I only watch these videos to hear Justin sing chords.. its the highlight..and i learn too

@vortexvideo1 10 лет назад

So clear and easy to follow. Love the way you sing the names of the chords to the melody. That makes it so easy to learn. You're an incredible teacher... Can't thank you enough.

@ivanppillay914 3 года назад

Justin masterclass! Take a bow my good man.

@mattberg6692 8 лет назад

my mother used to sing this to me when I was a tiny human and every tutorial has frustrated me. this however, is a breeze. Thank you!

@tedklumb4952 19 дней назад

Most excellent lesson. Like how you call out the chords. Very nice video capture.

Best teacher on the internet big fan man!

@shanemarcotte2062 7 лет назад

My dad taught me guitar much the same way you do it, singing the chords as you play and i play along! Thanks~!

@STORYTASTIC 12 лет назад

96 percent spot on..and thats amazing considering the genius James...thank u for this Justin

@munsterfloyd Год назад

Brilliant. I used to play this ages ago and over the years, due as much to not playing enough as anything else, it fell by the wayside. Thanks for reminding me. Great playing.

@dougsmith8430 3 года назад

Justin… You are such a great Teacher and Guitarist… I have learned so much from you! THANK YOU!

@tvphilo 13 лет назад

Brilliantly done mate! I love the singing chords touch. Truly one of the best lessons I have seen. I appreciate you tubing it for us.

@johnalbanese2750 Год назад

Huge fan of JT and have never bothered trying to learn him on guitar because there is so much nuance to what he does that I felt like I could never do it justice. But your lessons for this one, and Fire and Rain, are so completely detailed and on the money that I have finally been able to nail these two songs to my satisfaction. Thanks so much for your research on this one and for sharing your work. You have become my "go to" lesson guy over the past year! Thanks!

@neilgruman1850 3 года назад

BRILLIANT lesson! Thank you very much Justin.

@nckwlch 5 лет назад

Last comment 3 years ago! Timeless song and great lesson... and performance (singing is eerily like JT hisself!)

@MidouBanChan 13 лет назад

Thank you! i gotta say, it helps a lot when you sing the chord names while playing!

@McStevus 2 года назад

How good is that melody!

Justin, you know it and show it; the right hand makes the magic here. Thanks.

@manueltrujillano2995 3 года назад

@stephenhobbs4571 10 лет назад

Thanks Justin your easy step by step moves have me trying guitar again after too many years absence...I reckon I will get it this time

@utubadore 14 лет назад

I've never really appreciated this song until I heard you sing it. Bravo! I can't wait for Close Your Eyes - my son's favorite.

@emmayarseeyuess9044 5 месяцев назад

Love it. One of my JT favorites. Will definitely be playing this. You give um great lesson.

@Sandman-ne1gz 4 года назад

@stefcat1 10 месяцев назад

You are amazing. Thank you

@sweinreich 14 лет назад

Justin...great way to teach the song by singing the chord names and viewing the chords themselves. I may never play the song this well but I will have a better chance now that I've seen your video. Thanks from St. Louis

@stephenhobbs4571 11 лет назад

Gotta go out and buy my second guitar...last one got a bit broken due to my crap playing ability about twenty five years back...thanks to you, Justin, I will now try again.

@guidososi3491 4 года назад

Thanks. Well done.

@franksfiddle9031 2 года назад

Fantsdtic song that I've loved for so many years. Incredible when you think he wrote in the car apparently ... and your version is excellent Justin ... be trying this over the next few weeks .. thank you

@Pendrym 7 лет назад

best tutorial for this song, once again great Justin!

@alancallaghan9924 4 года назад

Your tutorials are so good , this is my favourite. I was 10 years old when this came out , my elder brother had the Album and I played it to death.Still one of my go to records and I still have my brothers original vinyl LP. Also your tutorial for Needle and the damage done, Neil Young set me on the road to learning to play the guitar properly instead of half tunes and giving up. Your awesome, keep them coming. 🎸🍺

@jamaicahraebugayong7533 6 лет назад

can you do more James Taylor tutorial? I love how you make things easier. And your vocals well what can i say it's perfect

@bwalklet 14 лет назад

so happy to hear that you are gonna do more james taylor...especially close your eyes. It would be great if you could also do a lesson on "soldiers"...a short, sweet, and underrated james taylor tune!

