とも先生！
When I watch other great guitarists play, I don't feel the same way as when I watch Tommy's play. There is something else about his playing. I love it.
Right true i agree
The truly great ones incorporate all the styles and tricks they learn over the years and make them their own. They are not trying to play like someone else. They have their own stamp and stand on the top of their own mountain.
Only a handful have ever reached this level of mastery out of the sea of talented pickers.
He is incredibly passionate and enthusiastic about the music he is playing. And he is able to transfer that excitement into playing. THAT is a very rare talent!
That's called feel
The joy on his face while he plays...
I'd be a pretty happy camper too, if my playing sounded anything like that! :)
Oh, and the joy on MY face while he plays...
After all those years... he still loves it.
Undoubtedly, he's the guy who knows every nook and corner of a guitar. Salute.
The most beautifully nuanced playing ever.
Could listen to him all the time. Wait - I do!!
Best guitarist in the world.
See Raphael Rabello.
+Steven Altern Why? I'm talking about technique, composition, repertoire etc. It isn't about taste.
+sister hoyo it's taste
Its personal preference big boy, chill
Tommy is certainly a master of technique, spontaneity, musical wit, taste, and power. His notes are classy. But not the best because there is no best. Just enjoy his music, and consider other possibilities too.
In my opinion, it is better to think of a "Council Of Genuises" rather than a single best. For example, in 1975 in terms of rock guitar, my council would include Brian May, Steve Howe, Alex Lifeson, Tom Scholz, and Tommy Shaw and James Young. I'm sure others could create other councils.
Tommy's playing is cleaner than soap, how he does it, I have no idea.
Sam Braverman Practice.
And lots of talent
Sam Braverman I think it's the other way around. A little bit of talent, and insane ammounts of Practice, talent alone won't make you this good.
***** I see no problem with Tommy. And I agree fully, tallent is sometimes crucial in some arts, but i know from experience, that people who don't hone their talents are nothing without it, THAT is what i'm pointing at. I spent insane ammount of hours on my Guitar Practice, over 10h daily, i have NO tallent and it takes THIS much to be at MOST average. Also, if you from sheer practice get to the point of Tommy without tallent, it's much more Fullfilinf than, if you had any tallent at all.
I think it takes a lot of talent to be able to practice for over 10 hours a day.
My favorite part of this masters playing is how he always shows the joy he gets from making this amazing music. Maybe the happiest guy working, no matter the gig. Thank God for putting this fellow on the Earth during my lifetime.
Goodbye Burt! This is one of the most beautiful renditions of his compositions...
that sound! this is the most clear guitar's sound that I ever heard
I've got the same model Tommy plays the clarity of the notes is like Hifi definition..the rest is talent :)
It's because of the maple back and sides of his guitar - it is know for clarity and bright tone.
Tommy is an absolute master musician. He OWNS that guitar. It is one thing to play an instrument and quite another to completely master it. As everyone can also see, he feels the music while he's playing and gets lost in it. Tommy has brought me many hours and hours of listening pleasure. It's quite rare to come across these types of master musicians. My father was one. He was a jazz accordionist and fairly obscure, but in his time was considered the best jazz accordionist in the world. It was my father who taught me to appreciate great musicians, like Tommy Emmanuel.
+brabanthallen Hoe heette jouw vader dan?
Mathi De Pauw Mijn step-vader. Hij heette Dick Bailey. Hij gespeeld in Washington DC voor veele jaaren. Ik ben een Amerikaanse man getrouwd met een Nederlandse vrouw.
and like many master musicians, he has played by ear from early childhood .. he'd listen to the records or the radio and work them out with his brother Phil .. he cant read music and who would want to when you play like he does ..
I agree. It is one thing to have a guitar on loan or hire-purchase but if you own it outright, then that is an entirely different level of being a guitarist.
1:18 He can't help but singing out a little bit! I love it!
sometimes I think it's actually part of the performance?
1:26 also
He does on a good number of his recordings too. hehe.
And at times does his signature laugh at the the end of tracks, especially those 'fun', up-tempo tracks :)
i knoww! he's so adorable!
love it
Somebody said here “ What this old Guitar may have seen in life “ !
She not only plays , but sings like no other can do it , at Tommy Emmanuel ‘s heart and touch . ❤️
Thank you for honoring Mr. Bacharach and David by bringing this beautiful version of the song to us......what artistry👏
Oh....not to forget The Carpenters🎸
One of the best songs ever written, he knows and he loves it, so he feels like it's making love with music
pause
He plays like other people breath - this can't be taught, it is who he is.
