2024 here. Still support this timeless masterpiece

2021....many things changed....but here we are....hearing this great old song....

It's 2023 and haven't watched this for over 15 years. Now I'm unlocking some core memories from hearing this melody. Thank you Andy, 2007 was a great year.

2022. I remember watching this back when I was a senior in highschool. 15 years later and this is still a timeless work of art.

Oh Boy, It’s 2020 and i‘m watching this again.

I remember when this was the most popular video on YT

This really inspired a whole generation of guitarists.

this song makes me nostalgic for a simpler time in my life. Cant believe it took me so many years to revisit it

Been 10 years. This never gets old

A message to the future generations, don't let this song die....

Here I am 16 years later still finding this as such a beautiful creation. I still remember finding this in HS and sharing it with my dad.

2024 who’s here for this masterpiece

I remember when this video was at 2 million views and I thought THAT was amazing.

Remember that feeling at 0:18 in 2006? Changed my life.

2023 and I looked that song up for over an hour. It’s now 1:14am and I am so glad I didn’t give up. Heard it the first time in 2011. It’s simply a great piece of art! Glad I found it again. ❤

One of the original KZfaq greats right here folks. Never gets old even 14 years later. Rock on Andy McKee

i remember watching this on basic youtube back in the days

whatched this in 2006, never ever thought i would be able to play it, 14 years later.... and i still can't =)

This man inspired millions (litterally) of guitarrist around the world. Including me, when I was 12 in 2006. All I have to say is thank you, Andy.

15 years later... almost 60 million views later.... still coming back and listening... still amazing

I remember when I first saw this video there was a comment saying that he played so well, all the hairs on his head came down to listen more closely. This was 10 years ago and I still find it hilarious. Love the song, brings back so many memories. How times have changed so quickly!

Anyone else still watching this in 2020? Classic. Andy is the reason I started playing guitar.

I can finally play this song, after 14 years of dreaming of it. What gets me is how he is able to do the whole thing in one go without screwing up, I struggle so much

This video really is a certified hood classic. I discovered it in 7th grade when I begun my acoustic journey. I’m 26 now! Andy McKee is truly inspiring; I play fingerstyle because of him.

9 years later...can't believe it's been so long...

This song made me start guitar all those years ago, forever grateful!

My bass player showed me this in high school. Graduated in 2006, he is still my bass player today.

Just saw Andy for the first time last night , opening fog Tommy Emanuel. What a remarkable guitarist! I had to look him up today. A night to remember

Seven years later, it still rocks. Thanks for the inspiration, Andy.

First heard this in 2006. Andy Mckee's videos what started my KZfaq experience I'm still here 2014.

2024. I remember being in high school about 2008-2009 ish listening to this and being in awe. Here we are, still in awe over 16 years later...time flies, but legendary songs like this never die ✌️

15 years ago you made me buy my first guitar just so you know. 15 years gone, and still learning this song because I'm always ending up just laying down and listening to it...

This piece is timeless!

its been 8years, still legend

FINALLY I FOUND THIS VERSION!!! To me this is his best rendition

Been trying to recall the name of this masterpiece as my bestfriend had this on his iPod touch! Still an absolute gem!

Never gets old...and it is been almost 10 years!

10 years~ i'm still watching!!!

No matter when you see it, it never gets old and the flawless execution remains.

One of KZfaq's very first "viral videos." This is the video that got me started with Andy, and Candyrat, like so many others. Here I am, some 15 years later, still jamming out!

13 years and this is still just so incredible. Bring us into 2020, Andy.

Love the way some people like this take the traditional way of doing things and showing the world there's a better way.

I cant believe this song is 15 years old. I remember listening to this with my buddies in high-school.. such a nostalgia trip

Good tunes never die, they always find their way through the ever-changing times

10 years It's been since I found this masterpiece and completely freaked!...I'm getting old! xD

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ANDY MCKEE!!!! See the man live at LEAST once, at some point in your lives guys. That would be an excellent gift, both to yourselves and him!

Higschool, 2007. Came home just to listen to andy. Previous to having wifi all over, no high speed 4g and hyperconnectivity. Just me, my bicycle and my red nokia 5200 What a fucking great ride it was. Now im here, 2024, life is still fucking good. Wish you all the readers out there the best of the luck, live your life, love your parents, be good to the elders. Life will reward you

When I first saw this video, I was 14 or 15. At the time there was a local music venue in town that my life basically revolved around. It was a big deal for a lot of us kids. This video was UNREAL to us, and spread like wildfire. Clearly, we weren’t the only music scene that was captivated. I’m now 28 and working a corporate job, with a house and three pets lol. The past 14 years have been filled with hurdles - some self induced and others out of my control. Sometimes I miss the simpler times, but this song still gives me a sense of hope and appreciation for life that it gave me when I first heard it.

Andy McKee was the first "youtube artist" I started following. I fell in love with his style, then bought the download for The Art of Motion. Glad to see 10 years later and people still love him.

Not sure if this makes me want to quit music forever, or inspires me to get better

14 years later and people are still watching this. This was ground breaking for me at the time. I didn't know that a person is capable of doing such things to a guitar. My mind was blown I almost didn't believe it.

Even when I have zero time/spoons to engage in social media platforms, I'll still find space to scroll Andy's feeds and hit him with a like on every new video and post I see because he shaped my entire musical anatomy and I'll never be the same after this song. Simply stunning. Find him on all the sites and like every single thing if you feel the same. He deserves it.

