    Warren-- you are like a musical chemist, breaking it all down and showing us the formula. Thanks for the best tutorial on UA-cam of Airbag. It is one of my all time favorite songs and I think even Thom would be impressed by your ear for his masterpieces.
    I am buying all of the songs you cover, so you are making him more $.
    You should at the very least get a backstage pass for promoting Radiohead's music.
    Thanks for bringing a ton of enjoyment back into my guitar sessions.

    After years of searching for tutorials on Radiohead songs, I have finally found your channel. Very informative, and you have a friendly, fun delivery. I can safely say, that with your help, I have finally perfected an acoustic version of Airbag. Thanks a million!

    I got mine figured out after seeing the performance at the Les Eurockeennes de Belfort in 97 but I never figured out the tuning until I saw the acoustic version recently. Such an exciting song to play. Great job as always, Warren!

  • @warrenmusic
    @warrenmusic  13 років тому +2

    @ceridawn You've got the second chord revered (you write "7+8 3rd and 4th"). It's actually 7th fret of the 4th string, 8th fret of the 3rd string there. The third chord (you write "6+7 3rd and 4th") you press the 7th fret of the 4th string and 3rd string. The verse in tab form now: first chord - x07600, second chord - x07800, third chord - x07700. I thought it was clear in the video though, no? Anyway, hope that was helpful, dear.

  • @Conacostock
    @Conacostock 14 років тому

    15 Step is too easy and it isn't hard to find fairly accurate tabs of such a simple song on a guitar tabs website. Then again with a song that easy, Warren could probably dish out a tutorial on it in no time just for the hell of it. Anyway, I'm thinkin more along the lines of Go To Sleep. You're still my youtube hero, Warren!

    I never paid much attention to this band after hearing "Creep", but at the urging of a friend, I listened to this song years later and I was totally sold. This remains my favorite of theirs. You do such an admirable job of covering it. Your vocal and acoustic translation might even be better than Yorke's. The verse (your part2) reminds me of Joni Mitchell's "For The Roses" (much before your time). I'm sure it's just coincidence, although she did influence a lot of Brits ...

  • @warrenmusic
    @warrenmusic  14 років тому

    @Conacostock Good observation. Yeah, forgot to mention Thom uses his thumb for that. The neck on my Carter Poulsen is a little meatier so that makes it hard for me to use the thumb without losing the 1E string or failing to mute the 5A. A matter of preference/ergonomics, so to each his own.

  • @warrenmusic
    @warrenmusic  14 років тому

    @Sophomoreable Hmm, I go over it on the video. You can't hear me explain the fingers/frets? Use your ring finger on the 9th fret 3rd string, index on the 7th fret same string, index again on the 6th fret same string, ring finger this time on the 7th fret same string, back to the index on the 6th fret same string, add the middle finger on the 7th fret 4th string and strum the chord away.

  • @warrenmusic
    @warrenmusic  14 років тому

    @Joormode You can use your index; although yes, if your thumb can do it with some effort, practice it until it becomes natural. Many chord shapes will open up to you if you employ your thumb...

    I've been having trouble crossing my middle finger over to the 7th fret of the 6th string in the intro, when it moves from the 8th fret to the 7th. Just a tip for anyone, I noticed Thom uses his thumb to hit that 7th fret on a different version than the one Warren based his lesson/cover off of and I find that much easier.

    @deandave24 Try searching "Radiohead Airbag Acoustic" and sift through them. Thom played this version of it by himself numerous times last year on tour.

  • @warrenmusic
    @warrenmusic  14 років тому

    @futurfry That would create an Amajadd2no3, which is not the chord I hear Thom using in the solo version. Can't say the same for the album version, but then again that version doesn't even use acoustic tuned this way.

    Hi Warren. What model is your guitar please? Sounds really nice. Great lesson as always.

    • @warrenmusic
      @warrenmusic  4 роки тому

      Carter Poulsen G-Model. Handmade in Santa Cruz, CA! You can find them on Facebook.

    • @jimioutback
      @jimioutback 4 роки тому

      @@warrenmusic Thanks Warren. Lovely sounding guitar, and I'm glad the kickstarter worked out. I usually find light coloured tops a little bright in the treble, but this G-model seems a perfect halfway between the often bright cedar/spruce that I'm used to hearing and the darker sounding hog top I now have (Sigma 000-15m+ after owning Crafter, Seagull and Taylor). Treble strings aren't too bright in the G-Model and the guitar seems so rich and resonant, even over UA-cam.
      I once had the chance to play a Lowden (they were made a few miles from where I live in N.Ireland), sceptically thinking "How can an acoustic guitar cost thousands of $?!" when an American standard strat' costs only $800 new. But the sound was just so resonant and alive, and full of delicious complimentary subtle rich undertones and overtones, all the beautiful woods open and breathing...and I understood there's more to a nice acoustic guitar than a nice electric one.

    • @warrenmusic
      @warrenmusic  4 роки тому

      It is the most well-balanced guitar I've ever played. Great for all-around, every style. Fingerpicking is where it shines most, though.

  • @vruls
    @vruls 3 роки тому

    On a more theoretical side, does anyone know what key/mode is the original song in? It's supposed in D major, but the song barely teaches the root chord, also Thom seems to use lots of notes outside of the scale for his vocal melody

    • @warrenmusic
      @warrenmusic  3 роки тому

      I would say that the song is in A Major with some modal borrowing. Respectfully, there is no way D is the tonal center of the song, IMO... even the tuning doubles the A on the 2nd string since it's detuned a whole step.
