Had this song title in my head which immediately made me think of a blues song but I wasn't sure how to compose the music. This video answers so many questions. I'm now going to compose the song and see how I get on Thanks so much for this video! 😄

[@codyrobichaudofficial]

Man, great video overall. A lot of detail incorporated, but can I take a moment to say you sound like John Lennon when you sing 🙌

[@SchoolofYule]

Thank you for this! Sorry for such a late response. I was raised around an hour drive from his birthplace.

This video explains it perfectly. I’ve been trying for a while to understand some of this. Tho I can’t help but notice you sound like randy singing as lorde in south park 6:00

Ya ya, feeling good on a Wednesday, sparkling thoughts give me the hope to go on.

This is awesome!

[@laskartrece]

Wow!!

[@iacobradu6444]

When the chords change do i have to change scales?

[@SchoolofYule]

You do not need to change scales, but you can do...; eg. E blues scale will work with E(I), A(IV) and B(V), but you can experiment and hear how the 3 blues scales (E, A, B) sound with each of the 3 chords too.

The begging sounds like the wander from dion

[@SchoolofYule]

Sounds about right, a quintessential 12 bar blues chord progression!

[@edwardhammond5689]
