I wish that 60 years ago, someone had encouraged me to learn guitar.

[@liamwinter4512]

No time like the present

[@Gidgetwaterbear000]

How about now? I hope the heavens the answer doesn't embarrass me but to your hands still work? ❤❤😏😁😘✨🫶🪶🙏🏼

[@frakognome4434]

Get a short scale parlor guitar, tune It down a full step, start to play. One is never too old to learn, just a couple of notes will make your day. Three chords, your life.

[@chrisinkansas1362]

Like Liam said, no time like the present! Just get you a cheap acoustic and watch KZbin, tons of lessons out there. Or if you want a more personal experience look up instructors in your area!!

[@RALLYFANCLUBn1]

значит были более интересные дела- раз 1960 годы не стал играть на гитаре- тогда же все наверно на гитарах играли - битломания и так далее)

[@johnhearst3851]

Thank You Justin. You are the most musical player I know. Not silly legato typing exercises. As on old dude struggling with malignant cancer, your music gives me peace. And someone gave you the very best compliment: You are not playing the guitar, you are talking through it. : )

[@jamesgreene6364]

Yes sir my friend they're not a lot of people who understand how this man speaks with all of his guitars he is a musical genius and hate to hear about your cancer sir it took my grandpaw and this song reminds me of him so much and I send so many prayers and good will to you and your family sir

[@deborahdanhauer8525]

I hope you are well soon❤️

[@Igornopolis]

Its gonna be all good, fella. Cheers

[@markcooper8561]

Peace.

[@davidrockey7190]

Keep playing there's nothing more healing 🤫🗿

[@GuitarJoLa]

Ain’t no sunshine without Justin’s fingerstyle gems! ☀️🎸💎😎

[@martincox9691]

I know, I know, I know, I know, I know……..

[@steveavant9727]

He certainly brightens a dark day.

[@nelsfreeman7465]

That's what she said

[@MarcSiqueira]

I never expected to see someone make this tune even better than the original already is! Wow!

[@Gidgetwaterbear000]

Dang... Justin I think you're a part of my cadré.. This is the fourth or fifth time you've uploaded a song that my soul needed that day.. This is a song to my Daughter whom I am missing terribly. I will see her soon but until then thank you for giving my heart a voice today

[@Gidgetwaterbear000]

I've never seen you say you take requests LOL, but I think I'm not to let that stop me 😅 but someday if you feel inspired to do so there's 50 year old mom of one, that would be just elated to hear you play," My Girl", one of these glorious Days. Her name is Elizabeth Gracie Mae, btw😘🪶🫶😊

[@justinjohnsonlive]

I really love music's way of showing up just when you need it, too! Love that it's doing that for you.

[@JesusLeBlunt]

Talking bout showing up.. i wanna sing on that!

[@EllisDashayel]

I think we could ask Justin to play "Mary Had a Little Lamb" and what we'd get would be a beautifully haunting, rich, compelling piece of music.

[@habsom1406]

Lordy!!! That moody soulful bluesy undercurrent vibe really disarms you and gets right under your skin, you have no choice but to surrender and enjoy! The man has a rare talent in his ability to interpret a song beautifully and give voice to a set of strings even though no words are spoken!

[@chuchunichichi]

I just absolutely love that naturally amplified woody sound that you cannot get from piezos. This is acoustic guitar heaven. Thank you JJ!

[@martinmartin8871]

Wrong! I knew from the first note it is a blended tone. I saw two dif mics and the 1 1/4" plug out the butt. Great Am blues music and tone!

[@emersonhixson4228]

I've never heard anyone make the guitar sound like this. You make it look effortlessly, as a guitarist myself I understand how much talent you have. Im blown away by how great you make it sound. Very glad I happen to find your music here on KZbin. Can listen to you play for hours. So relaxing and soothing. Keep up the good work Justin

[@bethedoG...gohome]

Your talent never ceases to amaze me! One guy. One guitar. So much sound! Subtle here. Bold there. And everything in between. I can't comprehend how one brain can keep track of it all!! I sure hope we both get to Heaven because I want hear what that God given talent sounds like at the ultimate level!!! Everything good true and beautiful comes from the Lord, and that was beautiful! THANKS!!

[@crmotter1235]

You skills are unmatched

[@luluwinke6581]

truly, his own league

[@kippsguitar6539]

And your English! Yes he's great

[@jamesdaniels3699]

Justin you're the guitar Man 🪄🎸

[@q.d.mcgraw]

One of my favorite tunes!

[@dalgguitars]

Gosh, this was just beautiful. Not over played. I think it kept to the original feeling of the Bill Withers song. Fantastic. Thank you.

