Beautiful. I love hearing something so incongruous and such a suprise. How many people would listen to this in isolation and connect this guy to the song..people are great
Thanks Luky. The song is a bit special isn't it. And Johnny is quite a character, being a Shakesperian actor as well as a musician. Thanks for your comment much appreciated 🙂🎸
This is just brilliant Stuart. It was the best programme on TV this Christmas & your rendition of the theme song is the best thing on UA-cam this Christmas too.
Magic! As was everything about that series, and this song. Reminds me of other similar work of art I love, the film Brassed Off, with Pete Postlethwaite, comprising a great script, great acting, great filming and great music. Always to be fondly remembered as something very special, forever etched on many hearts. A uniquely-English classic. I wish I had the musical talent to give that a go. Thank you, Stuart.
Thank you so much that's a great compliment. YT has given me the opportunity to share my music and it means a lot. Yes this is a great song from a brilliant series. If you are playing music, keep trying and you'll get there. It's rewarding at every level. Thanks for listening and commenting 🙂🎸
Had my high school headmaster (in America) recommend the TV show to me as I left for college. One of my all time favorites now. Stumbled across this cover today. So beautiful and soothing. Thank you.
Thank you Luke. I hope you caught the Christmas special, it was brilliant as usual. Thanks for the kind words, I'm glad you liked my version of this simple but lovely song which fits the show perfectly. Thanks for listening and commenting it means a lot 😊 🎸
Currently rewatching the series; I forgot how good it was :) You've done the original song proud, good for you. I had you playing about 6 times in the lounge earlier lol. I'll listen to some more of your music tomorrow.
Thanks M1. Yeah brilliant TV series wasn't it? And such a cool song. Glad you liked it. And I hope you get some enjoyment from the rest of my stuff, that's why I I do it, to share this thing called music. I'm still adding a song every couple of weeks or so, so plenty to go at. Love it 🙂🎸
@@stuartclifford8795 yer really great show, strangely one that seems to have been missed by many people I've spoke to. I'll comment on any other videos I watch :)
It's a beautiful song and you did it so well. Love the series and I always seem to have a tear in my eye when listening to the song, in a god way of course. Thanks
Thanks very much Neil. There's a Christmas special episode on Boxing Day. Definite watch for me 🙂. Thanks for listening and commenting it means a lot 😊 🎸
Thanks John. Yes I've been besotted with music and the guitar all my life, and when my son insisted I start a YT channel as a lockdown exercise I've had a great time, talking to people all over the world. Do I see the Canada flag? British Columbia? Thanks for listening and commenting 🙂 🎸
Hi Stuart, my wife and I finally got around to watching The Detectorists. We live in Ohio now. I'm Irish but we lived in Cornwall and Devon for a number of years before moving, and I find the show takes me right back to the peaceful English countryside. And this song and acoustic music in it is all perfect. I really enjoy your version of this! Really nice
Hi Andrew. I imagine Ohio is a beautiful place to live 🙂. We love Cornwall and Devon for holidays. We live in Nottinghamshire in the Midlands. I imagine Ohio is a little less congested than in the UK. We've been to Canada a couple of times and couldn't believe the open spaces and distances. I love the detectorists I thought the last Christmas special was brilliant. And yes the Johnny Flynn song is perfect. Thanks for listening and commenting it makes my day 😊 🎸
Thank you my friend. It's a long time since I was called a treasure. I think it was my Old mum 🤣. Good fun with the capos yes. I saw the guy in the Mumfords using 2 capos to get to dadgad tuning. He tuned the guitar to proper drop D, and put a capo over the bottom 4 strings 2 frets up. That gives the dadgad effect. Try that 🙂. Thanks so much for listening and commenting it makes my day 🙂 🎸
Thank you Ramen. Very kind words. I have done 3 tutorials on my channel, one for Brian Adams When you love someone, one for Jackson Browne Before the Deluge, and one for alternative tunings called " the road to dadgad and beyond". I hope they are OK for you and help you to enjoy music as I do. I love to share my passion 🙂 Thank you for listening and commenting it makes my day 🙂🎸
Thanks for your kind words Chris. It's a joy for me to share my music and receive comments such as yours. Thanks for listening and commenting it makes my day 🙂 🎸

