Tunings are wonderfully inspiring, and it helps you to write music. If I'm stuck, you know, I change the tuning.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I've got 50 different tunings in the guitar.
I have my faults, but changing my tune is not one of them.
I have to be in tune. All the time. I have to be in tune with my husband, where he is, how he's feeling. I have to be in tune with where my family is.
A tune has to resonate with whatever is happening around it.
Alas! You complain that your soul is out of tune. Then ask the Master to tune the heart-strings.
I enjoy having some boundaries to work within. That's why I generally don't like alternate tunings and stuff like that. I like the boundaries of regular tunings.
Keep in mind, you can use Auto-Tune and you can know how to work it perfectly, but you still have to know how to write a good song.
I don't get my inspiration from a specific source. It's more like if you listen to a good tune, it gives me inspiration to write a better tune.
When I started to write a tune, I just wrote the nearest at hand, which was what was happening in my own life.
I think that open tunings are a trap really because it's really hard not to sound like an open tuning when your using one and that gets old as well as what you learn in one open tuning is going to stay there.
