how can britney make millions and this guy that sings from his heart be so unappreciated? here you see true talent, a real musician. the diffrence between them is that hes not in it for the money, he just makes beautiful songs that reaches into your soul and comforts you. shows what kind of a man jose is. this song is very special to me

He duets with Zero 7 is the business, in fact their version of crosses comes very close to this original. José is a legend. I've seen him live, as have other swedish and scandinavian artists. There is something about their music, possibly influenced by there surroundings and weather, but it's cold, bluesy, but ever so soulful where the tempo is at a unusual beat you have to try and listen to every note being played and sung. It's simply beautiful. Another is Ane Brun. Lullaby for grown-ups.

@schiftyfive55 Sure you play with figers, but also it´s possible to do it with nails. It´s a reminiscence from flamenco guitar playing, which he studied between other styles (thus you can play more intense notes at some point, as if you were using a pick). In fact his Alhambra guitar is made in Spain by a famous brand, top quality there. You shouldn´t criticize any other lads without knowing all the facts. So chridal, you´re right about the reason for his nails. Cheers.

he plays an alhambra model. he actually sent me an email with the model no but i lost it. doesnt seem to be a unique design, just a mic'ed up bridge i guess.

good to see this vid is still getting a lot of views. he deserved it. its ace to play on guitar too. about the tunings. he plays in DADF#BE (nearly all of veneer). some songs like crosses, when performed live he raises the capo one fret up, to spice the sound up.
hope that helped.
