Fast Car ( Tracy Chapman ) - Igor Presnyakov

[justin0688]

i can't stop laughing at how good this is!

[sk8rhammy]

i love how much energy and heart he puts into his music and the fact he keeps smiling shows he just enjoys it nothing better rock on my friend!

[LOTRTom100]

i have started learning to play fast car, but there is no way that my version of fast car will be any better than igor's. he uses more hammer-ons and pull-offs than me. still he is better than most guitarists. if not he is the best. :)

[jon3617]

To everyone asking how he is playing w one hand, he is using techniques called hammer-ons on pull-offs... If you do these right, it allows you to play notes without strumming

[alexlrg100]

Hey, I'm a young classical guitarist, desperate to get noticed! Please check out my channel, I know most of you won't!

[MrHaryuken]

ummmm..... Wow :)

[ausjosh85]

this is so good...

[Missydewitt69]

You can tell he is a passionate about his music.. Amazing

[sense321]

he can play with one hand better then most can with two!

[Mintbeans123]

musical genius. enough said.

[grinman2000]

WIMOWIOP..........AWESOME!!!!!­

[Grauloeckchen]

One Man Band !!!!!!

[metallica7639]

Can someone tell me how he plays with one hand ?

[maggielulola]

@metallica7639 because he's an absolute genius

[TheVikification]

le-gen-da-ry

[oOJakkeOo]

I love this song! And with Igor playing it he really made my day!

[SummersScottX]

WAIT....how in all the of the FLYING CRAP is he doing that with one hand?!

[AsILayDyingBFMV]

i play this the same way as him.. lol except i dont do the voice notes with it

[WynnRaz]

How does this guy can make a guitar sing ?!

[Sherpaful]

the zen master!

[bvhzan]

um hELLO where IS the LOVE Button!!

[mataviswhite]

yeah I just did that with one hand .....what you got!!!!!

[carpars0]

amazing Igor, what a amazing voice :D

[Harmoxtrinity]

You sir, are full of awesome!!

[AirsoftToTheExtreme]

You can see the passion and love he puts into his performances, that is what makes a great musician, not just being able to play extremely well, but being able to feel the music and put that into your performances.

[municchi]

I was going to say his intro didn't sound any different from the way I play it....then I realized he was playing it with one hand

[tom0breen]

boss!!

[guitarrhythymfool]

When I first heard this song, I cried because it hit me in a way that very few songs have ever touched me.

Your rendition has done the same thing for me that Tracy's original did for me. Thank you.

You're a true inspiration.

[ViceNirvana]

Igor Presnyakov > Sungha Jung

[achmedda3rd]

only used one hand in the intro...WTF?!!!! INCREDIBLE MAN!

[HarmFlo]

so much feeling.. perfect

[luistratocaster]

Absolutely awesome!

[apsou02]

onirique. simplement onirique

[reecesturdy]

He doesn't need to go on the x-factor or britains got talent. He's making his own success via youtube. I wish him all the best. You're amazing man.

[Benjiinsanity]

I always chuckle so much when people ask 'what guitar is that' on these video. the guitar has absolutely NOTHING to do with the playing or even the sound. You think if you had that guitar you'd be able to play like that or sound like that? You've no chance.

[aragon667]

@Benjiinsanity it has nothing to do with people thinking they can play like that if they have the guitar you sound like an idiot. some people just like the way the guitar looks and might want one. and the guitar has a definite factor on how things will sound when you play them.

[Benjiinsanity]

@aragon667 It's hard for me to take offence at you calling me an idiot when it's pretty obvious from your comment that you don't have a clue what you're talking about.

[aragon667]

@Benjiinsanity ya becasue i havnt been playing for 6 years nor do i have a takamine myself and also a martin and a fender telecaster. i have also had some shity guitars and the sound is different on all of them

[marcussmith2006]

@Benjiinsanity so right... if he puts that guitar down... there is no sound... it is not the guitar.. it is him and the guitar, be it a Yamaha, Taylor, Maton or Martin, if he with guitar, he is making beautiful music. If you like this guy (and haven't all ready) check out Adam Rafferty, he is awesome guitarist and a thoughtly cool guy.... :)

[guitarrhythymfool]

@marcussmith2006 You can't deny, however, that different guitars produce different tones. My Ibanez Zebrawood produces a dramatically different tone than my friend's Martin, which is again different from my other friend's Takamine.

Construction, woods, strings, and quality all have a hand in how a guitar will sound.

