Sparks Fly by Taylor Swift has been a recent favorite for Cody and I to jam on. Throughout our time hanging out, we just kind of happened to collect videos of ourselves learning, practicing and then covering the song with no intention, but to prepare for a future guitar tutorial collab together. We just happened on the idea of covering the song and when I was editing the video, I found our little "vlogs" of us practicing and thought it would be neat to share the behind the scenes process with all of you. We've put a lot of work into this song - and still our cover was not perfect by any means. I was still struggling a bit with the intro riff and singing along with it at the end and Cody missed a couple of notes during the bridge solo - he absolutely KILLED it during our practice sessions though. We just both felt it best to go with this take and not re-film it a bunch of times to get it "perfect". We loved leaving it how it naturally turned out. This is real life. No one is perfect. We make mistakes along the way on our guitar journey and this is us showing that.
This was so much fun to do and we cannot wait to have a proper guitar tutorial up for you guys!
We hope you enjoy. Comment below if you'd like to see a guitar tutorial teaching both the rhythm and lead parts. :)

Hey! My name is Michelle and I go by the persona “Guitar Goddess.” Easier to remember, right? I teach beginner/intermediate guitar lessons here on YouTube because I have a passion for both music and for helping people. My goal is to inspire & motivate people like YOU all over the world to reach their guitar goals and push through the struggles without giving up.

To me Guitar Goddess does NOT mean “I’m the best guitarist out there.” To me, the meaning of Guitar Goddess is on a much deeper and interconnected level. Guitar Goddess is that indescribable feeling I get whenever I play my guitar. I feel beautiful, confident & positive. It's unlike anything else. I feel like it's something other guitarists can relate to. Guitar Goddess does not define my skills or my playing style and I don't think the name I chose is un-deserving in any way. In my opinion, every female guitarist should be able to call herself a Guitar Goddess no matter what style of music she plays or how experienced she is. It’s not about skill. It’s about the passion.
