Great tune from the 60s. Here is what Wikipedia has to say about it:

"Everybody's Talkin'" is a folk rock song released by Fred Neil in 1966 that became a global success for Harry Nilsson in 1969, reaching #2 and #6 on the Billboard Adult Contemporary chart and Pop Singles chart respectively and winning a Grammy after it was featured on the soundtrack for the film Midnight Cowboy. The song, which describes the speaker's desire to retreat from other people to the ocean, is among the most famous works of both artists. It has become a standard, covered by many notable artists. The song later appeared in the 1994 film Forrest Gump and is also on the soundtrack.

It is a particular favorite of mine because of the completely sublime version that is performed by the great uke duo Bosko and Honey.

Fantastic playing as usual Jon.
Youtube messed up again and removed my notification. I had you setup to notify me when you upload a new video but it got hosed up somehow. Stumbled upon it here.
 
Nicely done. Your version of "Tiptoe" is still my alltime favorite.
