I knew what this was going to be before I clicked on the link. Sounds wonderful. I live the understated melody and the control In the playing.

Yep, been playing that one this week. Love these sorts of songs with a handful of simple parts that add up satisfyingly. And plenty of time and space for me to play them semi-competently...

The Jazzmaster trem feels real good for this one too.

Rewatched it. Great vocal performance. Rabea's tone and playing are fucking hot. But where's the riff? Where's the sparkling clean tone?
