  • Do you want make tutorial video?? or everyone??

  • Man. You are phenomenal. You're playing the bass(kinda), the lead, AND percussion on one instrument. And the song itself isn't lacking in anything from a musical or emotional stand point.

  • Amazing!  Subscribed.

  • btw what program do you use to record

  • holy crap this sounds crazy good, you got some crazy bass out of those low strings

  • @bigmama3838 I gave away my music for over 2 years for free. I even tabbed out 2 songs for free and gave it away. Now, I need to make some money to supplement my income. I am sure you understand.

  • Wow, fantastic!

  • You should be touring with people like Andy McKee and Thomas Leeb!!!!!!!!!

  • I love the way you play this wonderful tune!

  • just bought the tab, best $4 i have ever spent

  • Dude you are absolutely wicked. Mate i love your sound and could definitely so some great things with it. By the way i love how you put in those harmonics; i always love harmonics they just send tingles through me.

    I would jam with you any day.

  • Its people like you that still make me believe theres great musicians out there, that real music is still alive and commercial music didnt totally overtake us, people like you that make me want to also continue in music. Thank you <3

  • Teach me... D: I wish I could learn to play guitar just as well as you do, you are amazing.

  • tabs pleeeeeeeeeease :( im begging!

  • @lloyd29aq I'm working on it. It's very hard because I have to relearn the song by watching myself. I haven't played this tune in 2 years!

  • @lloyd29aq Ok, it took me 4 hours but tabs are now on my website. Enjoy!

  • Beautiful !!!

    Great playing!

  • Des mélodies chaque fois évidentes de beauté... !

  • I just wanted to say, I love your finger playing. I'm actually trying to get my skill up on it because of you. Your songs ALWAYS either relax me or improve my mood. So thank you for that. And it's great how your aren't overly complicated, they're simple but portray a TON of emotion. Keep up the great work Matt.

  • Comment removed

  • I've gotta say this: this man, along with many musicians like Jean Baudin, Eric Czar, and Andy McKee simply blow me away! I only hope to play as good as these guys on bass and/or guitar. I already have some tunes made on bass that I'd love to record soon.

  • man i wish i could so such amazing melodic fingerpicking

    love it!!!

  • too much to ask for tutorials on your vids?

  • some one really need to TAB this song, been hangin out to learn it

  • @wogga1221

    right on, we need tabs!!!

  • @ZOMBIELANDakaUSA Tabs are now on my website :) Keep in mind, this can also be played in standard tuning. It's just recorded 1 1/2 steps down.

  • @StupidHatMatt

    right on, i'm pretty good at learning by ear, but if i'm gonna cover you, i wanna make sure i'm spot on

  • @ZOMBIELANDakaUSA I would love to hear it man, covers are awesome!

  • @StupidHatMatt

    I like your style, everything about it,whether plugged or unplugged,it's definitely your style. As i would like to think i'm creating something of my own, and would love to do all original stuff, i've said before that i will always show respect to the inspirations that have helped guide me to where i'm at, and am going,you're a source man,and i thank you

    I hope this winter i can produce some worthy goods,if my mind can slow down long enough to do some vids,lol

  • absolutely brilliant. very tasteful playing, and great track

  • I am just flabbergasted that you're letting people download these songs for free. I would gladly hand over $1 per song on iTunes.

  • why do you only have like 30,000 views? you deserve around 10 million per vid

  • wow... awesome man,, long live matt

  • hey bro i am truely inspired by your music man, and i have two questions to ask you so please help me with this, are you using a preamp? and would you be able to hook me up with this tab?

  • where can i get the tab?

    this is amazing

  • i want this played at my wedding.

  • Awesome song man

  • wow :)

  • this song is amazing.

  • You should make a video lesson on the chords you use. These sound so elegant. Love this piece of art here.

  • Great tune man...the sound is awesome; really natural sounding. You've got a good name by the way! Are you mixing the sound with any guitar electronics?

  • This is definitely my favorite song by you

    Last night I sat there for an hour trying to tab it for my own use... and eventually gave up after not even being able to get the intro :P

  • just amazing i'm speechless, no words of mine could ever describe this : D

  • What model guitar is that? Is it a Taylor?

  • This is simply beautiful. I could die listening to this and I would be at peace.

  • i notice youre married....does your spous enjoy your beautiful music???

  • do you have a cd out? I'm planning my wedding and I really want this playing in the background

  • omg, mehh wiener goes up just about everytime i listen to this!(:

  • What an amazing song the technical sound you can hear how intricate it is. My 13 year old son is so inspired he is trying to learn this. It will be his first fingerpicking song. Its beautiful thank you very much for sharing such a beautiful piece.

  • i searched your guitar in google and it costs $4,000, deeaam!, but you deserv it.

  • you are to good for it to be real only an angel could play such music

  • I think I've watched just about every one of your videos and I'm at a loss for words. You seem to put more emotion into one song than most people put into their entire musical career. If more people would only take the time to listen to your music they might realize what real music is. Keep on makin' music brother and I'll keep listenin'.

