Love Wins All (Korean and romanized lyrics)-IU

An easy piano transcription made by request.

With Korean and romanized text. Lyrics are always included in my sheet music, singing is good for health.

Remember that the notation system was not intended to represent the sound of modern k-pop music with its layered vocal, computer-generated sounds, and inflections of modern electronic instruments. My piano sheet music can only show you the score within the boundaries of the twelve-note scale and a metered rhythm; alas, the pitch and rhythm have little to do with the aesthetic value of the track. Listen to the song before practicing to fully imitate the beauty of the song: its *timbre, phrasing, inflections.* Play the song, not sheet music. Sing a phrase before playing it on your keyboard.

*ABOUT THE SONG*

Imitate the vocal delivery by IU or it won't sound as the song. The vocal part is soft and with a lot of pitch inflections (slurred notes). All inflected notes should be played very quietly. The vocal melody is not precisely timed. A predominant vocal style is *legato* with internal pauses.

Notice fermata (𝄐) in the bar 158. Play the pause for 3 bars.

The double sharp (𝄪), as the accidental in the bar 151, means that you raise the note two half-steps up, C𝄪 is white key D.

_"Love Wins All"_ is played with a straight rhythm in triple time 3/4. It is easy to count for beginners; accent strong beats to maintain a steady pulse. Practice _"Love Wins All"_ slowly along with the recording.

Composition: Intro — Verse I — Verse II — Climax — Modulated coda

The track has unsual structure. The intro is long and quiet. Then follows a standard pair of verse/chorus repeated twice. After the climatic part, the chorus is repeated with new lyrics and in a new key.

To keep listeners attention, the *chorus* was made to be the biggest part of the song. I colored it *blue* for your convenience: it is easier to learn a piece of music when you have a mental scheme of it. Play every part differently, as expressively as possible. If some notes are too difficult to play, omit them focusing on emotions instead of sightreading.

A single vocal line accompanied by an instrumental part constitutes the entire musical texture. _"Love Wins All"_ has a semi-improvised, loosely organized and wandering melody and homophonic arrengement: the instrumental part provides a harmony to support the vocal but lacks its own melody.

_"Love Wins All"_ is transcribed in the original *key,* C Major, and uses basic/extended major and minor chords *C Am F G.* The last chorus transposed half step higher, into C Sharp Major. The chords there are C♯ A♯ F♯ G♯.

Notice the ellipsis (omitted chords) in the bars 109—110.

Of course I consider filling your *requests* of sheet music except for not popular tracks.
