Hey hi here's another Charlie Puth video only this time I figured we should finally maybe actually look at his actual music. Also please check out the merch if you're interested I'll love you forever, but also probably still will if you don't so that's ok too.

@koshjim3688

3 жыл бұрын

Sydney Dumoit Actually anyone can do what Charles does believe it or not, it just takes a shit ton of practice not perfect pitch. Basically in relative pitch, instead of hearing the notes as its specific note, people with relative pitch can hear notes based on its function of the key its in. So for example even though he cant hear that a certain note is a C he can tell that its the 4th degree in the scale because of intervals. So with a really good relative pitch it can be pretty much as good as perfect pitch! Ive been playing piano for a couple years and have the ability to play things I hear as well (not as quick as charles of course but Im definitely getting there)

Charles and Charlie HAVE TO meet. It's essential to everyone's well being. Wow guys, thanks for all the likes. I never expected to get anywhere near 500. Also Charles, you should listen to Charlie's arrangement of "In my blood" by Shawn Mendes. I think u will like it.

Charlie's use of space to compliment the sound is amazing. He doesn't play a very busy solo and it really helps listeners, especially when they aren't as appreciative of really technically complex solos.

I love how I understand absolutely nothing about Jazz music theory or how it works, but it's really addicting to watch him being himself and enjoying the chord progressions that I don't understand about.

“Boy” was legit my fave song on this album-that groovy syncopation, the playful melody over that awesome chord progression... hats all the way off to him for this banger! 🙌🏾

Thank you so much for this. Being in the "pop" sphere I think that charlie puth is often passed over for his musicianship. This song has always been my favorite on the album because of the incredible level of detail put into into it. Thank you for making a video that showcases this. Charlie puth is one of the rare artists in the modern music industry that still cares for the craft of composition despite it being for mainstream consumption. This song showcases his true understanding of jazz and pop musical elements as well as his understanding of music in general.

M G This song is so incredibly underrated. It should have been a single

First line of the keys solo is ALMOST “not anymore there’s a blanket” - Bill Wurtz :)

We need a pop cover collab with Adam Neely and Charles NOW

Have you ever thought of getting a loop pedal or loop station of some sort to play chords or stuff and then add notes or other things over it while explaining? May not work for you, just a suggestion. You could always try and see if it fits. Anyway love your stuff, keep it up!

That bassline is 🔥

I can ‘air piano’ play that solo like a freakin boss though.

I was watching a video (for the 15th time) of you breaking down Charlie's piano playing literally about 4 hours ago. Said at the end: "OMG if he would only listen to BOY." Prayers answered.

ADAM NEELY!! all of my favorite youtubers are collabing and i’m HERE FOR IT

Charlie Puth perfectly infuses the best elements of a bunch of genres into one.. Pop melodies, jazz chord progressions, funk inspired bass lines and R&B inspired drum patterns...this is why we love him! No one else does it like he does

I never really understood Puth’s musical talent until I heard this song randomly at the LA county fair. I’m not a Puth stan BUT I do love this song

This is my favorite song of Charlie's. First time I heard it, I think I hit the replay at least 200 times...yes, all day. Some more the next day as well.

So glad u chose Boy. Its one of my faves of Charlie. Charlie is amazing. Mother is also fabulous.

This song was on repeat for me when I checked out this album, voicenotes. It's a really likable album with a lot of re-play value

To be honest, I've never heard this song before...but it sounds so interesting. I'm going to listen to it after this video.

I like how you made your hair look like the The Great Wave off Kanagawa for this video.

Bringing up a new channel in the crowd and bringing entertaining and quality educational content to the table at the same time is pretty darn hard. You, sir, are officially nailing it.

This was amazing, dude! Ever since Voicenotes came out 2 years ago, I have always gravitated back to this song because of its sick groove and overall phenomenal sound production, and now, two of the best jazz-tubers have mentioned and done an analysis of the dang song. Although many of Puth's songs are great in their own right, this song deserves this special treatment more than anyone, and I would hardly recommend any other of his songs more than this one. Keep up with your great content!

10:43 I have to learn this solo at any cost; even if it takes me 17 more months or years

Charles: this is one of the things Adam was telling me about me: 👀 Adam Neely: comments on the video me: 👀 👀 👀 👀 👀

Thank you for appreciating Charlie!! Also, thank you for being the amazing musician you are. Lastly, thank you for reviewing my favorite Charlie Puth song.

