Good job, one of the best arrangments and playing of this songs I found on yt. Keep it up!

[Jazzguts]

QsztaN,thanks for your very supportive words and glad you liked it,Vic.

[KruisenEnMollen]

Mooi arrangement. Hoe neem je de gitaar zo helder op ? Is mij samen met video nog niet gelukt bij ditzelfde nummer. Graag een tip.

[Jazzguts]

Kruisen... ik neem via een mixer op,dit is een electro akoestische gitaar, Heb jij zelf ook een eigen arrangement van dit stuk gemaakt anders wordt het meer van het zelfde,groet Vic.

[GirlyBirder22]

Amazing stuff - I'll definitely be studying your video and working on this one! Thank you for posting it.

[gerrardthebest09]

LUVE IT =) xxx

[sampogi0518]

sweet sound! like it so much!

[Jazzguts]

@sampogi0518 tenderness is something much appreciated in these shredding times,there has to be contrast,Vic,

[jp0pz]

Great interpretation its all there and then some

[Jazzguts]

@jp0pz thanks always something should remain to guess about.... Vic.

[frankygt007]

He victor, Dit is genieten hoor... Zou je het erg vinden als ik jouw nummer gebruik als backing-track voor mijn stem? Zit nu mee te zingen en er zit zo'n lekkere flow in je spel...

[Jazzguts]

Franky, bedankt voor je compliment,maar dat heb ik liever niet want dit is bedoeld als een instrumentale track en is ook zodanig gearrangeerd,groetjes Vic.

[frankygt007]

Ik snap het victor. Je hebt gelijk. Er hoeft niets aan toegevoegd te worden... :-)

[MLA888Forever]

This is simply stunning. Your sound quality is AMAZING! Thanks for the post!

min :-)

[Jazzguts]

@MLA888Forever thanks for your very enthusiastic comment, cheers Vic.

[shecky308]

Hey,can you do this number on the gb-20 with the backroumd,thanks!

[Jazzguts]

@ shecky308, a nice idea,however I must stay the acoustic nylon string still has my favor, thanks for joining in,Vic.

[shecky308]

[DustyWiyrick]

[klassworksmusic]

This is beautiful ...

[Jazzguts]

Thanks klassworks,your name says it all,you like class works,lol,Vic.

[beenn15]

I fell asleep watching this and I wasn't even sleepy... Very soothingly jazzy sound...

I just love how your fingers caress the strings until they jizz out every tone so effortlessly... as if they were just there, waiting to be plucked...tenderly.

[Jazzguts]

Thanks beenn,I love Music and this guitar,and when true love comes,in you'll treat everything that way,it comes natural for me,greets Vic.

[chunkymunkyy]

hi! i've been lookg for diff renditions of this song but everyone sounds so similar. this is very nice :)

[Jazzguts]

Yes Chunky,when you make something yourself you're likely to be much more original, I'm not depending on others for my scores and Tabs,I rather make them myself,much more fun, and I can mold everything how I wish, greets Vic.

[thunderb4]

Hi Vic >a great arrangement always enjoy your work and the style.I have a question on tuning on your nylons STANDARD (or) sharp-flats I normally tune to D with a tad of sharp .just curious due to the chord progression you use....Thanks ...

[Jazzguts]

Hi Thunderb4 thanks, well I mostly tune to a tuning-fork which is exactly 144HZ so that's very precise,greets Vic.

[danozwalks]

cant watch this enough

love the way way it flows like water you are a truelly gifted individual my friend !

im in the process of changing my whole

guitar playing style

[Jazzguts]

Thanks dano, long ago I only used to play rhythm guitar and Blues. But when people asked me to play off the top or a gig alone,I always needed a band to back me up,then I started wood-shedding I had to come up with something different,a style I could play alone and sound good and recognizable,Vic.

[danozwalks]

great job dude

loved it hope ya dont mind im gonna copy it with a little practice

i hope i can nail it thanks alot  danoz!!

[Jazzguts]

Hi Danoz, once it's on the Tube anybody can copy anything that's fine,only for Tabs I have my own policy,greets Vic.

[aronchas]

OMG, that's really beautiful, I think this is best than the original song :)

Your axe sound very nice and crisp.

[Jazzguts]

Thanks Aronchas, when I hear a great composition can't help but start looking up some stuff to arrange, greets Amigo.(thanks for friends invitation,ofcourse accepted).

[stef20488]

Wow......

[Jazzguts]

Thanks stef,just hard work get's the job done,Vic.

