Impossible Story - Brooke Miller

Brooke Miller and her Sitka/Indian Rosewood G2 (2006). This guitar has been travelling the globe for a decade now, bringing joy and the gift of Brooke's music to many. It's always nice when "the kids come home to visit"!
As usual, you are listening to the artist and guitar in the bench room of my workshop. Live, off the floor. There are no pickups being used. The sound is pure. Please share this video, tell your friends, spread the love and please support live music! Enjoy!
Information about the G2 model played in this video, as well as my all of my custom order guitars, is available on my website at www.greenfieldguitars.com
The Bench Room Series of videos are recorded by Tom MacDonald of Flicomedia. The guitar was recorded by a KM-184 and an AK47 style tube mic, into a digi 02. The most important part was a great performance by a brilliant artist in a great sounding room.

This recording is perfect. It would make my “desert island” list. It’s better every time I listen.

[@rachelpeckham3462]

Greenfield Guitars sound like clouds that Angels walk upon. With this performance, we even get an angelic voice to accompany this god like guitar. This is what the afterlife sounds like.

[@darban2924]

lyrics I know there was a light between our ebb and flow And now my shoulders shift to find a groove inside a slower tempo We had to get it wrong before we got it right Acting on our best behaviour Our colours change in a different lifetime Chorus: It's an impossible book In an impossible place Impossible story It'll take your breath away The moment you look up everything is overhead Little hopes can be a bastard Sharp fingernails down the back of your neck Bridge: You made it painfully clear Only a fool would confess That you didn't learn a thing Through all of this mess But what good is a mistake If you don't learn that only a fool wouldn't let it rest

[@jameswilliamjones]

Screenshotted her from the guitar build video and here I am. What a magnetic performance.

[@benjic80]

I come back and listen to Brooke at least once a week. In a world full of models and autotune, this washes all that away. My favourite artist for a long time now. Why she isn't a global success is beyond me. As long as she is happy and makes ends meet, why have all that bullshit. Thanks for the beautiful music.

[@jaybranch183]

This, my friends, is real music. In its basic and most simply beautiful form. Love it. New favorite artist. Great recording on a great guitar of a piece that was written and played by an absolutely incredibly talented artist. Brooke's music should be much more widely recognized and appreciated. Get the word out to all your friends. Please send a link of this to everyone.

[@thedynamicsolo4232]

I bought a few of her songs off Itunes, it seems this is one I missed. Seriously one really under appreciated and under marketed artists in Canada and America. Greenfield Guitars really has stunningly fine acoustics in the workshop!!! Thanks Brooke for a gentle and easy river to get lost on.

[@Johnny_Ledford]

Wondering how many guitar players made it to this video after hearing it on the Amazon guitar making special. 🤘🏻

[@MrCeo1978buddy]

The guitar making documentary brought me here love it

[@kob8634]

Such a gift of talent, so diligently honed, to pop out of a soul is something to behold. Such hand strength and string control, awash in tone and harmonics; it's not 'playing' -- folk like Brooke elevate the instrument to a magical level where it muses along with nuance of words and meaning.

[@MichaelChapdelaineofficial]

Brooke, your musical soul is as big as Canada and maybe even more poignant. Thank you for mining, harvesting and sharing it with the world through your incredible voices.

[@Wally2Feathers]

Just close your eyes and let your soul fly, what a wonderful song. Beautifully played and sang.

[@johngreenwood1972]

Is there anything in this world better than Brooke Miller?

[@lunatic-fringe]

What you've managed to accomplish with your avatar and the sound of your soul is amazing! ❤ please upload this acoustic version to Apple music so I can turn my phone off and close my eyes and really enjoy it the way it's supposed to be. Thanks.

[@davidlloydmusic1953]

These recordings at Greenfield are sublime. The innovative songwriter, guitar mastery and awesome tone of this Greenfield guitars are a benchmark to us all. Terrific performances Brooke Miller. You are so talented and deserve world recognition.

[@RADThird1]

I love the electric version of this song but I may love this acoustic performance even more! So good.

[@littlejohnny4470]

Brooke reminds me of another beautiful woman I use to know, Diana Bates from Harrisburg PA. I miss you a lot!

[@KRASIPARVANOV]

Brilliant! I can listen to this guitar and this voice 100 times...

[@RaeZoladawn777]

The best artistic expressions come from the darkest light...we just are privileged enough to shine a light on our way home .

[@saleembassadien7144]

No matter how many times I come back... it remains the perfect acoustic performance.

[@JaimeHammett]

Love the tone, love the guitar, love Brooke's song...

[@yonaxl]

Her dynamic of guitar playing is so enjoyable. I'm sure the instrument contribute so much to that

[@gillmartinez7918]

Everything about this video is amazing. Thank you for sharing Mr Greenfield. the shop the guitar and Brooke Miller.. Amazing.

[@abrahamcorreiacortez8631]

Just subscribed so I can find absolute awesome musics like this one, I can't even play guitars

[@williamdelbe4459]

Formidable feeling. 😀

[@davidlloydmusic1953]

Thank you Brooke and Greenfield . Perfect heaven!

[@fidelmusau4518]

Brilliant, this what happens when such a great guitar meets a great talent

[@TerryPosthumusAnimation]

Gorgeous...all around gorgeous! Congrats, Brooke!

[@Sovereign_Citizen_LEO]

Brooke is an incredibly talented artist, and that guitar sounds amazing (depth of resonance).

