  • Orianthi would you marry me if I proposed out of the blue??!?? Lol i love how u play your my idol has been and will forever be!;)

  • very nice! you rock

  • ok so you hate steve vai... and you dont like orianthi's playing..you play hippie acoustic music.. i am a little confused on why you are listening to this in the first place then? all i am saying is the girl has flow shes smokin man! steve vai not my fav i dont own any albums but the man has flow. orianthi is a damn good guitar player and to top it off she is a drop dead gorgeous aussie girl! and i did listen to your music its acoustic not real melodic, i dig andy mckee but i dunno man lol

  • @tatertothotdishify keep on playing but like mommy said if you dont have anything nice to say then dont say anything at all....... why dont you go listen to mehran a iranian guitar player mellow smooth more up your alley!

  • She is awesome! Beautiful too. She knows how to play guitar...does she know how to start a fire? This video certainly lit mine.

  • Rock my socks Ori :)

    So is this a pos. 1 or pos. 4 lick? (D or A?)

  • I respect her and all, I mean she is a famous guitarist. But I just hate her town and style, I just can't get into it. It seems to be just a little to....twitchy or frenetic to me.

  • @TheRealrocker74 and that's supposed to say tone***

  • @TheRealrocker74 ok ok i just gotta ask how the fuck is her style twitchy? she plays like steve vai like BUTTER uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh have you listened to your music? thats twitchy, you're just jealous cuz shes prettier then you ;)

  • @tatertothotdishify This comment makes perfect sense because I HATE steve vai too. The most over estimated guitarist of this generation. and because she's prettier than me? I'm a guy, so that really doesn't make to much sense. I honestly don't think you've listened to my music because it's anything but twitchy. I pride myself on being a melodic player. Especially on vibrato, listen to hers then mine. Hers is fast and not easy to listen too. I have developed a good technique for it.

  • so nice of u to teach people !

    ur amazing

  • I'm having a hard time with that lick baby. I wish she'd move in a little closer and break it down for me nice and slow with the fingers barely moving. Go gentle I find this hard.

  • So it's tiriririittuririritutiuiuurirt­uii... So I'll break it down for ya tirriirutiriruriutieuuttiututu­iii... So it's turituirutirirritueiutrirtutii­i... So I'll just get a little bit closer so you can.. tituriutrirutirututuiiii... So it's tituriutirtutirituututuii... -OH OKAY, I GOT IT.-

  • @vickrdable GAHAHHAAHHAHAHAAHAHAH!!!

  • @vickrdable Fucking brilliant :P

  • o yes go baby feel like play w you baby fuckin play".... HANG OF YOURSELF hard time baby o yes baby hard time baby o yes baby

  • @coolfrog7 o yes go baby feel like play w you baby fuckin play".... HANG OF YOURSELF hard time baby o yes baby hard time baby o yes baby

  • muito linda !! Brazil : )

  • Now I get it , I hate this female guitarist because she's austrailian.

    I don't normaly dispise austrailians so thats a bit odd for me.

    and this is no break down of anything , this is her doing a lick and expecting everybody to get it.

    I think it's because she smiles too much , yep thats whats eatin me , she smiles too damn much and tries to look soulful

    I hate theatrics , just play the damn guitar , you don't see buckethead making these kinds of mistakes.

    thats why he's number 1

  • @azkeyz Little afraid of female competition?

  • still a little to beast for or should i say i just aint that great

  • Jan 22nd the birthday I share with this goddess of rock. Damn!

  • Brake that down a little more babe. Thanks. LOVE YOU♥♥♥

  • i think these videos are meant for musical prodigies like herself haha, definatly not for beginner guitar players such as myself. i cant even consider myself a guitar player after watching this haha :P

  • I Love You Orianthi! :) The best.

  • what was the song at the beginning? :o

  • @TheCasualTea,

    That's the title song of her 1st album, Violet Journey. The entire album rocks hard.

  • @TheCasualTea ii think its highly strung

  • @TheCasualTea It's Violet Journey :) Great song

  • Ori!

  • I would like some "Ori" cookies lol instead of Oreo Cookies ANYDAY

  • that is not breaking it down. what a dimwit.

  • She's fantastic! But it would really help if she gave you more instructions. She doesn't tell you what the rest of the riff is. Are you just supposed to guess?

  • @JaneJokerCroft YES! Duh....

  • @tyewalkerfm1 Whatever!

  • Such an unbelievable tone.

  • muito bom

  • Wow...fantastic....can you take a few years out and teach me? ;-)

  • More slowing please or a tab ? ^^''

  • In backround, it is Yamaha HS-50M reference monitors? I have HS50 too. :-)

  • Your solos R much more interesting than your songs! =) Please play lots of solo stuff - like instrumentals or something. Your female perspective is interesting - kind of reminds me of Rev Beach in the 'unrepeatability' department.

