0:00:22 > 0:00:26# Sunrise, the birds will sing

0:00:29 > 0:00:33# From treetops, they see everything

0:00:36 > 0:00:38# They see how far

0:00:39 > 0:00:44# They see how far we've come

0:01:05 > 0:01:08# It started out alone

0:01:09 > 0:01:10# So beautiful

0:01:12 > 0:01:16# Like the sun is to the moon

0:01:16 > 0:01:18# A perfect circle

0:01:19 > 0:01:22# And I trace it back to you

0:01:23 > 0:01:26# And start all over

0:02:09 > 0:02:11# Love

0:02:11 > 0:02:13# Started out alone

0:02:14 > 0:02:16# So beautiful

0:02:17 > 0:02:21# Like the sun is to the moon

0:02:22 > 0:02:24# A perfect circle

0:02:25 > 0:02:28# And I trace it back to you

0:02:29 > 0:02:32# And start all over

0:02:32 > 0:02:35# Yeah, I trace it back to you

0:02:36 > 0:02:39# And start all over. #

0:02:41 > 0:02:43Thanks, guys.

0:02:51 > 0:02:54Today, I'm going to talk about dynamics, and for an example

0:02:54 > 0:02:56I'm going to use How Far We've Come.

0:02:56 > 0:02:59For this song, I chose to do finger-picking...

0:03:04 > 0:03:06..style, thing for it.

0:03:06 > 0:03:10When people think of dynamics, they often think,

0:03:10 > 0:03:14"Louder, softer." And that's typically what dynamics are,

0:03:14 > 0:03:19but I also chose a finger-picking thing because it also gave me

0:03:19 > 0:03:22a little bit of a warmer...

0:03:22 > 0:03:23sound.

0:03:23 > 0:03:26So if I use the pick, it would have been more like...

0:03:26 > 0:03:30GUITAR IS LOUDER

0:03:31 > 0:03:34That's a little louder, it's a little brighter,

0:03:34 > 0:03:36it's a little harsher.

0:03:36 > 0:03:38So I chose to use my fingers.

0:03:38 > 0:03:42Another thing is, at the end of the song, I chose to hold...

0:03:42 > 0:03:47hold chords as opposed to the constant picking.

0:03:47 > 0:03:51And that was because I wanted to give the listener a break from that

0:03:51 > 0:03:54and I wanted to switch it up, so it kept interesting.

0:03:54 > 0:03:58I just chose the finger picking because it seemed intimate

0:03:58 > 0:04:02and I just really wanted to grab the listener that way.

0:04:02 > 0:04:04That's a little bit about dynamics.

0:04:04 > 0:04:06Thanks for listening, guys,

0:04:06 > 0:04:07and we'll catch you next time.
