Excelent!!! this is a really good cover of a very good song! i'm trying to learn the solo of another one good song from x japan: sadistic desire...i hope it will sounds like yours!
Thanks, I saw that, and it was very awesome. I exaggerated a little^^. This is more of an improv, that's what I like about it, quite a bit different from the original.
Sorry, but comparing Jason Becker to Hide and Petrucci is simple ignorance. Hide is a very good player and one of the players I like most, but his playing was nowhere half as good as Petrucci, let alone Becker. And Petrucci achieved a technique comparable to Becker YEARS later than Becker. He was 19 at Cacophony, he could play Black Star when he was 16. Petrucci was learning alternative picking at that time, probably. So, stop comparing them. Hide is awesome, but Becker is out of his league.
Being creative and being able to write solos that are musically pleasant to audience is the key success for guitarists, Petrucci and Jason fail to meet those requrirements since they are too concerned about techniques. They should more concerned about their music.
i actually love some of petrucci's and becker' (if that is who you are talking about) solos. it really depends on the opinion of the listener.. and don't be fooled.. i am a huge fan of melodic playing myself.
I DISAGREE! petrucci can do some orgasmic solo like the one in "lines in the sand" or the one in "goodnight kiss" ! u should listen these solos (not those of train of thought or more actually dt songs....)and listen his solo album !it contains beautiful guitar part and awesome solos.
Petrucci's soloing is great, and as for Becker ... ummm c'mon, we never got to even see what he was truely capable of. HE WAS 19 when he played for Cachophony with Friedman
i never understood what ppl meant when they say that..."too concerned about their technique" I JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND! some guy told me that in an arcade street fighter tournament "you have no style" so why the fvck do i keep winning then??
He has his licks down, he is very clean. But most importantly, He has his own groove, or feeling. Playing fast but with groove you can express certain feelings. Hide is a great guitarist even compared to Jason Becker, since Jason can never write solos like Hide, Jason only can write solos that are in his own style. Lee is influenced by Hide yet has different groove. He can musically impress audience.
Here is what i think. I have been playing guitar pretty long time and I personally like how this guy plays. The truth is every guitarist has different style. Eddie Van Halen can not be compared to Eric Clapton. Each guitarist is bound to have their own style.
All those people who try to get him down by comparing him with technical guitarists are fool, since they do not understand what Lee is capable of and other guitarists are capable of.
if you think Petrucci is good stuff then you have a LONG WAY to go. You're just another newb.
It's all about Jordan in DT anyways. Also becker is far more skilled or any neo classical guitar player. It's funny how you think Petrucci is all that.
Depends who you're comparing to. Petrucci ain't neoclassical, and I'm well aware of the fact that he (and no one else) can't begin to compare to Jason Becker.
Anyway, isn't it even funnier how people seem to think that HIDE is all that?
Visualrocker69, you're an idoit. Hide never claimed to be the best. Akira is probably one of the best Japanese guitarist. Also Taiji was their most skilled player. in fact taiji can play the guitar better than pata and hide. It[s a known fact. In terms of technical brilliance..
In response to your first comment, you seem to be taking everything out of context. I never said hide claimed to be the best. His stupid & mindless fans do that for him! I'm only arguing that in terms of technicality, this guy is no worse than hide. Why don't you insult the silly fanboys/fangirls where are all like OMGzzzz hide is teh best!
I'm not going to get into the argument and replying to the different comments because there are too many. There are too many things that can be said about it.
I'll simply leave it with this.
Who is the one having their music covered on YouTube?
Anyone who says that hes better than hide is an idiot. Lee is very talented. Although none of us have seen hide and Pata play at their full potential. Lee is clean and fast, which is good but thats not all. what made x good was that hide and pata could synchronize. mEaning that they can hit all the notes perfectly while playing lower or higher of his partner. and pata who could switch to soloing to rythm.
you can't say hide sucks and lee is better. X (hide, and everyone) no one can play like them, WHY!? Cause they made the songs. You have yet to realise hide's greatness. Seems you haven't seen hide's solo to art of life. then you should know that hide and pata are flawless. Its not all about speed.
