Stevo Canuck Well I knew harmonics (natural harmonics atleast) already when starting fingerstyle but yeah, I got the idea of slapping the strings from him as he was the first person on TH-cam I saw doing fingerstyle. So after my first fingerstyle cover (one of Sungha's cover actually), I decided to make my very first arrangement ('Good Time' by Owl City) and since it had a beat, I just sat down and figured out how to do it on my own. :)
To all the doubters that don't see them playing like him anytime soon, it's the dedication, passion, and devotion that drives skill to endless levels. Talent doesn't go very far without practice, and that's what got Sungha to where he is now. There's a fine line between talent and skill, however. Although most of us aren't born with the talent of his calibre, you can still become skilled with practice and determination. YOU CAN do it!!!
Whenever I am sad, I am listening to this masterpiece of yours, Sungha Jung. Thank you for giving us inspiration through your music. All these years, I've been listening to your originals and cover that never failed me to amaze.
Obviously the playing and execution is brilliant. But he composed this as well which is unbelievable but he did it at age 16 or so which is more unbelievable!!
I so like this music 😍😍💘 but I wonder if it's a song? Is it? But I read that it's a composition. What really is it? lol hahaha I kept looking for its song (if it has)
You've got some real talent. Man.... that's one of the coolest song I have ever listen to especially from a child . I play the guitar and I like to compose too. I can tell by the way you hold your fingers on the guitar that you really been blessed big God to play at this instrument . I think you already know that 99% is work and 1% is talent. I belive that on the future you'll be one of the best guitarist in the world. FANTSTIC!!!!! Go one and don't you ever stop from playing the guitar and composting.
Mr. Jung I don't know if you read your comments on your videos. Just wanted to say that your music inspires me. I don't know what it is about it, but this song can always put a smile on my face no matter what mood I'm in. I'm a guitarist as well and I know I'll never be quite as good as you are but I'm trying my best to get close. I'm trying to find a video of you that I haven't seen yet but I'm having a hard time. When I'm alone I just find myself going to TH-cam and typing in Sungha Jung. Every time. Keeps life light-hearted I guess. Keep it up. You're one in a trillion.
I've been listening to this dude play his guitars for so long and it just feels like this one of those rare times when someone is a perfect mix of passion for something, dedication to a lifetime of practice, a natural ability for the combination of physical skill and creative genius as a pair, the exact optimal whatever factors in his environment to make him the most motivated to get better at something when he was already better than basically everyone else he knew on the earth.
It's been 3 years, I still remember when I first heard this song I just ended my high school last semester exam, and i was looking forward for all kind of adventures as I will move into city for my Uni life, and there's when i met my love, although we broke up (recently heh). But now i accidentally listened back to this song makes me reminded myself how passionate and excited was I towards my new life. It gave me the feeling of hope somehow
雨薇爾 3 years ago this song was hard to learn back then. Now im into metal music. Everything has changed, im improved a lot. this guy is really inspiring. This guy is the reason why i started play guitar.
How about we just sit and listen, so what if we'll never play like him. I'm so glad God gave us this young man with his magic. He is one of greatest gifts to music ❤️
Sungha. You amaze me every time i listen to you. Young Man do not ever forget to thank God for giving you the talent you have. I love the sound of a standard guitar. I am a fan of yours for life. That was beautiful.
i hope that one day when sungha scrolls his old videos he will be able to notice this comment from his little fans who get healed and inspired by this song. Felicity is the reason why I love Sungha so much.
Instead of feeling jealous (like many people who commented on this video) I feel inspired and peaceful. I don't feel any "I wish I could do that" or "I'll never be able to do that". I feel "I WILL do a song like that or better". People see a master do work and they feel worthless. I once felt worthless too. But I don't feel worthless now. I feel inspired. I feel great. Have a good day everyone. Bye now.
