Don't get me wrong, this song is amazing... but the chord progression makes it awesome and the chord progression is the same as Stray Cat Strut... not saying you intentionally stole it cause I know these things happen... still awesome song
@bunnies2000 I didn't say it was stolen, the chord progression is "insipred" from the standard spanish scales used in 1960's blues, for example Stray Cats
@BSGhusker actually I couldn't tell you what inspired this chord sequence. It's interesting that there's precedence for it's use, and even a theory-based origin. I've never had any training, and haven't listened to a lot of blues music.
@eddplant The less you know about guitar theory the more honest your songs are... so your songs kick ass cause you express yourself depending on the mood, not something a guy taught you to do... for example picture unrelated shows an awesome energy bomb side of you and this is acoustic/blues side of you... Nobody minds the lack of theory knowledge, for example in The Beatles, McCartney was the only one with music theory and yet Lennon was writing so much better melodies and lyrics.
@jokernu1fan actually this was The Controversial Life and Untimely Death of Michael Jackson, but I can understand how you would get the two bands confused.
@eddplant Oh my god you replied to my comment...And thanks lol But wow you, Tom, Alex and Charlie were like my inspiration to learn music. I'm not that good though...Yet
@cappanolee it's an Epiphone! I played with a '57 Gibson the other day and aside from the deep awe I didn't feel much difference, it's not worth it unless you have money to throw around.
How about some gigs in Europe? I understand that England and the English fans are great but you know, people from the Continent are a bit jealous. We want you here sooooo bad!
So you know that song? That one where you sing about not being able to find the words, and there are drawings by Tom on the music video? Yea that one. It's pretty great. (:
@someonecalledME003 this song is pretty simple to play live, as it was recorded in one take with guitar, bass and drums. There are a couple of overdubs to make the heavy parts heavier but what you hear is what is played live, basically!
i love this song with a very strong passion <33 someday im going to see you live and im going to be the guy that randomly faints while listening to you
I didn't think it was possible to love you more than I already did, but it has happened. I am completely in love with you and your music <3 Yours forever, less than three <3
First thing to say: I love this song. I've just started watching your videos and I love what I see and hear. Nice work Ed! :)
Second: there are so many parts of this video where Tom looks at his drumsticks as if to say "What the hell are these things in my hand...? What am I doing...?"
This matches exactly how I feel right now - thank you so much for creating a fantastic form of expression that I can belt out around the house when nobody is home. Thank you so much
How the heck does Tom manage to play all the instruments that he does without being able to see a thing? Or is his hair one-way - maybe it seems opaque to us, but to him it's transparent? Hmmm...
Also, I was absolutely mesmerised by the slides. They were brilliant. Props for whoever did them.
This is quite possibly the greatest song I have ever heard and I'm not even exaggerating lyrically beautiful musically stunning and somehow simply mesmerising in every way
this is freaking fantastic. the only part i was mad about was that in the end when you all stare into the camera, toms hair blocks his eyes and kills the epicness. but it was so good, the overall awesomeness kills the tiny miniscule annoyance i had.
i love the rawness of the song, if thats what you want to call it, and its "dark" sound using chords that fit the starting Cm, not alot of artists can nail it, so well done:) is it just me that noticed syncing problems with tom on the drums? and theres no floor tom, and the drums are on a platform of sort, so no bass drum, but theres a bass drum audible?
@eddplant :) i'm a musician, i guess its a thing i have with songs like this, the (i hate this word) "defeatist" feel, about the Cm chord is just so cool, and tom's drawings strangely make it darker, its something different to what ive seen before. i dont see a microphone, was there a mic? Cm and Dbm sound epic:) btw, who wrote the strings for sound of drums? i love the song and i figured out most of the parts to SoD a few weeks ago:)
This is mine and my boyfriends song..and i constantly have to remind myself of this while watching, just to stop myself from fantasizing about Alex, Edd + Tom XD
@eddplant I fucking love this song dude, when it started I must admit I thought "here we go some more hipsters being hip..." but then I really got into it, well done!
I've only recently discovered Eddplant after he joined Chameleon Circuit, but I've had his album and new EP on repeat for about three days now. Brilliant music. :)
the reason why i like music videos is because i can go around and do whatever during the music....i can't with this one. i have to stare at edd, alex, tom and the artwork.
I have introduced so many friends and family members to Eddplant's music through this. They have all loved it. One of my all time favourite songs paired with one of the few music videos that I feel actually works. You have so much talent it's criminal, Ed.
@dimplexxify That's the one thing I dislike about them all being friends- whenever one person is on another's channel, the comments are all about them as opposed to the person who owns the damn channel in the first place.
