Chinatown (Liam Gallagher Cover)

I never thought of myself as a Liam Gallagher fan, but I like his latest album “As You Were”.

Since I play guitar and even sing a little, I’ve been learning to play some songs from the album. Several things came out of this. First, Liam sings really high! He was asked about this in an interview - specifically whether men would be able to sing along - and he just said something straightforward like, well they should just stop complaining and crank it out anyway. I’m paraphrasing from memory - he probably swore a few times.

Second - in general, it’s really hard to play and sing at the same time. The rhythm for the guitar part will often be different than the vocals. So you have to kind of split yourself into two parts, each doing its own thing.

I can just about manage “Chinatown” - here’s the first verse and chorus!
