That guy is very good. It takes a lot of practice to do that.

I also love brazilian guitar and just found this guy. He has a lot of good videos.

I also love Brazilian guitar and Brazilian jazz. I used try to imitate Charlie Byrd's style (not that I am as good).

Here is one from his Brazilian album that I used to try to imitate Girl from Ipanema it was composed by Antonio Carlos Jobim (who also plays great guitar):


If bossa nova is what you like Antonio Carlos Jobim made it very popular in the 60's. Here is a medley with Antonio and Frank Sinatra:


Elevator music to some I guess but soothing for others.
 
Maybe it's the iodine...

three dog night - easy to be hard

How can people be so heartless
How can people be so cruel
Easy to be hard
Easy to be cold
How can people have no feelings
How can they ignore their friends
Easy to be proud
Easy to say no
Especially people who care about strangers
Who care about evil and social injustice
Do you only care about the bleeding crowd
How about a needy friend
I need a friend
How can people be so heartless
You know I'm hung up on you
Easy to be proud
Easy to say no
Especially people who care about strangers
Who care about evil and social injustice
Do you only care about the bleeding crowd
How about a needy friend
We all need a friend
How can people be so heartless
How can people be so cruel
Easy to be proud
Easy to say no
Easy to be cold
Easy to say no
Come on, easy to be mean
Easy to say no
Easy to be cold
Easy to say no
Much too easy to say no

 
“In the song April the 14th she describes the doomed heroism of some rock and roll bands that she met on tour and combines that story with the spooky coincidence that Abraham Lincon’s assassination, the Titanic’s collision with the iceberg and the greatest dust storm that America has ever known all occurred on the same date April the 14th.” Appropriate for today :D

Very true! Where is the love?!

SOTT's theme song, I'd say! And just imagine people in the end looking up the sky at meteor/comet fragments falls.

Thanks for sharing, Gaby. :flowers:

I've cried listening to this song again after several years! Thanks for sharing Gaby! I remember I liked it when I was younger but I didn't understand all of it. I searched the lyrics now and I see they're actually really good!

"Where Is The Love?"

What's wrong with the world, mama
People livin' like they ain't got no mamas
I think the whole world addicted to the drama
Only attracted to things that'll bring you trauma

Overseas, yeah, we try to stop terrorism
But we still got terrorists here livin'
In the USA, the big CIA
The Bloods and The Crips and the KKK

But if you only have love for your own race
Then you only leave space to discriminate
And to discriminate only generates hate
And when you hate then you're bound to get irate, yeah

Madness is what you demonstrate
And that's exactly how anger works and operates
Man, you gotta have love just to set it straight
Take control of your mind and meditate
Let your soul gravitate to the love, y'all, y'all

People killin', people dyin'
Children hurt and you hear them cryin'
Can you practice what you preach?
Or would you turn the other cheek?

Father, Father, Father help us
Send some guidance from above
'Cause people got me, got me questionin'
Where is the love (Love)

Where is the love (The love)
Where is the love (The love)
Where is the love, the love, the love

It just ain't the same, old ways have changed
New days are strange, is the world insane?
If love and peace are so strong
Why are there pieces of love that don't belong?

Nations droppin' bombs
Chemical gasses fillin' lungs of little ones
With ongoin' sufferin' as the youth die young
So ask yourself is the lovin' really gone

So I could ask myself really what is goin' wrong
In this world that we livin' in people keep on givin' in
Makin' wrong decisions, only visions of them dividends
Not respectin' each other, deny thy brother
A war is goin' on but the reason's undercover

The truth is kept secret, it's swept under the rug
If you never know truth then you never know love
Where's the love, y'all, come on (I don't know)
Where's the truth, y'all, come on (I don't know)
Where's the love, y'all

People killin', people dyin'
Children hurt and you hear them cryin'
Can you practice what you preach?
Or would you turn the other cheek?

Father, Father, Father help us
Send some guidance from above
'Cause people got me, got me questionin'
Where is the love (Love)

Where is the love (The love)?
Where is the love (The love)?
Where is the love (The love)?
Where is the love (The love)?
Where is the love (The love)?
Where is the love (The love)?
Where is the love, the love, the love?

I feel the weight of the world on my shoulder
As I'm gettin' older, y'all, people gets colder
Most of us only care about money makin'
Selfishness got us followin' the wrong direction

Wrong information always shown by the media
Negative images is the main criteria
Infecting the young minds faster than bacteria
Kids wanna act like what they see in the cinema

Yo', whatever happened to the values of humanity
Whatever happened to the fairness and equality
Instead of spreading love we're spreading animosity
Lack of understanding, leading us away from unity

That's the reason why sometimes I'm feelin' under
That's the reason why sometimes I'm feelin' down
There's no wonder why sometimes I'm feelin' under
Gotta keep my faith alive 'til love is found
Now ask yourself

Where is the love?
Where is the love?
Where is the love?
Where is the love?

Father, Father, Father, help us
Send some guidance from above
'Cause people got me, got me questionin'
Where is the love?

Sing with me y'all:
One world, one world (We only got)
One world, one world (That's all we got)
One world, one world
And something's wrong with it (Yeah)
Something's wrong with it (Yeah)
Something's wrong with the wo-wo-world, yeah
We only got
(One world, one world)
That's all we got
(One world, one world)
 
Laura Marling - Gurdjieff's Daughter


Lyrics:

If they adorn themselves with crystals
to make them look sharp
Sleep with their hand on a pistol,
they’re afraid of the dark
Well if it wakes you,
which it has to be known to,
don’t be alarmed
Darkness can’t do you harm
Fear will hurt you
And outside, if wind is beating
a tree to a bed
Don’t fear that it might be meeting
some untimely end
They do what they’re supposed
to but they have been known
to stand strong and tall,
weather it all
Take what you can
Never give orders,
just to be obeyed
Never consider yourself or others
without knowing that you’ll change
It may not surprise you,
but pride has been known to
rise up a storm
Countless lives lost
at the hands of pride and I’ll fall
Who’ll weep for them? Sometimes I do.
I do sometimes
Who weeps for them? Sometimes I do.
I do sometimes
You can’t see it, it might be behind you
Keep those eyes wide
You can’t see it, it might be behind you
Keep those eyes wide
Don’t be impressed
by strong personalities
Sincere words
are rarely sickly sweet
But if they fool you,
which they have been known to
Don’t lose your sight,
know something’s not right
and look at the stars
Be weary of being
given a name
if for some reason
you’re not considered the same
Once they name you,
they have been known to
lock you in
Statistical sin
they’d rather ignore
Who’ll weep for them? Sometimes I do.
I do sometimes
Who weeps for them? Sometimes I do.
I do sometimes
You can’t see it, it might be behind you
Keep your eyes wide
You can’t see it, it might be behind you
Keep those eyes wide
Keep your eyes on the back of your mind​
