Medieval Song On Electric Guitar ( Fredric Mesnier Cover )

[RuroiniStenchin]

Good job dude, also I think it;s very interesting hearing medieval/renaissance music played on electric guitar,

Ritchie Blackmore does some amazing things with his strat in Blackmores Night

[racistbmxjake]

@nadmder not bad dude pretty good better then me you got the tabs? or you play by ear?

[racistbmxjake]

@thegilmer dude stop complaining about how he mad emistakes if its so fucken easy lets see you do a version all i see on your shit is videos of world of warcraft time to grow up son

[dave58ification]

good job:) electric and all. Practice and you will be very good.As far as posting with imperfections I think it gives others more incentive by showing that it can be done it just doesn't come in one run through.

[beefcake40001]

Did you learn this by simply watching his video? if so then damn

[puuuuuuch]

A bit more practise, mate :> The tempo's off most of the time. Goodluck though!

[heathermariemayhem]

work on it... youre good.. you just have to practice your sense of timing ALOT.. and learn the right chords, you played a bunch of em wrong...

[hansonbravo]

u need practice, this vid is a waste of time for the audience

[steelleel]

can only play the 1st part of it.

[lexyzimus]

quite good actually, the song is hard to play, i played it at least 100 times and i am still half the speed you are ... na well, maybe i need a professional teacher ^^

[TheGilmer]

You need to practice this more before you post a video of you playing it.

I suggest taking this down for the time being, practice until it's legible, and repost it for us to enjoy when you can play it properly. I look forward to seeing a better version of you playing this, friend.

Best of luck. Cheers.

@TheGilmer its a challenging song and I am a fairly new player. I did make some mistakes here and there, which is understandable, but it doesn't mean that I should take it down. Is there anything specific you suggest I improve ?

[sharrer2]

@NadMDer Don't listen to @TheGilmer he probably doesn't even play guitar. It's an extremely hard song to learn. You should be proud that you can play it. And that you had enough dedication to learn it all the way through. I sure enough didn't.

[TheGilmer]

@sharrer2 Read the reply to him.

[TheGilmer]

@sharrer2 Actually, guitar playing is my entire life. That's why I offer advice to others. I practice 8-10 hours each and every day. Here isn't a place to talk about me though, nobody cares to hear about me on another dude's video, I'm trying to tell the guy that he needs to learn the song before he posts a video about it.

[TheGilmer]

@NadMDer You can barely tell which part of the song you're on when you're playing it. I'm not flaming you, I'm just saying you need to learn the song and be able to play it before trying to do a video on it.

The timing near the end of the opening harmonic section is off/rushed. You keep stopping at chord changes throughout.  It's not a hard piece if you just take it slow and spend a few days learning it. It's actually pretty simple to learn. Just learn it. It's illegible.

[1Messiah4All]

@NadMDer You just need some more practice... Maybe change your posture... But if you are a beginning player, very nice job. Maybe practice at a slower tempo and try to speed up while you feel more and more confident. Sometimes it's helpfull to look at the placement of your thumb on your fretting hand.

I hope it was helpfull.

cheerios

[uestu846]

@NadMDer NO dont take it down....so we can see how you improve once you post next one then take it down.... dont listen to gilmer

[TheGilmer]

@uestu846 I actually didn't think about that; that would be a much better idea so we could see everything that improved. ^_^

[eismccc]

@NadMDer He's just bustin your balls man; it takes a pair to post a video like this for the whole world to see. You want to know a good way to improve, just keep listening to his song, listen to yours, fix the changes... I play it with different timing in certain parts because I think it sounds better for me. Anyway, good job and good luck!

[nineveh420]

@NadMDer it's a good start, I would recommend you polish it with a metronome, many subtle time issues. The issue the guy had before with his comment about you taking it down I believe is when you cover something as fantastic as Mr. Mesnier it better be SOLID. you could cover zepplin all day and no one would care.... ;)

[pierkov]

@TheGilmer , give him some feedback instead, if you are such a guitar guru. If you tell him to take it down, he will most likely not get any better.

[TheGilmer]

@pierkov Read the reply to him.

[xx211pat211xx]

@TheGilmer Shut the fuck up.

[TheGilmer]

@xx211pat211xx I had no hateful intent with this comment. I was just suggesting that he try again once he can get it under his fingers. Sorry to have upset you.

[X3LAIAS]

@TheGilmer u dont like it, u dont watch it. Simple as dat! =)

[TheGilmer]

@X3LAIAS I love the song, I was just telling the guy he needed to practice it more.

I don't watch this video, by the way. However, I wish he would post a video of him playing it now; I'd love to see how he has improved. ^_^

[JakJoProduction]

@TheGilmer I think it's a good think that one with a lack of experience has the guts to post a video. It actually gives the chance to get positive feedback and tips. As he said in the description, he attempted to do it. He's clearly younger then the composer of this song so I would understand that he has an hard time playing such a complex song, though age and talent doesn't matter when the will is present. I bet he worked hard to learn it and I doub't he ever will give up.

[TheGilmer]

@JakJoProduction I agree with you, however, I'm disappointed that he hasn't put up a new one of him playing it. I'd really like to see how he's improved upon it!

[NadMDer]

@TheGilmer I want to, but i have been extremely busy :( . I do appreciate all the input from everyone though.

[shadowrath4]

agreed - sounds great. the harmonics in the intro sounds terrific

sure a few dead notes here and there but nothing no one can easily look past

especially since it was on an electric
