Lyrics are always included in my sheet music, singing is good for health. I also doubled note values to make sightreading easier for beginners. The track isn't recorded in the 2/2 time.
Imitate the vocal delivery by IU or it won't sound as the song. The vocal part is with pitch inflections (slurred notes). All inflected notes should be played very quietly.
The beginnings of phrases are of an indefinite pitch. I notated it as I pleased.
A predominant vocal style is staccato.
"Shopper" is played with a straight rhythm in common time. It is easy to count for beginners; accent strong beats to maintain a steady pulse. Practice slowly along with the recording.
To keep listeners attention, the *chorus* of _"Shopper"_ was made to be the biggest part of the song. 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. "Shopper" 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.
"Shopper" is transcribed in the original key, F Major, transitions into E Flat Major in the bridge, shortly modulates into D Flat Major before the last chorus. Chords used: F Gm Dm B♭ B♭m C7 E♭ D♭.
Notice the ellipsis (the omitted F chord) in the first measures of the chorus phrases. It pushes the vocal forward without raising the volume.
Of course I consider filling your requests of sheet music except for not popular tracks.
