Symphony X - sea of lies - Antonio Ceci

[fneu0000]

CLEAN !

[DannyBoy777]

Still the best cover of this song on YouTube.

[Sortsylic]

Rarely highquality cover. Not only this song...All the music on YouTube is covered poorly. Thnx for this

[Sortsylic]

Incredible! Greetings from Russia

[SiiKIZ3ROI]

You played it right but it sounded like it wasn't in the right running. Were you in D?

[AyreonsDimension]

@SiiKIZ3ROI its not on the oringial tunning

[XxDeanPxX]

left hand like michael romeo himself..very well made cover btw too. Gj

[BassPlayerGuy123]

\m/ ( -.- ) \m/

[mikesolo94]

I like ur technic of playing guitar. U are really awesome.

[sa86D]

great cover man

[236987451]

Wow! Your playing style is exactly like Michael Romeo's!

So smooth and soft!

Awesome covers!

[JDeRyck]

great cover! congratulation =]

\m/

[fabianernestopacheco]

buona canzone. ma suona molto stonato. Siete sicuri di essere nella scala corretta?

[francesco149]

@fabianernestopacheco è su un accordatura diversa da quella dell'originale.

[stroke117]

good cover and excelent song my friend

[nopainmoregain]

Superb

[TEO1994sniper]

Very clean sound. Really nice! Great job!

[store1992]

[andoprendido]

WOOOWWW O.O

[sonicmann101]

[sergei9935]

[Sladow91]

dove hai trovato la base con cubase?

[asr72]

Antonio, you are incredible! Forza Bari!

[dark121it]

@asr72  Thank you very much! ;)

[scrofascrofa]

@dark121it scusa la domanda, per te sea of lies è tecnicamente meno difficile di " in the dragon's den" sempre dei symphony x?

te lo chiedo perhè ho visto che hai fatto la cover anche di quella, secondo me in the dragon's den è molto piu tosta ma volevo il parere di un esperto :)

[dark121it]

@scrofascrofa

Sì, secondo me In the Dragon's den è molto più difficile di sea of lies.

[7metal4life7]

Hell yes long live Italians and Metal!!!

[monkeyman410]

the intro riff to this is so sick, im not that big of a fan of all the tapping tho, any tips on learning the intro?

[WhyWBJ69]

sweet

[slashy04]

right hand is sick, it looks like you have 6 fingers :P

[kamillo0606]

Awesome Man! 

[diogorenato]

bravo, bravo!!!

is this an Ibanez RG1550?

[04145322403]

damn dude, id give u head without any doubt. Id pull those pants down and taste that fucking cock till i make u jerk off on my face :D

[TheFacilidade]

Estão faltando notas demais ai ein parceiro! You've missed a lot of notes there my buddy, but you play pretty well!!

[dannyhood66]

Very fucking good!

[WhiteBassCT]

Antonio mi sono guardato tutti i tuoi video e questo mi è piaciuto particolarmente in quanto mi piacciono molto i Symphony X, devo dire che la "freddezza e sicurezza" che dimostri è davvero una bella cosa da vedere, sai davvero il fatto tuo con la chitarra e devo farti i complimenti in quanto hai molta creatività e abilità! :)

[dark121it]

@WhiteBassCT Grazie per i complimenti.

Spero di pubblicare entro quest' anno dei video di pezzi miei, così si potrà giudicare meglio la mia "abilità creativa"!  ;)

[DietGrape]

3:10 is the best lick

and I'm glad that I saw this cuz on the tab I was using the 1st solo was some crazy sweep in a weird position, but now i know it's string skipping

[ricky888able]

grande aNTONIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!! ti stimo sei un mito

[dark121it]

@ricky888able Grazie molte :)

[scrofascrofa]

@dark121it sei un chitarrista con i controcazzi, le sezioni solo sono pulitissime, la canzone è perfetta...

sto studiando anchio sea of lies....spero di riuscire a farla come te!

Keep metal bro! ;)

[dark121it]

@scrofascrofa

Grazie molte! In bocca al lupo anche a te. ;)

[dirtydonki]

Not perfect but never the less a pretty awesome interpretation.

[brandonson420]

whats the best tab?

[willenanda]

Very good ... I'm your fan

Directly from Brazil

[jucacoldmen]

you play very well dude! congratulations

[Themethalmaster]

Hell yeaah! This dude is so freakin good. Hearing and seeing him playing is like having sex with a hot woman. Ok, not that good, but awesome too ;-D

[OmniscientVirtuosity]

I don't see how anybody can rate this down? This is damn near Romeo status with shitty gear (or at least from what I can tell) This dude is fucking ridiculous. I think it's played here in E. It's not even the right tuning and it sounds flawless. That's great playing. Does not deserve dislikes. Maybe his hair, but not the musicianship

[x0ryuga0x]

SORRY but not speak much english xD

creo que lo haces un tono mas alto de lo que debería ser la canción original xD

[WHEGONOR]

sound a bit diferent, anyway nice job dude

[plasticPlaystation]

yeah!

