Singing or listening to someone sing this song, my eyes fill every time. I have lost my mom, dad, two brothers and one sister. I will be the last to go from my immediate family. I have 5 children and a wife. It is only fair that I go next. I believe in the saving grace of our Lord Jesus Christ and He will be waiting to bring me home to the Father. There I hope to see my entire family and my pets too. Amen
Kiss me mother kiss your darlin' Lay my head upon your breast Throw your loving arms around me I am weary let me rest Seems the light is swiftly fading Brighter scenes they do now show I am standing by the river Angels wait to take me home Kiss me mother kiss your darlin' See the pain upon my brow While I'll soon be with the angels Fate has doomed my future now Through the years you've always loved me And my life you've tried to save But now I shall slumber sweetly In a deep and lonely grave Kiss me mother kiss your darlin' Lay my head upon your breast Throw your loving arms around me I am weary let me rest I am weary let me rest
I watched all the other lap steel players on youtube, I came back to say, your tone, style, articulation, execution, and possibly most importantly, space: is king.
I stumbled across this channel yesterday, I had been thinking about picking up a new instrument to learn that I could buy on the cheaper side (I learned bari sax at school and cant afford to buy one) and I love the smooth transition and sounds of the flat steel. I ended up buying a $180 aud one on ebay :0
I was going to say that you're becoming too dependent on those palm levers but then you threw those slants in there so I guess you're ok. ;-) Nice work!
wonderful as always. I finally got my lap steel going. An early 50's Silvertone Artist. I installed Certano string benders, but they offered way too much resistance (following your advice I used 16-56's tuned EBEG#BE) and interfered with the hand position. So I took them off and now it's back to sorta original configuration. Can you suggest the best way forward, esp for minor chords? I'm reasonably proficient on guitar.
Hi Viktor have you considered a six string pedal steel ? You could use the same tuning etc, and the levers are both controlled by foot pedals which leaves your right hand free for picking. S www.redtapemusic.biz
Viktor, If you ever put the Certano back try to adjust the levers to the lowest setting you can work with and try some lube on the bridge and nut. I use Tune-It by Musicnomad. It does work more smoothly that way
@@johnlance3860 I think it has to do with scale length and ergonomics. On a 650 mm scale and 2-3 inches behind the bridge, rather than 1.5 like I had it, it would probably feel more elastic and not in the way.
Been enjoying your Duesenberg work. Any chance you might have some tabs for sale? I've been playing 8-string C6 for a few years but getting started on my fairytale now and following Troy Brenningmeyer's lessons. Be nice to move ahead to your lovely arrangements. I'll touch base through your email. Bill Knox

Finally, a chance for the left foot to shine . . . nailed it!
I think I would like this played at my funeral.
Me too!
me too
Listening to your beautiful music with my morning coffee just starts my day off better. Thank you!
That Lap Steel, with those pick-ups and the benders, just how you have them, is my dream Lap Steel. It literally sings. Maximum Respect ~ Loo
Nice! I never get tired of this video and have watched many times. Thank You so much!
Coming back to listen to the hundredth time
That sound, those bends... amazing. You've come a long way on that instrument in just a few years, Luke. Thank you so much for sharing.
Thank you!
Oh, that's just gorgeous. Thank you.
Thank you too!
Kiss me mother kiss your darlin'
Lay my head upon your breast
Throw your loving arms around me
I am weary let me rest
Seems the light is swiftly fading
Brighter scenes they do now show
I am standing by the river
Angels wait to take me home
Kiss me mother kiss your darlin'
See the pain upon my brow
While I'll soon be with the angels
Fate has doomed my future now
Through the years you've always loved me
And my life you've tried to save
But now I shall slumber sweetly
In a deep and lonely grave
Kiss me mother kiss your darlin'
Lay my head upon your breast
Throw your loving arms around me
I am weary let me rest
I am weary let me rest
Thanks for posting the words to the song
@@MrMultitool THANK YOU for saying so!
I watched all the other lap steel players on youtube, I came back to say, your tone, style, articulation, execution, and possibly most importantly, space: is king.
Those guitars have nice tone
That was beautiful. Thank you!
Luke, that is so moving. Thank you for sharing your beautiful music.
Oh, this reminds me of the O Brother Where Art Thou version, this is Magical.
Strong work, Luke! The Cox family (with Suzanne Cox) does a fantastic job with this one as well.
Nice playing sounds great keep posting these beautiful songs😎👍🏻
i’ve been looking forward to your videos. thanks for sharing. please do more as you’re able!
Excellent as usual! I'd love to see a jam session between you and Jerry Douglass. Two masters in the same room like that would be incredible!
Thank you, but I there’d be one master and one lucky pupil in that room if this was to ever happen.
@@lukecyrus As a musician, I understand that sentiment. I'd still love to see your take on Monkey let the Hogs Out!
Beautiful!!........Roger
I love your videos. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for posting that on my birthday. Lovely to hear and great to watch.
Beautiful as usual and smooth as silk. Thanks for posting.
Beautiful, you mastered the lap very well!

This is beautiful! What kinda effects are you using? Compression, delay and reverb with some kinda hold/freeze/sustain function?
Just a bit of reverb, thank you very much!
Thank you, Luke. Exceedingly beautiful. Would you please tell me/us the instrument tuning for this song?
Can i find your tunes on Spotify? Wold Love to add these tones to My chillout playlist.
Are there steel guitars in heaven? If not I may not want to go....
When/where/how to get streaming or cds...Please !
Your playing is superb sir👌🏻. What amps do you find work particularly well with lap steel?
Sounds like Lost Highway by Hank slowed down.
wonderful as always.
