  • Muy interesante

  • can't believe people listen to that Justin Beiber wack job and think that's music, it's not... this is REAL music.

  • This really needs a whole lot more views

  • @horacioabraham I'm working on it.

  • I'm looking forward to learn this song after I've recorded my debut album! :)

    Craig's songs are so emotional and beautiful! :)

  • damn Beneteau guitars...they're so nice; wish i had the money for one.

    wonderful playing =]

  • Check out craig's own channel Craigd19 for more!

  • I distrust 8 people

  • TABS WILL BE OUT SHORTLY (or so says facebook)! Just thought i'd keep everyone updated. For all you doubters, just trust me.

  • beautiful!!

  • With a beard, he looks a little like Ricky Gervais. This is the music I listen to when I study.

  • @MrXtyne

    Maybe he looks more like Joshua Jackson

  • Simple Math:

    Total number of likes - 1,206

    Total number of dislikes - 8

    1206/1214 = 99.34% of people that watch and rate like this.

    What percent are you in?

  • @OmfgTheyAreAllTaken We are the 99.34 percent.

    xP sorry I couldn't resist. Maybe we should start an Occupy Candyrat Movement?

  • best intro ever

  • Trust me, i'm a doctor...

  • On replay all day

  • He's my favourite :D!

  • Do any of the candyrat artist play a nylon string guitar? Great song though

  • what technique of game does he use ? and as it to learn ? prompt me...

  • Comment removed

  • Dude, you just keep getting better and better....and better. You have a wonderful gift, thank you for sharing.

  • 8 plp didnt trust him!!

  • looks like his head is floating.

  • Good stuff -- love your tone

  • Any of you get the urge to paste your face over his in this video and pretend it was you playing it? Or is that just me?.... <.<

  • The title and the song itself is just so amazing...

  • these candyrat guys are insane

  • man i wish he made tabs for this song, I'd buy em immediately!

  • Kind of Music that I like

  • You owe me a new guitar. Mine just jumped out of my window as it heard your music.

  • @vinipcaddict lol that comment deserves more likes

  • @treeradioproductions Ty bro hahaha

  • FUCKIN' GREAT guy !

  • 0:14 Fringe!

  • @calyptratus187 I was thinking the same thing!

  • i like your guitar too!

  • amazing song dude! love it!

  • Craig I always love rpoland's uploads; he never lets me down. Just lovely and keep playing for Mother Gaia hears your love coming from your heart--this is what is helping to awaken the masses as musicians as yourself share your gift given to you and your love spills forth from it. Blessings to you my friend.:-)))

  • wow that was nothing short of spectacular, well done craig

  • Since you started playing your music. It's fascinating.

  • Beaunteu or something guitars. Also, Craigs best work is Darker songs, he is so talent, but when he composes darker songs, I feel so much more emotion from him.

  • I never said Sungha Jung wasn't talented. Hell I'm only 5 or so years older than him and he's far better than me, but as far as the top 5 acoustic guitarists OF ALL TIME? If you think think he's up there then I think you are sorely mistaken. The kid's bloody amazing don't get me wrong, but there are many more guitarists out there who are much better and play with more feeling. And it's just my opinion blah blah blah I think we can stop the Sungha Jung thing now yeah?

  • I love how he flips us all off right before the video ends. As if to say, yeah that' s right, I'm that damn good!

  • What's the brand of the guitar?

  • @julienjoblo Who cares? It's how you play it that really counts. You can make a good guitar sound horrid and vice versa. But to answer your question, it's got a B on the headstock... In other words, I have no clue.

  • @BigCanOfBeans. People like to know the brand of guitars because each brand gives a guitar a different voice to play then other ones, being able to make them sing on the other hand is a completely story.A piece of shit guitar won't help your playing. The style of guitar matters,just like personality on person they are all different and will benefit your playing skills more.

  • @sommervilleTRS117 Good point. However, I did get most of my skills playing a $200 Essex guitar - I'm just closer to it than the 12 string - and making sure I can make it sound $300 more expensive by the way that i play it has certainly paid off. Saying that, I think that these guys should promote the guitar brand as well as their playing abiilities in order to reduce the amount of comments that ask what the brand of guitar is, and to increase sales to the company.

  • @julienjoblo it's a beneteau

  • @joohj1187 I don't think so, this is the famous B of Breedlove guitars ;)

  • @Cyberbob182 it is well spotted, its their new series. Got a Breedlove Focus SE what an

    instrument they are ;)

  • @Cyberbob182 i'm pretty sure craig plays beneteaus (the B does look similar on both makes, but it is most definitely a beneteau, unless im losing my sight). either way, it's a great song!

  • @joohj1187 Ok then you may be right, I don't know the Beneteaus brand. And definitely, it's a great song !

  • @joohj1187 It is a beneteau :)

  • This is gorgeous

  • Anyone that thinks that little Korean kid isn't ridiculously gifted is either jealous, an idiot, or both. Enough said.

  • @TheBdriver gifted and talented definately- but whether you would actually want to listen to the way he palys those arrangements is a different thing altogether. But yeah the kid's amazing..