  • 3 dislikes= 3 very jelious people keep it up dude. your amazing, and your sound is incredable

  • awsome =) i love acoustic sound,

    and this song is so perfekt.

    i love it.

    all youre songs are awsome an redy to get recordet on cd, and to performe live on stage (sorry my english is not so good)

  • I really respect you , this is music but the sad part is that there is a million teens hearing Justin Bieber or Lady Gaga

  • It is my personal mission to view this and all of your videos as much as I can. Share them with friends and family. your beautiful composition and mastery of music evokes such deep emotion in me that I could shed tears. It makes me think of how much I love and miss my father after he passed away. How badly I wish for my mother to be healthy and happy again. How much it pains me to not have my soul mate in my arms every night that she is away from me. Never stop playing. Please. you are PERFECT.

  • favorite song of you :).

    just awesome. cant understand why tehre are disklies...well haters....

    ill upload a own song of me soon whitch i did for a friends birthday.

    nothing special, well it is kinda special because its played for her :D. but id like to see what you think :)

  • This is probably my favorite song that you've composed. Simply beautiful. I also love the fact that you write simply to write. Not to make any money. Music is about letting your emotion flow into what you're playing, and letting others feel that emotion. That's why there's hardly any music like this left anymore. You forever have my respect

  • @mitchthesnowboarder1 Wow man, what can I say? Thank you, from the bottom of my heart.

  • @mitchthesnowboarder1 This! <3

  • @mitchthesnowboarder1

    he needs the money, he has so much talent its just criminal he isnt taking a deal! he could be in such a better position and whats more hed still be writing what he wants, what is peoples problem with making money off music??

  • @SwirlyBrokenHearts Ok my apologies. I definitely worded that wrong. I meant that he's not all about money. Most artists these days just want to get into labels that can get them record deals, and thus concerts. So what he is doing is simply making music. He can completely express himself as he so chooses. Which is what I love. Record companies make you write "their music". He writes his own. I like it :D haha sorry for the confusion

  • @mitchthesnowboarder1

    yeah what you said...

  • @mitchthesnowboarder1 I think there is nothing wrong with composing beautiful music for the love of it and making large some of money while doing :)

  • Buttery Chord Progression Changes dude! Very nicely played and done. I like the sound the AKG mic produces as well.

  • i wish i could put this on repeat and sleep to it. : ) soooo good. keep it up man.

  • I have watched a few of your videos, and what can I say? Every single one of them are amazing!

  • Wow, that sounds fantastic. Excellent playing and excellent equipment. Is that an original arrangement?

  • SUSCRIBED! amazing stuff man you have real talent , i admire what you do very much man

  • Dude, i love your music. Not just because you're skilled and put notes together... but because you actually make music. You add Heart, soul and passion to a song, You have a great gift, run with it!

    btw i love the acoustic songs :) This and "Megan's Song" are my favs :)

  • ...and who do you get on TV? Justin Bieber an Lady Gaga.

  • how the hell do u have such low views... that really pisses me off

  • Ouh my gaaaaawd i want this tabs sooo much >.<'

  • absolutely speechless... incredible

  • Pretty, sounds nice,great acoustic guitar sound.

  • This is so pretty. Makes me wish I could play guitar. :-)

  • Great Stuff

  • beautiful :) ty for sharing

  • I dont ever heard anything like this......this is great

  • @thejuniorguitarkid guitar center, musician's friend, zzounds, all carry taylors. probably bailey brothers too, but im not positive

  • loving what your doing.. do you mind if I write some lyrics to a few and make some videos and share them with you?

  • IM GETTING THE MP3!!!!!!!!! You are sooo great man and I'm subscribing.

  • Favourited, subbed. And you inspired me; I'm bassist but gonna buy acoustic guitar after christmas, do you recommend nylon or steel stringed for beginners to train basic stuff first^^

  • nice playin'

  • Really nice song and good sound.

  • *friend

  • Im glad I stumbled onto your videos. The music you make is just so soothing and peaceful. You can truly move people and that is something you should honestly be proud of. Cause thats wat making music is all about. Touch as many lives as possible. And you my friends are doing a great job so far.

  • listen to it everyday. nice!

  • Wow, love this song too ! You're great man !! I want to play like you, someday, I will, I promise ^^

  • Very nice indeed on a Sunday morning full of a cold!

    Well done mate.

  • Hey Matt, another gem mate. I've just come home from work and this is winding me down...hehe.

  • ahh man thats so good how did u learn to compose songs like this?? lol

  • oh wow! so this isn't plugged straight to a computer? you are using the mic -- such a rich sound! Wonderful comp..i love the percussive stuff. Nice harmonics!

  • g'day mate, great playing, this is the kind of stuff i love to make up, can i just ask you what string you use and also whats your favorite tuning

  • Couldn't  you share some scores?

