[movelikejagger28]

this is complicated

[chippy98221]

yourguitarsage you should do a tutorial on the song we sing in time by the lonely forest the lonely forest is a band from my town in washington and they arent that popular yet but they have a music video on youtube and went on tour with death cab for cutie since they arent that popular yet noone has posted any tutorials so it would be great if you could and make the lonely forest known

[yourguitarsage]

@chippy98221 Hey friend! I wish that I could. I get dozens of requests everyday and just can't get to them all. Check out the free ebook at the bottom left of my channel page

[Sacha06950]

You talkin to much man...

[lilgangstaboy123]

[mosnotdef1]

i like oyu, you teach the whole song

[jeremiah9988]

[chippy98221]

I like your taste in music every song ive ever wanted to play ive found on your channel unfortunately I dont own a capo so i cant play most of them

[ecmatrix]

@chippy98221 all you need is a pencil and 2 rubber bands :)

[malboro2345678]

WHAT DO YOU THINK!

[ldskiba]

[imaginedany]

Who Tha Fuck Doesn't Know Imagine? 

[yourguitarsage]

@imaginedany Apparently you since you are commenting on an Imagine lessons vid!

:)

[MrPoscha]

Hey, great stuff, I'm glad to be connected to guitar sage!

Can you tell us what strumming pattern you're using here? Looks like down/down/down -- then I get lost with an up/down/something??

Thanks!

[amandanoelle101]

i'll be lucky to stay a kid for life! thanks guitar sage- you're the only one who broke this awesome song down in baby language for me;)

[jakewhoskate]

"If a baby had big hands it could play this song!" xD

[WarblingGuitar]

I don't know what it is about you, but you remind me of David Cook.

Oh, and your video helped TREMENDOUSLY :)

[steviecorridor]

Your vid SO helped. i love how right when I said "how do i play that chord" you said "don't worry we will go over it later" haha! vid rocks dude:D thanks

[neenofdee]

CAN YOU PLEASE DO A BLACKBIRD LESSON? WITH THE FINGERPICKING?? PLEASEEE

[mpm111144]

I'm 66, and have been calling people of any and all ages, sex, and sizes "kid" since I was...well...a kid. So did my Dad, and so did my Grandad, and my uncles. I call my wife kid. And my daughter. And my son. As Bogart said in "Casablanca", "Here's looking at you, kid." I'm just curious...how much is that "kid" paying you for these "free" lessons anyway? Just sayin." Love your honesty, and simplicity Eric. Great lessons. Thanks, kid. :D)

[millersname]

you have an amazinnnng voice!

[byzofsumma57]

Will you stop referring to your audience as "kids"? It comes off as very arrogant and condescending. Just sayin'.

[yourguitarsage]

@byzofsumma57 I also call "the kids" cats but I don't actually believe that I am teaching cats :) Just sayin...

[northernsoul55]

@byzofsumma57 I love being called a "kid"...im 40 ;-)

[Kelnoctis]

@byzofsumma57 I think it's sweet. You come off as very rude and smug, just sayin'.

[craigt611]

@byzofsumma57 It is said if someone doesn't have something good to say, don't say anything at all. Just sayin'

Why is it that those that can't teach...criticize those that can.

[WeWontBeFooledAgain]

@byzofsumma57 I find it very disrespectful at your comment. First of all, "kids" are you seriously taking that serious? Jesus man, grow up. He's right on calling us "kids" because we're on his tutorial videos. And also how some people take that serious, is another reason why you should be called a "kid". But, I'm not gonna argue on the man's page because that's even more rude. Respect to you, yourguitarsage. So, grow up byzofsumma57. Just sayin'.

[vintageX1]

love your lessons dude please make more :D

[Mrlilgav]

"something about will you join us"... :-) classic!

[accystanleyred]

Thanks mate, easiest lesson on YouTube for Imagine by a mile. Gives us beginners the belief to carry on going.

Mr gnr must be on the wrong site commenting on sexual persuasions what a . . . well we know dont we.

Once again Thanks

[fever915]

GNR88 - You have no clue about The Sage -

You are so original with only 87 GNRs before you. and the gay comment - ohhh, impressive. you're so strong and brave. the girls must be standing in line just waiting for the chance.

Here's some advice. Stick with your internet porn sites you call dates and keep away from kids.

[ArcherBellGallagher]

@yourguitarsage JavyDouche1, lmao. You got at least one laugh from that :)

[EdwardJamesCastSly]

havent u considered that an F chord is way more simplier than a capo in the 5th fret?

[Askthisguy]

Your voice is good don't knock yourself. 

[johndawson420]

why dont you fret your pointer on your G chords?

[522kent]

some one seems to be afraid of their sexuality, when they project on others. Nice Lesson Sage

[ChloeMoloney]

i love your videos so much, i wouldnt be anywhere without them, i have been looking everywhere for a tutorial of superstition by stevie wonder, could you sometime do a cover, thankyou very very much for everything ♥

[trishefron]

You kinda remind me of David Cook. Ü

[legofatso]

what is the strumming

[Bennii87]

i like your lessons so much! BUT your page wont open for me! i have a complete black page when i open it! i have a mac with safari running on i... :(

[onemanarmy675]

[SuperOrdinaryGuy]

[haris3275]

[Supernanar69]

Yes good lesson et very nice voice.

