Sophie - Original

I am surprised BDG didn't become well known sooner. What a truly talented man.

I read that as ‘surprised BDG hasn’t become a boomer’ and had a stroke

[@lufocity9339]

I'm surprised The Altogether didn't become popular until Brian became popular.

FACTS

[@lemontree8131]

as someone who plays guitar (rather poorly) his finger picking skills are SICK

[@XantorzDralhorIV]

I have been trying to learn this all afternoon... and I only have the first ~ four measures done... of the simpler version on the EP.

[@lenatour]

@@XantorzDralhorIV did you get the pattern from watching this video or did you find it somewhere? because i want to play it too but im not skilled enough to pick it up from the video

[@XantorzDralhorIV]

@@lenatour kzbin.info/www/bejne/bXOzool3mcloibM This is what they put on their EP, I too am not skilled enough to play the version on this one. I can't get it quite yet but I'm getting there. I used the ultimate guitar page for the base chords. (tabs.ultimate-guitar.com/tab/the-altogether/sophie-chords-2608584). Key of Bb, but you can put the capo on the third fret to play it as if you were in G. (But it makes the G go up three semitones but you probably get the gist.) If you want, I can help by sharing what I do have of the picking pattern. Its still pretty difficult but yeah.

This is one my favorite songs that the two of them have done. It's soft and lovely,,, I honestly prefer this version over the Spotify/studio version. The drums aren't as prominent, and it makes the song feel...gentler in a way

[@uhh_sid]

I have been a fan of their music for years and I’ve been obsessed with Brian’s Unraveled series for years. Was nobody going to tell me they were the same person until now??? It’s been like 2 years???

[@minerharry]

As with all of the altogether’s music, the instrumental progression is phenomenal in this song - when Brian starts on the ukulele, you can barely hear it, and it comes in so so smoothly that when Joseph came in on the guitar it felt like the ukulele was always there. That kind of volume control is not easy! A phenomenal performance from Brian and Jonah, all those years ago😊

[@douglasparkinson4123]

ok but we gotta stop giving brian all the credit for this band.

[@theartpuppet4220]

This popped up right after watching Howl's moving castle and.......what do I think now!? I love it so much.

[@LOLgrl50]

i think this is quite possibly my favorte song of all time . ive been listening to it constantly, including the time a few weeks ago when i listened to literally just this song on repeat for like four straight days on spotify. it means a lot to me, in a time of chaos and transitions, and i just want to say thanks, i guess. (also. the way it intesnifies at "but lately you've been calling me baby" and "all the same, i think were winning this game" literally makes me go !!!! like my chest expands and i hope to have someone i can sing this too some day, someone who makes my chest feel that same way. maybe she'll be named sophie, who knows)

[@sophiesoph]

hey I like this one

[@pyromaniac4240]

I don't know what it is about this song but, wow it makes me emotional. I guess it reminds me of all the loves I've had/haven't had/have yearned for, and it just completely transports me back to high school when I started listening to The Alogether/bdg (it sounds super dumb to say that since I'm a freshman in college but with covid, senior year feels like years ago at this point). I dunno, maybe I'm just being dumb, but god I love this song.
