The 3 most beautiful chords ever assembled. This band changed my life and to this day I still haven't heard a more melodic band than hum.. Of course failure is a close 2nd, but after 30 years I still never tire of You'd Prefer an Astronaut. Your cover was absolutely beautiful.
Same here brother!! I also love the new Inlet album! In my opinion, that song “Waves” and a lot of other hum songs almost have that dark but melodic sound, almost like a “sitting on a hill overlooking a sunset on your final day left to live” kind of vibe. 😌😌😌
I cant get over this song. It is just 3 chords the whole way through but the way the vocals and occasional guitar variations dance around chord structure is magic.
Back in the day in San Diego our band were big Seam fans and we went to check them out at a small record store and we were smoking some good irie when this dude came up to us and ask for a hit and we of course said SuRE . After getting super stoned I asked him what he was doing here and he was the roadie Mgr for Seam and others from Chicago and he was like “you guys really like Seam”? We said Yes of course and he said well there cool but let me tell you about this band HUM they are heavy and super Shoe Gazy and that was it. HUM came to play and actually blew out the entire sound system at The Casbah and that all she wrote. LoL. Love HUm.
Wow what a great way to be introduced! My dad was listening to “Stars” and I loves it haha, so I checked out their other stuff and saw that they had a new album out in 2020 and got so excited! Listened to the whole thing and “Waves” is still my favorite song today! I love Hum and soon I’m getting a banner custom made on Amazon and hanging it up on my wall, I’ll upload a video on my UA-cam page when I get it set up so you can see it if interested. Stay blessed! 🙏🤗
Haha I just listened to that album and they did have some that stayed authentic to the songs but the others that tried to make it sound cooler and twist it up a bit was just terrible sounding and stupid haha
Hi! Just trying to help as much as I can: The chords on guitar are played in drop d tuning, same shape. I'm not a banjo player but I know the root note of each chord is d sharp, G, d sharp, C. In that order. Hope this helps, good luck!
this is lovely! i've been trying to play this out on banjo, but can't figure out the chords. Would you mind giving me the secrets? Either way, beautiful interpretation of a great song.

I tried to copy as many of the album version sounds as possible, harmonies as well as guitars
for any hum fan this is a perfect acoustic cover. great job!
Sincere and pure. This is outstanding.
