Paul, your playing and filming are both inspiring and relaxing. I love your mellow but confident and friendly tone.

I've loved the Beatles for over 45 years . I've never understood why George was regarded as such a great guitarist until this video . for something that doesn't seem to complicated but that was the magic . it was complicated but he made it seem simple . I can see clearly now .

[TechMoneyFuture]

You're like the Bob Ross of guitar.

Listening to your sweet tones reminds me of my acoustic guitar tutor, when I was just 18. He had a way of breaking down a complicated melody and making sense of it, so I could just pick the right notes from a chord progression and somehow it sounded just right. 48 years later (!!!) I'm still grateful to him.

Whilst George was in Eric’s garden Eric was upstairs in George’s garden.

George Harrison is definitely my favorite Beatle not only because of his quiet and effective mentality, but when he wrote songs for the band, they were sure to be memorable! This is definitely one of my favorites from him, so awesome to see you break it down here!

My whole day has been A7, but this video took me back to D.... know what I mean?

I won't lie, I used to play the guitar like a fanatic when I was younger, throughout school and early on in college but as I got older and other things took priority and precedence, I suddenly find myself with no time to spare for the passion of guitar playing. I'm not great at it, barely decent at best, but your videos, Paul, they make me pick up the guitar and spends my free hours on jamming out my favorite tunes. Your videos are full of charisma and inspiration, so much so that they always manage to get me to reach for my old lady and make her sing. I'm gonna spend more time on my this old passion of mine, and I just wanted to let you know that you gave me the 'push' to do it. Thank you so much.

I’ve been playing for forty years but im still intermediate in skill. I love your videos because they bring me out of my comfort zone to try something different without making me uncomfortable. I hope that makes sense. Thank you!

"The subdominant chord has a relaxing, and soothing sound. We are going away from home... but everything is good :) It's a nice little journey." - The Bob Ross of Guitars

The soft voice of this guy while he plays Here Comes the Sun in the nature is the most ASMR video one can find without looking for ASMR.

Here I am again after 4 years watching this one again. I saved it to "watch later" to always remember how great you are at breaking down an iconic 3 chords song like no other person on the planet. Thanks Paul ✌️☮️🙏🕊

I’m so grateful my dad showed me this type of music and about guitars. This part of YouTube is such a positive place and I’m so glad to be here at a young age.

You're the best guitar teacher that I have ever seen. Nobody can take place of you. Not even the best guitar players because they only play, but you, you explain what they play. That's what a guitar player wants. I truly appreciate your work. Don't forget to keep up your beard 😁

[LisajacobiArtistArtist]

Thanks, Paul. I'm enjoying the LPP course. I "finished" it and now am doing it again. Lots of pearls of wisdom and proper technique that I never had learned properly. You are a jewel.

[TiagoLageira]

Did you really had to break in Eric Clapton's garden to teach us this song?

[AnthonyMonaghan]

The genius of George Harrison laid bare and explained beautifully. Thank you.

[scottfineshriber]

I do not understand many of the musical terms, but this sure makes me appreciate the artistry of playing guitar.

* Explains clearly why George Harrison needed to be so skilled to be able to play the song *

* Effortlessly plays the song *
