Hi Everyone,

Today's Target and Pay Per Lesson release is now live.

Thinking Out Loud is a song by the immensely popular English singer-songwriter Ed Sheeran and is the third official single of his latest album X (Multiply). It’s a romantic ballad, which he describes as a ‘walking down the aisle-song’.

The lesson is primarily based on how Ed performs this song live on stage by himself. As always, keep in mind that his playing in general is very random, Thinking Out Loud is no exception to that.

The song features an easy progression in the key of D, syncopated chord changes, a very cool groove, plucking and strumming for the right hand, muting techniques for both hands and a few embellishments.

Enjoy this level 4 lesson!

Hey TGNessa,

Beeeeeauuutiful song! I have to agree that it's veeery romantic and the dancing video ... woo wee its damn sexy too


i haven't gotten to the lesson parts yet, but your playthrough is VERY COOL.

Yep, you guessed it, I'm adding it to the list. I love all the percussive stuff in there and the quick embellishments sound great too. It's very cool.

Another cool song.

Thanks Ness.

I agree with everything you say Shel, it's a beeeeeeauuutiful, veeeeery romantic song, with a damn sexy video too, whaha!! And the groove is soooooo cool, so awesome combination I'd say!

Yeah, that list, I realize that it's getting longer and longer, I guess we all suffer from that.... :blink:

Oh well.....never a boring moment in my life though, there is always sómething to get into.

Many thanks for dropping by Shel, always love to read you!

Thanks again!
