What are the piano cords for the song Lucy by Skillet from there new album Awake?

Q. Ok so I think the repeated notes are a D and a B natural but the lower ones I cant tell would love to do this song for my talent show but I need help! Please&Thankyou
Your Fellow Panhead. :)

A. There's not really a short explanation I can give but I'll try.

Anytime you want chords to a song, google "(name of song) chords"
It doesn't matter if the instrument it is, they all have pitch that has to match.
So it makes no difference if it says guitar or what ever. As you improve you just
learn to improvise to make it sound good on what ever instrument you play.

Also I recommend that you learn the Nashville Number system and start improving your relative pitch so you'll begin to sound songs out by year. The NNS is just like shape notes except with numbers.
You have 12 major musical scales which all contain "Do rei mi fa so la ti do" but instead of the shape notes (the do rei me) you use numbers "1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 1" Do = 1 rei = 2 mi =3 fa=4 so=5 la= 6 ti=7 and do =1

C scale = C=1 D=2 E=3 F=4 G=5 A=6 B=7 C=1
G scale = G=1 A=2 B=3 C=4 D=5 E=6 F#=7 G=1

If you start using numbers you will notice that all songs follow a certain pattern they are just keyed in different keys and your relative pitch will develop and you will start being able to sound songs out on your on. The song you want is chorded in G major

When your relative pitch starts to develop you'll notice alot of patterns like how 6 minor usually resolves to the 4 chord or how every time you play a 2 major chord it resolves to the 5 chord.

Remember the C scale your teacher made you do when you first began piano? You have 11 other major scales to learn to play (with the same fingering) (12 in all) and as you play them, don't forget to count.

Last thing. When the chord says C2 or C SUS, you don't have to play it that way, you can play just the normal C chord which is easier, the 2's and sus' just sound better. Your chords are in the link I gave you.

Original Question

What's the difference between harmonizing and actual singing?
Q. I get the 2 mixed up a lot. Like there's a rap group called bone thugz n harmony and they haromonize a lot in their songs. It actually sounds like they're singing. However, these guys are NOT singers they're rappers. But still, one could mistake them for rappers who actually sing in their songs. But that's not what they're doing because they're harmonizing.

So what's the difference between the 2? They both sound like actual singing. But one's different from the other right?

A. Think of it as the differerence between 1 note on the piano and a chord. You can have 2 part harmony (like your rappers) or 3 or 4 part, Usually thre is no more than that. So that would be 2 or 3 or 4 notes simultaneously on a piano except they use their voices. I don't know the group but more they probably are singing. The old 50's doo-wop street music used 1 singer and often 3 others humming or just singing individual notes in harmony without words. But you don't need words to be singing. If you remember the old Do-re-mi-fa-so-la-ti-do scales one guy can sing a "do" and another a "Re" or "Mi" and that's a harmony. Each guy is in a different key.

Original Question

How can I strengthen and expand my upper singing range?
Q. I have a singing instructor to help me, but I was looking for some tips/exercises to do on my own. I need to expand my range for an audition in a few months. I need to be able to hit the D above the staff, ideally. All your advice is much appreciated, thank you!!
I'm already a soprano, but I'm a mid-low soprano.

A. Do some lip trills first, go up and down by half tones, relax your throat and body, DO NOT PUSH YOUR AIR, let your breath and support work together naturally, then start going up, do a scale of 5 notes like: C D E F G F E D C, (DO RE MI FA SOL FA MI RE DO) up and down. and do up by half tones.

NEVER FORCE YOUR VOICE, think it easy and natural, feel your support working but do not push any muscle.

DO NOT SING LOUD either, this exercise is specifically to develop flexibility in your vocal chords. So you don't need to sing loud or scream, you need to do it Piano (Soft volume).

Do it every day for 5 to 8 minutes 2 or 3 times a day.

then when you sing, try to find the same sensation of the exercise while you are singing.

Drink a Lots of water take a vocal rest every day and do not talk loud, do not scream, walk 30 minutes or do any cardio or aerobic exsercise every day to create stamina in your mucles, that will help you to sing your high notes better too.

Hope this help.
