      Relax your hand. If you strain to hit the keys you'll end up with carpel tunnel syndrome eventually. It's like writing; practice proper form and don't clench your hand around the pen, and you won't get writers' cramp.

    Lyrics-
    Achilles
    Achilles
    Achilles come down, won't you
    Get up off
    Get up off the roof?
    You're scaring us
    And all of us
    Some of us love you
    Achilles, it's not much but there's proof
    You crazy assed cosmonaut
    Remember your virtue
    Redemption lies plainly in truth
    Just humour us
    Achilles
    Achilles come down
    Won't you get up off
    Get up off the roof
    Achilles
    Achilles
    Achilles come down, won't you
    Get up off
    Get up off the roof?
    The self is not so weightless
    Nor whole and unbroken
    Remember the pact of our youth
    Where you go
    I'm going
    So jump and I'm jumping
    Since there is no me without you
    Soldier on
    Achilles
    Achilles come down
    Won't you get up off
    Get up off the roof?
    Loathe the way they light candles in Rome
    But love the sweet air of the votives
    Hurt and grieve but don't suffer alone
    Engage with the pain as a motive
    Today of all days
    See
    How the most dangerous thing is to love
    How you will heal and you'll rise above
    Achilles
    Achilles
    Achilles
    Jump now
    You are absent of cause
    Or excuse
    So self-indulgent
    And self-referential
    No audience could ever want you
    You crave the applause
    Yet hate the attention
    Then miss it, your act is a ruse
    It is empty, Achilles
    So end it all now
    It's a pointless resistance
    For you
    Achilles
    Achilles
    Just put down the bottle
    Don't listen to what you've consumed
    It's chaos, confusion
    And wholly unworthy
    Of feeding and it's wholly untrue
    You may feel no purpose
    Nor a point for existing
    It's all just conjecture and gloom
    And there may not be meaning
    So find one and seize it
    Do not waste your self on this roof
    Hear those bells ring deep in the soul
    Chiming away for a moment
    Feel your breath course frankly below
    See life as a worthy opponent
    Today of all days
    See
    How the most dangerous thing is to love
    How you will heal and you'll rise above
    Crowned by an overture bold and beyond
    Ah, it's more courageous to overcome
    You want the acclaim
    The mother of mothers (it's not worth it Achilles)
    More poignant than fame
    Or the taste of another (don't listen Achilles)
    But be real and just jump
    You dense motherfucker (you're worth more, Achilles)
    You will not be more
    Than a rat in the gutter (so much more than a rat)
    You want my opinion (no one asked your opinion)
    My opinion you've got
    You asked for my counsel (no one asked for your thoughts)
    I gave you my thoughts
    Be done with this now
    And jump off the roof
    Can you hear me Achilles?
    I'm talking to you
    I'm talking to you
    I'm talking to you
    I'm talking to you
    Achilles come down
    Achilles come down
    Throw yourself into the unknown
    With pace and a fury defiant
    Clothe yourself in beauty untold
    And see life as a means to a triumph
    Today of all days
    See
    How the most dangerous thing is to love
    How you will heal and you'll rise above
    Crowned by an overture bold and beyond
    Ah, it's more courageous to overcome

    To all the people who are intimidated by the left hand, don’t worry! Rotate your hand! If you’re starting this song, at first you’re going to play it really slow, this is fine. Your rotations in this stage should be exaggerated, and the faster you get, the less rotation, but there will always be a rotation there. The more you practice the more familiar you are with the piece, and the easier it will be the play. Hope this makes it a bit easier to play!

    Hmm I don't know, the left hand is quite repetative and not increasing tension as in the song. The "bridge" was very dry too and the right could have done one octave deeper on Achilles inner voice. But it's very accurate! I understand the approach. :)

    • @sillyqueerbastard

      In the song the "left hand" is repetitive, but I agree about the bridge, and an octave change would've been really cool.

    Honestly, I had more trouble playing the one sequence with both of them in the beginning than I did with just the left hand. That pattern is easier on the left than it is on the right, so I kept fumbling with that. It’s easy once you get used to it though, so don’t worry guys. Just try it out it’ll be fun I promise!

      @OpalBerries Před 3 lety +7

      Hey, I play the piano. Let me say, yes. Your left hand can play that. it looks like a lot, but it's just an arpeggio pattern. You'll get it easily if you have the correct hand position. Plus, this transcription is missing about a minute worth of melodic material. I'm actually making my own piano arrangement, and I'm following the same logic of this one because the cello accompaniment is pretty much constant except for a small excerpt. My advice is that if your left-hand gets fatigued easily then you can just play the block chord; in other words, instead of arpeggiating it, just play all the notes at once for each beat until the chord changes. Best of luck.
