Started playing over 20yrs ago but as soon as I watched your 4 fingers daily practice on the 5th fret (20 times each) and been doing it about 3 months now, I just can NOT believe that my speed went up by 10-15% and now my ring finger is outta this world with it's reach now!!! ❤You forever for what you taught me 🤘God bless you Lauren🙏🌹
This comment is not directly related to this video but I bought my guitar about 13 years ago and have given up twice on actually learning it because it was too hard for me. I thought it was something I couldn’t do. Then earlier this year I decided to pick it up again and I saw a video of yours I forgot which one it was where you said to learn the G, Em, C and D until I know them down pat. I did just that and it has opened up the possibility for me to play and sing so many songs. I never thought I’d be able to do this. Now I’m ready to learn pat other chords. Thank you, Lauren I have seen countless videos on UA-cam of soooo many guitar teachers but yours is the one that had a truly lasting effect on me. You’re the best, keep making videos. You’re helping people even if you don’t know it.
Another example of how awesome of a guitar teacher Lauren really is. All these easy follow along videos really work and everyone iv seen in the last 7 months that iv been playing guitar iv nailed. So happy. Keep it up Lauren. Your special
MY god! Your voice is intoxicating! Good that my old self needs to repeat this over and over to get it right! In other words, you make strumming fun! Hey, them sound like song lyrics!
Lauren, I started using your "easy version" chord positions and it saved my guitar playing. I'm a senior and my fingers took forever to form standard D chord. Your easy version saved the day! I almost considered going back to the piano, but no more. Thanks again.
I started playing in Febuary , found your you tube Site , and have´nt looked back since , an outstanding method , simple and simply fun , thanks lauren !! started learning Chords and Strumming patterns , I´m in a comfort zone , have to get out of it :-) picked this song out , and have it in two days , the lick i still have to learn . I´m a lefty playing a Rh Guitar , and loving it , my favorites are the fab Four !! I´m a brit so it has to be , Great lauren .
😃You make learning the guitar easy and fun. Thanks! Do you have a lesson on how to strum "Roll Out the Barrel" and the intro notes? It is one of the favorite standards.
Thanks, Lauren. I'm a bassist, but I'm totally a wreck when it comes to playing acoustic guitar because my strumming technique sucks. Using a pick also makes me feel disconnected with the guitar. I want to get better. What should I be doing before I burn in bad habits with the acoustic?
I really liked the Brown Eyed GIrl lesson so thank you! One minor technical issue... and this may be my fault, but you had said the "intro to the song" video would pop up and so I went to click on it, but by that time (as always happens) UA-cam carries on with other songs that its algorithm ranks higher. So I have to go in and find the video manually in order to watch it.... which is laborious. Sorry for being lazy! But there were a fix here that would be an improvement.
Hello Lauren when you get time can you do this song Great Southern Land by Icehouse my most favorite song cause I am an Aussie and also Sister Golden Hair by America and Long Cool Woman in a black dress by the Hollies I would love to learn these songs when you get time thank you so much love your lessons
Thank you, Rita for the recommendation. I get lots of song requests so I cannot guarantee that I will get to it, but I will definitely add it to my list.
Love this song. A standard for me, just played it yesterday. Played a lot of VM back in the day. Wild Nights of Thunder a favorite. My guitar teacher would play lead, a buddy on base, and me on rhythm. I remember the first time we played together. I was thrilled I could not only keep up, but nailed it. Wild Nights of Thunder pushed me forward.
Thanks Lauren. Absolutely love watching your videos and have learnt a lot from you. I’ve been playing for just under 3 months now and I can notice the improvement already! Much love from UK ❤

You can use your fingers! No problem at all.