Today I just happened to come across this beautiful mesmerizing renditions of the Carpenters " Close to you" My eyes were glued half through until I fell into a peaceful easy feeling , then closing my eyes and sailed away. That was awesome. One of the best versions you're going to hear. Thank you for sharing. If you don't mind I'll do the same thing❤
Awesome. Don’t care who or how old you are, it’s really hard not to start singing with a Bacharach masterpiece!
This is such a great melody. Nobody does it like Burt and Tommy!
Beautiful sound! This song is special one for me. It reminds me of my first love when I was a middle school boy. Now I'm over 60 but it still sounds so good to me.
If you listen very carefully you can hear the best parts start at 0:01 and stop 3:02
😊😊
I love seeing the joy on Tommy's face every time he plays guitar.
Maybe he is covering up the pain. His fingers on those steel strings must be killing him.
I'm gonna finally be confident say. Tommy Emmanuel is the single greatest guitar player to ever touch a guitar. Any one video is not worthy of what he can do. And no genre can stump him. He truly has not only all the knowledge of Allan Holdsworth but the emotion of Clapton, the guts of Johnny Cash and the more talent than all of the 80s combined. And I'm sticking to that.
형님 건강하시고 오래오래 좋은연주 들려주세요
This guy is simply amazing - these songs become refreshed and amazing when he hits the strings.
I just had the amazing chance to have front row seats for one of his performances. I was transfixed the entire performance. He has such amazing control over his guitar and he even has a wonderful stage presence. Truly wonderful
Look at this mans face. THAT, ladies and gentlemen is what love looks like.
I love to see a guitarist enjoy playing his guitar, its like adding soul to the sound. So beautiful, so much respect grandpa
Tommy, you slay me. Every freakin' note. Every glorious slide. Every perfectly timed harmonic.
毎日聴きにきちゃう。こういう曲ギター１本で弾けるのすごくかっこいい。
One of the Masters of our time.
Maybe if we all pitch in a couple of months Tommy will live another few hundred years.
Haha.....lovely thought 👍
I'd gladly give a year for this legend to live longer
Id give 5 years
As Joe Satriani says, the best acoustic player in the world.
Scott Waszak Yep, and Steve Vai said the first time he saw Tommy perform he sat in stunned silence.
tcfunvids I believe Steve Vai once said, "There's no greatest guitarist, but nobody is better than Tommy Emmanuel".
I'm sure Vai has made several complimenting comments about Tommy.
What a great comment to make. Tommy is beyond amazing. Just goes to show what talent and a lot of bleedin hard work does.
The best guitarist full stop. One of a kind
If I ever could play like you
I would forget all the sundries,
All the minor sadness that's
still coloring our mundanities.
Oh, that winged guitar who could
fly around the manuscripts of
Bach to Joplin, through the
hearts of east and west
Salute, salute Mr. T. Emmanuel
One thing for sure.. Mr. Emmanuel never strays from the basic Original, but DOMINATELY makes every song his...
There is no comparing him with any other guitar player... Certified Master of the guitar...
(p.s. I envy you... )
Bacharach's music is very expressive and full of deep feeling. I love your arrangement and interpretation Tommy.
I listened to the beautiful performance
It’s my favorite music
It‘s so sweet 💜
1:18 when you only want to do is fingerstyle, but you feel your beautiful arrangement and started to sing. Amazing Tommy Emmanuel! 👏🙌
Always makes me proud to be a fellow Aussie guitarist when I see Tommy Emmanuel. I saw him at the Rocks in Sydney last century - front table in a 75 odd seat venue - before the U.S and the rest of the world discovered just what he has to offer. Great stuff Mr Emmanuel. Always a great treat to hear you play.
Another great performance by this wonderful musician! Thank You
Beautiful, I love the sound. The guitar isn't just played, it's orchestrated.
It's his BEST arrangement of them ALL!
One of the best fingerstyle players ever. What most people dont know he's self tought!!#
"On the day that you were born the angels got together and decided to create a dream come true"... Great guitar Maestro Tommy Emmanuel!!
日本人です
原曲もトミーさんのclose to youも、涼しい秋に聴きたくなります
なんとも言えない時間です
夕焼けが綺麗で、、さみしくて美しくてずっと浸っていたいです
sometimes I lose hope on humanity, and think that the world may be better off without them. But then, I see the amount of beauty humans can produce through sheer perseverance and dedication, and think to myself: that's something worth preserving! Thanks for not just playing beautifully and entertaining us, but thanks for dedicating a lifetime to bring out the very best in a human being. Thanks for the inspiration.
woah there mister alien there is a lot of things in this planet it only depends where are you looking at
That's one bad dude right there. Every time I listen to Tommy I'm conflicted as to whether I should practice more or just stop playing all together. It's pretty humbling when you are forced to admit that you'll never reach his level of proficiency, regardless of the amount of time you spend trying to reach it. I'm pretty sure he's an alien or something.
