My favorite is sad )) Perfectly explained! Agree and use all of them regularly for my piano compositions

[@scottwallace1]

Anyone else pick up that ‘half happy/half sad’ was Radiohead’s ‘Creep’?

[@firehandszarb]

i was hearing radiohead vibes

[@timsamuel4723]

That is the chord progression in Creep - G B C Cm in the key of G which is I III IV iv

[@manmadeartists]

Thank you for mentioning this! Sad that I don’t have a piano rn to play it. Half happy/half sad

[@bomtez9806]

Excellent video! The simplicity and usability is exceptional! Thanks.

Beautifully conceived lesson that is superb for classical orchestral musicians who have to spend so much time reading.

[@richiestarks6163]

Watching from Tampa, FL. This video is a great. The explanation and slow playing greatly helps. I am going to practice tonight.

[@marcnevins9491]

Thank you that was very helpful

[@matthewwilliams4143]

Nice! I see you are using inversions while playing the progressions. Very important and worth the mention 😊

[@amnat4207]

Thanks 🙏 ❤❤❤

[@vleiratfilms2020]

Very useful, even for an old timer like me 💫 Thanks 🌹🎹

[@554LH]

Very nice indeed, I’m writing these down in my song book. Wonderful lesson.

[@curt300s]

6. Hope is gorgeous.

[@brendaheddles9039]

I found this very helpful. The chord progressions were interesting but what was even more helpful to me was the variety of chord rythmes and transition patterns. I found the 10 Rhythm Patterns sheet music very helpful and would love to have the same for this session.

[@weltenschmerz]

I dont know the rhythm pattern, but just combine this two. You will learn a lot and you will learn by far the most if you take your time and figure out own rhytms! believe me. If your maybe tired of learning your "session stuff" just go and play arround with chors progressions (including their rhytmic composion) :) you will find your self back two hours later :D

[@jmsjms296]

Great!

[@catricitraningtias121]

Thank you for your tutorial. Always useful! I wonder, with different emotions (chords progression), does rhytm also affect the created emotion? I notice you were playing different rhytm for every example.

[@about2flip]

Great Video. Thanks. Do you have any downloadable PDFs so we can practice?

[@darryldouglas6004]

A big hello to my fellow keyboard players! 👋😃🤚Liked and subscribed! Very good content. The graphics really help as well as your ability to explain in a way even I can understand.

[@arriflalani]

Fantastic lesson. You really don't get this from any book I have. Must have taken ages to produce. Many thanks for a great lesson!

[@ttfan3257]

Thank you. You made it easy to understand Key of C = all white keys only

[@theguynextdoor3735]

Super 💯

[@ronnienichols8401]

What keyboard are you using with the wood look to it? Great vdo!

[@anandgodane8022]

Very nice video sir ji 👍❤❤❤

[@abbesatty9498]

The number 4. Chill is really chill. Probably because it incorporates (sort of) the ii V I progression.

[@tdrolmaya]

What is the piano you use? Looks beautiful

[@BISHOP2ARISE1408]

Yeah I'll be adding these today in the old trusty daw

[@fatimabarreto1634]

Milo, descobri seu canal em inglês e isso me deixa muito feliz. Assim treino meu inglês no que se refere a termos musicais. Sucesso!

[@Artur_Trancolino]

Bem que o sotaque soou pt-br mesmo. Acho que os melhores sotaques para se entender a língua são daqueles que não são nativos, as palavras são ditas de uma forma mais entendível

[@brendaheddles9039]

P.S. I'm also a fan of your channel.

[@ChorltonM21]

This was very very useful. If you had added a bit of theory explaining which chords were non diatonic it would have helped even more. Thank you.

[@jasonbourne488]

Those chords fit the C b6 mixolydian mode. The turtorial would have been better if it just stuck to the diatonic chords.

[@musicappreciate]

He could’ve borrowed from any mode

[@jasonbourne488]

@@musicappreciate the point is that he uses C major for his lesson and then ends up playing notes that aren’t in that scale. So beginners might get confused.

[@hihihihihihi05]

Its not hard to tell which of them are non diatonic?

