Behind Blue Eyes — Falling Notes Piano Tutorial

Watch "Behind Blue Eyes" by The Who in falling notes style — like Synthesia. Color-coded notes fall onto the keyboard in real time. Practice left hand, right hand, or both. Key of E, 120 BPM.

Tip: Start at 50% speed to get comfortable with the fingering, then work your way up to full tempo.