Blah, blah, blah. Of course I've seen Art of Life. Even hide looked like he was bored out of his mind playing it live. And being flawless isn't impressive. I'm not talking about speed, I'm talking about style, flair, emotion... all of the things that hide lacks. If you hear Pata's solo albums, you can tell that he's a pretty good guitarist. Not hide though.
WHAT NO FLAIR...HIDE. what a retard. DO YOU NOT HAVE EYES! IN THE END HIDE WAS THE ONLY ONE IN THE BAND TO KEEP HIS CRAZY STYLE. WHAT YOU THINK ITS BECAUSE HE COULDNT FIND A NEW HAIR STYLEST. HE ALWAYS DANCED AROUND THE STAGE TO PLEASE THE FANS. Thats why his performance in ART OF LIFE is so special. Hide being so calm is so against his character, thats because he was so taken be the music. I HATE PEOPLE WHO ARE SO BUSY WITH DISRESPECTING THE DEAD!
You don't understand a thing I write. I'm talking about flair on the guitar, not his flamboyant characteristics. I don't give a shit about someone's personality. I only care about real music, not some fucking MTV show. And hide's guitar playing is the most lifeless, sterile shit I've ever seen.
What YOU probably don't realize is that I'm every bit as big of a hide fan as you are. The difference is I can acknowledge him for what he is, an amazing songwriter and creative force but a merely mediocre guitarist.
Hes a good guitarist. I mean if he wasn't his songs wouldn't sound good, am i right? And I don't think you should compare hide to Lee. thats not fair. if you look at lee. ive seen him mess up. mostly all he does is improvise on songs that he covers. I'd say Funtwo is better korean guitarist.
SKILL DOESNT MAKE A MUSICIAN. ITS ALL ABOUT PERSONALITY AND HOW THE ARTIST CONNECTS TO THE FAN IF NOT THEN WHY WOULD YOU GO SEE THEM. IT ALL BOILS DOWN TO WHO WOULD YOU RATHER SEE IF YOU COULD, SOME KOREAN COVER ARTIST OR MATSUMOTO HIDETO. AND ANYONE WHO DOESNT LIKE EVERY ASPECT OF HIDE's MUSIC PERSONA IS NOT A TRUE HIDE FAN SO STOP POSING.
What argument did I lose? I'm saying one thing and you're saying another. There's no objective truth to what makes a good gutiarist, it's all a matter of taste. So how can I win or lose an argument that's based entirely on opinion? You're just being a little baby because I don't agree with you.
Dude are you retarded? An argument is a statement or group of statements offered in support of another statement. So when you cant say anything else to support your original premise you lose the argument. Your right it is a matter of taste and i was just debating my opinion. But dont take it so hard its all in the spirit of music.
Who's taking it hard? I'm not the one yelling, typing in all caps, and calling people "retarded". You're the only one who ends up fitting that description.
And I didn't NEED to say anything else to support my claim. hide ISN'T a good guitarist in my opinion because he can't even compare to guitarists who are ACTUALLY good. THE END.
Yeahhh, that makes no sense. That whole line of thought is a logical fallacy. The fact that I can't play it as fluently as hide or Lee Kyung Won doesn't indicate that I don't have the ability or experience to perceive a difference in skill between two guitarists. In fact, the only thing that it DOES indicate is that I haven't practiced it enough. You can watch tons of people on youtube playing this. IT'S NOT THAT HARD. Try playing John Petrucci or Paul Gilbert stuff... that IS.
Well, this isn't intended to be the hardest solo in the whole world to play either.
This is about music, and this is far more musically than Petrucci will ever be. it's not zomg-technical-shredding, if you want that, go to those kinda videos and stop dissing true music. retard
Lawl. But we're not talking about the quality of music, we're talking about technical skill alone. And when people say that hide qualifies as a good guitarist in THAT respect alone, I can't help but laugh.
As for musical quality... apart from the fact that the quesion is a highly subjective one, I find that Silent Jealousy sounds mechanical, sterile, and lifeless. As is the case with all of X's solos in my opinion. hide's guitar solo in Eyes Love You has more substance BY FAR.
And about Petrucci? You obviously don't know him if you think he's not musical.
You're stillll not getting the whole subjectivity thing. I guess people like you are only capable of thinking in absolutes. Regardless, John Petrucci's melodic phrasing and sense of dynamics is by far superior to hide's. His solos have actual substance... he is speaking through his instrument.
