How I wish you could have a guitar tutorial for this song posted in TH-cam. Your guitar skill is superb and many have desire to imitate. You are so good and worth to be remembered. thanks Dan
Don't worry man! I know it's probably pointless saying thess NOW but, for anyone who sees this in the future with enough time and patience you can imitate him just from the original video! Sure, it can be a very painful process but maannn is it so rewarding, and then you'll know how to play something not many people know because it's not as easy! And hey, at least it's not like back in the day when all you has was the recording. On record. Man, we have it so good now, I know how it feels though, I was scared at first to try it cause it seems so daunting but just do it, it's pretty hard, no doubt, but I think it'll be easier than you thought, and you'll feel like an absolute bad ass afterwards, and, in my case at least, if you learn em' this way they really stay in your mind better, but I don't know, results may vary on that one lol
i know its weird but you can really feel the song when its dedicated to someone, specially old friends like that. Its great song sir great voice made me cry
I don't know how I discovered your videos, but I am so thankful I did. You are truly an amazing talent, Larry. Thank you so much for putting them on. Fantastic!!!
Wow. I'm doing a demo class in Beijing, China on Friday and I'm singing Holly Jolly Christmas. I checked youtube for chords/version...40 mins later still haven't done my lesson plan and still listening to Larry L :)
Hi Larry, I listen to you often. I appreciate your youtube songs on guitar. I just listened to your video about your life story that you did long ago and I appreciate it. I had wondered about your background. Keep up your good work! You inspired me to get back to my guitar. Russ C
Hey Larry, I have been listening to all your video's the past two weeks. They are absolutely awesome. I've enjoyed them very much and have sent many of them on to my friends. I have a great passion for making music and find these video's very inspiring. Thanks and please keep them coming. If your ever in Cleveland Ohio area - You got a friend.
Larry~This has been and will always be one of my favorite songs~James Taylor's version is a very nice one, however it doesn't come close to yours~You put your heart so into this and it is heard and felt by everyone who comes here~And, there is something that I find SO powerful and touching about this-You are singing about what a best friend is, and that is what YOU are~That really gets to me~GOD bless you, my sweet friend~~ione marie
Yeess. In my search for this song (i play it myself) I stumbled on this juwel. Very well performed, good voice and...guitarplaying. Greetings from Holland.
Awesome! I love your cover of this song. I loved the James Taylor and Carole King versions. Then in 2005 the version by the English band McFly. Now I have a new favourite version, yours!! You're awesome Larry!
Larry.....It wouldn't matter if you consumed one glass or the whole damn bottle, this would be what it is...A beautiful song that defines what friendship is, sung with the richest warmest voice...The irony here is that you are singing a song that is exactly what you are, my priceless friend....ione marie
@auntoni51 - your name is Ione?! So was my maternal grandmother’s. Never met her as she died (of goiter) in 1930 or so. Anyway, it’s just such an unusual name… just thought I’d reach out to you. Regards - Jim
You just call out my name Love it if i was your friend and you dedicated this song to me No Words cause i would be crying Grateful Happy Tears our friends are so Blessed to have you
awesome song. I remembered . all my. friends. when I. was. in my. high school. I remembered all our. good. times. .. I missed. them. so. much . from Philippines
hello larry, you know I love that song, good interpretation, a greeting from Mexico, and I hope you upload more videos of these beautiful songs, goodbye and success
Larry, do not listen to the haters below. You understand what singing is about - to express your heart out to the full regardless of your condition on that day. Those haters probably cannot even get the same number of views and likes as you do, and for that they decide to discourage you. Screw them and keep rocking!