  • Sick song bro you got heaps of talent and you play so clean. Hopefully one day i'll be as good as you

  • DO YOU HAVE A CD THAT CAN BE BOUGHT? LOVE YOUR GUITAR SOUNDS!!

  • wow fucking awesome. exactly the acoustic sound i like

  • nice, very nice!..... again Bravo!!

  • good video' ..

  • sod bruno mars and b.o.b and other artists nowadays who have brainwashed people into thinking their computerized crap is music, because you are playing real music, which is absolutely beautiful

  • @agliebeast why on earth are you singling out bruno mars? i don't think hes ever used autotune, and certainly not in any of his popular songs. did you hear him play at the grammys? hes an absolutely great singer. b.o.b sucks though. but thats all beside the point. lovely playing matt. you're an inspiration to us all

  • how is your mic setup?

  • SO howd you beginto learn how to play? Because this peice was astoundingly beautiful, did you take classes or self teach? How would you suggest a beginner start?

  • buenisimo !

  • I just started fingerpicking, and I never thought of adding slides into they make it sound awesome, great job man

  • OMG dude ! seems that I skee... sorry I need to go. loool

  • I've listen to this song so many times know (probably over 50) and it's just great. Nice relaxing song that sounds so original. Well done mate :)

  • @RobAnderson0 Wow, I'm truly honored. Thanks alot!

  • you and andy mckee have inspired me to play i would like to here more songs by you i just bought a acoustic guitar last friday so when i go back to ohio for college when i get out of class ill have some thing to do i hope some day ill be as good as you to im a good drummer but now i want to see how good i get at the guitar thanks man your are very inspiring

  • Friggin' lovely. So many dudes do this kind of thing but yours seems more honest than most and is beautifully simple. I'm going to learn how to play this one (a challenge for me as I am a drummer. I keep my 7 string in a similar tuning, just with lower string added (F#, C#, F#, B, E, G#, C#).

    Thanks for what you do brother.

  • @jacosmith86 Thanks man, I try not to overcomplicated things. Music isn't about how many notes you play but where your heart is when you play them.

  • @StupidHatMatt  Agree with that.... God bless U'r finger bro...

  • @StupidHatMatt Are you going to make any new videos Matt?

  • TABS TABS TABS PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE or go pro please so i can learn these amazing SONGS!!!!!

  • @lorenzino1 Haha, thanks.... I appreciate you taking the time to listen and comment. It means alot to me!

  • sounds like something you'd hear in an instructional video menu :P

    reguardless, it sounded great!

  • Redownloaded all of your songs when you made them higher quality. This is the only one that didn't change. Maybe you missed it?

  • @Blaizerazer Yeah, I lost the original WAV file. It sucks. That's the best it's gonna get :(

  • @StupidHatMatt you and andy mckee have inspired me to play i would like to here more songs by you i just bought a acoustic guitar last friday so when i go back to ohio for college when i get out of class ill have some thing to do i hope some day ill be as good as you to im a good drummer but now i want to see how good i get at the guitar thanks man your are very inspiring .

  • @alpinestar919 Hey man, that's really awesome. I don't have an acoustic anymore because I'm focusing mainly on tapping and piano but maybe I'll write another one someday. Good luck on your journey!

  • @dariukas88 thanks!

  • What a great full sound..just Magnificent!...:-)

  • @Mariekesone Thank you so much, I always love your thoughts!

  • OK. Aggghhhh.

    Kept it spare, relied on the song itself, let it speak, didn't let the agility of the fingers mangle everything...

    If anyone ever gets in the way of your practice time (family excluded), let all us out here know about it, and we'll beat them up. As a community service.

  • @KnowKnot Haha, I'm not practicing much right now just because I have a lack of inspiration at this point. I'll be back soon enough! Thanks again :)

  • OK. Aggghhhh.

  • Wow. All of your videos have left me in absolute awe. You have inspired me and I SO wish I could play like this on my guitar!!! Oh well, I'll keep at it. Anyway, you're such an inspiration and I love how you seamlessly mix bass notes and a melody all in one. You are an amazing player; keep rocking! :D

  • @danceVeraE I'm honored, really.

  • There's something beautiful about this. It's somber, yet expressive. It's elegant and subtle, yet strong. I tried to figure out what it was about this song, and I think it's that it voices maturity, the type of maturity that a person who has experienced trial and heartbreak but defiantly hoped and found beauty nonetheless. The melodies aren't afraid of being sad. But just the same, they aren't afraid of being uplifting.

  • @beforehonour Yes, I agree with much of what you said. Most of my writing tends to be in minor keys...

  • hey matt ur work is amazing seriously all the vids i watched has me in awe can you please tell me how u compose such pieces i must know lol im trying really hard to become better and it would be so nice if u can just show how you go about writing music help a brotha out lol ty im still somewat new to the whole guitar thing i have basic understanding of theory but how do you put everything together?

  • @aceshigh23650 Thanks so much!
