[MajorFenix]

If applicable, how would you compare a sitar to a guitar?...

[AExodus7]

Keep it up, brother! Sounds great.

[ChilledLemons]

At least you're sitar only whips gently. Mine is a freaking slave driver!

[8000cheese]

and where does one buy a sitar

[entropy78]

@8000cheese In Chicago area I bought one at Sitar Emporium - just google it.

[sundayseclipse]

The sitar sounds really good and ominious even when the note are simplistic

[earforia]

@sundayseclipse There are only 12 notes. Simple on any instrument.

[Rawklorrd]

It is spelled Weeps.

[calebbrow]

hahaha thats hilarious, while my guitar gently whips

[reshmiya]

how much does on cost.

[Metallica1111beatles]

GO FUCK YOURSELF

[bigdawgandrewm]

while i dont agree, i dont like them at all

[pokemaniac121]

I like The Beatles. I REALLY admire them because George Harrison broadened the other Beatle's "musical knowledge" by learning to play the Sitar......And hey, it sounds wikid sweet!

[NilsSG]

i love sitars and their sounds but this guy is just

NOT GOOD

[Zimplony]

Wow, good stuff there don't listen to people that cant listen to anything but crappy pop!

[darthjack11]

I agree. all there is in the world. is techno, remix this remix that. press a button on a keyboard and u got ur drum beat there

[anko8aug]

hahaha nice title man

[sitarsandy]

Horrible!

[Sergio0Oo]

beautiful instrument

[MeHiLo1]

HA HA HA !!!!!

He`s giving his BEST!!!

LOL

[IL0vEpIzZa4]

dude it sounds nothin like my guitar gently weeps.  U suck

[KutaniCrane]

you did not get it.

[WHITExxFORKxx]

Awesome hat and sitar dude

[RanoNL]

Hahaha :D Nice song mate!

[Ahsfb61]

This guy is a douchebag

[smstr18]

it's ok but it doesnt sound like my guitar gently weeps

[pompom2001]

its because its not a bloody guitar. Hindustani music is different to western.

[grimmviper]

man i would love to see a sitar(s) replace the guitar(s) in a heavier band like death metal or something of the sort. that would just be amazing. i cant wait until i am finished building my sitar

[pompom2001]

its gonna take a lot of time for that to happen. I might even start a fusion band. LOL.

Most people on youtube are too shallow to think there are different types of music other than trashy pop.

[grimmviper]

i cant wait to try that out. but all i really have is the body that im going to use. but i believe anythings possible and if it were done right it would sound intence. then again i havent really had the chance to play the sitar but i cant wait

[days2daze]

FUCKING LAY OFF YOU TWELVE YEAR OLDS! FUCKING GUYS PLAYING A SITAR DONT SHIT OVER IT ITS PRETTY GOOD IF YOU ASK ME...

i'v never touched a sitar so i wouldn't know but either have you!

[AXmichigan]

not even weeps

he says whips

jesus

[taco1359]

uuhhhhhhhmmmmmm

OKAY?

[shibainuwalker]

This dude has other videos on youtube. Regonize him by the weird hats. who is this guy? His playing is okay I think his sitar needs tuning though it is soothing

[wpken14]

you really wanna be the guy to tell him he needs to tune THAT? lol

[88ragtime]

Actually sitars, like other Indian stringed instruments, use notes called microtonics, which are really out of tune notes, that's why it sounds so dissonant.

[peter611234]

right on

[DinoDude65]

nice hat

[KostasJP]

Waste of bandwidth.

[NathanForstGump]

Nice! A sitar comedy for two! I like the way you stare into the camera with that cap? on your head. Okay, now without hands!

[youtuke220]

ur amazing.. i wish i could play like that

[phraktl]

Fail.

[namusav]

Now sober up and try it

[peter611234]

LOL yeah hes baked

[jsvargas94]

give up

[njsacrick]

Your sitar gently whips whlie you play the song

[peter611234]

why do u think he sucks?

