This is the first video I have seen that finally addressed all the ad-libing, or "noodling" as you call it, in this song, instead of just the chords. THANKS!

[@LetsPlayAll]

Aiming Wanderously hey! Thanks for the kind feedback mate, appreciate it! This was a request from a Patreon and I must admit I wasn’t too familiar with it, but I love getting all the details out, it always helps me get a better appreciation of the song. Glad you like it 😊🤘

[@martinsteiger5039]

[@LetsPlayAll]

You’re welcome buddy! 😊

[@LetsPlayAll]

Thanks Blade! Yea it’s a blast from the past! Haha don’t worry I’ve got plants of lessons where I make it look way harder than it is 🤘😀

[@betsygekak4162]

[@LetsPlayAll]

Hi Matt, great lesson, one of my favorite songs. Greetings from Italy

I remember I got this music cassette called Grunge Rock in the nineties with this one on it, fell in love with the song first time I heard it.

[@TheRodolfoVideos]

Didn't knew this song, I'll give it a listen

[@LetsPlayAll]

Cool! It's an old classic that raised awareness of runaway kids and teenagers and the video actually featured missing kids. Some were found as a direct result of them being in the band's vid apparently

That Suhr in the back 😍

[@LetsPlayAll]

Thanks Kevin, such lovely guitars!

[@IDGAF_PLUS]

I was checking to see if you had any Screaming Trees on your site and ran across this...nice one! And just to distract the hell out of me there's that freaking gorgeous powder blue Suhr again that mesmerizes me every time!

[@LetsPlayAll]

Haha just don't look directly at it mate, it'll have you spellbound in no time!

[@KowboyUSA]

Cool song and lesson!

[@LetsPlayAll]

Thanks Kowboy! 🤘😀

Música do novo filme. Som da liberdade.

Hello buddy, I just came across your video on KZbin. I was looking for no surprises by Radiohead and I got to say your video is the best one I have seen. Thanks very much for making it simple and clear to understand what you're saying. Too many people get way too technical with theory and completely lose the simplicity they start with. Good see a fellow Brit keeping it real 😂 All the best buddy Oh yeah does your wife sing? Be lovely to see you do a cover together if she does. 😂 Thanks for the videos

[@LetsPlayAll]

Thanks for the kind words mate much appreciated! No duets planned I’m afraid haha

[@P.Jlive2024]

I forgot I knew how to play this it's been so long. Anyway Very Cool Matt. Edit: What kind of Strings do you use. What gauge?

[@LetsPlayAll]

Thanks Chris! I use D’Addario EXP Coated 11s - they last way longer and stay nice and bright so work out a bit cheaper in the long run

[@TAYLORFAN50]

Fantastic! 👍

[@DavidRFIT]

Damn... nice tutorial.

[@LetsPlayAll]

Thanks David!