  • thought i just play around and play alot thts wit she said

  • I like this super sharp and powerful tone! What amp does she use?

  • @symphonicmind87 In 1 of her live videos it loox like she uses a Mesa amp =) Really thought her tone would B even better if she used an SG-style guitar through a Laney - such as thus:

    HIM - Wicked Game [Finnish Version] - 1996

    watch?v=V5kfZlzc2Hk

    Same goes 4 Steve Vai - he should stop using those krap 'balsajunk' Ibanez guitars. They sound like poop compared 2 this.

  • @Deathrape2001 Hi, thanks for your answer. Her tone is very bright, deep and strongs. I believe it comes from her guitar and pickup choice very much. Do you think a JB would be great one for this kind of tone?

  • @symphonicmind87 The best tone by far is an SG style guitar with chrome-cover alnico pickups into a Laney tube amp. It doesn't need 2 B Gibson, just set-neck all mahogany =) Ori's tone is NOT the best U can get, & certainly not 4 the $, as PRS is INSANELY overpriced. The Laney with the SG thing gives all the scream & chunk of other fancy setups, but with the advantage of very detailed & complex mids & stuff =D Ori would sound even BETTER if she used that setup.

  • @symphonicmind87 U know I think you're missing another important thing here, & this is that Orianthi should do pornos =] She's so pretty! U know, she could also do nude performances - but only on DVD! So, that will get people buying those spinners 4 sure! She could maybe sing some songs while getting rammed by a few guys @ once, & other kewl stuff 2 feed all our hungry senses.

  • @symphonicmind87

    I believe she runs ENGL Special Edition (that is the name -- it is a production amp) amps. Believe they run like $4k for a head unit. Very high end amps. Maybe a *little* over-kill, but she has the money.

  • @leftfacedown That, and the fact that she probably does'nt pay for them :)

  • @leftfacedown Thank you so much! THat price will destroy my pocket! T_T

  • I in love you ;)

  • i love u

    

  • this was just two months before he died

  • I recognize this outfit from "This Is It"!

  • omggg shes playing too fast!

  • How many guitars do u have?? :/

  • esee video é muito massa... god hand my cryse.....

  • You're not a bad teacher, you just don't know what students need. Check out the old Guitar Express videos for a great example of how to teach guitar. Great playing -- keep it up.

  • A female Hendrix . . . go girl . . . you are an ass kicker!!!

  • I love this riff. :)

  • i love u!

    but...

    i cant play like thah u,u

  • yeah its definately lydian mode lol. when i heard it, i was like "she been hanging around Vai too long" haha.

  • tabs are here .. watch?v=kYReEc9lpNc

  • I LOVE YOU

  • Again, beautiful!!! Big fan, here.

  • Way to break it down Ori! Your fingers were invisible! >.>"

  • here mouth is beautiful if you know what i mean ;)

  • orianthi panagaris is the best guitarrista (woman) que he conocido en toda my live...

    and tengo mas que claro que my first son se llamara orianthi en honor a ella.

    thank for ser quien eres. I ♥ love. ♫♥

  • I'm a happy man because I can take lessons from one of the greatest guitarists in the world...

  • You all need to check out shredmeister0303 on YouTube.. another Australian buddy of mine.. he's a freak!! oh and check out my videos too!!

  • this is a great example of how many artist should act. She's really down to earth, and she inspires humility. more than her looks, she's got great talent. i give you props girl....

  • what amp do U use? :) Know You what amp Santana's have? ;) PRS is cool but too expensive :( i have Ibanez SZR520 and LINE6 Spider III 15W combo amp ;/

  • Ori I love what you do Im a huge fan I think ur awsome but ur very hard to follow I loos you as soon as ur fingers start moving I understand you start on E on the 13th fret but where it gos from there IDK

  • @Krazy6555 Use your ears. Take it a note at a time.

  • @Krazy6555 is based around F lydian if that helps

  • Very nice Ori, I love your riff !! :-)

  • Sounds good... but I don't have a clue how to play the lick..

  • Me he fijado que tocas la guitarra, tanto para un lado como para el otro verdad?

  • that outfit looks verry familiar....did she wear that in This Is It...???

  • LOL at her teaching style. Way to break it down.

  • love the way u teach .. cut the crap . just play.. we use our ears to learn

  • ae, muito boa a aula de guitar espero q eu conhesa vc um dia. rsrsrs tchau.....

  • I think it's cool how she can dedicate her time to break down riffs for her fans.. just sayin ;]

  • @XxFallenAngelzX13 yes she the nicest person ever

  • great riff ORI i love playing aroud with it thanks mate

  • what happened to this "run of the week" thing? i dug the shiz out of it and it only went for like two weeks.

  • She got famous.... that's what happened.  She is WAY busy now.

  • i hear ya. She is blowing up something serious.

