ive dissected this song quite a bit lately and its that he is pairing a minor minor verse with a major minor chorus. Its something like G-D-Em5-Am7. But a step higher with the capo. So then its something like F sharp throughout. You are right, it is actually magic. F sharps match the Earths vibrational hertz.
"I don't wanna go back Nobody's gonna push me off track I don't wanna be this Good people gotta fight to exist" Best song of 2019. Truth & beauty. Thank you Alex G.
Not to take away at all from his creativity and originality, but Alex for me is like Elliot Smith reincarnated, he is completely filling that emotional void Elliot sadly left. Cannot get enough of Alex's work since a friend turned me onto him 3 or 4 years ago. My favorite release is Trick, but I love all of them. Rocket was maybe one of my least favorite, although it did have a couple of really strong moments. House of Sugar though I have been listening to almost every day since it came out, I absolutely love every song, Hope might even be my favorite of all of Alex's songs to date. Anyway, I don't know where I'm going with this, just love you Alex, please stick around and keep putting out 10/10 records for decades to come :)
They are two of my favorite guitarist and songwriters of all time. Talented and creative in their own ways but theres no one quite like em. Maybe Elliott was more technically gifted and nuanced but Alex, oh man, he has such a unique sound and has an impressive disog despite being pretty young still
@@ssshakesssi think some of his early work from race/trick sounds like elliott but not so much his last few albums. his songs “dust” and “mis” sound very elliott to me
I was just scrolling through the comments to see if anyone else felt the same haha. Elliot Smith is my favorite songwriter and I've just been blown away since I heard Alex for the first time a few years ago how much he occupies that same emotional space. It's not at all like Alex is being derivative of Elliot, it would be hard to do that anyway I think haha, just that he touches that same emotional spot that few if anyone else really does
@@andrewrutherford9255 Very well said! Elliott will always be my favorite singer songwriter and its so refreshing to hear Alex G because of how similar it feels to elliott.
It's calling me back House of Sugar Did they bury me here? Daddy, don't let 'em put me down Daddy, don't let 'em turn me around Uh, uh I don't wanna go back Nobody's gonna push me off track, uh-huh I see what they do Good people got something to lose, uh-huh I don't wanna go back (go back) Nobody's gonna push me off track, uh-huh I don't wanna be this (be this) Good people gotta fight to exist, uh-huh Uh-huh, uh-huh Uh-huh
So in love... been listening to Alex since before he was Sandy. Always been amazing. I love how he's really found his voice finally as compared to earlier days. Probably my favourite artist out there right now. 💕
Yes! Thank you so much for doing this!!! Song came too me at a hard time in my life. Listened to it every day like 20 times for a weeks. Everything changed in these few months. And hearing this now means so much. Cheers to you Alex!
i never comment on videos but maaan this song got me through a break up last summer and now i listen back extremely fondly now that im healed. this song is so special
I really like this song and the uncanny resemblance at the beginning to a song called Plush from Stone Temple Pilots, it's the one of my favorites songs of all time. I like Alex G 😎🤘
What was the name of the song that got deleted recently? The video had a content warning. I can’t believe I don’t remember rn. It talks about trees carved with 666 and has a dog bark near the end of the song.

How does this have no comments? This is Alex G performing my favorite song of the year on a couch in the middle of the afternoon for me and only me.
Hell yes... I just found it... i heard this song the day it came out and i just cant put it down. This guy is amazing.
I don't know, this is incredible. Hope he does more songs from the album like this.
Great album my favorite song is “in my arms” and “hope”. Amazing album though so glad I found it
Blah blah blah how does this only have only *x amount* of views blah blah
I know I am pretty randomly asking but do anyone know of a good website to watch newly released movies online?
I can not stop listening to this freakin song. I don't understand the magic that it holds. Guy is an absolute genius

nobody will ever make me feel the way alex g’s ‘gretel’ does
this song has only been out for about 3 months but it’s had an impact on me like no other song has possibly ever in my life. thank you alex.
For me it has also become something like a hymn for fighting my way through life.
Me too! I'm a huge Modest Mouse fan. Neutral Milk Hotel also did the trick for me.
@Bucciarati you don't understand it you have to feel it
"I don't wanna go back
Nobody's gonna push me off track
I don't wanna be this
Good people gotta fight to exist"
Best song of 2019. Truth & beauty. Thank you Alex G.
My favorite band was modest mouse since like 2009 and I never thought anybody could take the mantle.. then I heard kicker last year. Alex g is goat
I agree I never thought I would like a band as much as modest mouse! thank you alex g
me exactly!!!! It was modest mouse, and then I discovered Alex.... and now they are tied for first place
I heard bug first and liked bug
@@jala1081 Bug is extremely Modest Mouse. Love Alex but no one's gonna dethrone Mouse for me
@@SilhouetteLifter what modest mouse songs are you referring to when you say bug is like modest mouse? I am just getting into MM.

alot of people say this but i dont really see it
@@ssshakesssi think some of his early work from race/trick sounds like elliott but not so much his last few albums. his songs “dust” and “mis” sound very elliott to me
there's no doubt this is one of the best songs that came out this year
Hope is better imo
@@andrewrutherford9255 hope and gretel are some of the best songs of the year 2020
Reminds me so much of elliott smith and I love that
not really. elliott smith had a good voice

Better than the version on the album tbh. Sounds so good stripped of all the flashy production when it’s just Alex and his guitar.
So cool to see you here hahaha

gnaw !!
Anyone know his tuning for this?
Detuned a whole step and then drop C on the bottom? Love that trudgy bass
:) my bf likes this :))))
Cross between Eric Koston and Dave Grohl
He could play a young Jason Lee
Anyone got bass tabs for this song :)
Patrician