[@jennywren8937]

Pretty easy to spot. Going into unnecessary detail in a short space of time was unnecessary, just play the notes and enjoy.

[@tomaszszlapanski5988]

Might sound stupid but I was struggling to understand what is so simple. Mean "simple" because you explained that in normal simple way . Than you!

[@johnnylong2023]

nice !!! (its a custom piano???

[@alvaromorenoacosta1518]

7:30

[@tarkineWild]

The 3rd last example is screaming Creep by Radiohead

[@darryldouglas6004]

It does because it’s the same progression, sort of. Creep is in G. It still uses the I III IV iV, G B C Cm, The B and Cm are borrowed from the parallel minor key of G minor. 😃

[@florent4180]

Love this! Thank you. Also, am I alone thinking that the number 8 sounds like Creep by Radiohead? And feel like I've already heard the 9th as well 🤔

[@themadscot34]

1 min.22 seconds in , I am like. What??? Oh boy. I needed ultimate beginners chords ,

[@benjaminhaokip6767]

Please play whisky lullaby with arpeggios

[@WesleyScottOfficial]

1. Let it be.

[@michaelclaxton4111]

I get it now! The first chord determines what key your in. So if ypu start on a C your playing in the key o C etc etc

[@charlesbormla]

Not necessarily. Although generally speaking, songs end on the note of the key eg in key of C, final note (and chord) will be C

[@JSCarie1983]

@@charlesbormlaWhat? What is eg?

[@fhmfhm6384]

Can you make a Video how to play the accords so wonderful with left and right hand beat and arpeggios...the part when you say "let's hear..."?

[@pixelfrenzy]

most of the left hand seems to be combinations of root note, 5th and octave (when there's space), similar to rhythm 7 on the video he linked at the end.

[@yoshida6784]

10:52 The 8th one was like the intro from Vampire by Olivia Rodrigo

[@harrilmullany2786]

At 7.45 - Hit the Road Jack

[@PierreRipplinger]

The 1st example inevitably makes you silently sing "When I find myself in times of trouble, Mother Mary comes to me". Every goddamn time.

[@alejoferreiro9149]

N°9 sound more like iv i VII to me, but cool video

[@TreoTra93]

does anyone know what piano that is?

[@user-om7rn9mg3x]

🤘🏼

[@weltenschmerz]

0:12 Thetwo most important emotions are missing: 😍 and 😡

[@lionelbisschoff3673]

No. 8 sounds very Radiohead Creep

[@jaypezewalters4420]

That's what I thought...maybe not the same chords ( but it could be)...but it is that exact progression

[@darryldouglas6004]

It does because it’s the same progression, sort of. Creep is in G. It still uses the I III IV iV, G B C Cm, The B and Cm are borrowed from the parallel minor key of G minor.

[@lumpichu]

Nice progressions. I'm a beginner too, so I may be talking nonsense, but I think the video sometimes confuses poor beginners by flawed music theory - some of the progressions are probably not in the key of C but in C minor. And that why some of the chords are marked to be flat in the chart - if it was correctly in the minor key, the flats wouldn't be there.

[@jennywren8937]

Don't be confused by unnecessary theory, just play the notes and enjoy.

[@PierreRipplinger]

8 - "I'm a Creep, I'm a weirdo"

[@Heisenberg2097]

You play such wonderful chords... but the demonic flames scare me. Just kidding. Are you sure the editing efforts are worth the outcome? Otherwise really nice!!! And maybe next time you do a video on how to use the chromatic scale if you haven't... or how to follow and use minimal resource music, meaning take one note and explore the space of possibilities or two or just three. I do this a lot and it great fun. BR

[@bladerunner630]

How does it feel ????? like a rolling stones.

[@georgeorr1042]

Its just the old Harmonic Minor thing once again.

[@musicappreciate]

Number five is Don Francisco‘s. “He’s Alive.”

[@helenweinfeld5689]

V to IV chord is a backward progression.

[@treyrader]

the hell lol

[@carl13220]

2:39 Typical "four chord" song 🤣 (too many to mention). 11:07 "Cause i'm a creep / I'm a weirdo/ What the hell i'm doing here ? / I don't belong here".
