More about this title

About the Artist: Richard Marx

Richard Marx built his career on crafting accessible pop-rock songs with genuine emotional depth. His work in the 1980s and 1990s established him as a skilled melodist and recording artist, with several chart successes that showcased his ability to blend contemporary production with strong songwriting fundamentals.

Why we love this

This arrangement gives students a recognizable song with a straightforward harmonic structure and a melody that sits naturally under the hands. Adult contemporary pop-rock at the easy level opens doors for pianists who want to play songs from artists they actually hear on the radio, making practice feel relevant and rewarding.

What to expect

A warm, sincere pop-rock ballad that sits comfortably in the singer-songwriter tradition. The melody carries real emotional presence, and the accompaniment supports rather than overwhelms, making it rewarding to learn and perform.

Who it's for

This is for adult pianists and intermediate to advanced beginner students who want to expand their repertoire beyond classical and folk material. It works well for anyone seeking to play contemporary popular music with solid musicality and without excessive technical demands.

How to get the most out of it

  • Maintain an even touch through the verse sections; resist the urge to rush the melody during emotional peaks.
  • Use the pedal sparingly to keep the harmony clear, especially if the left-hand accompaniment pattern is repetitive.
  • Listen to the original recording to capture the song's pacing and feel; the arrangement should serve the song's intent, not fight it.

How to use it

Include this in a recital or studio performance to showcase contemporary music literacy and to demonstrate that serious musicianship lives across all genres. It pairs well with other accessible popular arrangements as part of a mixed program or as a solo feature for a pianist who gravitates toward adult contemporary styles.

Skills your students will build

  • Playing melody with shape and phrasing in a contemporary idiom
  • Recognizing and executing repetitive left-hand accompaniment patterns
  • Balancing accompaniment and melody at the easy level
  • Interpreting chord changes in a pop-rock harmonic context
