You see a song you want to play, but you hate reading sheets. What do you do? You play by ear!! :D
It's been 2 months! :D I'm back! I've came to the conclusion that in the future, whatever Youtube related projects I have can only be worked on during my holidays. Since I have a busy life during school terms. Now, I have 2 weeks of holidays to work on some Youtube covers/projects. In about 2 months time, I will have 1.5 months of holidays :)
Making this tutorial video was so tedious. But it was worth it. I made this because I knew I won't be able to be as active on Youtube compared to last year. While I'm inactive, I hope you can still play the songs you like.

I'm not a professional in piano or anything. This video is made to share my knowledge/skills. This is the exact way of how I figured how to play by ear, or how I play by ear/improvise/compose songs.
EDIT: This song is in E minor not G major. However they both are very similar as both has F# only. Difference is E minor gives off a sadder tone while G major a more lively tone. Don't worry though this does not affect the tutorial. But just take note of this :)
Thanks for watching :D
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! :D
