Flyleaf - Fully Alive

Fully Alive - Written an Performed by Flyleaf

Fully Alive was the singer’s choice and we chose to
play it because it was really fun and enjoyable to play. We thought that if we
had fun performing the song, then the audience should have fun too and they’d
enjoy the performance more if we looked like we were enjoying it. Although it
was very difficult to start off with due to the complicated and speedy Lead
guitar section but after we got over this issue by reducing the speed of the
tempo of what I was playing so that I was capable of it and then slowly
increase the speed of what was played until I managed to comfortably play it
faster than the original version to make sure that I am more than happy playing
the song at that speed. We also had to come up with a Rhythm guitar part for
this song as the band Flyleaf only have one guitarist but we used innovative
techniques to come up with a Rhythm guitar section for the entire song that fit
in with the bass, drums and vocals.
