[tsuhinu]

[elizar.]

finished learning the whole song in a day! never thought that I would be able to play such a masterpiece! my first fingerstyle ever 😭🥰

[chipdafry]

This is one of your greatest tutorials in my opinion
Such a sophisticated song simplified in such a way that even beginner can grasp
I've finished learning it in less than a month and I'm very proud of myself :)))

I like how versatile this song is. I've heard 3 different versions with tabs and they're great because they each have a different take

[tobeboom]

I've been playing guitar for 6 years now and still can't play all the "super easy" tutorials on here but I'm so thankful that this exists because this is actually realistic for me to play, thank you so much :D

"Es confuso verdad, sin embargo sabes perfectamente cuando estás mal, todo en tu cuerpo física y mentalmente te lo hace saber, te notas flojo y con pensamientos fatalistas, esa sensación de que está todo perdido y que ya nada volverá a ser como antes. Te torturas recordando un vivencia pasada aleatoria que en aquel entonces ni siquiera parecía un buen momento pero comparada a como te sientes ahora se podría decir que fuiste feliz sin saberlo"
-Tri line

Literally amazed, I couldn't even play a single song and this is the only one that I could ever play. I'm very grateful you made this

[Blaky]

Estoy enamorada 😭❤️ muchas gracias, se me llenaron los ojos de lágrimas de saber que voy a poder tocar esta hermosa canción que me hace recordar muchísimo a mi abuela ❤️
Te lo agradezco de corazón ♥️😭

Such a beautiful rendition of the song. This is proof that simple doesn't mean inferior. In this case the simplicity really added to the overall song.
I've been playing for about 6-8 years (with some breaks), but I am learning fingerstyle just now, and this is a perfect song to start practicing. Simple and beautiful.
Your tabs and playthroughs are really helpful to not just beginners, but to those of us as well who are just realizing the awesomeness of fingerstyle playing. Thank you, and keep up the good work!

this video format is perfect for learning, simple yet complete, slow pace that doesn't sound forced and perfect playing angle

[p.rady]

I have gotten my guitar a week ago and watched the movie a few days ago... I cant wait to call this my first song that I managed to really fully play. Its Beautiful and ironically I like the simplicity of this over lets say other covers without that simplicity. So thank you for that!
