Thanks for those suggestions. I'm constantly tweaking the way I make the tutorials to make them more useful. Strumming patterns has definitely been a question I get a lot, so most of my more current tutorials, I go over the strumming in detail. I may devote an episode completely to strumming and finding strumming patterns for songs in general. That's a good topic.]]></description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In reply to <a href="https://simplifiedguitar.com/how-to-play-lord-i-need-you-by-matt-maher/#comment-24">Elmo Bryan Pinpin</a>.</p> <p>Thanks for those suggestions.

This breakdown helps a lot as I've been introduced to the concepts of beats and how it relates to strumming. I personally think it would enrich your videos if you add this information for future tutorials (just my opinion of course). Or perhaps a great tutorial is how to take a song, look at a tab sheet (like those found in guitar tabs) and apply a strumming pattern to it? Or is that too advanced? Anyway just thoughts. Thanks again and I'll try my best to learn this song cause it's one of my favourites!]]></description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Thanks Jonathan!

Hey man, thanks for the kind words! The strum pattern I'm playing on this tutorial is a bit complicated and would be hard to follow to the T because I wasn't exactly consistent throughout the song. (it's one of the first tutorials I recorded). But if you're just learning the guitar, there's a much simpler strum pattern you can use. This song is in 4/4 time, meaning there are 4 beats per measure. So if we break the strum pattern down into those 4 beats, you can strum down for each beat with an upstrum at the very end of the measure to repeat. It would look like this: D / D / D / D U For something similar, you can check out the strum pattern for <a href="https://simplifiedguitar.com/how-to-play-in-the-air-tonight-by-phil-collins/">this tutorial</a> on "in the air tonight". The only difference is this strum pattern has 2 strums per beat instead of 1, so its 8 downstrums and then the upstrum at the end. You would just break that in half to use for "Lord I Need You". That's a much easier strum pattern to learn and play with. Once you get comfortable with that, you can always use other strum patterns later. I hope that all makes sense and is helpful. Good luck!]]></description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In reply to <a href="https://simplifiedguitar.com/how-to-play-lord-i-need-you-by-matt-maher/#comment-22">Elmo Bryan Pinpin</a>.</p> <p>Hey man, thanks for the kind words!<br /> The strum pattern I’m playing on this tutorial is a bit complicated and would be hard to follow to the T because I wasn’t exactly consistent throughout the song.

My first time leaving a comment and I must commend you for making these videos and helping me (a beginner) learn to play a guitar. Would it be possible for you to break down your strumming pattern for this song? Right now I'm learning by ear and sometimes I have a hard time figuring this bit out. Thanks and looking forward to hearing from you!]]></description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hi Jonathan!
