+JustinGuitar Songs you are awesome dude! and you obviously play guitar like the greats BUT... your singing sounds restrained.. I think you could do "fake" falsettos or something... just scream(sing) like you were drunk... and please dont think that im saying that you cant sing... youre really awesome haha

I am an absolute beginner at guitar. I got my first guitar 1 week ago, it's surprising that I managed to learn the intro to "Nothing Else Matters" in just 3 days. That's when I got the desire to learn this song. Simply all praise for this channel and all the effort you put into the video, congratulations. One of the best classes on You Tube.
I started learning guitar in 2020 and had this video saved since then. I would always come back and learn a little bit of this song at a time as it felt too overwhelming at the start. Today I finally put all the parts together and it felt great to play along with the original recording. Thanks Justin for another excellent tutorial.
Clive you're not alone !... I started at 61 ! and this last week started learning the piano, not to mention a dabble on a harmonica : () ... keep going !!!
Its funny how you listen to this song on the radio and it sounds pretty simple but theres more to it than you think. Thanks for the tutorial Justin cheers.
This guys lessons are great, but he also plays so clear and crisp. It’s so easy to work out the tune just by listening to him cover the song at the start. He’s a very gifted musician like that
Justin keep bringing it my man. You always seem to nail it where everyone else plays something that's "almost" right. My ear doesn't like almost right, it likes how you play the songs. Thanks for teaching me this magnificent piece of rock history by a true legend.
I sang my heart out to Space Oddity when I was 10 years old and it was No. 1 in the UK 1975 ... the melancholic deep space loneliness of that first opening strummed Fmaj7 chord has stayed with me since ... now I'm 50 years old ... most songs get used up over x number of listens, but Space Oddity remains wondrous to me 40 years later ... RIP David Bowie
It's actually very intuitive...because it helps you to understand the relationship of lyrical melody and when the chord changes occur during the song. It keeps you in time. Great work Justin, as always!
Hi Justin, i´ll give you a big hug just for bringing this amazing song to us! David Bowie was an exceptional musician, an icon. I love playing and singing this song because it has that certain vibe, that special energy. Thank you very much for taking us by the hand with all your knowledge and bringing us closer to all these techniques and songs! I've wanted to say that for a long time, well - finally done 😃👍 THANK YOU Justin, ...and RIP dear David
After thirty+ years of acoustic playing, I am kicking myself just now learning this classic tune. You make learning these songs a real joy. I never noticed before, of all the times I've heard Space Oddity, how much it seems Bowie was channeling Bo Diddley!
A truly spectacular tutorial. It runs fast, but rewind and rewatch until you understand, and you will play a truly gorgeous tune. AND ALL HIS TUTORIALS ARE THIS CLEAR AND COHERENT!! I will be watching this religiously for a month.
You played this brilliantly, this song has such a particular groove and its complicated because Bowie was so complicated. Such a talent sorely missed but you do him proud.
Yaay! You're back! I'd thought that maybe you had abandoned this channel for other projects for a while. Thank you for all of the patience, hard work and effort that you must put in to produce these videos.
Wow! I have played this song since it was released and you made a huge change in the way I play it now!! I just love the way you ALWAYS go back to the artist's way of playing AND making it obvious that everythins is about choices. There is always another chord or way to render a song and by teaching us how you hear it and or see it, you are showing a remarkable sense of ethic for both viewers and artists. I just love your channel Sir and from the bottom of my heart and in all sincerity, thank you for all the work you put into this! I always send new guitartists to you, because I know that they are in good hands!!
I'm sure you must get flooded with comments on here, Justin, but I just would like to express my gratitude towards you for taking time out of your life to teach us songs. It really means a lot, thank you. Cheers!
Many thanks for the super thanks and supporting the channel. It means a lot. Cheers 😊 | Richard_close2u | JustinGuitar Official Guide & Approved Teacher www.justinguitar.com
Very good as usual Justin. I think the effect at 10:00 sounds better going up the strings, its supposed to represent the launch of the rocket so increasing pitch does a better job IMO.
+JustinGuitar Songs youre great!! my name is gonzalo from panama city panama!! central america man!! rock n roll!! my favorite bands are the who, beatles and zeppelin!! thanx to you i learned the stairway solo back in 2009!! thank you so much a big hug hope we could meet one day!!
So you say that the rocket is falling towards the observer? Because the dopller effect marks it's just like Justin did. th-cam.com/video/h4OnBYrbCjY/w-d-xo.html
Justin you are the BEST. I bought (another) guitar last week and I spent twenty minutes discussing your guitar lessons with the seller who's a professional player and he admitted that he picked up a few things from you. Another great lesson.
Very well done, Justin. Learning these chords to this song has been a nice experience, because you're approachable and humble about various techniques. I have learned a lot of unusual chords, the song's unusual rhythms, and that cool bridge of sliding bar chords. Thank you. Also, RIP to you Sir, David Bowie.
thanks for this great lesson. Although strictly I'm not a beginner , this lesson is very interesting for me. You have the talent to put in something special for every player in your lessons regardless of his or her level. Will be buying your book when it comes out...
