This is a very beautiful rap song from Eminem, Royce Da 5'9, where the singing part is done gorgeously by Bruno Mars. It's quite straightforward and easy to play since most of the parts are just repeating, and the entire song is sung in C Major. On top of that, the lyrics are also very meaningful.

Please click HERE for the video. You will need it while reading a printed color copy of this tutorial. It's much easier to learn that way from the feedback of most people on my website. Please read my previous postings on how to use these tutorials.  

Introduction :

The song just Starts!

[Bruno Mars]
This one's for you and me,
living out our dreams
We're all right where we should be
With my arms out wide, I open my eyes
And now all I wanna see
Is a sky full of lighters
A sky full of lighters

(Left Hand starts with the lower Octaves on each chords. The chords are C, E, A, F. Upon playing the octaves, you can jump an octave higher to play each chord like how I've played it, please do refer to the video. After the first jumping around part, just gracefully run your fingers around the chords. Right hand should be playing the melody according to the lyrics sung by Bruno Mars)


[Eminem]
By the time you hear this I will have already spiralled up
I would never do nothing to let you cowards fuck my world up
If I was you, I would duck, or get struck like lightening,
Fighters keep fighting, put your lighters up, point em' skyward uh
Had a dream I was king, I woke up, still king…
This rap game's nipple is mine for the milking,
Till nobody else even fucking feels me, till' it kills me
I swear to god I'll be the fucking illest in this music
There is or there ever will be, disagree?
Feel free, but from now on I'm refusing to ever give up
The only thing I ever gave up is using. No more excuses.
Excuse me if my head is too big for this building
And pardon me if I'm a cocky prick but you cocks are slick
Poppin shit on how you flipped ya life around, crock-of-shit
Who you dicks try to kid, flipped dick, you did the opposite
You stayed the same, cause cock backwards is still cock you pricks
I love it when I tell em shove it
Cause it wasn't that long ago when Marshall sat, luster lacked, flustered
Cuz he couldn't cut mustard, muster up nothing
Brain fuzzy, cause he's buzzin', woke up from that buzz
Now you wonder why he does it, how he does it
Wasn't cause he had buzzards circle around his head
Waiting for him to drop dead, was it?
Or was it, cause them bitches wrote him off
Little hussy ass fusses, cause f-ck it, guess it doesn't matter now, does it
What difference it make?
Whats it take, to get it through your thick skulls
As if this aint some bullshit
People don't usually come back this way
From a place that was dark as I was in
Just to get to this place
Now let these words be like a switch blade to a haters rib cage
And let it be known from this day forward
I wanna just say thanks cause your hate is what gave me the strength
So let em bic's raise cause I came with 5'9 but I feel like I'm 6'8
(For the rap part, just gently play on the chords C, E, A, F. Then subsequent parts you'll hear some notes being played on the higher side, mimic that with your right hand. It sounds like C C G, E D B B G, D C A A E, G A F F C, F G A B repeat)



[Bruno Mars]
This one's for you and me, living out our dreams
We're all right where we should be
Lift my arms out wide I open my eyes
And now all I wanna see
Is a sky full of lighters
A sky full of lighters

(Again, Left Hand starts with the lower Octaves on each chords. The chords are C, E, A, F. Upon playing the octaves, you can jump an octave higher to play each chord like how I've played it, please do refer to the video. After the first jumping around part, just gracefully run your fingers around the chords. Right hand should be playing the melody according to the lyrics sung by Bruno Mars) 


