Michael Angelo Batio - No Boundaries

[85skateboarding]

left handed yeah!!!!

[TheYaranian]

Creative - that is what i like you GOOD JOB !

[NevermindXY]

Well, to anyone whos searching for the reason for this stupid EVH argument: I've removed my stupid comment BECAUSE I got so many fucking stupid comments. ERUPTION IS EASY!!! I KNOW. THAT COMMENT IS ABOUT TWO YEARS OLD. WAS TWO YEARS OLD... I COULD NOT PLAY GUITAR IN THESE DAYS. IGNORE THIS SHIT, I DID A LOT OF PRACTISING, NEARLY MY WHOLE FUCKING FREETIME AND IM GOING TO STUDY GUITAR IN ABOUT 1 BLOODY YEAR. THIS ERUPTION BULLSHIT GOES ON MY FUCKING NERVES!!!!!!!!!

[guillotinedeath]

how long did it take you to finish this?

[TheDMM]

Good work keep working on it :)

but still Michael Angelo Batio do it better

[felphero]

sloppy as hell 

[Mendel1788]

@felphero Jup

[RADIOACTIVEBUNY]

@felphero lol well I aspire to be that good one day.

[THESYSTEMINCOMMAND]

dude good job and im lefthanded to was that randy hard to find

[MrLysy000]

pierdolony manikut

[TheDarkeb]

ah, bella cover, però la difficoltà cosi è notevolmente scalata... complimenti lo stesso ^^

[venom1stas]

wow dude, can you tell me how you learned to play?

[Cryptocracyz101]

really good man...

[X09FHA]

horrible sounding.

[agrmon7]

that is really good. Don't listen to what others have to say. you did your best. Keep working at it.

[batusai005]

AAAAA SUU MADRE

tas pro

[fedfyr]

That was great playing, dude. Not all sweeps were 100 % clear, but most of them as far as I can hear, and fuck a hard song :) very nice

[ImperialArmour]

great effort and commendable results dude, but don't throw in your own stuff in it and call it a cover.

[WEISsGEBeter]

Cool cover but...doesn't sound like No Boundries. Your tuning may be a little low and the sound is kinda muffled compared to MAB's playing.

Not really No Boundries but props for picking such an ambitious song.

[BLuEsHayZee]

what the eff you can't call it cover and throw several of your own moves in there. Screw it man, you have skill, but this not COMPLETELY the speed kills batio.

[BloodRelic101]

its really not like no boundries but i like this version almost better lol :P sound cover mate!

[kgtbest]

great stuff man

[leonardofranco2]

its extreme!, nice

[twhylighth8er]

amazing

[chil0man]

the 1st time i seethis song with a lefthanded

amazing cover!

[AreMyFingersGone]

You do realize his setting on his Webcam may be on mirror image, there-fore making the image look left handed.

[xxsl1pkn07xx]

no, you can still read his shirt, if it was on mirror, his shirt would be read backwards

[AreMyFingersGone]

true True..

[immarcus]

the writing on his shirt is the right way around

[dontdissheavymetal]

Yes but you can clearly read As I Lay Dying on his shirt so it's not mirrored

[Vectrox666]

Sweeping parts are sick !!

[Steve128967]

your guitar sounds great.

[filthface7]

outstanding

[GibsonRock4All]

pretty dang nice!

haha

played like a true guitarist

[infiniteloop99]

amazing

I noticed you use your left hand to pick the strings, are you left handed or do you just play NB like that

[FrttMs]

What does it look like? His guitar is left handed too, so what's the point in asking?

[jerwinrocks]

it will take years of masturbating to make that cover... awesome

[DANCH1D]

F*ck its amazing !

[danielsick13]

very awesome  crazy man

[zeal0us]

OMFG 3:30 till end... that made my day, sounds like something Petrucci might do while working this progression with a smile on his face. Great job :P

[Charlymaumushi]

Thats good. Rock on. left handed.

[Mendel1788]

I would like to see a video of that :)

[mcpeepants1821]

wtf Eruption is as hard as this?

fucking 13 year old play that for there school talent show

[dudeiloveeggs]

bahah. its true. im 14 and played it at my school talent show. :P

[DragonForcebest]

@NevermindXY Eruption is 100.000 times easier

[NevermindXY]

@DragonForcebest Jap. Currently Im playing for two and a half years now and would not have any problems with playing this song. Im playing necrophagist (Stabwound) and Yngwie Malmsteen (Blitzkrieg). So - My playing still develops. And this guitarist here - I dont know how long and well hes playing the guitar now - in this video he is very weak. Plays rough, out of the beat and everything else but flawless. And Van halen is kinda shitten guitarist. Just to defend myself...