[tekmatic38]

cuz he does you stupid fucking faggot

go choke on a dick you dumbass

who the fuck is named "peter" anyway

faggot

[TomMotster]

you should consult a doctor!

You kill the spirit of this instrument!

[peter611234]

how does he do taht he is clearly going on a psychodelic trip!

[MMCCmansonboy]

Hay good how much did that sitar cost?

[jingleOjohn]

entropy u need to work hard more.

[PIELOVER375]

NIce hat, douchebag.

[Raylj318]

is the sitar really hard i really think i could get a jam out of that allt hose sounds awesome

[simonrives]

Now *that* is both one seriously out of tune sitar and one very echo rich room. What's with the damn hat?

[jazzdog2]

its not out of tune ... It's indian and they have semitones and not the western 12 tone scale

[simonrives]

I'm familiar with Hindustani musical systems and I wouldn't sit on stage with a sitar tuned like that!

[jazzdog2]

oh ok. The only thing I know about sitars is the bottom two (i think) are tuned tritones of F#???

[simonrives]

You tune your instrument depending upon the raga and/or playing situation. And different musicians use different tunings and different gauge strings too, the two most popular being Pandit Ravi Shankarji's tuning and Ustad Vilayat Khan Sahib's tuning. Raviji's style, for example, may include the following notes:

M ̣S ̣̣̣̣̣ ̣P ̣̣̣̣̣ ̣S ̣P S Ś

which may be:

F, C, G, C, G

[apstatfinal]

oh shit simonrives just pwned your ass

[kleinebudde]

This definitely is not "While my guitar gently weeps" and btw. it's called "weeps" and not "whips"... When I'm listening to you I have to weep :/

[WolfeBear]

Whoops! Was thinking of the past vid. But I may as well ask here; are gourds used for the tablas? How are the gourds for the sitar different from the ones grown in America?  I'm interested in trying to make both Sitar and Tabla, but I am desiring to know details. Why are the gourds for the sitar so dark? I notice similar gourds coming out of Africa; are they similar when dried and cured?

Tons of questions... who do I ask?

[rachelqursan]

The same couple of chords over and over and over..... boring man. It didn't grab my attention at all. Nice try tho :)

[karlita85]

wtf!

[voodoochile9547]

ok woah. here's how it goes, they up load the music, we comment on it, and if we got nothing good to say then click on something else, we do not need to bring vulgarities into this.

[Gywhard]

suck my anus

[Blueveiner]

Only if you're wearing that hat. Reminds me of Harlan the mechanic from the movie "U-Turn".

[ghish2000]

if i had to judge him based on this video alone, he sucks. and if that's really supposed to be 'while my guitar gently weeps,' then he REALLY sucks.

[willysarenice]

this is not meant to be a pointless, hate-mail comment, as i do think what you have up here is good. however, in response to some of the comments on here calling this man a 'musical genius' and such like words, i must say that what is shown here is very simple, and although it sounds good there is nothing unique or stylistic about his playing. he may well be an amazing sitar player, but this video does not show the best light. it may be because westerners arent used to eastern notations?

[folkhippie500]

LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!

[fretburner08]

are you serious?

[4DoggyPals]

how is that humanly possibil

[sheikyerbouti1983]

a musical genius but he looks like a twat :D

[Ziggerplz]

same with most musical genius.

Buckethead, Dan Deacon[different genre's, yes]

[didierusa1]

This man is a musical genius. An inspiration. I want to sign him to my record label, I'm thinking of pairing him with Tay Zonday. This is clearly the recipe for success, along the lines of Lennon-McCartney. Let the music begin and the world will rejoice.

[rextangle]

Where can I buy your CD? I need mo'freesbies

[andybohadana]

spot on! cool.

[darkmagik104]

this guy is my idol

[whwstudio]

Me too!

[TuneInTurnOnDropOut]

Wheeps? You mean "weeps", don't you?

[gungasdindin]

You might be taken a little more seriously if you got rid of the hat.

