Wow, not one "That song is easy" post in a thread like this? People must be on vacation

I can play a lot of songs but they sound like ass most of the time.

Right now, Crush is my favorite one and that "Crazy, I'm thinking ..." part just sounds like a monkey playing guitar with a hammer.

I watch Dave's fingers and there's always a purpose to his finger positions ... It's like there's never a wasted digit. If it's not part of the chord it's helping mute a string ... I'm not used to doing that.

Now, when I started last May playing Dave's stuff I sucked ass. Now I just kinda stink. I'm hoping by next year I'm just bad

I can sort of do a version of Grace is Gone....but I'll never be able to get a version where I'd be comfortable enough to play for someone. It may be the picking/fingerpicking that's killing me. I usually strum my own variation of it with hammer-ons and stuff. If I could pick it like Dave I would.

Certain songs present more of a challenge of me than others. Playing PFWYG is easy as cake, but timing it with the words has been a challenge I have been too lazy to perfect.

YKN, I also have trouble making the chorus to Crush sound full, and So Right.

is YNK hard to play in standard? i have a crappy old guitar and i put it in raised b for fun...ynk was easy to catch on to singing and all...and im not that good.

lotta people mentioning it tho....maybe the standard isnt the same?

Funny, I sang this one like 4 times today. If you listen to the song enough, you can hear it in your head, the voicings come easily while playing. For me anyways, which might be why I can sing and play most every Dave song I know.
