Crosby, Stills & Nash - Helplessly Hoping

[@sbrown1953]

Rainy morning after some very sad news, but listening to this beautiful music gives me hope that things will be better… Thank you.

[@leevahal900]

Not if you really listen to the words

[@kearneydillon4803]

You sir are what I call "a spreader of peace". I love the fluidity, grace and taste in every note you play. Plus your tone/mic combo is perfect. Anything different is not a shift up, but sideways.

[@Andrew-kg9yo]

Beautiful… I’m not crying, your crying!

[@jacobbeckstrand6764]

I wish you had a Spotify channel. Your music is beautiful and deserves to be published far and wide

[@bveracka]

Unfortunately I think he'd have to get copyright licenses for all of his cover songs though, which of course costs more money than he'd likely make on Spotify. On the other hand, if you check KZbin Music, he might be on there.

[@MountatinMusic0]

@@bveracka the copyright wouldn't cost much. using DistroKid he would be looking at around a $3 per cover song per year charge to upload his "copyright" music to all streaming platforms and Distrokid would distribute the copyright costs from the $3. no money taken from the stream/listen monetization unless it got top chart streams and even then they only take a small percentage off that number. this has been my experience at least

[@jerrysedars8097]

One of the most beautiful renditions of this iconic song! Thank you for sharing!

[@debbieharvey7945]

It't. Melt. My. Heart. To. Hear. Music. Like. This. Wonderful. Thanks. ❤️

[@halperez2643]

I keep coming back to listen to this one. Never get tired of it.

[@davidluke4082]

Back for my daily listen. I can't get enough of this. Just incredible.

[@cierakitty]

As a beginner....you have inspired me...even though I know I will never reach the level you are at.....I will still try my best.

[@NYNick49]

Beautiful, as usual!! Thank you for posting!!

[@tonyt7372]

Always puts a smile on my face when hear this. Love the song.

[@antiskeletor]

I don't know how many times i've seen this . I love it

[@Cliffdiver]

I shed a tear at 4am listening to this. My father was an excellent guitarist and a huge CSN fan and I can imagine him playing the acoustic part on his old Guild. Your rendition, production and tones are amazing. Very beautiful.

[@rafah9696]

OUTSTANDING!!!! BRAVO!!!! BRAVO!!!!

[@raybrown8887]

stunning interpretation of one of the most beautiful songs ever written, well done

[@sameasnow]

this fuckin song makes me tear up, what a great rendition.

[@deborahchesser7375]

It does, that thing cries doesn’t it.

[@TheHonudiver]

That is beautiful!

[@Thegroverjones]

Wow! That was fantastic. Thanks for taking the time to share the vid. Much appreciated

[@maxrobespierre884]

I'd love to hear your take on Teach Your Children.

[@costa1434]

hopefully. I'd like as well

[@bambledaczymbledek]

Elegant, restrained, all of the lyrical content of the song in the instrumental -dang.

[@ChadwickRider]

Probably my all-time favorite song, hands-down. My dad listened to it a lot when I was a child, reminds me of him. This was great Luke!

[@prenticetyndall4066]

A great rendition of my all time favorite CSN song

[@dankemarx8125]

Good job Sir! It sounds very good! I love to play Blues Music on my resonator guitars with bottleneck! All good wishes from Black Forest/Germany!

[@hitsonacousticguitar]

This is sweet

[@ursafan40]

Thank you Mr. Goetze, for sharing your music, and bringing something beautiful into my day.

[@dougalexander7204]

A lifetime ago, CSN kept me company late at night into early morning on the road from Texas back to Springfield with a couple pillow cases full...

[@DennisAnthonis]

Doug Alexander ...Their Deja vu album got me to California on a car trip one weekend. But I gotta say. This guy playing this lap steel is nasty good! I’m wondering what exactly that little tremolo bar does. It sounds like it lowers the pitch?! I was also amazed that he wasn’t using finger picks and still got that sound.

[@jacksonweinberg3544]

@@DennisAnthonis it bends the strings like a normal guitarist would bend his strings

[@arlingtonhynes]

bling bling boy No. They (there’s two) bend the strings like the pedals on a pedal steel guitar bend the strings.

[@carpballet]

@@jacksonweinberg3544 Why would you say that?

[@woodstoney]

Really sweetly played! Brings back so many great memories of times past. Thanks and keep it going!

[@pml394]

lovely ! I'm always happy when Luke Cyrus Goetze uploads his mastery

[@gavincamp150]

P ML seriously!

[@pml394]

in one word . YES ! :The way he plays the slide guitar is pure magic and performed so skillful it sounds easy effortless- the haunting sound of his slide guitar carries a lot of emotion. This is real musicianship .So happy I found his channel and i'm always looking forward to a new vid from him

[@meursault7030]

Maybe my favorite CSN song. Gorgeous cover.

[@rfdsrd]

Nothing short of pure Awesome.

[@josephcapra8484]

Best cover of this song I've heard. Im sure CSN would like it

[@Kresnov]

Simply Stunning.

[@dalebaker959]

Just beautiful!

[@flgator311]

Beautiful picking, thanks.

[@JpeterZoom-gt3pn]

when I went to the usa back in the 90s I heard a lot of this guitar floating across the air waves on california radio

[@karst41]

sonic bliss needed for my ears. Thank you

[@petnatcar]

Bellissimo ! I would listen to these guys in the Army in Germany in 1970.

[@JamesDoran-r5i]

[@Beemerboy324]

I was falling through the KZbin rabbit hole, you know like you do, and just clicked on this not knowing who it was. As soon as I heard it, I knew it had to be Luke. Schöne Musik, mein Freund!

You’ve inspired to pick up the lapsteel. Here’s to the journey ahead. Thank you my guy, my band and I will be playing some major festivals next year including john Hartford and maybe I’ll have my morrell ready by then in good standing for a smooth solo. One day however, a Duesenberg will lay at my lap.

[@8triagrammer]

Me too, just bought one. I wish he'd write which tunings he uses in the description...
