u should make a tutorial :D cool ^^ thumb upppp

Good cover,rock on.But comparing to the original arrangement by Martin Tallstrom,this sounds a bit dull.And that's because you're not relaxed when playing.Your pinky on the right hand is stranded on the body of the guitar and this is not good.You'll always be in a convulsion,you limit yourself.Change your right hand position so the pinky could be free just like the other fingers and everything will be much easier and your playing will be a lot more relaxed and listenable

cheers!

To anyone attempting this, here's a quick tip. Instead of hitting the tenth fret on the 4th and 6th strings, just hit the fifth fret on the 3rd and 5th. It makes the verse a bit easier to play. You'll know what I mean when you open up the tab. Great cover btw.

@achillesboett btw by down i mean lower.

[ziad1234]

@achillesboett you tune down generally, but go to whatever is closest, so for example D is very close to E, so its easier to tune E down to D, rather than tuning E an octave up to get to the next D.

Also watch out for tense strings, if you feel like its gonna snap, you're most of the time doing it wrong.

From looking at the tab, I would tune all of the strings except A down.

[achillesboett]

I'm confused. Do I tune my guitar up/down to G, then put the capo on the third fret? Because the tab says the sixth string should be tuned to D. I'm so confused! o.O
