@Chefysambal it's in the same key, but the chord changes are all different. there really are no other similarities, so i'm not really sure what you're talking about
Slowdive music was OK, frankly it was the noise of a bunch of kids getting there groove on. I much prefer this stuff. I cant listen to Slowdive anymore, it sounds sooo bloody dated.
@lavishmcronald no dissrespect for the band at all. I guess I just got old, Mojave 3 is more my preference now. I can still listen to Catherine Wheel and Swervedriver however, I find they aged alot better.
diferent music=good music nowadays is rally hard to find music like this look for mason jennings,donavon frankeirreiter,jack jonshon if like this(i think u know them
this guy looks like a bum who was walking down the alleyway with his house (shopping cart) and stopped at a dumpster to check out whats on the menu. But than he discovered an acoustic guitar. it was a gibson. he picked it up, and with no past experience, strummed a C chord suspended to the 7th scale. kind of like a august rush dude.
seriously man this is just.... gah, can't describe it... I'm like.. drifting away to another world when I hear your voice and your feeling in this song.. I've got a new favourite artist ! :) cheers
@havregrynsgroeeet went to a jackjohnson con in ontario burls creek, jack was great but i feel in love with this guys tunes im pretty disapointed in myself that i didn't go shake his hand after he came off stage and talked talking to some of the crowd
Yo. Me and my mates have just started a band and done a cover of better together. Its on my uploaded videos. When you listen, remember that we have only had 3 hours rehearsal ever before we recorded it.
Saw Neil Halstead last night in Baltimore...was surprised at what a skilled guitarist he is live. Fantastic intimate show, and sweet approachable guy. See him if you possibly can!
my friend just sent me the link to this.....very pleased and ......grateful. let loose of your known structure, inhabit the sound.....forget all past thoughts, live the essence, live the harmony
I love Mojave 3 and I love Neil Halstead also ! Thank you for all you give me in all these years of special, unique music ! A fan from Italy ( Excuse me for my bad english .
come on guys you are being ignorant, its my opinion and thats what makes us different and you dont have the right to blame me just for my opinion, i dont blame you if you dont like jack johnson or matt costa, its taste, we arent meant to love the same things
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
true ... you're totally entitled to your opinion and that is what makes us all individuals... but i made myself laugh writing the last comment... Also your opinion is totally wrong in this instance!!
you are still being ignorant with your last sentence, you cant say its wrong, you can claim the opposite but you cant just say its wrong, basically this discussion isnt bringing us anywhere since both sides cant change the opinion of the other side, i just want to say that you guys shouldnt blame someone for his/her opinion, i dont say he is bad, but i dont like his musical genre as jj or mc ^^ peace out
is this the same neil halstead from slowdive?

i mean, have you guys ever heard slowdive?
his first band?
i respect your guys musical taste... but i really think he's gone down down down in his career if you compare the songs they crafted with slowdive.
oh man, oh man, oh man.
