    When "going to a music store" becomes a thing again, you should totally go to a few and make a reaction video, although perhaps some of these versions will need a bit of a rework to find the sweet spot between "they know it's a forbidden song" and "but I kind of want to see how it goes"!

    I burst in laughter when you yawned on the arpeggio intro of "Stairway To Heaven". You are as good as a comedian as a guitar virtuoso. Keep on playing and having fun Lucas. I am waiting for you tour in France. Hope makes me live (a French proverb)

    the most entertaining channel I know....Your playing is discouragingly good and your arrangements are exquisite. And on top of everything, you can also sing...

    The chord progression and intonation after 7:00 til 7:43 had me imagine a romance, falling in love, breaking up and regaining hope in life, all within 15 seconds :D
    Some of these re-harmonizations are, in the truest sense of the word, beautiful.

    I love your jazz takes on these classics. Get a trio together and think about touring.