[KevinFuxurMOM1993]

@NevermindXY eruption is cake compared to this song eruption isnt even that hard to begin with.EVH is no where as good as MAB, this kid played it damn good for not playing it for a year

[SirCrunchSpelow]

wOw!

amazing!

[stich45683]

chidos arreglos con un poco mas de practica creo que se oiria mucho mejor de lo que ya se escucha

[Orbit91]

Sounds like a different song to me, it's actually sounds better than the original in some places, IMO.

[RZTroiano]

very awesome :)

way better than some shit i could pull

[xPLDxPunisher]

lol. thats really funny. you should do stand up.

[Pigioto1]

nice cover dood

how did you build up your speed? or like what did you practice?

[xdomaraqx]

few make an attempt

very few make a good attempt(this video)

but no one will ever play no boundaries perfect like the mighty god MAB

[Mendel1788]

Check out Rock Discipline from Petrucci.

[drook666]

alot of mistakes but very nice attempt

[xUnKnOwNOnEx]

whats the secret behind playing very fast and sweeping really well?

[wraww]

practice :P

[ukeespencer]

alot of practice and determination

[virusdetection]

palm muting when u first start and start out slow then slowly get faster(i would recommend a metronome for this) then when u got the speed stop palm muting the notes and work on cleaning it up and u should be good

[Mendel1788]

Practicing and watching Melodic Control from Friedman

[srunkenhead80]

It's all in the percision of your technique and keeping it quiet(no harmoics in ur sweeps, no hitting the other strings when you play, that kinda thing).

[mustaine8282]

good guitars

try this:

Dean VMNT

Jackson KING V2

Washburne. all the usa models

Carven all the carven guitars

[acortez48]

dude, the KV1 is better than the KV2

[Nejizero666]

watch some of MAB's vids, he does some pretty cool instructional vids. Rusty Cooley also has alot of good demo vids.

[cobraopts7]

@xUnKnOwNOnEx hand and pick control must have good hand and eye coordination

[yoghurtfeen]

impressive job! but it must be difficult to sit on a chair with a flying-v :O

[BEKrustie]

its actually more comfortable than standing up with it surprisingly i have the KKV and its massive so much nicer to sit with it classical style.

[haverhilldogblue]

out of intrest whats the guage on the guitar i fort an 8 would be perfect but the notes and sweeps where abit sloppy so i went up to 9 and i was fine lol u do trem on an 8g i snaps within a day aswell cool vid x

[lesbianseegullmaster]

id go for 10's myself

[fernandoodias]

ridiculous

[guitarchick150]

extreamly impressive. to do a solo but a michael angelo solo tats like godly

[jtilicki]

Hey, a fellow lefty guitar player!! You are hands down the best lefty I've seen on YouTube. Keep rocking man!!!

[Koujinkamu]

At first I thought he did the sweeping wrong, but it's just too fast for my eyes... ^^

[AxMIAx7xMIAxX]

bits of it are wrong, but like he said he hasn't played it for ages.

[piemunch83]

u must have finger muscles big enough to lift trucks ^.^

[muppanz]

Lift trucks? What does that mean? ^^

[xXllPARDOWllXx]

man u r really good u have taalent for this

[Hammetallica92]

nice job dude!

[judomouse]

No shit Sherlock

[cerpeintaxt123]

does anyone know what tuning this song is in

[drakonimetal]

Up 1/2 step

[ShredmastaMike]

i thought it was down one... ^^' u sure, cuz ive done the randy tribute on my guitar in standard, and i go 1/2 down, and it sounds like it, although, I'm not sure if he changes the tuning for most of his songs, im really clueless on that

[XenosRG]

Wow dude how long have u been playing?

[sirchristophofeden]

Hey is not that bad... not bad at all actually. Practice a little more and you will get it. Bravo man!

[Nragemachine]

Much better than I could do, very impressive.

[gnrwroks]

nice !!!

[NagualElias]

sweet. i remember you from the MAB forum. i was known as ranma187 in those days.

[voodooorc]

congratulations, i like ur version xD

[SDRockman]

So Michaels DVD must be really good for learning how to play fast? Only if you want to of course, I dont believe in all this "best guitarist" nonsense. I would always be listening to something and I would really love to able to play it, but I wouldn't be able to because it's just too fast. So these DVDs must be good for that. Good playing man, you have obviously put your work in!

