"The Way It Is" [Bruce Hornsby] - The... (Please comment at (More) (Please comment at http://LaptopSessions.com/archives/261 -- you can find ALL the Laptop Sessions in one place!)
By Chris Moore:
Welcome to your Sunday installment of the Laptop Sessions! Coming on the heels of Number Ones week, I decided to play one of my father's favorite songs from Bruce Hornsby & the Range, "The Way It Is." Only after I recorded it did I realize that it, in fact, was a #1 single on the Billboard Hot 100 for one week in 1986! So, it appears that I'm subconsciously having a hard time leaving the #1 songs behind...
I remember making mock-radio shows on my stereo when I was in middle school, even before I owned a CD player. I used to make shows for my father to listen to while he was working in the garage, so I wanted to find music that he would enjoy. I spent countless hours with a blank cassette tape in the stereo and switching stations constantly, waiting intently to hear a disc jockey announce that "The Way It Is" would be on next. I finally got a version recorded for my show, but I got to the record button a bit slowly, so a good chunk of the intro was cut off.
I did buy him the Bruce Hornsby greatest hits CD years later, when I finally caught up with technology.
I really love this song for a couple reasons. I love how it's powered by piano, but sacrifices none of the soloing and backbeat that I value in rock music. I also love how the chorus is built around the G - Fmaj7 - C riff (which I duplicated in only a rudimentary fashion). The song was also a lot of fun to sing!
I should mention that everything that could have possibly interrupted my recording did, in fact, interrupt my recording today. My first take was lost for the incredibly raucous chirping of the birds downstairs. (Yes, that's right--I wasn't even on the same floor with them). My second take was lost due to stubbornness, as I refused to close my door and the birds continued to chirp. A later take was lost to the vibrating of my cell phone.
The funniest by far, and certainly the most ironic was when my cell phone alarm went off loudly during a good take -- it was the alarm I had set to remind me to record a Laptop Session today!
My most perfect take was lost when I forgot the second to last line of the final verse. But, this one will have to do!
Thanks for watching; I hope you'll leave a comment for me if you liked the song or have any requests for future songs.
See you next session!

By Chris Moore:
Okay, so I have good news and bad news. Good news -- MoU has finally released their highly anticipated second album, Homestead's Revenge. It's really the next step up from the more "live-in-the-studio" sound of our debut. And the songwriting includes all members. Not only do Jim, Mike, Cliff and I have our own songs, but we co-wrote three as a full band! I hope you'll listen to album and purchase it at http://Fusco-Moore.com/Store !
Now, for the bad news... While it's been a lot of fun to record these Laptop Sessions, I'm afraid I've become far too busy to keep fitting them in. So, today I bring you my final, my farewell Laptop Session...
This Wallflowers song, "One Headlight," is the first song I ever truly loved. I was in 7th grade, and whenever my dad and I were in the car and heard this song, we would crank the volume. This is saying something, because music wasn't all that important to me back then. I never did buy the album, as the Sam Goody's store in my local mall only had a copy with a cracked case. I couldn't bring myself to spend what was then a lot of money for me on a less than perfect product. Ironically, I would go on to listen to songwriter Jakob Dylan's father (yes, Bob Dylan!) and he would become my absolute favorite artist.
When I eventually did buy the Bringing Down the Horse album, I fell in love with not only this song, but the band. And I recently recorded "Sixth Avenue Heartache," another BDTH alum, for a previous Laptop Session.
All right, I can't go on with the lie -- April Fool's! This is far from my final Laptop Session, as Jim, Jeff, and I continue to record a new session-a-day for all of 2008. That's right, all 366 days! I hope you'll come back to http://LaptopSessions.com tomorrow for a new session from Jeff!
See you next session!
