Oh my gosh… ❤ Beyond positive comment, Lauren. Thank you so much. I have loved Melissa forever and look forward to learning all her songs (attempting to understand true story and emotion). I’m light headed and need to remind myself I’m a beginner. Thank you Lauren.
Oh Wow! I'm a serious Melissa fan, and I used to play the Your Little Secret CD over & over back in the early 2000s. I really need to see her in concert. I am not skilled enough to play this yet, but I deeply thank you Lauren for showing us this tune 🙂!!
Loving your free lessons’ Lauren. I love all of Melissa’s songs. Separate subject, do you have any recommendations for a beginner who simply wants to get lost in a melodic song. Love to you and all those you love. 😊
@@LaurenBateman ohhh my, Eva Cassidy. I forgot about fields of Gold; that is a beautiful song. I’ll need to check out the Ventures. Thank you Lauren! I hope you have a wonderful life.
I find it easier to call the chords by their function in the song -- so it'd be G# rather than Ab. I was a theory geek growing up. But this is really good -- thanks!
Goodmorning from alabama Lauren. My teacher has me on bar chords . On Stray Cat Strut at the moment. Not unknown to me so not hard. So people dont freak out. Shes the best and wont lead you astray.
Hi Lauren, thx for what you do, question, when you are a beginner is it common for one to have bad days with rhythm?? Nothing is connecting between your brain and your fingers? Or have I reached my pinnacle? Lol
I have a question about the up strumming. Let's say your strumming a C chord down and then you strum it up is it still a C chord and if so could you please explain how. I would really appreciate it. I've been trying to learn guitar off and on for quite a few years now. Spent a lot of time on UA-cam trying to learn from others and I lose interest after a bit. I found myself hardly picking up my guitar to play and practice. I came across your channel one day a couple years ago. You started to get me back into learning. But I still haven't been playing it as much as I should of life reasons. But I still love learning as much as I can. I watch your videos just about everyday. You explain and show stuff so amazingly. Thank you for all your time and effort you put into them.
Thanks!
Welcome!

You’re so welcome. I love Melissa!!
A friend who gave me "My little secret" album has just passed away so thought I'd learn this for her. Thanks Lauren, you always have great tutorials
Great album. My favorite. Sorry to hear about your friend.
Spectacular performance and singing. Sounded just like Etheridge herself!! And the ninja turtles!!!
Thank you for watching!
I love to hear the passion in your voice when you play and sing a song you really love thank you for all you do for us
Aww thanks. This is such a great song.

You're welcome!
Love Melissa! Thanks so much!🙏🎸
Me too!
One of my favorites. Thanks for the lesson, Lauren. This song is way more complex than it seems on the surface.
You are welcome!
yes please. more melissa! 🙌🏽
Glad you like it!
Can't wait to work on this! Melissa's coming up here to Freeport Maine in August. Maybe she'll have me on as back-up guitar!😂
Oh nice! I saw her last year performing solo.

Love Melissa. Hmmm. I love Fields of Gold the Eva Cassidy version fingerpicked. But a great song could be The Ventures - Apache.

Yes, you will have good days, then bad days where you feel like you have made no progress. Keep going. You got this!
@@LaurenBateman thank you Lauren!

Change by Blind Melon would be a good beginner song to do a lesson on.
It's got a great, groovy thing going on.
Blind Melon is great
