I’ve watch and wrote and drew this many many many times and YOU are the first and ONLY person on u tube that has actually explained it !!!!!!😁🎸🤗🎸😁🎸THANK YOU YOUUUUUUU 😁
Man, you way of explaining the circle of fifths was just brilliant for me. Like you ive seen the circle of fifths explained before and never really got it. But now the light bulb came on. Thanks man.🎸🍻
I dont know how but for some reason you break things down so that I immediately understand...it's funny how things just click on like a light bulb when I watch your videos...best teacher on UA-cam as far as I'm concerned....thank you very much for what you do to help others learn.
@@LearningGuitarSecrets I agree, I was wondering how this worked. I would imagine the next question would be if I can use more than that one section and say skip from a 'C" to 'E'. etc... Thanks great lesson.
Well done Den .... I've seen many, many lessons, by many teachers on UA-cam, but you have a brilliant way of explaining minor points in a unique and respectful way. You describe things that many teachers "assume" we already know, and give time for the explanation of every minor detail involved. I've so much respect for you and your teachings .... doing great mister!!!
THIS is the reason Den is one of my Guitar Worthy Sites! He once again finds patterns, shapes, and similarities in music, the guitar, and theory, then highlights them to get you moving in your guitar journey to those AHA moments!
I've played for years but never understood (never really tried to be honest) the inner workings of it. The past year or so I've been trying to get into a little more of music theory and ideas behind things like the circle of 5ths and this is an explanation that really cleared things up for me. Thanks man.
You just got a new subscriber. Like others have said. Your " circle-of -5ths " tutorial finally started to make a little sense. Yet I only discovered you about an hour ago. TU now I have to get back to it. BTW I just picked up guitar abt 2yrs ago and soon will turn 70 Roger in WV
Ahhh Thank you very much! I have been aware of the Circle of 5ths however it's was a maze to me. I had the basics but you tied it all together in a way we can understand. I like how you didn't assume that we knew more than we do, and I like how you didn't jump around. And then you played what you just explained!! Thank you once again!!!
WOW, Is it that easy? I saw this Circle while browsing through Amazon but I thought it must be really hard to figure out how it works. (as a beginner). It reminds me of the Color Wheel I used for mixing paint. Nobody likes the theory part, but you can't get around it. Very clear, to the point and FUN explanation Den. It is a gift. Thank you for sharing it with us. 😊
Finally ! Finally i get it. Like i struggled to pass trig and algebra all through school, until a grade 12 summer school teacher explained it in a way I understood and I got an A-. And it became fun. Thank you !!!
Hi Den, I like the pattern also. Key of C for example... IV I V ii vi iii wing = dim 7th. In major keys...this pattern does not change! I found this interesting. Your explanations Den, have a way of reaching and making it feel uncomplicated = special.
I appreciate your explanation. One suggestion would be to replace your “criss cross” method by simply stressing the order of notes is alphabetical. So you can start on your root note and number each chord/note in the key. Saves the step of drawing the lines. 😅
Thanks Den. Explaining the circle of fifths using shapes and explaining how it ties together with the Nashville Numbering system, now the eyes are wide open. I have a chart of both and now when I look at them, I'm not going to be confused. I;ve understood the Nashville Numbering system, but the circle of fifths was confusing. PERFECT LESSON. You have a great way of explaining the music without going in depth with a lot of music theory jargon. Your method of teaching is pure, plain, simple and straight to the point. I hope you will do a video/lesson on the diminished note. I know it is not used that often, but having some knowledge of it would be appreciated. Love your video lessons and your books.
most people have a poor understanding of the circle. this video isn't the best explanation of it. also, people who complain about learning theory are like a football player saying 'coach, why i gotta do these calisthenics? it's not like i'm gonna do them during a game.'
I am somewhat new to music, yet I believe this gentleman’s explanation of the circle of fifths is the best I have heard because it includes the diminished chord that most explanations I have heard IGNORE. IMHO I am glad I am listening to him and not you.

Amazing. Thank you for making this video and explaining so well!
I'm so happy to hear you liked this video, Lynn!
Wow. Your videos are great! I may actually get good at guitar. Thanks!
Of course!!! Once you can understand how it works it's a lot easier. You still have to practice, but it feels better😃
Cool video .... excellent explanation of the CoF's!!!
Thank you, Phil! Appreciate the love!

Awesome, Roger!!! So happy to hear you're playing! 🎸🔥
However many videos I've watched in the past there was always some of it I didn't understand. But THIS makes total sense. Thank you so much.
I'm so happy it's finally clicking! Let's go!
It's an easy and good way to explain the circle, u can add on how to use this cicle shapes with impro in major and minor scales
Thank you so much, Federico!

So true!!! Love this story❤️ Thank you so much for sharing this!
Great explanation again, love your lessons, you should have crossed out the word chord in your book and written shapes underneath.😀
Love it! That's a great idea! I appreciate you watching and your wonderful comments, Jeff😊
Another brilliant video..cheers Dan
Thank you!!! I really appreciate you watching, Rob!
Your welcome Den
Awesome video, thank you
So happy you liked it, Giovanni! ❤️
Yessssss Finallyyyy! Thank you!
Wohooo! So happy it clicked!

You made my day! Thank you for putting a big smile on my face❤️ I'll keep in mind doing a lesson on the diminished "tail" 😉
@@LearningGuitarSecrets Good to know we put a smile on your face. Keep up the good work. Love the way you teach.
And all this time I thought I had to learn music theory in order to understand how to write a cord progression. P.s I just bought your book.
Fantastic!!! Let me know what you think of it once you read through it❤️
👌😉
