Phoebe Bridgers "If It Makes You Happy" (Sheryl Crow) live @ Pappy and Harriet's July 21, 2018 (3/3)

For context, at the beginning of the video Phoebe is referring to a deadly shooting that took place that morning at a Trader Joe's in LA, about a 2 hour drive from where we were.
Phoebe Bridgers live at Pappy and Harriet's in Pioneertown, CA on July 21, 2018. Lomelda opened the show, and I believe Phoebe mentioned this was Emily Retsas' first tour with her.
Meant to upload these after the show but somehow managed to misplace them and they got a little lost.

I've been long, a long way from here Put on a poncho, played for mosquitoes And drank 'til I was thirsty again We went searching through thrift store jungles Found Geronimo's rifle, Marilyn's shampoo And Benny Goodman's corset and pen Well okay, I made this up I promised you I'd never give up If it makes you happy It can't be that bad If it makes you happy Then why the hell are you so sad? We get down, areal low down You listen to Coltrane, derail your own train Well, who hasn't been there before? I come proud, around the hard way Bring you comics in bed, scrape the mold off the bread And serve you French toast again Well okay, I still get stoned I'm not the kind of girl you'd take home If it makes you happy It can't be that bad If it makes you happy Then why the hell are you so sad? If it makes you happy It can't be that bad If it makes you happy Then why the hell are you so sad? We've been far Far away from here Put on a poncho, played for mosquitoes And everywhere in between Well okay, we get along So what if right now everything's wrong? If it makes you happy It can't be that bad If it makes you happy Then why the hell are you so sad? If it makes you happy It can't be that bad If it makes you happy Then why the hell are you so sad?

God I love her voice. She really step up for this one. Here's to her doing more soulful songs like this on her next album.

[@DS-nw4eq]

She’s trash. Weakest voice in the industry aside from Billie Eilish.

[@willywonka4690]

She's not from this planet....

she tuned her guitar by ear?? thats mad impressive

8th graders do it.

[@anthonyfuchs9787]

Yeah, it's not "mad impressive" though.

[@therapist_insanity]

@@anthonyfuchs9787 maybe to you it isnt

[@rqshades]

Two things. 1) A roadie/tech handed her an untuned guitar? WTF? 2) She didn't tune it by ear, you can see her looking down at her tuner pedal. Bonus #3, I'm not even sure someone with perfect pitch would have an easy time tuning an (essentially) unplugged electric by ear over crowd noise while carrying a conversation. I'm always so confused when people put normal musicianship on some kind of pedestal. I mean, sure, it's a talent/skill, but it's not magic, especially here. The original has a laid back swing that loads up the chorus for an emotive eruption. This cover, despite the dynamic change from the solo to full band in the beginning, never captures that build, it just chugs along until the chorus, which has no dynamic impact to differentiate it from the verse other than Phoebe's airy, shouted lyrics. It's a middle of the road, dive bar band quality cover. It's not bad, but for a signed, certified singer/guitarist, this is sub-par. Time to find better search results for covers of this song.​@@therapist_insanity

[@kaileyconner1123]

Can anyone tell what tuning her guitar is in?

[@josephmillervideos]

what i’m trying to know too

[@marknomura7453]

Open E (E-B-E-G#-B-E), capo 3. That, however, increases the string tension a bit, so an alternative would be to tune a whole step down to open D and capo 5, if you want to stay in the same key.

you need better speakers or better ears. Yes, is not very clear and you can't understand the words clearly but it's there. Also why are you complaining about it like this is a pro studio recording?
