I couldn't recall if anyone had already posted a video of this song, so I decided to create one tonight. I tuned my guitar down a half step, and as you will see, I probably should have tuned it done a whole step. Some of those notes get pretty high for me. Anyway, I did manage to sing and play which is a victory of sorts for me. The audio and video are a little off synch in some places, and I have no idea why. Anyway, I hope you like it. I only did three verses.

Hi Jay, You did a fantastic job on this song, first the playing sounded flawless. Really like the bridge and the the quick strumming when the canon roars in the song, good idea. Thought you sang very well and managed the high notes by not belting them out and it sounded very good.

It looked easy, always a good sign of being in control

Jay,

That was great. As always, I'm totally envious of you guys that can finger-pick so well.

That was very nice. Your picking hand looks solid as usual. Adding singing to it made it that much more impressive. Congrats on the milestone.... B)

Jay, Way to knock it out of the park. As always, your fingerpicking is spot on. Adding the vocals really upped the ante on this song and sounded good as well.