whatsthebigfndeal Listen friend, the only force that is pushing you to admit you won't reach his level of proficiency are the insecure thoughts that are taking hold of your mind. Tommy started somewhere, and he worked hard. Look at him shining now. He didn't acquire any of his skills by sheer luck or 'talent'. Only by a verocious hunger for improvement and fearlessness. That plus years and years of perseverance. There is nothing in this world that you can't achieve when you understand that the sky is the limit. Yes, you, too have the power in your hands to become one of the greatest. It's right there inside you. Unleash it. Unleash your beast!
+trtgre grfdgdfg Wow, that was quite a pep talk! Thanks man, it's nice to run across some positivity occasionally. Peace and happiness to you and yours.
Decades(literally) of serious study, practice(& NOT only for an hour or 2 per day like most of us), perseverance & an obsession to continually improve(because you truly love it) would probably do the trick. But just because we can doesn't mean that we will.
Tommy has said in interviews that he practices six hours a day. multiply that by how many DECADES he's been practicing.
make THAT sort of commitment and if you still think you don't play as well as Tommy, rest assured that no human ear would be able to detect the difference between you.
@@myrryxmas Yep, talent then an immense amount of practice. Because, talent won't put you this far in my opinion.
Thankyou for sharing it’s phenomenal how he plays that guitar so beautifully! ❤️
Things to strive for. LOVE watching this man play.
this fingerstyle guitar song is the best thing I've ever watched on youtube
One of THE best Carpenters songs played so well by an AMAZING guitarist named Tommy Emmanuel!!!😎🖒
God bless you brother.........
Only a Man who sincerely loves could play this way! Так мог сыграть только Человек, который искренне любит!
Listening to this today at 2.30am thinking of my uncle who passed a few years back. Lovely!
Man wow, the best acoustic guitarist of the world.
I love “into” the music Tommy is! 💕
I love the skill with which Tommy positions his hand so that he can pick the notes and chords with relative ease... And sound pretty. (When I try it, it sounds like I am administering an enema to an angry baboon...🤭)..
😂😂😂
Look at his face, he reeeeeally loves his craft, how nice :3
One of Tommy's greatest musical gifts is his ability to open and express his inner soul in his playing. His technical command of the instrument is incredible, of course. But, it is the conveyance of love from his heart that makes his playing so special.
Listening to Tommy's videos has filled my life and transformed me in one way or anothet. I listened to his musics, learned and try playing them myself and in turn added another joy to my life. Those music I couln't learn I will play just to enjoy it as if I were playing. This song did really transported me back to 1979 as a junior student in Standard 1 when heard this song for the first time. Almost 50 years now and the memories are still as sweet as they were. God bless you for your musics and share sir. This is a gift to you to be shared and uplift others who needs inspirations wherever they might be. Bless you.
T.E.: the man who never met a passing chord that he could pass up. For us, I should say, that is a very good thing.
So stunning, effortless yet so complex. Amazing Tommy 😍
I love the feeling he puts into his playing!
The sound of this guitar is simply amazing, you can sense the seasoned wood.
How can people even think of giving this a thumbs down??? Is it that you don't like the song (then go away and watch something else) or you don't think Tommy is one of the best guitarist alive (go back under your rock)??? This is so beautiful, tender and well played.
Great work by Tommy and the soundguy
I Really love it.... but more than that I like your old guitar. I wonder, what the guitar may have seen in life....
A lot of happy faces I dare say.
this guitar goes around the world with Tommy 300+ concerts a year(yep basically a concert every day), indeed a lot of happy faces all around the world.
High Five it just looks old, tommy has it worn down in spots for different drum tones. It's really only like 5 years old
After one of Tommy's Master Classes, he invited us to come up and play 'his' guitar -(it wasn't his drum kit guitar, but one that still had finish on it.) The sad truth was I hated it! The action was like a shredder's guitar, string buzzes all over the place, etc. I play mostly on nylon strings and I found this instrument appalling. His comment was 'Well when it's amped you don't hear any of that..."
Michael J Conway that's because it wasn't made for you
Man i still hearing this fingerstyle, and yet..still amazing!
He is definitely one of the very best! Thanks, Tommy! For all the happiness you share!
Oh that's so beautiful. (But sad too, cos he really wanted to be able to sing.) Love you Tommie. You're amazing. You'll be singing in heaven.
Wdym in heaven
@@Justin14379 You're right, not for me to say. It was more of a wish or dream.
This guys a musical genius
He sure is JT---Just saw him in concert in Hartford,CT. I was awestruck!
