Nick Beggs performing Tava

[mandstngt]

wow this guy rocks

[katlillard]

beautiful!

[manician2323]

i love this ! what a talent mr beggs is ! , but what has being gay got to do with anything ????( comment made by leonakita) , i'm sure you dont mean to offend, but why should we care about who somone falls in love with ? or fancy's ? love you nick gay straight bi , i'd consider turning for you as long as you played to me ! ! !

[AddictFender]

I went to steven wilson's show yesterday ine montreal. It's amazing how you support a band. Everyone breath at the same time as you did. The band and the crowd!

[constanzocira]

Two hands,two minds.Genious!

[Xzibit122]

Amazing game on Chapman Stick listen and listen to your games on it calms me down so what's your talent congratulates its own. Others may be hidden from you

[guitardaz1974]

are the two people who disliked this deaf or something?

beautiful piece of music!!!!

[cagonzalez1965]

Though I'm a six string bassist these days, I REALLY like what Nick has done with THIS instrument....will need to own one soon.....

[Hopspop]

I will own a stick, after seeing this I now know.

[Babaziba]

Great stuff. Really enjoyed watching you play on the 200 John Paul Jones tour as well.

[leonakita]

Gay or not!... the dude has talent.. and that must be respected!

[ridethewhirlwind]

@leonakita What makes you think he's gay. He's happily married and this song was written for an ex-girlfriend. How is he gay?

[leonakita]

@ridethewhirlwind Almost every clip I see of him, hes wearing a skirt, for one, and in some Kajagoogoo videos he kisses other male band memebers on lips. Does that answer your question?

[ridethewhirlwind]

@leonakita He likes to be controversial and do as he feels, not giving a damn about rules of "normality". That does not make him gay. I know him and my lady is friends with him from way back before Kajagoogoo days. Don't judge people by silly things like these. He sometimes wears a Victorian undertakers outfit on stage - does that make him an undertaker or keen on dead people?

[leonakita]

@ridethewhirlwind lol, fair enough...I'll give him the benefit of the doubt and forego judging a book by its cover.

[turockandar]

@leonakita The funny part is that he is the most down to earth normal bloke you could meet and the clothes just a commercial gimmick but also contain a good does of humour. The reaction to his look tells you more about those who have it and are insecure about their sexuality...in the meantime he lives a straight lifestyle. 

[huzdra]

I've heard him the last summer,in Todi. An amazing bass-player and a great gentleman. Hope he will return.

[cobboGHS91]

blew me away dude

[wachatalknboutwillis]

Nick Beggs is by far the most talented member of Kajagoogoo!

[sigbub]

amazing, haven´t any words

[phlather]

very nice

[Tortoisech]

Awesome Nick,

One of the best Bass/Stick Player around,

Cheers!

[weestuburns]

MUZAK.

[Zoetezoen]

without Ellis and Howard, but with Chapman... a little too shy to be Kajagoogoo

;-))

[vj551]

I love you )*

[silletjuh]

sooooo beautifull........what a sound!!!!!

[DoubleVisionandco]

This is so good it`s soul stirring. Always knew Nick was a master bassist, didn`t know he could do more.

[capriboy2o]

@dmgcat

you say that as if the bass riff for too shy is easy or something...try it out. Also, look up "shouldn't do that" Great bassing and singing!! My fave thing bout Nick is that his No1 bassline is "Gates of Delirium" by Yes....Awesome

[teaflax]

@capriboy2o Beggs just rose in my estimation. Gates of Delirium is one of the finest pieces of music ever made.

Also, this is a great song.

[rack325i]

bending with the right hand looks crazy hard

[TheFolksinger]

Lovely.

[mike584]

I still can't believe this guy was in fuckin' Kajagoogoo. This is so good.

[wjcshaver]

Where is he now? Get him out there with the STICK!!

[Gadmeer]

A brilliant bassist!

[themarco84]

wow! that is amazing! :)

[pamolame]

great musician!!!!

[Libano603]

i saw him live yesterday with steve hackett.

HE IS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!

[binosq95]

Cudowne !!!!!!!!!

Baeutiful !!!!!!!!

[59Putyin]

very very pro. no doubt

[tzouras]

He wrote it before he met his wife. Tava was/is a beautiful American woman he fell in love with back in the 90's.

