Thank you for your kind words Nicole! Yes, I’ve always loved this song and am so glad Justin taught it so I could play it properly finally. I’ve always kind of strummed it until now, not the same!..
Wow, Benji! Great job! Picking, strumming, singing. Impressive. I really like Tracy Chapman. Her singing style inspired my singing. Especially in GIVE ME ONE REASON. (Of course, I don’t sing like her though ). Maybe Justin will teach that song one day. Anyway, well done!
Thanks pkboo! Yeah, Give Me One More Reason would be a sweet one to learn as well. I think just about every song on Crossroads is almost a classic…
Very nice, Benji!!!
I especially liked your strumming style, think it worked very well with this song! Fingerstyle was very good & I felt that the vocals were stronger as the song progressed… maybe try to “project” as well in the beginning as you did towards the end - this isn’t really an issue, though… your voice really suited this song!
I’m going to second Pamela’s @pkboo3 suggestion though - Give Me One Reason would be a great song for your vocals and playing style!
Thanks for sharing this!

Thanks for taking a listen Tod, and I appreciate the feedback!
Amazing concentration. Bruce
Thanks Bruce!
Great work that’s a hard one to play and sing at the same time I think. Great job!!
Thanks Goog, yeah, it took a minute to get the timing down, especially since there was both strumming and finger picking.
