    Do you memorize notes?

    I can't stand to play the same song more than once usually and so I end up just playing 50 different songs whenever I play. For some reason my brain doesn't remember songs well at all, and I often start up a song and play the whole thing thinking its my first time through only to find I had an old score on it.

    Do you guys keep playing certain songs until you have parts of them memorized?

    Only if I have messed up on that part so many times that I am used to it / expect it. I don't really do it on purpose, like "Oh I need to memorize this," it just sort of happens.

    Rondo Alla Turca I played 50 billion times and by my last time, I knew the location of every jack in that level. But, I didn't try to memorize them.

      I don't really try to memorize any steps; it mostly comes out to memorizing the patterns, and BPM, of a song for me.

        Only steps I remembered were the crossovers in FotBB because the end has the ones I mess up everytime if I don't think for that second

          Yeah I suppose its rather ridiculous to think of trying to memorize thousands of notes.

          Its also rather ridiculous that I just stayed up till 9:30 in the morning playing ffr and I have class in like an hour.

              there are small sections of certain songs that i don't have "memorized"... but i know 4-5 notes in different areas that i find tricky, because i've played them so many times.

              like the jacks in 100 bar blackout, i know where they all are. only way to AAA that song, really. that's probably the best example, but clearly there are more. when you play 30,000ish+ games of FFR, you can't help but know certain parts of some songs.

                  I can't think of anyone who actually memorized a song else than Excite Bike and Free space...

                  I'd love to see a replay of someone playing with "hidden" on a song. Heh.

                    It's not so much memorizing the chart. It's more of taking notice of the few sections that give you trouble, looking at them in a relaxed (Ie, not playing) environment, and breaking it down into things that you can do.
                    They say there's a sun in the sky...

                      If a certain part of a song gived me a hard time comboing, then there is more memorization there.

                              The most memorization I do is knowing when a hard part is coming up. I say to myself, Oh **** the hard part is coming up.
                              The weight of what I say depends on how you feel.