[Royce Da 5'9"]
By the time you hear this I'll probably already be outtie
I advance like going from toting iron to going and buying 4 or 5 of the homies the iron man Audi
My daddy told me slow down, boy, you goin to blow it
And I aint gotta stop the beat a minute
To tell Shady I love him the same way that he did Doctor Dre on the Chronic
Tell him how real he is or how high I am
Or how I would kill for him for him to know it
I cried plenty tears, my daddy got a bad back
So it's only right that I write till he can march right into that post office and tell em to hang it up
Now his career's Lebron's jersey in 20 years
I'll stop when I'm at the very top
You shitted on me on your way up
It's 'bout to be a scary drop
Cause what goes up must come down
You going down on something you don't wanna see like a hairy box
Every hour, happy hour now
Life is wacky now
Used to have to eat the cat to get the pussy
Now I'm just the cats meoww, ow
Classic cow, always down for the catch weight like
Pacquiao
Ya'll are doomed
I remember when T-Pain aint wanna work with me
My car starts itself, parks itself and autotunes
Cause now I'm in the Aston
I went from having my city locked up
To getting treated like Kwame Kilpatrick
And now I'm fantastic
Compared to a weed high
And y'all niggas just gossipin' like bitches
on a radio and TV
See me, we fly
Y'all buggin out like Wendy Williams staring at a bee-hive
And how real is that
I remember signing my first deal and now I'm the second best I can deal with that
Now Bruno can show his ass,
without the MTV awards gag
(For the rap part, just gently play on the chords C, E, A, F. Then subsequent parts you'll hear some notes being played on the higher side, mimic that with your right hand. It sounds like C C G, E D B B G, D C A A E, G A F F C, F G A B repeat) 


[Bruno Mars]
You and I know what it's like to be kicked down
Forced to fight
But tonight we're alright
So hold up your lights
Let it shine
Cause this one's for you and me,
living out our dreams
We're all right where we should be

(Bridge on chords F, C, G, A back to F, C, G, A, G, F back to C. Play this part intensely!)



Lift my arms out wide I open my eyes
And now all I wanna see
Is a sky full of lighters
A sky full of lighters
(Back to original style and end nicely)

This is an amazing K-Pop from BigBang. The song is quite straightforward and repetitive. In order to learn this song skillfully, you'll need to learn to feel the music by watching the music video since it's kinda difficult to explain how I did it. I just watched the music video.

I know there are many Bieber Haters out there, but this is a really nice song to play, honestly. It's easy to play and it stirs a lot emotions to both players and listeners, which makes it kinda fun.

Introduction :

Use your Left Hand to play around with the note Eb. Just to create the effect of Anticipation, that's all.



[Chris Brown]
You’ve got that smile,
That only heaven can make.
I pray to God everyday,
That you keep that smile.

(Left Hand gracefully dances on chords Eb, Bb, C, Ab at your own pace. Right Hand plays the Melody according to the lyrics by ear with some chords)

There’s not a thing I won’t do.

[Bridge]
And baby, everything that I have is yours,
You will never go cold or hungry.
I’ll be there when you’re insecure,
Let you know that you’re always lovely.
Girl, cos you are the only thing that I got right now

(Left Hand remains the same on Eb, Bb, C, Ab, but play the Melody with more chords with your Right Hand to signify that both of them are singing together)


[Chorus]
One day when the sky is falling,
I’ll be standing right next to you,
Right next to you.
Nothing will ever come between us,
I’ll be standing right next to you,
Right next to you.

(Even for the Chorus, Left Hand remains the same on Eb, Bb, C, Ab, but play the Melody with more chords with your Right Hand to signify that both of them are singing together. Second Part softer with slight pauses)

You had my child,
You make my life complete.
Just to have your eyes on little me,
That’d be mine forever.

(Left Hand gracefully dances on chords Eb, Bb, C, Ab at your own pace. Right Hand plays the Melody according to the lyrics by ear with some chords)

And I have no fear
I know we’ll make it through

One day when the sky is falling
I’ll be standing right next to you
Ohh ohh ohh ohhhhh

(Almost Silent. Same chords as the Chorus)


[Chorus]
One day when the sky is falling,
I’ll be standing right next to you,
Right next to you.
Nothing will ever come between us,
I’ll be standing right next to you,
Right next to you.

(Chorus, Left Hand remains the same on Eb, Bb, C, Ab, but play the Melody with more chords with your Right Hand to signify that both of them are singing together. Second Part softer with slight pauses)

Stand by my side
When the sky falls
Oh baby
I’ll be there

That only heaven can make.
I pray to God everyday,

To keep you forever.
(Just keep repeating to the end)

This feels like a very motivational song from Lady Gaga. It's actually a love song, Gaga Style. It's not too difficult to be played on the piano as the key stays the same throughout the song. You just have to know the lyrics to play it. Definitely one of my favorite Lady Gaga song.

