Thank you so much💛
Thank you
Thank you buddy :)
me a fingerstyle guitarist: Ha you fools. I don't use picks. So I have nothing to lo- what the.... where is my capo?
@wingsandstrings wdym?
i have both problems fuck
wingsandstrings go buy another brain
Bass rocks harder than guitars!!
Shit where’s my guitar
Guitarists: “oh no I lost my picks I’m screwed what am I gonna do?!!”
Me who lost my guitar: well shit
Can relate.
Lmfao
Lmfao, how? 😂
How
Use your fingers. Also i have your guitar
Almost 200K subscribers... this is CRAZY!!! Thanks everyone, you are amazing :)
Paul, you're amazing. your content really helps us.
love from india ❤
Paul Davids No no no, YOU'RE AMAZING!!!
Paul Davids you dsrv much more than 200k subs because you'r so talented and when you play guitare we can see that u worked à lot and that u love this amazing instrument 👌👌👍
Paul Davids Lekker bezig!
Its because you are a great player and are authentic. You have helped my guitar playing immensely. Thanks!
Everytime I watch your videos, I think guitar playing is easy, then I grab mine...
After 30 minutes I put it down and I cry.
Exactly! Somehow I Always loose my self confidence after watching a Paul Davids vid. Esp when the word easy shows up in the title. I play guitar for quite some time but have serious problems with these 'beginners' videos...
@@geertzwager1309 The guy is really good at isolating his thumb from the rest of his fingers, so he players the bass in most of the songs, but if you wanna play the same songs, ignore his thumb. Well, not altogether, just in redundant places.
@@geertzwager1309 You hv to remember the well known guitar players who make videos like Paul Davids are doing it for a living and for a reason. They are among the best! Try to think of it as motivation of what u can aspire to one day be and let these videos encourage you to want to go play your guitar :)
yup..i hear ya
I couldn't agree more 😢
You're so smooth and skilled at fingerpicking it's almost like you're playing in cursive. Good work dude! I liked this a lot.
Playing in cursive...I like that
@@jasonslagle6217 When you write in cursive you don't even hardly remove pen from paper while you're writing and I got that vibe here.
I would feel like a pussy if I played with a pick
Best comment.

I've played Hallelujah on guitar for years--just a simple version I picked up by ear--but seeing a couple of the things he did here clued me in to how to spice it up a little like Buckley does. Thanks man.
I used to be a legendary guitar player in my youth, I could play Wonderwall on repeat. One day my favourite pick went missing, guitar was never the same again for me.
Years later, and thoroughly over my troubles, I'm walking down the city streets, I look up and hear a crack and a thud. Breathless, and bleeding on the pavement, I get a glimpse of my killer.
My old pick, with a rifle zeroed in on me.
This is my last post.
Damn
fucccckkkkkk that escalated
'Your lie in april'
Just watch dis anime and youll know
Superstition is all mental and can hurt
f
I've been playing guitar for 6 years and left it when I started moving city and my teacher died.
Eventually you video made me want to start playing again and made me feel like I can still achieve beautiful things and remember his memory.
Thanks to you.
Wow, Hallelujah sounded amazing! The telecaster tone sounds fantastic, i loved it!!
i love this guy - so talented and inspiring; he really motivates me to perfect any given song no matter how long it takes. And what a nice guy, right? This is the amazing side of youtube - content that increases your knowledge of the instrument and your dedication to honing your skill. Thank you, Paul!
You're the reason I started to play guitar again. I have learned so much these last 6 months. Thank you Paul :)
Amazing... And playing just keeps getting more and more fun! Keep on going :)
valtteri niemelä do you only learn songs? i dont know what to do but learning songs xd
valtteri niemelä how do u practice? especially when it comes to chords
meet Connor McGuitar
Okay, James Norwegium.
Hahahahaha underrated comment
I was just about to comment how he looks like him
Aowkwkawk
The way you explain everything makes everything sound so simple
All great songs ..this vid motivates my to take up regular practice again! Thanks
he is the Bob Ross of guitar.....
LMAO
Ink Tim
Which makes him great, there's nobody better than Bob Ross at pallet knife landscape portraits!!!
He needs a perm to be Ross.
Michael Lucelli is bob ross of guitar.
dude you are right holy shit
His little intro at the beginning was like asmr lmao
Patrick Moore look it in google
Patrick Moore Anime sexy moaning raid
intro at the beginning? hmm
don't knock it till you've tried it?
KloniaX hahahahahaha
Hallelujah was literally the one that had inspired me to get my Taylor down from the attic and start playing again... two young kids. Been a harsh few years but music literally feeds my soul and I can feel myself vanishing without it
These videos are incredibly helpful and fun to watch, thank you so much!
