This makes me nostalgic for a time in my life that never existed

Thomas,
At 81 years old I have just discovered the instrument you are playing here. I love the sound of it, and you are the only guy I have heard play it that can bring out the best in it.
You are on my favorite list forever and why don't you put out a couple of music videos. I'd be a buyer for sure.

World is strange. 8 months after you uploaded this song, I got my first cat. Just a small little furball I rescued from the streets that grew so close to me. Fast forward eleven years. Exactly 8 days before this vid reached its 12th anniversary, I found her lying dead in the kitchen. On this day, this song was in my recommended videos and I dearly remembered everything from the first day, like a flashback. This cat was like a daughter to me and this song resembles her somehow. The love and peace she gave me, every moment she made precious. All is in this song and I come back to it from time to time.
Thank you Thomas!

It reminds me of a song you never heard you instantly know by heart.. Old soul second sight stuff

[Joepack]

That tuning down & back up is a power move. Awesome.

[JavierEzpeleta]

Makes me love this life.

[lspawl]

Never heard this song before. But it brought tears to my eyes.

[southroncross]

This is the kind of music where you just grab yourself a drink, sit down in your comfy chair, and, relax. Its beautiful. Well done, Thomas. Take a bow.

[billgausman]

Listening to this beautiful and well played song is making me melt. Thanks for the great music, Thomas!

I think what makes this so honest is the way it's recorded -you can hear all the string noise - the bar on the strings during vibrato, etc. That stuff almost always gets nuked in production. Good job T. Oliver !