[@chrisdavison7569]

This has to be one of the best recorded acoustic guitar sounds ever... Such bass but not boomy at all... a perfect balance, cranked up on headphones it sounds ridiculous! Love it. Can anyone tell me what tuning this is in, and what strings Brooke is using, she seems to hit the guitar pretty hard at times, but with no flubbyness to the low strings...? Awesome, just awesome!

[@Conqoo]

I second that. Actually I`m listening to it with my headphones cranked up right now!

[@rileyboschman6064]

Chris Davison it sounds like drop D tuning to me

[@avielkharrat5788]

D on the 6th string. Every other string is standard tuning

[@rbagel55]

I agree with you. It must be the quality of instrument she is playing. Greenfield guitars are not sold in music stores I know of. Would love to test drive one for myself

[@pickerdad8402]

Incomparable performance, magnificent instrument, and brilliant recording, the Trifecta. Thanks for the suggestion, on headphones the stereo quality and roominess is amazing. rbagel55, I agree. Gotta check out Greenfield guitars.

[@TheSolarsen]

I love you voice and you guitar plaing ,Thanks from Lars from Denmark

[@avielkharrat5788]

Hi Michael and Brooke, Will you consider releasing these "Brooke at Michael's" sessions on an album? They are truly amazing!

[@seanbierbower3440]

Impossibly good guitar tone. Impossibly good song. Beautiful voice. I always come back to listen to this over and over. Just amazing.

[@peterswanton9523]

Where can I get some more of this music. Brooke you leave me speechless with your talent and beauty. It takes my breath away. Thanks for posting Mr. Greenfield I have missed her .

[@benjic80]

Bit of a late reply, but cheak out candyrat records. Brooke and many amazing acoustic artists can be found there. Peace.

[@nicolaausten6758]

To the nine thumbs down, without prejudice, there is still time, look inside your heart and find love and light. X

[@just_m132]

This is a piece of Heaven . Thanks Michael and Brooke. Hi from Algeria.

[@gregmirr]

Sometimes i just have to listen to Brooke and be re-amazed at her talent ..so good.

[@demetriusmota9613]

Amo a sua voz, a sua música... composicão extraordinária em voz e harmonia...

[@rbagel55]

Love your music Brooke, I listen to it when I want to relax, it is very good for that. And that Greenfield guitar you are playing sounds wonderful, I am going to have to learn more about Mike Greenfield. Don't see them in music stores, but you can hear the quality of the instrument in this recording

[@torontolarrivee7965]

That guitar sounds absolutely amazing

[@bubbyhardy6135]

That guitar sounds absolutely amazing. As does ms. Brooke. My JBL headphones make it sound so full and rich. Perfection!! You build a very nice instrument sir!

Love this. Thank you.

[@mrdibbles22]

I can't stop playing this song, my favourite i've heard for a while. Real soulful music, very beautiful! When i play it on the guitar i can feel the exact place you plucked it from running through me, like @Michael Chapdelaine says thanks so much for catching it and getting it down for us to all listen too!

[@gerden238]

Magnifique !

[@Rich915]

Nice...!

[@RemoSforza]

Amazing

[@aigor9668]

i'm in love

[@david8157]

wow she is so good

[@micheldesousa2590]

Bravo madame.

[@Last_one_before_I_go]

Would love to see her put out a purely acoustic album. She delivers the goods superbly, all alone.

[@RADThird1]

Look for her album "Familiar" just Brooke and her Greenfields with an assist or two from Don Ross. Recorded in Germany. Worth every penny if you can find it. Also her EP brookemiller.bandcamp.com/album/impossible-story with these songs from this Bench Room session done in studio. Again all acoustic.

[@Miarchieve]

I finally get to hear music into closely . I have heard your name a lot with don ross and has been interested since that time in your art . I’ll do exploring the world of your music from now. Thank you for sharing good music . (Guitar Sound is absolutely brilliant I catched . I’ll have to get greenfield guitar) And I do upload some guitar video as well . I’ll do it at least one film weekly Have a nice day:)

[@davegellett1954]

What model is this? I'd love a G4 but don't ever see me being able to afford one. Michael Greenfield sir you are a genius

[@rbagel55]

Quality like this don't come cheap. If I was a touring musician musician I'd consider buying one, but I'm just an old fart from the South who likes to make a litttle noise with my beer buddies on the weekend, so I best stick with my beat up Ibanez !

[@claudelarosa3378]

Magnifique ,Jeu de guitare d'une tres grande personnalité (un peu comme la regréé chanteuse Grecque Angelique Ionatos ) Dans un autre registre bien sur. la Quête de l'épure de " l'essen-Ciel " Merci ,pour vos notes .quelques dates en France ce serait bien ......

[@RADThird1]

Brooke has an EP of these songs available on Bandcamp. Mostly acoustic. brookemiller.bandcamp.com/album/impossible-story Get It!

[@semgujadhur9323]

truly a masterpiece... anyone know where i can find tabs for this?

[@xw2694]

Id like to know too

[@RADThird1]

Well this is a little late of a reply but if you go to: chordify.net/ you can type "Brooke Miller Impossible Story" into the search box and you will see this video come up at the top of the list. Click on it and Chordify will show you the chords so you may play along with the vid. I do this often...it's a great song.

[@MarttiSuomivuori]
