so many of these comments are expressed as if one day recently ewan picked up a guitar for the first time and was naturally this amazing. don't get me wrong, he IS amazing, but a lot of blood, sweat, tears, time, patience and practice got him to where he is today. Remeber kids, you put in enough time and effort, you will win a real blue ribbon, and not get the same blue cheesy participation award they give to everyone just for showing up. in other words, this is not something you can gain in modern instant gratification society. to be this badass you've got to TRAIN!

All the times he felt like jumping off a bridge but didn't, he kept practicing and Thank God :'( it is beautiful.
