Great Balls of Fire – Piano Tiles

Otis Blackwell & Jack Hammer · 1957 · Medium

Jerry Lee Lewis cut "Great Balls of Fire" at Sun Studio in Memphis on 8 October 1957, playing piano and singing. Otis Blackwell wrote it with Earl Burroughs, who was credited as Jack Hammer; the single reached number two on the pop chart, sold a million copies in ten days and became the sound of rock and roll piano - a hammered boogie left hand under a shouted lyric that hangs on the blue third. It joined the Grammy Hall of Fame in 1999.

How Piano Tiles works

Four lanes of tiles fall toward a glowing hit line. Tap a lane — or press D, F, J or K — just as its tile crosses the line, and that note sounds on the sampled grand piano. Every tile is a real note from the song, so a clean run plays the melody while the accompaniment runs underneath. Each song is graded 1–3 stars at 70 %, 85 % and 95 % accuracy; the Practice chip plays any tune at 70 % speed with note names on.
