Thanks man :) I think I'm gonna slowly introduce more and more Jazz harmony where appropriate, because that's the kinda stuff I'm into and studying more now :)

such perfection.....👏👏👏

Wow! I really like "jazzy" sound in the chorus! It's very unique.

great job on this one. Very creative with the different chord voices and substitutions.

absolutely perfect

Andrew plays it a little lower. And a little more in his own style. I really like this one for its closeness to the original

Fabulous!!

i love your arrangement bro good job!!!

Whoa! Some of those harmonies are quite embellished! Wasn't expecting that! Love it, dude!

This is amazing I can sing every word by listening to the rhythm it's that accurate

fave!! 🔥

Love it

i am in love with ur videos!

it's so amazing to listen before sleeping. thinking everything i do in one day

Just heard this at a salon yesterday while getting a pedicure. Your music is very soothing! Keep up the good work.

Wow! amazing!

Most professionalist cover. You don't miss even milliseconds of the beat! Good job , keep up.

Great arrangement, very different from a few other styles with quite a laid back/jazz feel to it & and man all I have to say is good job it sounds beautiful!

The most satisfying thing is U always play very smoothly ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😌😌😌😌🎶🎸🎸🎸

This is so fluid and flawless,, I love the simplicity with which you played this. Awesome arrangement James (Y). I would love to watch you play "lean on" by MajorLazor.

Beautiful!

Wow IMO this is the best cover so far.

finally. Waited so long for u to cover this

I never get tired listen to you play you always inspire me to keep practicing and that's saying something. Thanks for put up this video I know you have very limited time but is there anyway you can upload the tabs for Far away on your website really want to learn that piece I have all your other tabs but I can't get that song out of my head and you know how that is being a musician yourself LOL

Amazing !

Its just great

Your covers are my favorite thing to study to! So excited you dropped this one right before finals week! :)

The club isn't the best place to find a lover So the bar is where I go Me and my friends at the table doing shots Drinking faster and then we talk slow Come over and start up a conversation with just me And trust me I'll give it a chance now Take my hand, stop Put Van The Man on the jukebox And then we start to dance And now I'm singing like Girl, you know I want your love Your love was handmade for somebody like me Come on now, follow my lead I may be crazy, don't mind me Say, boy, let's not talk too much Grab on my waist and put that body on me Come on now, follow my lead Come, come on now, follow my lead I'm in love with the shape of you We push and pull like a magnet do Although my heart is falling too I'm in love with your body And last night you were in my room And now my bedsheets smell like you Every day discovering something brand new I'm in love with your body Oh I oh I oh I oh I I'm in love with your body Oh I oh I oh I oh I I'm in love with your body Oh I oh I oh I oh I I'm in love with your body Every day discovering something brand new I'm in love with the shape of you One week in we let the story begin We're going out on our first date You and me are thrifty So go all you can eat Fill up your bag and I fill up a plate We talk for hours and hours about the sweet and the sour And how your family is doing okay Leave and get in a taxi, then kiss in the backseat Tell the driver make the radio play And I'm singing like Girl, you know I want your love Your love was handmade for somebody like me Come on now, follow my lead I may be crazy, don't mind me Say, boy, let's not talk too much Grab on my waist and put that body on me Come on now, follow my lead Come, come on now, follow my lead I'm in love with the shape of you We push and pull like a magnet do Although my heart is falling too I'm in love with your body And last night you were in my room And now my bedsheets smell like you Every day discovering something brand new I'm in love with your body Oh I oh I oh I oh I I'm in love with your body Oh I oh I oh I oh I I'm in love with your body Oh I oh I oh I oh I I'm in love with your body Every day discovering something brand new I'm in love with the shape of you Come on, be my baby, come on Come on, be my baby, come on Come on, be my baby, come on

Dude, You are so awesome! :)

Its Very Good

I just want to say I love your choice of chords; some of them are just perfectly dissonant. Any tips on how you choose these chords or where I can learn?

You're so good! I dislike this song, but am listening only because of the way you play it! Keep it up!

Glad to have you back!

Great cover! I really like the subtle jazz. A quick question: How do you start making an arrangement? Do you know lots of music theory?

@JamesBartholomewMusic

James Bartholomew Thanks for the quick reply! How you arrange a new song. But the first question would also be quite interesting.

@JamesBartholomewMusic

Well I would say a while back I'd first work out the chords, but focusing on voice leading with respect to melody and work from there, but at this point honestly it just kinda blurs together and I kinda naturally do everything at once section by section. I tend to then go back through and refine things, like in this one I went back and changed the harmony in the choruses and things. I started arranging after working out guitar based songs by ear like old Newton Faulkner stuff, as all the tabs on the internet were wrong
