Alone again naturally, solo guitar arrangement

[CHUTBODIN]

I feeling alone when I listening.

[TheJaeger100]

Good expressive arrangement - very well played!

[ironmonger100]

@TheJaeger100 That's kind, thanks :-)

[hardgreenhorn]

my all the time fav songs!

this's Touching & Beautiful...., i faved!

[harleylouis]

so good..... you're the best.... XD

[gextvedde]

After our jam the other day I thought I'd check out some more of your arrangements which are always great and this is no exception By the way you're wearing the same top in a lot of these videos. Did you record them all at once or did you just not change your clothes for days?!

[ironmonger100]

@gextvedde Hey mate, glad you like this one.. such a fab song, lovely progression. You know I'm at the cutting edge of Medway fashion and possess not one but two t-shirts ..

[capt1989]

WELL DONE SIR! I have loved this song since I first heard it many years ago. Something about it stirs feelings deep in my being... I always thought that was kind of weird. Thanks for a beautiful and worthy rendition!



[investo100]

Just awesome guitar playing to a great sad song. This is the first time I heard a guitar rendition to one of my favorite songs.

Great Job!!

[ironmonger100]

@givemeapples1 Thanks - yes, as instrumentalists we can't offer variation between verses by singing different lyrics so we have to use what tools we have available, and that 'octave shift' is one such device.

[Wheatstatepizza]

Awesome.

[theleftykid]

man, you really are awesome in playing this song.. \m/_

[csl316]

Very nice. Excellent work, sir.

[ironmonger100]

@csl316 ..thank you, appreciate your kind comment here and on my channel, have a great week and thanks again

[HONORIOCPBRAGA]

I'm a brazilian guitar player (amateur) and I wish one day I can play this song, just like you do. I'm 70 now, and in the seventies ,they used to play it here in Brazil on the raidio, every 10 minutes.. At that time I did'nt understand the lyrics very well, but i loved the melody. Your performance is more than perfect. I wish I could get the sheet for of ypur arrangement. Congratulations.

[ironmonger100]

@HONORIOCPBRAGA It's a popular song the world over :-) thanks for the comment .. details of the sheet music for this arrangemnent are on my site shaunmurray. biz .. thanks again

[jjchava]

Great guitar arragement!!!! Youre a great player!!

[personalsummits]

I am looking to learn this myself. My brother and his family were over and we laughed at how our Mum used to play G.O'S. all the time, but when we looked at the words could not believe how sad a song it is, yet we always enjoyed the tune. I have listened to a few people plyaing this on youtube, but yours is the only one that has the soul and pace of the words. Very very nice. Excellent.

[metalmanjfisch]

great arrangement!

[nearvana2003]

Soon as i learn your cover version of Candle in the wind I will definately order this tab too!!! Still waiting for the tab though,

Cheers again,

Michael

[ironmonger100]

@nearvana2003 Hi Michael, tabs have been sent - hope all arrived .. maybe you could confirm receipt? Thanks. Glad you enjoyed this one :-)

[nearvana2003]

@ironmonger100 Just checked, not here yet, will check again in an hour or so, my daughter lives in Kent, West Wickham and sometimes the web doesnt get e-mails back and forth that quick. Will let you know right away though,

Cheers again,

Michael

[ironmonger100]

@nearvana2003 High Michael, music just sent to your near vana address, this time lucky hopefully!

[nearvana2003]

@ironmonger100 Dude thankyou thankyou, I was listening to this song for the second time when I scrolled down and saw your reply. I got candle in the wind and this one (CHEERS mate!) I will be ordering a few others soon guaranteed!!!

Cheers,

Michael :)

[MrHutchart]

wow.. you are amazing! pure awesomeness.

[Saleen88Guru]

awww :( that made me cry ... great song

[danycute33]

hermoso! la kiero tocar asi!

[blossomsquirrel]

Very good indeed. Even better if you kept the G bass going on the 'in an effort to make it clear to....' part where the chord moves simply to an augmented (d sharp note in the key you've chosen) rather than a b bass note which gives it a B(7) quality. Maybe you prefer it that way. Anyway, minor point, take a bow, it was very good.

[ironmonger100]

@blossomsquirrel ..Good observation, thanks .. the chord I get at that point remains an augmented (B,D#,G) so I don't think think the substance of it really changes - I hear aug rather than B7 when I listen back. Having the B in the bass instead of the G does mean I can get the 'trill' on the next beat a little easier.

[h8elcentro]

Wow.

[61lash]

beautifully played!

[nasyno]

brilliant ... lovely . what a player !

