After Wings disbanded in 1981, Juber embarked on a career as a solo artist, composer and arranger, and soon developed a reputation as a world-class guitar virtuoso, being voted #1 by Fingerstyle Guitar magazine. He has released 12 critically acclaimed solo albums, including "LJ Plays the Beatles", "Guitarist" and "One Wing". His latest release "I've Got The World On 6 Strings", is a collection of solo guitar arrangements of tunes by Harold Arlen, composer of 'Over The Rainbow', and 'Stormy Weather' among many other classics.
Juber's DVD "Guitar Noir" is 'DVD Etc.' magazine's top pick for surround-sound 5.1 audio and earned a 2005 CEA "Demmy" award for sonic excellence. His solo guitar arrangement of "The Pink Panther Theme" is featured on the Best Pop Instrumental GRAMMY®-winning album "Henry Mancini-Pink Guitar".
Folios and DVDs of his compositions and arrangements are published by Alfred Publications and Hal Leonard. The venerable C.F. Martin Company currently offers an ‘LJ’ Signature model guitar and GHS Strings market Juber's Signature guitar strings.
All of Me
Laurence Juber Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You taught me how to care
Am I to be just the remnant of a one-sided love affair?
All you took, I gladly gave
There's nothing left for me to save
All of me why not take all of me
Can't you see I'm no good without you
Take my arms I'll never use them
Your good bye left me with eyes that cry
How can I go on dear without you
You took the part that once was my heart
So why not take all of me

Line by Line Meaning
You took my kisses and you took my love
You had all my passion and affection and you took it away from me
You taught me how to care
You made me learn how to love someone deeply
Am I to be just the remnant of a one-sided love affair?
Do I have to be the only one that still cares about this relationship that was mostly one-sided?
All you took, I gladly gave
No matter how much you took from me, I was always happy to give it to you
There's nothing left for me to save
I have given you everything I had, there is nothing else left for me to save
All of me why not take all of me
Since you took everything else, why not just take everything I am?
Can't you see I'm no good without you
I am not complete without you, I need you in my life to feel happy and fulfilled
Take my lips I want to lose them
I don't want to kiss anyone else if it's not you, take away the desire to kiss from me
Take my arms I'll never use them
I don't want anyone else to hold me if it's not you, take away the desire to hold from me
Your good bye left me with eyes that cry
Your farewell made me cry so much that my eyes are still full of tears
How can I go on dear without you
I don't know how to live without you by my side, I need you to keep going
You took the part that once was my heart
You took away the love and affection that used to be the core of my being
So why not take all of me
Since you've taken so much already, why not take everything else that I have?

Absolutely a joy to watch and to see perform. I've seen him 5 or 6 times; he's the only fingerstyle performer my wife enjoys seeing. I never tire of his music. Thnaks for posting such a high quality video.
