Dear sir, I love your youtube lessons so much, you’re the BEST in explaining and covering songs! And your music taste is fantastic too. I want to know what I’m doing when I copy your lessons, I have no knowledge of chord names, scales etc. Could you please recommend me the best guitar coarse for beginners you know or do you have a course like that? That would be the best. Thank you for all your guitar lessons, THE BEST!
Once again this has to be said: THE BEST guitar lessons on youtube...
Thank you.
I have to 2nd that motion
@@boboplex I have to 3rd it

No doubt.
Just when you think Andy's covered all the acoustic greats, the man comes up with another one. This one falls into the not as difficult as I would have thought category. Best teacher on the net. Bar none.
Doesn't seem too difficult, but the hard part is making it actually sound good. It's all about the subtle parts, the rhythm, the timing.
I have been listening to this song for 20 years, and now to be able to learn it with an amazing lesson by Andy. If you like this song, then get the whole album called, The Living Sea. This song is from that album. It is a soundtrack to an IMAX movie and Sting did all the music. Amazing!
This is the best version of Fragile I have heard. And I am a huge fan of Sting
the boss is back
I just have to say that you are very accomplished guitarist and teacher, one of the best in my opinion and what a beautiful song to learn in a time where everything is so Fragile how appropriate Thank you for all you do in helping guitarist reach their pinnacle.
Thank you very much!
@@ShutupAndPlayGuitarTutorials I concur. You are amazing. Thanks for everything you do.
PEACE from Philadelphia
Beautiful and enchanting version. Have not heard this in a long time and this has moved me.
Absolutely brilliant. Not only the best lessons available on the internet but the clearest , cleanest and accurate guitar playing anyone will find anywhere. Thanks Andy.
Your tutorials are always so inspiring to me, I doubt I’ll ever be able to play that well but I won’t ever give up, Thank you….
Dude, Your attention to detail is fabulous! ..All the way down to your reverb on the mix!
I have said it before but,you are my kind of musician! You pick the Gems in music!
The best guitar tutorials on UA-cam! PERIOD!
The Song Remains The Same
A bit shocked this one wasn’t done by you a long time ago, superlative !!!
The clarity of that guitar is amazing.
Thank you very much for sharing this song and your talent with us.
I agree you have the best lessons on UA-cam. Thanks for what you do.
Brilliant, as always. (And shame on those giving a thumbs down - ridiculous)
Beautiful and a superb lesson that has enhanced my playing as always. Thank you. 🙏
Thank you for posting all of these great lessons. You are an inspiration to all of us!
I'm grateful for core relevant theory mixed into the song lesson. that's uncommon thanks
Was so lucky to get tickets to see him on Thursday in London. He is one in a lifetime talent.
man, this playing is sublime
Man, I've been with you from the beginning and you're still stunning me..Great stuff !
A perfect song..... with an amazing lesson.... thx
Top notch as per usual. Love this and I fully intend learning this one. Thanks 👍🏻
You are such a beautiful guitar player, Andy!!!!!

frigging mesmerizing.What an awesome teacher. many thanks.
Awesome tutorial!
Great tutorial thank you very much !
Great tutorial, Thank you
speechless !!! you are awesome my man...
Ive always wanted to learn this song, so thanks so much for breaking this down. I actually was the still photographer on this Music Video and he played this song right in front of me with only him, his GF now his wife and me. He was sitting on an apple box, barefoot. An experience i will never forget.
Thanks! Very, very good!!!
Another great lesson
Lot's and Lot's of love for your efforts and lessons.
May you get a trillions of subscribers..
Thank you very much, really nice lesson.
such a touch !!
Thank you sir...for everything....realy thank you...
Thank God I found you. I found several versions of it. Nothing taken away from them, as their are doing their teachings, BUT the difference between you and them with all due respect is that you show clearly where to put fingers and you go smoothly slow enough. The other guy who plays it and teaches it starts the beginning with the pinky and index fingers which for me as a beginner was so difficult to make enough room to settle / put my fingers on them. Thank you sir Now I will start to practicing all over again. ps sorry for my english. is not the best
wow what can i say; we saw Message in A Bottle at the Pantages last night and had to tune in for this one. just beautiful. you are amazing.
Great teacher!!! very very good!!
Nice... Thank you so much for this tutorial. This is a very beutiful song to play on the guitar. Cheers...
Great lesson! Really enjoy your tutorials. Could you do a lesson on "Thirteen" by Big Star with the different guitar parts?
Buetifully played
Exelente tutorial....muy bueno
Very nice! Thank you.
a very nice tutorial !
Wonderful video. THnx a lot. Very good explanined.
Encore une fois tu nous fais vivre un beau moment musical. Merci!
Amazing teaching!! I know how to spend my evening now =)
So great. Thx
Thank you
Thank you so much for your lessons may be awhile till I can play this though haha
Just Superb...
Hi, I love this piece by Sting, I'm a fan, I really like your tutorial, it's more interesting to play than some other tutorials in French because I'm French and I struggle with the explanations
Awesome u play gitar n give teach gitar slowly i from Indonesia...bravo
I am quite impressed with your caliber of playing, and you do these free tutorials. Your time is genuinely appreciated. This might be a bit out of character music wise, but would it be possible to show a tutorial on lead parts for Harper Valley PTA by Jeannie C. Riley? I"m not so worried about the sound, as I know its a dobro or something, as I may be able to get close with the katana amp and lead guitar. But I sincerely would appreciate it.
