How To Play "These Waters" By Ben Howard (guitar lesson / tutorial)

[@DarkKnightCap]

FML. I found this 9yrs later! Incredible brother. Perhaps the greatest song no one has heard?

[@joshmclafferty7192]

Can't thank you enough for spending all that time putting this together. I could only imagine the work that went into it. You are a very talented musician, keep it up, the world needs more of you. Thanks again for doing this, I have been working hard at it and could not be anywhere close without your help. Cheers from Canada.

[@Raven2702]

Thank you very much Josh, glad I could help you :)

[@Raven2702]

It's because of comments like yours I did this. I know a lot of people will be happy to have this help and that motivates me doing tutorials. I think my next one is going to be empty corridors. :) Happy learning :)

[@joek1890]

Hey I don’t know if you’ll ever see this but you basically taught me how to play guitar, thank you.

[@kris130186]

awesome lesson, im a native of England and your English is perfect, no mistakes at all!

[@michaellorenzo6004]

I really can't tell you enough how much I appreciate all these tutorials! I've learned so many Ben Howard songs through these. Thank you so much for doing them!

[@DrChristianConte]

That’s so incredibly impressive! Thank you for doing this. Much peace! 🙏🏼

[@DannyLoef1]

Yeah, well I'll put one like yours on my wanted list... with a little break because I had some gigs, I almost have this song down. Back here for the solo part.. so thanks again!

[@yohannbourgault1010]

My god ! You've made such a good job ! I'm not as good as you but I think I know what you feel when you explain how to play the solo but that you can't play it. HOW FRUSTRATING when your head knows but when your body can't ! I guess every music player knows that feeling.

[@Tarfyen2]

My hands hurt :D . I kept on practicing for days with slow progress, but at least there is some. It is my first percussive song i learn on guitar. Thanks to you i am able to learn this song.

[@BradenSteinhorst]

I appreciate you saying “I’m sure you’re gonna make it”

[@SpillzEU]

One of the best tutorials I've seen, really talented man!

[@Raven2702]

Thank you very much, I'm glad you like it!

[@H0rtOn89]

You have my thubs up for a great tutorial. Nice job of beaking it down and explaining it. I'll use it to try and learn this song. Personally I think it's one of Ben Howards best songs.

[@nathanschmidt4386]

Hey man, this is amazing work! Thank you so much for putting in the time to make this video. It really helped!

[@amac8487]

[@JoshUR95]

I havnt even started watching the video yet but I know its going to be great :) Thanks for making this tutorial and all the hard work you put into learning and filming the vid, much appreciated :) Keep it up!

[@Raven2702]

Right you are. It was really frustrating, but now I can play it without any difficulties. It's just a matter of practice and training.

[@UtillaUtillaUtilla]

:-) spend yesterday all evening playing this. Excellent tutorial again. Thank you again! Pepijn (so now on to you other tutorials, keep them coming!)

[@AhoyCapnLinux]

Incredible tutorial, very well spoken and well demonstrated. Thank you!

[@bryanenglish5503]

Great tutorial man! I was able to learn most of it in two nights. The only thing differently I did was I tuned it as C G C G C D. I think it sounds more like his performances. Give it a shot, sounds nice to me. Keep up the work man

[@tomcarlick6738]

thank you so much for the time and effort you put in. it was very helpful and easy to understand

[@Mr.February]

Best tutorial ever!!! Thank you for all your hard work.

[@DannyLoef1]

This is some amazing work, thanks so much! And your guitar looks rather awesome as well! I have a 4 series taylor, so I better start saving!

[@monikabaryah9030]

No worries, I'm looking forward to "Empty Corridors" as well. If you ever give "Games in the dark" a try and you happen to like it, please share some tips how to get started on that song. In the meantime I'll work on the other songs you teach. Keep up the good job, I'm a fan!!! :)

[@Raven2702]

First of all thank you for your comment! Due to my rare spare time I can hardly finish my tutorial for "Empty Corridors" and next in row will be "Twilight". In case I find the time to do that song it will defently not be within the next few months, sorry.

[@SaraPoolman]

This is amazing work, thank you so much for putting the time and effort into it. Just need the skill to go with it too! Shame I don't have a one-on-one tutor like you ;)

[@michael67612]

ur an absolute legend bud

[@Raven2702]

Thank you very much for your kind comment :) I just love my Taylor! The 4 series Taylor is also very nice to play, almost bought one myself... but then I found this one:)

[@Raven2702]

Yes, I figured that out by myself, thank you very much :) Hope it helped you learning this song! :)

[@barneywimbush6080]

Dude this is excellent, It's a pretty difficult song to learn but you demonstrate it perfectly. 5*

[@elshuffles]

mate - well done on this video - marathon session!! Nice and accurate.

[@leeburton1986]

This is epic! Wish I had to talent to follow it. I got the into down haha.

[@connorscott7166]

[@Wissseta]

You're an amazing person. :D The tutorial is truly spectacular.

[@mannyandhisbike]

Good job bro! Keep up the good work.

