Saw them on the Promised Land tour, when they had Geoff Tate on vocals. One of the best lead vocalists I've ever seen, his voice was as near perfect as you can get
Forgot all about them, so many other songs and artists I can hear in there. I thought maybe Suzi Quatro had copied them, but no my years are wrong, apparently it was the other way around.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adriano_Celentano "Prisencolinensinainciusol" (1972), which was written to mimic the way English sounds to non-English speakers despite being almost entirely nonsense. When you’re sober, you enjoy the music. When you’re high, you understand the lyrics
This guy did some absolute bangers back in the 80s / 90s ... here's one of my faves - a lesser known one...
Something I use to do, well still do actually, if a song appears difficult, try and take out some bits of it you do like and practice that, so like breaking it down into segments - bit like just taking the riff out. Then if I manage that, I might then look at another segment, and at a future date with practice stitch all together. Having a very brief look, it appears some of it is finger picking, so an element you could learn for something else. A fun thing I use to do, don't really do it now, I should try it again, is take segments from songs I like, let's say all the riffs, then mash them all together, but in an order of where one riff ends another begins, very good for learning your way around the neck.
@luvgonzo @Spurlock @PISKIE Next time ya chilling with a ziggy or a gay rum let this play, like Anderson paak but better wordplay and humour, brilliant stuff. Very young in cheek but nails the genre perfectly
In particular, for those of us with the blood of the Gael in our veins... but also for anyone who enjoys a banging guitar solo ...
