"Seven Nation Army" by The White Stripes - Adam Pearce (Acoustic Cover)

You didn't know I was a drummer too did you? I'm so not a drummer, but I'm glad my loop pedal experiment worked out. This song really doesn't work without some sort of percussion involved.
I think I started playing this song way back in the Black Magnolia (my old rock band) days. Had to resurrect it for this channel. Hope ya dig it!

Lyrics:
I'm gonna fight 'em all
A seven nation army couldn't hold me back
They're gonna rip it off
Taking their time right behind my back
And I'm talking to myself at night
Because I can't forget
Back and forth through my mind
Behind a cigarette
And the message coming from my eyes
Says, "Leave it alone"
Don't wanna hear about it
Every single one's got a story to tell
Everyone knows about it
From the Queen of England to the Hounds of Hell
And if I catch it coming back my way
I'm gonna serve it to you
And that ain't what you want to hear
But that's what I'll do
And the feeling coming from my bones
Says, "Find a home"
I'm going to Wichita
Far from this opera forevermore
I'm gonna work the straw
Make the sweat drip out of every pore
And I'm bleeding, and I'm bleeding, and I'm bleeding
Right before the Lord
All the words are gonna bleed from me
And I will sing no more
And the stains coming from my blood
Tell me, "Go back home"

Nice! What's your setup?

[@AriMalatesta]

@@AdamPearceMusic Rghit now is a telecaster (Tiff) an a pacifica (Lilith) that has been trusted to me by a dear friend ,and a small Fender amp (my Little Dragon) and that's is all... Mi Takamine acoustic was lost on a separation some months ago... you know, s*** happens. But it was the takamine, mi loved Camilla (A washburn N2 that I got on 1992) and a fender twin and a vox AC15... but I worked for years just as a man and his guitar... much in your style. So I appreciate it and thank you for the music.

[@DSKim-ej5uf]

When I watch your video, it feels like an ecstatic and pleasant wind brushes my cheeks as the sun goes down in the field and evening. Even if it's just a passing relationship that I've never seen offline or don't know the name of, even if it's over a mountain or across the sea, even if it's far away, like this in the online KZbin world. Thank you for the algorithm that you can meet with great images. Like a grain of sand on the beach, I am very lucky to have accidentally encountered an algorithm introduction video among countless videos. Even if strong waves are swept away in the vast expansive and fantastic space of KZbin, I will not forget the relationship we met with your beautiful video for a long time. When I watch your videos on KZbin, everything feels like a dream. Your videos shine the brightest on my KZbin window right now. I'm happy that I finally found what I'm looking for. I want to share the stories that happened while making your KZbin video by sitting next to a bonfire by the river with a beautiful view. Life is like a bonfire that disappears without a word, leaving ashes in the smoke. Please continue to upload your wonderful videos often. How did you have such a wonderful talent that is full of the mysterious charm of your video? Just because the thumbnail caught my eye, I accidentally saw your video, and I liked it the most and fell in love with your channel. Your video is the best. Your video, which I feel was made with unsparing sincerity, has a feeling that positive energy will surely come to you in the future and will receive a lot of love soon, so my heart is very happy. At this moment when a little nostalgia approached, I caught my eye on your KZbin window, passing by an unknown and mysterious algorithm. You have the ability to make your videos instantly stunning and attractive. My past memories that shimmer in your video are stained with nostalgia.

[@5yearsout]

Worked out all right? Yes, you nailed it as always. BTW the flub is what makes live music great in my opinion.

[@AdamPearceMusic]

I agree! I don't mind little mess-ups here and there. They give it it's human element. Thank you!

[@JohnDoesGarage]

The key to playing any instrument is to play through mistakes as if they never happened because the audience probably wouldn't notice unless you point it out. There are so many reasons why I love following you on this channel. You introduce me to music I never would have listened to if it were not for you covering those songs here. Thank you for that and now I have another band introduced to me.

[@AdamPearceMusic]

Thanks, dude! I think you'll enjoy The White Stripes!

[@tpxrp6244]

How in the hell do you sing like that? The voice can go with any song. Do you recommend singing lessons? Guitar is great too!

Hey Adam. I really like what you are doing on your channel. I look forward to Thursdays. I think your Martin sounds great and I was wondering what gauge strings you use on it. The way you bend the strings I'm thinking something thinner (10s or 11s) but I didn't think an acoustic could sound so good with lighter strings. If you don't mind, let me know.

[@AdamPearceMusic]

Well I really appreciate that, Jim. You are correct! I use D'addario 10s.

Please please please try an open B MAJOR when you play the middle 8 play standard E MINOR STANDARD C MAJOR AND STANDARD B MAJOR OPEN B first finger on the A string on the second fret second finger on the D string first fret 3rd finger on the G string 2nd fret IT SOUNDS EPIC ON ACOUSTIC TRUST ME MATE YOU WON'T REGRET IT

[@BobVermaes]

I didn't catch the flub.

[@RogersGirl88]

This is why i never even try to excel at anything. There are people so good at things who only have a few thousand views, whereas a semi attractive girl with a pink wig crosses her eyes and spits on a microphone and gets billions of dollars from simps. Why bother?

[@AdamPearceMusic]

I promise I feel your frustration, brother. But at the end of the day, or in 30 years, I can look back and feel proud of what I've created. What they create is fake. It may bring them attention and even riches. But it's fake and soulless. Everyone knows it, including them. There is immense joy that comes from being a professional at something, and that extends beyond money. Something that those mindless content creators will never enjoy. Create something that you would be proud of and it will attract those with integrity. Thank you for the kind words, brother. Rock on!
