Fortunately there’s “Can’t Help Falling In Love”, the Blue Hawaii standout and #2 US hit that seems like the last gasp of Great Elvis before he started really coasting. (That, and his death torpedoed RCA’s promotional efforts for Harry Nilsson’s pretty-damned-good 1977 album Knnillssonn, which is some bullshit.) I’ve grown to recognize what Elvis actually accomplished as a singer - what bits of American hauntology could be found in his Sun recordings, the less kitschy, more alluringly human stuff hinted at in Mystery Train (both Marcus’ and Jarmusch’s), the actual visceral oomph of both his early prime and his peak comeback stuff (1969’s From Elvis In Memphis, for instance, has jams for days).īut it’s still kind of tricky navigating all this stuff when it comes to figuring out what other musicians are trying to say through Elvis’ voice. For just $5 a month you can take your playing to the next level.All these editions of Gotcha Covered, and finally, it’s time to ask: How do we deal with Elvis, really? The man died shortly before I was born, so even as a longtime music dork I mostly knew him as a legacy, a shadow, a ghost: the man whose unexpected death struck up a wave of hapless conspiracy theories, grotesque impersonations, and exploitative nostalgia that superseded his impact as an actual artist for just about everyone who wasn’t at the ideal age to find out just what he meant before the rot set in.

If you need a bit of extra help, just play video over a few times with some good headphones in (or crank up the volume).Īs I pretty much always say, once you get this down don’t feel like you have to stick to it rigidly. What you’ll actually be counting will sound like 1, 2 and 3 and, 1, 2 and 3 and… I know you’ll feel a bit stupid, but you’ll learn it faster – and there’s a rule – if you say it, you can play it. I always find it really useful to count a rhythm out loud when playing. You’ll need more of a swing feel to the rhythm than just playing it straight though. Notice that the pattern is in 3/4 timing rather than 4/4 so you’re actually counting to 3 rather than 4. Tyler uses a pretty relaxed down down up down up pattern with only a small amount of variation throughout. Other than that, there’s nothing too worrying here.Ĭan’t Help Falling In Love Strumming Pattern If it does, you can play it an alternative way by using the same shape for the Em and moving all your fingers up a string leaving the bottom (A) string open.
