I’m doing her finger picking course. I learned it in my own and learned to use my pinky as an anchor. Will try without! Also I like that she is human and makes mistakes here and there and keeps going! I have to learn internalize this, especially with singing, but guitar as well.
Dearest Lauren, Im from Phillipines ,though you dont know how to speak tagalog .I will make a request .try to make it easy in playing guitar .The song "ANAK" every Filipino loves so much this song and few can play it by means of guitar because not easy .this song was composed by FREDDIE AGUILAR famous singer here,and loves of every FILIPINOS because of his composed song that touches our hearts.And I think ANAK was translated too for a varies language all over the world. Hope to see you pLaying ANAK in guitar in easy way ...THANK YOU AND GOD BLESS...LOVE ,CATHY FROM PHILIPPINES.
I think I have heard of Freddie Aguilar. Thank you for watching my videos all the way from the Philippines. My video editor that helps me with these videos is from the Philippines as well.
I know the lyrics aswell . Laura you gave me the song country roads, and I am very pleased with it. As a Dutch guy I know both songs country roads and Anak by words. It would be amazing if you play anak aswell. Warm greetings to you and for the guy from the Filipino : tabee disini Bert.Ada baik? You are the best teacher on line Laura. Your patience and clear showing how to play a song, makes you my favorite. Thank you for that. Sincerely; Bert de Vries, the Netherlands
Hello Catalina, i just googled this on youtube Freddie Aguilar - Anak [Official Lyric Video with Chords] 24M views 7 yr ago more Viva Records Is this the one you are suggesting? It is very pretty and seems to be mostly am, f and g so not too difficult. I am just a beginner so i dont know you would strum it. Are you a member of the lauren bateman 7 level course? There are probably lots of guitarists in the course that could help you if you joined.
I‘m so happy about finding your Channel you are the reason why i took my guitar into my hands. I did all three beginnermistakes an stop playing angree. Whatching your Videos is pur motivation thanks a lot😄
Thank you, Jessie for the recommendation. I get lots of song requests so I cannot guarantee that I will get to it, but I will definitely add it to my list.
Song request: Wild Montana Skies, by John Denver. It's one of my all time favorites, and the version I play just doesn't sound nearly as good as his does.
Thank you, Grufus for the recommendation. I get lots of song requests so I cannot guarantee that I will get to it, but I will definitely add it to my list.
Thanks for uploading. If you have a minute come watch my cover of Dan and Shay - I'm an independent artist and think you might dig my sound. Really appreciate it!
a bit confuse in Time Stamp 5:38 you did mention it is 8note 1+2+3+4+ and i got that; Time Stamp 6:15 it became 12+3+4+ that is only 7note. the (+) between 12 became imaginary?
Hey Lauren no idea of difficulty but I was thinking, yesterday? beetles/paul McCartney. Thanks for considering👍 Ha you actually mentioned yesterday in this vid lol
Love your guitar strap, like Mexican blanket or Navajo style. The link to Amazon didn't that me to that strap. I did see one on amazon one kinda like yours by Fender but it is only 2" wide, yours looks to be wider.
Thank you, Raul for the recommendation. I get lots of song requests so I cannot guarantee that I will get to it, but I will definitely add it to my list.
If you play the full C with four fingers I assume that the pluck would be on the 6th string. Why does everyone teach three finger C and F chords, it’s not that har to add that one extra finger. The friend who introduced me to guitar back in the 70’s showed me both and I’ve always played them that way, if would feel un-natural to play them with only three fingers. Also, to play along in the proper key, you need the capo on the second fret.
Nice video- I suggest you pause between explanations and playing, or count off so people know tempo and can play with you. Also, keep chords and fingering chart up in corner of screen.
hi Lauren, Im trying to play the finger picking way, Just not sounding right, this is not my first picking song either, i can play landside by fleetwood mac well, am i missing something, ? kind regards kieren
I love the picking style, finally got the the picking down....thankfully i picked a little before in the past, now i just gotta be patient and hopefully the continuous speed to play it all the way through will come in time...practicing everyday...wish me luck. I love your teaching style Lauren...thank you
Thank you, Robert for the recommendation. I get lots of song requests so I cannot guarantee that I will get to it, but I will definitely add it to my list
Very few people can do this song with justice, I know it seems just like another pretty song, but if you are from West Virginia or have family from there, it becomes personal. Two of my great-grandfathers were West Virginia coal miners, my grandmother and grandfather were both born in coal camps. So it is special. You did it good, thank you.
I'm your 53 year old lady student😂I will try to practice this with Travis picking.. I forgot my guitar since I got married.. But because of this pandemic. I can't go home for vacation and I start playing and practicing guitar again it's a good alternative for homesickness.. Thank you I come across to your channel...
Excellent teaching and effort!!! I’m a beginner. I find this video very instructive for beginners who wish to learn the Travis Picking style. Keep up with your great effort in teaching others how to play the guitar. Many more guitar learners will benefit from your instructions. Well done 👍
Lauren, I’m taking guitar lessons here in San Diego. Your instruction technique is wonderful and easy to follow. I really enjoy augmenting my live instruction with your videos. ❤
Awesome video lady. I'll try and compete with you soon. lol John Denver is my all time favorite male singer. I named my band Country Roads. Favorite female singer (other than you) equals Dolly Parton. I love talented people.
Another excellent lesson. Do you have tutorial on proper finger picking position like where would you place your pinky. Should the hand be near saddle and resting on something or is in the air? I really struggle with finger picking that involves thumb ,1,2 and 3rd fingers.
Thanks Lauren. Inspiring video. Can I ask is it the recommended technique, when Travis picking, to drop the hand down to play D type chords or could one leave the hand in place and pluck the alternating bass ( 3rd string) with the first finger?
Thank you, Toryuth for the recommendation. I get lots of song requests so I cannot guarantee that I will get to it, but I will definitely add it to my list.
I was wondering if your Travis Landslide fingerpicking works on this song, Country Roads. They are a little different, but just wondering, Thanks, great job on the lesson.
Beautiful and amazing music 🎶🎶🎶.. Lesson Thanks for sharing Very helpful and good👍 Do keep posting Warm regards and best wishes The UnknownManCub 👍😎👨🏭
Great lesson Lauren. I guess I just noticed it because this is the first fingerpicking lesson I've seen you do, but you have beautiful hands. Just an observation.
Why couldn't I had known a girl like this guitarist in high school.... she could have entertained me on my front porch 🤣 LOL.. good listening.... Lauren
I’m getting it. My Travis picking is now almost up to doing this. I’ll just listen and practice a lot more but, thanks to you, I now know I will get it.
Thanks so much i cant wait ro get home to try this ive played for twenty something yrs but learned alittle hear and there so at 39 i deacited to gdt fit learn guitar firstly tune and replace a string on my oun and boy all the video are fantastic some i have a hard time getting but im practicing atleast alittle every day thanks agakn
Thank you, Shirley, for the recommendation. I get lots of song requests so I cannot guarantee that I will get to it, but I will definitely add it to my list.
Awesome! Your tuturiol videos are by far, the best for beginners!! Can you do a video on how to play "If Tomorrow Never Comes" By Garth Brooks? Thank you.
When I learned slack key guitar. My first lesson was to practice alternating base before my next lesson. It is so important. My teacher made sure that I kept the beat of the alternating base. I love this song . I change the words to IZ 's "to the place I belong West Makaha" (where I use to live). Just a music story. Thank u for all u do for the online music community. And that darn F chord still my nemesis. Someday it will sound good.
Thank you, Joselyn for the recommendation. I get lots of song requests so I cannot guarantee that I will get to it, but I will definitely add it to my list.