[punkjazz28]

The mark of a good musician is someone that can make it look effortless, and he does, big time! Amazin

[samymone]

Einfach nur super mega chilling klasse... super NICK

[RussBass48]

Beautiful stuff, absolutely brilliant.

[redarmr]

Is this tune to buy....ANYWHERE?

[chaxian]

Just showed my mate, nick beggs videos on the chapman stick,He had tears in his eyes...and his hairs were raising on his arms! Hard to believe its the same guy as the dude with the beads from kaga....!!!We watched his interviews on here too,what a sound guy,he is.....!!!We would both love to meet him,some people touch you deep inside,beggs seems 2 b one of those..!Peace..p.s...!2 shy bass line . a classic..!

[BopperEnLarmes]

beautiful music sur un tres bel instrument and a very good musician. I love you , guitar-man very very much. It's a beautiful dream.

[TWENTIETHCENTURYBABY]

I wish my husband would write something for me, other than a note left on the table, can you iron me a shirt. A brilliant tune, very relaxing.

[seelenfluesterin]

I read it in an interview that Nick wrote it for his wife...I can't tell you more...but however, it is brilliant, isn't it!?!?!

[doctorwu1]

Wow!!! What a beautiful tune. Has just taken me to somewhere I needed to be in this crappy world! Amazing stuff. Will wear out my PC playing this!!!

[ivansabrini]

Wow! Nick Beggs, the real talent behind Kajagoogoo!

In a strange way he reminds me of Francis Dunnery!.......

[ravenlocksclp]

This song WASNT for his wife at all. It was for my old roommate. I am sure his wife wasn't that thrilled to have him put this song out at all. I am sure T is flattered though. It is a beautiful song.

[kajawife]

Nick asked me before he uploaded this. I have no problem with it at all, why would I? Tava was a long time ago, and besides, this is a stunning piece of music.

[mirzamarco]

Ann, I presume...!

I met Nick in Paris yesterday night, a dream come true, he's my favourite musician on Earth, and I mean it.

He told me we'd stay in touch, a real gentleman.

Peace,

Adriən

[HomeComingPrisoner]

Ahhhh....That look at the end :p I imagine Ann fell in love with Nick again after listening to this...amazing...

[seelenfluesterin]

SOOO wonderfull...he wrote it for his wife...I love it! Nick is a brilliant stick player and a very nice guy!!!

[ravenlocksclp]

It wasnt for his wife. You know him? ask him.

[Erikk66]

Incredible!!! Five stars to Mr Beggs!

Loved you with Iona, in fact I hear you every time I go in B&Q and poundland ( matthew the man is always being played in them!)

[rpashoukos]

Beautiful! I have a friend who plays the "stick" but your style is very smooth and laid back... nicely done.

[027810707]

fantastico

[phospheratu]

Fantastic. Wow.

[Catdelight]

Nick, you´re one of most talented bass players ever. I think, Kaja and escpecially you were the reason why I started playing bass. Thanks for inspiration!!!

[mrspester]

After checking out the entry for him on wikipedia I am glad to see his talent is being put to good use. You dont wash your hair with fabric conditioner anymore do you Nick?

[gimpdak]

Yes! x

[armatank]

lovely!!

[canceltheactive]

This is just beutiful, such interesting song! Cheers mate, i adore you from this day!

[KenpokaiMaster]

Wow, Nick how do you progress from the bass to something like that? Awesome sound!

[jackster42]

Nick Beggs is one of the better musicians.

This instrument he played is also is awesome.

Thanks Nick!!!

[utubeworms]

Wow, that is an amazing tune. Ever heard of the radio show called "echoes?" This song would be perfect for that show.

[queenrocks91]

well played!

bit simular to ''Queen - Bijou'' a part from the melody.. ;)

[DMCpro6944]

Nicely played!!

[KenpokaiMaster]

Would love to be this good one day!

[Queeny5567]

that is absolutely gorgeous.Always knew you were a great bass-man Nick,but that was something else.Awesome.

[Kenmarcelis]

What a talented man!

From the funky melodic percussion bass-lines

in the Kajagoogoo songs till the supurb lounge-jazz...

Nick Beggs is amazing.

Respect.

Ken Marcelis, Belgium

[niniane1]
