    Love how you break it down, smooth and easily accessible to any guitarist level! Thanks again Nicko for all of your videos, really classy. I know I’m late it commenting, but it turns out my granddaughter loves this song which I’m obligated to master!

    Man, already with the acoustic intro you're pretty much spot on with the guitar! You're incredible! So glad I found your channel, better late than never! Cheers!

    Yeah, it isn’t. It’s a rock song and kind of repetitive.

    When the Video to this song had its live release last year at exactly 8 pm in germany, I had goosebumps and tears in my eyes. The song is so beautiful. Very laid back but yet still pushing forward slowly with great and thoughtful lyrics. I love the acoustic Intro and the slow rhythm. Thanks for the insightful upload.

    So no-one is talking about the riff between the solos? it's just perfect riff...you could close yourself up with a guitar and try to write a better riff to glue to two soloes together, but you won't write anything better....

    The moment I heard this tune for the first time, I was hooked. It's a deeper album that many realize and I think it caught many off guard, which is why I think some didn't "get it" on a first or second listen, etc. Thanks for the breakdown, it's always a great way to learn.

    Thanks for this, Nico! Your breakdowns are just fantastic man! You also make the notes sound so effortless - excellent control and muting. Man I wish I could play that cleanly! Rock on bro and Up The Irons!

    So I do like the song. I also think Adrian's solo in it is an absolute masterpiece. I mean Mas-ter-piece! There is just one thing that keeps bugging me. I am sorry if you now hear this to.

    Esta canção é realmente incrível!!! O solo do Smith é fenomenal, um dos melhores que ele já compôs. This song is really amazing!!! Smith's solo is phenomenal, one of the best he's ever written. (Forgive-me my english).

    I too was waiting with the anticipation of a kid on Christmas Eve. My thoughts were bouncing around like a kangaroo on coke, it’s going to be great, but they’re getting old maybe it won’t be as good as their previous stuff but it doesn’t have to be to be great, I really hope it’s good. Then I heard writing on the wall. My eyes filled with tears of joy, I was so happy I could hardly talk. I simply couldn’t believe what I was hearing they had done it again, no they had outdone it again. It was glorious, orders of magnitude better that totally shit hot. I still can’t get it out of my head.
