    I’d love to save your tutorial for John Lennon's Imagine to my practice playlist, but it won’t let me because it’s “made for children”. Not sure why that matters, but I’d love it if you could change that so I can save it to practice with. I can save other videos of yours, just not Imagine. I’ve only recently discovered your channel and I’m enjoying it very much. Thank you!

      Hi, thanks for flagging that up. It turned out I hadn't checked yes or no for 'made for children' so it must have just assumed yes. It should be ok now. Thanks for your compliments, I'm glad you're enjoying the videos. Life has got in the way and I haven't posted a new one for so long! Let me know if you have any requests.
