The best part of this is that Andy is using a pick, and doing a lot of really difficult string skipping strum patterns...just kinda proves that he's great at everything.
@Ravewander Ewan Dobson, Matthew McGhee, and Andy McKee are the virtuosos in this field. Their music inspires me more than anyone I know, other than Jimi Hendrix.
Andy, I love listening to you, especially in those momentous things i enjoy in life. Especially when i put my boat in the water and go fishing. Your music is so relaxing and peacefully enjoyable. This song has been playing while I catch my best catches. I wish you could be on my boat while we fish just playing, you of course would fish as well. But I think you get the picture. Love what you do, keep it up!
Wow, that was amazing...I just listened to it at least 8 times in a row, and if the neighbors weren't pounding on the walls I'd listen to it some more. :)
Andy Mckee is, and will always be, my guitar god. I watched this in 2007 and I just watched this in 2016. i'm still speechlessly in awe. He deserves more popularity and views yknow.
Ironically, this is making me feel really old right now as I randomly noticed the date this was published. Looking at today's date...how the heck did 8 years pass so quickly??! I feel like it was just the other day when Andy published this song!
I'm Thai, I'm not good at English. I use a translation that does not matter, I would say to you that, thanks. That you were born on this planet. I do not know what your music means. But when I listen to it. I am very happy.
I would rather listen to Andy play stuff like this than most anything else I've ever heard. I really enjoy getting out my acoustic and playing along as best I can. I don't have adjectives to adequately describe how talented Andy is in my opinion.
It's sad to think if it wasn't for RUclips, no one would know who he was. I'm glad great artist like these have an outlet other than main stream media or else we'd never know.
i think with more songs i hear by Andy i think he gets better every time and thats hard to do for someone that is already a master at his craft . beautiful work !
He was a part of my early memories. I mistakenly believed he was using the fretboard's touch screen functions to play the guitar. Despite having many chords and melodies, it was so fluid and effortless. Every sound and musical composition of his touches my soul.
Uilleann pipes would sound fantastic playing the melody over this. Mind you I think it’s already fantastic just the way it is. I love Andy’s work. It just has that Irish feel to it
Who and why would anyone thumbs down anything he's done. ?? Must be crazy or accidental. I just can't wrap my brain around the thought. Andy McKee for president 16'
its fanned frets. it makes it so the lower strings are longer and the higher strings are shorter on the neck. adds more bass and treble, he explained it at his show i went to in nyc it sounds so nice
Just to add to the learning; fanned frets emulate multiple scale lengths, to maintain the same average tension over the strings, it's something usually used in things like 8 strings, to make sure one end isn't too tight or particularly floppy. But yes, it does help the intonation too. I believe Andy has it for when his tunings take large steps, ie, tuning to B.
It's Peter from Best Buy Westiminister. I'm no longer with Best Buy. I moved on and I'm obtaining my A.A.S. This ditty was a big help for positive re-enforcement. I still dream, but now I do it in style. When my new music comes out. I would love to bend your ear.
5 dislikes? And what do you play? Andy I get such inspiration watching your videos and have huge appreciation for your original style! Keep on rockin out on your humungus guitars in such cooool tunings!!!
Over 12 years later and I’m still coming back to this version ☺️❤️
Dear god. I come for Andy McKee, and a Justin Beiber ad plays first that I can't skip or stop. I've never been so musically offended.
When I first heard this song I could've sworn there were TWO guitars playing at once. Evidently, I forgot how talented Andy Mckee is.
say WHAT? this man made a deal with heaven and hell to play that good. keep on rocking man.
This song will--
*dons a pair of sunglasses while majestically staring into your soul*
never grow old.
The best part of this is that Andy is using a pick, and doing a lot of really difficult string skipping strum patterns...just kinda proves that he's great at everything.
I love guitarists who make everything they do on the instrument look incredibly easy.
I listen to Andy almost everyday while I work, love his music. All of his songs "Never Grow Old".

