lol I can't play this song either, and I don't even play the piano . . . However I'm here to transcribe the song, not perform it :P

An Update: I have all the notes down :D ! All I need to do now is make it look nice on paper, so piano players can easily read it.

For the finished product, of course I'm using Finale.

But, I wasn't using Finale to figure out the notes and the rythyms of the song.

Well here's a sneak peak!

So, what do you think? My first time transcribing piano music, so I'll need some feedback.

ahaha man if you got a good connection rate go and download a midi converter. it costs you nothing as your using the trial version but it converts midi's to sheet music format. they're my best friend thats for sure :D

search for melody assistant thats the 1 I use and all the notes are accurate with no mistakes

Doesn't Finale do that already?

The thing is the song is "unreadable" if you open it with Finale, even though the rythyms and pitches are accurate. The song isn't "in sync" with Finale.

Do midi converters make them "readable"?

But anyway . . ..

Here it is! Attached is the transribed version of the song. Tell me what you all think.

No problem! :D

Just take note, when Finale plays back the song, it won't sound exactly like the original because of "human elements", like speeding up or slowing down blah blah etc. which I don't feel like putting in.

BTW, can you tell me when you mastered the song :P ?

suggestion: make the 16th notes grace notes on the treble cleff where you play 16th and then a note higher.

Cool! Post some more suggestions if you think there are still some problems with it.

charchar123, can you tell me what measure? I need to make sure that we're on the "same page"

Hmm I tried replacing the 16th notes; it didnt sound right IMO. I just think its one of those "human elements" that I was talking about to make it sound like the original. What do you think?

to fob on the below post: :D
