    You have a very effective way of teaching people to play to the song who have a grasp of guitar. I think using your vocal keeps it in real time and really helps. Keep posting,

  • @MalquiLans
    @MalquiLans Před 6 lety +1

    I'd like to add, the first chord is Bowie's Bb at the standard position 1st fret where he plays it very loosely with low A & E strings, & the F is also played with a hit 'n miss open low E string. And don't forget folks, before "That's it" in this vid, we should have the progression up the neck from F to Bb via Gm & Am :- (F)La (Gm)La (Am)La, before it repeats from the Bb. I hope that helps also

  • @richellmcknight446

    Thank you soooooo much, this is great! Chordify leaves out sooo much, I suspected that initial 4 chord was a major 7, glad my ear is getting good enough to pick that up, yeah!!!! As a pianist, Bowie's music is challenging, as a guitarist( a fairly new guitarist), it's a logistical nightmare!😂😂😂💜

  • @aquamarine99911
    @aquamarine99911 Před 6 lety

    Everyone seems to miss this (not just you), but in the intro Bowie does a high E to high F thing over both then Bb and F chords. It's easy enough to play - just let the top E string ring out when playing the first two beats of the Bb chord, then mute the E string (with your index finger) for the last two beats so that the F on the B string is the high note. And the same with the F chord - leave the E-string open, then lower your index finger onto the high F.

  • @sj122s

  • @realraven2000
    @realraven2000 Před 8 dny

    The start is great, right out the gate! I was wodnering how he got the #11 on that Bb chord. For me as a kayboardist both the thumb and leaving space for the open G is a realy challenge though, I always struggle with the left hand. As a self-taught mandolin player I have no trouble with the right hand, but guitar on the left is always hell.
