(I wasn’t planning on adding Winter at the end but it just sort of happened, so it’s a bonus: a bit rough, but there.)

The featured video for this month is Juarez from To Venus and Back melded with You Oughta Know by Alanis Morissette:

I love Juarez because of what Tori does with it when she plays it live. The album version is a bit cold and passionless but she really brings it to life both with band (as either herself or Clyde) and solo. Her mesmerizing key change at the end of her solo piano Juarez was the main inspiration for me to play it that way. Check it out if you love Juarez as much as I do! Beware though, the video received some random hate and a 1-star rating. It’s not for the feint of heart or anyone who has trouble understanding Tori or Juarez itself.

Here are some links to covers of the full songs in the tutorial here. A few of them are a bit older and not as polished but I think they’ll help from an information standpoint. UPDATE: I freshened up most of the really old ones so they are more fun.

Silent All These Years: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9bbs26L9Vhs

Precious Things: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wbMFZDY5rAs

Pretty Good Year: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oK6INFe60c0&fmt=18 (I play the vocals and piano part simultaneously and have some fun with it.)

Pretty Good Year (Instrumental): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6mekx3M7js4 (This is performed by a friend named Justin who is a new pianist and he plays the instrumental version as written by Tori. He’s very graceful and accurate.)

This is my entry into the “This Contest Blows” contest held by Smule, the makers of the wonderful Ocarina app for the iPhone (and many other apps too).

This recording was kind of rushed and done last minute, I hope everyone enjoys it!

Thanks to Mudasar for letting me use his iPhone for recording since mine had very bad quality, I think my mic has been busted over the year.

Here’s a cover of the intro riff for Freedom is Here by Hillsong United off of their new album [a_CROSS//the_EARTH] or Tear Down These Walls. I interpreted the song by ear so it may be off from the actual song. Sheet music was not available at the time and isn’t available yet as far as I know. So if you have any questions, send me a message and subscribe!
