Can't Decide (Black Flag, Softcore Cover) - Peter Su
Add to EJ Playlist Can't Decide - one of my favorite Black Flag songs. I felt pretty stuck last night, debating between a billion songs to play this week and in life generally, and then this one popped into my head. Here's my Softcore version of "Cant' Decide," played while the sun was coming up. Most people dismiss hardcore music as mostly just energy and attitude, but I'd offer up that some of these lyrics, have real power in their simplicity and directness. Makes sense that Henry Rollins got all into poetry and spoken word post-hardcore. Can't Decide Lyrics (Black Flag) Verse 1 Sun's coming up and I can't decide To spill my emotions or keep them inside Go for a drive, go to the store I'm looking for something that can't be bought there Pre-Chorus I always wear a smile Because anything but a smile would make me have to explain And they wouldn't understand anyway I conceal my feelings so I won't have to explain What I can't explain anyway Chorus I can't decide I can't decide I can't decide anything I can't decide I can't decide I can't decide anything Verse 2 Every time I open my mouth I always wish I had kept it shut I gotta spill my guts - but I don't dare I take a look around, I know that no one else cares Pre-Chorus I always wear a smile Because anything but a smile would make me have to explain And they wouldn't understand anyway I conceal my feelings so I won't have to explain What I can't explain anyway Chorus I can't decide I can't decide I can't decide anything I can't decide I can't decide I can't decide anything Solo Chorus I can't decide I can't decide I can't decide anything I can't decide I can't decide I can't decide anything |
Free Bird (Lynyrd Skynyrd Cover) - Peter Su
Add to EJ Playlist An ode to a very special... ...burrito. I didn't go to UCSB, but ever since Mark introduced me to Freebirds, every time I'm close to Isla Vista I have to make a mini-pilgrimage and get a Quesarrito (yup, a burrito, in a quesadilla, that's right!). Sunday after Durango, driving down the PCH, I thought it'd be fun to shoot this video + play a stripped-down version of Lynyrd Skynrd's classic - Free Bird. Free Bird Lyrics (Allen, Collins, Ronnie, Van Zant) Verse 1 If I leave here tomorrow Would you still remember me? For I must be traveling on, now, 'Cause there's too many places I've got to see. But, if I stayed here with you, girl, Things just couldn't be the same. 'Cause I'm as free as a bird now, And this bird you can not change. Chorus Oh... oh... oh... oh... oh... And the bird you cannot change. And this bird you cannot change. Lord knows I can't change. Verse 2 Bye, bye, baby it's been a sweet love. Yea, yea Though this feeling I can't change. But please don't take it so badly, 'Cause the lord knows I'm to blame. But, if I stayed here with you girl, Things just couldn't be the same. Cause I'm as free as a bird now, And this bird you can not change. Chorus Oh... oh... oh... oh... oh... And this bird you cannot change. And this bird you cannot change. Lord knows, I can't change. Lord help me, I can't change. Lord I can't change, Won't you fly high free bird yea. |

Make You Feel My Love (Bob Dylan Cover) - Peter Su
Add to EJ Playlist Make You Feel My Love (Bob Dylan Cover). Off "Time Out of Mind". Adele's got a great version too. Rooftop singing, downtown LA in the background - I think I found a new video spot! I've studied this song and played it probably like 100x , and I'm realizing that it wasn't until late in Bob Dylan's career, after writing hundreds of songs was he able to craft this gem. Cool little AABABA structure, with a nice descending chord progression and lyrics that develop throughout 4 verses. My favorite part though, is the first bridge - love those lyrics. "I've known it from the moment that we met, no doubt in my mind where you belong." MP3: http://soundclo ud.com/petersum usic/make-you-f eel-my-love-bob http://www.twit ter.com/petersu music Make You Feel My Love (Bob Dylan) LYRICS When the rain is blowin' in your face And the whole world is on your case I could offer you a warm embrace To make you feel my love. When the evening shadows and the stars appear And there is no one there to dry your tears I could hold you for a million years To make you feel my love. I know you haven't made your mind up yet But I would never do you wrong I've known it from the moment that we met No doubt in my mind where you belong. I'd go hungry, I'd go black and blue I'd go crawlin' down the avenue No, there's nothin' that I wouldn't do To make you feel my love. The storms are raging on the rollin' sea And on the highway of regrets The winds of change are blowing wild and free You ain't seen nothin' like me yet. I could make you happy, make your dreams come true There's nothing that I would not do Go to the ends of the Earth for you To make you feel my love. |

Rivers and Roads (The Head and the Heart Cover) - Peter Su
Add to EJ Playlist Rivers and Roads, by the Head and the Heart. Just 3 chords and the truth man. Hearing them play this song and "Sounds Like Hallelujah" at Coachella last year was one of the musical highlights of the year for me really. We've been talking about covering this song for a while now - love the harmonies. Funny story with how I discovered this song. I was people-watching on Spotify one day, and saw some girl listening to this song by "The Head and the Heart." Curiosity got the better of me, and I clicked- through to their album. The first song I clicked on was "Rivers and Roads" - I was like "wow, if all of their songs are like this, this band is amazing." And lo and behold, they were.

