By the band No Doubt. It came along a bunch since the stream that you watched.

Haha, so I've been told.

Absolutely! Four years of this stream shows exactly that.

Hi, Jay, Are your question marks in response to my video and why I didn't play the whole song? If so, in the description section, I explain the purpose of the video.

Hi, Dad.

Not a problem.

Hi, Dad.

Hi, Dad.

Thanks, Dad.

Thanks for the comment, Greg. I know that the sound of the plastic pick is not heard through the guitar channel, but it bugs me a bit when I hear it directly. So it's a preference of mine.

נכון, שיר יפה.

You're welcome, Lala. The trip was nice. I hope that you've been well. Maybe I'll pop into your stream soon. :)

I'm glad to hear that, Rodrigo. :)

learn cold sweat by james brown next from your list, that will get some good, easy riddim going 💁

Really helpful information, thanks. It was also confusing that "Barracuda" suddenly switches to 5/4 time from 4/4 time, haha.

@@sanderabell Thanks for the suggestion. I just listened to it.

It probably was. I try to tune it before every stream, but I don't always remember.

Thank you. Do you have any content of your own?

@@DavidGeliebter like a song no

@@notoriousnowa Do you play an instrument or sing?

Hi, Dad.

Thank you. Yup, I stream practice for only five minutes, but the past few weeks, I've been practicing other material as well. :)

Indeed! Wait until I'm more than 25 minutes into practice and can actually play it sort of well.

@@DavidGeliebter I bet it's better when you're not recording too, the second I go to record myself playing, all my musical abilities vanish 🤣

I don't usually feel pressure, but Day 23 was better than my Day 24 performance, haha.

Hi, Dad.

Cool that you built a uke. To me, chords on a uke sound plasticky, but I like how individually-picked notes sound.

Thank you for your kind words. :)

I can feel when I don't hit certain notes on time. It's like I put my finger down but it's just not in the correct spot. I'm more fluent with guitar, but chose ukulele for this piece as I traveled to Italy and needed to bring along a smaller instrument. Do you want to choose the next song for me to do on guitar and I can show you that my rhythm is better than it is in this video? (The link to the list of songs is in the description section.)

Not a problem, Dad.

Myra, thanks for taking the time to watch and comment. DO you mean dark in terms of lighting or in terms of mood? If lighting, I know that lighting was an issue. This video was filmed on a point-and-shoot camera. How I wished that I would have had my mirrorless camera in time for this video. Ironically, the sound equipment cost more than the camera used for this video, haha. If you meant a dark mood, only the ending has a dark mood. In either case, regarding the video not being worth anyone's time, a lot of people enjoyed it, including the professor and classmates for which I made this extra credit assignment. It is funny and has an important message.

Thanks, Mike. The point of this series (FFF) is to get people to compare Day 1 to Day 24 of each song and encourage them to practice or get started with other seemingly daunting tasks. :)

Thanks for the feedback, Robert. Yes, due to everyone's comments, I've been tuning every day that I play guitar now. The song that I'm doing now is on ukulele (because I have to travel on airplane in the middle and the ukulele is smaller), but I plan on return to the guitar in a few weeks.

It's a good book. I recommend reading it if you're into that kind of book.

Thanks for your comment, Scott. For sure consistency is important! It's better to study for an hour a night for five days than cram for five hours the night before. If nothing else, every time we sleep, the sleep helps us commit the previous day to memory. If you search my channel for "Have You Ever Seen the Rain Day 24", you can see a cool video of me playing the guitar and then playing it back while I layer over the keyboard/synth and vocals, all after just the 24 days of 5 minutes a day of practice. I would not have been able to do that with just two hours of playing one day. :)

My picks are on the bookshelf next to me. I use them sometimes, but I prefer picking with my thumbnail whenever I can. I didn't get too far with this piece after 24 days, but I played some other songs nicely using my thumbnail to pick. :)

Steve, my mom has a masters in music education, so I know that she needed to practice hours a day. I'm not a musician though. Music is a hobby for me. The point of this series (FFF) is to show myself practicing to show people what practice can accomplish and to encourage them to not let perfectionism get in the way of them sharing their work. In my field of health coaching, I see that perfectionism chronically gets in the way of a lot of people. I have videos of myself playing songs accurately, but the point of my FFF videos is to get people to compare Day 1 to Day 24 of each song and encourage them to practice or get started with other seemingly daunting tasks. And thought by Day 24 of practicing this piece, I was not able to play the whole song, there have been other songs which I was able to play after just 5 minutes a day for 24 days. If you search my channel for "Have You Ever Seen the Rain Day 24", you can see a cool video of me playing the guitar and then playing it back while I layer over the keyboard/synth and vocals, all after just the 24 days of practice. :)

@@DavidGeliebter NICE BLOG POST

I prefer playing with my thumbnail rather than a pick whenever I can. And thanks to comments like yours, I began to tune my guitar every day that I play. :)

@@DavidGeliebter keep on plucking! (and tuning)

I am. :)

@@DavidGeliebter fair enough, mate. Sorry for being a dk

Not a problem, Liam. Thanks for the apology. I suspected that you might indeed be a civil person which is why I responded civilly to you. (P.S. You said that I should practice first, but the name of the video IS practice, haha.)

I've gotten a bunch of comments saying the same thing. I had recently tuned my guitar before the stream in question, but based upon feedback, since a few days ago, I've been tuning it right before each stream.

​@@DavidGeliebteri can appreciate somewhat. the true journey classic is for one to walk into the forest naieve and to emerge hero. we don't know the way but we see the what he now is. i don't know what you can attain to under the eye but i hope

Thanks, Smitty. I've gotten a lot better at guitar from doing this FFF project six days a week for the past 3.5 years.

@@DavidGeliebter good job!