I know what you mean. Every day it feels like I'm slowly getting closer to one day being at his level. I've only been playing guitar for a bit over one and a half years, but I've had amazing teachers and I've progressed tremendously due to their help. Many of my friends and family members are surprised by the guitar level I've obtained in such a short time, but when I see him playing multiple songs at the same level as my best ones I can tell that I still have a long way to go. I'm beginning to get close to that creativeness in creating songs, and I've been messing around with fingerpicking while making these songs. The toughest part is coming up with new sounds and finding a way to connect little pieces together to create a beautiful whole that meets your expectations. It's a tough process, but it's definitely worth the struggle when you hear a song that you can call your own and be able to bring a smile to yourself and others.
I have been playing music for almost 19 years now and I do not know how someone can be so gifted. you better thank god along with your hard work for your gift. Your originals are fantastic but i would like to hear some lyrics espeacially to this one. when you inspired jason mraz is when i looked you up. you are gifted man. dont quit share your gift of music with everyone you can. i look foward to more from you
I watch this and I see someone who feels the music flowing through them and enjoys the feeling, always happy to pick up a new song, always striving to do better. Do you agree?
The sounds of that just smile. The phrasing. The melodies. Pure elegance. Everything about this is very well composed and yet again you continue to inspire my playing.
How can someone be so talented in playing guitar? how can someone play the guitar like that? The best guitar player I ever saw! You are just so amazing. Are you a guitar god? my heart was blown away. give it back please. 😆
35 seconds in Sungha Jung Oppa got a new subscriber and another song bought on iTunes! It was so fun to watch! I couldn't help but smile and dance along to this song! I love watching his hands and the way he handles the guitar :) He wrote this song??? whoa... He plays beautifully I can't wait to binge listen to all of him songs tonight. He is so talents I will probably buy all of his songs on Itunes ^_^
When you've been a fan for a long time (but obviously not for long enough lol) and discover your favourite guitarist wrote a piece with your name as the title. This song is freaking beautiful
어머니가 가신지도 어연 1년이 다되가네요... 정말 오랜만에 들으러 온 노래라서 그런지 노래를 들었을때마다 그때 추억이 난달까요..? 자랑하고 싶은 것도 많고 물어보고 싶은 것도 많은데 옆에 없다는걸 생각하며 이노래를 들으니 그때는 마냥 즐겁고 흥한 노래라고 생각했는데 지금 들으니 이렇게 슬플 수가 없네요... 추억 한개 더 주신 정성하님, 감사합니다...! 이제부터라도 열심히 살아야겠네요..
I learnt how to play this and as good as it sounds, nothing can beat the feeling of making that sound with your hands and your guitar. Beautiful every time, exquisite experience. 10/10 would recommend. Learn it. Do it. It's worth it.
This song never failed to make me feel better. It saved me more times than I can imagine ever since it was released. Still listening to it in 2020. \m/ I love you, SJ! ❤
0:00 God this is so pretty, maybe I can try writing a song like this- 0:35 (@_@) holy fuck never mind Really tho, you are such a fantastic guitar player. I am blown away by everything you play
+Grace Bej ikr xD but don't give up your hopes. i'm learning a lot from him and you can too! don';t let your dreams be dreams. it'll be worth it in the end.
+Grace Bej What do they say: We are a little kitten in this ... And I also think, "This kind I campeone and I also write something." But when I see him play at 00:35 ............... But there are great plays ....
This is my MOST favourite Sungha Jung's song of all time...ever........ Love.........listening and palying this song. Lots of love From #Meghalaya, #India
Guys, this song never gets old. :)
Hey Pete just curious.. did you learn harmonics and slap rhythm from Sungha? He's pretty talented haha
Stevo Canuck Well I knew harmonics (natural harmonics atleast) already when starting fingerstyle but yeah, I got the idea of slapping the strings from him as he was the first person on TH-cam I saw doing fingerstyle. So after my first fingerstyle cover (one of Sungha's cover actually), I decided to make my very first arrangement ('Good Time' by Owl City) and since it had a beat, I just sat down and figured out how to do it on my own. :)
Peter Gergely #Talent !
Peter Gergely Wow, I learnt the same way hahah :) You're a very good guitarist btw :)
HQDivinity Thank you!
it's been 6 years and this is still my favorite sj original.
Ok
Same!
Me too
Same.. haha
After almost 7 years I remembered this song and finally found it ! Happy to see Sungha Jung is still playing music
Every time I watch him play I can't decide if I should go practice or just set my guitar on fire and be done with it.
Guitar will not fight against you.
just enjoy, even he is learning new things
dude i fucking feel you.
yeah man, i'm done with guitar :(
its amazin but depressing
The algorithm brought me back after so many years. I still think this is his best song!
why isn't this guy an international SUPER STAR ???!!! whats wrong with the world???!!! now that's a TALENT
He has concerts all over the world.
+Saadh Zahid ooh good he must cause he's awsome
+Chanyeop Back good for him =) and I'm a sis hehe
Hey Haya Exactly, such rare talent.
Hey Haya yeah and a world record for the best guitar player in the world
Been listening to this nonstop for the past hour. I swear, I can't get enough.

