Tommy Emmanuel - Keep it Simple

[Noogaiify]

Although I agree that this song sounds a bit like Angelina it's actually the other way around since Keep it Simple first came out on the album "The Journey Continues" in 1993 and Angelina first came out on the album "Endless Road" 2004 :)

i can hear angelina in this song

[MontyBLARG]

i like how almost every recording for each of his songs is just slightly different

[mrgbee]

@MontyBLARG ive never heard 2 simulare performenses:P

[youdave1234584]

oh god every Tommy's songs are crazy awesome. He should be a world star!

[vipers60]

he is.

[An33t]

if this is simple i wonder how keep it complicated will be like

[alonzopp]

@An33t

great

[1AussieAvenger1]

one of the best ever. Tommy doesn't just play guitar. he makes it sing to you, telling a passionate story with strings and fingers as he plays with ease. ive been watching Tommy for 3 decades now and he is the best acoustic player available in the world bar none.

[Batman001]

He's using a flat pick

How insane, this song is very difficult to make flow with a thumb pick.

Well played.

5/5

[MediaFan00]

anyone know what tuning he's using? I thought it was standard tuning (E,A,D,G,B,E) but thanks to this video, I see he's capo-ed on the 2nd fret so obviously he's using a different tuning. I hope someone can help me

[bigjeanguy]

this tune is in standard tuning..he's simply capo-ed on 2 fret here....but it is uusally played without a capo...

[MediaFan00]

Thank you BigJeanGuy. I thought it was standard tuning. I'm trying to figure this song out but the capo on the 2nd fret threw me off.

[noelmeehan]

@MediaFan00 Why on earth if the capo is on the second fret so it should be a different tuning? o_O This is played with capo on 2nd fret in standard tuning.

[unlimitede1]

@MediaFan00

Drop D tune with capo on 2nd fret ;)

Cheers Mate

[Batman001]

Reminds me a bit of Angelina

[marshmelow]

wow a one on one with Tommy...like having tea with the beatles...priceless

[J0sA1Ac]

=(, its not simple to play.

Beautiful melody.

Anyone seen him play this song live?

[Tomutaa]

It s to hard for Tommy to keep it simple..:)

[Finkaa666]

Typ jest tak nudny, że gdy słuchałam płyty, myślałam, że usnę... A walić w gitarę ręką to każdy głupi wg rytmu potrafi. Mój przyjaciel nauczyl się grac w jeden dzien tych utworków chociaz gra na gitarze od niedawna. Nie ma sie czym podniecać. Nie rozumiem tych, którzy chodza na koncerty Emmanuela - wolę ponudzić się w domu...

[HiFiVibe]

zazdrosny hyba...pokasz yak ty grasz

[musztarda00]

He said - It's very big pig ;)

[wraily]

Hehe.. Funny! In danish the word pick (just without the c) means penis! A very big pick:D

[gianno120992]

Very nice, one of Tommys most underrated songs if you ask me. Beautiful melody.
