The Beatles – Let It Be – Week 1

by Jesse Michelsen on March 7, 2011

Ah, a new day and a new challenge. This month, I’ll be covering The Beatles hit, Let It Be. I love the song, and the meaning behind it. It’s great stuff and I’m excited to get going. After one week, I’ve got kind of the basic tune down but the left hand gets hairy pretty quick and I get lost there, so all you get it some rough right hand work today.

Enough chatter, check out the vid

Is it just me, or is there no video??

No worries, I thought it was my computer or something. Sounds good so far! Left hand always seems to be the hardest for me too, so good luck!

Nope, just me working too fast I think 🙂

My first song was actually a lot more left-handed than right, but it had a good balance of complexity which is probably why I didn’t have too much trouble with it. The left-hand here is very spread out and is like filler, so it’s hard for me to get it in sync with the rest of the song.

Nice Pick Jesse. Look forward to hearing it next week with the left hand.
