Description:

More fun with a Macy Gray R&B tune for the discerning lead riff aficionado. This is what I call the "rifferiffic" version. Blues'd out, blissed out, bagged, shagged & tagged, this lonely derelict example of some of my most rifferiffic guitar playing sits unviewed in a sea of flashy, faster videos. Funk guitar? Blazing metal leads? Not here, just pure groovy satisfaction, presented in my inimitable signature ragged sense of rhythm. (Go on, try to imitate it. I dare you.) Aspiring guitarists take note: once, I was like you, a beginner with a vast panoply of options before me, a worldly man, seduced and jaded by material things. Always practice with a metronome, or risk the consequences you see before you. I think my leg is asleep. As always, apologies for my vocals. ALERT: Ok, seeing as how this video is getting like no views, I'm gonna point out: It has nothing to do with Nirvana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit", Hannes Coetzee, dancing on treadmills, Timbaland, or playing "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" on ukelele. C'mon, man, I don't like this any more than you do. I'm just trying to get my jam seen. Rate it, while you're here, make me feel loved. Look how dark my room is. I need it. Thanks!

Thanks, man! I've been asking myself the same question ;-) Actually, I think it comes down to 2 things: a.) I need to work on my vocals, and b.) I need to put a pretty girl in my videos instead of me. [sigh]

Actually, they're these little cheap clip-on LED lights I found in the drugstore. I wish they made them in other colors. (And again and again, thanks!)