[Scalpaxos]

Amazing ! Thank you for sharing this !

[mxerforjesus]

He gets like me when he heres good music he gets giddy and smiles and can't sing it's so good, I wish I could meet him! He's so amazing I've got a man crush! Haha, I wish he would sing he's so talented, if he touched someone they would automatically be good at any instrument in the world

[dustandgerms]

gotta love the costumes :))

[belgrave21]

i just got hard on :)

[RonanMcArdle]

A thing of beauty....



[acdczeppelinhalen1]

What model guitar is this?

[msowolfy]

@acdczeppelinhalen1 a takamine i think

[daniel2210sk8]

ＳＨＵＴ　ＵＰ　ＡＮＤ　ＥＮＪＯＹ　ＴＨＥ　ＭＵＳＩＣ！

[gzwbyc]

To keep from showing off he plays it using one hand. But he can actually play it just by thinking about it.

[clint030]

driving a fast car with iggy playing next 2 me respect the man he is so good with that guitar

[DiscoStew2011]

if you close your eyes its like tracy chapman is singing in guitar =)

[Kazarr88]

I used to play like Igor until I took a bullet to my pinky.. :(

[gamercdl123]

Anyone else get goosebumps from this song?

[Bubunya]

Great song, great cover...

It would be interesting to get them both - Tracy & Igor - on the same stage...

[BadangBadizzy]

@Skizza20 its steel string

[BadangBadizzy]

Skizza20.. He uses a steel string in majority of songs. Even this song. How do i know this. I asked his son!

[hahaurmno]

i swear i heard the guitar sing 0_o

[BBQSauwce]

The guitar is singing to me !

[frozenyoghurtify]

[dzakkone]

I would love to see Igor on one of the shows like X factor or Britain got Talent, just to see how their jaws drop when he plays ...

[Eddyk29]

@dzakkone him going on x factor would insult him. He is in a different league ha ha !

[FCBsucksx]

@Eddyk29 LMFAO

[HarmFlo]

@dzakkone .. no, he's to good for shit shows like that

[gajsva]

[allblacks5455]

Why dont you Make your own songs? You could create Master pieces!

[rafadutrarochinha]

As the angels would play ... It is always wonderful to see a guitar being played this way. You just gain a fan here in Brazil.

[liquidsnake1959]

Igor built the hospital he was born in.

[tommau1]

Thank you very much for posting these videos of Igor. Another great performance....WOW.

[PrezesArturro]

you are a god to me

[kiwilaka]

I like the beard^^

Well played, I <3 your music

all of it ;-)

[weefeatures]

Michelangelo is the Igor Presnyakov of art

[norwaycup93]

honestly, I feel a little moved! Great job!

[glwesten]

Or the Wayne Gretzky of guitar.

[justnikki5221]

@glwesten No sir.... Michael Jordan's the Igor Presnyakov of basketball!!

[DontRunWithDaScissor]

He's like the Michael Jordan of guitar.

[MMIceStar]

WHY? not Derge STRINGS! О_О

[bigrafa99]

i think igor should sing more!!! thumbs up if you agree

[StateCollapse]

Igor owns the shit outta the place!

[Phughy]

So much respect for you sir, you got yourself a new subscriber!

[SeriogiNhere]

how fcking retarded you have to be, to miss like button and press dislike on Igor's video????

[xXKFITZY2Xx]

igor a fast car, now we can stay here and live and die this way...

[eurodancer987]

playing with one hand ;) = boss

[zucoso123]

WARNING: don't imitate this in home

[gypsy43]

fantastic as always xxxooo!

[ili0000]

What happened with the S-W-A-G thing?? Something we asians got?? What happened with that. So you people see what a true talent is. Not only asians are talented. Igor is the proof.

I love Igor! You are the best guitarist i've ever heard in my entire life. Keep it up! I hope you'll be the biggest star on Youtube. These nigahiga or kevjumba things sucks! You are the real channel which should have most support.

- Ilhan PEACE!

[homedog07]

anyone know where i can find tabs or sheet music of this arrangement

[igordias619]

oh man are you fucking kidding me ? , you play all musics of my kid time , man you awesome !

[theulmmett]

Much better than original!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[jabberpie]

I do love your interepretations. Don't want to spoil your fun, but I hope you go back to doing strictly instrumental covers, at least for half your videos. A cover of the hit Tren Al Sur by Los Prisioneros would be awesome, btw...

[68drip]

Nice one !!! Have a look at Pete Kent's version, it's good as well.

