Chords for CHORD AI, Learn How To Play Your Favorite Songs NOW!

_ _ _ _ _ _ _
Today I'm going to do something that I've never done before,
and that is show you probably the best $9.99
that you could spend on an app, Chord AI.
It's been a revelation to me in a way,
because the way that I learn how to play,
I listen and I try to break down the chords
and that type of thing.
He was just telling me, he said,
"'Listen, when you do the first song in this app,
"'it's going to blow you away.'"
And so I was just a little skeptical,
but then I tried it.
We're going to see how this works.
I love the Al Jarreau stuff,
that the famous E piano from Orange Tree Samples,
we did take a look at that a few weeks ago.
And the reason why I like that piano
is because it was used on all of these Al Jarreau recordings.
So I wanted to make sure I could dive
into those classic Al Jarreau songs,
because I love what they've done.
I've already loaded it in.
So you can take a YouTube video
and it will analyze the chord structure
and it'll show you the chords.
You can see the chords for guitar or keyboard.
And of course I'm going to select the keyboard.
So let's [Eb] take a listen.
So watch what happens when it's analyzing this.
_ _ [Bbm] _
_ [F] _ So it's playing _ [Ab] and it's analyzing the chords
and [Db] showing you right there.
_ And it's just unbelievable.
_ [Ebm] _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _
Yeah, you can [Ab] just hear all those chords.
[Db] _ _ _ See the G major [Gb] 9.
♪ Without [Bb] a single root _ _ we can't just love [Db] [Gb] as if we're [Eb] _ _ [Eb] _ _
kind.
_ [Gb] _ _ [Bbm] _ And it just blew [G] me away.
_ I mean, [F] it reminds me of the first time
that I saw Melodyne take a stereo audio file
and break it down into individual notes.
It's amazing.
And here's another one I love to listen.
I [Ab] love Diana Krall.
One of the favorites from her is
Let's Face the Music and Dance.
I pulled it in.
This is one of my favorite Diana Krall.
So it's an F minor 11, _ _ _ _ _ _ [Db] D flat 9. _ _ _
_ Here we go.
_ [Ebm] _ _ _
[Ab] _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ [Eb] _ _ _
_ [Cm] _ _ _ [C] _ _ _
F [Ab] minor 9.
♪ There may be trouble [G] ahead
_ [C] _
_ [F] _ _ [Ab] but while [Eb] there's music and moonlight
[C] _ [Am] and love and romance,
[B] _ _
_ [G] _ let's face the [F] music and [G] dance.
_ _ [Ab] Yeah, so it breaks it down [N] for you.
Let's do something a little crazier.
So I'm gonna go select media.
I'm gonna go to YouTube and I'm gonna pick Tori Kelly's
Don't You Worry About a Thing.
And let's take a listen to how this works.
So you go to the YouTube browser,
you select the song that you want.
And what it does, it pulls it in
and it starts analyzing it.
And this is not a sponsored video or anything like that.
This is like, I just wanna share this discovery.
It's just a lot of fun.
It's a lot of fun to see that
because when I'm listening to music,
it's like I try to break it down like an MRI.
You know how an MRI will take and take slices as it scans.
So that's the way that I listen to [Gb] music
because I listen to it as a whole,
but then I listen to it in layers.
I try to break down the layers.
So I try to listen to the bass part by itself,
just try to isolate those different parts.
And so when you have the chord structures
kind of laid out for you,
it just [E] really is so cool to be able to see that laid out.
So, okay, so it analyzed it and [Eb] it breaks it down.
So let's see what happens here with this. _ _
_ [Ebm] Yeah.
_ _ _ Oh, yes.
♪ [Bb] Everybody's got a fate ♪
♪ But some don't know how to [Dbm] handle it ♪
♪ Who is [Eb] reaching out in vain ♪
♪ Just [Ebm] taking the things not [B] worth had [E] ♪
♪ But don't [Gb] you worry, _ _ [Gb] kid ♪
♪ You'll see it right _ _
[B] _ _ [Eb] _ _ [Db] when you check _
_ [E] _ [Eb] in ♪
♪ [Gb] _ _
[Ebm] They say you start [Ab] to drag ♪
♪ And [Gb] then you'll fall out [E] of place ♪
♪ Love's [Ebm] a filter bag ♪
♪ You better pull outside [Ab] ♪ _ _
Yeah.
[N] Don't you worry.
Yeah, so what you can do, _
it's crazy.
Okay, yes, you can slow it down.
So let's just do this.
[Gb] We can take speed and we can take the slider down
and go to like.6. ♪ [Gb] Don't you worry, _ [Bbm] _ baby [Gb] _ [B] _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _
_ _ [B] _ ♪ Yeah, see? _ [Gb] _ _ [F] _ _ _ _ [Eb] The other thing you can do, you can set loop points. So if there's a section you wanna learn. Yeah, and I heard of Cortify as well. I just haven't checked it. This is the first app that I've actually checked this out. And it's a lot of fun. It's a lot of fun to be able to just kind of visualize it. And then what you can do, so we can start playing this and we can expand the screen and it [Bb] shows the grid. [Ebm] So it's picking up the tempo transients and that type of thing, showing [Abm] you even the tablature [E] for guitar. [Db] ♪ Don't you [Ebm] worry, _ _ baby ♪ _ ♪ Everybody ♪ So it's a lot of fun. [Eb] See, you can fall down in there, but it's a great way to learn. It's a great way to learn songs and to break things down. It's really amazing. _ Yeah, well, this shows you voicing as well. So let me see. So let me go [Eb] back to piano. And when you _ tap on the, I'm tapping, touching the chord. So it shows you and you can hear how the chords are voiced. [Gb] So we can go that. _ _ _ _ _ _ [Dbm] Yeah. _ _ [Ebm] And I think that's pretty cool. So [G] you can actually touch the voicing and it just shows you [E] the layout. And so with me, once I hear it and kind of see it, get it in [Ab] my fingers, it's just like, it's [Gb] just so fun. So that's Chord.AI. And it was just really an amazing discovery for me.
