    This is a departure from my usual jazz transcriptions, but Back At One is one of my favorite songs and Brian McKnight is a lowkey piano genius :) enjoy!

    Sorry if this is a dumb question (I read chord notations but am self-taught so I could just be ignorant). At 0:25 it looks like the chord notation says G#77. I know it obviously isn’t a G# with the 77th note in the scale on top. Is that a typo or is a #77 actually a thing (like an inversion where you play the 7th on the bottom and top of the chord or something)?

    • @ronnieog7352
      @ronnieog7352 2 місяці тому +1

      I think notating a B# would be more appropriate instead of a C natural. It functions as a secondary dominant of the supertonic.

    Glad this video is getting the recognition it deserves. I first listened to this recording over 10 years ago and couldn’t believe the level of musicianship. In an ever changing world of pre-recorded beats, autotune, and zero music theory, Brian McKnight is a beacon of hope for us all. If popular music was actually about the quality of music instead of the fame of the artist, the world would be a much better place.

    Well, I was expecting him to swing it or something. He may be a genius as asserted in many comments but for me this is kind of soggy and awful. Why not pick up the tempo and get out of emo mode, show a sense of humor? The sentimentality here is cloying. The lyrics are as corny as a 1970s Hallmark card's, without evidence of wit or self-awareness or perspective. The vocal is warbling and whiny and begging to be parodied. It's like Benson Boone before Benson Boone. Or maybe Louis Capaldi is a more apt comparison. Is there a 20th century jazz great who would think this is good music? In a way, this is like the early 1920s sentimental music that Louis Armstrong reacted against, the musical equivalent of a warm Snickers bar on a summer day in Miami.
