Can we get a share for trekking through loads of mud and playing in the rain to shoot this video? haha. Shot this with my new DJI Ronin M, hope you like the much more stable footage!
I picked up guitar after my little sister took her own life. She played beautifully and left behind her two acoustic guitars which are the ones I now use. Sometimes the progress feels slow but I try to pick up and play everyday. I don't know how much time passes when I'm playing because I enjoy it so much. Listening to this song gives me that same feeling. Your ability to play guitar is an extremely powerful and wonderful gift to the world. Thank you for inspiring others with your amazing musical talent!
So sorry for your loss. I’m in the same boat. My brother took his life & left me his guitar & I’ve been playing since then. Nowhere near his level, but it’s nice to have a piece of them with you that you can play & relive memories, isn’t it?
My dad always played this song when I was going to sleep and when he passed I was trying for a long time to find this song and when I found it I was so happy I just completely broke down this is beautiful. Thanks so much
After so much time of insomnia (2years) and barely being able to sleep, I fell happily asleep to this song last 2 nights. Finally had more rest in 2 nights than I had past 2months. Thanks so much for helping me
This song is full of nostalgia for me. I have no idea why. It might be because of weird animations i watched as a child. Or maybe because it was in some movie i watched. I wish i knew why. Not only is it nostalgic, but it makes me sad. Listening to this after the loss of someone makes it 1000% times sadder. I lost a great teacher of mine a couple days ago and my senior year of high school is coming up soon. Its been a stressful year. Hopefully soon I can take some time to myself and figure myself out.
This Guy deserves more than a million subscribers. I listen to every song that he covers it is a very clean and detailed arrangement. Hands down to you man!
A little story about this song : I discovered it way back in 2007 on Deezer (a music website) but it had the wrong name. I listened to the song non stop before and after my grandfather passed away. And when my great-grandmother passed, this song helped me though it again. I tried to get the name of the song to be able to listen to it on my Ipod instead of on Deezer, but Shazam kept giving me the name of the song and the artist in Korean... About two years later, I go to my friends house. She had a piano so I asked her to play something for me. She started playing and I got goosebumps. It was the song. It was this song. I had finally found it ! I was both excited and teary eyed that day. Now, I still love the song but I try not to listen to it too often just because of all the feelings it stirs up. Anyway, thank you for your rendition of River Flows in You
:') my mom played this song on her little radio when she had a miscarriage...and on Instagram i heard my friend play it on the plane too, so I asked her what song it was and she told me it was this, and now I'm learning it on the guitar bc it's a sentimental song :')
This is the most beautiful piece I've ever heard, this song sounds great played with the guitar, it still captures the feelings perfectly. Thank you for this version.
This song makes you want to smile and cry at the same time. It invokes a soul-deep sadness, a nostalgia for a place you can't quite remember, the happiness of reflecting on the past joys of life, and a mournful sense of loss for time gone away. Thank you so much for this cover. I always find peace in this song.
Thanks man! Really wanted to keep the arpeggios in the bass along with that melody, really happy with how everything turned out with this one :) (especially after how the video day was almost a disaster haha)
Haha same, to be fair they weren't exactly appropriate footwear... I gotta get some boots. I don't mind the cold, so as long as it doesn't rain (too much) I'll be outside still!
I'm so stressed for the past months and was having sleepless nights. How come I only saw this now? This is so good that it calmed me down and almost cried (no I actually cried). Keep it up, I hope I'm not the only one who listened to this for hundreds of times and thanks for this.
I actually learned part of this song im continuing to learn i used to be like you people and think it to hard but it really isn't if you try once you start getting it you latch onto the interest and will to finish what you started
It's been a year since I discovered this gem. The magic remains intact, it's as if the music straightaway enters into your soul and sets it free, from all the worldly miseries. I keep coming back to this, it's such a treasure. 💜
I'm sorry to say but it seems like this kid has been through alot! You Express yourself through your music :) that's a marvelous concept. your somone, who is definitely "going places".