How is this song not more popular? This is, by far, one of Andy's top five songs and it doesn't even have 200,000 views? Shame.
Came here from the new Tripliciti release. Gotta pay respect where it started - absolutely beautiful, hopeful and dynamic. Thank you for sharing
Andy, I love listening to you, especially in those momentous things i enjoy in life. Especially when i put my boat in the water and go fishing. Your music is so relaxing and peacefully enjoyable.

Love what you do, keep it up!
I will never understand how anyone can dislike any of Andy Mckee's song
That’s the thing- nobody does 😎
Andy McKee- The one man, who shows acoustic guitarists a new league
Wow, that was amazing...I just listened to it at least 8 times in a row, and if the neighbors weren't pounding on the walls I'd listen to it some more. :)
For some reason you remindes me of the boy from August rush. Impossibly talented and genius :) Love your music.

Once again I'm back here to hear this masterpiece. Damn the feelings never gets old.

Thank you, Andy Mckee! =)
Perfect title for this song. As always,Andy has the best named melodies
This guy is The World's Finest Guitar...
Another Song to Learn! :)
Such a good piece of music, adore it! Andy is one of those who definitely makes this world better. Thank you!
I'm Thai, I'm not good at English. I use a translation that does not matter, I would say to you that, thanks. That you were born on this planet. I do not know what your music means. But when I listen to it. I am very happy.
this guy has got some serious talent. and his talent wont ever grow old and neither
he will.
Valuable insight is so rare on the internet these days! I guess McKee fans are just cooler than the rest.
been listening to this over and over again! it NEVER GROWS OLD!
This is, by far, my favorite song by you.
I would rather listen to Andy play stuff like this than most anything else I've ever heard. I really enjoy getting out my acoustic and playing along as best I can. I don't have adjectives to adequately describe how talented Andy is in my opinion.
Congratulations Andy...
Your song is a medicine to my ears... =D
Beautiful. This song captures me in a way I can't describe.
Andy McKee - the one man quartet!
It's sad to think if it wasn't for RUclips, no one would know who he was. I'm glad great artist like these have an outlet other than main stream media or else we'd never know.
I think this is my favourite Andy Mckee song! So beautiful.
andy mckee - the song will never grow old. well played.

I'll marry those fingers! Salute to the man!
this guy doesnt get enuff credit. he's simply amazing. andy mckee rules

Listening to this song makes me want to become a better person.
That solo back into the main riff is the cleanest playing ever! Makes me sick haha
Everything you write is beautiful my friend
This song feels like travelling music... it evokes images of long hours driving through beautiful scenery and environments... Cue video montage! ;)
i think with more songs i hear by Andy i think he gets better every time and thats hard to do for someone that is already a master at his craft . beautiful work !
Whoa, this is probably my favorite of McKee's songs! Well done
AMAZING MAN, AMAZING GUITARIST, ANDY YOU HAVE AN AMAZING SOUL
I'm blinded by your awesomeness...again
He was a part of my early memories.
I mistakenly believed he was using the fretboard's touch screen functions to play the guitar.
Despite having many chords and melodies, it was so fluid and effortless.
Every sound and musical composition of his touches my soul.
I literally can't get enough of this.
Post Andy McKee on your FaceSpace, Twit, or whatever you have. He deserves promotion more than the biebers and gagas of the world.
I love this song. He has so many good songs, but for me this song is quite special.
one of my favorites from you Andy, you should play it more often ;)
thank you again Andy
Uilleann pipes would sound fantastic playing the melody over this. Mind you I think it’s already fantastic just the way it is. I love Andy’s work. It just has that Irish feel to it
THIS! is a true musician.
andy needs to go and play in the transatlantic sessions. this song would be wonderful with a celtic vibe

Andy McKee - The most emotional acoustic guitar player ever/ God
Dude is such a BEAST
this just blew my mind.