  • @ejchambers shes blowin my dick...

  • @SoCalStringPlyr no, she's still doing them. lol

  • Kinda busay, k-kinda busay!

  • @SoCalStringPlyr VERY true. If I were her, I probably wouldn't have it in me to dedicate SO much time to a fanbase, and would probably wind up only answering an occasional question, posting the odd "Cheers, heres whats up" vid when theres news to be told.

    This is the kind of thing that everybody warns about with hitting it big. Taking care of a fanbase can sometimes run into your schedule with shows if you let it.

    And then everyone says this is what agents are for. To run your fanbase for you.

  • Great run... Love your sound..

  • This girl really does ROCK !!!

    Love the new music video with STEVE VAI

    Highly Strung

    For The Love Of God she is the new guitar hero

    Orianthi guitar

  • Can I just say that I love you...yea it sounds kinda creepy but damn it it's true. You are just simply awesome.

  • thanks!! i need it

  • Bravo kouklitsa mou eisai ena oneiro!!!! Real proud of you

    You Rock!!!!

  • Hey Ori I'm trying to exand my guitar playing skills..lol I have been playing for a couple years now but I'm teaching myself so these vids are really helpful. Thanks :)

  • ORI. SUPER HOTT. SUPER TALENTED. what could get any better than that?

  • Violet Journey right?(the song at the begeinung) I just know it is

  • @ktmdan71 you're exactly right! Learn your scales people and quit being dependent on tablature!

  • uhhh im a beginner soo i didn't catch that.....Tabs would help

  • Hey Orianthi, I'm having a hard time figuring out the lick played in the intro to your awesome song Drive Away, right after the D chord before going back to the Em, so I was wondering if you could post a video braking it down. If someone else would like to post a video that would also be most appreciated. Love your work Orianthi, keep it up!

  • jimi hendrix wuld have loved ori!!!

  • prs guitars are totally versatile, beautiful, and sound great i dont what yall are talking about.

  • woah.....you are amazing! i wana get a new guitar but i wanted to know what kind of guitar you play! i really like the sound of it! please reply- gianna:)

  • prs (paul reed smith) guitar, the way to go, i'm savin up for a custom 22

  • PRS is not the way to go. You can get much more quality and versatility with other brands. Did I mention price...?

  • other brands such as.....? I play a telecaster and I feel the c22 is a much better guitar.

  • "telecaster" is too generic. Get an American Fender tele and tell me its not great. That is, if you want tele sound. If you just want to shred then there's no substitute but Jackson, Schecter, or ESP. Much cheaper than PRS, wider selection of body styles, paint jobs, and CHEAPER.

  • You may play well, but you're no good of a teacher. Telling watchers the first fret and then just playing it doesn't help at all. Maybe throw a tab on the video? maybe play note by note SLOWLY. By slowly I mean what a less able player may be able to discern note to note what you are playing easily.

  • learn your scales good and you won't need tabs.

  • Learning scales just doesn't cut it for some guitarists. I'm speaking from a teacher perspective, since I am. To me this may be an elementary lick to pick out and master in a matter of minutes but to many guitarists it isn't that easy.

  • @ktmdan71

    You're right :) These are all "just" scalar runs, so if you know your diatonic scales you should be fine!

  • man you can really hear the steve vai influence

  • dedicated. i like that

  • True talent. I just discovered her. Not from MJ's movie but from her single. Im thankful there's at least one up and coming young artists like her that can show people what a real, young musician is.

  • okay nice run but maybe you should try actually explaining it instead of just saying "Okay so.... So uhhm..." and then playing it. i gained nothing from this video

  • man Ori has DSL

  • cool guitar moves

  • You 're a great guitarist and a very beautiful girl.

  • You are lucky orianthi you got to rehearse with Michael Jackson

  • This is waay too fast..iv been trying to work on it for almost half an hour now and i only got half of it!! SLOW DOWN PLZ. xx

  • she is a bad teacher//

  • HOW DO YOU MOVE YOUR FINGERS SO FAST ON THE GUITAR?!?!?!

    Im just learning how to play...... and im really slow..... :P

  • shes not even explaining it properly..

  • Hi Ori me and my wife really love ur style we are a big fan of you since we watched MJ's This is it. Rock on! and continue making great rock n roll music! greetings from Archie and Darlene from Cebu Phillippines.

  • Ori your SO hot!

  • who is the guitarist on the BEAT IT song video?? is that you?

  • no its eddie van halen.

  • I thought M.J. guitarrist was older. Did you play for him since the beginning?

  • Yeah, because a band has never fired, lost, or changed any musician in the group from the day they start playing.

  • @scoobydoob1e what noobs. haha.

