Hive Open Mic 130 - The Darkness - Love Is Only A Feeling (ALL Guitar solos!)

Creativity & Freestyle!

What an awesome topic @onos-f :) this one is one I can vibe with so much! I decided to play a classic rock tune from the early 2000s - that 'new band' on the block is now a 'legendary' rock back! They are, THE DARKNESS! I'm sure you all know their song I Believe In A Thing Called Love! I would do a full vocal cover of this song too, but I'm not quite sure if I have the range haha!! What do you all think, should I give it a go? We can all have a laugh :P

The Darkness are fronted by Justin Hawkins. He is an amazing musician, and has a really cool YouTube channel too where he talks about music and bands. He is a very intelligent guy and an amazing guitarist! His brother, Dan, is the other guitarist in the band. I've been listening to The Darkness since 2003 when the hit album Permission To Land was released (wow, 2003?!) and loved it from day one. Things sure have changed since then.... a lot has in the world of music anyway!

Music is all about creativity & freestyle! Usually, I 'freestyle' a guitar solo over a rock or blues backing track , here, yes I did learn the solo, but I put my own spin on it and I wanted to stand up and rock it out!

Don't miss the final solos from 1 minute onwards! They get better as it goes! I hope you all enjoy this :)

Peace and love!
