Tommy is so far ahead in the Guitar game. He becomes the music. When i walk through the forest on a beautiful day, i put my headphones on to his albums and just feel alive. This guy a more than a musician. He is a mystic.

And to think Joel wrote it for/about Elle Macpherson. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/And_So_It_Goes I'm pretty sure you can write a song as haunted if you broke up with Elle Macpherson for Christie Brinkley.

Never heard the song b4. A family asked me to learn to play it for them. I felt honored. I just assembled all the guitar parts, and now polishing up the rough edges. I appreciate Tommy much more as I play his music and realize what a brilliant wrter he is. Happy '24

This was one of my favorite deep cuts of Billy Joel. The lyrics are very touching of the heart, but the tune is so harmonically rich that to hear you play it with such passion it still touches the my soul. Thanks Tommy.
@startingfingerstyle5 жыл бұрын
This song, and indeed, this very performance of it are what persuaded me to try to play fingerstyle. At last here was an arrangement that an ordinary person might be able try! Even then, that bridge still defeats me. What technique! Flawless. Whole thing delivered with such integrity. No need to be over the top flashy. The playing and the song itself speak to the soul.

Great pick for a cover, Tommy! I knew this one from The King's Singers, also a cover... They did lots of covers of ballads that have great melodies. I heard them in Eindhoven when they did The Good Vibrations tour.* kzbin.info/www/bejne/nHikYqqdrtepobs As an old Shadows fan, like you and Phil, I always look at the melody first for rating a song. That's why I consider rap not to be music, but rhythmic poetry, I guess. I mean: have you EVER even CONSIDERED playing a guitar cover of a rap number? I haven't... because melodically it's NOTHING. You are one of the few that have such a percussive style that you could make something recognisable out of it, but it will never be as successful as a brilliantly written melody, such as this one that we've to thank Billy Joel for. *Oops, every singer has been replaced since then... kzbin.info/www/bejne/fYfHpWaubs-Xhc0
