    I have been into this band for about two weeks. And I don't remember ever being so obsessed with a band quite like this one. Rhythm section is mad tight, the dude on keys is something else, and Nai is a gem unlike any other in music right now. MUCH LOVE to this band.

    people saying her guitar is so silent dont know about the fact that guitars sometimes are supposed to barely make a sound. they just give atmosphere and are the bade to the sound

    • @KingBlonde
      @KingBlonde 6 лет назад +30

      They're looking at this from a guitar virtuoso perspective or something, not really soaking in what the music actually is and is trying to convey.

    • @Blacklionguitarist
      @Blacklionguitarist 5 лет назад +24

      Less is more, as a musician who's been moving further and further from guitar, tasteful playing speaks more volumes about the caliber of musician than endless flurries of notes

    • @daleford9606
      @daleford9606 4 года назад +4

      The guitar is capable of so much colour. Whether it’s blistering solos, ethereal textures or one note grooves... It’s all about context.

    • @gustafsone
      @gustafsone 4 года назад +1

      That's pretty much the life of a rhythm guitar player. If you're doing your job well, you blend in the background. Not every guitar part is meant to be heard prominently, however if you take away the rhythm guitar part, you'll notice it immediately.

    i wish they had added the back vocals in the album version like it's done here. i think it meshes with her voice wonderfully but also gives like a deeper feel to the song.

    • @palacoralie
      @palacoralie 8 лет назад +10

    My TV was on mute in the background to my laptop and I looked up n saw Nai Palm being interviewed and I Kinda liked her style so Up came the sound and OMFG. I can't believe I haven't heard their music before. Shame on me I'm an Aussie too.
    I can't quite put my finger on their style and that's OK because I believe REAL talent can't be pigeon holed.

    Intro]
    Follow my love, follow my love
    [Chorus]
    Drop into, drop into
    Drop into this or I’ll be swinging it solo
    Drop into this, drop into this
    Drop into this or I'll be swinging it solo
    [Verse 1]
    The lines on your palm cry out to be cloaked
    With the steady compass of my own
    My constellations burn to be strung to yours
    Almighty dot to dot
    [Chorus]
    So drop into this, so drop into this
    So drop into this or I’ll be swinging it solo
    So drop into this, honey help me swim right through this
    So drop into this or I'll be swinging it solo
    [Verse 2]
    In this heat don’t doubt, I own the hour
    White ocher shower
    Howling as it falls to find the form
    Of dust once more
    In this heat don’t doubt, I own the hour
    White ochre shower
    Howling as it falls to find the form
    Of dust once more
    In this heat don’t doubt, I own the hour
    White ochre shower
    Howling as it falls to find the form
    Of dust once more
    [Bridge]
    As time fleets, don’t tire, your hands in mine
    As time fleets, don’t tire, your hands in mine
    As time fleets, don’t tire, your hands in mine
    As time fleets, don’t tire, your hands in mine
    [Chorus]
    So drop into this, so drop into this
    So drop into this or I’ll be swinging it solo
    So drop into this, honey help me swim right through this
    So drop into this or I'll be swinging it solo
