Great playing there. The solo-bits are tasteful and gives extra edge to an already fabulous song. There are no little mistakes in this playing.. even when moving around faster than lightning. I have no religion at all so for me Christmas is "a human holiday" and a very nice one in the mid-winter season when it's most needed. This is indeed my most loved Christmas song as well. I think It's french (Addams) is anyway borderless, timeless and actually gets better for every year:)
@rawstarmusic Thanks so much for your kind words rawstarmusic! I'm glad you liked the video, and I couldn't agree with you more how this song is timeless and gets better every year ; ) Merry Christmas and a happy new year to you and your loved ones! ; )
hey whats that ascending lick you played at 2:14? I dont listen to much metal type music but I've heard people do it and want to learn it! if you could tell me like who commonly plays it or tell me where to find it that would be GREAT! also did you use a different tuning to standard?
@artkingtjw Thanks for your question! I'm not sure who commonly plays the lick, neither do I have a tab for it, so my apologies there dude. But the good thing is that it's simply a B Major scale ; ) Since the song was in E major, playing the B major scale gave it a mixolydian vibe (I think! haha I'm very bad with modes). Instead of starting the B major scale all the way down on the E string, I started it on the G string and ascended the notes from there. Hope this helps? ; )
