[How Money played it] Introduction (part 3)

**IMPORTANT**
Please note everything I post here, are only my opinions and research... I am just trying to help, not earning a single cent here...(and even paying for extra electrical fees)
You can choose not to read any of these if you don't agree with me..
I am sorry if I don't really remember any musical term...(I have quitted playing piano since 4 years ago...don't think my memory can last tt long, especialli when i did not lyk my theory part :p)

Common Parts in a Song

(Note: This is my own definition since I can't find an exact definition which is suitable and also, some of the names were 'invented' by myself.. PLEASE NO BASHING, if not, I will just stop here and say goodbye)

1) Introduction


- Most difficult part in playing (especially when it is pure piano)
- Have to play at least 90% the same since it is easy to spot differences and errors XD
- Keep it simple = Don't include too many chords
- Usually start off with p and then crescendo 
- May not always exist - For example: Fall in love (Taeyang & Aoyama Thelma)



2) Verse A


- Part when the singer starts to sing
- Mainly the 1st 4 sentences in the song
- Usually quite simple (chords in background for LH)
- Chords remain repetitive




3) 'Pre-chorus'


- Short part before coming to the Chorus
- Crucial in bringing the mood for the Chorus
- Chords are good to use :D
- The type of chords used may be slighty different from others




4) Chorus


- Most exciting part of the song
- Usually with  a very distinctive melody..
- Repetitive LH playing ^^
- Chords are very easy to grasp at this point




5) Rapping


- Since there are not much main melody (vocal's singing), I would usually play its background music to replace the 'gap'.
- Chords are vey much repetitive




6) Last Connecting Point


- Comes before the last repeat of chorus
- Especially when the main chord changed. For example: It was in A minor at 1st, but towards the end (just before the last chorus), it became Bb minor. (Refer to 'I am a Loner' by C.N. Blue for examples)
- Very confusing for some somgs.
- Require good hearing




7) Ending


- Kpop songs usually end with a short and simple ending
- Some songs even have no ending at all! :)
