[@beckywates1819]

A big, big thank you, from Australia. 🎉🎉🎉

[@markrich9619]

Can't believe I've been listening to that sound all my life and had no idea who started it and how simple it was

[@maryjustice1758]

If I could like this a thousand times, I would. Thank you so much. I love this.

[@peterforsythe17]

Floyd Cramer wow, you teach us all the good ..and important music. Thanks Christian.

[@tomluton8005]

Christian I love you playing, enthusiasm , patience etc Thanks much☺️

[@beckywates1819]

So grateful, thank you. Post some more tutorials. 🎉🎉🎉❤

[@Fremulshmat]

Really great tutorial. Well pitched to suit a beginner/improver like myself. Great balance of theory and practical-‘this is how you play it’. Thanks for posting.

[@madamjaynie87]

This is what I need! I play in a country band and need all this “good Stuff” Thank u Christian.

[@hiluholthansen3907]

I am sooo excited!! Giddy for this tutorial. Still working on Beginner blues and "I shall be Released" among others now and then but this one is what I have been looking for forever!!! Thank you Christian Fuchs!

[@joshuaarnold3609]

Best video I’ve ever seen to teach this technique. I’ve been looking for this for a looooong time. Thanks man

[@hongkongtennis]

Hi Christian this is the best lesson on the basic elements of country music that I have ever seen. What I found most difficult as a beginner was that in most books and tutorials a new concept was often taught with a new song, or chord progression in different keys. This made everything three times as hard to learn. The structural approach is the best way. I’ve always wanted to see a series of lessons on the basic elements of all styles. Each style would demonstrated in the same key. You could then use the same song to further demonstrate the stylistic similarities and differences. These lessons would then be accompanied by lessons on how to apply each style to particular songs. Thanks for this one. Great work.

[@ChristianFuchsBlues]

I know exactly what you mean! Also Blues Piano books do that ( separate concepts shown in different keys). Dunno why they do that....

[@tp63us]

Classic…and snippets used in so many other songs/styles! Thank you!

[@keithbrown1189]

Of course, SIXTHS. I play those on guitar all day long! Didn't occur to me until Christian mentioned it

[@christophermartin2842]

Christian thank you so much for all that you do You set the example for keeping information forward readily available to musicians !!! Thank you so much for everything and as a musician i am also teaching others in music as well. The good that you provide is exponential and i pass what i learn from you to other musicians i work with! You are vital not only to me , but also other musicians that i know. The good is and will always be passed on!!!!!

[@arifmemovic3383]

Thank you for this excellent lesson! It is worth noting that country music is more closely associated with heartbreak and drinking oneself into oblivion than happyness, in American culture.

[@ChristianFuchsBlues]

Drinking oneself into oblivion and happiness can overlap for some, though! :-)

[@bonniehare2372]

I don't have a 🐄 but i do have a 🐴. Trying to add a twang sound to Willie Nelson's Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain. I'll give this a go. THANK YOU! 🎶❤️

[@dojomisogi1601]

Thanks Christian. Great to get to know how country music works, it's incredible how much I'm learning with your tutorials! Keep up the good work 👏👏👏🦊🎹🎹

[@beckywates1819]

Great! Can you please play it a bit slower for beginners? Amazing work, I've always wanted to know what you have just taught me. May the Lord Jesus Christ bless you and your loved ones. Ave Maria 🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@aac085]

Perfect TimINNG! I'm new in a country Band in PORTO ALEGRE -BRASIL , and the blues feeling was impregnated...Norah Jones uses these licks, sounds amazing THANK U AGAIN!

Thanx, Maestro from Berlin🌹🌹🌹

[@psychedelicwriter5051]

Thank you, dear Christian)

[@THE2010SHINY]

Hi Master Christian, Thank you for your wonderful tutorials. The drone incidental thing is called a twang in country music. As you can "hear", the sound of "twang" mimics the combination of the piano notes.

[@ChristianFuchsBlues]

Oh thanks! Learned something new!

[@vickybailey7702]

You sound just like a Country Star! I wish I knew this tutorial was coming up. I just spent a year learning this song. Great lesson.

[@jeraldcuccurullo2497]

I learned so much theory from this ! 🙏🌎☮️🎶👀You’re awesome 😇💜🙏

Cannot T.y enough for making me a beast 2 be on my piano 🎹☮️🇺🇸👋👋🥁🌎☮️I pray for world peace as much as I listen to Amazing Grace Christians style I watch the green markings 12 cs then just your hands for seeing your technique so I’m doing rapid results from being focused and Dilligent in my journey with you my best teacher I’ve known save for me.

