I am 70 years old and have terminal cancer. I have always loved this song, and your rendition somehow gives me peace. I think it will help me find my way home ❤
I lost my boyfriend 7 years ago to pancreatic cancer. It was a a tragedy.....he went to the hospital one day and never came home. But while he was living he’d play guitar for me everynite and sing to me. There’s just something mesmerizing as you play each cord. Like a heartbeat. You’ve given me a gift, and I thought you should know. Thank you ❤️
Sorry for your loss Barbara....I lost my girlfriend many years ago and, as musician, music was only the real support who helped me so much. There are things in life that cannot be answered, we are left alone to reflect how cruel it is sometimes but, in this ocean of pain, music is a wonderful medicine that manages to cancel time and space to make everything becomes eternal. In every single composition I try to experience every single emotion being only and exclusively ... myself. I'm more than sure that your boyfriend still continues to play for you from the Heaven.
So pretty, so bittersweet. Eases the sadness I feel thinking of lost days, days I couldn't (not only) find my way home, but also days I didn't know who I was. Beautiful bro!
I dig Justin's playing - story-telling with six-strings. While everyone else is playing a hundred-miles-an-hour, missing everything that blurs past, Justin's Jeep is in 4-wheel low taking in the views...
I can tell you, Ginger Baker is smiling down on you for that powerful rendition of “Can’t find my way home”...some interview way way back in Melody Maker when asked what his fav song was, without hesitation answers “Can’t find my way home”....man, you seriously took that song to a few higher degrees of “Coolness”....thanks brother!
Brings back memories as a 15 year old kid in 1970 who drank too much, smoked too much and hung out in the basement playing pool and poker with the other military brats, listening to records like the Blind Faith album that contained this song. I attended three high schools, four junior high schools and three elementary schools. All of the moving around made me anxious and dizzy and I used to act up. It would be many years before I understood why. This song is drilled into my psyche. Military brats don't have homes. They have stations. You are stationed here, then you are stationed there. In some ways it is nice because you get to see so many places and meet so many people. In other ways, you are affected by your rootlessness, your loneliness and your constant need to please people because nobody wanted to be ostracized and two years was a long time to wait for the next opportunity to make friends. When I meet people who grew up like I did, I feel an instant bond with them. When I hear this song I am reminded of my days of rootlessness and not knowing where home was at.
@Steph Watson Navy brat, so we were always on the coasts, but also spent some time on Guam. When I was 15, i lived on an Army base in New Jersey. My father's ship was ported there. Lots of good memories there.
i grew up the same way. moving every 2 years or so. no lifelong friends, no "home" so to speak. but family was everything. we are all just trying to get home..............& home is where you make it.
@@calusacalusa7936 This was a big help Military Brats: Legacies of Childhood Inside the Fortress Mary Edwards Wertsch When I was 28 years old sitting at my desk in an office with the same people everyday, I thought to myself "Man, this is weird. I haven't felt like this since elementary school." That was the moment my life changed. That was when the nervousness and dizziness began to go away., because before that was college with the constant changes in classrooms and work where I was constantly on the move. Yes, I moved again and I drifted from one job to another throughout my career, but I was OK with it after that one moment of stability. I was cured.
Winter 1970 and I'm freezing my butt off. Jump into my battered Austin Mini with a buddy. Our goal, Miami and warmth . On the floor of the Mini s a used eight-track player and a Blind Faith cartridge. 20 something hours of uninterrupted Blind Faith. My all time favorite album and Can't Find My Way Home is at the top of the list. Justin you play beautifully, regardless of the number of strings. I have several of your books and chord charts and wish I could get just one percent of the beauty you bring our of your instruments. Thanks for a great memory.
These lyrics are in my DNA. One of the most beautiful and stirring songs ever written or performed Your version is lovely. Thank you for sharing. Come down off your throne Leave your body alone Somebody must change You are the reason I’ve been waiting for so long Somebody holds the key Well I’m near the end and I just don’t have the time And I’m wasted and I can’t find my way home I can’t find my way home
"Can't Find My Way Home" - Blind Faith - covered by many musicians over the years, and still one of the greatest rock tunes ever written to this day. Timeless and classic.
I‘m sitting here on the balcony with a glass of white burgundy in my hand, in front of me the cloudy summits of the bavarian alps and i‘m listening to this gorgeous music. Life can be nearly perfect. Thanks!
