One Day/Good Enough

By horatiuromantic on September 11, 2022 11:58 pm

One day you'll know the difference between good enough and perfect.
One day you'll understand the meaning of patience and listening.
Listening, for all around you there is something that you can learn.
You don't have to go too far.
One day you thought about leaving all this stuff behind...
One day.

Oh btw I should tell you about the tuning. It's a weird one, let's call it Drop B sus hold 2 (cause you have to hold 2 bottom strings on fret 2 for it to work) anyway it's top to bottom: D# B F# D A E and it's because I wanted to be able to play the x21000 chord as I heard it in my head, then I discovered more stuff I can do in the tuning. Lyrics improvised but connected to a post-it note I left on my desk saying "Good Enough" because I needed to work on a project but had analysis paralysis and this motivated me to just do stuff.

This day is in my past. Life is all about cutting the right corners.
Good work cutting some good ones here.

Such a nice intimate recording. love the tuning and the way you present it. well done.

Talk about using alternative tunings! It’s fascinating how changing the tuning of a guitar can unlock new songs that it was concealing. Great capture of the voice - very intimate, perfect for this song.

Thanks! It's easy to make these late at night. I feel like it's one of the things I am pretty good at, and pretty fast at. For sure tho a lot of times they don't work out big_smile but it is what it is. Best we can do is keep trying!

Thanks for the comment! It's a great feeling to discover a new song through an alternative tuning, it feels like I'm the first to tread these uncharted waters. Even though I can imagine others have stumbled across the same things, it's still a good feeling. And anyway, if it feels special to me when I make it, it will be good in the end even if it turns out it's been done many times before big_smile
