[zeinth114]

May be you guys would love to know that he is grandson of our Zia Mohuddin, the pride of Pakistan

[EMIPAKISTANLTD]

@zeinth114 Actually to clarfy, his fathers mother was the sister of our very own Zia Moheyuddin.

His family is very musical and encourages the arts. His talent comes from his family and it thrived because of all their support, to quote Usman:

"None of this would be possible without Gods will, he can take it all away tomorrow. Im just grateful that my family was always there to support my ideas."

[zeinth114]

@EMIPAKISTANLTD: thanks bro for information :).

[aakhtarqayyum]

@EMIPAKISTANLTD

He is Good,

[spitfire3687]

Talent.

I'm nitpicking here but from a post-production viewpoint there's a bit too much reverb on the guitar for my taste! Maybe cut the low mids on the reverb too.

[Sajid041]

i bet those 14 people are deaf ...

[akheR666]

@IA597 Why Alyssa Milano ??

[EMIPAKISTANLTD]

@akheR666 She tweeted about Fire Fly on May 31st. Her followers on twitter therefore were able to give Fire Fly even more exposure. We are very grateful for that.

[akheR666]

@EMIPAKISTANLTD Oh, I see

[beenasarwar]

Love these talented young Pakistanis - well played, well shot, well produced. Well done.

[read1588]

As a fellow fan of the great Jimmy Page, I think this is a fantastic TRIBUTE to White Summer. Unfortunately, I can hear far too many recognised artists within your riffs to consider it anything more. None-the-less you have wonderful talent, keep it up.

[knightridrr]

exceptional control and skills :o

[TheJe5ter]

Usman man, ........ (You have left me speechless! ;D)

[TellMeAnythingg]

Love This Song!!

[TellMeAnythingg]

Love This Song!!

[johnmichaelosbourne7]

its sounds really good and all but its kinda cheap how he completely altered the tuning so that a major chord could be played with all open strings

[om3rth3gam3r]

Awesome... Loved it !!!!!

[marvilicious91]

in LOVEEE wth this guy!!! xx

AMMAAZZNNGG!

[CrazyAssLeprechaun]

[amkas4lyfe]

AMAZING!! LOVE FROM CANADA.....and we speak on the world's behalf :)

[saadtn1]

Can't believe my eyes that 13 people disliked it :O :|

[kashinine]

This is Pakistan. Naturally God given talent in every field. Sports, Music, TV. No Training Schools, no Government support. All things comes naturally. Allah has blessed Pakistan with his mercy.

Usman you rocked me Man. You have made me your permanent Fan. Keep it up, We need you.

[Steeeezey]

@kashinine natural talent??? theres no such thing as being naturally talent, i guarantee you this guy practices his ass off almost everyday....maybe he was given the ability to be good, but he isn't just naturally good at guitar

[gpll903]

@kashinine

you totally undermined Usman's hard work.. a person has the ability to pick up and be good at any thing if they work hard enough and to say that these freaking awesome string strokes were given to him in a plate without him working hard on it is a shame.. Mashallah he earned it..

[orsonmoniz]

@kashinine dont spoil it by making it all so jingoistic .............. dont undermine his talent by unnecessarily roping the country in it

[Hendurik]

@kashinine haha lol what

[Witrus1]

inspired by ANDY MCKEE, and this is kind of the same

[meankhan]

One day you will be performing on the biggest stage of the world........ People will be dying to meet you for your autograph they'll feel pride on the highest....... (Ameen)

[saj06033797]

[ToobaAli123]

This makes me incredibly homesick.... nothing but love for Pakistan and talented artists like you that are showing the world the REAL Pakistan. You deserve thousand times more than just one full auditorium.

[penta15786]

Reminds me of Jimmy Page in his early days with the Yardbirds. Fantastic.

[wiggle219219]

amaazing!

[maazihaalmustaqbil]

The next auditorium for this guitar prodigy should be the next season of Coke Studio.

[maazihaalmustaqbil]

I am in love with Usman Riaz's brilliant and improvised guitar playing. His expansive and amazing playing reminds me of Faraz Anwar's guitars on the classic Pakistani rock album "Panchi" (1999) by Mizraab.

[yasirali]

HA! LOOSHEY!

[mynameisblargh]

this is brilliant. you are brilliant. keep it up!!

[SanaDesigns]

I am not sure if I should say anything. I don't know if my words would do justice to this masterpiece. But the least I can say is "Out of this world". Superb. Anxiously looking forward to more of your music.

[Belasyed]

[abdul0333]

[honeyhib90]

USAMANNN!!!

U should go for Coke Studio now!!! :D

[maazihaalmustaqbil]

Faraz Anwar should take this 20 year old Pakistani guitar and piano prodigy under his wings and mentor him.

I am in love with his brilliant guitar playing. His expansive playing reminds me of Faraz Anwar's guitars on the classic Pakistani rock album "Panchi" (1999) by Mizraab.

Enjoyed the amazing and improvised guitar work.

[Enjay2002]

WOW. stunning.

[darkangel5968]

He's cute. ^^

[maazihaalmustaqbil]

It is a great tragedy that such a creative, diverse, talented and rich abundance of musical talent in Pakistan will sadly never get the recognition or critical acclaim by the Pakistani media.

[merlin10ish]

speechless...............

[mokami]

WORDS ARE NOT ENOUGH TO EXPLAIN THE LAST CLAPS./.......
