I'm 62. Been playing guitar for about 12 years now. I'm nobody's idea of a great player (but I'm not too bad!). My daughter is 28 and this was one of her favorite movies growing up. If I could learn to play this and spring it on her next time I see her she'd flip. And that would be pretty awesome. Thank you for putting this together!!
@@DougAlexanderInTexas and if you make a fault while you play at her wedding, just shout out at the end "I love you" to her but I am sure you will play it greatly
Wen I was a child. I used to hear my dad in the bedroom next to mine. Play the acoustic. Iit used to help me go to sleep. I have been playing ever since. Am 58 years old. I still play. Always love playing acoustic. Even after all this time. 🎸
This made me cry because this song reminds me of my childhood and I used to lay in bed listening to my dad play his guitar. He's only 66 now but he's in ill health and this just totally broke me. I've been learning to play for the past couple of years but I so badly wish I could turn back time and get my dad to teach me from being a kid. He's an excellent guitarist, I couldn't have asked for a better teacher but I wasn't interested back then.
@@melodyvalentine8779 thank u melody. For your lovely reply. Its nice to no there's someone out there. That had the same wonderful moments as me. With my late dad. He never rearly spoke much to me. But I like to think we had a connection thro r love of playing. Thank u for your heartfelt response 🎵💕
Everything Alan Menkin has ever composed is a beautiful song to play. I often wonder what kind of heart lives inside a person who can pour out so much passion into music. This is magnificent.
This is just what this crazy world needs right now! A reminder of how wonderful and beautiful music brings to our lives. Thanks so much for sharing this!
I am a simple strummer. Have been for over 45 years. I would love to be able to even come close to playing as you do, but I have to say that this is absolutely beautiful. One of my favorite songs of all time. Thank you for sharing your talent. God's blessings to you.
Its like beeing 6 years old again if I hear this song. Wonderful played! Thank you for this. For sure I'd buy this tabs as soon as they're getting available :)
Wow…I play and class myself as a musician,…but this was probably the most beautiful piece I have heard!!…not one string buzz or muted note, highs lows 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Happy Bday 🍷
I remember this from the Pocahontas preview on some VHS as a kid. Wow. It's been 20 years since i've heard this melody. Your fucking crazy for this one. Exceptional taste my friend.
Happy belated birthday. I play also, and I've always loved instrumental music, especially on guitar. I find it soothing and comforting to just and contemplate all that goes on around us without listening to words or distracting activities. Thanks for the post.
My dear friend ,that gift that you have chosen to share with all of us is just So So Beautiful ! Thanks for sharing my friend, thanks so much! You have learned how to share not just your music but your soul too! BECAUSE that’s where you are playing from ! Trust me, I know I play too love you bro ! 👍❤️😊. Keep up with all your great work it’s so inspirational!
The title of the song/work/piece here is what is what is being called "The Most Beautiful etc, etc), and as such is not the "Oh My God' moment, for all guitar pieces, or compositions. An open tuning piece like this exists in many performances, by many other Artists of the guitar. I do like this, but it is not the pinnacle, or highest place in Heaven or anywhere else, as the highest of the high. Give others a chance. There are many performances on you tube, that qualify for an admiration...The only criticism about this is directed towards the title, better known to millions as 'click bait'. It is a lovely piece.
Why do you have to specify you're Japanese though? That sounds a bit funny, nothing wrong with it but i could now imagine a comment section where every comment everyone states their nationality at the start of their sentence 😅.
I love the faith-guitars. Far understimated and underpriced instruments. Craftsmanship off the charts, great raw material and beautiful sound colors. Beautiful playing by the way
This was really beautiful. The song itself did not look too difficult, but it certainly is not easy to play something this clean. Great sound, clean notes, creat dynamics and nice feel. You should maybe look into proper classical guitar techniques. For example the wrist of your right hand is at an angle and I recently learned that you can actually injure yourself or develope carpal tunnel. This can be prevented by certain exercise or by using a footrest for the left leg and holding the guitar over the left leg. Furthermore you can add more flavor to the song by changing the position of your right hand. If the right hand is near the bridge it will have a more metalic, percusive, sound and if it is near the neck it will have a softer, mellow sound.
everyone asking for tabs: just look closely at how he plays it; try the melody first, then add the bass and the chords. like that you actually learn something
Would be nice to see a lesson on how to play this great song. Your guitar technique needs to be shared along with the chord movements up and down the fretboard.
I really enjoyed the song you played!!! It was beautiful. I'm a struggling guitar player. You gave me incentive to practice. By the way, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

