Actually, he doesn't do half-bad, if you like this kinda thing. However, I was able to listen to only half of it, so maybe he does only quarter-bad? Not sure about the math, but the poor guitar!!!

Aw, I thought he did a pretty good job... I started to ask if you could you sing the same song in French, but Alan ... I'm fairly certain you YOU probably could, haha! ;)

Hi, Willa!

Lorsque j'était BEAUCOUP plus jeune, j'était traducteur immédiat...j'aurais pu traduire ça directement...Mais maintenant? Je ne sais pas!

Ça va?

Multi-track video. That's pretty cool. I need to figure out how to make something like that.

Who am I play the critic, but are his eyes glued to a cheat sheet?
It's just that you'd think if he was going to make such a production number out of it he would be past that.

As for the song, it has kind of been rediscovered in the past couple years.
Just so happens that Brian & I took a run at it last Friday. Maybe it will stick, maybe not.

And you should hear what Matt Smith does with it.

Welllllllllllllll...if Matt Smith did it, then you know he did it right, and you know it worked.

It's a simple truth: a good musical idea in the hands of a master can be a great thing. The same idea in the hands of a schlock ends up as little more than junk.

Another simple truth: Matt Smith could turn "Nyeah Nyeah Nyeah Nyeah Nyeah Nyeah" into something musically wonderful.

Not multi-track. Just pasting video snippets over an audio track. And not very well.

Was U crazy about it? No, but I give the guy a lot of credit for having the courage to make a video and post it on YouTube.

Matt takes a whole different tack with that tune. It's wonderful, unexpected, and a helluva lot of fun.

I was bouncing around on youtube after watching this video, and its amazing how many people play Adamii, and get such lousy tone out of them for their recordings.....

Well, I guess it is true what they say: tone is in the hands as well as the guitar.
