I loved this video when you uploaded it.
Your videos, guitar and singing always shine.
I love this song and when I have a go will take advantage of
the tips Neil put into his review.
Thanks for Sharing

Neil - Thanks SO much for the review. I'll definitely be applying that advice. The barre chord transition trick will especially come in handy and I'm sure it will make them easier to do and sound cool too.
Thanks for all your sweet and encouraging words as well. They all mean a lot to me coming from you.
Tony, Dermot - thanks.

Shel,
This is terrific input, geared specifically to address your issue with getting to those barre chords quickly. I love the advice about hitting the bass note and not pinching the entire chord. Perfect.
You deserve all the enthusiastic praise you got, Shel.

Great review of a really nice upload! Lots of good advice from Neil. I like the idea of playing things way too fast, even when it's sloppy, to really make the chord progression automatic.
Nice job, Shel!!

Dennis, Sizi and Willem,
Thanks for being so supportive again. It's a great song and a lot of fun to learn.
I absolutely agree that Neil's advice is really useful. I'm sort of kicking myself that I didn't try the bass note only approach. It seems so obvious now, but I guess that's because it makes so much sense. Simplify, simplify.
Thanks again.
M.

Thanks Nessa. that's all soooooooooooo nice to hear. Thanks you're a sweetie.
Neil's advice is helping already.
I listened to it again this morning, my video, and it sounded soooooo slow. At the time I was pushing my ability to play it without mucking it up. But, I now hope to push through to the real speed using both bits of advice.
