At last, I have edited and uploaded all the videos I've been meaning to post from my "From Nebraska to Texas and Back" session with  Twee Vu on Youtube.  Here's our cover version of Natalie Imbruglia's Torn:



You know what, I'm just gonna go all out.  Here's the whole playlist of all the 5 songs we recorded on video that day (it includes the video above, and an original):

Trade me?  How?

Didn't I pick Funky town already, when are you gonna post it?

Re: Public Video Post: Me and my friend playing "Torn" (Natalie Imbruglia cover)
I'm gonna do some sorta difficult mixing for funkytown, but doing either Little Martha or Twilight Time on solo acoustic/instrumental later tonight... when I'm finished cooking and baking.

Re: Public Video Post: Me and my friend playing "Torn" (Natalie Imbruglia cover)
Oh fudge! Do Little Martha!  If you do, I'll do it too!

Re: Public Video Post: Me and my friend playing "Torn" (Natalie Imbruglia cover)
OK then, Little Martha it is.

Re: Public Video Post: Me and my friend playing "Torn" (Natalie Imbruglia cover)
What tuning do you do it on?
onewalrus on
Re: Public Video Post: Me and my friend playing "Torn" (Natalie Imbruglia cover)
open D

Capo on 2nd Fret?

Re: Public Video Post: Me and my friend playing "Torn" (Natalie Imbruglia cover)
Depends on which guitar I'm using. On my cutaway, yes. Otherwise not. That's because it's easier to reach up when playing the bridge with the capo on the cutaway.

Ah, I see.

Re: Public Video Post: Me and my friend playing "Torn" (Natalie Imbruglia cover)
Really, you could put the capo (or not) where ever you want. Mostly I don't use one for this piece... cause I'm lazy. I'll be curious to see your fingering/interpretation on this!
CallmeRoger on
Re: Public Video Post: Me and my friend playing "Torn" (Natalie Imbruglia cover)
I know that, I'm asking where YOU put yours.  I can put a capo inside next to my computer's RAM and still play Little Martha.  You post yours, I post mine... Youtube.

Re: Public Video Post: Me and my friend playing "Torn" (Natalie Imbruglia cover)
I think I'll do it in open G
CallmeRoger on
Re: Public Video Post: Me and my friend playing "Torn" (Natalie Imbruglia cover)
Open D, then capo on second fret, transposed to open E.

Re: Public Video Post: Me and my friend playing "Torn" (Natalie Imbruglia cover)
... or open E as it was written.

Re: Public Video Post: Me and my friend playing "Torn" (Natalie Imbruglia cover)
Someone tuned my guitar that way, and popped one of the strings.  I was pissed.
onewalrus on
Re: Public Video Post: Me and my friend playing "Torn" (Natalie Imbruglia cover)
Probably the G string huh?
CallmeRoger on
Re: Public Video Post: Me and my friend playing "Torn" (Natalie Imbruglia cover)
Exactly! The G String.

Then again, the way I play, that string always breaks.

I've broken way tooooooooooo many G Strings in my lifetime.

Ummm.. I was talking about guitar strings ya know. Right?

She's coming back on January 1 to 5.  We can play a concert for your sister.

When are me you and James going to sing together????
CallmeRoger on
Re: Public Video Post: Me and my friend playing "Torn" (Natalie Imbruglia cover)
I'm not sure.  If I bring my guitar to the ren fest, someone's gonna have to tape it.

You and I could be working on our stuff already.

Re: Public Video Post: Me and my friend playing "Torn" (Natalie Imbruglia cover)
Yeah, right! I'd be singing along with you in your car with a kidney in a cooler in the backseat. 
CallmeRoger on
Re: Public Video Post: Me and my friend playing "Torn" (Natalie Imbruglia cover)
Haha!! No, we can meet somewhere, I can bring my video camera and electric guitar and sing.

Can you sing Fiona Apple's Criminal?

Re: Public Video Post: Me and my friend playing "Torn" (Natalie Imbruglia cover)
I don't have the lyrics, I'll have to learn them.

Re: Public Video Post: Me and my friend playing "Torn" (Natalie Imbruglia cover)
Dream On by Aerosmith?  You know I'm old school?

Re: Public Video Post: Me and my friend playing "Torn" (Natalie Imbruglia cover)
This one shouldn't take me too long to learn.  That would be awesome if we can pull this off.

Re: Public Video Post: Me and my friend playing "Torn" (Natalie Imbruglia cover)
Yeah, if I don't end up sounding like I'm singing an aria.
CallmeRoger on
Re: Public Video Post: Me and my friend playing "Torn" (Natalie Imbruglia cover)
It's fine!  It's totally understood that it's a cover anyway.

Re: Public Video Post: Me and my friend playing "Torn" (Natalie Imbruglia cover)
I've always wanted to know: If you're going to play in Texas, do you have to have a fiddle in the band? 
CallmeRoger on
Re: Public Video Post: Me and my friend playing "Torn" (Natalie Imbruglia cover)
A fiddle?  Utah isn't in Texas. lol

Re: Public Video Post: Me and my friend playing "Torn" (Natalie Imbruglia cover)
This is what I'm talking about...lol.
CallmeRoger on
Re: Public Video Post: Me and my friend playing "Torn" (Natalie Imbruglia cover)
LOL!  I have never even heard this song.  I love it!!!!!!!!!!!!

I got to show this video to my girl.  She's from California and stuff like this is very weird to her.

Re: Public Video Post: Me and my friend playing "Torn" (Natalie Imbruglia cover)
hahaha really? I guess since my mom has listened to country music my whole life, it's weird to me that people don't know this song!! lol

Alabama is/was a pretty popular country band back in the day and this was on their greatest hits I believe lol.
CallmeRoger on
Re: Public Video Post: Me and my friend playing "Torn" (Natalie Imbruglia cover)
I've heard of them, but I just.... I never heard their music.
This song is epic though.  And he mentions Houston!!!!!!!!
dreastrikesback on
Re: Public Video Post: Me and my friend playing "Torn" (Natalie Imbruglia cover)
haha, are you from houston? 
CallmeRoger on
Re: Public Video Post: Me and my friend playing "Torn" (Natalie Imbruglia cover)
Yep, my profile says Missouri City, but Houston ain't but less than a mile.

Sublime mentioned Austin and Houston in one of their songs, and I was like WHOA!

Ooooh I love the cover of My Immortal... I have always wanted that on acoustic! Nice!!
CallmeRoger on
Re: Public Video Post: Me and my friend playing "Torn" (Natalie Imbruglia cover)
Awww, thanks Cas!  The singer, Twee, wasn't too happy about it.  I think she did great, although, we performed this song at this one "open mic" night, and it blew me away...
