    My mother passed away last month due to pneumonia and your tutorial gave me one of the best memories of her. My sister had purchased a new guitar at the time and I was tuning it so it was playable. My mother had walked in and asked if I knew "that one song that goes 'hey now, hey now'". I had JUST learned how to play it because of your tutorial. I hit the first chord and her face brightened up so much as I played. I cannot thank you enough for that memory and I cannot hear that song without breaking down.

    I first heard this tune in 1987. Just drove out to Los Angeles from New Orleans by myself. Was riding around Hollywood Blvd one late morning in the passenger seat, this tune came on and I just disappeared into it. Pretty surreal moment. Have loved this tune ever since!

    Neil Finn is probably my favorite musician. I have seen solo, the brothers and the Crowdies multiple times. He is such an incredibly charming guy in addition to being an amazing songwriter. One reason I like your videos is the background info. You have such a genuine enthusiasm and appreciation for the music and the production.

    I'm from Australia, even though Neil Finn is from New Zealand, we Aussies adopted him, Crowded house had a lot more great songs, one that comes to mind is Four Seasons in one day, and there is a great Split Enz song called Message to my girl, just another great song from a talented song writer. Also not sure if you have heard the acoustic version of INXS Don't Change, but i think that would make a great lesson.

Viva Crowded House!

I just paused to tell you which one of your video tutorials was my favorite , but too many came to my thoughts.( Mississippi Queen was one ) Just keep "em coming , I would hate to have to go back to old school as I did in the late 70's and 80's with the turntable , and picking up the needle and placing it back and forth all day to figure out songs ...lol