[jeez0o]

face on 0:45 is saying - see how cool am I, biach? D:<

haha :D

very good playing tho

[chamucopirata]

excelente

[explicatus]

I can play the whole thing but some of the lower fret stretches are hard because god cursed me with small fingers :( Well done

[rawrisimo]

did I just see a pinky finger tapping??? D:

[alexisbassist]

AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!

See the song Sea of lies by Atake del dragon

vean la versión de Sea Of Lies tocado por Atake del Dragon

put:

sea of lies atake del dragon

[zeythan]

hello antonio please watch my video and comment...by the way grat job...I hope I´ll be in italy soon.

[DarkGrey09]

sei un mostrooo!!complimentii

[charlatanmalmsteen8]

get change on the sweep tapping

[luridsorcerer]

@charlatanmalmsteen8 The pattern sounded right, the notes on the whole solo sounded off. Might just be that my ears need more training, though.

[hauor]

@luridsorcerer it´s because he´s tuned 1 step up than the original would be.

great job ! :)

[ACrum615]

great job

[AcousticalyTim]

holy shit tht was sick great job!

[suburbangal]

this guy is very good. 5 stars for him!

P[LEASE go to my favs and click on SUBURBAN GUY ROCKIN OUT

he doesnt read music, really feels what he plays and improivses his songs as he goes along. the other 2 favs are him also ARIEL (awesome shredding) and ARIEL SIMANTOV (awesome sweeping) pls view comment and rate them as we think he deserves recognition .thanks everyone!

[Dopaminergie]

PERFECT!!! You did a really good work on this Symphony X masterpiece.

No unwilling noise, perfect technique with the legato-sweeping-tapping-up&dow­n. I will never imagine to know how to play that. Thanks a lot. Please give us more SX pleasure!

[Skate8782]

[fanne86]

Complimenti davvero O_O ma perché l'hai fatta più alta di tonalità?Sono un batterista però mi sembra che sia un tono sopra..

[tcheou83]

Ecxellent cover , great playing !!

[dethtrone]

GOOD VERY GOOD,excepicional guitarplayer

[LJNN]

BRILIIANT

GRATS FROM MEXICO

[MetalChild96]

it's not perfect but it is really good!!!!! and it is erally cool that you've done the song by your selft ;)

[therpope]

hes good!! very good.

but

i dont like such videos...you learn this over months or years and king micheal must play it in two weeks!

[DarkERocker]

Maybe but not every one has michael's technique.

And to have his technique you must work a lot and play a lot of difficult songs ( which you learn in months and to have a perfect execution you must play it for years ), after that I think you can play this kind of song in two weeks like michael ;)

And yeah, he is really good :D

[BradScala84]

Bravissimo..davvero complimenti!!!! Non ti preoccupare se c'è qualche imprecisione, il pezzo è davvero difficile!!!! Let's rock!!! :D

[GenerationDown]

Niko Bellic will fuck you up

[DaRkDrew86]

complimenti!!

[FIndelCOB]

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

[luisrgamez]

[panconquesoderretido]

[glassprisoner417]

[trofantos]

Really nice !

[blacklung7]

can someone tell me an easy symphony x song to start on guitar?

[PolloXdeth]

candlelight fantasia intro ;)

[Phoenygzus]

Set the world on fire is pretty simple.. its mostly just powerchords, slides and few simple runs :) (excluding the solo of course...)

[Paninian]

One of my favorite tapping riffs.

[caneggia]

SHINE ON ME AGAIN!!!!

[michealjordan94115]

wow sei mitico !!!!!!!! continua cosi...

[drums4metal]

Excelent dude!! the only detail that you missed is that the song is in D tune, but you are awesome, keep it up

[thiagotecnico]

[edmega332]

Grande Antonio.. Bellissima cover, Peccato per il tono sopra sennò sarebbe stata quasi perfetta

Bravissimo continua così

Stay Rock

[Lendwin]

solti un due note però compliemti=)

[not2getto]

sanitarium... i feel bad man.. i know how it is to lose something you love because of health.. i once too lost the ability to play guitar for about 3 years due to a left shoulder injury.. thank god it got better but it was awful not being able to play the same things i once could.. all my best wishes bro. ill pray for ya. haha

[not2getto]

bahahahahahahaha i love the awkward feeling u get from watching starting at 1:36

[ture84]

can you or somebody please give me some instructions of how to do that tapping solo at the beginning of 02.44?