Just came accross this while I'm sitting here in the hospital recovering from a lung infection. And feeling very down. This just happens to be be one of my very favorite s. Was meant to hear this soothing rendition. Thank you💖
get well soon friend. I might add that "Presence of the Lord" from the same Blind faith album is another timeless musical pieces that keeps me fight back tear.
This has been my favoritest song that captured my soul & have kniwn the lyrics since i was a child...BEFORE i realized the meaning & depth.,which actually hits you from different angles with every passing decade...am 63 now & TRULY am grateful for you keeping it alive 🎶 beautifully done ⛮ peace & unity thru music eternally♡
What incredible musicianship. It just proves that you don't have to be the fastest or the loudest or have a million teeny bopper groupies. You just need soul, and a feel that you can convey to the listener, as that is what it is all about anyway. Justin does this in spades, in every song that I have ever heard him perform. This no exception. His performance of this song is a masterpiece, pure and unencumbered, as I believe only he could do. Thank you Justin for your dedication to your craft.
The tone of this guitar brought to us by Mr. Johnson with his respectful treatment of this song is why people love the sound of a guitar so much. That ebony fretboard really makes the notes ring with a long fade there when he wants it. This rendition really gets to the haunting sadness of the original Blind Faith version. This one bears repeated listenings...
Feeling terribly homesick and directionless the past few days... and then this pops up in my recommendations today. Some things just make you pause for a moment and wonder. Beautiful cover.

Ironically, it was that term that paved the way to its undoing. Clapton convinced Winwood to leave The Spencer Davis Group and start something new together as he was fed up of Cream being termed a supergroup. Ginger Baker got wind of it and insisted on being the drummer and, with Ric Grech as bassist, another 'supergroup' was born. Clapton grew disillusioned and they split after one album.
if this song helps no one else, I want you to know that it has helped me to a depth that I can't describe. It has calmed my nerves during the hardest time in my life. Your art has done its job and I am extremely grateful. You channeled honey from the Gods
Thank you for your Sacrifices and Service Mike ! Did you serve with my pal Patrick Grant ? He was in the AF during that period in England. He was a Machinist/Aircraft Maintainer. Be well Sir, Shawn
How are you reading my mind again?! this song reminds me of my childhood I was born in 73 and this song was a huge hit on the radio. we are blessed to have you Justin! Namaste!
@@patd2765 I was born in 1957. I played this song on my high school radio show. It had, as you indicate, already been around a bit. We liked the import cover of the album better than the American version. :) Although, we thought at the time that it was Ginger Baker's daughter, and I believe that turned out not to be true.
Don't know if he has any neighbors living close; but that would be cool....sit on your back porch, cool drink & listening to JJ play. View out back looks good as well.
Ok, it's been four months and I'm still playing this almost every day. I think it's become an addiction. Every time I need to chill I play it again. Thank you Justin.
You are just amazing. I’m sitting in the hospital recovering from surgery on my broken back and what a perfect song and played with such tone such emotion such talent brought a smile to my face. It’s been a long time since I’ve been able to smile. So thank you for being my first smile.
Don't lose faith brother. I got crushed under a low-boy trailer, 5 years this Halloween. My whole left chest is titanium & I've broken one plate already. Just keep tryin!
Katie Kane hey thanks for kind words. Your right I have to just keep tryin. My surgery went great I had three more vertebrae stretched and secured. And a bunch of other stuff done. Take care of yourself be well and thanks again.
I just want to tell every single one of you in this world that seems so full of hate...i read your kind loving words from all of you and my faith in humanity is restored....just when I think we are doomed to not learn from our mistakes, continue with the destruction of earth and the beauty it has given us....I read the genuine poetic words of all of you..and it gives me hope not all is lost...thank you..
What's with the 231 thumbs down, don't these dullards understand that if it sounded exactly like Stevie's version there would be no reason to listen to it. Sometimes the stupidity takes over the inner ear and makes people oblivious to the fact that this is a complete finger picking arrangement by Justin. Maybe they should open an encyclopedia and look up the definition of "Arrangement". Justin, don't get a big head but you are awesome and were born to play guitar and as I'm sure you well know, just keep making it sound beautiful as always. I've been playing for 40 years and still have a very long way to go to satisfy myself, although It does make me feel good when I get asked to play something and in a few minutes everybody with me is singing along. Maybe the thumbs down people can post some videos, no I think not, it's easier to be miserable and hateful.
