In commemoration of all the Beatles things going on today, I thought I'd upload a cover of a great Barenaked Ladies song. Be My Yoko Ono.
Wow this song is really hard to play and sing at the same time, that rapid fire strumming is insane. It's kind of sloppy, I only practiced it a bit today....kind of thought that it should be uploaded today with all the Beatles stuff going on.

"I like to play that guitar. I have to stare at it while I'm playing it because I'm not very good at playing it."
Noel Gallagher (who took the words right out of my mouth)
that chord progression. C E F G is so close to the classic C Am F G ( Heart and Soul, ie.) I have to think that Lennon intentionally changed the Am to E. how that simple change Lennon's makes such a different song. my ears are so conditioned to hearing the Am the E stands out and actually sounds weird. that's just me.
your maple guitar sounds great. it is so bright and articulate. capo ed, it sounds like a soprano.
nice playing even with the off camera distractions.
Thanks guys! I really like the Quilted Maple Ibanez, that makes 2 Ibanez guitars I've got from the Exotic Wood series, love them both!
I didn't even think about the chord progression being a Lennon thing. But I bet doughnuts to dollars Barenaked Ladies did. They don't do anything without a reason, even in their comedy songs.