[KARN1V4L]

what amp do you use?

[Metalheadddddd]

Pretty cool even if you didn't played some parts of the song.Which EMG are they?

[Mendel1788]

Emg 81 bridge, EMG 85 neck.

[magigaman]

he played metallica - unforgiven solo intro on 1:57

[magigaman]

sorry 2:08

[Mendel1788]

Yeah, i loved that lick back then.

I was waiting for someone to post that.

[Mendel1788]

@ Everyone: There is no such thing as the best guitarist ever.

Who can compare Govan with Kirk Hammet ? Who can compare batio with Meola ?

Instead of posting your best guitar ever and ranting go practice your improvisation skills !

Check out Guthrie Govan.

[giacom9222]

I'll gave you a solution.who compare this idiot "MAB" and his casual solos with alexi lahio?

[Metaleho]

it's a realy hard songand yeah some bits don't quite sound right but YOU ARE FUCKING GOOOOD!!!

[giacom9222]

you play with the right hand?"MAB" the best suckers?man,play real guitar not this shit music

[KennethXEcker]

its called being lefty

and batio is most definately one of the greatest guitarists to ever live so STFU

[CarlJohnson3]

He is one of the greatest shredders easily, but I wouldn't say one of the greatest guitarists overall.

[00bav123]

Might've been just me, but some bits don't quite sound right, but great playing though.

[pookiking]

u got a nice future....

[egyptiscool]

He's a lefty! Kill him! Ha, just kidding, good job.

[Mendel1788]

+1!

Kudos :D

[freeatlast1963]

this was really good

[intercore69]

Killswitch Esp kicked your ass

[WarriorOfLiberty]

excelent! great!

[DarkRising12]

wow hij had gelijk je kunt het idd echt goed! check mijn MAB moves demonstration, misschien kun je mij tips geven. Ik speel nu drie jaar en het bevalt me prima dat hele gitaar speel wereldje. hehe netjes zware skillz heb je

peace

[rockmaster0]

You rock... nice cover and you did some modification of the piece.... nice!!!

[sinisterhanded94]

great cover, great shirt. and it's awesome to see someone play this song left handed. how long did it take you to learn this?

[be4realyo]

Yeah you made some mistakes but fuck dude, not too many people can even come close to a micheal batio cover. Good job.

[killforleet]

You have a very good tone for this song, my friend.

[COBHatecrewCOB]

really good playing on this fuckin' song ! left hands rules !!

[BlonderBube18]

I play left hand to :) left hand the best ;)

[hxcmexi]

Nicely done. you made it your own.

[amichaelmichael]

so wierd watching someone playing left handed!

[pililicus]

hey man making mistakes or not ur great!!it was like another version of nb keep playing

[DegaGray]

wow at 50ish it felt like i was watching a machine!!!! NICELY DONE i only dream of playing even this close hahah did you get tabs for this? if so cna you post them? if not that is saying even more toward your skill :) also love your shirt as i lay dying ftw and again very nice

[YunaHiwitari]

MAB is nearly inhuman but I think you did great. Don't listen to idiots throwing bonehead comments at you. You're a fantastic guitarist. Keep up the great work.

[Mendel1788]

Thank you so much YUNA :)!!

[YunaHiwitari]

You're most welcome. =]

TEACH ME GUITAR?! Lol I wish!

[ratamusical]

bien,,bien hay guachin

[Pefifos]

you got a pretty powerful sound there man!

[xicekalibra]

this guy has a good imagination :) Nice

[wndead]

sure u r fast, but your feeling sucks

quite trashy...

[170593170593]

Both MAB and Buckethead are awesome, music isn't a competition so theres no point comparing them, just enjoy them both for what they are.

[Mendel1788]

MAB and Buckethead are both great guitar players. You can't compare them even they play both shred. I like this song because back in the days it inspired me to practice my technique.

Since allot of you guys are young and want to prove yourself (i did to, no worry) i recommend you guys different artists.

Check out BB King, or Anders his solo on Abymal ( the haunted ).

Remember: The lesser the notes, the harder it's to play.

Everyone can play 34234 nps.

Fewer can play whith emotion and feel.

[spy235]

your soooooooooooo goooooooooood keep it up ;p

[cgeek2709]

if mab and buckethead had a guitar battle who would win

[KUBLUH]

buckethead is so much better there is no comparison you dumb fuck, listen to more than one of his songs

[me5150003]

bull shit batio would kill him at guitar

[decimator543]

Batio owns at speed.