'There are very suspicious people at the country side, but if you do this they will recognise you as one of their own',you say😂😂😂😂😂👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽I like this

[@mikomv]

Thanks Christian. I love your videos.

[@tbthornton5305]

Yet, again, nice one. Thanks! If you are ever inclined, it would be great to see your take on Nicky Hopkin's piano style. It had some country tinges, albeit placed within the context of his own unique style.

[@cassiansandmann3271]

Hi Christian, any chance of a lesson on “on the rebound”? Incredible lessons

[@neelavobhattacherjee1296]

Create a series for country piano 🎹

[@ChristianFuchsBlues]

I like your name. Made me think instantly of Butter Ghee. Is that in any way derived from that? ( I am a big India fan..)

[@neelavobhattacherjee1296]

@@ChristianFuchsBlues no sir . It isn't derived from that . 😂 . Love from India

[@jakehoneywill1]

Good one! Love those little trills..thx

[@GoRobo237]

So much great info in this tutorial. Thanks alot!

[@williampaganucci1084]

Love your videos Christian. Not only are you a good teacher, you are funny too. I'm learning piano at age 63. I learned You Are My Sunshine using the 5th in the LH. Also learned a boogie woogie style. I don't completely understand everything you teach such as major 6 and major 3 and tonic note? But I guess the 6th note on a C chord would be A? Love Floyd Cramer and follow his grandson Jason Coleman on YT. Would love to be able to play Last Date some day. I also follow some boogie woogie piano players on YT. Terry Miles and Brendan Kavanagh.

[@Coppillie]

Yes, the 6th of C is the A

[@poemsnow4898]

Thank you! Outstanding fun! -- Kirk Reynolds

[@joseph2832]

Such a good lesson, such a good vibe!

[@jimredner2649]

Thank you so much for this tutorial! I am a beginner at piano and your explanations are just what I need to be able to play the country style piano I long to play. Great video lesson!

[@simonwale6993]

Great lesson 👏

[@wardbond7497]

This is great 👍👍👍

[@papyber]

Hey, that was great, Christian, thanks for this new tutorial, I can practically smell a typical mixture of orchards, barns. and chicken coops. bernard

[@ChristianFuchsBlues]

Yes, that smell is me. I try to cover it up with after shave from the discounter. But we can never quite hide where we come from...

[@daviddavis4729]

So great and fun.This gives me more material to massacre and have great fun doing it!! Thank you Christian!!

[@jaykay1053]

This is great! I love your easy-going style of teaching.

[@richmurphy8144]

Great tutorial as always. And I loved the quick shout out to Deliverance!

[@ChristianFuchsBlues]

I even had 5 seconds of the banjo duel in it, but then thought the boy's face might unsettle too many. ;-) Great movie!

[@Tookitout]

So hilarious. Love the Deliverance.

[@anitapalmer271]

Awesome! Glad to see that you are taking a 'good listen' to some of the Greatest Country songs and sounds. Thanks so much for picking out some of the intervals that Floyd Cramer used to get such cool unique sounds. No such thing as too much Country, as long as you're covering more Classics. I haven't found a video from you on any Patsy Cline, (Crazy) it would be nice to have a 'how to' for Crazy. Thanks so much!

[@pianistluckyson1324]

I can feel it 🔥

[@leannechinnery6627]

I choked on my breakfast Oates when you made your “crap” comment 😂🤣 I love your videos, they’re very informative but with lots of fun ❤❤

slooooow moooothion. i love you

[@georgeb2691]

Great to see country licks added to your lessons. I've been working on 'Behind Closed Doors' by Charlie Rich---this lesson has provided good information to apply to that song. The sheet music is in C---which sounded off until I realized the original was recorded in C#. Look forward to additions to your 'Country' lessons. (PS Go easy on the sarcasm regarding country music. You don't ridicule other genres as you teach. You will find yourself in the woods behind the country bar squealing like a pig.)

[@joelongoria9862]

Can u do where no one go alone?

[@Alex16993]

Thank you so much for this! One question - when I play this in a band, wouldn't I stop on top of the bass player with my left hand rhythm pattern?

[@jdlrockford]

Hi Christian. Aren’t the ‘accidentals’ actually ‘grace notes’? Good video!

[@ChristianFuchsBlues]

Many words for the same thing. His style is actually called slip note style. So there's another one...:-)

[@christophermartin2842]

what about more hillbilly country like the song from Dwight Yokham titled Guitars and Cadillacs?

[@BobMinsky]

thank you christian, am I allowed to scream "Yiii AH" at the end of the chorus ? :-)

[@ChristianFuchsBlues]

Yes, but the correct spelling is "Yiiii", with four i! Please use auto correction in the future.
