Winner's Blues -getting the record straight
 

Ok I have not heard one postive thing about the song 'Winner's Blues', but I absolutely love it. I don't get it! It's soooo good! Really cool and 90's and a great way to start of an album. SY hasn't really done anything like it.

Does anyone else like this song? Or really hate it(explain)?

Yeah I really like it!

i like it a lot. along with the rest of the album.

...and it's really easy to play, too.

Really? How do you play it?

Tuning is pretty much yr average Open G tuning but 3 tones down (EEBEG#B), basically an open E.

For the tab itself, behold the greatness of Mustang.

I love it. It got me on the first listen.

Cool!

I like it.

Yeah real cool song...I love it.

Awesome track.

getting the record straight
...shouldn't it be "'setting' the record straight"?

I like the singing. When he says "wait a long, long time" the "wait" seems to be out of his range, but he sings it nicely.

However, I don't like Bone.

Burn out your eyes
Burn out surprise

as in Sophocles' King Oedipus



I had no idea that the ancient Greeks wore slacks like that^hehe

i remember looking at the back of this cd before buying it and this track instantly appealed to me. then i sampled the song in the store. thought it sounded great

I got quoted. Cool.

Winners Blues is a nice one to play, though I never tried it on an acoustic. I think it's a wonderful opening track, and the way it ends is great: fading whistles, guitar plugs in.

It's a good song along with a lot of the others off of Jet. But for some reason they never sit well together as an album...

setting the record straight.....yeah you're right I feel stupid

I've always loved it....and the album.
