I really like lessons where the host plays the song first, then teaches and explains.

[@Sportingalagrieska]

Yes, that's the main reason why I only follow justin lessons cause they're very well structured.

[@Rimjohn]

Someone's said this before but really i click most of your videos for the cover these days. You've really grown/improved as a singer and it is obvious to all of us. The most charismatic and efficient teacher on the internet. Rock on Justin🤙

[@45zapatero]

Sounds great. Never thought about this song as an acoustic song but your cover shows this works very well !

[@JustinGuitarSongs]

Not bad eh! Cheers mate :)

[@dontassumemyfender9866]

I can not believe it. I was driving home from work and this came on a random playlist I was listening to. Not heard it in ages and thought this would be a good one to learn. And here it is tought by the grandmaster himself!

[@stevehughes240]

This is the third song I've learnt from you this week! Best teacher out there by miles!!!

[@boynamedlen]

I remember seeing them live a long time ago, the audience kept singing the la-la-la bit for at least 5 minutes after the band had stopped playing. Great lesson as always!

[@gordoncooke4527]

I love when I get a song in my head, search it and your videos pop up.

[@hakankillberg6043]

Thanks this is amazing. I do miss this era of the great arena rock bands such as U2, Simple Minds etc. All thoose beautiful songs with strong melodies and great lyrics. I hope one day the sweet melodies combined with that huge rock sounds will come back.

[@josephodonnell8649]

Justin what a song and from my hometown of Glasgow Simple Minds too..well done and your voice has improved so much too

[@JustinGuitarSongs]

thank you very much :)

[@opalivy739]

Justin I love your lessons and I love the way you teach and break it down. Never thought of this song all these years in an acoustic version. The tone is clear and sounds great on acoustic guitar. Thanks for uploading another great classic song. ✌🏾✌🏾❤️

[@JustinGuitarSongs]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@TFShaw]

Love this lesson Justin and I wanna see this video archive! Don't be embarrassed, we all love you!

[@nono60josselin39]

Génial, super tuto 😊😉

[@giangiogiangio3212]

You are the best guitar teachers on the web.thanks a lot Justin

[@stevenclark6662]

Hey Justin, great as always.. one 'humble suggestion'... on the chorus, with that Open E.. try hitting the D-voicing of the E on the 4th fret - then the A-voicing of the D on the 5th.. between "Don't you"...... E... D.... "Forget about -A"... really helps accentuate the keyboard hook.. Thanks again for all you do

[@vangelisevangeloufriends8785]

Without a doubt the man is number one globally. Go go Justin

[@chrissnape9537]

Thanks, Justin. I have a 40-year class reunion. The Friday night is a BBQ, and my buddy, the host, picked up guitar when I did, but we have never played together due to the pandemic. This will be a good one to play together, and hopefully, the people know the words. 👍

[@HOUSEDOMEFUNKofficial]

just forwarded the link to my "kid" brother (turning 50, myself) for more or less the same reason- call it a family reunion- he's played in a number of bands, but I've just re-started after 35 years off ;-P

[@RJGuitarist2003]

You are truly awesome Justin 😊🎸💯💙 You taught me my first scale and now this song God bless you bro 🎸😊

[@davidalder6558]

Thank you Justin for another fun song. You make is look like so much fun with your improv lyrics about note changes. Keep up the fantastic work. You bring joy to all of us. Dave

Would have never thought to try this as acoustic but you nailed it man. It really is all about that timing too. And love the singing of the “chords”! Thanks so much.

[@martinuglow116]

You are blessed with a great ability to teach. Together with your enthusiasm. Love the instructions played to the chords. Cheers. Martin. Forever grateful.

[@lucasargandona4658]

I remember I tried to learn this song with you way back when I was learning guitar. Good times ☺️👍

[@quars3528]

Clear and straight, as usual. BEST.

[@theminister1154]

Thanks for a good cover song idea. If any of you want to take it a bit beyond strumming, it occurs to me *this is a very good song for whole guitar legato.* Hit a big fat chord like the open D here, let it ring, & shake the guitar in time. Single, double, quad, whatever you can manage. You'll need a good grip on the neck, & a strap helps. As does holding an electric up by the amp, but it definitely works with acousitc too. You'll get some vibrato along with the legato (the shaking moves your fingers on the fretboard.) Watch good rhythm players, many do whole guitar legato all the time. Typically just a couple shakes, but it really makes your playing stand out. For maximum effect play your electric up by the amp & lean forward so it swings free on the strap. BTW you mostly shake the fretting hand, though you can use the other hand on the rump of the guitar too.

[@DarinRamsay]

That’s the song we played as we walked out of our high school graduation. Great memories. Thx @JustinGuitar

[@jeroentromp7097]

Hey Justin, your're not only a talented guitarplayer, but also a very good singer🙂!! Keep up the good work mate!!

Love this, just learning how to play all these chords and change between them, had 6 guitar lessons but watching this has given me some confidence that I might be able to play a song one day once I can play the C ha!

My baby by Cold Chisel lesson please such a great song

[@xlp3t3r]

Hey Justin, far be it from me to critique your playing because you are the man, but it’s an Em on the intro. I’ve been playing this song for years with my band and an Em minor or 12 fret harmonic bar is definitely correct.