[antoniown]

here you go

1.take your finger

2.stick it up ur ass

3. you're playing the solo!!

[Darkdevil1584]

HEY it didnt work

[antoniown]

lmao i dont even remember half of the comments i put on here

[SMARTEYE335]

great man...very good , symphony for ever

[kaiserbatch]

THAT GUITAR ROCKS¡¡¡¡¡

[araisstraker]

nice job man i like this

[firstdance2]

Molto bravo. L'ultimo assolo non ti è riuscito perfetto - hai fatto almeno tre errori -, ma comunque grande prestazione. Complimenti.

[COBHC123]

I believe you did the keys part accidentally..

[burnsometrashcans]

awesome!

what did you do to get your left hand and fingers to make such small movements?

i think its a great advantage for playing fast if you get your fingers that way PLUS it looks super cool haha!

[macoofka]

Bravo, Antonio! Your tapping sounds a little bit different, but anyway you play the song great! :))

[tilulilu90]

Damn...How long did it take you to get that good? Have you taken lessons or somethin? Im self learned player and I´ve played somethin between 3 to 5 years, lost the track of time at some point, but I cant imagen myself to become that good..

Plus Im too lazy to learn anything from note to note, I usually look/listen the basic structure of a solo and then do it kinda like it was done but in my own way.. :)

[KrapXela]

Its good you learn to improvise that way. But if you learn a lot of songs note per note, you'll start noticing familiar patterns that will help when trying to learn solos quickly. Well at least thats what I have noticed.

[tilulilu90]

That a fact too, while learning GNR for example I have noticed that Slash uses same kind of scale structrures(some bluesscale I think).

But like I said, I feel it´s more interesting to learn those little basic structures and then do it your own way, rather than learn those structures and do them exactly like in the original.

Isnt solos point kind to show how talented the guitarist actually is? I think that doesnt show unless you make any solo as your own. ;) That´s what I think anyways..

[Sanitarium1985]

get lessons mate....i love guitar and i wish i took lessons when i was ur age..i have poor health now so its pointless me getting them, im self taught and before i got ill i was pretty good. The best thing anyone can do is get proffesional lessons. Theory sucks really but the neck is one big scale if u know wat u doing

[tilulilu90]

I really wich I had money for that, but I dont... :(

I can only wich I can train myself alone, at least to the point I get to work and have money to pay someone to teach me better..

[Sanitarium1985]

well if you ever need some guidance lol. I cant play guitar much cos of my health but i know how to. Little things like how u hold the pick can make so much differance. Loads of cool online lessons. Loads on here too.

[tilulilu90]

Actually I´ve improved some of my stuff during these years I´ve been playing, just by watching some online lesson videos.

For example like you said how to hold the pick, when I started I used the pick by putting it against my thump with index and middle finger, later I learned it should be hold with just index and thump and that you should not put much pressure to it. Im not saying I hold pick right now, but pretty close I think.. :)

[Sanitarium1985]

1tip i can give, which helps especially4squeels&mor so sweep pickin.Try finding the angle of the pic where u pass ova the strings with practicly no friction.Its kinda hard to explain wat i mean but if u can do this while sweepin u get clean sweeps wit no extra noise&usin this angle4solo'in wil make get such a better sound out of a guitar.Once you find this angle it makes shreddin alot easier.damn i wish i wasnt ill...make the most of music mate.oneday it might get taken away from you.

[tilulilu90]

Thanks for tips mate. :)

I think music can never been complitely taken away from anyone, cos you can allways listen and enjoy it and even if you loose your hearings you can allways keep up the melody in your head.

So dont get too desperate, since shadows cant be done without light. If you get my point from my bad english and stupid metafors. ;)

[Sanitarium1985]

You make good sense, so thank you :) Being positive is always a good thing :) I hope that you keep getting better on the guitar and become proud of urself.

[RoGuExXxAsSaSiN]

damn man you got it!! That was sick dude!

[masterboi31]

nice job man

your fingers look like they dont move off the strings, thats some sweet technique

:D

[dhakagod]

I want to know somthing....when we start the song...the intro...do we pick each and every note ? or use legatos ?

[dark121it]

use legato generally.

But one times, at least, is ALL picked(I don't remember how many times...).

If you pay attention to the sound, you'll find the right way to play it. Good Luck! ;)

[dhakagod]

ohk..thx..but in this video..from 0:20 to 0:30 ...u hav used legatos..occaisionally...i guess...and i read it in this foum in ultimate guitar..that its played by piking...no legatos....(that would be tough!!)

[dark121it]

Until 00:29 it's legato.

Exactly at 00:30 it's picking.

Any way....hear the original song if you've any doubt :)

[caseynjoshco]

wow! your amazing!