I used to love playing guitar . I can imagine this being my heaven when I die .The scenery is beautiful . I can almost here the birds singing along.This has inspired me to want to play again .
was playing this in the background as I was studying my materials for our exams but I just had to stop and watch this. it's marvelous. great performance!
Liked it even before watching. River Flows In You is one of my all time favorite songs. I'm so glad you did a cover of it!! Sounds amazing!! I'm sure this is gonna be one of your most viewed videos :)
Thanks! I;ve tried so many times over the years to find a different way to play this song, glad I could finally make the video :) We'll see, hopefully!
It's nice learning one song after another, don't let yourselves get discouraged. Keep playing on, you'll reach that one light you've been longing for. Like flowers, you'll bloom one day.
Wow this song is just... wow.... My niece should sleep and she cried throughout. I started this video And she immediately stopped crying and fell asleep. Thank you for ❤️
All that crap about dreadnaught guitars being no good for finger style music just got abombed out of the water with this video. Excelent performance James. The world needs a talent like you. Especially now. Rock on Bro.
Thanks man! Yeah, you can work with pretty much anything and it mostly comes down to taste. There are a few downfalls with normal productions dreadnoughts though, and as such my next guitar being built right now is an OM. They are designed for being played standing and aren't too comfortable when playing fingerstyle sat, and can have a somewhat slower response than ideal. The wider waste though loosens the top in an area that makes many production dreadnoughts much more responsive than similarly braced guitars from other shapes. That being said, a well made/designed dreadnought like the modified dreadnoughts from Somogyi and his apprentices are great guitars for fingerstyle!
Thank you for the time, effort, discipline, an endless hours of talking to yourself as you try to convince yourself you can do it you can do it. Beautiful playing brother
I heard this song when I first started learning guitar. This was wayyyy too advanced for me, but I told myself that one day I would learn this. 3 years later, and I have half of this song down.
Oh, congratulations! This song is so beautiful, but it looks so hard. I like how it sounds on guitar better, but I'm gonna learn it on piano for now bc I should be able to play it on that. I aspire to one day learn this on guitar!
This is definitely a challenging song but having learnt most of it I can safely say it's just as beautiful to play as it is to listen to. Good job man!
Omg, i'm your notification squad. And open my youtube when i saw u upload my favorite pieces. 1. U did a lot of Improvitation here, and it's match perfectly with background and ur style. 2. I love how you turn this song with every tunes/tabs choice. It make ur style so different from another uploader of this song, include me. 3 awesome Tuning dude. Beautiful!!

Just give it some time, I‘m learning this for about 2 weeks and it actually sounds very nice . You just need the will to practise it 👍

Thank you so much for this cover. I always find peace in this song.
me before watching: pffft you can't play this piano song on the guitar
me after: Instantly subscribed.
Kieran Josiah i think you don't know Sungha Jung then
Well listen to Sungha Jung than
All song can be played on guitar and piano
Guitar and piano are very similar.
Same
the little bit of rain pulled the vibe together and added the perfect touch. I love it
I’m glad, seeing as it made shooting it somewhat miserable 😂
2022 and still watching this. Just a timeless piece of art
Damn James, really fluent tapping right there! Good stuff 👌🏻
Thanks man! Really wanted to keep the arpeggios in the bass along with that melody, really happy with how everything turned out with this one :) (especially after how the video day was almost a disaster haha)
James Bartholomew Yeah, the outdoor-filming-days are getting numbered. Ruined a pair of shoes as well during my last session 😑
Haha same, to be fair they weren't exactly appropriate footwear... I gotta get some boots. I don't mind the cold, so as long as it doesn't rain (too much) I'll be outside still!
I was wearing white sneakers... not gonna make that mistake again
Yeah wow I never thought this is something even possible with a guitar. Not that I know the first thing about music but still. Mind blown.
Looks like you just tickling the guitar😂 so talenteddd😭😭
