AhDoe – Music as an International Language

Just a brief update from myself…

When you are in the midst of transition, many things come in and you just have to accept, adapt and go on…

Predicting these all to happen few months back, I have already worked on a plan to produce more music sheets whenever I can and watch more movies and dramas to get myself inspired for new songs (That’s just an excuse, hehe…) 

Today, I am really really exhausted to cope with the change, but still feel very happy because I’ll give myself a break after this.

Don’t worry, I still have some piano sheets in hands, but probably still need to fine tune a bit before I post them here.

Thanks for the support and patience~

If you have been reading AhDoe.com, you’d find that I have created all the piano sheets in PDF format.

Instead of midi files, overture files, Finale files, scorch files and all other files that musical notation software are able to open, I chose PDF. Of course there are reasons behind this:

1. PDF is common among computer users. It is almost on par with Microsoft Document.
2. Users don’t have to install other software to read the digital piano sheets.
3. The sheet music alignment has been preset and fixed, you print what you see. As simple as that!
4. File size is small, easy to pass around if you want.
5. Readable foreign characters such as Chinese and Japanese for users.
6. Piano Sheets are “zoom-able” with PDF
7. Original and hard to modify.

Only regret is that you can’t listen to a PDF file. This is why I am considering to include the audio file together with the piano sheets in future. This will be helpful to those who are rather weak in sight-reading.

Yes, that is still in progress, and hopefully Ah Doe will bring you good news soon!

This Mario that I super love, is “inhuman“!
 
To be precise, he is not even human!!
 
But…
 
I still super Love him….

 

Shall I introduce which one is Mario?

Mario is Italian, and he only eats itsy bitsy teenie weenie Red/Green dot mushrooms. I think he will also eat charcoal mushrooms if we serve him.
 
Although you know that he had so many enemies than friends, you still feel safe to be with him. Any kind of monsters, cute but evil creatures won’t scare you…
 
Too bad, this guy is married with babies who looked really like their Papa.

Mario’s Babies.

If you love Mario as I do, you’d love Super Mario’s Theme songs as well.

How I miss my memorable childhood…

“Suddenly I see” is one of my favourite songs recently, and I’m having fun with the piano arrangement. Wee~

.

Sang by KT Tunstall, a Scottish singer who looks young but sounds mature in this album which was released in 2005.

Oh gosh, how come I’m always late at nice things?

By the way, this song has been playing at the radio stations, boutique shops, movie series or some other places that I could not even remember. The chorus part is catchy with “So there I see….” and sounds so stylish. I guessed without KT Tunstall, it won’t be legendary.

This song is in D Major, so is the piano arrangement. 2 black notes will not be fatal I guess. So, let’s enjoy playing it and be rhythmic!

Besides the infamous “The Cowboy is Busy“(牛仔很忙) from Jay’s latest album, his “Rainbow” (彩虹) is getting a lot of attention as well.

 

 I am only a bear with a rainbow logo 🙁

With a simple accompaniment with guitar at the beginning, this song is gentle, sweet but sounds a little tragic when you understand its content and especially after you have watched its MTV.

How about the lyrics?

~.~.~.~. ~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~

Tell me where I can find rainbows,
Can you return my wish to me?
Why the sky seems so quiet
All the clouds came towards me

Is there any facemask for me?
Saying too much about getting over an emotion will end up getting it unrealized
Perhaps time is a kind of antidote
but it is also a poison that I am consuming right now

How can I go to sleep without seeing your smile?
Your shadow is so near yet I could not even hug it
The Sun still orbits around without Earth
I can still go on without any reasons

I know it’s easy for you to leave me,
You said dependence is our obstacle,
Can you not confiscate my love even if we decide to let go?
Just assume that I only understand the point in the end

~.~.~.~. ~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~

The Chinese lyrics can be found in my piano sheet, I have included them in the sheet so that you’ll know where you are at, or perhaps you can even sing along with it while playing the piano!

Haha…so considerate huh?

I expect that this song will be another “hitto” throughout the year. Get ready to hear it everywhere again.