Thanxs for imagine ;-)

[ryanscousin]

[sean1e100]

one of yr best vids... personality really comes through...bought the ebook a few weeks ago - really glad i did. But PLEASE do a video on more advanced stuff like hammer ons, pull offs, and especially palm muting with right hand (sounds so cool but v hard to understand how to do properly!) anyway, luv ya man - keep going

[harriseasyguitar]

hey. how is it going? how are the cats? lol! love your guitar lessons mate. have purchased the e book. i am trying to learn this song but having trouble getting the strumming pattern right. could you please help me with that. cheers.

[braydenzaucha]

what kind of guitar is that? it looks like a small j-200?

[asshole55560]

whats the reason for the capo. can you play without using the capo.

thanks

[1firwood]

Got the e-book but dont like cats! would love you to do Harvest moon.

Stu

[gizatoob]

The change of key's make this way the hard way I think, it's easier in the origional C. This way seem's that little bit more complicated, just sayin mind, I have found your other stuff helpfull and I was greatful

[storer16]

good video helped alot

[soundsleep1]

love the rendition with your vocals. sounds more interesting this way. : )

[ThePeacein]

it would be nice if you put the chords on the screen so we can see them in order while you talk.

[DanReborn]

I get the impression that dane cooks girlfriend is standing across the room naked, trying to distract him,

[DanReborn]

I never knew Dane Cook played guitar xD

[sufkiller]

This was posted on my 16 birthday lol HAPPY B-DAY TO ME! Thanks man

[EdwardSoto88]

what do you record with man. sound quality is really good an di want to upload covers to my channle.

[KittyKatPounce]

This may be a dumb question, but i'm hoping for some enlightenment....I have both an electric and an acoustic and i'm wondering if it's a no-no to play this song on anything other than an acoustic. I tried it on the elctric and I quite liked the sound.

[smalltimecharlie]

Well if it sounds cool then there's you're answer dude! :)

[yourguitarsage]

@KittyKatPounce

Correct. There are no rules to music. Only suggestions. Like smalltimecharlie said. If it sounds good, then do it!

:)

e

[KittyKatPounce]

Sweetness!  Thanx

[kyleohio5168]

@KittyKatPounce Yeah bro, go for it. Maybe use some power chords or something. Many bands do that when they cover songs like this. It sounds totally different, but so cool!

[ImOfTheWoods]

Looks good, thanks - I'm going to give this a try, 'cause if babies & monkies can play it..... 8o)

[iWOREaFEDORA]

You are my hero, I've been wanting to learn this song for a long time but it looked to complicated to play, then I watched this video and it took me, like, 10-12 minutes to remember all the chords

Thanks pal!

[heey094]

Thx, bro

[heey094]

Thx, bro

[TheMarlaDurden]

You're really good at teaching, and really pleasant to watch and listen too :) I'll be recommending you too my friends :)

[Lillemy1]

[garyvella1]

[betseyh09]

[tobiaspp90]

[yourbfhasnoaccent]

for the B7 do some ppl switch the poistion of the ring and pinky finger?

[yourbfhasnoaccent]

in the B7 how do you get your pinky on the first string of the second fret?

[drakeyxkaos]

If a baby had a really big hand, it could play this!

[longtalker]

Thank God for the Internet, Youtube and the guitar sage! I can't imagine how it must have been like learning guitar some 20 years ago just with books, it must have been hell!

[hillbillygenius72]

a lot of people just taught themselves, Jimi Hendrix for example.

[apjoeapjoe]

@longtalker

You know, I've often thought the same thing, lol! I'm even betting that thanks to the 'Net guitar playing is becoming more and more popular :-)

[michisson]

man you always say "pardon my singing" but i love your voice.

[yourguitarsage]

Thank you bro!

[shieldedchian10]

hey wich chords thos are?

[Guitarjams101]

Dude can you do a lesson with an eltric guitar...... Freebird by Lynyard Skynyard

[yourguitarsage]

I do have some electric lesson and will be offering more soon!

[VampyreADarkBeauty]

Your lessons on here are wonderful! i'm not really a beginner i've been playing for quite a bit. but depending on the song it can take me awhile to learn. And watching your lessons i get them down almost right away... with some memorizing to do =P

I love them and all the songs are so much fun to play once you've gotten them down. =D

I've been like on your page watching your lessons till five in the morning.... lol i love them. They've helped me soo much.

Thank you! =)

[grace52775]

Thank you for the lesson! I'm 25 and I think this song is awesome! I can't wait to learn it!

[kleinebudde]

On of the greatest songs of all time!

[longtalker]

Your videos are excellent, thank you so much for helping us beginners to actually make some nice music come out of our guitars!!

[agumon51]

Hello, almighty sage! It's me again. I was wondering what strumming you use for this one as well. lol sorry don't have a good eye or ear for the strumming.

[yourguitarsage]

Hey agumon51! You could safely do 1/4 notes on this one. 1,2,3,4 etc. All down strokes!

[EAJ1523]

do you think you could do a lesson on electric guitars? pleaseee

[elminino29]

joder qué mierda más grande
