[@Alexander-kh2rc]

Omg the pure quality of this tutorial is off the roof, useful and also educational

[@jwithrowmusic]

Wow!! Thank you so much

[@postcard9889]

Woke up at 2 am, couldn't sleep... It started to rain hard as I was tuning in. Then it's hardly raining at the end of the video. This is the best presented tutorial I found in serendipity.

[@jwithrowmusic]

Truly serendipitous :)

[@Tiiheng62]

Incredible good explanation of this song on a guitar. Thanks a lot for that

[@jwithrowmusic]

Yeah, I'm glad it could help you!

[@matthewrimando3228]

Beautiful content. Helps beginners go all around the guitar neck and not stuck with basic chords and capos.

[@jwithrowmusic]

I really appreciate the comment! So glad it's helpful to you.

[@matthewrimando3228]

@@jwithrowmusic btw no one's said this in the comments yet, but beautiful voice! You also remind me of Josh Dun from Twenty One Pilots hehe

[@jwithrowmusic]

Wow thanks so much! And I definitely can see that Josh Dun resemblance. Never noticed that till now

You are extremely easy to follow and you do a fantastic job of breaking it down. I have been playing for a couple of years and I would still watch your videos to learn something new. Thank you

Awesome, thank you Em! I will keep trying to put out content like it :)

[@AndrewnotLogan]

Dude. You did such a good job. Following. Notifications on.

[@jwithrowmusic]

Thanks so much!!

[@PK-rl7zp]

I used to wonder how they make these acoustic guitars sound so nice and rich. Thank you for naming them (strumming effects and numbering system and the 7ths etc) as you go about explaining this beautifully. When you can name it, you rememeber it and you reuse it. And that is awesome guru!

[@jwithrowmusic]

"When you can name it, you remember it and you reuse it." I totally agree!! Thank you

[@rigscorpuz766]

you did it great man.. u explained it little by little even the struming and plucking you did it .. even in the smallest thing of the chords the hammering yaaaahh keep it up bro.. High quality

[@jwithrowmusic]

Thanks a ton!

[@Pensacola2]

Could you please consider doing a cover and tutorial for ''just friends'' by musiq soulchild? It's RnB too.

[@jwithrowmusic]

I will consider it man! I'm definitely looking into other R&B tunes

Thank you so much!

[@orinblank2056]

Really like the tutorial! My only real criticism of it, which is mainly for the sake of convenience, would be to ask for you to do a full playthrough of what you're teaching just guitar, maybe only play each section once, and then start each section by fully playing it, then going into detail. The current format is great for more beginning players, but as someone who can pick up on the chords and techniques pretty quick without the explanations, it would be good to be able to just see them in a more streamlined fashion with more continuity. It could also be good for beginning players, to see something to reference after watching the whole section. At that point they would know the steps and mainly want to see them done smoother. Pretty small thing honestly. Overall, the tutorial was super great and you broke things down really well

[@jwithrowmusic]

I really appreciate the feedback! It will be helpful for future videos. Thank you!

Great lesson! Thank you very much! What strings are u using?

[@jwithrowmusic]

Hi! I'm either using D'Addario Phosphor Bronze lights or Elixir Nanoweb lights. It's been a minute and I can't remember which I was using at the time.

[@hellypalli]

I have 3 other versions of playing this song, 2 are okay, 1 is pretty good, but this by far is the best, i do like the way you teach, i just gotta get used to a few things, only thing that sometimes threw me out was when you referred to position 1 or 2 and forgot to say it was what ever chord etc, you normally did, But if i knew cage then i would of followed etc

[@jwithrowmusic]

It's great to hear that it's been a solid tutorial for you. Yes, I'm always talking in numbers :) I've got a video on number system if you'd like to check it out --> kzbin.info/www/bejne/p2Grcn2LlNxleac

[@elainefillname9856]

thank you soooo much! but since i'm a woman this wouldn't be quite nice for my voice, could you maybe write the "correct" chords also down?? It would be soo helpful :)

Elaine, I actually have a tab PDF with all the chords from the original key of G that Alicia sings. Here is the web page for you to download it from: jwithrow.com/if-i-aint-got-you

Thank you! I count it in 6/8

[@piotrjankowski5526]

Hi, great tutorial but would be really nice if you would play all parts at the beginning so viewer can decide if he wants to spend 20+ minutes on specific tutorial

[@jwithrowmusic]

Noted!

[@isorozco511]

I thought it was in the key of G major

[@jwithrowmusic]

Yes, the original is :) This version is for male vocal range.
