This is GREAT! Also love the civil wars version, but this one... Can you do some moonwalking while jamming on that CBG?

Shane, the tuning sounds similar to that used in Bossa Nova songs c. 1955. I bet all of those tunes "The Girl From Ipanema" etc. can be played nicely in this tuning. Thanks for the inspiration!

This is soo cool. If you need someone to dance to it, let me know.
I don't do that backwards moonwalking thing, tho. Did try it, but bumped into a door, which promptly hit ma good lady, who was bringing me ma toast and melted cheese. Hot cheese promptly fell onto the dog, Samson, who true to his name, went mad, and knocked us both off our feet.Am gonna suggest we scrap Trident, and use toast and melted cheese and Samson as our deterrent. Could be a bit of money in it for us, never know. Anyhoo, ah'm off ( those pot plants ain't gonna smoke themselves!).
Anyhoo, ah digress.......enjoyed video, 10 out a 10 :)

Nice version of the Civil Wars Version of this song. Never cared for the song until I heard their version. Yours adds that nice slide sound. Bloody flockin lovely!

Awesome. I am not a fan of the original (much prefer Michael with the Jackson 5) but that was fantastic.

So fine in so many ways.

Man, That was fantastically done. One of my favorite MJ songs.