I agree Denis. Been playing for ages but always learn a little something from Justin. Love to see him teach Life on Mars.Really a keyboard song but really interesting chords and an amazing progression.
I appreciate you singing the lyrics, but especially appreciate your ability to place the chord changes within those lyrics. I build charts as I'm learning a song and I find this particularly helpful. Thanks Justin!
I was learning this song from another channel, you hadn't uploaded for months and miraculously one of the first videos you put up is this song. Very ironic. Good lesson as always.
Heard this on the radio today and decided that I wanted to learn it.Glad you're the one teaching it. And with so many different ways to play all those chords, it is a wanderer anybody learns how to play 😂
Glad to see you're back Justin! I checked my TH-cam account everyday faithfully waiting for a video. Lol Been following your videos and going to your sight for almost 10 years. Keep up the nice work!! Appreciate all that you do
Welcome back Justin! It just so happens that i was working at this song, on my own and you just made my day. Thanks for the pointers you are THE MAN! And i also want to point out the fact, that after following your lessons at your webpage, i am able to play- in less than a year- tunes like these, (and some harder than this) is just freaking miraculous! I play together with my friends and my brother who happens to be a great guitarist, and he can't believe my progress!
I'm so glad you started making videos again on this channel, and this is one of my favorite songs! Thanks Justin, dont think i would have ever learned to play without your videos.
Finally landing my bar chords successfully thanks to this tutorial and my determination to get this classic tune under my belt. It’s been quite the challenge for me. Thanks Justin, you’re a star!
Thank you for this lesson! I have to play this sing soon and I was having trouble with the sound of the D7. I had tried putting the 7 in the bass and leaving it out on the 2nd string, which sounded better than a typical D7, but the F# in that you put in the bass solves the whole issue. The 3rd in the bass keeps the 7 in the high end from dominating the sound of the chord. On a less mundane note, thank you for making David Bowie accessible to so many people now that we've lost the man himself.
From France, love your way of playing.. but I'm such a beginner in practicing guitar... anyway, from now on I'm following your channel because your tutorials please me very much ! You do a great job ! ... Rock in Peace among the stars, dear Bowie
Hi Justin ! This lesson is top ! So generous to share your experience. You're a really good teacher. So bad you're not in Paris... I could have lesson with you ! Thanks.
Always a pleasure watching your pedagogic tutorials. Your dedication and respect/love for the songs are bloody compelling and inspirational . It's also really fascinating looking up your tutorials of (quite simple) songs I've learned long time ago, just to realise that I (as and exemple) really need to shape up on my old lazy strumming technique. Keep up the good work, Justin!
Yeah that Fmaj7/E really is the space oddity chord, the quark quaternion space tension chord, sets the whole feel when it vamps back and forth w E minor, cool sound . A lot of times Bowies stuff is core acoustic guitar , but w overdubs and studio magic overtop is different. Never stopped to figure this one out, I was just staring off into the sky today, nice day, watching the loudspeaker roll by, space oddity just sort of fit the moment, how cool
Great video again! The main reason David did not use bar cords was that he did not play guitar that often and found it very difficult to play a bar on an acoustic! Some people just don't have the strength in their wrist to accomplish this unless they do exercises to strengthen them...Keep up the great work and I'll see you on TH-cam!
I've noticed that Jimi Hendrix also seemed to prefer using his thumb this way, instead of the classic bar chords. But he had really big hands, so my guess he found it easier that way. I've tried it myself over the years, but I really suck at using the thumb instead of bar chords, lol.
THANK YOU JUS! Not many GOOD tutes on YT for this song! Bowie's BEST! Have no trouble playing it but getting some of the chord voicings right is tricky! Thanks bro!
very nice... if it helps anybody, same strumming as cortez the killer for begginers and there's a graphic there. easy to practice. thanks as always justin. awesome job!
I watched a few tutorials of this great classic and no one seems to want to try to explain the psychedelic little instrumental after ".........may God's love be with you". I did read your disclaimer about the tasty electric solos. I have listened to different versions and it seems there are several ways it is done. It never occurred to me to use a pick scratch. I find that keeping the D chord fingered after the pause and then moving that shape up the fretboard (with effects) whilst strumming seems to work well. Of course you need to build up to a crescendo, emphasiisng the first beat of each bar, speeding up your strumming (straight 8s) and intensifying it as you move up the fretboard, say to the octave of the regular open D. A Deluxe Memory Man or Behringer Time Machine seems to work well, but other effects could be added, maybe flanger, tremolo or both. Different versions done by Bowie have variations of this little instrumental and it lends itself to experimentation. To me, this instrumental is an integral part of the song, especially if you are in party mood and it is turned up a little loud! It would be interesting to see how the D shape coupled with your suggestion of the pick scratch would work. The idea, I think is to make it sound a bit chaotic, which seems to be an ingredient of psychedelia. BTW, I enjoy your tutorials because they are accurate, concise and thorough and you explanations have all the right details. Many thanks. RIP David.
R.I.P :(
Tribute lessons for Heroes and Ziggy Stardust now live.
Thank you Justin, what a great way to celebrate his memory. I'll do my best on this one and try to not ruin it !

