Mother - tell your children how to count my notes
Mother by Danzig sounds simple enough, but as soon as I started playing along with the song, I notice that I mess up the timing after a while. Mainly cause the song just a syncopated rhythm and it speeds up quite a bit as it goes along. The solution was to rewrite the rhythm in my head. I added a phantom note on the beat before the syncopated notes. This made it easier to sync my foot tapping with the song and I'm able to keep up with the live version on Demon Thrall minus the solo.
