BPK - How to Play the Pagan Poetry Introductory Riff (Bjork) Short Tutorial

A short video on the opening riff to Pagan Poetry, by overwhelming request. The notes are

(C# in the bass on each down beat, and everything goes up except the D# and C# at the end of the second phrase)

G#-G#-A-C#-F#-G#-C#-C#-C#-C#-C#-C#-C#-C#-C#-C#

G#-G#-A-C#-D#-E-G#-C#-D#-C#-D#-C#-D#-C#

I cannot teach the whole song because there's too much volume of information in it. However, that's the most recognizable part of the song and one of the nicest riffs by Bjork so it should help get you started. Hope that helps.

Ah, you're making me smile, virtually and actually ;D

Welcome to England.

[longlonggone]

Well I am an honest to goodness Northern Lad so I've had my devil's access since I stayed at the Choirgirl Hotel.

[wbarreguy]

Oh no... Northern Lads not welcome in this England. ;-)

seriously my favorite bjork song~

[wbarreguy]

So many virtual <3's to you, you don't even know.

Your self effacement does you credit. I couldn't imagine you without the flowers. It just wouldn't be the same...So you'll have to leave the adulation to me, which I am more than happy to provide ;)

[wbarreguy]

I may or may not agree, as it's imperative I refrain from any public displays of self adulation. It would kill the flowers next to my keyboard. :-) You, however, are a gem and I can concur with you on that openly.

[longlonggone]

I hear you. I mean, it's cool that walkin' talkin' awesomeness such as ourselves exist; but at least make enough to go around ;)

[wbarreguy]

I do too. I wish there were more of us.

[longlonggone]

Thanks man. I like our demographic.
