Jamie Cullum - Thinkin Bout You (Frank Ocean) Song Society No.7
Learnt, performed and recorded within the hour.
Notes on Thinking Bout You: Anyone else obsessed with Frank Ocean's new album Blonde? I devoured it the day it came out and have had it on repeat ever since. Frank Ocean's songwriting approach is so unconventional - structurally, melodically, lyrically. I fell so hard for Blonde that the morning we decided to record a Song Society cover I wasn't ready to cover anything from it. So I jumped back into his last record, Channel Orange and picked this one out. It is SUCH A HARD SONG TO SING and learn, especially within the hour but we jumped in and this is the result. I totally hit the wrong note every time on the chorus on the word "AHEAD!" - I went for the more conventional note naturally and assumed it was right. It makes it more normal and was a tough lesson to learn - I nearly didn't upload this, but hey - love and live with the mistakes right?!
For all those asking - I am making these videos in downtime between producing album No.8. It's looking like it is going to be all original music this time. I'll obviously be sharing it with you as soon as it's ready. In the meantime, enjoy these little vids from my home studio. As you can see we are having a blast making them!
_______________________________________
I love learning other people’s songs. I find it teaches me a whole lot about songwriting which is particularly inspirational when I’m writing a new album (which is what I am doing NOW!) This time I thought I’d film and record it for you all to check it out and start an official Song Society. The songs I will be doing will be learnt and performed live, warts and all within an hour. These are NOT definitive reconstructions, just a window in to my own education! As the process develops we could vote on what the next song will be if you like? Maybe you’ve recorded you’re own version of this song and share it with us all and let’s discuss what makes these songs great. Here are the rules (made, of course, to be broken).
The Song Society
1. Find a song you love or are fascinated by.
2. Learn and record live within the hour.
3. No previous preparation allowed.
4. Love and live with the mistakes.