Amazing lesson once again , and we both have a 214ce, only your make it sing! 👍Fantastic 👏👏👏
Thanks Jason. I played this one on my 314. Cheers, Andy.
excellent choice
Thanks Charles
Magique leçon. Merci
Very fine and instructive, but difficult. I really must be patience, and not to hard on my self 🎶🏌️♂️🎶Make it slooooww👏🌹Greetings from Denmark 🇩🇰
Hi Andy. Heard you're not doing too great at the moment. Hope to have you back in the saddle soon. You are a fine teacher and such pleasant company of an evening when the family are away to bed and I can get my guitar out. Wishing you good health sir. Oh and I made a donation too yesterday. Everyone should if they are getting something from these tutorials. C'mon loyal subscribers! If Andy can't work just now he can't earn so I'm sure even the smallest of donations would be welcome
Just amazing guitar playing and teaching , I'll pass on this one though , way above my level, but thanks for all your videos.
sweet. Working on the first ten minutes.
Great, great, great lesson...
From my point of view, Sting developed Bring on the night progression by Andy Summer ....
A great and originsl devolopement, of course.
If blood will flow when flesh and steel are one
Drying in the color of the evening sun
Tomorrow's rain will wash the stains away
But something in our minds will always stay
Perhaps this final act was meant
To clinch a lifetime's argument
That nothing comes from violence and nothing ever could
For all those born beneath an angry star
Least we forget how fragile we are
On and on the rain will fall
Like tears from a star
Like tears from a star
On and on the rain will say
How fragile we are
How fragile we are
On and on the rain will fall
Like tears from a star
Like tears from a star
On and on the rain will say
How fragile we are
How fragile we are
If blood will flow when flesh and steel are one
Drying in the color of the evening sun
Tomorrow's rain will wash the stains away
But something in our minds will always stay
On and on the rain will fall
Like tears from a star
Like tears from a star
On and on the rain will say
How fragile we are
How fragile we are
On and on the rain will fall
Like tears from a star
Like tears from a star
On and on the rain will say
How fragile we are
How fragile we are
On and on the rain will fall
Like tears from a star
Like tears from a star
On and on the rain will say
How fragile we are
Ditto the last comment, best lessons around, great work, and great skill 👍
How can I say this? I guess stating the obvious. So the Blackout and the sharp definition of the hands and fretboard that are so clearly visible. Remarkably good teacher.
Not familiar with this particular sting tune but looks fun to play!
Now try adding the vocals ! Wow I’m finding it really tricky, Sting is certainly very talented
Could you please do a tutorial of owls best friend by Alan gogol?
Merci merci merci !! Super tuto ! Il me reste plus qu’à poser le chant mais ça c’est pas gagné ..
Man this lesson is AWESOME! All of yours are great, but this one is just so good... you have the right sound and feel. I've wanted to learn this for years. Thank you!
Can you please do
Do you feel like we do by peter frampton
would love to see some more tragically hip!
great lesson as always! please consider doing some Nick Drake
Hello Sir, thank you very much for your very instructional videos. You are doing a really great job!
I'd like to ask if the Taylor you play is a 214 CE DLX? In case I'm wrong which model is it exactly? Again thank you!
There's a link to my gear page in the description box below each video. I list everything I use there. Cheers
I couldn’t find it, what is the model number of that Taylor? Such a beautiful perfect sound
@@rennycurrin2740 Same was for me, but I didn't reply because I didn't want to sound disrespectful :) I think it is an earlier version of the Taylor 214 CE deluxe, but I'm not absolutely sure. Be aware that the cheaper Taylor models have a thinner neck. So you maybe want to consider this as well as the sound of the particular model you might want to buy. Cheers
very good lesson, but I notice that Sting plays a bit different in concert the solo, specially when it gets to the 12bar.
Anyone know where I could get a tab or good lesson for Shopping Bag People by Climax Blues Band?
Please do an acoustic version of Paranoid Android. No one has done a proper tutorial.
it's the cousin of "Bring On The Night", the 6ths an all...beautiful
can you please do a lesson teaching us the greatest Lennon song OUT THE BLUE
Can you do a lesson of Lady Writer by Dire Straits?
Mark Agnesi had played , at Normans Rare Guitars , " My Little Ballerina".....
Could you
would you?
🥺
plays demo on repeat 10 times :) ... :) .... :)
Can you do a lesson on walk like a man grand funk railroad? Please....
F****awesome
Yeahhhhh!!!!
🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸😎😎😎👍👍👍
Maybe it’s been asked before, but did you name your channel in homage to Frank Zappa’s “Shut up and play yer guitar”? Thanks for the wonderful tutorials over the years, friend.
Hey Andy I had a quick question, what size pick do you prefer
There's a link to my gear page in the description box below each video. I list everything I use there. Cheers
@@ShutupAndPlayGuitarTutorials thanks man I appreciate it.
I just believe Sting make this song rembering and beginning from Bring on the Night idea