[fjgsg65]

Great interpretation and excellent arrangement. One on my favorite songs that must be played during my funeral. CONGRATULATIONS for your guitar skills.

[eulogyofsepu]

[dravidwake]

Wonderful playing. You make it look easy. It is not.

[dalestephens1]

This is one of my favorite songs! I love your arrangement, you are truly gifted...

[ironmonger100]

@dalestephens1 Thanks so much Dale ... I'm always amazed how this very British (Ok, I know Gilbert's Irish..) song is enjoyed by folks from the US...

[itzur]

lol, "chuck"

[Killerunclesam]

good job dude!

[Drawmin94]

When I hear this version you play, it makes me feel good and relaxed. Thank you for sharing it with us. :)

[gregoefc]

Genius. Well Played

[truace209]

Amazing arrangement, well done.

[mazen31234]

o men very nice, you are a very good guitar player, but i think that song would more appreciated if you put the tabs, although onli one song!!! =)

[JAARNO88]

this was the song that made me take up guitar playing.

[ironmonger100]

I know what you mean - I never took much notice of the song when it was out but I remember the nylon string guitar solo in it. Only in recent years have I rediscovered the song and realised how beautiful it is harmonically.

[kenouman]

that was beautiful..

great job!!!

[mordrelaballe]

Beautiful : ) Thank you for sharing this!

[pjacks19]

Brilliant.

[ArthurRLA]

Muito bom!

[eugenepious]

Heavy stuff man ... glad you like my version of it though :-) Cheers dani

[MoahnahLivs]

You should check out the version made by Admiraplayer , just as beautiful but different feel. (another US fan)

[amanrach]

Really great! Thanks for posting this. I know tabs are a pain, but if you are going to post them, it would be much appreciated. Keep them coming!! You have a fan in the States!!!

[ironmonger100]

Thankyou ... I'm always amazed when someone from the U.S. picks up on this track - it seems so British to me! I haven't transcribed this one yet, I'll let you know when I do :-)

[amanrach]

This song was #1 in the US back in 72. I remember this song (I was 7) but I had older brothers who listened to Top 40 all the time. You did a really good job. I realize how difficult some of these songs are too. I play and pick up the guitar every once in awhile. I've been practicing some Jim Croce lately. Thanks Again!

[Moniqmor]

hey man, just great!!! really............... i have no words. but i am looking for the tab and in dont find anyone as good as yours, why dont you teach us the song or tell us where we can get the tab, because its a song that really worths it, please!!!!

I almost forget to say congratulations for that amazing play

[bungns]

[ironmonger100]

Thanks, glad you like :-) ..will be tabbing this one soon

[ironmonger100]

Gracias :-)

[kyinzaryee]

learning guitar and still a very much beginner. Wanted to play this song and found this vid! You have a gift!

[alexei112233]

Outstanding. I am all in goosebumps. Almost cried. I'd love to have the tab. Thank you so much for a most beautiful performance.

[ironmonger100]

Wow, thankyou for such a lovely comment .... please don't cry though :-) .. I hope to transcribe this one soon

[dafster007]

I have played for yrs but still I do not or I have a hard time equating a single note on the guitar to a single note of a personce voice BRAVO OUTSTANDING :) you make me sick LOL you know wat I mean In a good way :) one onlder guy to another :)

[sabanita2008]

hola dejame decirte que esta cool... me gustaria aprenderla si me pudieras decir donde encontrar la partitura o tablatura te lo agradeceria... gracias ojala acudas a mi suplica

[simplenadine]

wow,,i am falling inlove with the songs,,pls play also when im sixty four or 62?i forgot already,,wow you are now my idol!gelangermany

[jreichbart]

I keep coming back to this video because I'm a sucker for classic 70's pop music as well as great guitar playing, both on display here and throughout the rest of your channel. 5 *****.

[elcapitan117]

Great playing. Seems effortless. Please let me know when you have tabbed out all these songs you are doing. Ill be sure to buy alot of them. Buy the way, your arrangement are great, have you ever tried to learn some of Earl Klugh 's solo arrangements. I think you will find them very challenging and satisfing to play.

[ToyKingWonder]

I am telling you, that is one of the BEST things I have ever heard. Just absolutely excellent. As a 47 year old guy just starting out guitar (chords and strumming!) I can only hope to God to play half that good someday!!!!

[wingywingy]

You are very, very good. it's a joy to the ear indeed! great job my friend

[jromano]

What a beautiful, effortless sounding arrangement. Nice job indeed. Would love a tab of this if it's ever available. Thanks for such a nice piece.

[Handritj]

It's SoooOOOooo nice... your smile too, pal... This Gilbert's is one of my favourite song... you really touch the SOUL... hope could have the TABS sometime... Thanks anyway!

