WOW!! Thanks!! :cheer: :cheer: :cheer:

You know with uploads like this, when I'm actually working on stuff, a challenge, and especially when I know that the song means something to you Neil, I feel like an excited kid showing my teacher what I've accomplished, haha :laugh: ! I'm serious, so getting a reply and such a great one too, is just......yeeeeeeeeeeh!! :woohoo:

And yeah, the speed, i sure know what you mean. I TRIED to take it down, I mean I could hear that it was a tad faster, but I just wasn't able to.....weird actually, must be the excitement indeed. But it also just felt alright and comfortable or something.

The arched bars, I don't think I've heard of it, although I do use it when playing for instance an Am-shaped barrechord. Still, fretting the sixth and first ánd second string only.....that's not so easy...! :blink: Anyway, it does have an actual name, always interesting to hear about such details. :)

However, as you can imagine Neil, really really thrilled about this review, thank you so very much!! :cheer:

Nessa,

It's so GREAT seeing this review from Neil, seeing you get the praise you so richly deserve from the Master.

I was blown away by this video. You make it look so effortless, yet I KNOW how hard it is to get everything to the point where it is automatic enough so you can then sing the lyrics. WOW! And you sing them so gorgeously too. I was glad for the reminder to watch this again. Did I mention that it's really, really beautiful?

Congratulations on a GREAT review. I found it very telling that Neil wandered into advice that didn't even apply to your performance, was interesting, but not something you needed to work on for this song. :) You're the BOMB!!!!

You're AMAZING! I can't get enough of your videos. Never stop uploading them.

That was some pretty high praise from Neil there..... ;)

Well deserved. I am always amazed by your comfort with whatever it is you are tackling. It is all I can do to strum a song with a basic pattern, and you can just sail right into a difficult song AND pull off the signing too. I certainly admire that and love to see it... B)

Can't wait to see what comes next!