[@Raven2702]

Thank you! I'm already on it! Empty corridors is coming up the next two or three weeks, depending on my workload :)

[@TakingBackScott]

Hi there! Would it be possible to list the different parts of the tutorial in your intro? eg. intro: 2.30 verse 4.50 or whatever. thanks! would be really helpful when coming back to this video.

[@Auselan]

vielen Dank, Raphi. man kann diese Lieder schneller lernen mit deiner Hilfe!

[@sandville]

you are amazing boy !! ;-) and thank you cause I love this song

[@monikabaryah9030]

could you make a tutorial for ben howard "games in the dark" please? your videos are amazing, a great help to learn, and that song is on my mind!

[@cristiancorrea7289]

my fingeeeeersssss!!! p.s.: oh yeah, and thanks for the tutorial. It's really the best one out there.

[@Raven2702]

haha, yeah my fingers did hurt like s*** when I was learning this song :)

[@Bulleguitar25]

Yes I saw (red and yellow flowers ^^) but I speak english badly, I am French then I have difficulty in following everything what you say sometimes but I find that you explains very well every stage of a song... So if you can make it, that would be great!!! Anyway, I have a lot of work with this video :p Thanks again (and sorry for my english)

[@Raven2702]

It's a Taylor 514 CE L10, full Mahagoni, fall 2005 special edition

[@judjeh2o]

You really can get some music out of your fingers man!! Really good!! Xx

[@Megannebrionsheeriospottered]

Hi Raphi, I see that you do tutorial in lap tapping. I'm not very used to this technic. Ziggy Alberts uses this technic in a lot of his songs could you do a tutorial for one of his songs. Thanks a lot. Your tutorial is amazing

[@Rainerwarzecha]

Thanks - great job!

[@Oaksessions]

Awesome Talent!

[@rydemx28]

Can you do a tutorial for all the songs on every kingdom? and also further away?

[@cedonboard57]

Hi guy, thank you for your tuto, I am fan of Ben Howard and you help me to improve my guitar skills ! What is your model guitar ? Thanks ! And continue ! :)

[@surferboyy96]

Mate, did you figure this out? Pretty epic skill man

[@CuraChildren]

Mate you are a very good musician, how long did it take for you to learn this masterpiece? If I want to learn it probably will take me years..

[@Raven2702]

hey, that's a good start so keep on learning it! :)

[@19Takdom]

I would like to learn dept over distance..pleaseeee :D Good job!

[@Spitehound]

Thank you! Very helpful

[@melrhymenoceros]

You're amazing!!

[@TOPHiffee]

great!

[@yohannbourgault1010]

That's good news. :) I'm glad you did it. :) I was wondering : do you know if there is a way to represent this kind of guitar parts because standart guitar parts obviously can't ?

[@OliAshlee]

THANKYOU!!

[@Raven2702]

Thank you, I'm already on Empty Corridors. But I will think about London. :)

[@jimmyjommy8045]

richtig stark!

[@Raven2702]

Ah well, if you mean the part in about minute 14 onwards then I hit just the high two or three strings. No way you can hit them all with your hand still above the body of the guitar! thanks for your comment mate! :)

[@TakingBackScott]

thank you! that would be so helpful. :)

[@bhupikaushal]

Any chance of working out ' in dreams' that intro bit is really Pickeling my head!!

[@MarkosHaas]

Awesome vid!! I think the tuning is CGCGGD

[@saubr551]

cheers bro mean!!

[@Raven2702]

can you give me the minute of the tutorial where i play that?

[@TheKevinChip]

Thank you so much XD

[@Fannywikstrom95]

Man thank you, I LOVE YOU

[@Raven2702]

Done! Check the description box :)

[@Raven2702]

You are welcome my friend! :)

[@Raven2702]

I could drop the times in the description box for you if that helps! :)

[@Raven2702]

Have fun learning it :) I hope I did it justice :)

[@Raven2702]

Thank you very much! :)

[@Raven2702]

wow! thank you very much, sir! :)

[@samamoran]

what did you tune your strings to? great tutorial!!!

[@zacbloseable]

samamoran CGCGCE

[@samamoran]

thanks man! William Blose

[@zacbloseable]

That's from low to high as well

[@Raven2702]

I don't think that's necessary. There are a lot of tutorials about the other songs of Every Kingdom. I think the ones that don't have a tutorial yet are done so far. :)

[@Raven2702]

gern geschehen, das freut mich sehr! :-)

[@PKJowker1]

What guitar is that? I'm looking to buy a Taylor

[@Raven2702]

It's a Taylor 514 CE-L10. Limited Edition Fall 2005

[@Bulleguitar25]

Thank you, very well explained! Then I to propose you "london"? :D

[@indiemuse81]

tuning?

[@Raven2702]

Yes I know that, but actually I'm doing that to help people learn it and not to earn a lot of money with it. So I think it's ok the way it is, but thank you for the advice :)

[@JoshUR95]

Empty corridors would be sweet :)

[@sandville]

:-) yeahh !! so cool ;-)

[@raulhc1995]

which´s the guitar tune?

[@jotoome]

CGCGCE

[@Raven2702]

haha ok, Ill think about it. But first Empty Corridors :) No worries, your english isn't that bad :) I've met some french people a year ago and they spoke badly :-)
