Thank you!!

[@mattgahr]

The pitch bending took this from a 10/10 to a 15/10. One of the most enjoyable examples of slide playing I’ve ever heard. Well done!

Two months ago I bought a Duesenberg Lap steel and I am not sorry that I have and I am in my late 60's you are never too old to retrain, love the way Luke Cyrus Goetze plays amazing player, Thank you Luke

[@RodKirkbride]

maureen wilson hows it going with it? I need a Fairytale!!

[@j.r.wishmire6459]

@Richard Obdeijn Troy Brenningmeyer has a great video for getting into this specific instrument (:

[@parkerfilms1]

You have added to the inspiration of this young man's work. I, too, am considering getting a Fairytale, along with a Weissenborn. Thank you

[@wally3608]

maureen wilson I am 65, just bought a second hand Gretsch 5700. I have a Duesenberg bender and want to install this on my Gretsch. This video is a real great inspiration, what a sound! Lapsteel is new for me, I am a guitarst with artrosis in my hands, so I hope lapsteel is my happy future!

[@mcdee56]

Spot-on maureen wilson! I'm 66 and still cooking with my "stable of axes!" LOL

[@blossomingpoot044]

0:34 - 1:04 is the most beautiful little clip I've ever heard. And if you're asking, no, I'm definitely not crying.

[@AndySalinger33]

Dude, yes. He’s a master! 🕊

[@darrenpugh8919]

this is possibly the most beautiful thing i have ever heard

[@chucklambert7283]

i could not agree more

[@stevehughes1510]

It's scary how you get all the melodical nuances of Neils voice in this one.

[@loisclark5373]

I could listen to this slow and easy sound for hours. Thank you for sharing.

[@andrewdavies6273]

Lois Clark absolutely beautiful...

[@beemelonhead1]

I clicked thinking I was going to hear a Nick Drake song (Harvest Breed) on pedal steel... not disappointed tho, this is one of my fave Neil songs.

[@missglorymssquirrel5520]

I could listen to Luke all day long. He can sure play that Dusenberg 🤩

[@jaimejbp]

Canadian Neil Young composer would be proud. Thanks.

[@wodenoftheangles3339]

What about the American Neil too?

[@Roguemusic59]

As a long time guitar player just entering the world of lap steel, this is beyond just inspiring. I am blown away. Thank you so much for sharing this.

[@joeyalbertson2125]

Wonderfully nuanced. This should be cited as an example of playing with "feel"...making the instrument speak - even when it emulates vocal lines, but in a more angelic, choral way.

[@jackdavis3116]

Luke, you are the absolute best lap steel player I have ever heard. your suttle transitions, tonal qualities and absolute mastery of the palm benders add a beautiful dimension to your music. From your first string strike one is pulled inexorably into a musical magic place. You are unique on the lap steel and I particularly enjoy the sounds from the Duesenberg. I love all of your songs and am a dedicated fan of your music.

[@mark2designs607]

Buried my father today. He was my best friend. On my way home from the national cemetery I opened one of your videos and listened. That smooth, baleful sound was just what I needed.

[@faisaldhariwal1510]

Oh my god. It was the same for me man. Lots of love and hope you're working through it

[@michaelclark4175]

I often think, when listening to this, that being able to do what Luke does here would make you know for sure that your life was not in vain. Thanks Luke for making the world a brighter place.

[@lukecyrus]

Thank you for your kind words!

[@charlottefreebairn1228]

Thank you for existing

[@jeffh123]

5yrs later I still have this song in my likes and pull out every once in awhile to listen to. Great job!! I wish it went on for like 20mins instead of having to keep replaying 😉

[@elrico1364]

The effects of this have shown me a place in my heart that I never even knew existed.

[@eduspeed]

Amazingly beautiful version of a great song, the little bend between 0:26 and 0:29 just melts my heart.

[@garyha2650]

Took 60 years for it to dawn on me that this instrument is one my favorites sounds in the whole world

[@marinalewis4798]

Absolutely 💯

[@andrewblue8509]

I don’t have anything nice enough to say. Outstanding playing. Great job!

[@Powerharp62]

I can’t get enough of this tune. Absolutely love your playing.

[@MrPatdeeee]

Luke has got to be one of THE greatest SG players. I'm 90 yrs old; and I am into Steel Guitar and Pedal Steel Guitar to the "nth" degree for 75 yrs. And I have seen VERY few players that are in the "Talent Extraordinaire" echelon as Luke is. He knocks me out; with his "so easy" looking "playing"; that few could ever do. Thank you Luke. NONE Finer.

[@DaveDexterMusic]

It's been years since I've been so inspired to try a new style. This is truly gorgeous playing.

[@Sunflower-ug3ub]

I want to say that I listened once and couldn't believe it...so I listened again and now I'm crying...because its so beautiful.. And I just love how you care for those strings...I'm just floored..its just wonderful, fantastically awesome.. What a sparkle in my eardrums...its so good I can't brag enough for you. I'm sorry I didn't find this sooner ..I thought all the good music making days were gone for sure..but not now Thank you for your amazing talent sir..

[@waynek7154]

Oh yeah. Beautiful

[@cybrpypr]

I absolutely love your playing on this song. My family just discovered you yesterday and we watched HOURS straight of all of your lap steel videos. Your a phenominal player and I wish you all the success. I've been inspired by you to buy my first instrument and learn to play. (Frankfort, Kentucky)

[@davebroad642]

Al Perkins on "Torn and frayed" got me into pedal steel.

[@randyosgood4729]

That was really nice.

[@strvenoconnell4061]

That was great, this guy sure knows how to pull the sound out of that thing.

[@donnacasey4255]

I love this. I love also that you aren't using picks. I just got a new steel and am switching to this tuning. G B D F♯ A D (Bob P. Lee, tuning usually called “D over G”). Can't wait to figure out what all you are doing there. I've got the basic DGA stuff but still haven't put my benders on this steel, so I'm using slants for some of that iconic melody.

[@patzyterps7044]

I’m in awe ❤

[@helensmith9153]

Music to my ears. My husband played the pedal Steel but also had a lap steel. God rest his beautiful musical soul.

[@dalebaker959]

Pure bliss

[@cierakitty]

I just bought a steel lap, and boy am I excited. Yes, I got amp. and headphones so as not to annoy neighbors lol. Luke...I will be thrilled...if I can learn to play half as good and you...I loved this...thank you sir.