  • excellent .. beautiful guitar work.

  • um.. were talking about the little Korean kid here ? The one that plays arrangements of songs that not only carry the guitars melody but also the vocal lines implied over it at the same time ??!! THAT KID ?? People think he's untalented ? I bet the guy playing this video above would disagree with those statements in a heartbeat. As for myself all I can say is if someone thinks that kid isn't ridiculously gifted their either jealous, an idiot, or both.

  • @TheBdriver As i said before, he has great skills and a good feeling but , (it's surely subjective because you seem many to be disagree with me) I really feel he misses something when he plays , including on his eighteen originals pieces... So I must to be jealous and stupid...

  • Excellent tune, great playing.

  • his music is getting shorter..... :(

  • Captivating, compelling, invigorating, healing, epic, magnificent....need I go on?

  • Slightly chubby version of Justin Timberlake. I had to concentrate for the first 10 seconds to make sure it wasn't him. In my defense, he pops into every other video nowadays

  • Stop talking bad about Sungha Jung, He is great. So as Craig D'Andrea.

  • @karimfnaire1 I don't think so ... Sungha has great skills and a good feeling but he miss something with his guitar... he's not playing , he's recites ... According to me It's just a pity , now if you wanna scream "LEAVE SUNGHA ALONE!!!!" you can , but i guess i'm right.

  • @AydanJHooper All I- m Saying Sungh Jung is very good hes an artist.

    Not like u at very least, so go suck some balls or somthing

  • @karimfnaire1 Great comment... But you should try to spend more time on your guitar before to write some bullshit on Youtube

  • @AydanJHooper You're comment are the bullshit.

  • @karimfnaire1 OMG

  • @AydanJHooper quit being a troll

  • Along with your life, your music matures with you as you get older. When you're just a kid, you haven't had the emotional exposure that adults have experienced. That is what we tailor inside all of us, and our music is a reflection of that which we experience. Kids naturally don't put a lot of that into music as they have not experienced it yet, and as they get older tailor their music style as they grow. This is what makes all musicians unique and prosperous.

  • @ikluhsman I'm 12 and this is my fav band/musician.

  • Comment removed

  • Good technique.

  • special tuning???

  • Befor watching the video: "huum, let's try play this one"

    After watching the video: "FUCK, i'll never touch my guitar again!"

  • thank you , i enjoyed every second .

  • tuning?

  • @nonposs1

    Tuning is EADF#C#E

  • Sungha Jung WTF?! He can only cover songs like a robot with no feelings and emotions. I just don't like him. I'm not racist but he is like a kid who was drilled in young years from the parents like most of the asian who can something really good. Maybe I'm not correct but it seems like that.

  • @babbersabber you clearly haven't heard his original songs. the kid has talent man. sure he's not in my top 5 but it does not diminish his talent in any way shape or form. he's a great guitarist. moreso than the majority of commenters on these canyrat videos

  • @devrocks80 What's your top 5?...

    

  • @TrazomAmadeus hmm that's a tough one. I can't really rationalize it without leaving a buttload of amazing ones out since I'm listening to antoine one minute and mckee the next. So I'm just gonna name the first 5 guitarists I can think of off the top of my head when presented with a question like that to give you an overview of what I'm into at this moment. In no particular order Craig D'andrea, Antoine Dufour, T Cophony, Trevor Gordon Hall and John Butler

  • @babbersabber at his age he's far better than all these pro players

  • @cheapsheep4sale thats not the point, besides, being a "better" guitar player isnt a one dimensional factor that you can easily compare

  • @molitatron ok, he's got more skill in techniques and emotion than all of the pros did at his age

  • @cheapsheep4sale its in that detail, "and emotion" that some people will disagree with you :P. personally, i dont feel qualified to make such judgements, but not all of his music, regardless of skill involved, makes my boat float

  • I've watched this guy from great to amazing over the last 4 years... wow. So sick!!!

  • Just about anyone can do this with enough practice and dedication. It doesn't matter whether you're a musical prodigy or an "after-party strummer" (like myself :p), you still need to practice and if you wanna be as good as this guy, you need to love what you're doing! Dedication, lots of practice and most important of all; Have fun while you're playing! :D

  • I think my guitar just committed suicide

  • @AGirlAndHerDreams She's tellin you to play her.

  • Awesome !

  • Found my new favorite. Sorry Antoine!

  • I also LOVE this guitar playing!

  • Comment removed

  • WOW LOVE HIS GUITAR *---*

  • Someone's trying to sound like Andy McKee. 

  • @vampyros1 really? that's a fair statement.

  • gefällt saraniemitz und dianjiec :D

  • simply gorgeous!

  • LOVE your vibe and sound!

  • it's not the guitar!

  • Man do I Need to find Tabs for this song. Can anyone point me in the direction where I can find some?

  • @mackjaco just buy the freakin' tabs and support the artist.

  • @SkaterCoD you find out where they're on sale and get back to me when you do.

  • @joohj1187 how about the description?

