i listened to your album. wow-! thanks 4 writing me. I think your fabulous-i wish more people knew how talented you were. i put u on my f//b....ur a true musician!!!
You did a great job, Michael! Loved the song and loved how you delivered it. I've listened to your rendition several times already and have bookmarked it in my Favorites. I live in Austin too and hope to see and hear you and your group in one of the venues around town. I think I'll pick up your debut album, Judge's Hill, also!
OMFG, u r good, very good out of all the others whos tried to sing this song. Its almost like u worte this song n u wanted 2 let others know about it . I know, I know Paul wrote n sang this song. but I think u r up there with him, excellent...keep it up
Hey pretty good job, except The second chord in the chorus is wrong. The tuning is 440 and the capo is on the 2nd fret not the 3rd. I know because Paul Simon himself showed me how to play the song at a private party. Rock On"
It's just in Drop D tuning with what looks like a capo on the 3rd fret. 440 hz simply means that the guitar is in standard tuning and not slightly sharp or flat. 440 is the A above middle C. The guitar is a percussion instrument and is tuned like a piano, i.e. turning of strings. It is essentially in the same key as the piano, "any key".
Too bad the camera angles suck, I wanted to learn the song and most of the time I see his mouth or his feet moving when all I wanted to see was the chords, should've just had it at one angle the whole video in my opinion, then I'd probably have a better idea on how to play it. Post a video on how to play it and then I'll give you props for that man. But what do I know, I'm just another critic. Good song, and you did play it well.
great performance! i couldnt help but to sing along with that... you knowing that song could take you a long way with the ladies but make sure you take your krodachrome.
I was so moved and delighted by this sweet performance that my eyes teared up. But, I am a 47 yr old woman. If I were 30 yrs. younger I'd want to kiss on you. I hope the grrrls ARE after you.
I am just starting to learn this song. I had never heard the song and am liking it more and more as I play and hear it. Was nice to see your version of it. I thought it was great! Just wish I could know the strum pattern you are using. Aweseome job!
Nice, but you could use more cinfidence while singing it and add more passion! :D And remember, you missed a couple of the tremolos he does! Besides that, AWESOME!
good job. refreshing to hear. Paul Simon rules, and he's one of my favourite songwriters. Thanks, much more original than all other music crap on youtube.
Im not trying to blow up ur Youtube but - HOW R U NOT FAMOUS.. Whatever ur doing please sotop & write another album.

Hi, what is 440 tuning? I searched for it and only found 440 Hz for the "A" above middle "C", which is apparently the standard.