Now how the fuck do you call that a child...
Yeah man. He's 18 years old. It's almost racist
Angel Law Well I mean if Cosmina was in their thirties or something, 18 still seems very much like a child.
+Cosmina Costin "don't ever stop composting" lol
I completely agree
5 years past, your music still makes me feel cozy

The joy shining through on his serene face.. am in tears.
This can't exist but it does.
Sungha, you are a gift to mankind. Please make music.
It's been years and this is still my favorite of Sungha's Originals. Gives out the happy vibes 😄

7 years now, keep coming back to this. Feels like someone you love telling you that it’s all going to be okay!
Nice to see how he's grown. Been watching him for about 6 years when he first started posting to TH-cam.
this song never gets old
Yep
Your comment is old
HIS SMILE. HE LOOKS LIKE HE'S LEGIT HAVING FUN PLAYING THIS AND IT MAKES ME SO HAPPY.
Dank this was 11 years ago and I watched him played the new version live in 2024. Time flies~~
3 years have gone by and it's still my favorite piece. Forever awesome, Sungha Jung!
His best song.
Totally agree. So much heart put into it.
Music is said to be a bridge between earth and heaven. You my friend, have built a highway!
Cannot stop listening to this!
How about we just sit and listen, so what if we'll never play like him. I'm so glad God gave us this young man with his magic. He is one of greatest gifts to music ❤️
This song has a special place in my heart

It's now November 2022,, and still listening to this. His ORIGINALS are even better than covers.
i hope that one day when sungha scrolls his old videos he will be able to notice this comment from his little fans who get healed and inspired by this song. Felicity is the reason why I love Sungha so much.
Still here. I’ve been listening since this was released
Instead of feeling jealous (like many people who commented on this video) I feel inspired and peaceful. I don't feel any "I wish I could do that" or "I'll never be able to do that". I feel "I WILL do a song like that or better". People see a master do work and they feel worthless. I once felt worthless too. But I don't feel worthless now.
I feel inspired. I feel great.
Have a good day everyone.
Bye now.

he is like bounless as the sea and limitless as the sky
This is still my favorite one.....that melody suits a good oh beautiful lovely road trip when your looking at a unbelievable looking landscape.
The most beautiful guitar playing I have ever heard, dear Gods! ♥
It's even better when it says : "Sungha composed and played".
17 years old and composing these beautiful pieces!
He's making that guitar sing. He's telling a story with no words, yet I understand. Amazing.
I've been watching this for almost a year now. Pero hindi parin ako nagsasawa. ❣so beautiful and calming. 💜💜 I saluteeee you. 💜❤
Listening in 2024, this song does NOT gets old

Look up Sungha Jung - Again, it's basically a really good song that got forgotten about and no new comer would find it
2019 and I still find myself looking this up
어머니가 가신지도 어연 1년이 다되가네요... 정말 오랜만에 들으러 온 노래라서 그런지 노래를 들었을때마다 그때 추억이 난달까요..? 자랑하고 싶은 것도 많고 물어보고 싶은 것도 많은데 옆에 없다는걸 생각하며 이노래를 들으니 그때는 마냥 즐겁고 흥한 노래라고 생각했는데 지금 들으니 이렇게 슬플 수가 없네요... 추억 한개 더 주신 정성하님, 감사합니다...! 이제부터라도 열심히 살아야겠네요..
look at that right hand. it seems like his just playing with the strings, tapping like beatbox but it creates all those sounds. so goooood!!!
This song just lifts my spirit ☺️ Happy New Year! 2019 🎉
지난 8년간 들어왔지만 여전히 감탄..
연주인지 묘기인지....
hello 🎉
I can listen to you all day, relax & admire those skillful fingers playing. Thank you!

This song will always be my favourite Sungha Jung’s original :)
