CockleHocker Posted September 8, 2010 Share Posted September 8, 2010 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alice Posted September 8, 2010 Share Posted September 8, 2010 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:.

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!

Alice Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 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: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CockleHocker Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 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!!

eff-exx Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 ^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.

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!

eff-exx Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 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: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
