Incubus se forma en un garaje de Calabasas, California en Enero de 1991. Empezaron tocando en pequeños clubes y fiestas, para saltar a telonear a todo un elenco de bandas consagradas como Primus
En el año 1990 José Pasillas (Percusión) conoce a Mike Einzinger (Guitarrista) quien pasaba la mayor parte de su tiempo tocando guitarra y a Alex Katunick (Bajo) quien había participado en una banda de Jazz de la cual lo expulsan por no saber leer partituras.
¡Cuatro años de duro trabajo!Este mes de mayo cumplimos cuatro años al aire. Seguimos trabajando en la difusión de este maravilloso instrumento, ¡gracias por participar en nuestra historia!
This is a really cool acoustic version of the song i found on the internet, Brandon calls it the "lounge" version. Sorry but I don't know the names of some of these chords.
[Verse 1] Dmaj7(2) C#maj7Cmaj7A6 Aaug5 A Certain Shade of Green, tell me is that what you need? Dmaj7(2) C#maj7Cmaj7 All signs around say move ahead, could someone please explain to me A6 Aaug5 your ever present lack of speed Dmaj7(2) C#maj7 Are your muscles bound by ropes? Cmaj7A6 Aaug5 Or do crutches cloud your day? Dmaj7(2) C#maj7 My sources say the road is clear. Cmaj7A6 Aaug5 And street signs point the way.
[Chorus] Dmaj7D#maj7Dmaj7 Are you gonna wait around till 2012 A.D. Bmin7 A#maj7 What are you waiting for, a certain shade of green? Dmaj7D#maj7Dmaj7 I think I grew a gray watching you procrastinate Bmin7 A#maj7 What are you waiting for, a certain shade of green?
[Verse 2] Would a written invitation Signed, Choose now or lose it all Sedate your hesitation? Or inflame and make you stall?
You've been raised in limitation But that glove never fit quite right The time has passed for hand-me-downs Choose anew, please evolve Take flight
[Chorus] Dmaj7D#maj7Dmaj7 Are you gonna wait around till 2012 A.D. Bmin7 A#maj7 What are you waiting for, a certain shade of green? Dmaj7D#maj7Dmaj7 I think I grew a gray watching you procrastinate Bmin7 A#maj7 What are you waiting for, a certain shade of green?
Anyone wanting to learn this should listen to the song to figure out the jazzy rythm and all the little chord variations mike plays. and I have no idea how to play the solo.
