I remember listening to this song alone with earphones plugged in at 3 am in 2016 september. I am going to pick up my girlfriend at the college entrance gate. Streets are empty at 3 am. She just came back from her home to the college campus. I had asked her to bring some home cooked food for me. I meet her & have a slow walk with her till the girls hostel. She hands me the homecooked food. I plug back the earphones & have a slow walk to my hostel listening to this masterpiece. What a slow time that was. Why life is so fast now? Just glad that we are still together.
Anyone reading this comment, I hope you find your peace in life.
This track has been composed when Warren Mendonsa was living in New Zealand where the weather during winter is notoriously gloomy. Warren hadn't seen the sun for many days, when one day it popped out from the clouds while he was playing guitar. The song just flowed out, pretty much most of the main theme.
I thought to add this information as it was there in the description when it was uploaded previously. Cheers to the good music.
Cheers man! Thanks for the info. Love this track
Thank you, so nice to hear the story behind the songs!
Glad that people care about good music and the stories behind it. Been a while since I attended a Warren set. Feeling nostalgic. Cheers mate
thank you brother 💗
The emotions in the composition and playing are ungaugable Warren. We can only feel it. This will always be one of the best musical compositions I have heard and will hear in this life. May Maa bless you with more such divine melodies and help us heal 🙏🏼❤
Men will literally listen to this track on loop instead of going to therapy
No flashy arpeggios. No unnecessary runs up and down the fretboard. No technique for the sake of technique. Simply melody, restraint, tension and release. Time and space altering music, put together by a master of his craft. I can see that ray of sunlight. I can see it.
Man this track is such a vibe. And perfect technique. And perfect composition. The feel. I'll never get bored of listening to this
Glad it's still getting some love 15 years later :)
@@blackstratbluesit's still playing ❤
Thanks!
8 years later, still coming back to this.
Still as fresh as it was when I first heard this track around ‘09. Timeless stuff!
Five years of listening to this melody. Thank you Warren for everything
When was the last time you just listened to a 10 mins guitar instrumental track? But Warren's playing makes it so enjoyable, you don't even realize that much time has passed. There are ups and downs, tension-resolution, acoustic-electric, silence-loudness, all that while keeping the tune so melodic. This is such a brilliant track!
Aren't you the guy from Anariksh?
@@AshisDash90 Yea bro! So few people know about Antariksh, so I wonder how come you know about it.
I am your long time follower on Facebook :)
Then, now and ever...
New year..New beginnings..Ode
I thought I was the only one starting the new year with this song. Cheers mate 😄
Warren this song is legendary. Every soul needs to hear this! I'm gonna send this song to all those I know man!! Why is it not popular already!!
If you genuinely enjoy the music, does it really matter how popular it is? :)
@@blackstratblues Love you man
The signature repeated arpeggio just makes me cry the second I hear it. Powerful powerful stuff.
Just came back from a trip to Kalga, Himachal Pradesh and I remember listening to this song with my friends during sunset. Thank you for creating music that genuinely allows me to cherish my memories.
Can't help but fall in love with this song.
I really like this band, this songs...

I have waited for this to be on TH-cam since I first heard it in your gig about a couple of years ago!
Thank you for putting it up here! 😁

So simple, so smooth, so good

Hey Warren - I don't know if you are open to this idea but could you share a backing track for this legendary track? Noodling over this is how I would love to spend my rainy days.
Try moises.ai for backing tracks.
@@blackstratblues that now doesn't support youtube link due to google restrictions
@@abhaykelkar Buy the WAV file off Bandcamp for $1 ;-) blackstratblues.bandcamp.com/track/ode-to-a-sunny-day
@@blackstratblues sure. Will probably have to buy moises full version too as it provides limited functionality in the free version.
Recently i saw your gig at antiSocial, Mumbai. You guys were fantastic 😃.
However i felt the volume was too loud considering the size of the venue. I was in the middle.
Do visit again soon and waiting for the new album.
@@abhaykelkar Bring earplugs next time :)
👍
what is the background chorus towards end of the song?
My multitracked voice running through a Leslie (rotary) speaker :)
Therapy
What is that overdrive pedal? Is that a tube screamer or big muff?
It's mainly amp distortion, a late 70s Marshall JMP 2204 boosted with the Maxon SD9. I also had a Roger Mayer Voodoo Vibe for modulation. For more info on how I use the SD9 check this out: th-cam.com/video/6hdSQyAqRLY/w-d-xo.html
Is this album on spotify?
Yup
@@blackstratblues Please add it to Apple music also !! It deserves so much more . Big fan
