- Effectively yes β it's the piano-only backing for "Watch What Happens", with no vocals. You can also slow it down to practice tricky verses, then bring it back to full tempo.

- Absolutely. Singers, guitarists, violinists, wind players, and instrumental practice in general all work β the piano holds the harmony so you can carry the melody on whatever instrument you play.

Perfect for singers, lead instruments, and ensemble practice.
