Hey Everybody,
Nesh has put together a lesson on a remake of a Sinatra classic, Something Stupid, which includes a Play Through with Corina.
Something Stupid is a song written and recorded by C. Carson Parks. It became a major international hit for Frank and his daughter Nancy Sinatra in 1967. In 2001 a cover version by British artist Robbie Williams and Australian actress Nicole Kidman became a hit as well.
This lesson teaches how to play the song in the key of G as how Williams and Kidman recorded it.
We also take a look at the key of D, where the guitar is capoed on the 2nd fret. This puts everything in the absolute key of E which is how the Sinatra's did it.
Both keys use relatively easy chord shapes and an easy strumming pattern. To dress it up a bit, we also break down a little tricky 'bounce' for the latter.
Something Stupid by Robbie Williams & Nicole Kidman
Wow! How GREAT to see you two together again! Of course, you both sound wonderful as usual!
Nesh, your lesson is thorough and detailed as always. I probably won't tackle this one since I'm not a singer but always something to learn in TG lessons!
