Godspeed You! Black Emperor 09-15-00 Unaccompanied Solo Cover

[EasterlingRus]

WHY ARE YOU SO HOT, OH MY GOD I THINK I HATE YOU

[jeromed2]

intense song eh?

[mormor39]

Amazing, you really evoke something here - something different form the original. you made it your own. Beautiful.

[TheAPC91]

WHAT DID YOU USED FOR THAT SOUND ?

[LiftYourSkinnyFist]

I've loved this cover for a couple years now; really impressed with how well you made the tabs for yourself all by ear. (Assuming it was by ear and they're not just posted all over the net somewhere.) Anyway, great video. Love the channel.

[LMadlal]

Amazing! higher quality highly wanted!

[piruliru]

BRAVO !

[JellyKT]

neat flow of emotions, beautiful

[deitpillpyramidschem]

Awesome stuff, Armand. I'm really impressed.

Would you be willing to write out a really rough guide to what it is you're playing?

I can see it's in G#m, and a decent amount of the sound can be achieved by holding the bar chord, but it's difficult to see what it is you're doing other than that..

Once again, solid work.

[mikewtp]

Yeah I've been able to pick apart most of it by ear but there are still some notes I'm missing in the sequence. I'd greatly appreciate some help/ a better view of your hands! Thanks for this amazing piece--it's a truly a great job done well.

[vicepresidentpew]

This is incredible. Makes me love the song even more than I did before. Brilliant, brilliant work.

[blehdurr]

PLEEEEASEE TAAAB ITT :o

awesome cover.

[MisterDanLorth]

such solid work man. I can tell you are feeling it while you are playing, makes it so much more enjoyable to listen to.

[faymantaray]

THIS IS FANTASTIC!

Great job mate!

[Eikinkloster]

I wonder if the first notes are supposed to point towards the American Anthem.

[holyshitmichael]

Wait, what?

[fusion1224]

I know I've already commented on this video ages ago but your playing never ceases to amaze me even 8 months later. Awesome.

[supergunmke]

outstanding

[aincorva]

you are ugly.

[jlaw666]

thanks for coming out

[willfulviolation]

its ok aincorva, we respect you for who you are, no matter which...er...side you play for...

just like we respect this guys godspeed covering skills.

[oakus]

Don't take it personally man, it's just the compression :D Anyway, you being ugly/notugly is not what's going on here, your cover made me totally speachless, great work.

[blehdurr]

define 'ugly'.

for me, it's people who call other people 'ugly' on youtube.

[TimeForJuho]

What guitar is this? Is it a semi-hollow? How did you get that sound? What reverb did you use? I'm amazed both by the sound and playing.

[willfulviolation]

this is great, especially because it unaccompanied. very nice job. i agree with iceagecomingmoney, could you please re-record with the camera facing the fretboard? im really keen to learn this

thanks

hi from new zealand!

[CerpinTaxt1983]

WOW!!!!

[nmerkner]

This is just amazing... I'd say the only bad thing about this clip is that more people haven't seen it. Only 2,000 views for this work of art is a grave injustice. However, my hat is off to you.  Simply fantastic.

[stagnant7]

I am speechless. Its such an epic song that I did not even think it could be captured so well solo on a guitar. All the nuances are there Bravo!!!

[daweon]

that;s fine that I can be sure that someone is covering THEIR music in his house ;)

[fusion1224]

Honestly, this is the best cover of a song I have ever seen or heard; flawlessly played but also with so much emotion. And I haven't even heard the original version - I'm going to go buy the album now! BTW what effects do you use?

[iceagecominmoney]

You wonderfully reproduce the hope/ dystopian nihilism that I hear in their music. Thank you . I was wondering if you could rerecord it with the fretboard facing the camera so that I can learn it if you aren't willing to tab. Please. Thanks

[iceagecominmoney]

This is absolutely incredible, you perfectly capture the hope/ dystopian nihilism that I hear in GYBE. If you can't tab it could you please rerecord it with the fretboard facing the camera so that I can learn it by watching. Please. Thanks

[gyberic]

How old are you? This is seriously amazing.

[joostwierenga]

sounds really nice! awesome!

[harryhume]

I hadnt heard this song til today and this is sick. You are teh god.

[gyberic]

Damn, awesome cover of one of the greatest songs of all time! Great job!

[FragaCampos]

Awesome. Great tribute to a great band.

Keep it up!

[TheIneffableMe]

awesome! :)

[TachiKasha]

5/5 man, good job.

I love it. Sounds great. Kinda makes me want to learn the guitar. Keep it up man!

[Jordo54321]

Besides the head I can't really tell what guitar this is, is it a telecaster? If a telecaster sounds this nice then I'm so buying one :D

[armandtanzarian]

Yes that is a tele.

[bol316]

@Jordo54321 Squier Tele

[mustafacicek]

you feel the song while playing. i think that's the reason for the nice tone and the play. can you give any link that has the tablature of this song. I couldn't find. thanx.

[armandtanzarian]

I don't have it; I made this up myself. But thanks.

[girlnamedmel]

awesome!

absolutely breath taking!

5 stars for you!

[charlieonehorse]

what tuning is this?

[armandtanzarian]

Standard. The song is in G# minor.

[clamcrabcockle]

wow.

[fvione]

Man... I need to say that it's completely incredible! congratulations!!!! I wish I could play like that

[oix]

Hey man,

just wanted to say how immense that cover is....

and also to ask what tuning you used for that...... i'm looking forward to working out the rest...

keep it man,

amazing

[krixoff]

good job guy!

[adfsghjn]

what effects are you using? that reverb sounds so natural

[armandtanzarian]

Just regular KORG digital stompbox I got for less than $150.
