It's funny I was just listening to this song the other day. Gotta love Roy Orbison

[ChristopheOosterwijk]

Marty, I literally have been listening to this song all month. Are you stalking me?? No way man, this happened with Dancing With Myself by Billy Idol last January, and now it’s You Got It by Roy Orbison. Great song 🎵

[LeonardoRodrigues-wyds]

Great lesson. Thanks for teaching this wonderful song!

[Newwaver]

When I think of you and space, I’m like May the Schwarz be with you!!!! 🌌 😅

[Spike-mcqm]

That advert was amazing, I completely forgot this was a tutorial 🤣

[jcburger]

Hey Marty, thank you for the You Got It guitar lesson!!

[danielreddick]

Thanks for this Marty! I’m loving the lessons, and appreciate that easy to follow!!

[kdavis]

I remember when that song came out...such a good tune. He died to early. Mahalo Marty!

[CAllenBlack]

Great tune, love Roy Orbison, thx Marty!

[hotlov]

Right on! I used to play that one when it first came out, but you added some things I didn't play so that's great!

[That_Ginger_MiBa]

Its too bad they dont make music like they used to.
Music nowadays doesnt have that same feeling anymore!

[hotlov]

Could you please do a video of Down in the Flood (Crash on the Levee) by Bob Dylan and shown us some of the fills? There are basic no videos teaching that song, thanks. Or could you make a video playing Tweeter and the Monkey Man by the Travelling Wilburys

[mimeem]

I live for these distrokid commercials😂

[thomaz]

Can you make a playlist of all your led zeppelin lessons?

[daylebron]

I would like if you can do a lesson + Tutorial with the song Sugar, Sugar

[everythingatocne]

Marty I WAS JUST THINKING ABOUT THIS SONG

[mastadutch]

Marty!!! To follow up on your fingerpicking tutorial...could you do a how-to on "Take Off Your Cool" by Outkast and Norah Jones?! Would appreciate it brother!

[MartinMartinez-xdhi]

Not sure if you’ve done it yet but you should do a lesson on Them Bones by AIC!

[xxxx-xx-xxxx]

Hey Marty! Why not doing any of the smokie best hits? They have plenty of great songs in their collections many of whom can be easily played on acoustic guitar
