September 8, 201015 yr I tried to play the notes of The Debt Collector, To The End, Bad Head and Tender on the recorder and I gloriously failed :wacky:
September 8, 201015 yr Wow, I heard Blur songs are really hard to play actually. Especially some of Graham's guitar parts, I bet they are!! Guys, I've actually been thinking of buying a :uhoh: melodica :uhoh2: Do it, Lizzy! I bought one recently. Totally inspired by Damon. I play the piano and it is so handy and portable. I love it. They aren't too expensive either. I love playing along with Blur songs, esp tender, beetlebum, Battery in your leg and charmless man is a lot of fun. I just strum along on the guitar though - nothing too complicated.
September 8, 201015 yr Hey, last time I wrote something in here the forum got closed for a few days :dozey: and then I was busy being a tourist in Norway :nice:. Anyway, thanks to those who welcomed me here back then ! So, is it gonna be a listening party for Blur? If so, when? *is excited*
September 8, 201015 yr I wanna hear that Nina! Can't be worse than me tho :PAre you sure? :lol: lol i'll practice a bit and then post a video. Do it, Lizzy! I bought one recently. Totally inspired by Damon. I play the piano and it is so handy and portable. I love it. They aren't too expensive either. I love playing along with Blur songs, esp tender, beetlebum, Battery in your leg and charmless man is a lot of fun. I just strum along on the guitar though - nothing too complicated.Melodica sounds like fun! :wacky: You guys need to post videos of your covers! Or at least mp3s pretty please. :wacky:
September 8, 201015 yr Are you sure? :lol: lol i'll practice a bit and then post a video. Melodica sounds like fun! :wacky: You guys need to post videos of your covers! Or at least mp3s pretty please. :wacky: Oh god! I don't think you wanna hear that! I can't sing so it'd just be me strumming the chords a bit! And I agree on the listening party. Looking forward to it.

I love playing along with Blur songs, esp tender, beetlebum, Battery in your leg and charmless man is a lot of fun. I just strum along on the guitar though - nothing too complicated. I'm thinking I will :wacky: I should take it to mah Gorillaz shows and play along with him :lol: I'm sure he'd be flattered lulz. Listening party fuck yeah!! Let's do Parklife or 13 soon!
September 9, 201015 yr Yay ! I just don't want it to be Think Tank considering it's the only Blur album that I know entirely. So, when do we do this?? :dance:
September 9, 201015 yr Ok, so I was bored and I caved! I did a cover of 'Battery in your leg'. I hope you don't hate it! I really love this song. It means a lot to me. It's a pretty straightfoward cover. You may be sorry you asked!! [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pdCF6NJJaHo]YouTube- Battery in Your Leg cover.wmv[/ame]
September 9, 201015 yr ^What instruments did you use? I hear a guitar, what's the other one? :wacko: It's very good! Nicely done. I have a melodica, or at least that's what I think it is. And it's probably older than me. I love the chord progression of Blur songs. Even TGTBTQ's chord progression is quite good. In fact, all of Damon's works, even Gorillaz. Damon Albarn is a genius <3 I try to play a Blur song completely, but normally Graham's part confuses me, since I play by ear.

Anyway, thanks to those who welcomed me here back then ! So, is it gonna be a listening party for Blur? If so, when? *is excited* Oh god I can't believe you wrote this! You deserve a good whipping:whip: But I'm glad you like Blur now :mellow: I'm in! Are you sure? :lol: lol i'll practice a bit and then post a video. Melodica sounds like fun! :wacky: You guys need to post videos of your covers! Or at least mp3s pretty please. :wacky: Yeah I am, do it:whip: Would be fun to each post a cover vid! I'm thinking I will :wacky: I should take it to mah Gorillaz shows and play along with him :lol: I'm sure he'd be flattered lulz. Listening party fuck yeah!! Let's do Parklife or 13 soon! Haha you should totally do that xD I know Parklife by heart and I love it, and I haven't listened to 13 yet so both are okay!
September 9, 201015 yr ^What instruments did you use? I hear a guitar, what's the other one? :wacko: It's very good! Nicely done. Aw thanks! The other instrument is a melodica. It's the Hohner fire one to be exact ;) And I agree about the chord progressions. Especially with Gorillaz and GBQ. I just love how most of the songs have an oddness about them. Omg no it's good!! :wacky: Thank you for sharing it with us! Thanks Lizzy, and you're welcome!
September 9, 201015 yr YouTube- Battery in Your Leg cover.wmv[/url] Really cool cover ! Congrats ! Oh god I can't believe you wrote this! You deserve a good whipping:whip: But I'm glad you like Blur now :mellow: I'm in! Ummm, what did I say in that message to deserve a good whipping ?? lol :thinking:
September 9, 201015 yr And I agree about the chord progressions. Especially with Gorillaz and GBQ. I just love how most of the songs have an oddness about them. Yeahhh, Kingdom of Doom is pretty interesting. :wacko: It's odd in it's own beautiful way. Like say, when it's A, the relative chord should be C#, but instead they use C. Like in Beetlebum. :wacky:
September 9, 201015 yr Ummm, what did I say in that message to deserve a good whipping ?? lol :thinking: Naah nothing wrong with this message, it's just cause you said you didn't like them a few months ago haha How were your vacations? :kiss:
September 9, 201015 yr :stunned: Perrine you need to listen to 13 it's so good! Probably my 2nd. fav. after Parklife.

September 9, 201015 yr Naah nothing wrong with this message, it's just cause you said you didn't like them a few months ago haha How were your vacations? :kiss: I never said that ! You little liar! You are the one deserving a good whipping :whip: :P ! xD Ok, maybe I said something like I didn't find Damon's voice THAT amazing or something. :shame: lol My vacation was fucking great, thanks :cool:. What about you?
