Also, you can often hear little counter-melodies going on in a song, and these are never in the sheet music either. so those sophisticated chords are never there (as is very apparent when one looks at an arrangement in a 'Busker Book'). Often the harmonies in the sheet music are simplified to make it easier for the player. There is too much going on to include it all in two staves. Sheet music can never give you exactly what you hear. Your posting needs a reply! There is one trouble with the 'sheet music'.

To do all the above is FREE (at the moment), but only in connection with YouTube videos. The chords will always be detected and shown in the actual key the song was recorded in.

I am learning how to play Alan Price's song Just For You and have come across this website - Riffstation - where they say: Below are comments I have put elsewhere in the FORUM: There is another website where they do something like this. with the box showing, ready to put those songs into. And when I did this the Chordify website worked as it should do. which did have an 'X' on the left hand side of the bar so I could close it down. After some correspondence by email with the Chordify people it became clear that I had an 'extension' (add-on?) attached to Google Chrome. But when I did this I found that the 'box' to put the MP3/YouTube URL into only appeared on the screen for a fraction of a second. They suggest that you use the latest version of Google Chrome or Firefox instead. but Chordify is not supported by this older version of Internet Explorer.

When I first went to the Chordify website I tried using Internet Explorer Version 8, the highest I can have with the Windows XP Operating system I have. I'll give it a try and let you know how I get on.īut I will just finish with this comment: This arrangement does not have the same chords as the one done by The Platters. There are some really interesting chords in it. Now there are one or two songs on YouTube I would like the chords for, one being Freddie Mercury's arrangement of The Great Pretender.

and lo and behold the chords used in the piece appear. So imagine my excitement on finding a website where you can upload the music you are listening to as MP3, or 'Paste' in a YouTube LINK. After all, different artistes have different arrangements and their harmonies are often not what is written on the sheet music. I couldn't possibly pick up a melody line from a song that has been written in four sharps! Why on earth do they sell music like this?īut there are some songs I listen to where I just cannot fathom out what the chords are.

or I can at a pinch pick up the melody line from the music score, so long as it is in a key that is acceptable to me. The melody line I usually pick up 'by ear' after listening to a song a number of times. Sometimes I put in chords of my own as I find the written ones are not the ones I hear when listening to the piece of music. or I just know intuitively what they are. When I play I need the chords for the music I am playing, which I either read off the music score I have in front of me.
