How to play Love Minus Zero/No Limit

[@rhynorton6606]

Thanks for the lesson! One of my favorite Dylan tunes. I saw an interesting approach where you only capo the top five strings, leaving the bass string at the required E. Gives it even more of the bass that this song relies on.

[@tongkrut]

You are amazing! I have wanted to play this song for 40 years and now you and KZbin have made it possible. I have the B&W Dylan video(with Donovan) and with your help I have realised my dream. THANK YOU SO MUCH. P.S. any other Dylan lessons will be appreciated.

[@LightSnowOvernight]

Marvelous! Thanks so much. I would never have been able to figure out the alternate tuning or slightly-altered G/G7

[@CompoundInterest-SG]

@BennyElie Bob Dylan can be seen playing it on his Gibson Nick Lucas Special parlor guitar in the documentary Don't Look Back. I have read he used it for many of the songs on Bringing It All Back Home and Another Side of Bob Dylan. So I guess if you want to be really Dylan-like you should play it on a parlor guitar. I think a parlor guitar could be particularly good for this song as it helps keeping the low C (E) kinda subtle, where it easily comes to dominate on a regular dreadnought guitar.

[@ryan9600]

And also you can just capo the first five strings and leave the thick E string open. without retuning guitar : )

[@ttsnap]

but then the grips of G and G7 are quite unusual when the E string starts 5 frets higher than the rest of the strings

[@AndrewCalhounSongs]

@@ttsnap the grips are the same.

[@Ollieralphs]

im usually pretty critical of some of these videos but this was seriously good cheers mate

[@Revolutionarybum1]

Hey thank you, I've been playing for years primarily electric but these days I've been learning some things that just never were needed during my years in bands.

[@FunkyCrumpet]

You should always play the song through first just so people know that they are learning the version they like before watching the full video. Other than that though good tutorial.

[@tongkrut]

The song I like to play most is "Heaven" by Talking Heads, the acoustic version from "stop making sense" I have the chords from "Chordie" but I need the picking details.

[@rgallen22]

very nice man,gotta just love that tune, never thought of tuning the e to c. gracias.

Love Minus Zero / No limit 사랑 - 0 / ∞ Bringin' it all Back Home (1965) My love she speaks like silence Without ideals or violence 내 사랑, 그녀의 언어는 침묵이야 이상과 완력 없는 그런 언어지 She doesn't have to say she's faithful 스스로 자신의 헌신을 밝힐 필요 없고 Yet she's true like ice like fire 유빙과 화염같이 명확해 People carry roses And make promises by the hours 혹자는 장미를 나르고 시간에 맞추어 약속을 하지만 My love she laughs like the flowers 내 사랑은, 웃음이 꽃과 같아 Valentines can't buy her 발렌타인도 그를 가질 수 없다네 In the dime stores and bus stations 잡화점과 버스 정류장에서는 People talk of situations 사람들이 현상(現狀)에 대해 이야기하는데 Read books repeat quotations 책을 읽고, 금언을 되풀이하고 Draw conclusions on the wall 벽 위에 결말을 그려 보네 Some speak of the future 혹자는 미래에 대해 이야기하지만 My love she speaks softly 내 사랑, 그는 온화하게 말하네 She knows there's no success like failure 그는 실패와 같은 성공은 없는 것을 알고 And that failure's no success at all 실패는 성공이 아니라는 것을 안다네 The cloak and dagger dangles 망토와 단검이 이리저리 흔들리고 Madams light the candles In ceremonies of the horsemen 주인들은 양초를 밝히지 기수의 의식에서는 Even the pawn must hold a grudge 졸개는 원한을 가져야 하지만 Statues made of matchsticks Crumble into one another 성냥개비로 만든 동상은 서로를 향해 부서져 버려 My love winks she does not bother 내 사랑, 그는 방해하지 않아 She knows too much to argue or to judge 그녀는 따지거나 판단하기에 아는 것이 너무 많다네 The bridge at midnight trembles 자정의 다리는 율연(慄然)하고 The country doctor rambles 벽지의 의사는 열심히 지껄이지 Banker's nieces seek perfection 은행가의 사촌은 완벽을 추구하고 Expecting all the gifts that wisemen bring 현자가 가져오는 모든 선물을 바래 The wind howls like a hammer 망치처럼 울리는 바람과 The night blows rainy 세차게 몰아치는 밤 My love she's like some raven 내 사랑, 그는 까마귀야 At my window with a broken wing 날개가 부러진 채, 내 창문 앞에 앉아 있네

[@JohnMoseley]

I've been playing this for years without the drop tuning, and also just playing G. It's great even like that, but I'm looking forward to doing it like this.

[@BillBaroud64]

Thanks a lot my friend ! I've tried and it really gives something more to the sound, beside that you're a good teacher

[@rayoll]

cool!!! thanks of that...I am not trying to start anything but a couple of times you say go up to when in fact you are going down a course of string or note or....just a little thing to notice perhaps that might confuse someone...again thanks, I hadn't thought to figure out what the tuning was.

[@michaelsledjeski6358]

that's it! classic dylan love song, thanks

[@fherrp19]

Great lesson, always wanted to learn this song. Thanks.

[@mns8732]

Thanks greatly appreciate it

[@xpmark1]

Thanks, great lesson.

