Somehow I managed to get a new YouTube video out this week - despite teaching two workshops and a TON of private students. This one was a special request by several viewers.When a Man Loves a Woman is a classic song in 12/8 time that has a very common chord progression and uses an accompaniment strategy that works great for a TON of songs.
What I love about making these videos is showing chording and accompaniment strategies that can be used for other songs. This strategy works for songs like Perfect by Ed Sheeran, Please Come Home For Christmas by the Eagles, Blueberry Hill and many more. Learn the strategy and have fun applying it to other songs.
Watch the video on my YouTube channel (link in bio) - we are almost at 10,000 subscribers!!!
