@720BOMBER: Think of it this way... Wii Music is just like a Mario game. You can just follow the path or you can explore around for little secrets. Rather than saving the Princess for the reward, however, you get a music video. If you did a good job it's a great reward. So if that sounds interesting to you... a kind of musical take on Mario/Zelda, then you will love it. The alternative is Rock Band/Guitar Hero where you do not explore but instead practice to complete a level as shown. I love the game, but honestly I'm not surprised that a lot of people have trouble with it - it's very hard using your ears rather than your eyes! And the reward is not very traditional.
