomMusicSchool]

Good luck!! let me know how it goes.

[@pr1nc397]

@@AtomMusicSchool It went well, until I started strumming the wrong rythm to the wrong song and my tie got stuck in the strings 😂😂. But overall it was decent.

[@林彦君-w8p]

Did you pass?

[@Gaara429]

I just learn my grade 3 solo for my gcse for next 3 year and this is my solo piece from school so this helps me a lot.

[@AtomMusicSchool]

Awesome. Thanks for watching. Make some videos would love to see.

[@Dimitrovlover]

What would you say are the 3 best songs for grade 3😊

[@AtomMusicSchool]

I get asked this a lot. I have taken to saying, the songs you like the most. Dont worry about difficulty, pick songs you will enjoy.

[@medivir6823]

1:56 is the part with the backing track only btw just to help u guys

[@AtomMusicSchool]

[@medivir6823]

[@Tr1ckysz]

I’m at grade 3 , thanks for the song so I could practice

[@AtomMusicSchool]

Ur so welcome.

[@ab_cubing]

hey, can you setup advertisements at beginning or at the end of the video as while practicing a song the ad pops up in the middle so I have to start again as it ruins the timing

[@AtomMusicSchool]

Ah so sorry. I never have the middle one on, this is my mistake. Thanks for pointing it out.

[@AtomMusicSchool]

Ok so just checked and it's already turned off for adverts in the middle of the video???? So I am not quite sure why you are getting adverts half way through.

[@meslissa]

I've never done a grade exam but I can play grade 2 songs so does that mean I'm grade 2 or just nothing? Also great video I'm going to learn this one for when I get lessons again for my gcses

[@AtomMusicSchool]

Thing to do is learn 3songs and the technical exercises . See if u can get all that together at once. That's what u would need to do for an exam. But u could probably tell people u are grade 2standard.

[@林彦君-w8p]

I am grading to grade 4 on the 20 May

[@AtomMusicSchool]

Nice

[@SakshamYadav6405]

very nice song

[@AtomMusicSchool]

Thank you

[@Dhanika_Rai_Malik]

Ever been to a Taylor swift concert?! I bet they are the most magical events in the whole cosmos

[@AtomMusicSchool]

I have not. I imagine she puts on a good show.

[@ashishvaria362]

Hard song, buddy!

[@AtomMusicSchool]

For a Taylor swift song, this isn't easy. Gotta put some feel into it. Good luck. Try slow it down on the setting on the video, playback speed.

[@ashishvaria362]

@@AtomMusicSchool TAYLOR SWIFT IS A LEGEND! ❤️

[@NaomiArfman]

Omg ty this helped me a lot

[@AtomMusicSchool]

YEY!

[@Mark-gd5vr]

This song is one of the easier ones. Would It be harder to get Mark's for this one?

[@AtomMusicSchool]

This is a good point, when choosing songs. In theory you shouldn't get less marks for an easier song. It's been put into that grade for a reason. I always say to my students never pick a song according to difficulty. Pick a song bcus u like it, makes it more fun and easier to practise. I will say that this song is harder than it looks. Chords are easy but getting the correct feel is hard, especially with the dead notes in-between. Some find chords easy others find this a real challenge.

[@AtomMusicSchool]

Ur obviously very good with chords. 😉

[@Mark-gd5vr]

@@AtomMusicSchool Thanks for the generous advice. I'll be sure to take this song into consideration. 👍👍

[@AtomMusicSchool]

@@Mark-gd5vr No worries. Make a video of the finished article!!! I would love to see it.

[@Mark-gd5vr]

@@AtomMusicSchool Hey, just a quick update. I decided to go for sittin on the dock of the bay for one of my pieces. I thought it was a nice song. I have learned a good bit of It now. I would of gone for summer if 69 but my guitar teacher said there was a weird technique in In it which im a bit confused on since this is in grade 3 so I would be capable of playing it .

[@pigeonmann]

If we look at the chords part. Trinity ppl will mistaken this as grade 2 lol

[@AtomMusicSchool]

to be honest I think even rockschool people would say this is too easy for grade 3,

[@ritugupta7216]

Same with summer of 69

[@connie2331]

thank you!

[@AtomMusicSchool]

No worries

[@kayliagrella4907]

[@musicwithshaurya2416]

I don't like this song. It's too easy to be in grade 3. Should be in grade 1.

[@AtomMusicSchool]

Yeah, definately an easier one. But some find thr chords quite hard.