Fantastic rendition of that classic tune JJ & I am certain that SW would approve! I love the YT video of Winwood doing this song using his Martin guitar, totally incredible! 👍🎸😉
@@5oclockshadowbanned154 Yes...my best friend & I (we're both from Irish descent & have lost a son) can't help but sob when we watch Steve play by the fire...he ain't in no fancy mansion or studio...and the real magic is the ember in the fire that pops at about exactly the same time as the snare drum does in the original recording! And then at end of the tune, Steve looks at the camera with a slight twinkle in his eyes...faith & the belief in things unseen...
In a daily struggle to “find” hope, I feel the soul of the arrangement intoxicating. My gratitude to you for your introspective rendition of a Windwood classic. Cheers
As veteran of the 'Woodstock Era' i was raised listening to Eric Clapton, Alvin Lee, Page, Hendrix etc etc, but Justin's playing and 'feel' for the music is other worldly, gives me the chills, absolutely wonderful
Oh, I sure hope Steve Winwood hears you play this tune that has got me home several times over the year's. Bless your sweet Soul Justin. Made me cry with this one. Great song for this 19th anniversary of 9/11. Thanks again J.J.. Peace, love, health and harmony be with you Brother. ✌❤🎸🎶🙏 🇨🇦😎🐈
Practice makes his kind of perfect lol. Natural talent doesn't mean you just wake up one day and start playing with such greatness 🤔. Keep up with it and one day you will be just as great.
Don't think I've commented on this video before, but I've been listening to it frequently since it came out. I'm 41, my wife died just after childbirth 7.5 years ago... And I've been wasted and can't find my way home ever since.
Furch guitars are not cheap, and they're made in Czechoslovakia. I'd never heard of them until a year or so ago when a friend who is a guitar aficionado and works in a guitar shop told me about them. He'd just managed to get one at an in-house price he could afford.
This song just makes me melt every time I listen. Finally left my comment. Fingers too melty before. :) Thank you for bringing such beautiful music to my world.
I agree but talent is just the beginning, persistence is the key. Justin here has put in the time and effort. To him the guitar is breath, it's life, not a hobby like it is for many of us. It is his very purpose.
Since I was 15 I tried to go home. I was mad at GOD because her wouldn't let me come home. I just couldn't understand why. This song eased the pain, as if I knew someone else understood. I didn't want to be here. I knew home and wanted to come back. But I could find my way. No matter what I tried and I tried many times. He just wouldn't let me. Then my mother found a way to help understand that there was a way. That someone has already come to show us the way. We don't have to struggle or suffer. He has taken on the burden for us. It took me years to find him because I was so lost. I didn't have to be wasted anymore. He has come. He is the light and the way. I finally understand and I'm on my way home, one day. I really really miss it. God bless you mom, I miss you too.
A serendipitous moment just like finding a 20spot in an old pair of blue Jean's you havent worn in a while. Only better🎵🎸Thank you Justin. I can sleep now🌹🌿
God how I wish I could just sit down and do this I know I know its practice but my personality will not allow me to do so and i have tried god how i have tried but you know what sometimes its best to leave it to those that can do it and this fella can do it in abundance the feel and sound he gets are beyond belief !!! Take the time to look at his other stuff you will not be disappointed that i guarantee thanks for the up load !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Love Ya Brother… Definitely an All Time Favorite of mine here Justin Thank You, and God Bless Old Brother John, What a Great One He was. Godspeed Brother I’m a finger pikk’r too, personally You’re my absolute favorite guitarist. Like I’m one with your music and the Brother playing it… Very Beautiful here my Friend
i say a lot,that there is so much great music being made today,but this 60's stuff gets you right in the dna,yes it was the music of my youth,but it never died,peeps like this guy keep it alive,and so glad they do
Beautifully rendered. As for the song....well.....as a younger man I sang along to this, and empathized with it immensely, as I traveled and explored all across this wide world. But in all that searching, and in all that time, I have come to this conclusion. Home is within you. It sits in the perspective of your heart. Do not seek home. Be home. Life in all its manifold expressions is a journey, and to traverse the path before you will take an eternity of Time. So don't be fearful, worried or concerned because you are not alone in your travels. Your home is right there with you. All you need do is to see this and understand... John~ American Net'Zen

This "should" be the actual way this glorious song "should" have been presented simply because of the sincerity of its meaning & feeling of sorrow?