California (Delta Spirit Cover) - Peter Su (Weekly Noodle #9)
Add to EJ Playlist California (Delta Spirit Cover). Weekly Noodle #9. Freaking great song. I heard this song recently and it kinda blew me away. I think a lot of people can relate to the lyrics in some way or another, and the "oohs" in the chorus just kill me. So Delta Spirit started out in San Diego and then relocated to Long Beach, and a few months ago moved to Brooklyn. I'm still trying to figure out whether they wrote it when they were in NY or in CA - my guess is NY - or maybe they moved to NY for that reason hahah! But it doesn't really matter, you can enjoy this song from anywhere in the world.

Blue (Live Version) - Peter Su @ Kulak's Woodshed in North Hollywood
Add to EJ Playlist Hello hello, here's a Peter Su live clip and original song for y'all. I'm singing "Blue" at Kulak's in North Hollywood, one of my favorite open mics from my trip back in June to check out the LA singer/songwrit er scene. *************** *************** *************** *************** *************** * Facebook Gamin': http://www.face book.com/peters umusic Tweet tweet: http://www.twit ter.com/petersu music I'm tumblin' for ya: http://www.pete rsu.tumblr.com *************** *************** *************** *************** *************** * Big long spiel (for the adventurous :) I haven't posted a video in months as I deliberately stopped playing out and posting youtube videos to focus on writing songs and just get better at songwriting - I'll probably do a VLOG or blog post on this sometime. So I'm reminiscing a bit now on that fateful trip to LA back in June. (Note to self: I should post this stuff more real-time, starting now). On "Blue" - it's a little jazzy chord progression I learned 1st year in college on my Putnam balcony back in Berkeley (thanks Eric!), that I've carried around and tried to make into a song since. It's probably actually the 2nd song with words that I ever attempted to write. I think I came up with the Blue "chorus" at a Deltasig retreat jamming with Arjun one time, and the first verse I wrote down in a cab in Beijing summer 2009 on my way to Tun bar, for my first openmic ever. I think after a few Tsing Daos, I scribbled down the second verse before my turn came. Well, it's still not done (I'm working on it!) - but this version is the version I usually play live these days. On Kulak's - I actually heard about this place when I was at the Bazaar cafe in SF, chatting with Stevie Gurr - a very friendly and knowledgeable folk musician here in SF who had done some time in LA. He told me Kulak's was one of the best openmics in LA for singer/songwrit ers. His words were ringing in my head that whole week in LA, so I ended up extending my trip so I could drive up to NoHo and check it out that Monday. The place is really awesome - as awesome as you would imagine a live music venue to be that's run by a guy (Paul Kulak) that keeps it afloat purely through volunteers and donations - they don't serve drinks at Kulak's, just live music xp. Great chill eccentric/creat ive vibe, very cool and supportive crew of musicians, and they film and record everything for you. If you want a DVD, it's $20 - pretty sweet deal. The coolest thing was the camera and sound was all run by volunteers, i.e. every few people someone from behind a camera would go up and play haha. So cool. Unfortunately, at the end of the night my name wasn't drawn, BUT, someone gave up their spot after they heard I had come all the way from SF (thanks again man!). For anybody in socal into singer/songwrit er type music, you should definitely check out Kulak's Monday night openmic. www.kulakswoods hed.com *************** *************** *************** ************* Check out my other videos!

Blue (Bedroom Version) - Peter Su (work in progress)
Add to EJ Playlist Hey y'all - here's a song I've been working on for a loooong time (see my live performance of it at Kulak's all the way back in June). It's a wip. I did a quick take back in May (back when I had long hair ha) but am finally takin' it off private. Still chippin' away at it. It'll be interesting to see how it changes, but here it is, as it is. |
Belle (Jack Johnson Cover) - Peter Su (Weekly Noodle #7)
Add to EJ Playlist Belle by Jack Johnson epitomizes everything I like about his songs - sincere, simple, and laid-back. In this cover I changed the lyrics to what you might say if you ever find yourself meeting "Belle" in Asia =p Jack has said it basically means, "Hey sexy, I don't speak French". If you do some google kung fu, you'll find that "Belle" is: "Another joke. My wife speaks a little bit of French. We went traveling around Europe together years ago. It's probably the oldest song I have. I kind of learned these bossa nova chords. And I was joking with her, basically saying, 'Hey beautiful' in a lot of different languages and then said, 'Je ne comprend pas francais,' which is 'I don't understand' in French, 'So you'll have to speak to me some other way.' I toyed around with that in the studio and ended up liking it and put it on the record." What a g! Lyrics - adapted for Asian countries: Kauai-ne (Cute in Japanese) Anyeung-haseo (Hi in Korean) Ang ganda mo talaga (You're really so beautiful, in Tagalog) But Belle Wo bu ming bai, ni de ko yu (I don't understand your language, in Mandarin) So you'll have to speak to me Some other way Original Lyrics + Translation: Oi Lienda (Hello beautiful - Portuguese) Bella Che Fa? (Beautiful, what's happening - Italian) Bonita, Bonita que tal? (Beautiful, beautiful, what's up - Spanish) But Belle, je ne comprends pas Francias (I don't understand French - French) So you'll have to speak to me Some other way *Special thanks to Aaron for the Harmonium! *************** *************** *************** ************* Ping me!

