    This song is a pain in the ass to sing while picking through these chords. Very impressive the way they play this live

      ***** I agree when it comes to songs like this or really any rhythm. I just hate Les Pauls for lead playing cuz I have big hands!

    Andrew sounds great here! Not sure why he goes for a much softer voice at live shows.

    • @coldbutcomfortablewinterbr2636
      @coldbutcomfortablewinterbr2636 5 років тому +29

      Cause he prolly needs to keep his voice for the rest of the show and the tour.

      Alexa VanWyngarden Do you know the bbc radio 1 session of weekend wars?
      (It‘s on the time to pretend single)
      This one is my favorite one and I like it even more than the studio/album edition. :)

    its cool that keyboard player actually plays the arpeggio and not through synth.

      I can't believe that he's keeping the arpeggios so consistent with one hand while playing a totally different keyboard with the other hand and singing all at the same time, what a legend.

    • @IndigoVagrant

  • @Weezman
    @Weezman 12 років тому +53

    his voice at the beginning sounds like a young Mick Jagger in this song. The rest combo with Pink Floyd ...Rush...Beatles (psychedelic) ...which makes this a total jam!!

  • @315562212

    maybe someone will want to kill me, or not, but... in this song they sound like The Beatles, at less in the first minute, and i dont know how that can be possible. but i think that that's one of the reasons why i respect this band

    • @TheRedJokerrr
      @TheRedJokerrr 7 років тому

      GA BBA His voice is too broken, and the guitar sounds too heavy imo to sound like The Beatles. It’s still pop rock so yeah you got some Beatles in it, duh, but to me it’s not that close to that sound
