Welcome to what feels like “just another manic monday” (damnit, I just had to quote the Bangles – shoot me now). One of the busiest days of my…entire…existence. And I still found the time to bring a session to you today. Session-a-day must roll forth. Getting right there to the end of 2008 will see the release of 365 videos between four performers. Simply amazing that we are nearing the end of the year.
Ok, away from that, today’s session. I have to admit, this is a song i’ve known how to play for a long time, and i’ve kept it in store for a day like today where practice time was small at best. A hit by U2 from their album “The Joshua Tree” is the song “With or Without You”. This song, similar to a previous session by Tom Petty “Learning to Fly”, features a repeated four-chord pattern that plays through the entire song. Again, however, the original song is not based on an acoustic guitar so again, making it a Laptop Session is really interesting.
I did a decent job singing this one, but did mistime one word, and one chord slightly. Since I imagine many youtube viewers don’t read the entire description, i’m sure i’ll have to filter out some comments in the near future about those very small mistakes.
Anyway, enjoy today’s session, and make sure you’re here tomorrow for 100KJim’s newest session!
