Hi Everyone,

We have a new Target and Pay Per Lesson release for you, Goodnight Elisabeth by The Counting Crows!


Counting Crows is an American rock band from Berkeley, California, formed in 1991.

Goodnight Elisabeth is taken from their 2nd album ‘Recovering The Satellites’, released in 1996.

The song features a four chord progression all the way through, and this lesson shows how to play it in both
the key of G (capoed on the 2nd fret) and A, as done by the band.

It also teaches a way of playing the melodic intro, which their guitar player performs on an electric guitar.

This requires some accuracy and flatpicking skills from the right hand, and a few techniques such as slides,
hammer-ons and pull-offs for the left hand.

Counting Crows performs the song in countless different ways. This includes the key (G or A), the tempo,
the intro and especially the vocal melody. Anyone tackling the song is encouraged to find their own way.

Enjoy this level 5 lesson!

Hey TGNess,

I don’t know this song, but I REALLY enjoyed your preview/playthrough. :)

I obviously need to check out more Counting Crows.

Thanks for broadening my musical horizons and showing us how to add this one to our repertoire.

Thanks!

Shel

Hey Shel, thank you!!!

Actually i've done this song in the busking 3/4 chords thread a long time ago. But.....i did a dutch version of it, which is definitely the one that i know best.

Actually, speaking of a long time ago (just checked the date), yesterday marked my 5 year anniversary as a teacher at TG. :ohmy: B) How time goes by. Can't say that it flies. It does in a sense, but it doesn't in another, if you get my point. It's been an intense five years. :blink:

In any way, still moving forwards obviously and off to camp in August! :) xo
