  • @Shezonn cool!

    

  • This is my favourite thing in the world ever. 

  • muito bom very good

  • I know. His face is like: I'd like to see you beat this.

    And no one can.

  • @bairh Maybe Santana? :P

  • I like this one better - makes me feel like I am present to a performance. the 2010 version is for a close-eye listening, lol. love them both, lol.

  • Haha, your face is real funny xD

  • I noticed a looped video :) 2:01 & 3:43. I'm not being negative! You're awsome!

  • You arereally pretty in glasses :D

  • Can someone tab that? :( Greatest piece he ever played imo.

  • @gangsterbummer i think the most evovled and fuerte

  • His face is like "yeah i like to see you do this"

  • John clarke ! How have you been doing? hope good. I have been following your music for the last 2 years or more. when your website was in its starting stages I think. and life has been getting in the way a bit of my guitar! but do you suggest any excersices for the left hand? it cant keep up with you rsong on the riffs, the right hand is strong and fine. but the fingers of the left arent accurate or fast enough. . . any ideas anyone?

  • @atgblue1 best stuff to begin with is just chromatic exercises, alternating strings, ascending and descending, and using different fingers play the scale (i &m, m&a)..it's a simple exercise that's a bit difficult to describe but I'd imagine you could find an example of something like it somewhere online

  • totally caught me off guard :) sick shreds and silly video :)

  • Bravo!!!!!!!!

  • hahaha this one is so funny xD i love how he gets into it :]

  • @Harmonikz y :D

  • cam yuh use a normal acoustic guitar to play spanish music ?

  • you could, but classical guitar sounds MUCH better, and it feels much better to play ;]

  • Y OLEE JOHN!!!!

  • Wow !

  • @moistdelux34 Yeah looks like half nylon and half metal, thats classical isnt it?

  • no he's using regular classical strings.

  • I love this song! I love how you can see his passion for the guitar and how much fun he has playing it. I love all of your songs, there incredible and I hope to play my guitar like that one day and btw your also very good looking :P . Good Job!

  • ANY ONE KNOWS THE TABS?

  • yeah go to the description

  • sounds really nice. kinda sounds like your 'most evolved' very similar sounding and upbeat. makes you feel good.

  • I love it!!! Agree with Miriam " AMAZING!!!!! "

  • Amazing.!

  • wow q  bello los2

  • I noticed that you have similar strumming pattern for your songs. I'm not complaining, they are all good in their own way. But I hope to see some different strumming patterns in your future songs.

  • I agree. If you listen to two or three of his songs, they start to sound the same. A lot of skill there, though

  • I've always been fond of varieties, that's all. That way it's refreshing.

  • you are the best one I come from Germany and hear your music everybody meet here, this calms me totally

  • like 4 of your songs have same strumming technique. :P but they all are nice!

  • it's amazing

  • where are the tabs?

  • I really enjoyed you playing. you are very good. :)

  • @DaughterOfRa6

    They are awesome. :3

  • @DaughterOfRa6 same here i started using a classical guitar because it was easier on the fingers guitar 3 years ago didnt know about this sort of music and found it because of john clarke and its fun to play

  • I had the chance to see this talented and very handsome man playing live last week in beautiful Fishermans Wharf in San Francisco. I took a little pause to listen to him and bought the 2 CD's, such talent!

  • Is he from SF?? i would love to see this guy play live..

  • Come to Spain and you could hear flamenco or spanish guitar live whenever you want!

    if u like this, listen "Paco de Lucia", the song "entre dos aguas". Bye!!!

  • geil eimfach nur geil der hammer

  • U R THE KEWLEST GUY EVER

  • Does anyone know what this style os song is called? I tried to download from itunes and other sites classis spanish songs, but they are all sad and dont have this nice rythm, so, does anyone know how it is called?

  • Try with Rumba!

  • try Flamenco too!

  • hej,everything what he is playing is really great..full with passion...i like it..and i am rating with all the 5 stars :-)

  • Very beautiful and lively.

  • not bad

  • Great.. can i call u? :P

  • love this song!!! so awesome!

  • well, all I can say is, dude...... get used to criticism! Because I''ll say again, It's not about your face, itá about the music! Still, if you think away the errors, it might even sound nice

  • gr8

  • "un tren" is a Spanish word... That means "A Train" in English, and "Um Trem" in Brazilian... I'm Brazilian :)

  • Comment removed

  • hermoso!! like ever, i men: beutifull, great, amazing

  • "un tren" means "a train" in Romanian...if someone`s curious :)

  • the guy with the two videos with over 10 million views! your being an ass

  • dude, he is dancing (kinda sorta) and playing music for u...FOR FREE, what more do you want?

  • buy it you cheap ass

  • great!

  • lol I watch a lot of these videos but when this one cuts to his face where he is looking at you honestly I am kind of creeped out. It is like seduction via youtube with guitar seronade

  • Ok

    omfg..

    Really.

    Nice playing and all.

    but these "effects" gotta stop man.

    Im losing respect lol

  • hey if u culd get back to me n let me knw how long it took u to learn how to play liek that so i have a idea of how long itd take me id appericiate it :)

  • Depending on you current level and how much you practice, it could be years or months.

  • i just realized that part of this kinda sounds hawaiian, u know... ukulele, a little?

  • incredible! nicely done!

  • how is he doing the tapping coz i cant quite make it out on the video his strumming hands all blurred

  • the tapping is probly with his foot, or recorded seperatly, he does a little tapping with his strumming hand, but not all the tapping you hear is from his strumming hand

  • You're right indeed, around 0.52 you can still hear tapping when his hand isn't

  • yeah, but none the less, still some great playing

  • He uses his feet as well, watch some other videos by him.

  • wowowowow nice!!

  • Very good, or excellent, you do a great justice ma man

  • you are amazing!

  • now your look is veriy nice with glasse man you play only just lick the way how we do it its real nice man awsom grites guitarist i hope you have a lucky fiture

  • How do i go about learning the spanish guitar

  • thats so nise to hear

  • Oh guy your music is amazing, very good!!!

  • so this song is written by you???

  • Awesome... thanks alot

  • Wow! I love it!

  • wow i like ur style

  • you are the best I think mate :>)xXx

  • i liked it very much!!

  • Awesome!!

  • thanks alot cyreath i will do my best

  • Skip past the first 32 seconds and you'll get what you're looking for if I'm guessing you like what John plays. aka complexity and richness made to look simple :)

    This one's a hidden gem and the intro is why I guess it's lower viewing than the others. Nice work on the video John, a real professional touch to this one.

  • people do you think i can learn guitar???

  • Yes! But accept it will take years. Not days or weeks or months. The slow road to mastery :) Read 'Mastery' by George Leonard and the struggle will become a pleasure.

  • dude ur doing like its so easy it look so hard

  • lool woop, i thought i was goin mad for a sec :D

  • Its SPANISH for 'a train' lol

    Seen as he's playing Spanish guitar, I would hazard a guess that he is using it for its Spanish meaning lol..

    It may be Romanian too lol i duno

  • lol sorry... yeah it`s both romonian and spanish :)

    :)

  • yay, thought all those years studying spanish were worthless. :O

    lol

    :)

  • do you know what the title means? :) it`s actually in Romanian.. (a train)