Thank you! you seem like a really genuine person, i love your style :D
Excellent choices for beginners, I remember playing Dust in the wind, Fast car and Road trippin' and absolutely loving their feel. Also, my recommendation is to try playing Tears in heaven and Bard's song... they felt really difficult when I started, but improved my playing immensly and felt really satisfying to conquer! Great video, keep up the good work!
i swear to god whenever i actually need my capo i can never find it, smh
i fucking know right ;-;
Put it on your HEADSTOCK THE THINGS WITH TUNNERS
I have to keep three around for the same reason.
John Glenn put it on your headstock or in your guitar case
Have it on your head
Thank you for giving me back my passion for guitarplaying!
Was hoping Big Love - Fleetwood Mac would be on here, but these were all great none-the-less. Keep up the great work! And thanks for all the videos!
I just started to learn guitar and I must say:
This channel is the best, that happened to me in that case.
I send all my loving to you, Paul, for having this calm charming way of introducing me into all the basics and secrets of this instrument!
just love the way you talk, like you are out of this world, somewhere peaceful and relaxing
great selection of tunes, beautifully played, particularly loved Never Goin Back
great video it's inspired me to get back into finger style playing like I was when I started playing guitar, thanks a ton
Never going back again...WOW! Just wow!
Highly inspirational to begin learning. Thank you very much
Love your top picks 🔥
I haven't lost any pick in my whole life, because I play only fingerstyle :D
Cejot z Sa Nandreas same
you can lose your finger tho
Dhcf Flyinh BOOOOOOM
Lh9901 Wow that's deep
Cejot z Sa Nandreas i was about to type bullshit but then i read the rest of the comment
More Than Words by Extreme is also such a beautiful fingerstyle song. It was the first one I've learnt! Still love so much to play It
Thank you for this video, ive been looking for new songs to learn
Paul thank you so much for your uploads! You are amazing guitar player and tutor. God bless you.
Hands down the best guitar channel in UA-cam. Greetings!
Leandro Cappella fabio lima still better
Leandro Cappella
Music is Win is easily the best
rick graham
sungha jung
Leandro Cappella do not forget rob scallon
that guitar sounds so incredible
Absolutely amazing. Loving the tones of the guitars. My goal for the end of the year is learning all of them.
Thx for all the videos man!
MAAAAAN! This Collings guitar plays a main role in my dreams now, sounds incredible.
Hahahaha I thought I was the only one
John Mayer never fails, good as always
Heel erg bedankt voor deze inspirerende video's, meneer! Ze dagen iemand echt uit om een beetje harder te proberen en je houdt duidelijk van wat je doet!
I like the way you do and say everything in your channel, this is almost ideal.
Paul: “From easy-ish to hard”
Me: okay, awesome.
Paul: #1 *plays *
Me: I’m in danger
Awesome video Paul, the way you play really amazes me! Lately im really into recording guitar, especially acoustics. I really like the sound you get with your acoustic playing. I wonder if there is any change you will make a tutorial about it some day? (about mixing acoustics etc.) Really enjoy your videos, keep it up!
Nice work. I love following your tutorials
Woow I could watch this over and over again.
7:58
"We have Lerergo by Passenger"
Me: I never heard a song called Lerergo by Passenger.
*The song starts playing*
Me: Oh!
At first I thought he was trying to say Intacto
I was the same!
its let her go by passenger
Lerergo
Lericho
That Fleetwood Mac song at 3:35 is so beautiful!
Love the tone and guitar. Thx for posting, i really enjoyed the video.
Such a great video! I was looking for some inspiration to play in my spare time, and all these songs are perfect to learn.
Not only are your guitar skills very good, you also have very good English.
You also have a great speaking voice
Can do Edward Norton vocal impression
Paul, amazing guitar work, Never Going Back and The 59th Street Bridge song were amazing, if you do another top 10 acoustic songs, any chance of putting Time In a Bottle in it by Jim Croce, such an amazing piece of guitar work.
Keep it up
Rik
Pls make more of these! Fingerstyle really amazes me.
Amazing work, I owe you so much, you're an excelent teacher. Keep on Paul.
Flawless playing! Makes me want to chop my fingers off 😂
Alright, I feel like people aren't asking the *really* important questions.
How do you trim your beard?
Otto Tutzauer he watches alpha m videos
Mona Liftza Oh God, no.
the guitar strkngs vibrate them hair into the right shape
Get a beard Trimmer
Mona Liftza no! Just no!
Great choice of songs. Thanks Paul
Master class. Thanks Paul
I love how I see fire is first😍 world's biggest Ed Sheeran fan!! I played this in a GCSE exam❤❤
And what about "babe i'm gonna leave you" from Led Zepplin???
Barlock or going to california
Jimmy Page or That's the way? or Bron-Yr-Aur or The battle of Evermore
Dust In the Wind
Such clean playing. You make it look so easy.
Hey , you nailed it! Thanks a lot!
