Pekka Ruuska - Rafaelin Enkeli arranged for fingerstyle guitar by Omnilion

Greetings, folks!

This time I bring you some Finnish music to hear. This song was a major hit back in the day, around 80s/90s, and I remember this from my childhood very well.
A friend asked me to make a doom version of this song, but since it is very hard to do just by myself with no other means of recording, I'll toss the idea to my bandmates, see if we can come up with something as a group.
When you, ye, YOU, see this, I hope this'll satisfy at least a little bit.
In the meantime, here is my fingerstyle version. I got inspired by acoustic players, and a big influence on the rhythmic qualities of the song comes from John Mayer's fingerstyle playing, utilising downstrokes on the index, middle and ring fingers.

Once again I play my trusty Alvarez AD-60S-N, with a capo on the 7th fret, standard tuning.

Hope you enjoy it! :)
