Actually not to sound like an ass BUT! Even someone who doesnt and cant play guitar can tell if what they are listening to is kinda on the crappy side. And Im sorry but this guy does need some work before I say its good.
Anyone cannot listen & play what they hear exactly, unfortunately. Which is exactly my problem with this cover. You are not doing this amazing song justice. Either write your own Original material or cover songs you can pull off. In essence, you are a poor robot...
I've been listening to Tommy 's version of course. But never mind all this my friend. It seems nobody on youtube wants anything more than insincere praise. Far be it from me to actually tell the truth, no matter how painful. You seem like a nice guy. I intend no offense to you. Keep playin man...
Believe it or not, that is an Ibanez acoustic!
Thanks for the compliment; I really need to update this as my playing is a bit better now :)

Heh heh, thanks for the comment!
This was taken over a year ago and since then I have had a tendon injury to my picking hand.
That is almost better so I'll post a new video soon to reflect the way I play now.

To play this song correctly you have to listen to it & play what you hear exactly. You have not done that. Another bad cover...

Thanks for the comment, unfortunately I disagree with you :)
The object is not to sound like Tommy Emmanuel but to sound like myself.
Anyone can listen and play what they hear exactly; that doesn't make a good musician, just a good robot.

I welcome any constructive critisism :)
I was actually wondering whether you meant the version off "Only" or the live version everyone listens to on here.
Just interested, they are very different, even the melody line.

I find that the live videos of Tommy I like more then his studio work. He is so much better live than in the studio. But thats just my opnion.

Excellent, I kind of like the way you remark the melodic lines. Keep working on the timing though :)
