Angel in the Snow by Elliott Smith Tutorial

[chrisshicks]

what no solo?

[resilience1031]

Would you be able to find the time to do a tutorial for Pitseleh? You've done a great job with the rest

[BuriiBii]

Aw man, this made me sooo happy XD

[kathrynwillson]

thnx friend!

[beckyjerk]

You are fucking adorable.

Oh and great cover, thank you :)

[EvelynLemontree]

I think I'm in love :)

[Oliviamorgan18]

You forgot the guitar solo part :(

[jodj22]

Thanks!

[jodj22]

Thanks!

[brownstreaks69]

you sound good but your tutorials are horrible

[curve311]

@brownstreaks69 If you can't figure out how to play the song from this video, you may need more guitar help than just a basic youtube tutorial

[brownstreaks69]

if you played the song slow it would be a big help

[YetAnthony]

Don't add your vocals. It ruins the whole tutorial.

[kmdn1]

Thanks for putting this up! I kindof had an idea already how to play this song but your video helped clear up some things. Do you have any idea how to play the bridge?

[HIPandiDONTmeanHOP]

Very helpful, but what about the rest of the song?

[JebJulian]

thanks for the video Jeff, helped a bunch

[roFontenla]

awesome walkthrough man!

[patwrotethis]

i learned alot of from this video but i dont understand the chorus, the into and all that i get but after you ride it out on G for two measures i dont get exactly what your doing...help anyone?

[shotterslife]

finally i take time to thank you for all your tutorials. without you i wouldnt be able to play angeles. your lessons are pretty good, a bit fast sometimes,but you always have the right chords. the long and short of it, thanks!

[EllisDinh]

nice overview! thx

[obuckseyesu1]

i'm not sure which strings you're strumming on those run ups...

[masterblackcock]

hey can you teach me how to strum for this song. like the way strum the song 

[MtSiredneck]

hey can u tell me the name of the strings ur using on the run downs

[Ihopeyoudi]

ehhh... you dont happen to know the solo do you?

cause if you do, tabing/ making a new tutorial would be awesome!

[pfpacheco]

Thanks so much for posting, though I think im still gonna need tabs to nail this one. LOVE your voice btw.

[varstasdp]

COULD SOMEONE DO TAB PLEAZE BADLY ?

[varstasdp]

can someone do more detailed lesson

[ber82]

Nice tutorial, i like your guitar too, what model?

[420taylor]

he kinda coped out on the first verse with the singing. it seems to go from g to e then a7 and then c and start over that way a few times till you get to the verse where elliott sings "don't you know i still love you". i think i'm gonna have to tab this out as its hard for some to follow. look for it in the next couple of weeks on ultimate guitar.

[AmandaSvensson1]

could somebody create a tab? cause I don't understand which chords he play's right after the A7 up to the C

[EveryPennyFedCar]

it goes back and forth from just going a7 then c, to a7 then g then c

[a3m6l]

Good video. they play this song in the new movie "up in the air" and i had to learn it.

[xcgumby]

thanks, this is a great help, but what are the runs for the verse - the G to E?

[completelyADAMful]

what about the solo? dont just skip that part... i mean, come on.

[RonaldvanHippel]

Why you don't show the right hand? you pick and strum at the same time, like Elliott! I would give a lot for this skill!

[BirdOfPreyvsSparrow]

just hit the bass notes

and don't use a plectrum

;)

[deefor3]

this couldnt be much worse, you dont say what you are playing in the runs and you skip the solo, you should have just said "figure it out yourself" and ended the video

[cspring08]

are you serious?! you need more help than that?! wow....

[deefor3]

no i know the song just fine, and figured out the solo by myself, just dont know why he would ignore that, and most people who look at vids to learn how to play songs cant figure it out themselves or with a tab so someone just saying "this simple run" and skipping things doesnt help a lot of people

[cspring08]

alright

i dig that

[gnarlyashell]

That was an awesome tutorial. Fun song to play, thanks for posting this. You're awesome!

[Tinkwi]

Thank you for your effort - I really appreciate it !!

But without the tabs this video is useless for me, you're just too fast and that makes me crazy...

Dont take my comment as an offense, it is an advice to make you videos better and reach more people...

[lynne3939]

You don't have the tabs for this, do you?

[marshie25]

I also need tabs. I cant follow your fingers and know where to push. All the tabs I find I cant follow

[condogwow]

I agree with Brendan, you have a really fuckin soothing quality about you man. Excellent songs and tutorials as well, I love Elliott Smith. Keep em comin!