Thank you so much, may I ask at what tempo do you play the Travis picking on the demo? I love the way you teach, and how you make everything easy and fun, the only person that actually taught Travis picking so well that it took me only one week to master the rhythm. P.S Your voice is so lovely that I wish someday I could attend one of your performances.
Thank you for all the help Lauren. I still can't beieve that you try to reply to all the comments. No one else does that. My song wish, a little different path, Tom Petty's American Girl. The guitar plays a prominent role in the song and it's a fun song. I think easy chords too. What do you think?
@@LaurenBateman Just another reason that you have such wide appeal. You add your personal touch. Save yourself this moment and don't treplay to this one. Thank you.
Hi and thank you for all these awesome videos! When I clicked on the Chord Chart link, there was an option to get a PDF version in a TH-cam Vault but it says the link is broken.
If you were to use a metronome, what speed would you be on while fingerpicking this version of country roads? I watched one of your tutorials where one of the tips was to use a metronome, which turned to be a great tip for me. Thank you.
@@LaurenBateman You make it look so effortless. I'm practicing everyday to get there. Country Roads was always one of my favorites. I used to strum it for my kids when they were young. Now at 72, I'm learning to finger pick everything. It sounds so much better. Bridge Over Troubled Water is another song I love and am learning to finger pick.
What i notice from this lesson is the E(m) chord in Country Road doesn't have anything to do with the song since we're picking the 6th 3rd 2nd and 1th. Or is there something i missed out.