[@richelgin1963]

Really excellent. I think I have the strumming pattern. But could you count it out with the downs and ups for each measure and chord. Thanks

[@paramesvaridasa5167]

That was great thanks

[@greatestunknown]

Thanks. Dylan really had is own way that is not always easy to figure out.

[@stephenoreilly]

Beautiful - well explained - great job.

[@pierfrancescogiannini3046]

Fantastico

[@stevefreedman3130]

Conner, Very nice job. Is there any more you can share about the strumming pattern for this song? I'm pretty much a beginner and strumming patterns are the hardest part for me, not the chords. For this song the strumming is half the song. Thanks very much. Steve Freedman

[@smallriversfury23]

Very good lesson thanks

[@AccountantHans]

I am back so hide your chicks! This is the guy you make this vid for, Holland Amsterdam. Fucking hell bro 110K views, amazing cool yeeee. Love to watch it again, it is still a really good performance. Love you 🍻👍👍💪💪🍻

[@tedpeterson1156]

Looks like the same chords and tuning for "It's all over now" basically.

[@patriciofernandez2711]

Ted Peterson Yeah it's exactly the same only It's all over also has that E7 thrown in

[@maxwellfan55]

@@patriciofernandez2711 'If not for You' similar. They're all great tho, don't matter. Dylan is genius. Of course.

[@flatonia]

Not that I could play it but great instruction and playing. spot on.

[@mattmcminn7747]

This is great but I’m having some trouble following the chord progression. Any chance you feel like making another video that more slowly goes over that?

[@richardcollier3594]

The most important tutorial bit missing with the rapid chord change between C to G to F .. how to do ?

[@cesasbo]

Thanks man, helped a lot, would you please, show us how to play visions of johanna? I just can't get this song.. thanks for posting.

[@azeremen12]

KZbin wouldn't let me post the link to the vid, so I had to get creative with it...

[@melissamartin2763]

You're awesome! Thank you!

[@baishalisharmah]

great babe..thanks for the invaluable lesson..can you please teach me how to fingerpick in the song " diamonds and rust"? and in "suzanne" i shall be highly obliged

[@ljwright1]

Excellent!

[@HiddenDriveways]

Great job. Thanks for this. I would love to learn the real way to play Girl From North Country. I've played incorrectly for a decade or two...

[@seenonyt2210]

Very helpful, thank you!

[@blainemoolman1934]

Thanks so much! Great tutorial

[@newportjdfan]

cheers fella, your a bleedin diamond!!

[@migo1954]

Thank you. Greetings from Germany. Michael

[@markdunne9419]

Great!

[@ZZJoCa]

Where were you two days ago when I was figuring it out? Good lesson, though I think you skip the F on the second Dm go around. .

[@mackb909]

Thanks- v. helpful!

[@BennyElie]

Thank you! quick question: what kind of an acoustic guitar do you think would be the best for playing these bob dylan kind of songs?

[@ericmuijs1938]

I have difficulties with the strumming pattern at the CGF section. Do I need to shift cords in the up stroke?

[@seenonyt2210]

I have the same question. I think you are right. Looks like shift to G during the upstroke of beat 2, and shift to F during the upstroke of beat 3. I could be wrong though.

[@ericaanne19bebe]

This was great!! I love Bob Dylan, and I want to learn to play guitar, I don't know if I have it in me, it looks so hard

[@chronicsnail6675]

3 years you should be a pro by now

[@ericaanne19bebe]

chronicsnail lol, I’m not.

[@chronicsnail6675]

Can u play?

[@jordangrieve3636]

Ohh its good fun

[@lewars1912]

Well done.

[@greenbluegrass]

Good video. Thank you.

[@manitobaism]

Great help indeed !

[@rich2419]

Sounds pretty much like how Bob played it when I saw him back in the day “1971”.

[@azeremen12]

Awesome vid, bro. I was watching him play the song to Donovan and had some questions... What is he doing to get that melodic high not in 1:50? Also, as it is not clear from the video, what notes is he play for the riff (1:10-1:20). I would appreciate any help. (ht tp :// lockerz.com/u/20422188/decalz/5626492/love_minus_zero_no_limit)

[@harris2898]

hey, not sure if you are still interested, but i believe he just added the third fret of the first string (with the pinky) on the C cord.

[@cristogomez7040]

great man, thanks

[@BennyElie]

Thank you very much!

[@richelgin1963]

Yes, I will try it out. Thanks:-0

[@lewars1912]

The ones with six strings are the best.

[@uttfan]

ur awesome.keep it up:)

[@c-alvarez315]

Can someone help with the strumming pattern? Can't quiet get it lol

[@christophereadgbe2976]

It sounds like DUUDUD-DUUDUD-DUUDUD It isn't absolutely critical that you get it exactly right, there are different versions out there. Listen and practice a lot and you'll figure out a way to play it that sounds good.

[@pilk66]

Christopher EADGBe This might help: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eZuwZpmvjdSJbtk

[@ttsnap]

if you play with 0.5 speed (or maybe even 0.25) you can count at 2:34 --> D DUDUDU

[@diarmok1549]

Bruu this video is almost as old as me

[@jd51452]

Just play the damn song.

[@goodnitesteve]

ew you like unbreakable?

[@Eoinkinooone]

cap-o. Everytime you say 'capo' I vomit a little. cap-o.
