Im in. How do you target the muted area of the fretboard like that? I think we would all like to know.,,..,.,.,?

I can't stay away from this video. It gets better every time I watch it. Never realized what a great song this is.

Wow. As a guitar player I didnt think this song could work well on a single acoustic....boy was I wrong. This is really well done.

​@ChristopherGalen love this interpretation. The feeling in your voice is amazing. On a par with the original version l think. Although two different presentations. Love that is not an exact copy.

i have watched this a million times. I love it more and more each time. It's my favorite of yours. I've subscribed to you bc of this version. Are you recording an album of covers? You should! Lots of admirers on here!!!

@@ChristopherGalen I loooove your version; I listen to it often! Thanks for putting your beautiful soul and music out into the 🌎!

There is no other acoustic cover of this song that even comes close. You have shown me what a beautiful song I have been overlooking all these years. Thank you sir.

Damn....this is amazing. Brings up so many hazy memories and hearing this song as a kid, living room windows open, weird first gen iPods, my dad playing guitar, my mom talking to someone on the phone on the other side of the house, reading books late at night....just a lot of feeling here, really gorgeous. It's also very telling that despite the age of this video and the RELATIVELY small number of views, people are consistently driven to comment about how impactful this is.

love your guitar playing style, your emotion and the completely new approach to this classic

Thank you so much for the tuning. This is the best version ever, very touching. It's one of my favorite songs.

This is one of my favourite songs of all time and I absolutely adore this version! I've also been listening to some of your other uploads and they're all great- please keep up with the music :)

Blown away dude!!! Totally impressed!! Thank you for that.

Beautiful! Just absolutely beautiful! I loved your version of this song. Thank you so much for this. It hit me just right. :-))

I've listened to this maybe 15 times since I first discovered it 2 years ago, wrote out a tab so that i could attempt to play your arrangement and feel a little of the joy you must feel when you're ripping into it. The rhythm chops on that right hand - dude! It's a tiny bit like J Bonham speaking through an acoustic guitar. So great - every time I listen.....great singing, too.

Pictures of You was mentioned, and I commented on the thread and recommended they look this up. I love seeing people's incredible cover versions of songs, and this will always be one of my all time favorites.

A real heartplay, amazing