@randyventresca4152 8 лет назад

@motorhome52 13 лет назад

Thanks Justin, I just love James Taylor. You mentioned covering "Carolina on my mind", will we have long to wait? No hurry I'm still learning this one and it could take another month before that is accomplished. Thanks again for your excellent lessons.

@markvilleneuve2937 10 лет назад

@SearayJim 12 лет назад

I laugh when I see how you teach, because its so silly sometimes with the "chord vocals", but 1000% effective. You're an incredible and thorough instructor. Thank you!!

@rabidgoldfish65 9 лет назад

Well done! Thank you!!

@terryadams3489 4 года назад

@MrTkc09 12 лет назад

Whatever happened to Carolina on my mind. Must have lost that James Taylor inspiration. LOL. Great Lessons always.

@Cabronosidad 11 лет назад

Brilliant lesson. Thanks a million. Yesterday I became a grandad to a gorgeous baby boy, named... yes, you guessed it, James, so hopefully I'm going to be singing him to sleep to this. Thanks again.

@funguy4utube 10 лет назад

Fantastic song song - a classic .. really appreciate this excellent lesson .. Justin this particular song really suits your voice. I am sure I speak for many people out here on the other side of the screen when I say we really appreciate your lessons Would love to hear you and Marty Jamz doing this - with maybe Marty on pedal slide .. or just a simple two acoustic guitar campfire scene … next time you visit the U.S. Such a pure and great song isn't it. JT was/is unique. I heard back in his young days he was buddies with the Beatles, how cool is that. Sweet baby !

@MrMohammadim 13 лет назад

and long life JAMES...

@madie31 14 лет назад

carolina in my mind i hope!

@Larry342516 10 лет назад

Great job Justin, vocals weren't bad either.....lol. I am kidding. You did a fantastic job all the way around. Wish I could do that song half as good as you. Take care my friend.

@11tones 14 лет назад

great stuff Justin! I was about to teach my son how to play the JT stuff and I stumbled upon your vids. Thanks for all the stuff you're doing. He is going to be your fan. BTW I would like to know what video camera of film you're using for utube, the picture is unusually clear. Thanks tony

@loudandfastisbest 6 лет назад

@davidmuir7711 8 месяцев назад

I gotta ask: are those the original lyrics? As easily followed as chord diagrams and much more fun. Thanks stranger!

@1000gck 10 лет назад

Great stuff.... again!!!. A mate asked me to have a look at this song to play live. What better place to go and learn a song from beginning to end with all the bits and pieces, but JustinGuitar Songs!!! Thanks buddy.

@janeirvine8391 9 лет назад

I visited (and subscribed to) your channel. I love that you've included James Taylor in your extensive repertoire! It would be great if you could do a tutorial on James' Mud Slide Slim. It's got a funky, homey rhythm to it, and I think your voice would complement in nicely! Any plans for some Jackson Browne tutorals as well? Thank you for posting! I like how you sing the chords with the song, it cracks me up!

@77magicbus 14 лет назад

Wow ! Did I ever enjoy that. Love the tutorial. You are a great teacher. I have wondered how to play that for 30 years. Thank you thank you, thank you !

@cameronmurie 7 лет назад

Hey Justin, If you are still reading these from time to time...Cant tell you how much i have learned from your vids, and enjoyed them too....PLEASE take a look at some Townes Van Zandt picking....Pancho n Lefty as he did it on heartworn highways.....IF you think its worth a look Id LOVE your take on that...just asking :-)

@terryadams3489 4 года назад

Thx Justin. I've watched this more than a few times. You are a great teacher,player and singer ! (what kind of guitar is that?)

@MrRichTBiscuit 13 лет назад

Justin, I am sorry I have been with Marty Schwartz... I'm so sorry it will never happen again lol you are the best

@ptalbany 14 лет назад

and yet another great song by a great teacher I must admit I'm no singer but when I paly a song I learn from you I too sing the chords instead of the words to the song people some times look at me funny as I do sometimes sing aloud Sir I tip my hat and bend my knee to the master of RU-vid your frined in the states Paul

@KeepJamen 14 лет назад

Justin! we missed you! It's been a while since your last upload. good to see you again ;)

@dqami 14 лет назад

Hi Justin, thanks for the JT videos! I went to download the pdf but noticed they are no longer on your site. Did "the man" come down on you? Is there a way I can access them?