Also lost spouse few years ago.
The tone on that guitar. The way you have a quiet conversation together. I feel like I just overheard something private poetry.
Well said...
Absolutely gorgeous.
May not cure all the hate in the world, but brought me some peace for almost 5 minutes.
I hate the hate

This man’s playing is therapeutic. Thank you Justin for sharing your talents.
I can’t tell whether I think this sounds haunting, mysterious, beautiful, or badass, but it for sure sounds amazing
All of the above.
@@5oclockshadowbanned154 Amen to that!. 🍻
Agreed but want to add it also sound wise, sorrowful, at peace with oneself yet determined to do the right thing.

Yes it does.
Man, that takes me back, way back to the Seventies; different vibe back then. Wish we could get it back.
If you find a way back take me with you I miss it too.
Seconded
Those people from the 70s are now running (ruining?) the government. We need a purge.
@@rmcg1965 Politics and music can never be compared to each other however politics did inspire a lot of great music ❤
@Jomama,
Then played throughout the seventies, immediately thereafter.
It's a seventies song.
I always wondered why this guy never sings and I just realized,........... he does.
Yep. ❤️
OMG.. that is the added WHY his style touches my soul. This, his feeling!
Yes he sings through the strings. God dayam
Always thought the same thing. He plays, I hear singing...
apparently there's more than one way to vocalize
I dig Justin's playing - story-telling with six-strings. While everyone else is playing a hundred-miles-an-hour, missing everything that blurs past, Justin's Jeep is in 4-wheel low taking in the views...
not to detract from your comment, but Justin is playing a LOT faster that you might think. His comfort with his instrument is deceiving.
I've been feeling so lonely lately, this song really soothed my soul. And this guy is awesome
Hang in There! Ups and Downs are the Peaks and Valley or our Life's Journey! Glad your along with us for the Ride!
I feel ya!
You are not alone. Hard times to be sure. It will pass..... like a kidney stone. But it will pass.
It always soothes me to play and sing this song...

Bravo. Blind faith was one of my favorite groups that defined the term Super Group. Thank you.
Ironically, it was that term that paved the way to its undoing. Clapton convinced Winwood to leave The Spencer Davis Group and start something new together as he was fed up of Cream being termed a supergroup.

Hope You are doing Well
Get better soon!
Hope ya feel better xx
@@SunnyDaysooXxO thanks to all, very uplifting 🙏
@Mikes Glove trying Sir each day
Can't get enough of this, this beautiful low-pitched guitar ringing these peaceful notes...
Ok, it's been four months and I'm still playing this almost every day. I think it's become an addiction. Every time I need to chill I play it again. Thank you Justin.
It”s always such a pleasure to watch and hear you play.
Furch's are such a beautiful breed, especially when played so patiently.
Well I wish my Furch will sound like this one day though my hands ..
I think Justin Johnson should be Inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. And placed with the best players.
Yes! Agreed
You are just amazing. I’m sitting in the hospital recovering from surgery on my broken back and what a perfect song and played with such tone such emotion such talent brought a smile to my face. It’s been a long time since I’ve been able to smile. So thank you for being my first smile.
Don't lose faith brother. I got crushed under a low-boy trailer, 5 years this Halloween. My whole left chest is titanium & I've broken one plate already. Just keep tryin!
Katie Kane hey thanks for kind words. Your right I have to just keep tryin. My surgery went great I had three more vertebrae stretched and secured. And a bunch of other stuff done. Take care of yourself be well and thanks again.
I just want to tell every single one of you in this world that seems so full of hate...i read your kind loving words from all of you and my faith in humanity is restored....just when I think we are doomed to not learn from our mistakes, continue with the destruction of earth and the beauty it has given us....I read the genuine poetic words of all of you..and it gives me hope not all is lost...thank you..
