Cheers, iashfkashfaskl? I think my voice probably suits more powerful songs more as I usually sing punk, here's Violet Hill.

Yeah, an expression of it being really great.

Very nice Violet Hill, but I still think you can do better than that.

Mark · 02-10-2011, 11:15 PM

I think you put a great spin on it

Alien Radio · 03-10-2011, 01:35 PM

They're good

Just a suggestion, look more into the camera.

The Champion · 03-10-2011, 02:38 PM

Maybe he had lyrics in front of him. Or something

Looking right into the camera might be a little...embarassing

fooby · 03-10-2011, 05:56 PM

Its mainly because the camera is away above eye level, any requests? Think im gonna do life in technicolour ii with the hamer dulcima part as well.

nice man, but I think Prospekt's March played with a Capo on the 7th fret and tuning down the first string to D.
check it out see how it sounds.

keep on rockin'

Cheers, I was wondering aout that since seeing the soundcheck vid. It sonds damn close lke this Am F C and Em always plaing the high E as a drone note, altough I play it ith a capo on the first fret not the second as the album is too high for me. No capo is easiest, but too low for my falsetto.

anytime mate, and yeah it's fun to transpose but the actual recording is different.
if you wanna to be more exact listen to the recording for more details and the strumming pattern and follow these chords:

Again Capo on the 7th fret + Tune down the first string to D.
then...

Verse:
Em7 - C(add9) x4
"Smoke is rising..."
G/F# - C(add9)/G - Em7 - G/F# - C(add9) x2
"People talking..."
A7 - C(add9)
"Prospekt, how C(add9)ould I forget?"

Pre-Chrous:
G - Em7 - C(add9)
"Drums..."
A7
"You've got the gun?"
Cm(6:9)/A - G - Em7
"Oh and I run..."
C(add9)/G
"two little figures..."
Am11 - C(add9)
"I wasn't one."

Chrous:
D5 - D/F# - Bm7 - C(add9)
"...lie..on my own in a seperate sky..."

ends with G.

chords tabs:
Em7 (=Em) - 0,2,2,0,0,0
C(add9) (=C) - x,3,2,0,1,0
G/F# - 2,x,0,0,0,0
C(add9)/G (=C/G) - 3,3,2,0,1,0
A11 - x,0,2,0,2,0
G - 3,x,0,0,0,0
Cm(6/9)A - x,0,1,0,1,0
Am11 (=Am7) - x,0,2,0,1,0
D5 - x,x,0,2,3,0
D/F# - x,x,4,2,3,0
Bm7 - x,2,4,2,3,0

another tip: listen to the song sometimes Chris hammer-pulls, sometimes with the note G on 1st fret on C chord and on the chorus he does it with every chord with the note A on the 3rd fret.
Good luck !

I'll do us against the world next, got that learned already. I have LIT2 recorded with guitar and dulcima, but I cant hit the high notes in the chorus so it might have to be uploaded without vocals.

Oh no. The albums do fine but now all the rock awards are going to ed Sherran (who i do not like!) :/
