yeah, they did that trick a lot. it's a good one to create some harmonic tension (and it was fun watching Albert Hammond Jr strumming his guitar like a maniac on these parts).

The whole thing is really just a G-chord, though, you're right it's true, with Julian traveling from D to H to G.

love them H chords

Oh, right, it's different in England and US. B, not H.

I've been laughing my tits off at the idea of a riff without any rhythm in it for the last half an hour... I assume Frederik drinks water without the h2o in it, too...

Well, I'd wish you'd laugh a while longer, but it was nice to have a cordial enriching discussion while you weren't here.

It was fun learning Last Night with my band and realizing that I just play one chord during the intro and chorus. The parts of that song sound very weird individually

yeah the "one chord" thing is everywhere on their first lp (I don't remember for the following ones).like on "hard to explain" alone they use it during the pre-chorus AND the chorus !

used to hate Last Nite when it was ubiquitous, now I love it and would probably be my vote

if only for the chorus
it's a fucking incredible song
honestly embarrassed to say I finally heard the album for the first time a couple of weeks ago. its good