Drop C# tuning is just amazing to hear, When someone (Justin Johnson) Finger picks a tune, The great ones make it look so easy
This is truly one of the most beautiful things I've heard in a long, long time, thank-you for this soul-soothing execution of a truly fine song
Beautiful
What's with the 231 thumbs down, don't these dullards understand that if it sounded exactly like Stevie's version there would be no reason to listen to it. Sometimes the stupidity takes over the inner ear and makes people oblivious to the fact that this is a complete finger picking arrangement by Justin. Maybe they should open an encyclopedia and look up the definition of "Arrangement". Justin, don't get a big head but you are awesome and were born to play guitar and as I'm sure you well know, just keep making it sound beautiful as always.
I've been playing for 40 years and still have a very long way to go to satisfy myself, although It does make me feel good when I get asked to play something and in a few minutes everybody with me is singing along. Maybe the thumbs down people can post some videos, no I think not, it's easier to be miserable and hateful.
Ignore them... they will go away ;)
People have issues not recognizing the difference between the symbols and also there are bots around.
Some just dislike this type of music or just can't understand the beauty of this particular arrangement... Their loss..
Jumpercable wireless true words but you just can't please all the pool all the time.
well said
As an old guy trying to learn guitar this is both inspirational and depressing! So So good!
I'm turning 70 and I start dobro lessons this month!
@@hugowiberg1843 I've been playing for 50 years, but never learned slide. So now I'm getting ready to embark on a little journey to the Delta...
Fantastic rendition of that classic tune JJ & I am certain that SW would approve! I love the YT video of Winwood doing this song using his Martin guitar, totally incredible! 👍🎸😉
The one by the outdoor fireplace. That is truly incredible. It gave me chills. The conviction in his voice is haunting.
@@5oclockshadowbanned154 Yep, that's the one! I have watched that video to many times to count.......👍👍🎸🎸
@@sapelesteve link please tyvm
@@5oclockshadowbanned154 yes that is Magical 🔥
@@5oclockshadowbanned154 Yes...my best friend & I (we're both from Irish descent & have lost a son) can't help but sob when we watch Steve play by the fire...he ain't in no fancy mansion or studio...and the real magic is the ember in the fire that pops at about exactly the same time as the snare drum does in the original recording! And then at end of the tune, Steve looks at the camera with a slight twinkle in his eyes...faith & the belief in things unseen...
In a daily struggle to “find” hope, I feel the soul of the arrangement intoxicating. My gratitude to you for your introspective rendition of a Windwood classic.
Cheers
As veteran of the 'Woodstock Era' i was raised listening to Eric Clapton, Alvin Lee, Page, Hendrix etc etc, but Justin's playing and 'feel' for the music is other worldly, gives me the chills, absolutely wonderful
There is nothing like the sound of new strings.... What a fantastic version of this song. Just beautiful Justin!
Oh, I sure hope Steve Winwood hears you play this tune that has got me home several times over the year's.
Bless your sweet Soul Justin.
Made me cry with this one.
Great song for this 19th anniversary of 9/11.
Thanks again J.J..
Peace, love, health and harmony be with you Brother.

He truly makes the guitar sing. His finger style of play replaces an entire band. Amazing.
Cool, one of my all time favorite tunes. Reminiscing back to my younger days with this one.
Amazing wish I had this guy's talent
Just keep practicing
Practice makes his kind of perfect lol. Natural talent doesn't mean you just wake up one day and start playing with such greatness 🤔. Keep up with it and one day you will be just as great.
Josh - my bet is that you have a talent HE wishes he had.
Don't think I've commented on this video before, but I've been listening to it frequently since it came out.
I'm 41, my wife died just after childbirth 7.5 years ago...
And I've been wasted and can't find my way home ever since.
You do a mighty fine job with the blues, Justin. Bravo. Your playing has brought plenty of peace into my world. God Bless you!!!
Great sound, great song, great artist...this is the "America" which is in the heart of almost all the world.
Furch guitars sound like angels singing.
any idea where they are distributed? cheers.
@@peterking1270 alamo music
Perfect. And Furch is one of the most underrated guitar brands.
Furch guitars are not cheap, and they're made in Czechoslovakia. I'd never heard of them until a year or so ago when a friend who is a guitar aficionado and works in a guitar shop told me about them. He'd just managed to get one at an in-house price he could afford.
