Shit, when you're that good, you don't even need words. Let the guitar sing on its own. And that's what I'm talking about. Yeah ......... buddy. Sing sing guitar sing Okay now one neck. Fantastic job bro.... Good music from the good old days. They just don't make Music like this anymore. Most of the music they make these days is garbage now or maybe I just got old. Because every time I hear this song. It brings me right back to great 7.

[@paulsmith5202]

Would have loved to hear it slowed down a notch! Seemed rushed but as always the guitar work is perfection 🥰

[@tjjansen6642]

Good grief...one man playing a simple acoustic guitar in a way that makes it sound like 3 really well played guitars all at once. I'd probably give up my penis if I could play this well. Bravo!

[@mkecomida9057]

Super

[@stephenwadsworth6012]

As always thanks. I used to have a tablature (Not sure why Google doesn't like the spelling of this?) book for Appetite for Destruction, yes before the internet. One of their masterpieces. So nice acoustic, have you seen the Slash and Miles Kennedy Sessions on here. Pity Axls voice not as strong as it used to be, like what he did with AC/DC. Finally got to see them live in 2018, 3 hours standing in the rain, waiting for Axl to get the all clear. Was open air stadium, freezing. But worth it. Cost me over a $1000.00 in the end travel, etc. Starting to save for Maiden, but now no body I no I can bunk with, going to have to fly, only one concert. Have you listened to Bruces's new album? Heard a hopefully legit and reliable rumor that Metallica may finally make it here in the end of 2025. Hope all is well. I had a lot of guitars when I was young and my Dad has been in bands, and been playing since the 50's, self taught. He looked exactly like me at the same age playing. He plays by ear, so I got him to start teaching me One in a Million of Lies, he said you only like this stuff because they swear. He likes Metallica now. He had a serious injury in his fretting hand when he was young, he got electrocuted by a heater. He struggled on. Last year sadly he fell and hurt himself and his muscles wasted away in his arm and he nearly died. He has bought himself a new guitar as his body stopped making red blood cells. Back then most of us had to sell them to have our families etc. :) Visited last month, first time in 5 years, every time more special. 52 on Friday, did Karaoke at local pub, sung The Piano Man by Billy Joel (50 years old this year). Kia Kaha. Hope you get time to read this, hope it's not too much. Sorry I sought have to grab these moments when all the thoughts together . Apparently gaining some popularity on fan channels now. Are we going to hear anymore from that amazing violinist. I give you so much credit for the replies you do give. Something that disappears when you grow to big, doesn't go away all together though. :) Somehow feeling some Catharias, these days (Helps a lot). I suffer from Bi Polar and PTSD. So I gush at times, but it helps when down. :) Worse thing is I can't do as much as I used to, not work as much. Not always a bad thing. I hope you get the opportunity. Things pretty tough everywhere financially at the moment and this government likes to shift the wealth right and take from those least able to give. Had a surprise though they have kept two lot's of assistance they campaigned on removing. :) Early days yet though.

[@timtailor2038]

It's wonderful! I love your covers! Please make Aerosmith? I'm sure you'll find it very interesting.

[@ThomasZwijsen]

Thanks! Yes I should do some Aerosmith at some point, good idea!

[@Natataek]

I suppose i shouldn't be surprised you made one of my most despised songs (due to the amount of repetition in music college), bearable to listen to! Next: Stairway to Heaven!

[@ThomasZwijsen]

Ha. We have to collaborate (again) on stairway to heaven, the best version was the one you probably don’t remember!

[@Natataek]

@@ThomasZwijsenafter some "hot chocolate"🤣i think i was playing a different song...

[@ertacceker4931]

🔥🤘🔥

[@catjudo1]

Another outstanding composition, Mr. Zwijsen! I am curious why you chose to use the standard-style classical for this arrangement, at least in the video, when your signature model has the cutaway. I would have thought the cutaway might suit this piece more, but you obviously thought otherwise. Care to enlighten someone who isn't the expert you are? 😺🤘🤘🤘

[@ThomasZwijsen]

Thank you so much! Yes definitely the cutaway would have made it easier to play, but easier isn’t always better.. the full size classical guitar has a better and fuller sound, so if I CAN pull it off on that one I would often chose that… there aren’t too many super high notes in the arrangement (apart from the intro) so it is doable! Also the guitar is tuned down to match the original key, and the basses are even more tuned down; the classical guitar has a higher action (the strings are less close to the neck) so has less chance of creating unwanted rattling sounds :)
