"You Light Up My Life" is ballad written by Joe Brooks. The song became the most successful single of the 1970s and set a new hot 100 record for the longest reign at No. 1
In this song "You Light Up My Life", I show you how to take a tune from its basic harmony ( I IV V7 ) to advanced sophisticated chords.
"You Light Up My Life" is theme song of the Titanic Movie in 1997. The music is written by James Horner, lyrics by Walter Afanaseiff and recorded by Celine Dion. This became Dion's biggest hit and one of the best selling singles of all time.
Here's the Secret Tip to this Song: There is a change of Key at the bridge to bring the song to a higher intensity. The song begins like many standards with the 2-5 chords: Dm7 G7. Even though the first section of the song is in the Key of C, C Chord is not even used at all in the arrangement. Em7 is used in place of C for the melodic flow of the song.
We are going to follow a Play by Ear Procedure:
First, we need to establish a harmonic foundation to the song with basic chords so that you understand how complex chords come into play. You are going to improvise the song with basic chord progression by EAR.
I put in a section on Easy Improvisation. I show you different ways to improvise around the chord progressions so that you learn "tone motion voice leading". Even when you don't play the actual melody of the song, you can hear the song in the background when you play the harmonic chord progressions. This is a good ear training program to help you play many standard and pop songs by EAR.
