Dermot!: Hey you again!
Yes it is great to pick up stuff and just play! Still I really worked hard on this one....can't say that it's hard to play (although playing with my right pinky was totally new to me too), it's quite repetitive, untíl you start singing, haha! :laugh: This song absolutely shows that you need to hard wire the playing. You should be able to play it and have a conversation. So after working out what to play, play from the sheets, hum along. Then play by heart, then hum along. Then start singing one verse and so on. The process was actually quite fascinating, but it improved every day and now I'm like 'now whý was that so hard'???? Hahaha! :laugh: :laugh: Even when I saw Neil do the play through I couldn't really imagine that it would be so hard (I of course believed him), until I tried myself.......gosh :S ....anyway, like I said, I really loved the challenge, which was a new one to me. Thanks Dermot, very glad you've enjoyed it!
Michele: 
gosh.....you've absolutely blown me away too!!!!!! :woohoo: :silly: .....but how ÁWESOMEto read!!!! :cheer: And yeah, the song has quite a bit of subtleties, Pink Moon was the same for that matter, or Place to Be (I don't know any other Nick Drake songs, I was introduced to him right here at TG by Matt, Dean and now Neil), easy to miss. So I guess less than a week is quite quick, but like I explained to Dermot, I díd work hard on it. And no I didn't get up in the middle of the night, but I did play every chance I got. First thing when I got up. Last when I went to bed and mány times dúring the day, haha! :laugh: Can't wait for you rendition!!!
Anyway, thanks so VERY MUCH sweetie, I can't do your comment justice in words, just thank you!
Willem: Well that's good to 'hear' Willem, thanks!!
Tony: Hey mate, so good to hear from you!
And indeed, I hadn't heard of the song either until Neil released a lesson on it last week. I just thought it was beautiful! The challenge wasn't the key, but playing an unusual timesignature 5/4 and lyrics which aren't in sinc with the playing at all, very free form, so yeah, thát was a huge challenge, just loved it! Anyway, thanks so much, really very pleased to hear you've enjoyed it, that always means a lot!
Thanks so much guys and gal!
