    Nothing But Flowers - David Byrne

    Thought this one worked well as a Samba, at 230/qtr note. Am I the 1st to post a Talking Heads song on the forum? Think so, c'mon everybody, let's see some more!

    Nothing But Flowers - David Byrne

    Just re-named the sections (now that I know the "V" symbol in the editor means "Verse", not the Roman numeral 5...doh!). Also, thought I'd explain that the rather random looking series of bass notes on the G chords in the verse (& switching the Dm to Dm7 right after that) are to try to get the player to play something more realistic sounding - the G chord in that spot really sounds to me on the recording as a G/B, but the player just stayed on a B bass note for 4 measures, didn't sound as good to me as the more natural alternating root-5th bass note movement that the player uses w/ the Samba style. So it was an attempt to make those 4 bars more interesting/realistic.