Awesome version of a great song and on one of the most under-rated guitars. Thx for sharing this jewel
This song just makes me melt every time I listen. Finally left my comment. Fingers too melty before. :) Thank you for bringing such beautiful music to my world.
Damn, all I can say is damn. I'm astonished at the talent in this dude 🤘
I agree but talent is just the beginning, persistence is the key. Justin here has put in the time and effort. To him the guitar is breath, it's life, not a hobby like it is for many of us. It is his very purpose.
my god.. so calming and played so freaking good! 😍
This is my favorite song that you have posted. I listen to it over and over. Wonderful arrangement. Love it.
One of my most favorite songs just got that much better! You elevate everything you touch!
That was AWSOME, takes some of us back in time.
Just love 💕 this song!
Thank you Justin… one of my NEW favorite versions now.
Since I was 15 I tried to go home. I was mad at GOD because her wouldn't let me come home. I just couldn't understand why.
This song eased the pain, as if I knew someone else understood.
I didn't want to be here. I knew home and wanted to come back. But I could find my way. No matter what I tried and I tried many times. He just wouldn't let me.
Then my mother found a way to help understand that there was a way. That someone has already come to show us the way. We don't have to struggle or suffer. He has taken on the burden for us.
It took me years to find him because I was so lost.
I didn't have to be wasted anymore.
He has come. He is the light and the way. I finally understand and I'm on my way home, one day. I really really miss it. God bless you mom, I miss you too.
A serendipitous moment just like finding a 20spot in an old pair of blue Jean's you havent worn in a while. Only better🎵🎸Thank you Justin. I can sleep now🌹🌿
Justin Johnson is the best guitarist. Ever
God how I wish I could just sit down and do this I know I know its practice but my personality will not allow me to do so and i have tried god how i have tried but you know what
sometimes its best to leave it to those that can do it and this fella can do it in abundance the feel and sound he gets are beyond belief !!! Take the time to look at his other stuff
you will not be disappointed that i guarantee thanks for the up load !!!!!!!!!!!!!
JJ is probably the best player of blues rock in America. Proud to hear him.
This performance is a gentle gateway into the soul of this
great song..
So soothing, I play this over and over! Thank you.
Wow 😳 JJ another incredible jam session 🎸🎸🎸🎸🙏 🥃 🥃
This is a favorite song. Absolutely wonderful rendition.
this music is where God hid my soul when i was a kid. he kept it safe while people used me.
And apparently God and the music kept you strong. Be proud and shine on.
Pure truth !
Know this, you weren't, and aren't, alone in this...
Love and Peace to you and yours...
Cannot believe I hadn’t heard of him before but this artist is amazing
Thats finger picking, not fingerstyle, beautifully done though!
Ditto. This is incredible.
Indeed. Mesmerizing!!
Love Ya Brother… Definitely an All Time Favorite of mine here Justin Thank You, and God Bless Old Brother John, What a Great One He was. Godspeed Brother I’m a finger pikk’r too, personally You’re my absolute favorite guitarist. Like I’m one with your music and the Brother playing it… Very Beautiful here my Friend
This brings peace to my soul 😌
This song is perfection! Thanks for such a brilliant cover! ❤️
i say a lot,that there is so much great music being made today,but this 60's stuff gets you right in the dna,yes it was the music of my youth,but it never died,peeps like this guy keep it alive,and so glad they do
Didnt think an improvement could be made on the original then i heard this.. Thank u justin for all your beautiful music! 👍
Somebody holds the key... and it’s Justin Johnson!!
👍🙏👑🎼
I have listened to this a bazillion times and it just brings me to tears. Boy...you sure play with a ton of grace in those fingers.
One of my all time favorite songs, that was pure perfection JJ, didn't hear a single off cord 💜JJ💜
Basically how I’m feeling right about now.
Inspirational dude, thank you.
Beautifully rendered.
As for the song....well.....as a younger man I sang along to this, and empathized with it immensely, as I traveled and explored all across this wide world. But in all that searching, and in all that time, I have come to this conclusion.
Home is within you. It sits in the perspective of your heart.
Do not seek home. Be home. Life in all its manifold expressions is a journey, and to traverse the path before you will take an eternity of Time.
So don't be fearful, worried or concerned because you are not alone in your travels. Your home is right there with you. All you need do is to see this and understand...
John~
