Just to see what is actually necessary.

What are you listening to?

I'm listening to the feeling.
41
How do you listen to a feeling?
42
Well, my body's moving.

I feel that melody awaken something in me.
44

47
My aim is not to have my presence felt.
48
Unless it's necessary, unless it's helpful.

54
And when my eyes are closed, I feel like I'm there with the music.
55

56
Back in 1993, a few stray guitar chords on a Tom Petty demo tape caught his attention.
57
Tom sent me demos of about five new songs, and none of them really struck me, honestly.
58
None of them spoke to me, but that guitar riff that opens a song was something that was played between two of the songs, just like a warmup.
59
I drove to Tom's house and I played it for him.
60
I said, listen to this piece.

Write this one.

And that turned into Last Dance with Mary Jane.

Last Dance with Mary Jane, one more time to kill the fame.

That's going to be hard, though, when you come back saying, I like the thing that happened accidentally in between two of these songs.

That's a tough sell sometimes, isn't it?
67
I'm not trying to sell it.
68
I'm just sharing what I'm feeling.
69
You know, like if they don't want to do it, it's fine.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?

Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
