0:03:35 > 0:03:36Thanks for watching.

0:03:45 > 0:03:48Today I'm going to be showing you how to build a song,

0:03:48 > 0:03:51and keep it interesting and how to add energy.

0:03:51 > 0:03:53Playing by yourself is really awesome,

0:03:53 > 0:03:59but sometimes it's even awesome-er to add more elements to the song.

0:03:59 > 0:04:00- Hey!- Hey-hey.

0:04:00 > 0:04:04- How's it going?- It goes, it goes, and it keeps on going.

0:04:04 > 0:04:06- Keeps on going.- Keeps on going.

0:04:06 > 0:04:08Um, so yeah. Let's jam on this.

0:04:23 > 0:04:24Awesome.

0:04:24 > 0:04:27So, what we did with the...the song

0:04:27 > 0:04:30is we started on the piano, and she just came in.

0:04:30 > 0:04:33And in the pre-chorus, I came in with my guitar.

0:04:33 > 0:04:35And that added another element to the song,

0:04:35 > 0:04:38and it kind of built it and kept it interesting.

0:04:38 > 0:04:42And after that, she just came in on the uke and sang a harmony,

0:04:42 > 0:04:43and that added even more.

0:04:43 > 0:04:46That's something to note - different elements

0:04:46 > 0:04:48can keep the song interesting.

0:04:48 > 0:04:51So, even... There's, like, little things

0:04:51 > 0:04:54that maybe some people wouldn't catch, like...

0:04:54 > 0:04:56I'm playing this.

0:04:56 > 0:04:58And I'm adding these little pushes.

0:05:00 > 0:05:02And she's following that, so...

0:05:02 > 0:05:07What I'm actually doing is I'm adding a major 7th to the chord,

0:05:07 > 0:05:09so, um... I'm playing A.

0:05:09 > 0:05:12And then I go to this major 7.

0:05:12 > 0:05:14And when I go to the major 7 of the A,

0:05:14 > 0:05:16I'm pushing it, so...

0:05:16 > 0:05:18If you hear it... HE EMPHASISES NOTE

0:05:18 > 0:05:20- Hear how I'm anticipating that? - Yeah.

0:05:20 > 0:05:23- HE EMPHASISES NOTE - Whoa.- Yeah.- Yeah.

0:05:23 > 0:05:26So, um... So, without that anticipation, it sounds like...

0:05:26 > 0:05:27LESS EMPHATIC PLAYING

0:05:32 > 0:05:33Now, with.

0:05:33 > 0:05:35HE PLAYS WITH MORE EMPHASIS

0:05:35 > 0:05:38So, it just adds that little bit of flair.

0:05:40 > 0:05:41- BOTH:- Yeah.

0:05:41 > 0:05:45And so, it's really great that she just listened to that

0:05:45 > 0:05:47and copied what I was doing.

0:05:47 > 0:05:50Because, otherwise, it'd kind of rub, and it wouldn't sound great.

0:05:50 > 0:05:53- Mm-hm.- Yeah. Do you have anything else to add?

0:05:53 > 0:05:56I think you pretty much covered it all, yeah. Just adding...

0:05:56 > 0:05:58Adding new elements all the time is important

0:05:58 > 0:06:01- to keep a song interesting, so... - Awesome.- Yeah.