... Whereas hide is just playing (in this case) something that sounds contrived at best. This solo sounds very artificial and mechanical sounding, almost as if the notes are being forced into the framework of the song's melodic construction. Also, hide's picking technique is pretty damn... awkward.
Petrucci is technical yes, but technical crap. if he's such a god, why doesn't he make good music? his stuff is pretty boring, unique yes. but so is lots of stuff.
instead of being such a petrucci fanb0i you can learn to understand other kinds of music.
This solo might not be the best example, but you said "all x's solos". Endless Rain? Alive? have you even heard all the songs?
Dude... I've been an X/hide fan for nearly 9 years now. Believe me, it's not that interesting when you can hear every note before its played in the song.
I only got into Petrucci/DT early last winter. And what's "boring" or "technical" to your ears might breathe life and beauty into mine.
Endless Rain is bleh, ok. I'm kinda biased against what Yoshiki writes, so... Yeah. hide's music sounds much more natural and pleasing to me. The Eyes Love You solo is amazing, in my book.
Well, if you're a fan as you say, how come you don't understand the music fully? ^^
difficulty does not make a difference in how good it is, and Petrucci (amongst others, like Batio and so) just proves that. sure it's difficult, but good? neh.
I haven't got my hands on the DVD's yet unfortunately though
I don't like Petrucci for his instrumental skill alone. He has a lot more going for him than that, like dynamic feel (differentiating between hard and soft picking) and melodic control/note selection, etc. If you think I go for the typical mindless droning over a cacophonous array of notes also known as shredding, you're wrong man ;p
Well definately check em out. I've only seen disc 1 of Aoi Yoru so far, but I can already tell that it is aMAZING. The best thing is the period. It's right there in between the Jealousy/Art of life period and juuuust beginning to move into the Dahlia era. Except X wasn't as poppy/commercial yet, so the songs that they DO play from the Dahlia era have a much more raw & powerful feel to them. BETTER, in fact, than they ended up being on Dahlia and respective singles.
Anyway, I must be getting into like the 50th post of arguing about this bs ;p Now THIS is what I call boring. And tedious, as I AM an X fan, not just a hypercritical person.
So, have you checked out their new DVD's? What was your impression (if you did) ?
YOU CAN"T GET TO HIDE's SPOT! HES A LEGEND! ONE WHO WILL BE REMEMEBRED! YOU KNOW HOW HARD SO MANY PEOPLE TRIED! THEY DROP OUTTA SCJOOL AND SHIT! AND IF LEE ISN"T A GOOD GUITARIST THEN STOP SAYING HES BETTER THAN HIDE! CAUSE HES NOTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Haha, he's better than hide. You're just a dumbass who thinks he's the best guitar in the worrrrrrrrrld. Well GUESS WHAT xD Every 5th guitarist is better than hide.
And dammmmn, you can't even make the distinction between an artist and a guitarist. hide's so much more than a mere guitarist.
He plays the notes sweeter, makes less misses and uses a very effective fingering technique, meaning he doesn't have to rush to make notes. Something which hide was good at, making it look easy - but this guy doesnt just do that - he does it right too.
I hope you do know that Yoshiki of X-Japan made the solos, not hide and Pata. None of us have seen those two play to their full potential. hide and Pata have a lot more experience then Lee, although Lee is good, but he mostly inprovises. DId you realise the scale had totaly changed when Lee hadn't played the solo? hide's scale is amazing
His technique is better, in that aspect he is a far better player. hide was not a great guitarist, he was good at what he did, and thats all that counts - but this guy is better at it. And hide and pata played their best under Yoshiki, their solo works were less technical.
he may be a better guitar player than hide or Pata,but it's too clinical,no emotions whatsover in his playing...and that was a big part in the greatness of X's songs,the feeling between hide and Pata. but yeah,his technique(how to spell that,I'm Dutch...:) is great nonetheless.
uh... hide's solo has absolutly no feeling man not so much pata but he doesn't have much feeling either -_-... they're just good song writers and good melody makers
x] yeah i've noticed that alot of korean players have no emotion playing it...but great technique [you spelled it right]
i'm not being racist/stereotypical or anything..i just notice this..i mean..look at funtwo..he may play better then jerry c..but jerry c brought it down. funtwo only had a better amp [i'm guessing]
lee kyung won. korean. covers anime songs, some x japan , sex machineguns and video game shit. insane. likes long walks on park. also likes to sew sweaters.
Its only fitting that such an awesome player plays such an awesome guitar.

