Hey I just saw your this video. I love this! Hope I can play this song...

Hi Christiana, Thanks. Yes I arranged this song. I play by ear and "hear"/play the chords for a song. It is then a matter of adding the melody and deciding what sort of style (e.g., rhythm) to play it in. Excellent question though. I have heaps more to learn and if you have any good tips too, please share. Thank!

it is beautiful to watch your fingers dance so smoothly across the guitar (to the music) as well.
