[Reaper9689]

[camtheman3x6]

[oracelerapeur]

Dave Grohl at the drum ?

[GuitarFang]

@oracelerapeur I am pretty sure that is Dave drumming, he is even chewing gum. So I say 97% chance it is.

[kolanful]

I want him to be my Granddad :P

[AnimeKosplay]

Wow he's awesome as ever, not only is he a lefty, he's playing a Strat strung upside down o.0 Way under-appreciated musician. Anybody else think Dick Dale and Anthony Hopkins could be twins?? =)

[123kyriakos]

@americanu197 haha u realy funny but the thing that we don't have works how you connected with what i say . Because we don't have money that dosn't mean that we don't have life and when we have life and friends we r happy as you can never imagine . So i suggest you to stay and live as you want and live your life.

[americanu197]

[22faka]

@MrNorthernMan thats dick dale, he is the autor of the song

[Petourakis]

@22faka he is not the autor, the song is a greek song ( rebetik ).

[vanilla90210]

it is a left handed guitar... strung like a right handed guitar... played like a left handed guitar.. more than likely he didn't have a left handed guitar when he learned how to play so he learned on a right handed upside down... fast forward to being able to buy a left handed guitar now... but having the string it the way he learned...

[wolfleadr51]

This is pure, refined, weapons-grade plutonium music.

[Alexandros93d]

[dogbuttface]

@3984ja Lol That's called reverse stringing, but its a left handed guitar. You don't call it "playing upside-down"

[superiorbasterd]

@dogbuttface No, its not says Jimmy Hendrix. lol.

[dancingzira]

@superiorbasterd Yeah it is reverse strung. You look closer. ;)

[superiorbasterd]

@dancingzira that's what my first comment is all about !!!!

[vanilla90210]

@dogbuttface you fail too.... it's left handed but..... it's strung upside down....

[dogbuttface]

@vanilla90210 Lol its called reverse stringing, look at my older comment. So yeah, its just you who fails. "strung upside down" wow is that even a term? Double Whammy Fail

[smiqued12]

[lewnsamos]

aaa this song wrote on 1927!!

[lewnsamos]

press on youtube misirlou bouzouki version and listen the original version

[lewnsamos]

misirlou is a greek song and wrote i think in 1922 with bouzouki i am greek and i know some things this song you listend is 100% greek and now it is hip hop jaz rock classic music and our greek music λαΪ κο και ρεμπετικο (laiko and rebetiko);)

[makkusu071291]

@lewnsamos sounds too different to compare the greek song with this song

[thomstokken]

[enkhboldyadamjav66]

[Sggirnitram]

@mnod He's not a lefty!!!!! He's so fucking good at guitar that he plays left handed to get a different sound and doesn't even re-string it!!!! Look at the strings, the thick ones are on the bottom, that shit is practically impossible, hands down this guy is ridiculously great

[mnoed]

[marlboromike2100]

Grandpa's got coke and Viagra again so he can let the guitar stand via no hands... god this guys insane lol.

[0klahomajackson]

who cares about Black eyed peas, while this song is also theft by Dick Dale. I wonder when people are going to start to acknowledge that this song is a traditional Greek Rembetiko Song called "Misirlou" or "Miserlou"played on a Bouzouki around 100 years ago already, and its about an egyptian girl (Egypt=Misr in arabic) Misirllou= Egyptian girl (in greek)... Due to missing copyrights as always at Greeks, thats why Greece faces economic problems. Greece's main export is culture, and thats 4 free..

[SlavoDaGreasy]

Lyrics?

[kineticfuzz]

@SlavoDaGreasy the perception from some people is oh he is just picking really fast. the reality is unlike the beach boys and many other surf musicians dick actually was a surfer and he also raised many exotic animals such as big cats trying to help protect those animals from extinction. the energy from what is in dicks music is the pure power of nature such as the pounding surf or a lions roar so there is actually a lot more raw feeling and emotion in his music the a lot of bands with lyrics.

[SlavoDaGreasy]

@kineticfuzz Well, thank you for that, was just making a lame joke really. I actually do quite enjoy this and understand the point you are trying to make, hell this was the first song I taught myself to play on guitar.

[MrFlyguy124]

@SlavoDaGreasy there aren't any >:D

[fuhrer25724]

کس ننه بلک آید پیس!

[masternaruto12223]

black eyed peas copy this song but in rap version

[blablabloly]

Oh Fuck! This is MINDBLOWING!!!

[Skac01]

do they speak English in What?!

[USMCCowboy360]

To everyone who loves this song. The black eyed peas killed it. We must avenge the original song

[Benjy3634]

@HoraciogomezwaIter Well this dude didn't originate the tune either, so....

[RiboPS3]

TAXI!!

[Demonman26]

Dick Dale. Still a badass.

[wheresthecorporal]

the thing that amazes me is that as a left handed guitarist, he not only plays it upside down, but learns to do every song he knows with the strings the wrong way round, that waould be such a bitch, might help the lower e on this song, but still is probably one of the best guitarists on earth

[kineticfuzz]

@wheresthecorporal not to mention that his strings are 16-60 gage strings while he is playing like that and wound very tightly. I have seen guitar players try playing his guitar backstage at shows and say shit this hurts my wrist how do you not bend the neck and dick says I just push down really hard while I'm playing. that is how he gets that deep thick sound.

[YassineEdouiri]

hers the originale song : LW6qGy3RtwY&feature=related

[YassineEdouiri]

The song was first performed by the Michalis Patrinos rebetiko band in Athens, Greece in 1927. (a style that originated with the Greek refugees from Asia Minor in Turkey) ... named the song Mısırlı or Misirlou which means an Egyptian Muslim girl

[Fabulongosho]

i'm proud i'm lefty!



[afpagano88]

@Fabulongosho wats makes this crazy, is no that he's lefty, but hes got the guitar strung backwards from low to high. cool stuff

[ccaian1]

WTF

black eye peas were only sampling from this song, they didn't steal'

and in case anyone is interested misirlou is a cover done by dick dale of a classic Egyptian song called misirlou (same name )

[suavewolf1994]

is anyone else not amazed by not only dick dale, but that beast ass fuck drummer?!

[RegginGib001]

[AQWassassincread]

[FALCOR1220]