[mountainjackmorgan]

Brilliant! have you made any albums? best thing I have seen for years, thanks

[entropy78]

I have not made any albums yet, however, I am willing to cut a dvd for a nominal fee ;) First 100 copies will sport a personal signature by the performer.

[LibraDionysus]

Good try mate .. Excellent .. Don't stop here .. Keep trying ... it will improve ..

[polsitar]

ouch... this is horrible!!! like a small drunk child!!! the ragas are crying!!! why show yourself up like this?

[turydragon]

People have to start somewhere. I actually admire him because hes not afraid of what people think.

[polsitar]

huh... a little ignorance goes a long way!!!

[turydragon]

I can see that

[mazman41]

he is not playing it

[mountainjackmorgan]

You say "he's not playing it" Do you know who is playing it ? please ! I gotta know

[paragrintook]

yeah i agree, theres nothing wrong with his playing, he's obviously not the best in the world but hes pretty good. by the way, where did you get the sitar??

[entropy78]

I bought it in East Sussex.

[Antroid]

Your all ideots, you say he sucks but I'de liek to see you pick up a sitar and play shit all. its not even that bad, he's vibrating the strings fine - why do you all feel teh need to critesize?

[viejitas]

YOU SUCK!

[entropy78]

Ooooh, all the anger. Not happy with your life, are you? I love you too. Perhaps sitar lessons from Gavi Shankar could help to balance your Ying-Yang. And lastly, don't take yourself too seriously.

[skamaldeen]

oooooooooh a wanna be ravi shankar huh... more like joe satriani haahahahaha

[Samadhijunkie]

well, ah step1 you bought a sitar (cool), step2 learn to tune it properly, step3 have fun

[bozomahoney]

I don't like it, but then I can't play it....good on you though!

[paragrintook]

where do you get sitars?

[manoj9800]

man u suck!!!!!

[0Sought0]

a person with little knowledge of music can play this thing in manners, but this dude has gone mad....

[toobusytothinkaname]

This guy is simply idiot, haha... I'm gonna post myself playing My Way with two spoons.

[manofnofixedinstrume]

WTG Gavi....rock it!!!

[alexrobes]

you suck

[alexrobes]

my "you suck" comment was not for the sitar player, it was for 1010frank1011 and his chain letter post.

[1010frank1011]

sorry, i was being ironic because of a guy who had posted another chain letter about his mother which has been deleted

[gratefulfloyd28]

i dont see any irony in this situation

[1010frank1011]

jesus!! will you guys forget my stupid chain letter that wasn't suposed to be one because i hate chain letters? talk about sitars!

[LeviMan2001]

i agree with thedood, and ha ha that hat does not go with the song lol

[darkmagik104]

I think this guy is awesome!!!

[jasperbeardly]

Why? That shit was boring as fuck! All the guy did was ride on one open string. A novice can easily do what he did

[mitchull45]

you only fret one string in sitar dipshit

[jasperbeardly]

stop defending crappy music plain and simple IT SUCKS

[hirofan]

jasper, so then a novice has no right to make a video? The guy has a sitar.. that makes me respect the heck out of him.

[wirth90]

I like you sir/ma'am

[TheDood951]

lol!!! this dood looks super stoned!!!! i think this fool is out of his mind stoned jus look at his facial expressions lol

[littlesteviedirkx]

Sitar + Retard = Sitard

[imperialcereal]

thats a good one

[Jacknifeslide]

at least his sitar is semi-in tune all yall haters

[kingbee11]

Big Dork!

[zephrah]

his fingers looks awfully short. and that hat is really bad.

[badmoonrising06]

shheeett yoo i want a sitar

[suelepasar]

boring'n'bad

[Datselguf2]

all music are build up with Noise;)

[wowo72]

is this a music? i hear only some noise

[reformedman]

I think there's a bug on the camera, he keeps looking at the camera as if it's going to do something.

[ddb3k]

Do you think he got the hat at the same place he bought the sitar?
