Beyond words...I'm in love.

[MenyaZovutSuka]

His voice is too beautiful for words.

[UnicornPrincessxxx]

I think the "NOOOlonger" busted my speakers.

[DanteMoodyFilms]

I'm convinced he's an angel.

@TheHillBrother Talk about unorthodox, have you seen the way James Taylor frets an A chord?

[thenightoul]

@555pontifex i was talking about his right hand but yes, you're right :)

[555pontifex]

@thenightoul I'm pretty sure he uses thumb and two fingers in the bridge. Otherwise he would have no reason to change the fingering of the G bass note to his thumb.

Do you see this?? Nearly 8000 views and not a single dislike. Do you know why?? Because Robin Pecknold along with the rest of Fleet Foxes have changed not only the world of music but the world itself. I will remain a Fleet Foxes fan long after I have lived. This, my friends, is music. Real music. The way it all should be.

this should be cald "when i was 17"

@TheHillBrother Yes I agree with you. What is strange to me is that this song is not that hard at least it doesnt seem hard to me and it can be quite easily played without anchoring. Another thing is that this way of playing makes Robin play all the string just with his index but whatever, he's the man not me. :)))

@thenightoul I don't speak for all guitarists, but i've noticed a lot of 'unorthodox' methods especially among finger-pickers and folk musicians. For singer/guitarists, in my opinion whatever works best for them is totally legit. Anchoring your fingers like this helps with consistency, esp with songs where the vocal melody and the instrument are timed slightly apart.
