The Love You Save — Falling Notes Piano Tutorial
31 people have learned this song
Watch "The Love You Save" by The Jackson 5 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 G, 120 BPM.
This arrangement is a fantastic workout for your left hand — that walking bass pattern at 120 BPM demands steady, even eighth notes while your right hand handles chord stabs and melodic fills on top.
You're working through eleven chords in G major, and the trickiest transitions will be moving between Bm7 and Am7 quickly, then jumping to that unexpected E major chord, which sits outside the key and requires a quick hand-position shift.
Start hands-separate at around 80 BPM, focusing on getting that walking bass smooth and automatic before you layer the right hand in.
Once you combine them, loop the verse section until the groove feels locked — the syncopated rhythmic feel is everything here, so resist the urge to rush through chord changes.
A common stumble is letting the bass pattern fall apart during those E and D7 transitions; isolate those two-bar spots and drill them ten times each.
Keep your pedal use minimal — this is a tight, funky pop-rock feel, and too much sustain will muddy that walking line.
This is the song that'll really solidify your ability to keep a steady, independent left hand while your right hand plays rhythmically against it.
