[@heleneverett8067]

You're a great teacher.

[@davedoingguitar]

Thanks so much Helen! :)

[@SGC90-t5y]

Excellent breakdown, probably the best I have seen for this track. Do you have a full playthrough of this recorded? If so I would like to see you play it.

[@davedoingguitar]

Thanks so much! Yep full cover is linked in the description 👍

[@clinteastcoast]

Nice tutorial, thanks. Glad i found your channel, ive subbed. 🤘

[@davedoingguitar]

Hey thanks so much! 😁

[@darkoprintshop9927]

These videos are great!

[@davedoingguitar]

Thanks so much! Glad you enjoy them :)

[@normansaurikov9183]

It's so strange that I decided to listen to this song today and do own cover after so much time, and you posted the tutorial a month ago

[@davedoingguitar]

Haha yeah one of those strange things I guess. Hopefully it helps you out! :)

[@j.l.3038]

Excellent

[@davedoingguitar]

Thanks so much :)

[@purplepanda2169]

Excellent as always !! Awesome tone . Any chance of a “You can’t quit me baby “ tutorial in the near future ??

[@davedoingguitar]

Thanks so much :) ah that's such a great tune, I'll pop it on the list!

[@zacharybrant7783]

How do you get that tone?

[@violethill4454]

hey mate, awesome tutorial as always! :D I would just like to recommend if you can you do Beetlebum by Blur next?

[@davedoingguitar]

Thanks so much :) Beetlebum is a great tune, good guitar parts. I'll see what I can do for you :)

[@violethill4454]

@@davedoingguitar Thanks man, really appreciate it! Yeah, I'd say it's one of Blur's best song as well

[@JeserNoob]

Hey man the cover is blocked in the USA and comments are closed?? Just a heads up. Also, fingers crossed I can learn this!!!

[@davedoingguitar]

Oh really? That's weird. First time I've heard of that happening to one of my videos. Thanks for letting me know

[@JeserNoob]

@@davedoingguitar my mistake i meant the original video is closed, your cover is fine

[@lenchman]

How do you keep the C in tune??

[@davedoingguitar]

Yeah it definitely slips out often down low. My guitars aren't set up for drop tunings or anything so I just make do as best I can. I just practice through the songs and try to be aware of not being overly attacking on the strings and bends etc which can all make you sound wonky. I definitely sound a bit wonky sometimes though haha.

[@maali82]

finally someone who shares my bad habit (at least that's what REAL guitarists keep saying :P) to play powerchords with my pinky!

[@davedoingguitar]

You can have the unco technique ever and still be brilliant - Zappa's picking technique, people with the strings the wrong way etc. Real guitarists play the right notes, doesn't matter how you get there! :)

[@maali82]

@@davedoingguitar heh yeah... kurt cobain was a ring finger barre / pinky powerchorder too :D

[@alvin156]

Just really curious, why are you always teaching songs in non-standard tuning, particularly the drop D

[@alvin156]

I am a big radiohead fans, for example your tutorials include Bodysnatchers, House of Cards, Jigsaw , 2+2, Optimistic. Only 15 Step is standard, most of them are drop D(or involved 6th string as D) also some Jeff buckley, Porcupine Tree Haha just wondering, have you noticed that?

[@davedoingguitar]

@@alvin156 haha yeah that's true. Outside of standard tuning, drop D is probably the most common tuning guitarists use as it's very simple to tune to (only one string changes), it helps thicken up the sound, and power chords can be played with one finger meaning you have more fingers to use on other chord tones. Plus it just sounds cool and makes riffing easier haha.

[@davedoingguitar]

@@alvin156 and in terms of other non-standard tunings, I just happen to like bands/get requests for songs that regularly use alternate tunings such as QOTSA and American Football etc. Plenty of standard tuning songs as well though haha
