    Hey hey great ! I played Let It Be for quite some years and I knew there was something not right but never found out what it was until I just saw this video. I subscribed your channel only a week ago and learned already new things. No, I’m not a teached piano player but I use my ears as much and good as possible.

    Hey Adam, love your work. Is it possible to request a lesson on lead sheets in particular how to form chords below the melody line in the right hand. Thanks.

    I love your videos. Always enjoyable and I come away inspired by what I’ve learned. I’ve really enjoyed learning the Bruce Hornsby song and enjoyed & inspired by taking the techniques of The Way It Is and applying them to the other chord progression as you showed.

    Hej Adam
    It would be great if backingtrack and/or sheet music were accompanied by a MIDI file.
    Then I could insert it directly into my DAW. Even better, transfer the MIDI file to my Yamaha P-S500.
    I am a beginner and find it very helpful to see which note/chord I should play on the keyboard. It is a quick way for me to learn new songs.
    Then I would gladly buy your courses.
    Best regards

    Another awesome lesson, Adam! So, the pattern in the right hand is to alternate between the I and the IV in descending inversions? This reminds me of your lesson about gospel triads, where the right hand alternates between the I and the ii.

    Do you think that you can also do, Imagine by John Lennon. The intro is very haunting

    How can I contact you with more questions on Paul's finger placement on chords? I know his style is very unconventional and he plays chords different than the traditional way. I am 37 and just starting out on piano. I have smaller hands and struggle with certain chords used in his songs.
