Good job suzi. A great tune but looks tricky in places but you managed to play it well.
I also had forgotten how much I really like this tune, thanks for reminding me. :)

Suzi,
Really well done. I thought your picking was very clean and clear. I recognized the song right away although I never knew that was the name of it. Your guitar sounds great, but even nice guitars only sound great if you play them great!
Way to go.
Craig

MarkM- I’m really glad you liked the video. Regarding my Martin- yes, I like it a lot! I think I’ve played it in a couple of other videos, though I’m not sure which. I’ve had it for about 6 months now. The body is elongated down to the 12th fret, so it has a lot of sound. It’s a great fingerstyle guitar. It’s more mellow and somber than my cheery Taylor. But both are great guitars. They're like yin and yang :)

Willem- thanks for watching! You should have a go at this song again. It’s worth it!

Scott- thank you! I love it as a solo piece, too.

Tom- It is a tricky song (or at least for my skill-level it is). When I first looked at the tab I thought I’d have it down in a few days. Fast forward at least a month later, and it’s still not perfect! Anyway, thank you, and I’m glad you enjoyed it.

Rick- thank you! Really glad you enjoyed.

Buddy- Thanks for your kind words! It was a joy to work on.

Mark- I understand the never-ending “to-do” list very well! :) Thanks!

Suzi

Craig- Oops, you snuck in while I was replying :) Thanks so much for your kind comment. I haven't tackled a tricky fingerpicking piece in a while, so it was nice to get back to that. I love this song and I was glad to learn it, even if it's not perfect quite yet.

Suzi Beautifully played, nice guitar also. This is one of my favourite tunes and I have the same tab, I first heard this on You Tube by Sungha Jung playing Uli's version. It is a deceptive piece more to it than meets the eye.

Lovely, as always. Well done. It does look a bit tricky. A nice way to start my Thanksgiving weekend>

Suzi,

While I am not familiar with this song I think it was very nicely played and I loved the dynamics of the piece. Lovely performance!

Scott
