I'd Do Anything For Love by Meat Loaf — Easy Piano for Kids

This page shows “I'd Do Anything For Love by Meat Loaf in our color-coded kid songbook view — every note is colored by pitch (red C, orange D, yellow E, green F, blue G, purple A, pink B) and the lyrics sit directly under each note, so children can sing along while they play. The song is in the key of D at 105 BPM, a medium-difficulty arrangement — try slowing the tempo down using the BPM control.

Tips for parents & teachers

  • Start at 50% tempo using the BPM control. Speed up only when your child can play through without stopping.
  • Turn on the metronome from the top bar to build steady rhythm.
  • Use the segmented OFF / C / 1 button to toggle note labels on the staff and keys — kids learn note names faster with letters showing.
  • Tap a measure number on the timeline to jump to a specific section for repeat practice.

Teacher’s notes

This arrangement sits in D major at a steady 105 BPM, but don't let that moderate tempo fool you — the dramatic feel comes from sustaining long, expressive phrases while your left hand navigates fourteen distinct chord shapes, including some that'll stretch you, like C#dim7 and Gmaj7. Pay special attention to the Bm–Bm7–Em7 transitions; keep your pinky anchored where possible so the voice leading stays smooth. Your right hand will carry a vocal-style melody that demands confident, singing tone — lean into the keys rather than pecking. I'd suggest learning the big chorus section hands-separate first, then loop it at around 70 BPM until the chord changes feel automatic before bringing it up to tempo. Watch your pedal discipline through the Asus4-to-A resolutions; lifting late will blur those satisfying moments where tension resolves. This is the piece that'll make power-ballad chord progressions second nature in your hands.
