| Song |
"Show Me How to Live" is the third single by American rock band Audioslave from their debut album, Audioslave released in 2003.
"Show Me How To Live" has a relatively high tempo. The song contains heavy guitar/drum riffs and with a qawwali-esque, Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan-like solo broken up with a phasing, fluttering effect by Tom Morello, acheived by flicking his pickup toggle switch from on to off repeatedly in a counter-rhythm to the steady tremelo picked high E he is playing. At the same time he uses his whammy pedal set to produce a note a fifth higher in pitch. (B) [1] Singer Chris Cornell also uses an interesting technique near the end of the song, when he changes pitch multiple times to produce an unusual effect, he achieves this by simply hitting his throat with the side of his hand.[2]
