Request for Jay’s “Secret” movie
The most popular item on this website so far has been Jay Chou’s single off his self-directed movie, Secret. Most youTube views, most downloads, and also, the most number of related requests.
To be honest I had heard the song a few times and thought it’d be fun to play, but I had no idea how big a deal this movie seemed to be. Is it really that popular? Am I really that ignorant? I figured it was time to see what the fuss was all about.
Today, after finishing up some editing on my next video (jay chou mashup! Feng vs Ge Qian!) I got myself a copy of the movie and the soundtrack. It’s a pretty decent movie, although I regret not seeing it with a girl. Not bad for a directorial debut.
Now I finally know what all these requests have been about! Finally, I can answer some of your questions about them:
1) I can’t do the Piano Battle because it is Impossible.
Have you seen that thing?! It’s freakin impossible! Even watching Jay do that one-handed left hand thing scared me. I get hand cramps just from playing Guitar Hero; attempting something like this would hospitalize me. Also, for the site, I’d rather stick to easy/medium material that most people can play, and play well, instead of posting something I can barely hit the notes to, let alone perform. Sorry guys.
2) Time Travel sequence
I’ve gotten a handful of requests for this one, and it looks like something I can do. The soundtrack comes with two versions: One version sounds fairly mechanical, like it was sight read, and the other sounds like it was performed by Jay. I’ll probably do something in the middle, but leaning towards the easier side. I can see the video for this being pretty fun….look out for it in the future.
3) I am two hands short of the Piano Duet
There’s been one or two requests for the Piano Duet, which i think refers to the scene where Jay and the girl are both playing the same piano at the same time. Awww. Anyways, there’s only one of me, so pulling this off would be a bit challenging. Maybe when I meet SheetMusicGal. One day. *sigh*.
4) There’s other good stuff on here y’know
Listening to the soundtrack (and the movie), there are two instrumentals that really stick out, which I think would be really fun to try. One of them starts when Jay is playing with the girl as a ‘ghost’, and then segueways into a nice instrumental sequence. I don’t remember where the other one’s from…but it’s nice too, ok. Anyways, keep an eye out for these ones too.
Thanks everybody, for all the support!

Hi, came across ur website today, have downloaded some of ur sheet music. Just wanted to say thanks so much for sharing. I can’t figure out the notes on my own, so have to rely heavily on talented people like you who generously share their transcriptions! I’m a big Jay Chou fan, have a lot of his songs from www.gangqinpu.com. I like the time travel sequence from the ‘Secret’ movie, found the music sheet on the internet, currently learning it.

I stumbled upon your site when browsing youtube and I’d like to thank you so much for sharing your pieces on your site. My all time favourite asian singers are F.I.R and Jay Chou, so I’m glad you have their song’s sheet music.
~My Request~
There is a piece called Ye Qu by Jay Chou from his albumn November’s Chopin. It’s slightly old because it was almost 2 years ago but it’s still quite popular (or so i believe) The version I got off the internet is very hard to play. Can you please make an easier version?
Heres some links:

Hi there, thanks so so much for doing the Secret songs. Really incredible!!
On this note, do you think you can do a simple song from the movie “Love Actually” which was out a few years ago? The song is “Glasgow Love Theme” by Craig Armstrong. I could send you the mp3 file if you email me. Thanks very much! 
Its not impossible … My lil bro can play all the songs of the movie Secret of Jay Chou, even the ones with only 1hand parts. He’s 5 yrs younger than me and plays 5 yrs less long piano than me :D.
I can’t play it, but he can :p
