Neil:

I discovered you in May and on my birthday in June I joined TotallyGuitars. The only regret is that I don't have enough time to sit in front of my computer and learn.

I'm looking forward to Friday night (9:00 PM me, 6:00 PM you). I have a suggestion for a song. My daughter is getting married a week from this Saturday and I discovered a song through my son who is going to sing it at her wedding. The name of the group is Bent Folds Five and the song is called The Luckiest. Its played on a piano but I can picture it being played on a guitar just as nicely. Listening to your playing I know you would be the guy to come up with a beautiful arrangement. Let me know what you think.

Please add a YouTube link for the song if possible. It saves Neil (and others) time in looking it up.

Also, two weeks is a really short time frame for Neil to find a song, learn it, and make a lesson out of it in time for you to learn it. For myself, when I request a song, I'm looking at 2 to 6 months before I expect to see it as a lesson. Neil might push it up sooner, but then he probably won't.

Also, with the YouTube link, he can listen to it and give you a fast rundown on it. Something like;
Its in this key, this kind of strumming, tuned like that.
This would help you get a headstart on it.