Buckethead owns at soul.

Therefore. A tie is formed.

[me5150003]

Buckethead dont got no soul he wears a mask and hes never into the music

[yondaime597]

wtf is the matter with you? have you ever heard of his music? listen to electric tears, or whitewash or big sur moon. you'll think twice dude.

[me5150003]

alright i will

[vladimir425]

your not entirely right buckethead just stands there

[austinsguitarhero]

dude i love this.

the rethom part at 2:16 was awsome.

awsomeeeee.ivin better than the real one.

[smellyninja123]

This is to rkonmango.

Michael Angelo Batio IS better than buckethead and yngwie.

Theres a reason why all guitar magazines consider MAB the best shredder of all time.

Well damn he has his own recording company does yngwie or buckethead?

No i dont think so.

He has his own instruction dvds on shredding that is the best seller in the world.

He's very creative too.

Made the double guitar.

I could go on and on but before you judge look at his speed kills and tell me that he isnt better

[kingrocker2468]

micheal angelo is one of the best. i love is double guitar i could give anything for the power o use tha anyway i am not fit to hold that giutar

[toadman099]

WOO YA KICK ASS, wether or not yngwie, or buckethead own u on guitar, u gots guitar skill to bro. Oh um hey thts a lefty jackson, how much did it cost, cuz I need one, lol

[redbuffalo15]

no buckethead and yngwie do not "own" him. skillwise michael angelo batio is by far the best guitarist there is. buckethead might be a better composer but in no way shape or form is he a better player. nor is malmsteen.

[AngusKrueger]

i agree, but i think if jason becker did not get ALS, he was the best guitarist

and your cover is good, but no one can play this song better than MAB, in my opinion

[rkonmango]

Hes good, but i don't see how they can say he beats yngwie or buckethead, they own him

[branblackmore15]

im left handed too  nice job

[gam3rman]

I am as well

[hipgab]

no es muy bueno, ademas que improviso cosas que nada qu ver con el video verdardero

ademas no hizo la mejor parte de tocar arriba y abajo en el 1:55

[skywind1987]

Man, you've got style, and talent too. And that isn't the think that anyone gets in their life.

[box1234567891011]

amazing :]

[chooch187]

pretty good. sounds liek you kinda threw your own twist in on it.

[Mendel1788]

i am left handed so my right hand is on the fretboard :)

[walrus98]

did you mean you played this song after only a year and a half of playing guitar?

i think its amazing btw, even just to have a crack at it deserves praise =]

[sinnernthefirst]

no he means that it was 1,5 years since he last played it

[lowedt]

not that bad

[zzrock7]

waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaaaw!

[lokutub]

that's kool dude... but u must try to challenge with me sumtimes... watch my videos soon...............

[ninjaman1777]

dude playing left handed is so hard man u rock :)

[penguin3693]

Damn due your fucking good.

And that is an awesome guitar and left handed too.

Very Nice

[GunZnRifles]

Dude, you have amazing talent!

keep going!

[onlyme14]

where did you get that awsome guitar?!

I am lefthand to

[666wrathchild]

i have same guitar too

but right handed

[mcknbrd]

This must be fckng hard to play ?

[turkjr118]

he didnt skip anything, its an alternate take on the song

[AndreaaSlipknot1]

im left handedd 2!!!

[metallicametalhead]

same here

[khelmet]

nice job. what kind of amp setup are you using?

[airjordan040302]

hey pdmdh i'd like to see you play that you faggot

[JACKSONAXER]

Nice Job Nice Axe Nice Nice Nice:p

[superkittyra]

he's left handed, cool

[SiegHeilToSatan]

Well done, but As I Lay Dying sucks.

[gameoverx2]

dude sick XD

[mywomansfromtokyo]

I doubt MAB played that well at your age.

[soloboy1991]

yeah:D

[HanaKimiCali]

that a great sounding guitar

[xXxvirusmakerxXx]

amazing just one thing i dont like,either you learned this song in a lower tune or your guitar is tunes down

[shamanlama]

man you rock good how long are you playing now ??? really good  i love it respect

[incredi555]

work on your fret hand; you shouldn't have your thumb that far over the guitar neck and try not to lift your fingers so far off the neck, but other than that, good job.

[drmoshie]

he's fine, different people have different styles.

[pbmdh]

you made an amazing song sound like shit, thanks
