All the Right Moves - One Republic


Secrets - One Republic


The band behind the 2007 smash hit "Apologize" has done it again with these two singles. Fans of "Apologize" will find a lot to love here: emotional, dramatic vocals for a cathartic sing along, heavy hip hop inspired drums that provide a great back beat, as well as intriguing instrumental arrangements. Between the strings on "Secrets" (featured on the soundtrack of the German film Zweiohrküken as well as One Republic's Waking Up) and the organ on "All the Right Moves" there are tons of great riffs to play along with.


Break Your Heart - Taio Cruz


Hitting #1 all over Europe, as well as the UK and the US, this song is perfect for getting a party moving. With a shout-along chorus, a driving dance beat and pitch perfect instrumentals, it's no wonder it's become a radio staple all over the world. With "Break Your Heart" on your keyboard, you've got a great song to learn and play around with, or add to your performance setlist - the synth sounds that run through the song will come out of your Yamaha keyboard with all the dancefloor filling power of the original.


Airplanes - B.o.B & Hayley Williams


Along with some help on vocals from Paramore's Hayley Williams, rapper B.o.B. has struck gold with this catchy hip hop tune. The mellow but powerful trip hop inspired beat features prominent guitar, but at the heart of the song is a fairly simple yet elegant piano chord progression. This piano line, layered with a delay effect, which is great fun to learn, play along with, or remix...


Down Under - Men At Work


With international hits like "Down Under" and "Who Can It Be Now", Men At Work created a distinctively Australian brand of 80's pop rock. Bringing the drums and guitars of the new age era together with flutes, saxophones, and a peculiar sense of outback angst, "Down Under" has become an Australian anthem for music fans all over the world.


Shame - Robbie Williams & Gary Barlow


A lovely country ballad from Robbie Williams and Gary Barlow, former partners in the British boy band, Take That. Though the song's context hinges on the relationship between Williams and Barlow, who notoriously feuded for years, the breezy melody and the sentiment of patching up an old friendship can both be universally appreciated.
