[peacejoytown]

Thank you. I hope you enjoy picking and the sound of wooden vibration. I love fingerstyle because it has been this way for centuries.

[UofMGuy155]

Excellent.

[peacejoytown]

[wwaw1123]

[peacejoytown]

Thank you for purchasing my CD. I hope you enjoy it. I will have to go over this video to refresh my memory first.

[britishkamikaze]

You should do While My Guitar Gently Weeps

[peacejoytown]

I will i future.

[britishkamikaze]

I Can't Help But Sing Along Every Time I Watch One Of Your Videos!

Great Job!! Ringo, John, Paul, and George Would Be Happy To See That Their Music Still Lives On!

[peacejoytown]

Thank you! That's good to hear.

[JARABIN9]

-Rick

[peacejoytown]

Thank you Rick.

[amosvurdon]

[peacejoytown]

Thank you. Do you mean tabs? I haven't written this out yet.

[amosvurdon]

music and tab if posible or just music ok its so good

[peacejoytown]

As I said, I don't have it written out yet. You can find chords on internet easily since I used that for the arrangement.

[56stargazer]

wow. now you have me practicing my guitar more.

[peacejoytown]

For some reason, I get comments and messages like yours all the time, but I think it is very nice. Thank you.

[Patman9393]

your amazing at guitar man. you should sing along, that would be cool. keep up the good work!

[peacejoytown]

Thank you! I only sing when I go to karaoke bar. With guitar, I sing with fingers.

[SabMei1]

I like this piece and the way how you play it.

I can see and hear that you feel what you play.

5 stars for that and regards from Germany

Sabine

[peacejoytown]

Thank you for stars Sabine. I really hope to visit Germany again sometime soon.

[SabMei1]

Ah, maybe we´ll meet in Lemgo?

I send you a friend-invite :-)

[peacejoytown]

I've been there. I really should start making a plan to visit there again.

[cookie35n]

you are a god at guitar your none human what are you cuss no human can do what you can do

[peacejoytown]

Thank you but I'm nowhere near there. I had to re-do three times to finish American Tune on my last gig.

[Beatleboy62]

My guess is that this is what Lennon intended when he and Paul wrote this :)

[peacejoytown]

Thank you. I'll ask my mom to ask John about that up there.

[Patsik]

Great!!!

Love this song. You're playing is superb!

...huh...in the chorus you play F#m - G...shouldn't it be F#m - D7?

Overall I can't play half of what you do.

Rock on!

[peacejoytown]

Thank you. Maybe I had a part of Carpenter's version in mind.

[peacejoytown]

Thank you.

[marcmc1979]

[peacejoytown]

Thank you marc. Sure you can add me as a friend.

[pinkintine]

i could listen to this beautiful music 24/7.

absolutely wonderful :)

[peacejoytown]

Thank you. (^^)

[Th3Yod4]

Its almost two in the morning and I have homework to finish but now that I have found your songs I don't want to do anything but listen. Seriously considering buying CD's. Is it possible to buy them online and download direct?

[peacejoytown]

Thank you. I hope you finished your homework. I only have license to sell them as discs at this moment.

[puppies21616]

you should do Real Love by John Lennon, completed by the remaining beatles in 1994

[peacejoytown]

I might try it in future.

[MrColeiro]

Dear Hiroshi, I admire your guitar playing. I just bought 3 of your CD's. I am a guitar player but not as good as you are. I wish to have access to the written score to learn playing as you do. I am prepared to pay a fee as well. Thanks for the way you play the songs.

[peacejoytown]

Thank you for ordering my CDs. I said they will be shipped tomorrow but I forgot that I have to wait for a post office to open on Monday. I assume that you are already working on some of the scores there by now. If you haven't receive email from me yet, please let me know.

[MrColeiro]

I have not yet received the email you are refering to. Thanks for your prompt reply.

[peacejoytown]

I will send the same message through here then.

[hepbro]

very nice job Hiroshi. Very nice tempo and character. Looking forward to getting your CD

Phil

[peacejoytown]

Thank you Phil. It should be there in a few days.

[gelykika]

[tnshutterbug]

Another great arrangement. Thanks for sharing your talent and music with all of us!

[peacejoytown]

Thank you. It is my pleasure.

[dianeb1020]

Forget about the driver's license. Get a pilot's license and come to New York! That song gets 12 stars.

[peacejoytown]

Thank you for stars. I think I will get an ailine ticket to go to NY. If I go to US, I would like to have some freedom about where I go. That would be only possible if I can drive.

[mclaren122]

never know this one, so thanks.

and nice picture on the wall.

[peacejoytown]

Thank you. It was taken in my mother's room. I will check the picture next time I go there.

[librarian1955]

It is a real magic interpretation. You sound perfect. thank you very much/ARIGATO.

Aisha

PS If you plan to visit Lemgo and play there, let us know, please.

[peacejoytown]

Thank you Aisha. Dou-Itashimasite.

I will be there again someday in near future. I had a wonderful time there. You will know if it happens since I will make an announcement video.

[jatuleba]

I started learning to play guitar, but never went to the end ... Guy, ... I envy you!

God Bless you.

[peacejoytown]

Thank you. Welcome to the no ending world!

[porsche217]

Dear Hiroshi,

one of your best arrangements you did already. To extract the sound of this fabulous band on six strings only really is very fine art ... beautiful!

Cheers from Lemgo/Germany

Bernd

p.s.: we need a follow up visit here in Lemgo. The last one is gone for one year now... you are welcome always !

