Learn the shortcut to playing this song with this piano cheat.

The illustration in this video is quite clear and self-explanatory, so just follow along. There are two patterns in this song, but as you would notice in the video, you need only two “chords” on the right hand. It’s the left hand that needs to be busy changing the bass notes, but the bass notes aren’t that difficult really, if you can identify a pattern in its movement. It is actually the coordination between the left and the right hands that is tricky. If you play drum, or have some sense of beats, it would definitely help. Give it a try!
