"My Way"
The track is transcribed in the original key, E Major, and uses basic major and minor chords E G♯m C♯m A. The chord change is the basic sequence I iii vi IV, also known as the "emotional progression", It is a popular choice in pop music. Sam Smith's "I'm Not The Only One", Billie Eilish's "Happier That Ever", and Sia's "Snowman" all use it.
"My Way" is composed with a straight rhythm in common time. There is probably the double feel (the accompaniment seems twice faster than the vocal line).
The left-hand texture is thick. Play any pattern (chords, arpeggios, tremolo, ostinato).
The right hand imitates the vocal delivery by Katseye girls: a predominant vocal style is legato but the phrases are very short.
Pitch inflections (slurred notes) should be played quietly.
In members singing you can hear Cercar della nota (search for the note) — a vocal technique of slight appoggiatura from above or below before a needed note. Some call it screechy but it provides the song with emotions.
The aesthetic value of a track is based on formulaic songwriting with nostalgic elements in chord's progression and motives.