[EllisDinh]

@astonishing00 omg AGREE. elliott and bright eyes are at the top

[wendweeb]

what's the strumming pattern?!

[XxxRowan90]

Go on 2:17

[XxxRowan90]

Lets see you d better peenaclips

[XxxRowan90]

Not bad

[polyricocalde]

jeff tnx, but i think u r missing a D. i see you playing the D but u arnt mencioning it. lpiz let me know if im right to play the song enterly right

[Brendan1989]

jeff kim i love your voice dude. I dunno why.

[peelincaps]

I would love nothing more than to add insult to injury. The fact remains that the rhythm is wrong. There are other videos which this song is demonstrated properly. If you can't tell the difference between his version and Elliott's version than keep practicing.

[ashfordtheslum]

jeff h kim

i love you

[vikramnarwal]

what about the solo?

[jrmagic43]

thank you!

[xgabox3]

play FOND FAREWELL please!!!

[kubby721]

do you know what he's doing in the bridge?

[potentialcarnie]

peelincaps: This is a good start to say the least. A comment like this is not productive at all; it sounds like you have the correct knowledge of it. If you do have this knowledge then you should post a video response comment of you performing the song. Until then, keep your negative and non-productive comments to yourself please. Thanks.

[smpl187]

Thank you!

[ForToz2Freedom]

What is the tuning for this song?

[shizzle412]

this tutorial is in standard.

the actual song is played Almost 1 full step down

[theinfideluk]

Hey mate thanks for taking the time to post this. It really helps. Cheers!

[whoribund]

Hey, thank you very much, I have a horrible ear for chords and your video helped me a lot. You're very talented.

[katjadickauf]

good job nice :)

[snpazoki]

man your freaking amazing, youve really brought back my guitar playing to life, thanks for the vids and keep em coming

[NitaBMe]

Thanks i love this song and your tutorials! I have a request if you're interested "Go by"

[shizzle412]

you voice is relaxing,

goes perfect with you guitar playing :)

[davetube75]

Thanks for the help!

[saez001]

Thank you very much. I'm asking for "going nowhere" too...

[iJScruff]

I'm guessing there is no humanly possible way to play the solo section (that is, it needs 2 guitars)?

[Phillip8116]

This really helped thanks, if you ever have time do you think you can do "Going nowhere" from new moon???

[akaeon]

hey thanks alot your stuff has really helped me out and it is much better than most of the stuff out there. I normally use cougarman7's stuff also of the yellowbirdproject but when i go to look youtube said his account has been suspended i don't know if you even know him but do you know what happened? i think he had an actual website do you know that?

also does anyone else know?

thanks again man good job and keep playing

[astronhat]

his new alias is cougarman8

[ACofOntario]

awesome work! You're my only subscription on youtube.

Any easier Smith songs you could tutorial?

[lawinnn]

What kind of guitar is that? I'm guessing it's a Martin HD-28...what a great sounding guitar. good job on the song.

[themadmarty]

The one he is using looks like my guitar, which is a Yamaha FG-335. Some of the fret dots are in different places, but I'm willing to bet it's a Yamaha. The original version of Angel in the Snow was done on a 12-string, but many of his other acoustic songs sound identical to the sound I get on my 335.

[jeffhkim2501]

Hey, thanks so much for checking the video out and the compliment. The guitar i'm playing here is a martin d-2r. it's a cheap version of the d-28 that martin used to sell a while back.

[neurolyse]

Hey Jeff. It's guys like you that make the internet worth while. Sharing your tremendous talent with others is very cool. I'm sure Elliott would be proud to know you.

[willymcgee42]

You gotta keep your finger on that high G during most of the song dude... listen for it. other than that amazing job. i like your work.

[surfthemusic]

Awesome job man, first good elliot smith tutorial I've found

[boofneenee]

Im pumped your back because I learned most of your songs and itching to learn more.

Please Please Please I need help with one of my favorite songs by Elliot titled "Going Nowhere". I watched this other guy who is French play it and fell in love with the song. However, he moves to fast and I thin its a different tuning.

If you have time i would really love to see this one and I know for a fact many ES listeners would love this one too.

thanks Josh

[Purolatorcj]

i agree, going nowhere is my favorite song and i would love to know how to play it.

[thebrooke]

Awesome! I'm so glad you're back. :)

[sk8tolive123]

Great video... I know how to play this thanks to you.

[annalisameow]

yey! thanks so much for posting this!! glad you're back! :)

[davisher2]

[supradude7891]

[bigmeatMARCO]

[Stillillgal]

[supradude7891]

[pressureofdays]
