hi, my name is shane and im in a coldplay tribute band (coldplace) i would just like to say that if any one would like any help on playing the piano to any coldplay songs then i would be happy to help if i can and also this site is great!

You can help me :D ...What are the notes for your left hand for Clocks? I got the right hand part down, But not the left.

you play on the left hand single notes, first is d# then c# then c not chords, try that if you have a problem i will try to explain it better

basically everytime you play the d# on your right hand in the first pattern you play the d# on the left hand so the note is doubled that goes for the second and third pattern, i really hope this does help

The bridge to Politik, I have it down but I don't think it's right. Btw, is that you who sings for coldplace? If so, you got a good voice. I listened to clocks.

oh, btw, did you change around the main riff on Clocks? It sounds slightly different from how I play it.

this is what i play for politik

left hand bass notes F C# G# D# D#

right hand notes (c f g#) ( c# f a#) ( d# g# c ) ( d# g# a#) (d# g a#)

 

then just repeat till the end hope this helps you out and thanks for the nice comments about clocks,

i have just realised that i have been playing a wrong note in clocks for ages its on the second riff it is ( c# a# f ) and not (c# g# f )

cheers eagle

Correct-a-mondo :D

cheers gas-man

sorry but i made a mistake on politik but corrected it now sorry about that

you play on the left hand single notes' date=' first is d# then c# then c not chords, try that if you have a problem i will try to explain it better[/quote']

 

thanks! I'll try it. :D

no probs :)

it works for me.... Thanks again. :wink3: :P :D

hey!

i'm also a piano-lover!

i just have a question: i once found on internet, and the link must be here somewhere, the coldplay notes for all the songs...so far no problem...but, when i play it with the cd (for example the scientist) it matchs with the singing but if i listen to the music it sounds awfully false, just if i were completely untuned, but my piano is tuned!!!!

so is chris playing on an untuned piano or what am i doing wrong?...

just wandering will you be able to find the link again or write the notes or chords that you are playing cos chris want be using an untuned piano and it will be easier for me to figure out were your going wrong if i know what notes your playing, sorry i cant be more of a help

yeah i listened to your clocks recording and it sounded a little off on some notes. I play the same thing with the left as i do in the right hand just in octaves.

yeah cant believe i didn't realise i was playing a wrong note but played along to the dvd last night and its right now but its good to know there is people here who want to help eachother out

so here's the link:

it seems to be just a copy from the book...

 

but i didn't understanded if you sorted out what's wrong, because for me it sounds false on scientist, politik, clocks, amsterdam, well quite all the songs (it's always like half a tone or rather less thant that, cause the singing on it is ok...)

 

so thanks there if you can get it, because i'm searching since five months...

sorry but i made a mistake on politik but corrected it now sorry about that

That's ok, cause I didn't read it until now, lol. Thanks Shane.y

this is for inlovewithlondon sorry dont know your name

try this for the scientist first verse

left hand bass notes (d a ) (f a#) (f a) (f g)

right hand chords (c d f a) (d f a#) (c f a ) (c f g)

you will know then wether its the piano or book, this sounds correct when played to the scientist on AROBTTH, hope this helps you out.

hey!

 

thanks so much i'll try it just now...

wasn't there the last days, thats why i didn't answer...

my name's matt...

 

thanks!!!!!!!!!!

no worries matt hope this works for you :)

i dunno but for me its sounding awfully false even if i doi your thing...

 

maybe its because im trying it on the keyboard in my room or maybe its something with the record or with my hifi....

 

i guesse its just 2 or 3 commas but that is axful for me...

 

sorry for beeing so annoying, maybe im just shit in piano (which i actually don't hope beacause it would have been ten years for nothing hehe....

if a record speed is not bang on 33.3333333......rpm then it will be out of key and also if you are playing to a tape which tapes can get stretched and sound out of key only very slight but noticable when playing along with an instument that is in tune. i suggest playing your tracks through a computer then you will know if its your hi fi or keyboard. dont worry you aint being a pain.

shane dude.. how old are you?