[LordDarts]

@68drip Best version still is Boyce Avenue

[eigenaarbob]

3:00 - 3:10 shivers down my spine. so good

[bullham]

hah I have triplets and they are all called Igor

[Skizza20]

I was watching the intro and thinking, "That's not much different than the way I play it..." and then I realized that he was only using his left hand.

[mikegraffam]

@Skizza20 He uses nylon stringed acoustic electric classical guitar. Nylon strings are very soft and it is very easy to punch the strings left handed. Not to take away from Igor's skill or anything.. but there it is.

[ZeJubjub]

Igor - Acoustic Rhythm Guitar

Jimi Hendrix - Lead Guitar

Chuck Noris - Drums / Bass Guitar / Vocal / Violin and Banjo all at the same time.

Greatest Band in the Universe.

[Own3dRunescaper]

@ZeJubjub omfg !!! you misspelled Chuck Norris !!!!!!! better run for ur life..

[ZeJubjub]

@Own3dRunescaper There is no use in running.....the moment i pressed the post button my laptop exploded.

[keshafee]

I went to your cdbaby page and didn't see a link for a physical cd... Where could I find that? I want to hold it in my hands!!!!!

[MrBorcanel]

Who wants tabs ??

102243 - click - 29994-24095 - backflip - 939

[bowwave59]

[Haetith]

Love the way you play, and I also love the way you sing. That's pure art.

IMO.

[madfortrad5958]

brilliant video

[thelyricator]

igor presynakov- is pronounced-- "orgasm"

[AprilWilliamSmusic]

Your talent is amazing, you are by far the best guitar I've heard

[CatGoesBOOM]

[leegarner10hotmail]

Do that Last Friday Night Song

[aligous]

[DeLuuukk]

Dude,

You are my new hero!

[RIIIIIIITAA]

14 people are ... JUST JEALOUS !!! :)

[Left2GameLTU]

*insert number of dislikes here* are butt-hurt

[ZADIRA16]

игореха!!!!!!! молодец ЧуВаааааааааааааааааааааак!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!

[jpettersaub]

My opinion why he's such a amazing guitarist, is because his brain is special in the way that when he heares a song his brain recognizes the different tunes in the melody, and he knows the different tunes a guitar can make when he plays the different strings, so he can instantly play it on the guitar. He have extreme body controll to manage this, and it is all in his brain. I'll bet my ass that he would be an AMAZING piaonist as well. I have friend that is like this :)

But he plays the piano

[MultiMortal]

iGor Doesnt play his guitar *now u must thinking "haha the guittar plays igor"*, but no, if u think better he actualy play his guittar.

This is how people say, in russia, iGor hunts u.

[eyeruntrails]

You don't need a tab! Watch his fingers. If you are mere mortal like the rest of us you can start by practicing now and finish..never

[jaws5263]

how the hell does he know how to play so many songs!!! it would take me like half a year to perfect this song!!!

[deemsbeauty]

Doing a of cover of My Chemical Romance, I would love that :D

[lollen96qzx]

I WOULD KILL TO GET THIS TAB!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ehofas]

@lollen96qzx Chuck Norris could tab it but i doubt if he needs someone killed

[becrazed]

Man walks up to the pearly gates and is greeted by st peter, he sees a man holding an acoustic guitar over the threshold jumping and laughing in a state of ectasy... Man asks st peter why hes so happy? St Peter replies 'oh thats just God, he thinks hes Igor Presnyakov'.....

[fabaowar79]

GREAT,GREAT,GREAT, OH MY GOD!!!

[HarmFlo]

[maguizzzzzzi]

[erangeljriii]

[etidbury]

[DarkCreatorn]

[thomaslund97]

How can somebody dislike something this beautiful?!?!?!?!?!

[fizal00]

Perfect one bro!

[mrpolaroid123]

I love the way on almost all his videos, he gets half way through without singing, then just can't resist but to do the chorus.....The guys awesome....

[mrglenn66]

Our man, Iggy. Rockin' the skull cap!!!

I have a feeling Igor came out of the womb picking a tiny guitar.....

[wagsbass]

vow

[theycallmenavid]

the more i watch igor, the more i admire how incredible a guitar can really sound

[masterraj1]

he is actually a robot !!!!



[dj6ful]

[MisterBoswell]

Hey Igor, can you do a cover of 'Why Georgia' by John Mayer? Or a cover of 'Crash Into Me' by Dave Matthews?