[ironmonger100]

Ha, I'm not known for my smiling during songs, especially one with such sad lyrics as this lol :-) Hey, thankyou for the comment, really glad you like it. I'll be tabbing it sometime, I'll message you.

[MBtheMagician]

could you send me the tablature,please?

[ironmonger100]

Ciao! Sorry, it's an arrangement by ear, but I will make tabs for all my songs eventually, when I have done this one I will message you again. Thanks - Shaun (d'Inghilterra)

[bweevers]

What else can I say? TOTALLY, FREAKIN' AWESOME, brother!!!

I can tell that you worked hard on this! I know, I've been playin' all my life and can't do what you just did here without workin' it for a few weeks!

EXCELLENT job, keep it up!!!

[ironmonger100]

Thanks, very much appreciated! Can't believe there are so many Gilbert fans out there in the U.S. :-)

[jamierourketen]

this is spooky,i have just sung this song last night at a gig in tenerife!

[lavavava]

*Sigh* I really wish i can have your guitar arrangement on this as well! I really wanna learn this song!

[tizznao]

good job brother, I will be like you in another live..

[babs2002ukus]

stunning my friend and beautiful version :)

-Clint

[elecktrick9s]

[LChris89]

Complimenti!! Stupendo!

[ironmonger100]

I'm surprised this song is known in Italy! Thanks for the comment, much appreciated :-)

[LChris89]

L'ho conosciuta con Ally McBeal...e sentirla fatta così bene è un'emzione...sei bravissimo!

[pontepolentepontepi]

Really really nice !

BRAVO!

Luigo

[OldPicker]

absolutely beautiful!

Five stars and many greetings from Germany

from OldPicker

[ironmonger100]

Well thankyou Oldpicker, and for subscribing! Best wishes - Shaun :-)

[rohit275]

This is absolutely beautiful. I would die happy if I could play like that some day. Excellent.

[ironmonger100]

Glad you enjoyed, thanks for watching. Don't be dying on me though :-)

[clapidastra]

very cool I hope people can remember this song.the original was very cleverly written and this expertly arranged and performed by a true master of the instrument.

[ironmonger100]

I guess the beers are on me after that comment :-))

[gogolusa]

Shaun - Thanks for the oldie. I had forgotten how beautiful the melody and chord progressions were in that song.

[ironmonger100]

Thanks, much appreciated. I think it's a masterpiece of a song, and I wish i could have done it more justice. I was surprised to find this song is quite well known in The States! Season's greetings to you :-)

[gogolusa]

It's a shame you don't post tabs since I don't have an ear for capturing the complex chords as you. 5 stars again, naturally.

Merry Christmas!

[pancurium]

im a metalhead but i got two words for you. fuck yeah!!!

[rhecoy2007]

another 5 stars my friend...ü

[TtriNiTty]

sooooooooo beautiful!

thank you :)

[jreichbart]

Beautiful! Although I live in the states now, I am European by birth and go often (This Dec in fact) and so I always loved the British pop music (especially the 70's) even though I don't perform it much since people here don't know much of it. I had several ideas for guitar arrangements of Pilot songs but again, no one here would know it. Can I request some Pilot...?

[ironmonger100]

Hey Jake, I'm thrilled you found the time to watch - Thankyou! Ah, Pilot - yeh, some great catchy, quirky melodies - VERY underrated, and they seem to sound so much better now we're older for some reason! I feel an arrangement coming on, stay tuned! :-)) Best regards mate - Shaun.

[ipocentro]

great!!!!

[rhecoy2007]

another great play, continue posting some nice song...I love to listen u'r played music. Before had a problem with my finger i used to play some pop music in guitar...

[ironmonger100]

Thanks for the kind comment, really appreciate that. I just did it by ear, trying to play the melody over the top of the chords, it's not written down. Glad you liked it, it's a great song.

[petercspaul]

great.

is it possible to get guitar tabs

thank you...

[fcum2006]

Absolutely incredible mate!

Very well done

[b707man]

WOW!That was amazing! Thank you for sharing this!

[dovbell]

EXCEPTIONAL! No words are ever spoken.

[StopFramEmotion]

FANTASTIC!! Really well done!

[alexwritestube]

Real Good! Iron, it is always a great surprise to listen to a rendition of a song that is so associated with its author and singer and the times from where it sprang, and still to be performed in such a new meaningful way. Appreciated your sharing it. Thanks.

[TrrYxL02]

eres un chingon camarada te admiro haber si la puedo sacar como tu saludos desde atlanta GA
