Hey Anton. Great work and a great example using the metronome of how it can really assist with keeping the timing. I thought a couple of times you were brought very quickly back to the timing as you just hinted at speeding up through use of the metronome so the value of using it to practice can really be seen in your video. A great example for us all.

I must say you look well, and your playing has really improved on this tune and generally. I really enjoyed listening to this and well done for your hard work on it.

HI Anton, very nice improvement. Not being an expert but I have work with this song for a while, I would suggest that you emphasize the pinch by hitting harder the bass string. When you pinch (maybe it is the recording) I cannot hear the bass string , only the small string. At the end of the bridge, after the 3rd iteration on the 3rd fret, you start to sing right away, it should the introduction again, then you start to sing. At the end I can see that you added a fade away. You are lifting on and off the pointer finger of the Am. Try to alternate with the pinky. A sequence like(keeping the 2 other fingers of the Am)and one measure each of: pointer-only, lift it to keep the 2 fingers of the Am, put the pinky on the 3rd fret second string, back to full Am, and so on.

Great work with the metronome

Marc

Well done Anton, you are well down the road with this tune and your voice fits well with this song. I have no doubts this will just get better and better very quickly.

This is a great example of how to practice in good style and using a metronome. Well done mate! :)