  • @SkaterCoD click that link, go to craig's section, scroll down and you will see that there are only 8 tab sets out (which i have all bought), none of which include this composition. Thanks for trying though.

  • @joohj1187 Yeah...I'm working on getting that Tab set 9 out!

  • damn, what a killer tone he´s got

  • Nice air sound like on this recording :) . What kinda microphones are used ? Neumann KM184 ?? Any tube preamp ? . Very nice job playing of course :)

  • Dont blame the 4 that have pressed the Dislike button, they thought it was the Internet language for "This like"

  • Excellent performance. Impressive technique and the mics and guitar sound quality are brilliant. Would like to know the guitar make and model and mic makes and models that you used. Keep playing and creating.

  • I don't get how people could actually dislike this. I guess they have no aim with their curser and missed the like button.

  • I don't even trust my own brother, so why should I trust him? lol

    Nice song though.

  • Amazing job! :)

  • tablature please - i want to say this is my favorite piece on the new album, but they're all freaking amazing.

  • wheres that guy from 5 years ago? on this channel

  • @BlackRushNL Do you mean Andy McKee... 'cause if you do I completely agree.

  • @brianfrein he changed labels over a year ago, posts on his own channel now

  • @BlackRushNL he changed labels over a year ago, posts on his own channel now

  • @mutley2209 Wanna give me then name of it?

  • @BlackRushNL search AndyMcKeeEVO no spaces

  • @mutley2209 thx mate!

  • i wish this song would go on and on forever..

  • black t-shirt+black background :S

  • amazing, beautifully played

  • wow, his guitar sounds amaaazing

  • @mrjones918 Beneteaus are masterful.

  • He is very good, I wish I could do that on my guitar.

  • That sounded great, wanna play it on my radio show. It's recorded beautifully and the guitar sounds so good. 

  • Brain S'plosion!

    

  • could you at least make it look like you're trying? haha! :)

  • one of my favorite artists ever how i want to be as him

  • I agree with epiclance regarding sunha. That kid has some serious skills, obviously, but I find the playing a little lacking in soul

  • good luck brother .. nice

  • The slide/hammer on/pull off sequence at about :51 and 1:19 is ORGASMIC. I'm in love with this song. Thanks for the masterful work craig.

  • this sounds like it would exceed all awesomeness levels with some soulful vocals sprinkled on top.

  • Beautiful sound !

  • @Xtem2 Sungha Jung? Seriously?

  • @BombProofCarrot Why not?

  • @CRVZS Personally, although sungha is an excellent guitarist, i find the pieces that he has actually written himself a little generic, and composition wise i might put someone like Don Alder or Sergio Altamura ahead of him in my top 5. Don't get me wrong, technically he is amazing, but composition wise his pieces are a little dull. On topic, this is amazing! Good job Craig :)

  • @epicLance254 Thanks for your answer. Its nice read an answer without insults in youtube :)

    I like more Sungha than Don Alder... and Sungha is just 15. I didnt know Sergio... I will take a listen.

  • @BombProofCarrot @Xtem2 I would replace Sungha Jung for Jimmy Wahlsteen.

  • @Ramon1233 Wahlsteeeeeeeeeeen <3

  • @CelestialLarrivee jimmy wahlsteen is DEF up there

  • @hugenoodles Craig is tops though.

  • @BombProofCarrot @Xtem2..... for u two guys... sungha is a great guitarrist.... but he is just in the start of his carreer.... for other side... why a TOP 5?... tommy emmanuel have the first ten spots... in the top 20.. so.. shh

  • @BombProofCarrot yep :>

  • @BombProofCarrot

    Why do you have to put Sungha down to make a point that Craig is a genius?

    Is your universe too small to contain 2 geniuses?.

  • @iggyvarkentje The problem is here , Sungha is not a genius ! There's a difference between learn and try to recite poems and write them ....

  • amazing

  • Awesome, i like how you sharpened your style with years, thanks for the good music :) keep it up!!

  • Is it just me, or does he look like the guy from "The Fringe" TV show?

  • I love that cute little music note on the fret board. c:

  • dang

  • amazing guitar sound...!

  • Dude you suck, you can't play powerchords for SHIT

    All jokes aside, you made me jizz my pants

  • Look! A floating head & arms that can play guitar!

  • always amazing, inspiring and up lifting!

  • Beautiful as always, One day I hope to be as brilliant as you. My fave candyrat player by far (love all the others aswell!)

  • I want to see the process it takes in making their songs. The ideas of how they think of piecing it together and what not.

  • There seems to be a contraption that rests on the bottom of the guitar to lift it up, to make it more comfortable to play or something? What's it called?

  • sweet track i love it!

  • This piece reminds me other musical piece that you made, I think that is "Do you like Tricks, Chris?"

    But, anyway, great piece of music!

  • Great sounding guitar!!

  • @SWflexibility

    a guitar is as good as the player.. So your guitar COULD sound like this

  • @bipron Haha i know it was just for the fun :D

  • nice...

    

  • Why can´t my guitar do this?

  • @SWFlexibility mine too *cry*