The nostalgia in this for me. I remember watching this when KZfaq just started and I was learning to play guitar. The years have flow by

Makes you almost wanna tear up a little it's so good

apparently i need to retype my comment... this song has gotten me through so many ups and downs, I honestly can't explain how much this song got me through the day ❤

Andy has such a unique playstyle, he can do whatever he wants with the guitar and it's like it listens to him, plus the melodies he creates are beautiful... What an inspiration !

Still top notch in 2018

man i remember posting this vid on my myspace page

I come back to this video often though out the years. Truly an amazing song

Came back here after 15 years! We have moved from 240p to 4K,bit the magic of Andy is still the same! ❤️

God this memory was buried so deep in my mind I had to call my sister to see if she remembered thank god she did 💕

I can't believe this video is at 50 million views! The last time I watched it was about 8 years ago when it hit 300k and I thought it was amazing then!

Keeps on going from the day this released., never get bored. One of the smoothest acoustic guitar works.

2021 and still blows my mind. Thank you Andy. Totally changed my playing after this video. Opened up a whole new world of fun for me.

Can't believe this is my first time listening to this. Really missed out

How could anyone that likes music at all dislike this? I would give anything to play like that.

My favorites list keeps spitting out great vids from 14 years ago, and I am grateful just to be here to hear them again!

Just remembered this song - but couldn’t remember name of the artist - took me ages to find haven’t watched this video for over a decade - but thankfully rediscovered it. Incredible piece and performance.

Cool. I met Michael Hedges when I was 16 at the University Theater in Palo Alto. We watched him play live all summer outdoors. He played every Friday and Saturday night for 3 months. . It was a magical time........1984.

Finally found my favorite guitar song after 10 years.

This is yrs old indeed but still one of the best finger picking I've ever seen and the whole song flows

One of the first videos I ever watched on KZfaq in 2007 ❤ please never delete this beautiful performance by Andy!

I watched this 14 years ago?! Damn... feel old yet? Still the best.

I was in Andy's concert in my Hometown 15min. Ago. Just impressive!

Wow, I can’t believe it 2021 with just about 60million views now! Thank you for your gift Andy. You and Prince are truly remarkable people.

This is the reason I started playing guitar. So inspiring. So unique for its time. This sound will always be refreshing and clean. What a song. Andy I hope you understand the impact you had on new musicians even though you are not considered a significant artist. This IS music at its finest. Still in awe.

I remember when the original most liked comment was something along the lines of, "Wow even all of his hair moved closer to hear his guitar better"

This song got me into guitar. Thought I'd never play like that Now some 10 odd years later, there it is again! Goosebumps..

I saw this video the year it was uploaded and to see it back in my recommended feed in 2023 is just... wonderful. Might have a small tear in my eye.

Man this song is as beautiful as ever. Haven’t listened to it in nearly 13 years and still it’s a timeless masterpiece. Hope you are still rocking and creating these works of art out there Andy!

Such a pleasant tune that brings back old memories like the cool autumn breeze 🔥

even 10 years later whew damn. amazing

god i love this so much.....listened this masterpiece first time sometime during 2011 and now its 2021. the melody just takes you through your own past memories.....absolute beautiful music!

😢wow this brings back so memories, this help me thru so much pain and made me pic up a guitar. This old guitar has rescue me countless times!

Every single dislike is probably because of the quality. We want this in high definition! :P

Proof that a video can have a resolution as low as 240P but, if your sound is on point and able to capture something like this so well it doesn't matter.

Just like so many other people I'm sitting here listening to this in 2022 and I first heard this song over 10 years ago and it sounds just as good as when I first heard it, makes me think of so many good times playing guitar with old friends who I kept in touch with and some I've lost touch with but those memories will always be there and to be able to listen to a song that brings all those memories back is something quite special. Thank you for that Andy

Been listening to this since last 10 years, shows up on my feed every now n then. I'm amazed that it still feels the same way, revives old memories.

Watching this in 2019, can't belive it's been 13 years since this was released here on KZfaq and it's still the number one fingerstyle guitar video to this very day!

13 years later and I keep coming back to this video year after year, i freaking love music!

Can't believe it...listening to this as it was yesterday, and still love it

man I still remember watching this song back in 2006 for the first time. totally flashed by this massive talent and composition I've spent many weeks during the upcoming summer holidays learning and practicing this masterpiece as a teenager. After all these years it still brings me so much joy, especially when showing off skills to friends and family. thx Andy 🤘🏼

If you're still watching this, congratulations on not dying 😛

all the memories, what a golden time, I will never forget this piece.

17 years now and this song still giving me goosebumps.

ive been watching this vid for 15 years now and its still awe inspiring

59m views and this is still an unknown gem. Blows my mind Until I remember 58m of those views was just me watching it over and over

2023. I found this masterpiece when I was probably 8-10yo, I’m 24 now. I often hear this melody in my mind. It’s been 14-16 years since my ears were first blessed with Drifting and I’ll never forget it.

I found this at least 15 years ago - and my brain still remembered the beautiful melody and chords of this. I couldn't remember your name, but I remembered ever note and sweeping chord of this piece. This performance and song is truly legendary and I'm so thankful I found it again.

10 years on I come back to Andy to relax and cool down. thanks for being there. Andy.
