Our Lady Peace "Denied" Performance Notes
This song is pretty basic. The opening lick is a somewhat simple
arpeggiated figure that is
a bit tough on the timing but, with a little listening to the album, it
should be playable
in no time at all. I'm not sure if the timing is as accurate as it could
be. I don't
compose music for orchestras but, I do know a bit about timing, etc. I'm
just hoping that
it's right. When playing Riff: 2, try and play it as "fluidly" as possible.
If you listen
to Mike's playing on the album, he plays it a great deal of finesse. So
keep that in mind
performing that particular riff. Riffs 3, 6A and 6B are all pretty much
similar but, with
a slight variation in each. The guitar solo is a bit tough. Mike doesn't
play a guitar
a whammy bar to my knowledge (at least not live) so get your fingers warmed
up for some
serious vibrato! Riff: 4B has major vibrato in it. I must give credit to
Mark Wiebe
(rwiebe@mindlink.bc.ca) for his transcription of "Denied". He had recently
posted his
version to OLGA as I was in the middle of mine. I used his solo for a bit
of inspiration
and borrowed a couple of notes from it for my transcription. The outro solo
is a bit buried
in the mix. Hopefully, someday I can figure that out and I'll be able to
post it. The last
lick in the song is basically in free time and it's a distorted and
contorted version of the
opening riff. Listen to the song for more details. Please feel free to
e-mail me with any
questions or comments at morgano@ici.net. Enjoy!!!

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP, representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are "hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the official OUR LADY PEACE tablature which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route. These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the NY Times Article. We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