[Inonly25]

hi jazzguts, i was recommended to come here by archtopbrownie to ask for tabs, please send me if you have time. thanks..

[icaro216]

Meraviglioso!

[Jazzguts]

Thanks icaro, welcome to my channel,Vic.

[JeriLynnKarr]

furiously *claps claps claps claps*

[Jazzguts]

[SteeringForParadise]

Really nice job man, keep up!

[Jazzguts]

Thanks Steering,much appreciated,greets Vic.

[Ritzchimp]

very nice vic. very nice...

i love the way u play the song..

BRILLIANT

1 suggestion -

mayb u want to try and play yesterday once more by carpenter...?

(:

[Jazzguts]

Thanks Ritzchimp, you mean Richard Carpenter, did he do a version as well? you know I have to arrange to play on a single guitar so it will always carry my own signature,that's what I like, greets Vic.

[bandolong]

Victor you are an inspiration! I am now learning your version of this beautiful song. THANKYOU!

[Jazzguts]

Bandolong,you're welcome, I'll send you a personal note on this Tune,greetings Vic.

[rodericksibelius]

Jazzguts, Great arrangement - there are so

arrangements of this piece posted on YouTube

I like THIS, so as NAUDO's and Emad Hamdy's

Please share standard music notation, for a

generous 'donation. If not I have to transcribe out o this Video posting - I hope you will

not sue me just like panda3442 ... Thnx

[Jazzguts]

Thanks Roderick,that was a nice joke with Panda, great sense of humor. It's a pity what happened to Naudo here on YT, he's a friend of mine and fantastic guitarist, just because a few Spanish producers started complaining he got suspended, pure jealousy man, they couldn't deal with his talent. I've sent you a personal mail,greets Vic.

[sjazohn]

morgen begin van eindexamens...

beste manier om te leren?

luister naar deze rustige muziek!

Dankje

[Jazzguts]

Thanks sjazohn,voor goede muziek moet je op de Tube zijn, MTV is alleen commerciele hap, success met je eind examens,groet Vic.

[panda3442]

I'm gonna sue you for this.

I just can't stop listening to this stuff. Guess I have become addicted, and YOU are responsible!

What's even worse, I haven't played my guitar for like 10 years. So I thought I could cure myself by PLAYING the damn thing. Now my fingers are bleeding I'm hungry, and have to go to work, but i CAN'T STOP PLAYING. You ruined my whole life...

But maybe... I mean, it feels SO GOOD...

Hell, can't write anymore, have to listen to this again..

[Jazzguts]

Ha,Ha, Panda3422, you have a great sense of humor man, well I have the responsibility that you started playing again and that means you're inspired, man what did you do all those years? Anyway never to old to lear man, and the callus will start building on the fingers soon, cheers Vic.

[ljthetank06]

WOW!!! Love your tone! I wish to play like you one day! Your feeling is appreciated!

[Jazzguts]

Thanks ljthetank06, always welcome to my channel,greets Vic.

[Broaart]

Thank you Vic for this beautiful rendition of Killing me softly and also for accepting my video response. That's very kind of you, because so many artists won't allow it or they will remove you. Great and beautiful playing. 5 *****! God bless you always!!! Eddie.

[jeff40204020]

PS VIC, Big Cudos taking the time to respond to all these viewers! Makes the music even sweeter!

[jeff40204020]

Hi VIC, GREAT finger work...inspiration for someone trying to find their own creative boundaries, when they get there like yourself! I have many more videos to watch I guess, NICE TO MEET YOURSELF/YOUR WORK!

[Jazzguts]

Thanks jeff4020... pleased to meet you, sometimes the comments are very interesting ,not responding would be like eating the meal but leaving the desert,lol,greets Vic.

[SaxMan426]

I'm sad, Vic. I saw your video here and thought that I had played with you...but I checked your youtube page and saw you were from Netherlands. I was touring Europe with a band in 1988 when I snuck away to a little Italian restaurant outside of Frankfurt called "Chio's" and played a set with a guy who looks a TON like you. Anyway, cheers on the playing as you are a fine picker!

[Jazzguts]

Thanks Saxman426,sorry for the look alike not only physically but probably in playing too, I myself have met great musicians by pure coincidence too and ended up having a terrific night,jamming away the evening, as you can see( and hear I'm also a jazz musician) be hearing from you,nice to meet you,cheers Vic.

[jimmyblackjazz]

Beautiful. First time I've seen one of your solo arrangements. Brilliant.

[Jazzguts]
