    Hey Gang!
    This tune is one of my faves - and it has resurfaced as a current hit for Felix Jaehn and Jasmine Thompson.
    My favorite version is the original classic Chaka Khan and Rufus recording from 1983!
    Special "props" to Jon Gomm for his excellent version as well.
    And thanks to David Arnold at Tonewood amps - he's an online student of mine at studywithadam.com and he started an arrangement for "Ain't Nobody", which led me to catching the bug to work on it!
    Enjoy!

    For me personally the best performance and the best fingerstyle arrangement that has ever been published on RUclips.
    Sorry Tommy…
    Hats off, I can only bow to you Adam and I'm glad to hear that I belong to the circle of one of the best students on your Platform SWA.
    Stay healthy and we will rock it in the future.
    Here too, I would like to thank you for the private lesson you addressed to me via SWA.

    I most humbly think you are what every guitar player truly aspires to be. Not in a way that they would aspire be you, but the way they would aspire to be themselves. Because when I listen and watch you play, I see someone who is able to evoke every emotion into their playing and it is simply wonderful. I believe that's what playing guitar is all about. Thank you.

    • @adamrafferty

    What a humble and detailed info you gave, 'far away...' I am far away from what you are playing, but it doesnt matter however my sound, my tempo, groove or whatever combination I could ever get, I always felt this 'far away'-issue and since a short time I can accept and welcome that feeling, cos' now I know it always was my inner motivation to go thos guitar-ways again and get further. 'Aint nobody' was my favorite 2023 in Maisach, so in preparation for the BB workshop next WE I was looking for that one again. Gorgeous ❤

    Unreal! You've become so relaxed with your playing. Between the podcast, gigging, and all your recent session work I was worried you weren't going to be dealing with RUclips crap anymore. This made my cold Canadian afternoon much more bearable.
    Much love dude! Well wishes to you and yours.

    Captured effortlessly
    That's the way it was
    Happened so naturally
    Did not know it was love
    The next thing I felt was you
    Holdin' me close
    What was I gonna do?
    I let myself go
    And now we're flyin' through the stars
    I hope this night will last forever
    I've been waitin' for you
    It's been so long
    I knew just what I would do
    When I heard your song
    You filled my heart with a kiss
    You gave me freedom
    You knew I could not resist
    I needed someone
    And now we're flyin' through the stars
    I hope this night will last forever
    Oh, oh, oh, oh
    Ain't nobody (Nobody)
    Loves me better (Loves me better)
    Makes me happy
    Makes me feel this way (Nobody)
    Ain't nobody (Ain't nobody)
    Loves me better, than you
    I wait for night time to come
    To bring you to me
    I can't believe I'm the one
    I was so lonely
    I feel like no one could feel
    I must be dreamin'
    I want this dream to be real
    I need this feelin'
    I make my wish upon a star
    And hope this night will last forever
    Oh, oh, oh, oh
    Ain't nobody (Ain't nobody)
    Loves me better
    Makes me happy
    Makes me feel this way (Nobody, baby)
    Ain't nobody (Nobody, baby)
    Loves me better (Nobody makes me feel)
    Ain't nobody
    Loves me better, than you
    At first you put your arms around me
    Then you put your charms around me
    I can't resist this sweet surrender
    Oh, my nights are warm and tender
    We stare into each other's eyes
    And what we see is no surprise
    Got a feelin' most would treasure
    And a love so deep we cannot measure
    Ain't nobody (Nobody)
    Loves me better
    Makes me happy
    Makes me feel this way
    Ain't nobody (Ain't nobody)
    Loves me better (Nobody)
    Ain't nobody
    Loves me better (Nobody, baby)
    Ain't nobody (Nobody, baby)
    Loves me better
    Makes me happy
    Makes me feel this way
    Ain't nobody
    Loves me better
    Ain't nobody
    Loves me better (Nobody)
    Ain't nobody (Ain't nobody)
    Loves me better (Ain't nobody)
    Makes me happy
    Makes me feel this way (Nobody, baby)
    Ain't nobody
    Loves me better (Ain't nobody)
    Ain't nobody
    Loves me better
    Ain't nobody (Nobody, baby)
    Loves me better (Ain't nobody, baby)
    Makes me happy (Ain't nobody, baby)
    Makes me feel this way (Ain't nobody)
    Ain't nobody
    Loves me better
    Ain't nobody
    Loves me better
    Ain't nobody
    Loves me better (Makes me feel this way)
    Makes me happy
    Makes me feel this way

    • @adamrafferty
      @adamrafferty  5 лет назад +1

      Mathieu! Good to hear from you. Tuning is only drop D, so it's not with the A string tuned to G like Higher Ground. I'm finding my way touch-wise with the touch and the fingers in this way....more to come. I suspect other studywithadam.com will want a lesson on this one! Talk soon!