That capo trick is genius and so simple it makes you think " how did i never think of this" but i didn't. So thanks. Great versiont too. Good work man.
Thank you Jonathan. Great song from a great series. 🙂 I saw the guy from Mumfords doing the two capo trick to get to dadgad. He tuned the guitar to a normal drop D, and then put the second capo on the bottom 4 strings only. That gives the dadgad effect 🙂 It's all good fun. Thanks for listening and commenting it makes my day 🙂🎸
Thanks for the video Stuart, I happily stumbled across your channel, Being a big fan of both the tv series and Johnny Flynn, open tunings, Nick Drake, JohnMartyn, Bert Jansch / John renbourne... I play this song in drop D usually and although i have used the 5-string capo technique, i've never seen the 2nd capo on only one string before..... Genius! thank you for sharing that glaring nugget of gold....
Thank you so much Chris, and you mention some of my heros 🙂 I'm glad you liked my version. I love dabbling in open tunings etc. Thank you for listening and commenting it means a lot to me 🙂🎸
That’s makes total sense. Move a full step up to get you open “D” then use the capo to move the rest of the strings full step up. I have never thought of that. Thank you.
Thanks Stuart, that was lovely... a great song and well played. That's also a nice technique with the capo (or two)... I mainly play electric blues guitar and slide with open tunings but a well played acoustic still hits the spot :) Thanks for sharing...

Thanks mate. My mum who is 73 insisted I watch this show with her. To be honest I thought it was going to be a load os s__t but I absolutely loved the series and really grew to love the theme song. I'm going to surprise her with a cover of it and you helped a great deal with that. Cheers mate.
Haha. Thank you Daniel. Good to know I can help. Btw I saw the guy from the Mumfords doing the same thing to get to dadgad. You tune the guitar to a normal drop D, then put the 2nd capo over the bottom 4 strings, 2 frets up from the 1st capo. That gives the dadgad effect Try it, it works 🙂. Thanks for listening and commenting it makes my day 😊 🎸
Awww... I like that. You're my new best mate! Drop D... up two instead of down two. My gift to you: look up 'partial capo'. I got one and it changed my guitar life! Love this song; not heard it before your version. Absolute diamond. Bless you :)
Thank you Rusty. The song comes from a brilliant UK TV series of the same name. (I wonder if you are outside the UK?). I must look up partial capo. I have seen gadgets that allow any one or all strings to be stopped, but never used one myself. Thanks for commenting it makes my day 🙂 🎸
Hi Stuart, this is beautiful. I lovevJohnny Flynns music hes very talented and unusual. Ive wanted to sing this at our folk club but didnt feel confident enough but you have inspired me to give it a go. I dont play guitar but now i feel i could do it. Thank you. I'll get on and practice it, wish me luck! 😊
Thank you Fiona. Well done - go for it! This song is a good place to start. Don't worry about the twiddly bits and capo stuff to start off with. That can come later 🙂. Good luck, I hope the folk club goes well. Thanks for listening and commenting it makes my day 😊 🎸

Hi Dirk. Yes, great song from a great TV series. I wonder if you get the TV show in Germany? By the way, I have relatives in Germany and have visited your lovely country many times. Thanks from England for your comments 🙂🎸
@@stuartclifford8795 hi Stewart, i came across the song accidentally lately and learned it was the theme of a series. Since i do some hobby archeology with a drone and detector i got curious and found out we had the series only once and that was years ago. Luckily i was able to buy the DVDs from the UK. Great story, Music and acting. I have a friend in Wales and visited her, also Cornwall. Very beautiful country. Would love to see more of the UK sometime. Thank you for your videos!
Thanks Kenneth. I am amazed that my little YT channel is reaching all around the world. Your comment from NZ is very humbling, thank you. I wonder if you see the TV series that this song is from. They showed a brilliant Christmas special on boxing day 🙂. Thanks again for listening and commenting it means a lot 😊 🎸
Thanks Charles. Yes a technique that crept up on me when I was a teenager. I do use finger style sometimes but it's not as natural to me. I guess it's because I grew up playing rock. 🙂 Thanks for listening and commenting 🙂🎸
So I finally watched the show. Man I loved it, we both did, me and Evička :) Beautiful show, it goes on my list of favourites along with Avatar the Last Airbender. Thank you for the song once again, beautiful cover :))
Thanks Dominik. Yes, such a simple song, a lovely love song, but it also reminds people of this brilliant series. I particularly liked the Christmas special episode this year. Again, very simple stories brilliantly portrayed. Thanks again for listening and for your comments, they mean a lot 🙂🎸
You're very welcome Kathleen. Glad you like it. I've also seen the guy in Mumfords do a similar trick to get to dadgad. He tunes the guitar to normal drop d, and then puts a capo over the bottom 4 strings 2 frets up. That gives dadgad. Such fun 🙂 Thanks for listening and commenting it makes my day 🙂 🎸