The desert is dry
Wow. How could anyone not like this performance?
Потом, через десятки лет, мы будем гордиться, что жили в "эпоху Томми". Спасибо тебе за твой талант!
THANK YOU RUclips!
THANK YOU TECHNOLOGY!
I'm so glad to watch his incredible performance and hear such a beautiful sound of guitar.
Tommy you're a natural. YOU HAVE THE GIFT!
At my office and needed to focus, this is just perfect! oh the melodies
the most relaxing fingerstyle ive heard
If Heaven has a soundtrack I bet this is on it.
Michael C yes propably at the big escalator 😀
@@TheCodeTinkerer or elevator 😂
How can you play this absolutely perfect! No mistakes and emphasise every note perfect! If there is anyone in this world on guitar perfect? Its Tommy!!!
Best tone of any finger style steel string player ever ever. GOLDEN TONE!
비가 내리는 날 우산속에 사랑하는 사람과 함께 이어폰을 나눠꽂고 걸어가며 듣고싶은 노래
I don’t watch this around my guitar
Ha.
😂
thx for good advice
you made my day with that comment!
I caught my guitar strumming itself to this video :(
What an amazing musician. his absolute gift of musical structure and tone makes for a dreamlike state of being when absorbing this heavenly flow of sound delights.
Tommy, when are you coming to South Africa?
+Peter Stockwell It is NOT a gift. He practices his butt off and does not forget what he has learned and he listens.
+Walter Boruta It's a "gift" for us to be able to hear.
+Walter Boruta Let's not deny the element of natural talent. Some people don't have an ear for music, lack rhythm, and no creative imagination for music. This fellow has all of that AND practices.
+kamaboko1 Some people put constant conscious effort into their passions even when
they aren't playing or active in whatever passion. Some people have been
active in their passions since they were young children. Claiming
"natural talent" is extremely discrediting at what people have worked
constantly to be able to achieve. Everyone perceives their own progress
differently, everyone sucks before they are good and comfortable, but
then "good and comfortable" doesn't mean excellent, it means we still
have to push harder to feel okay with our progress, maybe he's not
finished with his. From our perspective, it's hard to imagine much
better. Have some respect, professionals all started as novices, they
just didn't stop and they didn't put hard work and skill on some
unreachable pedestal called "natural talent".
+dankhanks Exactly. Professionals can be practicing up to 6 hours/day, which is ridiculously long.
The King of melody ladies and gentlemen Mr. Burt Bacharach
Le meilleur musicien acoustic que je connaisse ! Chapeau l'artiste...Comme d'habitude d'ailleurs
Just brilliant Tommy. As always.👏
He looks so happy playing it :)
Wow! Maestro! Tone, tune, tamber! Come back to Pensacola.
How the hell does he make it so easy?? . . A perfect rendition of a beautiful song.. He's without doubt the most versatile and best guitarist on this planet for sure. Pure genius.
beautiful melody and guitar played by you.. identifiable. tanks Tommy
Could be only guitar players really know how great this song was played.
I'm a metalhead but sometimes this acoustic versions are so amazing
Why do birds suddenly appear
Every time you are near?
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you
Why do stars fall down from the sky
Every time you walk by?
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you
On the day that you were born the angels got together
And decided to create a dream come true
So they sprinkled moon dust in your hair
Of golden starlight in your eyes of blue
That is why all the girls in town
(Girls in town)
Follow you
(Follow you)
All around
(All around)
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you
On the day that you were born the angels got together
And decided to create a dream come true
So they sprinkled moon dust in your hair
Of golden starlight in your eyes of blue
That is why all the girls in town
(Girls in town)
Follow you
(Follow you)
All around
(All around)
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you
(Why? Close to you)
(Why? Close to you)
(Haa, close to you)
(Why? Close to you)
how can you not like this guy. rapidly becoming my favorite guitarists. yes
Din partea mea umila si pielea de gaina am. Voi fi un copil curios sa ascult. Grazie per SEMPRE VOI
Excelente! Esplêndido! Belíssima interpretação!
Like wise
Tommy doesn't arrange music.
He rearranges it using his magical powers.
Why do birds, suddenly appear, every time, tommy plays?
Why do you, have commas, after every, couple of words?
Praz M to simulate the rhythm of the song, i guess.
Pick Nickle hahaha
They're vultures..!
I read the comment and suddenly I heard birds singing, lovely :)
This song shows the deep pool of love in his heart.
I've played the guitar for 55 years, some might say I'm good, BUT, when I see this master play......... I shake my head and ponder, How? He does stuff that just doesn't seem possible, yet, he is proof that it can.