[@sgt.grinch3299]

Ain’t no Sunshine was the first song I heard after I lost my Yellow Lab, Tootsie. She was the most gentile soul I have ever met. Thanks for playing this song, it brought a tear to my eye.

[@kelleemerson9510]

Justin's playing is a perfect drug. A vibrational cleansing, healing and spiritual improvement.

[@bradlaird743]

As hard as this would be to play like Justin....he is so relaxed. Just very much feeling his music....this is why you can feel it so deeply when he plays.!

[@Chopper140]

Really doesn’t even look like he’s trying at all which means this stuff his just rolling off his fingers

[@justathought88]

Justin, you did it again! I just didn't want the song to end. Thank you. This was beautiful.

[@detlevpomp]

Herrlich! Toll gespielt und ein Weltklasse song!👏👍🎸🎶

[@jif753]

Wow absolute magic

[@lizakarsai8968]

My 00-18 loves you, Justin, because you inspire me to really work my butt off to be a better musician. Thanks for lighting the way to magic.

[@SUNUNCONQUERABLE]

GODLIKE !!!! Everything you touch becomes gold instantly!!

[@stephanieprice5029]

Thanks, Justin! Love that song, and you played it beautifully ❤

[@sambow4u]

I've been actually playing for about 50 yrs. and played all over the south ! listened , played , picked with about all the bigger performers and without a doubt , Justin Johnson has the keenest ear for Heart felt soulful music ! My desire has always been to not,,, just play that wood box , bu tomake it describe my feeling and actually speak ! Justin Johnson can make that happen , time and time again !

[@300spartacus]

What a blessing 🖤 thank you Bill 🙏 thank you Justin

[@estenray6685]

DamnJustin! Simply brilliant!

[@paulsullivan6392]

A masterful arrangement of one of Bill Withers (RIP) finest songs. It almost equals the pathos of Withers' "Grandmas Hands." Well done sir...well done.

[@SteveHigney123go]

I fell into this and couldn't get out. when it ended, things got very quiet. i needed more. Thanks for taking me to that special musical place.👍

[@mahometttorsa3858]

this is soooo amazingly beautiful.Thank you ,sir !!!!!

[@casperkasparov302]

Lots of fine folks, that know their music, say Justin Johnson is underrated. I agree. But when you consider that millions of people heard of him, or met him, or say he stayed in their house, or subscribed to his channel. Whatever the reason. Added up, it makes Justin Johnson Guitar GOAT and Musician of Musicians status.

[@nigelcrete3901]

Justin your an amazing guitarist. I could listen to you all day. In fact sometimes I do.

[@ruthhancock7665]

Just amazing… Justin makes it look so effortless.

[@janrandles8683]

Love to hear you play Justin. It always seems to show up when I need it most. Thanks! Hope you and Nikki are both having a great time! ❤

[@daveh5635]

Awesomeness on display JJ!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@Dabbo_007]

Justin,just wanted to say your incredible man. You've inspired me to pick up the guitar after fives years of being discouraged I couldn't play again after a injury to my strumming hand. I've been back at for about a month an couldn't be happier keep it up man

[@flights_of_fancy5819]

Instant goosebumps. I am so often left asking myself how this man and his guitar reach so deeply into my soul.

[@dustyoldduster6407]

Years ago, when I first started building my digital song library, "Ain't No Sunshine" was one of the first to be added. Your cover of this song is wonderful. It builds slowly, and gradually works in complexity, including your own imbellishments sprinkled throughout, that makes it uniquely a Justin Johnson version. Good job.

[@davidallen3162]

Thanks for sharing this wonderful rendition of a classic song. I just close my eyes and let the way you play the guitar, soothe me.

[@lauralaine8678]

Absolutely what I needed on a Friday night! This is so serene & smooth 🤍

[@nickweinke7966]

My wife & I have been constantly amazed by your talent, we can’t NOT hear the words! Thanks so much! You are the goat!

[@jhondoe5147]

Some times you take my breath away Justin. Thank You for what you do.

[@cliftondejarnette8034]

Have always enjoyed any acoustic version of this song

[@chasinafterjasonachildsadv733]

Elegant touch. reaches deep inside your soul.

[@0TTERROCK]

Just finished listening, love both your fashion and your covers!

[@darlenemeans7896]

The love in their eyes is palatable. This kinda of love is so wonderful to behold. Beautiful.

[@chrisneuhaus7188]

Perfect for a Friday evening!😊👏👏👏

[@CSAndrewHenry]

Beautiful playing! Thank you Justin. Love the guitar, it sounds amazing, but then I imagine you could make an Amazon box strung with rubber bands sound great!

[@catzdollz9810]

Oh Justin! How exquisite.