I've been listening to Voicenotes since it came out and it's so nice to hear a new perspective about the other tracks besides the title. Also, Charles is mindblowingly good at picking up the jazz solo! I couldn't even imitate that in my head

This video right here one of the best videos on youtube for me. Such energy, technicality, details, excitement and it's modern and fun to watch. Well done Charles!

5:50 His thoughts seem like they would be "perfection"

THANK YOU FOR DOING THIS. One of my all-time favorite songs, and this only made me appreciate it more.

Love that bass line when it powers into the song with the drums.

"How Long" from same album is more conventional but still beautifully arranged and funky as hell. You Puth me on to him big time.

Petition for Charles to make his own music, that would be interesting I think

i may not always know what he’s talking about but the enthusiastic review of charlie puth’s songs and also other songs in general is so nice 🥰

So great to hear Charles pulling apart my favorite Charlie Puth song (That's putting it above so many that blow me away), BOY! When it first came out, I kept saying, "why isn't this a single……why isn't the world being exposed to the FULL CHARLIE PUTH?". Obvious! A bit too sophisticated for his pop audience. Still, that may be underestimating others who listen to this genre hungering for something as amazing as this! But most of all it's great to hear someone as talented as Cornell singing the praises of my favorite musician!

I always love listening to you break down components of songs! And hearing what you’re jazzed about (heh) and just things you find interesting or funky is really cool!

I haven't even watched your video, but Boy was by far my favourite song on Voicenotes 💯

Yaasss!! Thank you for your analysis! Love this song. I remember having the same reaction you had listening to “Boy” for the first time, realizing what I thought was the beat was not the beat but actually the rhythmic motif. Everything about this song is just perfect. Love it!! Thanks for sharing!

Bro your theory videos are super fun and really helpful! Thanks so much for making this! ❤️❤️❤️ You KILLED THE SOLO by the way haha!!

I had a enormous grin on my face the whole time I was watching this video. Such a great song and a great analysis. I love your smart, joyful approach and I feel like I learn something from every one of your videos!

Charles! Dude, your listening skills are amazing. Have you used any specific ear training exercises or routines? Or would you say your ability to quickly discern what you're hearing is a result of doing music at a high level for many years? For melodic lines, do you hear intervals or do you know the pitches after establishing the key? I'm working on building my skills and I'm curious how it works for you. Love your content!

@1337-Nathaniel

Hey! I'm 9 months late with a comment, but I think a LOT of Charles' listening skills are coming from experience. When he finds the first note or chord, he can pretty reliability find the next note/chord he hears, by referencing what he hears against what he played before and which note/chord is most likely to follow it. (He explains this sorta in the Charlie Puth 'perfect pitch' video.)

Boy is definitely one of my favorite Charlie Puth songs🙏🏼🙏🏼

Your videos keep getting better and better! Great work dude!!

You're so humble for a man with an amazing talent!!

I think it would be fun to see charles review his old stuff, see what he thinks of them now

"Boy"? Omg, what a song man. I think is one of his top 3

This is my favorite song out of this album tbh the chord progression is just shining.

I had fun with this. Thanks for making it that way. I love Adam and Jacob, too Cheers to Charlie. Love David

Check out Charlie’s “Done For Me (Jazz Version)”!

I’m kinda conflicted about Charlie. I think his musicianship is fantastic (obviously) and that it shows in the production and instrumentation of his songs, but I just feel that his lyrics are.....well, kinda basic. He’s talked before about how his lyric-writing is “literal” and “straightforward”....I just think the juxtaposition does himself a disservice and that some more lyrical creativity would take his music up a level!

@jinsory5582

I think a large part of that really is intentional, Charlie probably isn't as much a lyrical genius as he is a producer and musician. Therefore I feel he gives more liberty to the music itself. I know he is a competent lyricist, but I feel that it's not as much an expression of his creative output as much as the rest of the music. Of course industry pressure is always there, hit songs don't get popular for their complexity, they do because of how much people have heard it, how 'fresh' it is to the eyes of the media, and how much marketing is put into it. The more complex the lyrics are the more people 'seem' to be alienated by it or dismiss it since at the end of it all, nearly all hit songs are songs you play at the club, in the car, or alone in your room because you're completely tuned out of the lyrics regardless. Of course this is not to say that lyrics with a larger or more-complex story behind them don't get awards or become hits, they do, but the complexity in the lyrics is usually a surprisingly-small factor of its success, but rather something people and the media throw around to praise this song whether or not its lyrics are truly meaningful.

Been a Charlie Puth fan for a long time and also being a musician, I aspire to be like quite similar to Charlie musically, love when you post vids with Charlie in and breaking down his songs like chord progressions, tempos and just helping me a lot more in the music theory side..