I love the ukulele, and I think it's very well suited to this song? Keep going and I think the uke is a very good base for an easy transition from 4 strings to 6 🙂

Lovely version Stuart, well played Sir. Learning this myself at the moment having only just found out about the TV series! Its a great show and also what a song. I like Johnny Flynn's cameo during season 1 at the open mic night playing this :)
Thank you very much Lee. Yes I agree. I thought this year's Christmas special was brilliant 🙂. Good luck with the learning. Don't forget the capos 🙂 (or not, it doesn't matter- just a bit of fun.) Enjoy and thank you for listening and commenting it makes my day 🙂 🎸
Really lovely Stuart. Been meaning to learn this. Great tip on the capo. It's a pain doing a drop D normally and then tuning back again. Particularly if it's on a live gig. Thanks for the tip!
Everything about this series is beautiful. The music! The cast (well the ladies). Just beautiful! I'm truly addicted to it! How come it's been on for several series and I've only just discovered it? Wasn't it mainstream BBC?
I think it was mainstream yes, but I don't think there were that many episodes. But I agree brilliant series, so down to earth, but very clever script writing . And of course this song fits perfectly. Thanks for listening and commenting it makes my day 🙂 🎸
Late to the party but just wanted to say what a fantastic cover, such a great tune and you seem like the sort of bloke I’d like to go for a pint with. All the best

Since i do some hobby archeology with a drone and detector i got curious and found out we had the series only once and that was years ago. Luckily i was able to buy the DVDs from the UK. Great story, Music and acting. I have a friend in Wales and visited her, also Cornwall. Very beautiful country. Would love to see more of the UK sometime. Thank you for your videos!
Indeed one of the best tv shows of all time. Danebury Metal Detecting Club forever!
Thanks tron (?), and I agree, although I don't do it myself. 🙂
Thanks for listening and commenting it means a lot 😊 🎸
Brilliant! Always loved that show's intro and love hearing the whole song. Thank you!
My pleasure Betsy, I agree. Thanks for listening and commenting it means a lot 😊 🎸
Beautiful cover. Thanks for posting this. I love the series ❤️
Brilliant capo work. And well played sir 👏🏻
Sweet! Thanks for this. From New Zealand.
Thanks Kenneth. I am amazed that my little YT channel is reaching all around the world. Your comment from NZ is very humbling, thank you.
I wonder if you see the TV series that this song is from. They showed a brilliant Christmas special on boxing day 🙂.
Thanks again for listening and commenting it means a lot 😊 🎸
Yes, we have seen the series here. Loved it.@@stuartclifford8795
You proved that a pick can create a version as beautiful as finger style. Great job!
Thanks Charles. Yes a technique that crept up on me when I was a teenager. I do use finger style sometimes but it's not as natural to me. I guess it's because I grew up playing rock. 🙂 Thanks for listening and commenting 🙂🎸
Lovely! Can’t wait to try myself when I can get the acoustic out and make some noise!
Thank you. You might like this tutorial. Hope it helps 🙂🎸

So I finally watched the show. Man I loved it, we both did, me and Evička :) Beautiful show, it goes on my list of favourites along with Avatar the Last Airbender. Thank you for the song once again, beautiful cover :))
Thanks Dominik. Yes, such a simple song, a lovely love song, but it also reminds people of this brilliant series. I particularly liked the Christmas special episode this year. Again, very simple stories brilliantly portrayed.
Thanks again for listening and for your comments, they mean a lot 🙂🎸
This is truly ingenious! Thanks for showing us Stuart!
Great song and a great cover 👌🏼
Hi Wayne. Thanks. Great song from a great series 🙂. Glad you liked it.
Thanks for listening and commenting it makes my day 😊 🎸
Fantastic beautiful song that .
Yes it sure is. Thanks 🙂🎸
Lovely version and thanks for the drop d tip. 🤗
You're very welcome Kathleen. Glad you like it. I've also seen the guy in Mumfords do a similar trick to get to dadgad. He tunes the guitar to normal drop d, and then puts a capo over the bottom 4 strings 2 frets up. That gives dadgad.
Such fun 🙂
Thanks for listening and commenting it makes my day 🙂 🎸
@@stuartclifford8795 thanks. I will try it. 🤗
Beautiful 💙
Thanks jk. Great song isn't it? It was the signature tune to a great and funny TV series here in the UK.

