This is a 12 minute tutorial for a3 minute song. That means he actually spends time on each part explaining how he does it. Other tutorials for this same song are shorter than the song itself. I am definitely subscribing. Thank you!!! I love Elvis. I am naming my daughter after him…..Presley. I’m hoping to find other Elvis songs on your page
