One of the best lessons for this song I've seen on the web. The Tabs are very helpful and the sing through tops it off. Good work.

[@thestellarguitarist]

Oh wow I’m jealous! That must have been quite epic 🔥🎶 thank you for checking out the lesson, hopefully see you in the next one! 😊

[@wsavage3696]

Another great song and tutorial! I know all the chords! Thank you so much!! Right now here in Kansas City it is storming!! ⛈️ Almost 8 am. Have a great day!!!

[@thestellarguitarist]

I’m so happy you enjoyed the guitar lesson 🎸🎶😁 I guess ‘dancing in the moonlight’ is a very big contrast to a thunderstorm at 8am in the morning 🫢 sounds intense! Hopefully the storm has passed by now! have a lovely weekend coming up and see you in the next lesson! 🤩

[@wsavage3696]

Do you like Blake Shelton?? Been so into “No body but you” lately !! Lol Tutorial??? He also does one called just “Nobody” and that one is so good too!

[@GVANTSA31]

[@brandonflorida1092]

By King Harvest. Great lesson. Great singing. Thanks.

[@thestellarguitarist]

Thanks so much for watching and your kind words 🎵😊

[@hartcons]

so with the capo on that's a 2 5 1 6 progression in the key of Eb? nice change of pace from the axis of awesome progression. I didn't know there was a C/B chord. you learn something new every day!

[@thestellarguitarist]

Yes! key is Eb. Luckily with the capo on, we don't need to play any barre chords! Love my capo! But you are right, 2 5 1 6 (Fm Bb Eb Cm) 😊 So glad you enjoyed the lesson! 🎸

[@hartcons]

that intro melody line is nice, too. great song. great lesson. @@thestellarguitarist

[@rmas]

Aaaamaaaziing ❤❤❤ thx so much

[@thestellarguitarist]

Yay! Thanks for checking out the lesson, glad you enjoyed it! 😁⭐️🎵

[@felixt1470]

King Harvest version is the best.

[@shaunabloom6088]

Hi Amber, my name is Shauna Bloom and would you mind to do some of my tutorials like Ronan Keating song When You Say Nothing At All and make sure 😅you have everything the same way as Ronan Keating like same chords, same strumming patterns and same fingerpicking patterns. Also could you do some Lady Gaga’s songs like Shallow, Always remember us this way, Is That Alright, I’ll never love again, Million Reasons also make sure you have everything the same way as Lady Gaga like same chords, same strumming patterns and same fingerpicking patterns. Also can you please find out how many times do we strum/fingerpicked each chords for all sections of the songs. Also you can start with these songs first ok.

[@kentmulter]

Hi, nice video! But is there an error in the chord diagrams at 2:20? I don't think the C/B chord should include the open D string.

[@thestellarguitarist]

Hi! Thank you 😊 technically, the D string shouldn’t ring out in a C/B chord. You are right! in this instance the chord is acting as a walking bass line from the C-B-A. But yes, the note D doesn’t belong in the chord. But keeping the chord shapes beginner friendly for the fast changing in the walk down section 🎶✨

[@pleurose]

❤❤❤

[@thestellarguitarist]

Thank you 🎵

[@troubadourromanesque3531]

Hello can you give me the sound of silence tea chords please.

[@WingForte-ph6uf]

I am from Brazil, i am Neto and i would like to play let it be.

[@thestellarguitarist]

Great song request!

[@MrTuberguber]

Always loved this song, but I only knew it by King Harvest.

[@thestellarguitarist]

Hi! Thanks for tuning in 😃 both the original and the cover by Toploader are amazing 🙏 I just know the Toploader version a bit better and have such fond memories of listening to their CD as a kid 🎶

[@MrTuberguber]

I'm glad I found your lessons, you seem like a lovely person.@@thestellarguitarist

[@alainuythethofken1871]

Hi, Amber very pretty dedication, song for her mom and your husband, I would have liked to see that the guests came to join you at the opening, I can well imagine the scene with the dresses in the hands to turn the veils and put on the step of dance at the dirty dancing Thank you my friend

[@thestellarguitarist]

Such a lovely message Alain, thank you 🙏 😊 Dancing in the Moonlight really is such an emotional song for me, I’m glad to have been able to share it with everyone 🎶☺️