But dont take it so hard its all in the spirit of music.

Who's taking it hard? I'm not the one yelling, typing in all caps, and calling people "retarded". You're the only one who ends up fitting that description.
And I didn't NEED to say anything else to support my claim. hide ISN'T a good guitarist in my opinion because he can't even compare to guitarists who are ACTUALLY good. THE END.

Yeahhh, that makes no sense. That whole line of thought is a logical fallacy. The fact that I can't play it as fluently as hide or Lee Kyung Won doesn't indicate that I don't have the ability or experience to perceive a difference in skill between two guitarists. In fact, the only thing that it DOES indicate is that I haven't practiced it enough. You can watch tons of people on youtube playing this. IT'S NOT THAT HARD. Try playing John Petrucci or Paul Gilbert stuff... that IS.
visualrocker69 4 years ago
Well, this isn't intended to be the hardest solo in the whole world to play either.
This is about music, and this is far more musically than Petrucci will ever be. it's not zomg-technical-shredding, if you want that, go to those kinda videos and stop dissing true music. retard
Silenzius 4 years ago
Lawl. But we're not talking about the quality of music, we're talking about technical skill alone. And when people say that hide qualifies as a good guitarist in THAT respect alone, I can't help but laugh.
visualrocker69 4 years ago
As for musical quality... apart from the fact that the quesion is a highly subjective one, I find that Silent Jealousy sounds mechanical, sterile, and lifeless. As is the case with all of X's solos in my opinion. hide's guitar solo in Eyes Love You has more substance BY FAR.
And about Petrucci? You obviously don't know him if you think he's not musical.
visualrocker69 4 years ago
"I find that Silent Jealousy sounds mechanical, sterile, and lifeless. As is the case with all of X's solos in my opinion. "
hah, you do truly not understand music then. calling X mechanical, sterile and lifeless and worshipping petrucci? haha
Silenzius 4 years ago
You're stillll not getting the whole subjectivity thing. I guess people like you are only capable of thinking in absolutes. Regardless, John Petrucci's melodic phrasing and sense of dynamics is by far superior to hide's. His solos have actual substance... he is speaking through his instrument.
visualrocker69 4 years ago
... Whereas hide is just playing (in this case) something that sounds contrived at best. This solo sounds very artificial and mechanical sounding, almost as if the notes are being forced into the framework of the song's melodic construction. Also, hide's picking technique is pretty damn... awkward.
visualrocker69 4 years ago
Petrucci is technical yes, but technical crap. if he's such a god, why doesn't he make good music? his stuff is pretty boring, unique yes. but so is lots of stuff.
instead of being such a petrucci fanb0i you can learn to understand other kinds of music.
This solo might not be the best example, but you said "all x's solos". Endless Rain? Alive? have you even heard all the songs?
Silenzius 4 years ago
Dude... I've been an X/hide fan for nearly 9 years now. Believe me, it's not that interesting when you can hear every note before its played in the song.
I only got into Petrucci/DT early last winter. And what's "boring" or "technical" to your ears might breathe life and beauty into mine.
Endless Rain is bleh, ok. I'm kinda biased against what Yoshiki writes, so... Yeah. hide's music sounds much more natural and pleasing to me. The Eyes Love You solo is amazing, in my book.
visualrocker69 4 years ago
Well, if you're a fan as you say, how come you don't understand the music fully? ^^
difficulty does not make a difference in how good it is, and Petrucci (amongst others, like Batio and so) just proves that. sure it's difficult, but good? neh.
I haven't got my hands on the DVD's yet unfortunately though
Silenzius 4 years ago
I don't like Petrucci for his instrumental skill alone. He has a lot more going for him than that, like dynamic feel (differentiating between hard and soft picking) and melodic control/note selection, etc. If you think I go for the typical mindless droning over a cacophonous array of notes also known as shredding, you're wrong man ;p
visualrocker69 4 years ago
Well definately check em out. I've only seen disc 1 of Aoi Yoru so far, but I can already tell that it is aMAZING. The best thing is the period. It's right there in between the Jealousy/Art of life period and juuuust beginning to move into the Dahlia era. Except X wasn't as poppy/commercial yet, so the songs that they DO play from the Dahlia era have a much more raw & powerful feel to them. BETTER, in fact, than they ended up being on Dahlia and respective singles.
visualrocker69 4 years ago
The only drawback I see to these is that they feature Heath... but thats just from my perspective, as I happen to be a Taiji fanboy~ :D
visualrocker69 4 years ago
Anyway, I must be getting into like the 50th post of arguing about this bs ;p Now THIS is what I call boring. And tedious, as I AM an X fan, not just a hypercritical person.
So, have you checked out their new DVD's? What was your impression (if you did) ?

Haha, he's better than hide. You're just a dumbass who thinks he's the best guitar in the worrrrrrrrrld. Well GUESS WHAT xD Every 5th guitarist is better than hide.
And dammmmn, you can't even make the distinction between an artist and a guitarist. hide's so much more than a mere guitarist.

hide doesnt miss any notes on the recording
shinderukage 4 years ago
He plays the notes sweeter, makes less misses and uses a very effective fingering technique, meaning he doesn't have to rush to make notes. Something which hide was good at, making it look easy - but this guy doesnt just do that - he does it right too.

I hope you do know that Yoshiki of X-Japan made the solos, not hide and Pata. None of us have seen those two play to their full potential. hide and Pata have a lot more experience then Lee, although Lee is good, but he mostly inprovises. DId you realise the scale had totaly changed when Lee hadn't played the solo? hide's scale is amazing

Im sorry hes not better than hide
shinderukage 4 years ago
His technique is better, in that aspect he is a far better player. hide was not a great guitarist, he was good at what he did, and thats all that counts - but this guy is better at it. And hide and pata played their best under Yoshiki, their solo works were less technical.
Jinecou 4 years ago
Which may I add, is a reflection on their musicianship, influences and craft - and a credit to Yoshiki as a writer.

VASSLINE 4 years ago
he may be a better guitar player than hide or Pata,but it's too clinical,no emotions whatsover in his playing...and that was a big part in the greatness of X's songs,the feeling between hide and Pata. but yeah,his technique(how to spell that,I'm Dutch...:) is great nonetheless.