Domino Effect (Acoustic Ozma Cover) - Peter Su (Weekly Noodle #8)
Add to EJ Playlist Here's a cover of Ozma's classical guitar arrangement of Domino Effect, the ending of Battlescars. It's one of my favorite parts from "Rock and Roll Part Three", my favorite Weezer album from 2001 (=p). 8th installment of my Weekly Noodle, hope ya like it. Funny story - one day while walking back from class at Berkeley, I heard this really sick pop-punk sound coming from near the student union building. I went to check it out, and it was this band called "Yes Dear". I was pretty stoked - crunchy guitars, catchy hooks, soaring vocal harmonies - what a great sound! I stayed around to talk to the guitarists, Ryan and Jose, they were cool guys. Haha, it wasn't until I got home and looked up their music that I found out they were from Ozma! Such an underrated band. Long live nerd rawk @_@ http://www.face book.com/peters umusic http://www.twit ter.com/petersu music |
We Are Young (Fun. feat. Janelle Monae Acoustic Cover) - Peter Su (Weekly Noodle #6)
Add to EJ Playlist "We Are Young" is a HUGE song. I love the lyrics and the hook is incredibly catchy. Yeah, so I (and a mystery guest) decided to do this one for fun. =p. Acoustic style with a healthy dose of harmonies. Weekly Noodle #6. Hope ya like it. I studied the song this week, very simple chords and rhythm - but the way the song lyrics/arrangem ent/melody/voca l range/tempo and (especially) production build and release tension is pretty intricate. I've been listening to Fun.'s album "Some Nights". They're not shy about their Queen influence, and I don't mind one bit. It's nice to hear some good rock on the radio for a change! *************** *************** *************** ************* If you like what you heard, please subscribe: http://www.yout ube.com/subscri ption_center?ad d_user=petersum usic *************** *************** *************** ************* Ping me!

She Was Mine (Jesse Barrera & AJ Rafael Cover) - Peter Su & Brian Wong (Weekly Noodle #5)
Add to EJ Playlist "She Was Mine" is near and dear to both me and my cousin Brian Wong. Written by Jesse Barrera and AJ Rafael, it's the first song I remember seeing on youtube where I realized youtubers could really write songs (beyond just doing good covers). It's funny because after I first heard it (from the Albert Posis and Mark Mejia cover, lolwut?), I learned it immediately and it's been a favorite of mine to play ever since. About 2 years ago, I was over at my cousins' house one day, and they were talking about how Brian couldn't stop playing this one song in his room. Turns out, it was a song called "She Was Mine". We attempted to cover this She Was Mine back then, but kept messing up at the very end. Today, we decided to finish it. Here's our tribute to great songwriting on youtube. *************** *************** *************** ************* If you'd like to hear more, click to help us get more subs than quiznos: http://www.yout ube.com/subscri ption_center?ad d_user=petersum usic Check out Brian's channel for more acoustic goodness: http://www.yout ube.com/brianwo ngsf Subscribe to Brian: http://www.yout ube.com/subscri ption_center?ad d_user=brianwon gsf *************** *************** *************** ************* Ping me!

Where The Ladies At? - Peter Su Original (Weekly Noodle #4)
Add to EJ Playlist Alrighty then! Weekly Noodle #4 is done. I'm behind - I will catch-up. This is a dance-y electronica beat I made, with rap lyrics I wrote about everybody's favorite clubbing question - Where The Ladies At? For this week's sonic experiment, I studied songs by FarEast Movement (o my dirtybass) - mostly for their structure, rhythms, and sounds - and tried to capture their fun party vibe. The way they build and release tension through lyrics, rhythm, adlibs, and production - is a LOT more complicated than I expected. This was another vid where after writing the song, playing and mixing everything got kinda stressful - but I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. I'm also still experimenting with doing my drawings too in lieu of all live action. Hope ya like it! *************** *************** *************** ************* Ping me!
