Some of my students asked me to transpose and write out "Golden" from KPop Demon Hunters for them. I wasn't exactly sure what the song was, but I figured it out and figured I would share it here too.

Deep listening turns music from background noise into a full-body experience. It connects you to the performer, the writer, the moment, and even the community around you. It transforms passive enjoyment into active appreciation. 💡 Try This Today: Choose one song—any genre, any era. Listen once as a musician. Listen again as a teacher. Listen again as someone who simply loves music. If you simply just love music and aren't a musician or teacher, actively listen to the song and try and pick out each part. Try to separate the words, then move to the music and listen for the chord changes, the beat, and focus on what that song is trying to make you feel. What’s one song that completely changes for you when you really listen to it—and what made you hear it differently?
