[Verse 1] Idle as it seemed Trudging through the mist Following the creeks Erasing dim lines on the list [Verse 2] Eager to arrive Leaving footprints in the clay Reading rocks and vines Telling indigo from grey Telling indigo from grey [Pre-Chorus] Scattered rays of light On dust grains in the air All berries in the tree Earn a steady flare [Chorus] Among the mirrors of the scene Some appear frail and incomplete In a vast field of bales she runs From the deepest valley past the sun [Pre-Chorus] Opening up the vault To find spinning tops in play Embedded nested yarn Diverting from the gates [Chorus] But once the faint elusive moans Evaporate in the morning light All deserted yearnings come to life Surface from the dark to realize How in a vast field she runs From the deepest valley past the sun [Verse] All this time Witness to the changing tides All the while Finding ways how to make sense of all the lights To shake the winds To shake the currents and the rigid hives we're living in All this time Witness to the changing tides [Outro] Idle as a wave Moving out at sea Cruising without sound Molding what's to be Serene between the trails Serene with the time and ink of a ghost

Wow, as a person who is a BIG fan of Nick Drakes music, I am very impressed by this.

I love Jose’s music. He must be connected to some higher energy source or something. It seems to touch people deeply. I have tickets for his show in November. I have to remember to bring Kleenex.

I find this to be the hardest song to play by him because of the rhythm, but glad to see he also has his troubles with playing it (he messes up two times) :D

I have tried to learn this as well, really hard to get the rhythm.

Just playing this is super hard. Singing over it is 100x harder.

The ability to play and sing this requires a sublime talent. I consider Jose Gonzalez to be the absolute apex of the introverted singer/songwriter genre. His playing, the understated vocal delivery and poetic, meaningful lyrics are a truly wonderous combination to experience.

I'm okay playing it. I can't sing it at the same time though 😞

Alberto Suárez Pues ambos tienen una técnica característica con la guitarra. Utilizan mucho el fingerstyle. De hecho se escucha en la música de Jose influencia de Silvio

@dejanmarkovic3040 3 жыл бұрын

god damn it, you can't just casually play along, no...fuckin...you gotta guess the tuning, get a capo....once you start playing a jose song, you're jsut stuck in that tuning for that one track...ok, I'll do it...it might just be the e string tuned down a whole step..but then why the capo...god damn it...

@gustafsonest1306 3 жыл бұрын

It's in drop d. The capo I imagine is for the melody to fit his vocal range. Nevertheless what blows my mind is how you come up with a progression like that and start singing along to it. I imagine he constructed the whole thing in steps. First just the melody with the bass notes and some simple high notes and then start adding until ending with this amazing and incredible hard fingerstyle arpeggio.

@dejanmarkovic3040 3 жыл бұрын

@@gustafsonest1306 The original song is impressive, bit this fiddling around makes complete sense to me. I do that...I learn to play someone's song and if it's in a different tuning, I continue to play around wothin those chords, different...I'm not musically literate, what's the word...different timing, different ways of playing...and then after a few months, I have a song of my own...I wait until it's far enough from the original that it isn't a rip-off, although I know it techixally is, because I would never have come up woth that tuning on my own...and I admit it, I tell people and most people think it's a good idea and don't consider it stealing. Try it for yourself and let me know how it went.
