The Fact Remains by Juliana Hatfield - How to play cool songs

[mmurray31]

That's cool, Rob! Thankyou. It's not a song I want to play, although I love that album and her music. You do a very fine job teaching how to play the tune!

Just Wanted to say thanks for putting these videos up, they're amazing and very helping especially since I'm just learning how to play (: I'd love it if you did the song Breakeven by the Script, my little 4 year old sister wants me to learn it for her x]

Rob: "The Fact Remains" starts is in E, not F. You can see her playing it in the Vimeo performance that was put out last Fall.

@Hep3340 Thanks! I haven't seen that video, but I'm guessing either her guitar was tuned a half-step high or she used a capo on the first fret and played an F major using an E major formation. Using standard tuning and no capo like I do, the first chord is an F major.

i understand her new album is out today (in the style of Pink Moon)

do you know how to play "Shining on"?

[goodrob13]

The first chord is definitely major, not minor. Thanks for watching!

I just put up a song from 'God's foot' it would be great to break down as well. check it out

Awesome tutorial, buddy! You have awesome taste in music; Juliana is so great. The only suggestion I have is that it's much easier to play this song on an acoustic guitar if you slap a capo on the first fret and play regular chord formations. Give it a shot :) Bar chords just tend to bog me down when I'm not playing them on electric.

My favorite song off of HTWA. Great job. I was at The Bowery Ballroom show too, the crowds energy was off the chain!
