Richard Marx released "Right Here Waiting" in 1989, and it remains one of the most beloved power ballads in music history. For piano players, especially beginners, using "not angka" (numbered musical notation) is the fastest way to master this soulful melody without needing to read complex sheet music.
The song is originally in the key of C Major. In not angka, the numbers correspond to the notes of the scale: 1 = Do (C) 2 = Re (D) 3 = Mi (E) 4 = Fa (F) 5 = Sol (G) 6 = La (A) 7 = Si (B)

This is a slow ballad. Don't rush the notes. Let the "1" (Do) and "5" (Sol) resonate.
