up from a spell. Que Verde is dusting its hands of some old and
not so old songs, and have finished recording them for an upcoming
record. It's tentatively titled The Most Important Thing
and we're happy about finally being able to share these bits and
pieces with people.

Summery
Wind
Date of composition: August 2001, Bethesda Notes: This song, like Superimpose, is played in an E tuning, for people marginally interested in guitar information. I don't pretend to actually know what I'm playing when I'm playing the guitar, but I do like mixing around with tunings sometimes. Further notes to that end: Your Face is in drop D while Mixtape is in full D-tuning. I like tuning to E, though: slightly dissonant and seems to make things sound more melancholy. Breathe Summery wind. Hurry my dear before new season begins. Take a step outside, Feel the warm summer sun, Let it wash all over you, Let yourself come undone. See all those familiar things that you've seen so many times Put on a pair of brand new eyes, and notice all those things you've overlooked before I'm beginning to see there's so much more. So many surprises. Hear Summery sound. The hum of nighttime and your voice echoes all around. Don't want to say goodbye So I won't say goodbye. Instead I'll say so long to these summer days with you, they're almost gone. So throw caution to that summer wind, Feel a new season begin. |
