Sister Sledge - Lost in music

Level: Hard

After an easy lead-in this disco classic gets pretty demanding but with plenty of word groupings and special outlines it's worth the practice. Thanks to Francesca Gillett for suggesting this one.

Abba - Dancing Queen

Level: Medium

The Swedish popsters are a great choice for Teeline practice with clear, easy to follow lyrics. You'll need to use plenty of shortcuts and word groupings to keep up though.

Welcome to Musical Teeline

I started this blog after finding transcribing song lyrics was a fun way of practising Teeline and because there were few resources for Teeline study online. Learning shorthand is rarely fun and there's no escaping the book work and monotonous dictations.

This blog is designed to be a supplementary resource for students who have covered Teeline theory and are consolidating this and building speed. Each post has a link to the song followed by lyrics and a sample transcription with useful and tricky outlines highlighted.

I hope you find this resource enjoyable and useful and I welcome your feedback at: info at patrickwiddess dot co dot uk.