[peacejoytown]

Thank you Bernd. I can't believe it's been a year already. I will get a driver's license so I can drive to Lemgo myself next time.

[yooj12]

Nice! Have you ever met any of the Beatles?

[peacejoytown]

Thank you. No, I haven't met nor seen any of them.

[Cobainication]

Aahh sooo good ;D

[peacejoytown]

Thank you. (^^)

[LedDaveZeppelin]

Beautifully done! Love the outro.

[peacejoytown]

Thank you!

[reddfox16]

[bartotheref]

Having fun while listening. 5/5

[peacejoytown]

Thank you Filippo.

[hecklord]

beautiful...

[peacejoytown]

Thank you.

[pescriollo]

Great song, and great arrangement, it might be easy for you, especially when it has only a few chords.

[peacejoytown]

Thank you. Less chords doesn't always means easy since you have to be musical with just a few changes.

[peacejoytown]

Thank you for *s !

[didiotradimension]

please come to argentina !!

I love your's arrangements.

thanks for your music...

[peacejoytown]

Thank you. I sure would like to be there and other South American countries and maybe have a gig or two.

[didiotradimension]

Let me know!

[peacejoytown]

You will know when it happens.

[baumpost49]

Hi, Hiroshi,

what a wonderful arrangement and you plays it so much softer than the original. Love it!

Greetings from Germany, Stephan

[peacejoytown]

Thank you Stephan. I had some images from The Carpenters' version too.

[oodava]

Lovely arrangement Mr. Masuda.

[peacejoytown]

Thank you.

[jantub]

Another great arrangement!!! Five stars, hope you write it out soon...

[peacejoytown]

Thank you for stars! I will write it before I forget.

[74hodag]

You've done it again! Superb arrangement and flawless playing.

[peacejoytown]

Thank you. I like it to be flawless.

[Timp7503]

COOL!55555

[peacejoytown]

Thank you for 5s !

[brsprin]

I love hearing you play. Once again a simple thanks for sharing. I love it. Trying to point some friends that play to listen too.

[peacejoytown]

Thank you for spreading this video to your friends.

[HanzP]

Hello Hiroshi,

again a fantastic arrangement and I tend to agree with MrBaloni:

Maybe one of your finest!

Also the sound quality this time is much better then in the last videos.

Nothing to say about your playing, great as always.

Now it's more than a year that we met, I hope you're doing well, my friend!

Greetings from Lemgo and best wishes

Hansel

[peacejoytown]

Thank you Hansel. Time just flies. I will get a driver's license so I can enjoy driving there next time.

[MrBaloni]

Hi Hiroshi - I think this is one if your finest arrangements so far. There's so much detail, yet it all works effortlessly. Congratulations. Best wishes.

[peacejoytown]

Thank you. I always try to be better than before which gives me a good pressure on next video.

[illonaguitar]

amazing 5*

[peacejoytown]

Thank you for *s.

[GuenterGeurts]

Very good arrangement!

5 stars from germany.

Best wishes, Günter

[peacejoytown]

Thank you Günter. I can't believe that it's been a year since I was in Germany. I will try to be there again soon.

[EpiDot52]

For a long time when I was younger I thought the lyrics were "She's got a tick in her eye" Now it sounds dumb but it made a lot of sense at the time.

Back on topic: Well played. I really like how it is arranged from 2:04 to 2:15

[peacejoytown]

Thank you. That kind of things happens to me all the time. A lot more since English isn't my primary language.

[clizarb]

very good to listen to!

thanks

[peacejoytown]

Thank you! It is my pleasure.

[birdie399]

Fantastic arrangement. You must work long and hard to create such fine work.

[peacejoytown]

Thank you. A song like this usually comes out in very short time since I have been listening to this song so many times.

[rd2ed]

Because you are obviously a Beatles fan, you may not like this, but I never cared much for this song. That is until I heard your arrangement of it and when combined with your guitar talent....well you changed my mind and I now have a new perspective! A good one.......

[peacejoytown]

Good to hear that. It is totally understandable. There are a few songs I don't really care about up till now, but you'll never know, I might have a new perspective for those in future just like you had.

[waimanalo19]

sounds suits well for the guitar

I like it !

[peacejoytown]

Thank you! I think so too.

[fishe153]

Awesome! You're an inspiration and a fantastic guitarist!

[peacejoytown]

Thank you!

[PaulMCC626]

How do you come up with your own unique compositions of the songs? Do you look up what key the song is in and go from there?

[peacejoytown]

I just play around and when I find a right key, it's done.

[listonian7j]

yes u are :o

[peacejoytown]

I see. (^^)

[listonian7j]

ur pro

[peacejoytown]

Thank you. Am I?

[turkamine]

[MarcusMcCabe]

[peacejoytown]

Thank you. I will when I write it out.

[peacejoytown]

Thank you! It is my mother's bedroom.

[whiskofdrinkey]

Ticket To Ride! A very good song choice to follow the last one , i remember that carpenters album. hey that's a new room, wow

[peacejoytown]

I heard The Carpenterd covered this song on their debut single. It is my mother's bedroom.

[whiskofdrinkey]

yep it's a single, then the first album as a duo "Ticket To Ride, AKA "Offerings 1969 :D .Your'e arrangement is astonishing as always, and you're mom's room is sunny & cheerful.

[peacejoytown]

I heard it on TV documentary about them. It was a rather sad show though. Yes, my mother has a small but very nice apartment in one of the best place in Yokohama.
