‪Charlie Puth is a master at creating extremely hooky pop songs.  I heard this one and became obsessed with it instantly.  It's climbing the charts now.  We'll see how far it goes. 

Super fun song to play but don't think our bands will cover it because of the slow tempo.  But you never know...

Changes

Everybody remembers Trainor's "All About The Bass" smash over 10 years ago.  Maybe you remember other songs which got some exposure.  This song came out around Thanksgiving last year and it seems to have all the elements of a pop/dance hit.  It's too soon to tell at this point, but it hooked me after the first play.

It's a simple F major song with the same chord progression for the verses and choruses.  There's a little bridge in there which breaks it up. 

The tricky part was fighting my instinct to hit the accent on the 3, rather than the 4.  I was hit and miss the first half of the song.  But finally by the last chorus, I nailed it.

Probably shouldn’t post a video the same day I learn it. 😊

Still Don't Care

This song was released less than a month ago and it's already a smash.  The song consists of 4 separate sections (Verse, Pre-chorus, Chorus, and Bridge).  Each one has it's own tricky rhythm.  As always, this video is recorded in one take with no editing, no auto-tune, no AI, and no beauty filter.  Although I'm not against using a beauty filter if I could figure out how to add one. :)

This song is also the first song I've recorded using an app I built to separate audio components.  You see the different tracks in GarageBand.  The top track is the original bass track I muted while recording.  The other three from top to bottom are drums, other (guitar & keyboard), and voice.  I had been using a commercial app to do the separations before.  I'm creating my own app to try to get AI to write the tabs for me.  It's still a work in progress.  I'll let you know when it's ready to test.  But as you can see, the stem separation works very well!
