sugar will is...

[czech]

people didnt seem to dig it last year, but i'm listening to it (only saw it once last year) and the guitar is just to... i dont know a term, id almost say dynamic and erie. it isnt up tempo like the old stuff, but it doesnt lul like tunes like LLD.
just such a good mesh with the drums and the sax just sings for dave it seems.

god damn, gonna pick another 04 set to listen to today at work.

I've neevr listened tot he whole thing before. Never really liked it. Maybe I should give it a shot... I have the one from the WH disc.

i really liked the one from GGP, but i was just listening to the recording from TOronto last year, it was great.

and yeah, I love AB. After hearing what the lyrics were about on story tellrs i liked it a bit more too.

OK, i think i just fell in love with this song. I guess this is what dave was talkign about when he said he doesnt want to try and cram a bunch of words into 4 measures or whatever.

but damn it's such not a traditional dave song, but it works so well.

Actually it was written before Dave started to use that philosophy of song writing. I think it is pretty crammed with words, he hardly stops singing throughout it. Anyway, the song is amazing like you said, and that guitar part is just so cool.

The way everything fits together is stellar. It's one of my favorite songs of recent time.

Sugar Will is simply one of the best songs Dave has written in the past 4-5 years.

sugar will is great, i play it on my electric with high reverbe and slight delay...........its so sweet.
i like the ersion they give you with the stand up disk.
i really dont get the american baby thing, they are very different.

Is the timing of the song really that weird?
I was looking at a tab online and i think it said that part of it was 7/8 tioming, but then you play the 7/8 twice followed by a 2/8 or something since carter is playing a 4/4 the whole time.

me = idiot with music.

[paulaitchison]

the timing is only odd on the chorus, i found a really good bass tab, when i learnt that, i saw how easily that funny timing actually is, its just as it sounds.
something about learning the bass tab, even if you dont play bass i find helps you realy get a song, my crush sounded 1000 times cooler once i worked out how the bass and guitar interplay and ajusted my guitar playing and approach accordingly.
sugar will is great, and easy to learn, it basicly involves finding a chord, and dancing your pinky up and down in an odd manner, and then repeating at a diffrent position, once you learn the pinky riff (quite tough on you finger and mind) the song comes in seconds cause all you gotta do is move it around.
if you play it as it sounds in your head, some how, dispite the complex 4/4 Vs 7/8,,,,,,it comes together without paying attention to the timing
