Pyramid song -verse tutorial

[AlexaMullins]

thumbs up for the cat at the begining

[ExoticLadyBug]

i fucking LOVE you for having so many radiohead tutorials, FUCKING LOVE YOU!!!!

I think it's 16/4 (that's how i play it). And you should play that 4 times to get the repeating sequence.

I count with every chord, i play it like this:

1,2,3 1,2,3 1,2,3,4 1,2,3 1,2,3 (4x)

Play a chord on every 1. So 5 chords per measure.

It's quite hard cause the melody doesn't stop at the end of a measure.

Hope this will help anyone.

@ovaal i am pretty sure it is not over four because they are subdividing each beat into three eight notes so it should be over eight ( i know i am splitting hairs here). i may be mistaken but i am pretty sure it varies quite a bit more than just a one bar phrase

[ThePinkfloyd51]

thank you so much!

[MrGreatunwashed]

songs beaut, really soothing

[OKexperience]

I think the timing is quite easy, but, halfway through it changes. That's the hard part.

[koreybishop]

The timing never changes in the entire song. The drums just come in.

[kdawg828]

count it with a measure of 3 and then a measure of 5. The chords are on the following beats in order.... 1, & of 2, 1, 3, & of 4. Just repeat that rhythm sequence

[cosmichippoted]

the chords are easy .

its the timing thats imposible

anyone know how to count it ?

[sheandthem]

I'm figuring it out, it's hard, not gonna lie. I'll see if I can post a video or something on the timing if and when I get it.

[cosmichippoted]

i think i got it .

its 3-2-3 3-2-3 . with a swing

is that what you do?

[muymalmoon]

Apparently its in 16/4 time. I have no idea how to count that out. Its what makes the song brilliant.

[javidusty]

hey thank you so much i hope you do this more frecuently

[jurbanski0]

you are incredible! thank you so much for posting. you share art with the world and that is amazing. keep it up!

[billyradiohead]

thank you very much

[skyheath]

Thanks a lot, keep this up.

Although, your accent does make it very difficult for me to distinguish between "E" and "A"

It's like, ee and eeh

[MrsRoppa]

Thanks for the comment, i have a geordie accent so i use my imp indicator also so you can see what notes im using

[skyheath]

No problem. The version you put up with subtitles is the best. Not so much because of your accent, but just the video quality and camera position is much improved and I can pause it with the notes on my screen while I play.

Do Everything In Its Right Place sometime!

[VerilyMusic]

yes I had written down all the notes you said on a sheet of paper and when looking back over it was left utterly speechless as an E# glared up at me hideously from the page.

[pedrothesickmf]

A, not "eh"

[PJGR21]

radiohead is amazing.

thanks.
