For this song, I needed to sing it in a much lower key (C). The only way to do this was to transpose it up to C and then play it and sing it an octave lower. Overall it was a well done piece of sheet music but the fact that I had to transpose everything an octave made it a little bit more difficult than it should have been to play it and sing it.
