he doesn't slap f,ffc... on the video, he is slapping at the most inopportune times.. he is just being goofy on the video.. half the time he isn't even playing the right notes... or fretting them anyway.. I saw them live on MTv and the only time he slapped was on the chorus... the song it self it relatively easy.. but its a cool catchy song... I don't know if it is up to Micheal Jackson status.. but then again what is

the riff he slaps goes
F,F F C, F F C, F F G G F | um... if you think thats the chorus, hate to break it to you... but thats not right...
The chorus (which is slaped live, and not so sure on the album, but i'm pretty sure) goes
F E F F(octive) then repeat that 3x, then hit a g,
s s h p (S=slap, H=hammeron p= pop)
then go back to that F E FF riff. The interlude in the chorus though (A-G-F-E-F-A) progression is fingersyle though. And the verse riff, or the main riff, is fingerstlye.
(all of this information gathered while being 10 ft. away at a concert.)
For those of you interested, he slaped the verse riff to "movie", and fingerstlye for every other part, while preforming it live.

its got a good groove, and that counts for a lot...

When someone alleged that the easter bunny was not responsible for the chocolate eggs in my house I cried for a week. And I once bet my house on the fact that the tooth fairy existed. How else can you explain the money under my pillow? Alien Ant Farm are an integral part of this "little world", and indeed it would be destroyed if you were talking about them. |

Also, my father is a tall man. He shares his time between a box in our garden and a milk float he stole from the milkman last week.

I've seen the video a few times and while he may be a really nice person, he just irritates me to watch...But like a bad car accident, you just have to keep looking! |
