This page shows “Love” by Musiq Soulchild 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 C# at 100 BPM, a medium-difficulty arrangement — try slowing the tempo down using the BPM control.
This arrangement is a great workout for extended chord voicings — you'll cycle through major 9ths, minor 9ths, and dominant 7ths almost constantly, so getting comfortable stretching into those wider shapes in C# is half the battle. Your left hand keeps a steady block bass pattern, which is forgiving at 100 BPM, but watch the transitions between chords like Amaj9 and B into C#m9 — those shifts move you across the keyboard quickly, and rushing them is the number-one stumbling point I see. Start hands-separate at around 70 BPM, focusing on locking in your right-hand chord changes before layering the bass back in. Once both hands feel natural, loop the verse progression until the extended shapes sit under your fingers without you hunting for them. Light sustain pedal will help you connect the bigger jumps smoothly — just release on each chord change to keep the harmony clean. Stick with this one; it's the piece that'll make 9th chords feel like home in your hands.
