    Awesome idea! Here's the timeline of the covers!
    00:19 - Down (Reading/Leeds 2014)

    01:59 - The Rock Show (Pepsi Smash 2004)
    02:59 - Stay Together for the Kids (Camden 2004)
    05:07 - I Miss You (Las Vegas 2011)

      It’s funny because it really is like child’s playing with how simple it is, but he has style and knows how to work it. He keeps it simple and makes simple sound and look amazing. That’s why I love him and his music. He simultaneously makes me believe I can do it too while making me ask myself how does he come up with this amazing stuff. I haven’t heard a Tom song that I needed to skip. Never ever. Mark too, really, which is why they belong together.

    Could you record a fully instrumental version of their version of a letter to Elise and then Download the mp3 of their live version and somehow get their vocals from it while cutting out the instrumentations (as much as you can) and match it with your studio version. Then we could technically have a somewhat close to studio version of their version of a letter to Elise 🙏🏻

    • @JoshuaBananas

    Say what you want about Tom live vocally but he is a very under rated guitarist. He comes up with great riffs and little guitar pieces. That’s what I loved live with him in blink, he added cool solos and little extra guitar pieces during songs and would improvise and it was cool.

    • @SiWatten
      @SiWatten 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Not quite. On this mark starts with B on the second string and the octave (B on the G string - so second string second fret, 4th string 4th fret). And goes down the scale so 2/4, 4/6, 6/8 and then back to 2/4.
      However after the first time he also adds in the A# on the G. So it’s more 2/43 but he’ll alternate.
      So (2nd on 2nd, and 3 and 4 on 4th string) it’s more 2-2-4-2-3-2-4-2-3-2-4 then (4th fret on 2nd, 6/4* on 4th) 4-6-4-4*-4-6-4-4*-4-6, and so on. Hope that makes sense, trying to write tab on TH-cam is a bit difficult.