This is perhaps one of the most sincere and beautiful marriage proposal that I've ever seen. Moreover, its amazing video quality and shooting technique by Crazy Monkey Studio makes it stand out even more.
The song, A Thousand Years by Christina Perri, that I played on New Year's Eve was Inspired by Audrey Ooi Feng Ling ❤ Timothy Tiah Ewe Tiam

Audrey : This was played on the same out of tune piano that you played with Will & Carol. Congrats! and I still wanna meet Wendy, and now I wanna meet Tim too!

Tim : Congrats!! Daaaayyuuuummm!!! You just raised the bar LIKE A BOSS! Shouldn't have shown it to my girl!! Now both our expectations are "Mo-Mo-Mo-Monster Kill!!!"

LoLz, just kidding. Your Meme Proposal was Amazing! (We will cross paths, Mr. Nuffnang)

Happy New Year and Happy Marriage to both of you!

I DO NOT CHOOSE TO BE A COMMON MAN

It is my right to be uncommon. 
I seek opportunity, not security.
I do not wish to be a kept citizen, humbled and dulled by having the state look after me.

I want to take the calculated risk, 
to dream and to build, to fail and to succeed.
I refuse to barter incentive for a dole.
I prefer the challenges of life to the guaranteed existence.
I prefer the thrill of fulfillment to the stole calm of utopia.
I will not trade freedom for beneficence, nor my dignity for a handout.

I will never cower before any earthly master, nor bend to any threat.
It is my heritage to stand erect, proud, and unafraid; to think and act for myself.
To enjoy the benefits of my labor and to face the world boldly 
and say, “This I have done, and this is what it means to be a Man”

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dear YouTubers,

I wonder how many of you guys can relate to this. 


This is a Poem that I've deeply memorized.
I've recited the entire piece from my Heart. 
Notice why I highlighted the word "CHOOSE"? 
We always have the right to make choices.

Warmest Regards,

Ray Mak
 
 
Whatever your mind can conceive and believe it will achieve. Dream great dreams and make them come true.  Do it now!

You are unique. In all the history of the world there was never anyone else exactly like you, and in all the infinity to come there will never be another you. Never affirm self-limitations. What you believe yourself to be, you are.

To accomplish great things, you must not only act but also dream, not only plan but also believe. If you have built castles in the air your work need not be lost -- put foundations under them. Yes, you can -- Believing is magic.

You can always better your best. You do not know what you can do until you try. Nothing will come of nothing. If you don't go out on a limb, you're never going to get the fruit. There is no failure except in no longer trying.

Hazy goals produce hazy results. Clearly define your goals. Write them down, make a plan for achieving them. Just don't look back unless you want to go that way.

Defeat may test you; it need not stop you. If at first you don't succeed, try another way. For every obstacle there is a solution. Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. The greatest mistake is giving up.

Wishing will not bring success but planning, persistence and a burning desire will. There is a goldmine within you from which you can extract all of the necessary ingredients. Success is an attitude. Get yours right.

It is astonishing how short a time it takes for very wonderful things to happen. Now show us the colours of your RAINBOW


-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

PS : This Beautiful Poem was Passionately Color Printed with my Name on it, On a High Quality Color Paper, and Laminated, then given to me by a good friend, Low Yik Choon (My Dad's University Mate and also a Johannian (From St. John's Institution). 

I've never knew that I've always been using the first part of this Beautiful Poem as my motto of life at the bottom of my website.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Enjoy,

Warmest Regards,

Ray Mak

Dear YouTubers, Friends, Visitors,

I've placed all my Mp3s strategically in their most precise order in a different location within this website. Guess where they are? =) Grin....


These are High Quality Mp3 direct from their respective High Definition sources at 320kbps!!!!

Anyway, as usual, in order to make sure people who download my songs are genuine, and not thieves (like Alonzo Holt and many more on YouTube), I've made them a bit challenging to download. But once you get there, you're gonna enjoy them to the max! I promise!

Sincerely yours,
Ray Mak