Still a newbie to guitar playing (at 57!) but you're helping, and inspiring, so please keep giving us more!

Clive Bradley are you’d till playing?
How's it going now
Hang on in there bro, keep strummin. 👍🏻😎👊🏻
Cole Waldron Yep, still strummin’ and still enjoying making a noise!
Bowie always has those great chord riffs in the middle of the song...such a natural song writer...a true great r.i.p starman
Its funny how you listen to this song on the radio and it sounds pretty simple but theres more to it than you think. Thanks for the tutorial Justin cheers.
This guys lessons are great, but he also plays so clear and crisp. It’s so easy to work out the tune just by listening to him cover the song at the start. He’s a very gifted musician like that
This song captures the mystery of space in such a beautiful melodic way, what a classic.

" Ground control to Major E minor " well, that's confusing ;-)
you must be quite dumb if you find that confusing !!!
It's a joke
why is it a joke? why not share with us how you play it ??
+fenderland1 He has substituted the words 'E Minor' for 'Tom'.
Ah hahahahahahaahahahahahahahahahahaahahahahahahahahahahahaahahahahahahahahaahahah.

I was just about to upload the same up/down sequence for people but you beat me to it. Thanks. Justin really should do this himself.
Thanks!
Is the drumming pattern always the same ? Or does it change at th second part of the song ?!
David Bowie better not quit his day job, because Justin nailed this song.
Do you think so.. I think he needs capo on fret 2.. Have you heard Justin sing a bit of heroes.. It's beautifully sung by justin
David smiles down on all of us now.
RIP
Thank you so much , this song is awesome and how awesome was David Bowie .

I appreciate you singing the lyrics, but especially appreciate your ability to place the chord changes within those lyrics. I build charts as I'm learning a song and I find this particularly helpful. Thanks Justin!
This is another great lesson Justin. It's a fitting, lasting, tribute.
‘i’m f minoring in a c peculiar f’ truly the most iconic line in this song
David was surely a genius
Justin is one of the top teachers in the world. Hands down. Incredible talent!
Loved the attention to detail with the muted strumming. Helped a lot in understanding.
a must know acoustic song. nice chord progression, and very cool sounding with or without vocals.
I was learning this song from another channel, you hadn't uploaded for months and miraculously one of the first videos you put up is this song. Very ironic. Good lesson as always.

Really well done. Good pace and essential elements included as you go!
Glad you think so! Cheers 😊

Great teachings Justine. I keep bumping into your videos on youtube ranging from CCR to Marley to now this. Great taste in music I see. Cheers!
Great lesson first full tutorial iv seen for a while . Nice one Justin .
I'm thinking Bowie probably wouldn't care what way we play it, as long as we are using the Bb--Am--G--F chords. Rock on Justin.
Major E minor, im laughing my ass off, keep teaching and preaching Justin!
And the F minor look very C chord today XD
IAM laffing my ass off too...but I git it tho..help me out alot..I've learned alot from this guy..keep up the good work Justin...
GREAT guitar lesson. Thank you !!!!
wow i dont expect new song today. Thank You Justin!
Yeah that Fmaj7/E really is the space oddity chord, the quark quaternion space tension chord, sets the whole feel when it vamps back and forth w E minor, cool sound . A lot of times Bowies stuff is core acoustic guitar , but w overdubs and studio magic overtop is different. Never stopped to figure this one out, I was just staring off into the sky today, nice day, watching the loudspeaker roll by, space oddity just sort of fit the moment, how cool
That launch sound though... Genius

Thumbs up for going over the rhythm pattern before jumping into all the chords.
