- Hi guys,
Another of my favourite acoustic songs to teach. It sounds great and has a really cool 5/4 time signature. I hope you enjoy.
Cheers

This song is difficult enough to just keep in that weird timing. Singing along takes it to whole new level of skullduggery.
What a genius Nick Drake was.
Great video. Cheers.
Thanks for the comment. Nick Drake was amazing!
Astonishing.
Thanks for sharing. I know this is 6y old, but I wanted to say you should always start a tutorial with a demonstration of the song so people know what the heck it is that they’re even learning to play
Thanks. Yes I do now! I cannot remember why I didn't with this song!
Thank you for this and the added cat bonus...hahaha
Thanks for watching! My cat always seems to bug me when I'm recording! It's like she knows something is up!
Great tutorial of a beautiful song. 👍
Thank you!
Thanks for the effort, this was very useful, a favourite piece
Thank you!
5/4 time...5 bloody 4 time.
Who does that??????? Ridiculously next level.
And weirdly this is the easiest Nick Drake song I've ever tried to learn!
Thank you!
Cheers!
It all got rather confusing after the second chord. Perhaps if you gave the chord fingering notation e.g. 00242X and the full chord sequence through the song, in the text below, it would make more sense and allow you to emphasise the nuances of playing it.
I'll try and find my original transcription and update the text. Thanks for the suggestion.
From what i can see i don't think you can play it with any real degree of confidence . Why else would you not give us a decent rendition of the song , it speaks volumes ! . . . . .
I make a living teaching guitar and have taught this song a number of times. I admit I should have done a play through but it is nothing to do with my playing.
@@cramoguitar Ok , i will give u the benefit of the doubt ! . . . Now u can teach us "Things behind the Sun" , show us slowly the beginning part , no singing ! . . . Cheers
Just had a look definitely going to take some work to get it up to speed!
@@cramoguitar I don't want any excuses , lol . Your a guitarist , you can do it . Not the whole song , mainly the beginning ok ! Good luck ! . . . . .
WHY would you play all the individual bits --- and NOT play the whole song through , so we could judge how close to the original it sounds .
Honestly I can't remember but I would guess I didn't want the video to be any longer. I have to admit if I re did the video I would play it through at the start.
Maybe because it doesn't really sound anywhere near the original song ! . . . . Lol
@@onionjohnny4998 no that's not it.
