          Nice one Lights, that’s a catchy little tune, foot-tapping stuff. It even has some blue notes in it. Loved the ending!

                      Very fine playing & finger picking from you again.
                      Glad you could make it to the challenge.
                      Great song.

                        Nicely done, so fun and great finger picking. Love the western swing vibe from your rendition. I really like the run at the ending, so well executed. Great submission, I enjoyed listening to this.

                          Nice happy song with constantly changing chords picking out the melody, I’d find that quite a challenge but you mastered it.

                              That bounced along with a fun, swing feel. Terrific finger picking on what looked a challenging peice.
                              Merry Christmas to you and yours too Meelis
