@@malik87breaker it’s hard too. Take David Gilmour for example. He isn’t one of the fastest players on the planet, but he has probably the greatest tone, and seems to always play the perfect note and the perfect time. The notes he chooses to play on top of his tone and delay will literally take you places during his guitar solos
@@_Tommmmmm_ Fast doesn't equal a great player. It just means you can play fast. But if all the notes you hit sound the same and have no emotion behind them... then you might as well plug in notes to a machine and let it play. That's the difference. Musicality.
He writes, as he calls it himself - "nursery rhymes on steroids". That changed significantly though as he got older and spent more time writing and producing music with Ilan Rubin.
I really love this guy. I love how he doesn't pigeonhole himself into a single genre. Also love the 'Edge" influence I'm hearing here. Those sixteenth notes really bring out that U2 sound that's been 'Delongized'.
@@oscar18034 yeah but still, Tom said after Mark wrote it they both understood how to write songs and how to structure a song into sounding nostalgic/ good
Genius! I love the 'still screaming' part! He set out to create something incredible and when I saw the original sounds it came me so much more insight into his creativity.
This song and the whole album blew my mind the first time I listened to it I just sat and listened to the whole album back to back and every song was a banger
Mr. Delonge, you are a genius. He hasn't even thought up words yet, and he's putting the whole song together right there. He is my inspiration as a musician.
i love tom delonge its awesome to watch serious writers recording when youre in the studio hanging out , id love to meet tom i was hoping for blink dates but there are no US dates
assuming he tuned it down at 3:20 without pressing down on the frets I'd say the beginning is standard tuning and after he tunes it it's Drop D (only the first string), but i could be wrong :D