Absolutely cracking version Stuart. You have an easy, laid back style which you expertly weaved into this fine song. Bravo!

Thank you, and I agree 🙂. I watched the Christmas special on boxing day. Absolutely brilliant.

Well done...this is a great song from a great programme...i love it . A great series.
Thank you Nathon. Yes a great series and a great song from Johnny Flynn who is a super talented guy. I seem to remember he is also an actor, including Shakesperian plays.
Thanks for listening and commenting it means a lot 🙂 🎸
Super tutorial on how to play this cracking little tune mate - was battling in standard tuning but this double capo thing is genious!
🙂 Well done. Glad you liked it 🙂. Thanks for listening 🙂 🎸
Thank you Stuart, I really enjoyed this. Trouble is, I’m trying to learn to play this gorgeous song on a ukulele 🤨🌷
I love the ukulele, and I think it's very well suited to this song? Keep going and I think the uke is a very good base for an easy transition from 4 strings to 6 🙂
@@stuartclifford8795 Oh no, 🤣🤣, I could play a few chords on a guitar when I was a student, but that was 60 years ago. Now I have a uke and it’s a race between it and the arthritis, (not to mention dementia)😀🌷
Loved this so much. Thanks for sharing.
Pleasure Daniel. Glad you like it. Thanks for listening and commenting it makes my day
You are fantastic!
Thanks. Glad you like it 🙂
This was so beautiful, keep playing! Music is a talent that must be treasured!!❤️
Thanks Stef for your kind words. It's fantastic for me that my channel, which my son insisted I started as a lockdown exercise has become so rewarding. It's great to share the music I love.
Thanks for listening and commenting it makes my day 🙂 🎸
in a world full of fake, i love a surprise like this, so pure and honest.
Oh thanks Skinny. Comments like yours are very rewarding.
I'm glad you liked it and thanks for listening and commenting it makes my day 🙂 🎸
Beautiful
Excellent stuff!
Thanks Container 🙂. Glad you like it. 🙂🎸
Top of the Covers so far Stuart, lovely voice, da iawn!
Thanks David. I confess I had to look up da iawn 🙂. I've been to beautiful Wales a number of times. Must try and learn a bit of the language 🙂.
Classic song isn't it, and of course a brilliant TV series.
Thanks for listening and commenting, it means a lot 🙂🎸
@@stuartclifford8795 Im glad it means a lot, Im English living in Wales for 30 years and only know a few words so be cool :)
Gorgeous Cover! 😊💯🎵🎵🎵👌🥰

😃
Thank you. It gives me so much pleasure to share, especially when I get nice feedback like yours 🙂🎸
Well played Thank you.
lovely video and playing! Have a good year :)
Thank you Harv. I'm glad you like this lovely song from a brilliant series.
Thanks for listening and commenting it means a lot 😊 🎸
Lovely version Stuart, well played Sir. Learning this myself at the moment having only just found out about the TV series! Its a great show and also what a song. I like Johnny Flynn's cameo during season 1 at the open mic night playing this :)
Thank you very much Lee. Yes I agree. I thought this year's Christmas special was brilliant 🙂. Good luck with the learning. Don't forget the capos 🙂 (or not, it doesn't matter- just a bit of fun.)
Enjoy and thank you for listening and commenting it makes my day 🙂 🎸
Really lovely Stuart. Been meaning to learn this. Great tip on the capo. It's a pain doing a drop D normally and then tuning back again. Particularly if it's on a live gig. Thanks for the tip!
Thanks K T. I just uploaded a tutorial (Requested by one of my subscribers) hope it helps 😊 🎸.
Thanks for listening and commenting it makes my day 🙂 🎸
I'll check it out, thanks
Everything about this series is beautiful. The music! The cast (well the ladies).
Just beautiful!
I'm truly addicted to it!
How come it's been on for several series and I've only just discovered it?
Wasn't it mainstream BBC?
I think it was mainstream yes, but I don't think there were that many episodes. But I agree brilliant series, so down to earth, but very clever script writing . And of course this song fits perfectly.
Thanks for listening and commenting it makes my day 🙂 🎸
Late to the party but just wanted to say what a fantastic cover, such a great tune and you seem like the sort of bloke I’d like to go for a pint with. All the best
Well thanks Doctor 😊. Yes great song from a great series 🙂.
Thanks for your kind words, and I look forward to that pint 😀 🍺 🎸