  • @changolucky Michael Jackson has had several guitarists, including a lot of featured musicians, such as Eddie Van Halen and Slash, she was just the one picked for the "This is It" tour

  • Jennifer Batten is the girl you're thinking about. Orianthi is only 25, she's been playing since she was six so there's no way she's been with him long (too young). From what I heard he came across her on here and hired her for the This Is It tour after auditioning her. Jennifer Batten is also very amazing, you should look her up.

  • oh is she the girl with the huge blonde hair that used to be with Michael? thanks i've been looking for her not orianthi although orianthi is amazing too.

  • Yea that's her : ) Oh and you're welcome.

  • Jennifer Batten played with MJ at one time. With Hair that was huge and blonde.

  • @XfatalxbritexstarsX that girl ur looking for is called Jeniffer batten

  • When I first saw your video 'According to you' I was completely blown away by your guitar skills...and when I read you've got Greek blood running through your veins...well, I instantly became a fan of yours for life! You are absolutely amazing! Rock on!

  • hi Orianthi. i'm very proud for you because you be descanded from Greece.you are very lucky because you let it be known Michael Jackson.i'm MJs fan and i hope i'll make to you too.

  • how do you get your sound config?

  • You make us australians proud babe..Take care, Enjoy life,An be happy.Remenber these an you will be happy,

  • can u break that down a lil more... i wish i was as good has u

  • @amirbobby

    Yeah it needs to be slower, where does she go from the E 13th fret I am a noob.

  • areon912..when was the last time you got laid?..sooo much angst..shut your stupid cake hole and go back to your video games hater!

  • ummm about a week and a half ago why? and wat does video games have to do with any of this u make no sense. lmfaoo

  • @areon912 dude! stop writing such comments on each of her vids...if u dont like them dont watch them..that simple

    btw i dont want to disappoint u but if you wanna beat her, it means u appreciate her and its far from hate :P and i almost forgat, good luck with the practicing, but be prepared 1 year is just f*cking not enough to reach her level, or even just to have some idea what guitar playing is about...

  • ooo no doubt she's good duhhh i mean shes fantastic duhhh. like u said i wouldnt wanna be like "hey im gonna be better than a four year old" like thats not saying anythingg. im just sayin i desevere it more than she does and i will b better than her im learning so fast its unbelieveable. krazii part my own instructor told me i waz better than average but if wanted to catch her up to her id have to "freeze her in time for 3 years" (asshole lmfaoo)

  • It's nice to see a young up&coming female not acting like a pole dancer on stage...she shreds the guitar and has real talent.

  • That's a great lick. The extra bit of vibrato at the end gives it a nice kick.  Love stuff like this.

  • paul gilbert would dominate ori, but she is still a great guitarist

  • @limoncello182 no synyster is way better than her!

  • i know with the songs AFTERLIFE, SEIZE THE DAY and CRITICAL ACCLAIM solos, theyd blow my mind. But that doesn't mean that Orianthi Can't defeat Syn Gates. Orianthi is only 25 while syn is 29 which means that Orianthi will be better if she grows up.

  • Synyster gates is lame.

  • @reaperofgenocide

    why is he lame? can you rephrase that. Just in case you didn't know, syn gates is mentioned on a guitar magazine that he's included in top 50 world's fastest guitarist!!!

  • Ill only rephrase it because its insulting. Synyster gates imo is mediocre and over rated. Now i honestly dont care about which magazine rated who this or who that. Sure their lists are sometimes good but they arent the hierarchy of great guitarist lists. And if he even is fast, its only one component which is speed. And im sure that their are way more guitarists that top him in speed. Some who arent even famous.

    So not to insult your taste or synyster but i feel he is over rated.

  • fanne altri!!!!! sei troppo brava

  • Cant believe you guys are throwing Paul Gilbert into this....fucking ridiculous

  • I cannot believe that you're throwing Paul Gilbert into this, seriously. They're two different styles, they're incomparable too each other.

  • Someone else mentioned Paul Gilbert.  Not me! I'm just responding.

  • But you're still comparing the two. I apologize for blaming you for mentioning him, but you are still comparing them.

  • Actually thats very true. You cant really compare them even with their different styles. But lets be honest here. By musical standards paul gilbert is a virtuoso. I have yet to see if orianthi is even close to that. Shes still good but does she match up to the technical skill of paul gilbert or the sophisticated songs he writes.

    IMO i rather paul gilbert.

    But thats all it is and all it'll ever be. An opinion!

  • I love the songs! You are the best! Accept me as friend! PLSSS!!!

  • this was helpful! i ahev no idea how to play this

  • Super! Thank you ORIANTHI !

  • Paul Gilbert is better

  • paul gilbert s faster, not necessarily better

  • @gibsonlp1102 definitely better.

  • He have some more time playing than her, doesn't him?

  • hahahahahahah of coarse he is he is not normal but orianthi is just as good in her own style which is very influenced by santana in my opion she is almost just as good as santana
