Great, GREAT playing! I personally didn't care for the arrangement 'cos I think that song needs a really mellow treatment.
But the playing was so good that I'm checking the rest of the songs on your channel...

Thank you so much guys. Yes, the arrangement was meant to be different than the normal mellow one you often associate this tune to. I am glad you like the picking .
