All the hits from Season 1 of Steven Universe!

Steven Universe may have inherited his magical abilities from his mother, Rose Quartz, but there's no doubt that his love of music comes from his father, Greg Universe. Now, fans can learn to sing and play all of Steven's favorite songs—from the tunes he learns on his ukulele, to his father's guitar hits, as well as original songs sung by each of the Crystal Gems. This music book also gives kids the tools and inspiration they need to write their own songs!

Ok, this makes me feel better. This is wonderful.

February 9, 2016

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

Still reeling from my disappointing Kindle book download of "What In The Universe? (Steven Universe)" I was almost scared to go get this out of my mailbox, knowing it had just been delivered. I couldn't have been more pleased with what I found.

For a LONG time, there was no official "soundtrack" for the SU fans to enjoy, and this is so, so much better than that would have been. True to the educational/loving nature of the show, the creators have released a book teaching others to PLAY the music from the show, and inspire them to create their own. As a decade-ago-high-school-band-clarinet-abandoner, now mother, this is exactly the refresher I needed to be able to pick up Uke and help my son learn how to play it. The chords for ukelele, guitar, and piano are all included, as well as helpful, easy to read information about getting started as a musician on your own.

Songs included:
We Are The Crystal Gems
Let Me Drive My Van (Into Your Heart)
Giant Woman
Strong In The Real Way
Steven & the Stevens / Steven & the Crystal Gems (same riffs, different lyrics)
Dear Old Dad
Be Wherever You Are
On The Run
Lapis Lazuli / Wailing Stone (same riffs, different lyrics)
Stronger Than You
Love Like You

This couldn't have been better. I'm so happy.

Good book - but geared more towards piano and guitar than ukulele.

July 28, 2016

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

I've played guitar for several years but I wanted to pick up ukulele, so I grabbed this book of music from my favorite cartoon, Steven Universe.

The book is split between sheet music and cute activities for younger readers. It includes almost every song from season 1, even minor songs like "Big Fat Meanie Zucchini!" and the activities are all high quality and amusing, even if they're aimed at very young children.

The only real downside is that the chords are clearly designed around piano arrangements of the songs, so they sometimes include quite complex chords like Abmaj7/C or Abm(maj7).This isn't really a problem on guitar, but the ukulele doesn't really use slash chords or very complex chords due to the tuning and limited number of strings, so if you try to play equivalents to these complex chords the songs will sound pretty bad. You sometimes need to tweak the chords and find alternatives to fit the ukulele, which can require some experimentation and some experience that beginning players might not have.

If you want to learn the songs on piano the book is perfect. If you want to learn the songs on Guitar you'll only need to make minor and rare adjustments. If you want to play them on ukulele, many songs will require some tweaking on one or two chords to sound right.

This doesn't in any way make this a bad book - far from it. I'm glad I bought it. It's very high quality and I'm happy to be able to support the show. If they put out a season 2 book, I'd gladly buy it too. At the price, this is a steal for the number of songs it contains. I just wish the arrangements were geared more towards ukulele than piano so it would be more beginner-friendly.

just what i was looking for!

January 1, 2017

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

a got a ukulele for Christmas, so i was obviously eager to start learning some songs. this songbook stuck out right away seeing as i love the SU soundtrack in addition to the fact that its sheet music also applies to piano and guitar, the latter of which i've been playing for 6 years.
this is not simply a songbook, but it also includes little activities and spaces for you to write your own songs. these make the book seem that it's aimed at children, but i can assure you that an SU fan of any age will enjoy this. in fact, i may use the blank manuscript for some of the newer songs that aren't in the book ^^'
i read some other reviews saying that this book doesn't include strum patterns, which i can confirm, but if you're new to the instrument or playing while singing, i feel that what is covered in the book is sufficient. if you're going for a sound just like the show, though, you're going to have to do a little additional research.
overall, i would recommend this to any musician who likes Steven Universe and is looking for a nice little songbook (especially if you play all three instruments it's designed for)!

More than just a "fan" book!...

February 20, 2016

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

I bought this as a gift for my daughter who is a huge fan (to be honest everyone in the family is)... She was really excited to get this... It has all of our favorite songs from the show and how to play them... It even has the cords for the theme song which got her excited to try and learn the ukulele now... Only thing that my true "diehard" fan daughter noticed is that the complete theme song lyrics from the pilot is not included... It is also a workbook and helps you write your own songs... I don't see how you could be disappointed if you get this book.. Great purchase!....

Jams for gems

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

This is really cute and handy! Has sheet music and chords for most of my favorite SU songs. Also has a cheat sheet for ukulele and guitar chords in the front which I actually reference a lot. As a ukulele amateur I use this to warm up pretty often. Activities are cute as well! Whoever designed this put thought into it and its lovely.

Great learning tool for the kiddos.

September 24, 2016

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

I'm not afraid to admit that I'm a Steven Universe loving adult with a slight tendency to pretend I can play a ukelele. When I saw this book I jumped at the chance to get it. It's certainly geared towards children (I'm guessing in the pre-teen age range and under) with the art projects included within, but that's fine by me. I think it is also geared more toward pianists and guitar players, as I felt the chords used for the uke to be very difficult. Nonetheless, it is a wonderful reference and looks great on my shelf with all my SU gems. If my nieces ever show interest in music this is a sure buy for them.

AMAZING book for Ukulele and SU fans. It teaches you about music (pitch, notes, etc), lets your child create their own music and of course, has the SU music lyrics and notes. SCORE!

This is a great song book but if you are learning how to read music I'd suggest getting a different book for learning how to read music. This doesnt go in depth with learning to read music.
