I guess I will say it again….AWESOME!!!
Sweet, I’m going to start working on it now
Thanks a lot Ryan, you rock..!!
WOOO WOOOOOOOOOo best tutorial site EVA lol hahaaaaa
u rock !
CAN U PLAY MOZART ?? And can u make a tut on it thanks btw cool music
I was wondering you know when you play the music to your songs and the music doesnt have the piano in it, is it that you cut the piano out somehow so you can play it cause i want to play the piano while the person is singing like the rihannah take a bow, i want to play while she sings and the other bits are in it, please could you email me and tell me how to do it.
I’m going to try and tab this song out in the end of the week when I have time. So check the forum out in a day or two
r u going to post it on youtube too?
Awesome tutorial! but your missing one part….
the part where it goes: “And don’t tell me your sorry ’cause you not… baby when you know your only sorry you got caught.”
other than that, awesome job man.
I’m not missing that part. You are still playing the main riff: E B E B, Eb B F# E, and then this chord: D A D F#
Awesome tutorial! you’re a good teacher..
I must say, playing in B is quite complicated..
Why can’t we just play it in C?
Good Tutorial, although you kept confusing me when you showed the chords and then the part you do with the melody, but I think I got it.