All good with eng subtitles in 0:15? ^^
Lmao😂😂
I saw that too
Whoever did the subs... lmao
what the actual hell
Have you ever heard passenger's "and I love her"? It's my favorite fingerstyle song.
That one is amazing! I always use it as my fingerstyle warmup
Song 10. Is a song I will never forget how to play. I first heard Fast Car in the basement of my house with my father when I was just 12 years old. I’ve been playing for a little over 4 years now but I wouldn’t learn it because the lyrics would actually make me cry lol. I’m 16 and that is still one of my favorite songs to play!
That’s a great selection Paul, thanks.
Never going back again is one difficult song to master.
Any tab for it?
@@scottpull12 ua-cam.com/video/cl4sDGpR83Q/v-deo.html here's the lesson and you can also find tabs on his website.
I'm surprised you didn't say Landslide by Fleetwood Mac, that definitely needs to be in part 2
Lindsey Buckingham is one of the best fingerpicking guitarists alive. Part 2 could easily be all Fleetwood Mac songs.
go insane by lindsey is my favourite
The sound of your Martin D-42 is fantastic !!!!
You're really awesome, sir. Big fan. I let the ads play (even the ones in the middle) and I truly hope you are getting paid for my heartbeats. Keep going regardless, we're out here!
Amazing video! Did you complete each song in one take, or did you have to try any of them more than once?
Would you ever consider tutorialling the John Mayer slap/flick from stop this train? Know you've talked about it before. Anyway, thanks for the ideas! Can't wait to learn some of these
Merritt Hicks Yes, I will be doing such a tutorial. Don't know when, but I will do it!
Thanks!!
Paul Davids neon! Neon!
Merritt Hicks I just started learning this song yesterday, and I can confirm: it's hard
He gives a brief explanation of the technique in his "Last Christmas" tutorial
Great playing. Love the guitar!
I think my guitar picks sprout little legs when I'm not watching. It's amazing really. they just vanish!
Dust in the wind... omg, its my first fingerstyle song ive learn... so many hours, but sound so perfect when every notes are well sync 😍
Hey Paul! I LOVE this version of Halleluah. Will the tabs be available if I join your patreon?
Great work Paul! You've really inspired me to get more into playing guitar again.
I have a question about Patreon. I've never used it before so I was wondering, if I sign up for the monthly access but change my mind in a few months, can I cancel it whenever?
Anyway, thanks for the great content and inspiration! Keep up the good work!
Total90 yes. you can pull out when you please
iluvcornflakes cool! Thanks for the response, much appreciated 😁
Glad I discovered this channel, very inspiring!
Goosbumps. Thanks.
I just started, I'm going to have blisters on my fingers lol
1:15 i need tabs of this amazing fingerstyle ohly shiiiiiiaaat
Macro Pollos i also
I know I'm late but, ua-cam.com/video/Paea2UJi8E0/v-deo.html is a good tutorial by let's play guitar
That telecaster is just incredible... Color is insane! love it!
0 pics I lost, and I love fingerstyle😍 love the way how you started the video, great collection
I'll be practicing everyday after school. I am determined to master every song on here before school ends.
updates?
Gil Mann in the hospital had to get fingers amputated
@@gilmann1536 he's probably dead
Legend has it he still practicing blackbird
''pop songs'',
anyway Paul, can you (or did you) make a guitar exercise video for you fretting hand
and by that i mean switching chords fast as fuck
oh and btw your recording equipment is high quality, sounds really a u t h e n t i c
Dani these are pop songs as in they are popular. Until more recently pop just meant popular and wasn't a genre like it is now. So when most of these were written they would have probably been considered pop.
Dani A technique I always use is to shape the lower notes first, then the higher notes. From the bottom to the top.
You do it till it’s easy
Paul man you are the complete evidence of why the guitar is the best instrument of all time. I love the fact that you play all types of songs, you don't have the slightest bit of hipster 'I only play certain songs' about you, you play any song you want and for that you have my upmost respect.
Favourite guitar players ever -
- Jack White
- John Frusciante
- Paul D.
Love you man
Haven't played for while. Now, in the mid- 30s, I've decided to practice more and improve my skills. I truly enjoy your videos, they're inspiring. Thanks.
falling away with you by muse has a fun finger style guitar😊
Dust in the wind.. Is the best!!
Very well done!! Earned a sub my man!! keep it up!
Wow! It's wonderful
I really like Ed Sheeran and i knew I see fire would be on this list.
can u do a lift of drop D guitar rifts? love your videos by the way
+Michael McWatters #4 of this list is in Drop-D 😎
oh cheers thanks
So glad youtube recommendations led me to your channel. :) Great work and thanks for this list! :D
I'm a relative beginner (like 2 months) and just "finished" learning blackbird. One if my faves so I'll try these fingerstyles out too!