@@DougAlexanderInTexas do it! I’m sure it would make her happy :)

As a 35 year old man, the original song still kicks ass... and this rendition is absolutely jaw dropping.
Everything Alan Menkin has ever composed is a beautiful song to play. I often wonder what kind of heart lives inside a person who can pour out so much passion into music.
This is magnificent.
i’m playing this in my orchestra class it sounds so good with a whole orchestra
This is just what this crazy world needs right now! A reminder of how wonderful and beautiful music brings to our lives. Thanks so much for sharing this!
This arrangement touched me to the heart. Thank you. You somehow made the guitar sound like it was undulating like the river. Perfect.
Absolutely beautiful piece of music and absolutely beautifully played. Bravo!!!
I am a simple strummer. Have been for over 45 years. I would love to be able to even come close to playing as you do, but I have to say that this is absolutely beautiful. One of my favorite songs of all time. Thank you for sharing your talent. God's blessings to you.
What he is playing is not that hard. You can do it with some practice. Learn basics of fingerstyle. Good luck.
A good melody is the heart of every song. This is a great melody. Well done.
pure elegance, so blissful and beautiful, bravo! Your guitar sounds so crisp and clean, a real pleasure to listen
Outstanding playing, Guus. This left me feeling so nostalgic. Truly beautiful.
This is so so beautiful playing . Calms the soul 🙏🎸👏🥰🥰🙏🥰🥰🥰🥰
Woww! U are so good!! I love it!!
Its like beeing 6 years old again if I hear this song. Wonderful played! Thank you for this. For sure I'd buy this tabs as soon as they're getting available :)
Thanks for supporting always, Dominic! Appreciate it :)
@@GuusMusic Hi, are your strings in Metal or Nylon ?
@@olympianlegacy no way you asked that
1:11 that slide is my favourite part of the cover
What incredible tone (and playing!)
beautiful melody fingers
I would swear you were playing a nylon string classical. Beautiful arrangement and playing. Well Done!
Wow…I play and class myself as a musician,…but this was probably the most beautiful piece I have heard!!…not one string buzz or muted note, highs lows 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Happy Bday 🍷
So beautiful Melody
Wow..that is a beautiful piece of music indeed !
WOW !!! YOU NAILED IT !!!
Pure sounds!
This is such an elegant arrangement! Absolutely loved it, great playing :)
This is the ONLY video that deserves music...THANK YOU,!
Wow!!!! This brought much desire to learn symphony and harmonic playing. I am so in love with this and I must learn to play!!! Thanks a lot
Wow I didn't know Ryan from The Office can play guitar so well. Not just an MBA after all, I see.
Congratulations, Guus!!! And thanx for your gift to the world with this beautifulperformance!!! 👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏👏
Hey! Thank you, Jasper!
I remember this from the Pocahontas preview on some VHS as a kid. Wow. It's been 20 years since i've heard this melody. Your fucking crazy for this one. Exceptional taste my friend.

First class performance....Beautiful mellow way to start my morning!
This song just became an entirely different level of nostalgia..
Beautiful piece. You played it wonderfully!!!
I enjoy that quality guitar sound and playing miced up good and close.

Couldn’t agree more. Very pretty arrangement of a very mediocre tune. Boring melody. Boring harmony. Elevator music.
That is beautiful.
That is absolutely the most breath taking wonderful sound i have ever herd!
heard..
not 🐂🐃🐂🐃🐂🐃🐂🐃.
😉
(Yes, I agree, very lovely guitar)
Beautiful playing
Very pretty, i like the artificial harmonics, nice touch, thx for sharing bro.
How can someone dislike this video?? It sounds so great man!!😃
people hate for the sake of it i guess, with you completely though, what a great vid!
Probably because people hate when youtubers speak in absolutes with clickbait titles. It's not THAT beautiful.
Because people have different tastes. Personally I thought it was nice, but slightly repetitive.
Just wow.
Thank you brother. May all your days be glad. 😁
Too Beautiful
Firstly, Happy Birthday Guus!!!
its no surprise that you were in the mood for this....a heavenly performance as always! 😊
I'm a Japanese.
Thank u for playing such a beautiful song. I was sooo impressed by ur sounds...
What is the song name please? 🥺
Why do you have to specify you're Japanese though? That sounds a bit funny, nothing wrong with it but i could now imagine a comment section where every comment everyone states their nationality at the start of their sentence 😅.

Really beautiful tune and playing. Thanks for sharing.
Happy birthday bro. Can you believe my bday was just a day before yours 😅
