Lucy Dacus - "Tom Courtenay" (Yo La Tengo cover)

[@douglast3410]

from recording this cover to playing with yo la tengo live in a few short years. what a ride and what an artist

[@ktothebbc]

One of the many, MANY things I love about YLT is how their songs are so timeless, they feel right at home in the hands of newer artists 25 years later. This is lovely.

[@versnellingspookie]

I read your essay on this album as you were playing. What a lovely experience

[@tymmac007]

Wow, Lucy nailed it!! We need more of her Yo La covers

[@tanbao1810]

Beautiful voice!

[@skoldpadda9]

I talked to her about Yo La Tengo after a short set she played here at a grocery store(!) in Michigan City Indiana just a few years ago. Great to see her career take off! Fantastic cover

[@robzabrecky8489]

Awesome rendition. No one does a heroine song like this. I want to sing it and record it with my voice.

[@nickn626]

I believe there's something of a connection of this song to the Beatles movie Help! though it's been so long since I've seen it that I couldn't swear to it. Eleanor Bron is in the movie, and I think there's a hypodermic needle involved.

[@RepairSouth]

Beautiful voice darling ladyxxoo

[@cptwiesel]

Sounds good! But what guitar tuning is this? Sounds like an open tuning or is it standard EADGBe?

[@marcvallely3977]

DADGBE I think - so just the low E tuned down a whole step

[@ohpopshop]

I'm pretty sure there's a little more going on. I get D-A-D-Fsharp-A-D

[@marcvallely3977]

@@ohpopshop You're right, that's spot on!

[@cptwiesel]

@@ohpopshop Thanks!

[@ericsteffen6042]

She is almost always in open D, as ohpopshop said, DADF#AD

[@marianomartinez8738]

bravo

Painful -- Electropura -- Two Hearts Not too shabyy.

[@bluhkchaplin9989]

I want the tabs :C

[@ericsteffen6042]

Open D tuning, starts on an A chord, then C#minor (I think), F#m, E

[@ericsteffen6042]

I think the only other chord is a D, played without fretting anything. It's added to the progression once you are through the first verse.

Love the song. Especially the reference to Julie Christie. I have a song about her with my friend Phil Doran: (www.reverbnation.com/jeffhoughton?profile_view_source=header_icon_nav) Let me know what you think? And keep on singing those beautiful songs...

[@iguessimryan]

Yeah, I'm pregnant.
