i bet i am at least a thousand of these views. i listen to it all the time
One of my friends handed him a note at river road ice house and he played this song for my wife and I to dance to. I'll never forget that
Thank you leah, rebecca and monte!
That was 20 years ago..
Damn, this guy knows how to play the guitar...especially an acoustic one. It takes true skill to play an acoustic the way he did
I've been listening to this man since I was a child, most recently with my father in Austin Tx.
By far one of my favorite musicians ever.
@christianceja4085 I practiced this song so much the way he plays it from the video. I could only get the basics... idk how he can play it so clean with all the extra he added into it! I want th at 🎸 they make a Monte signature one but it's not like that one exactly o 5:13 r doesn't look 100 the same. The wear and tear makes it a one of a kind lol if they would have made it look aged I'd like it better. Still looking at about 3k for it.
I'm not great at playing the guitar just mediocre. It's like I'm self taught so even if I'm not good I just keep playing until I improve over time... Like not having a skill but there's no harm in trying and learning new stuff then you're like just learning stuff off other people's covers... How can you stretch your hand out over four frets? Get a baby Taylor? I wear large to extra large gloves... Idk 10 years is a good band. If you look em up the acoustic set for the song wasteland it's great and beautiful is another good one too. I always look for acoustic versions of everything!
I find myself returning to this quite often. It is such a powerful and gentle piece. Reminds me of so much of life. Regardless of how many accolades artists can be given, the rewards I look for is the feelings behind one's music. No one can fake integrity and emotion. Yet, if an artist does fake it, then they are simply not worth our time.
is Monte's guitar like that from his years of slobbering over how awesome and talented his hands and guitar are??:)
insane, i just found this jem today, what a machine of talent....
I heard an old guitar guy one time say it takes a guitar 20 years for a guitar to figure out it’s not a tree, I think this guys guitar has got it down
Best version I’ve ever heard!!
Yup
It is not fair that this man has this much talent. He can play like the devil and sing like an angel.
this is one of the best performances I've ever seen in my life
Really liked the way he works this tune. Messed around and started playing acoustic instead of my electric guitar because of him. Turned out to be the best thing I've ever done. The more acoustic I play, the better the electric playing gets without even practicing... Thanks Monte!
This guy is awesome, both guitar and vox!
Some folks just have it and some folks are just regular. This guy has it.
OMG I am hooked. I have never even heard of him. I am melting here.
I felt that too until I checked out Jimmy Wayne's version !
This guy kills it!👍👍👍
Gifted musician - who can play amazing guitar and sing equally well? Not many! A truly rare talent...thank you for posting.
another great artist out of Texas!!!
My violin teacher told me to check out this guy's stuff. I'm not disappointed.
I always enjoy listening to Monte on RUclips, especially this redition when I miss my daughter. He plays with such Soul and Passion, a pure talent!
Darryl Hall told Monte, he sings this song the way it was ment to be sung. Monte sang this song baby.
Love LOVE this kind of guitar pickin...repat till I sleep...Then invade my dreams
Unbelievable version. Hall and Oats would be proud! Great rendition. Monte got soul.
I'm blown away everytime I watch this video. Dayum
All I have to say is this is the best rendition of this song I have ever seen/heard! I used to play this for my daughter when she was a baby, no not even close to this, but I shot this to my daughter on FaceBook so she could see how it was supposed to sound, LOL! The passion Monte puts into his singing and playing is a cut above the rest and anyone who wants to play should watch and learn because this is how music is supposed to move you, felt from the soul!
Unbelievable can't wait September 21st 2013 at the Gordan Center in Owings Mills Maryland
wow...why have-not😘 I not see this version🕵️♂️ before ... lovely 👼
In Frikkin'credible!!!!!!
Best cover Ever!
that was fan-freaking-tastic!!!
Dude has SOUL !!
Daryl Hall invited him to his house for his show Daryl’s house and it was excellent l seen Montes show live before excellent!
This is the video on RUclips that made that invite happen.
More than just NICE ... Superb !!
I'm inlove with this beautiful song. So relaxing.
This is incredible. Amazing guitar playing, great singing! So much soul here... thank you for blessing my ears with such magic.
i haven't seen this in quite awhile, but every time i watch it, i'm just blown away by the sheer force of talent manifest in MM...humbling in every way
Bravo... Love this in 2024
Glad I found it, whole nother take on such a classic... Made it feel original, well done AWESOME STRINGING
a beautiful rendition of one of the most beautiful songs ever
Vocal and guitar playing straight from his Heart and Soul!!!! Really takes you to another place with this song. Salute this Man!!
Monte, after decades of my adoring this song since childhood, you've taken it to a whole new level of soulful beauty. THANK YOU for sharing your amazing talents with the world. You make this world such a lovelier place :)) and have given me new inspiration in singing this song.
Wow!!!! Monte is one of a kind!
Well monte is best guitar player...still is....but its because he was born with a guitar for a dick...and if i was born with a guitar for a dick id b that good too..that is as much as i played with it...lol
I literally listen to this everyday.
So smooth...
Fantastic. Excellent version of a sweet tune. Go Monte!
I just listened to this twice thoroughly. Monte's voice is really really unique in a world that folkies would rather be parrots than show this level of emotion. Wonderful voice, great song and an excellent balance of musicians for this musical journey.
A true talent, paying homage to a song written by a true talent, dedicated to his love and inspiration, thank you Sara
I have a Live CD my this guy. Truly underrated talent. Needs to be more appreciated. This guy is worth the listen.
I flew across the country to watch him in a small Texas venue. I don't underrate him. He was incredible.
Monty used to play a blue strat at my wife's apartment with his mom Maggie when he was 13. He was already pretty amazing then!
so you must get front row seats now
What I love is the emotional connection that he has to a song; his talent is evident and well done beyond most all of us.....thanks for sharing something so special
this song gives me chills
Sooooo incredibly underknown...everyone I ever expose to this is like “WTF”...Monte, you’re a crazy genius....why oh why does the entire world not yet know!!!?!?!!
this is the best version I have ever heard its sounds so natural that acoustic metal gutar ...slow folk country version.......
check out Jimmy Wayne's cover of it
Monte, man you got it.....singing + voice+ amazing band top notch and tasty stuff definitely some unique talent........!
He has truly mastered his instrument. His version of Little Wing is incredible.
H.L. Mencken said it many years ago, and hit the nail on the head- "Nobody ever went broke underestimating the taste of the American public" So sad indeed.
Very nice from start to end. Thank you.
Speechless, Probably the best 8 minutes of my life!
This song in very beautiful.
THANK YOU! I have loved this song since it hit the radio air waves....and NOW I have a whole new love for it. You're phenomenal on that guitar! This IS THE BEST Cover!
I enjoyed your appearance on Live from Darryls house. :)You ought be proud of yourself. You kicked ass Monte. :) Bet it was surreal jammin Sara (H) with Darryl....ha, life is good, eh?
He Nails this in the Most Romantic Way
Different level of music.... Kick ass version !!!!
such an awesome performance... I think I'll give up playing guitar tonight... or start praying for God to give me a little bit of your incredible talent... gorgeous...
Please, never take this down! 😊
@ritchieroads agreed. i must have played this song over a hundred times. never gets the least bit old.
Monte is the best acoustic guitar lead player I’ve ever heard