@@LaurenBateman thank you for the consideration.
Hi. Could you do us a favour and mic your guitar so we can hear it more and clearer please. Thanks
It is miced. With finger picking it may be a little softer. I would recommend turning the volume way up.
@@LaurenBateman The you are louder. Your volume is ok. It is being able to clearly hear your guitar. Thanks

a bit confuse in Time Stamp 5:38 you did mention it is 8note 1+2+3+4+ and i got that; Time Stamp 6:15 it became 12+3+4+ that is only 7note. the (+) between 12 became imaginary?
It is still an 8th note strumming pattern.
Hey Lauren no idea of difficulty but I was thinking, yesterday? beetles/paul McCartney. Thanks for considering👍
Ha you actually mentioned yesterday in this vid lol
I'm surprised I haven't done a video on that yet!
Love your guitar strap, like Mexican blanket or Navajo style. The link to Amazon didn't that me to that strap. I did see one on amazon one kinda like yours by Fender but it is only 2" wide, yours looks to be wider.
Mine is handmade from a friend.
Ma'am can you please do the finger picking pattern for John Denver's "Authograph" please...
Thank you, Raul for the recommendation. I get lots of song requests so I cannot guarantee that I will get to it, but I will definitely add it to my list.
If you play the full C with four fingers I assume that the pluck would be on the 6th string. Why does everyone teach three finger C and F chords, it’s not that har to add that one extra finger.

Because so many songs use the 3 fingered version. Better to have options.
Nice video- I suggest you pause between explanations and playing, or count off so people know tempo and can play with you. Also, keep chords and fingering chart up in corner of screen.
Thanks for the tips!
I’m confused with the E minor. Do you actually play the E minor? Could that just be open?
It could be. But it’s great to have the chord as a place holder.
hi Lauren, Im trying to play the finger picking way, Just not sounding right, this is not my first picking song either, i can play landside by fleetwood mac well, am i missing something, ? kind regards kieren
Those is my version of the sing. It's Travis picking. I have a video on Travis picking. Search Lauren Bateman Travis picking.
fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!!.....................................................................................👍😊👍
Thank you! Cheers!
Travis picking is always confusing because everytime I look into it it's played differently.
There are variations. Pick one and stick to it
I love the picking style, finally got the the picking down....thankfully i picked a little before in the past, now i just gotta be patient and hopefully the continuous speed to play it all the way through will come in time...practicing everyday...wish me luck. I love your teaching style Lauren...thank you
Oh that's awesome. Congrats!
Hi, what is the Travis picking pattern for the F barre chord? Thanks!
Played like a G chord
Do you know any Eagles songs to teach fingerpicking or just lots other fingerpicking songs to teach?
I have a playlist of Fingerpicking songs. Haven't fingerpicked any Eagles tunes yet.

I have not
Would like to see and hear your avett february 7 lesson, love your teaching technique.
Aww thanks Scotty!
Can you do a video on how to play BEN of michael jackson in fingerstyle and normal.

My dearest Lauren. Thank you so much.I learn a lot from you. May God shower you more with graces, favors and blessings.
You are so welcome!
I notice you use the 3 finger cords, can this be played with 2 finger cords?
Sure can. I would probably strum though, not fingerpick. I have a strum lesson on country roads too.
I'm your 53 year old lady student😂I will try to practice this with Travis picking.. I forgot my guitar since I got married.. But because of this pandemic. I can't go home for vacation and I start playing and practicing guitar again it's a good alternative for homesickness.. Thank you I come across to your channel...

10:00 I'd hear it better without the singing. Appreciate the tutorial all the same.
Thanks Jonny. As a singer, I teach through singing a lot. My students over the years have found it helpful but thanks for the feedback.
Excellent teaching and effort!!!

Another excellent lesson. Do you have tutorial on proper finger picking position like where would you place your pinky. Should the hand be near saddle and resting on something or is in the air?
I really struggle with finger picking that involves thumb ,1,2 and 3rd fingers.
Ahh, I'm not sure if I have a video that goes over those specifics. I do in the finger picking course for sure.
I may have missed it, but I don't think you explain why the base chord changes. You say its a six string chord but em isn't a six chord?
Em is a six string chord. Bass is the lowest note of a chord.
Have you heard Brandi Carlile’s haunting version? Verse: G Em Am Em (2X). Chorus: G Am Em (2X) Bridge: Am Em B7 Em (2X). Super cool.
I did!!!!! I love her.
nice tutorial ma'am...
Thank you! 😃
Wish you would teach the song looking for love by Johnny lee

@@LaurenBateman I struggle with the chird changes. If anyone can make it easy to understand, you can.
Thanks Lauren. Inspiring video. Can I ask is it the recommended technique, when Travis picking, to drop the hand down to play D type chords or could one leave the hand in place and pluck the alternating bass ( 3rd string) with the first finger?

Awesome. I love your lessons and your way of teaching. Could you do Puff the magic dragon in one of your lessons ?
Oh that's a great one!
really love all ur class just started learning how to play guitar ...hope i can understand more from you
Awesome! Welecome :)
What i notice from this lesson is the E(m) chord in Country Road doesn't have anything to do with the song since we're picking the 6th 3rd 2nd and 1th. Or is there something i missed out.
Yep, I use it as a place holder. A lot of times with Em you don't hit the fretted strings.
