More about this title

About the Artist: Simple Plan

Simple Plan formed in Montreal in 1994 and rose to prominence in the early 2000s as pop punk became a mainstream force. The band's accessible songwriting and high-energy performances resonated with audiences worldwide, establishing them as reliable hitmakers in the pop rock space. Their catalog includes instantly recognizable songs that have soundtracked countless teen and young adult experiences.

Why we love this

"Addicted" sits in that sweet spot where students immediately want to learn it because they know the song, and the piano/vocal arrangement gives them a genuine entry point to pop rock on their own instrument. The chord progression and melody patterns reward musicality without requiring classical virtuosity, making it motivating for pianists in the intermediate range.

What to expect

Upbeat and engaging, with the infectious energy that made the original a radio staple. The arrangement captures the conversational quality of the vocal melody while keeping the piano grounded and propulsive, creating something that feels singable yet musically complete on its own.

Who it's for

Pianists who sing or vocalists with piano skills, typically middle school through adult, who want to explore contemporary pop rock on their instrument. This works equally well as a solo arrangement or as a springboard for students exploring songwriting and arrangement.

How to get the most out of it

  • Nail the vocal rhythm first, separate from the piano part. Pop songs rely on rhythmic precision in the vocal line, and students often rush or lag when learning both simultaneously.
  • Use the chord symbols to explore variations in the left hand once the basic accompaniment is solid. This arrangement gives you room to personalize the groove.
  • Balance the vocal melody so it sits clearly above the accompaniment without overwhelming it. Pop vocals sit forward in the mix, but the piano should still anchor the harmonic foundation.

How to use it

Ideal for student recitals, informal performance settings, or as a bridge between classical study and contemporary music exploration. It also works well in a mixed recital program to demonstrate that serious musicianship applies across genres.

Skills your students will build

  • Integrating melodic and harmonic awareness while playing and singing simultaneously
  • Reading and interpreting chord symbols in a pop context
  • Managing rhythm and phrasing in a contemporary pop style
  • Developing independence between hands while maintaining vocal line integrity
