[Twitchh21]

Smile at 2:13 says it all.

"Man i'm awesome"

[jookieloom]

[siTTinLo420]

Damn Dude,,you fuckin' Ripped that shit...Bravo.

[LetThereBeSolos]

WTB music for this.

[samuelsimmons01]

Please re-record this in hi def, you are the winner

[philondez]

@samuelsimmons01 Search for Ronald Jenkees on iTunes and look for the tribute album. It's all three of his Ronald Jenkees covers in studio quality.

[dunem666]

fking epic!

[ofiron112]

better than the original !

pls upload this in a better quality

[turbodn]

Today I was listening to this song and thought to myself, "This would transcribe to the guitar perfectly!". I took to the interwebs for inspiration and found this... I don't share many things on Google+ or Facebook, but this is going up. Absolutely brilliant.

[GUlTARZAN]

love the vai guitar, i see its being used correctly

[Funkyrocket1]

Excellent! It's not usual that you see the tables turned like this. An originally electronic song covered by a conventionally classic instrument (granted, it's an electric guitar) It's nice to see "good" music being appreciated, not just appreciated if it's the right genre. (Sort of like a comedy winning an oscar)

[ninjabobobo]

That was wicked! :D

[DiFrand]

holy batman is he good!

[VVine]

10,000 views of the views are from me

[FlameRogue1]

[kamienable]

Flowing eargasm!

[00poopmonster]

BAD ASS lol. That was amazing

[damorj01]

[FlyWMU]

Excellent cover! I love the original and think you nailed this version!

[rcroxyosox1]

Pro

[sUnnydUcks123]

if my dad saw this he would weep all over his guitar

[RollerCoasterMan10]

That is pretty damn impressive...

[ashkillsben6]

Lav lavvv laaaaaav it! c:

[Aduleten]

i used to try playing this song... then i took a chord in the eye :( !!!!!

[MrTollyferro]

@kotapaka its a guitar cover of a techno song. Go listen to the original, its crazy

[kotapaka]

I just came to this video after listening to some house/techno but I must say I like it and I'm not even into this style (what's the style BTW?).

[TheGhov]

@kotapaka Ronald Jenkees describes his music as "Electronic Pop."

[ElScarface28]

Holy mother of f*ck !!! oO

[Smalltime008]

Sick!

[baillou2]

I used to play guitar, then I took a Ronald Jenkees cover in the FACE.

[paultelam]

@baillou2 wow, these jokes are spreading quite rapidly lol

[Funkywasabi]

If you want to play this on repeat, just type "repeat" in the URL after "youtube" and before ".com". :D You're welcome :)

[riveraktre]

@Funkywasabi FUCKin ayeee!!! BRO!!! Right on for the share, God damn this saves me hundreds of clicks, lol.

[chocolatefuzzball1]

HOLY SHIT :O

[Crephanatic]

AND I THOUGHT MY GUITAR WAS BADASS......

[afkjkhah]

So very well done, dang!

[OhGreek73]

amazing... simply amazing...

[Saramon]

This is why gay marriage should be legalized...

[christoffer501]

@Saramon LOL best comment ive read for a long time

[Heroreh]

Wow you are skilled my friend. It's tough for a guitar to keep up with Jenkees' piano. You should get in a nice space and record this with some acoustics n sh!t. Nice work

[Mcannon1962]

Ali, it does not appear that you are responding to this thread any longer, but in the off chance you do, can you share where or how you created the accompanying tracks for drums? It does not seem to match the RJ original. I love your cover and your playing.

[MindlessFruit]

Can I put a youtube video on repeat forever? Or find this awesome track in mp3 somewhere?

[Nukebrother]

@MindlessFruit there is a way if ur usin firefox there is a plugin that allows u to set youtube clips on repeat

[NecroKatanaScythe]

Somebody is a ninja

[jimmystarzy]

Baller...

[subtlelapse]

Tabs?



[awheelhead]

you and rj should play this live together

[LiquidPandles]

Great cover and what I love more than anything else is that you seem to be really enjoying yourself while playing. Not stiff like a lot of people worrying about messing up. Just like RJ, just have fun with it and the rest will come.

[bwolmarans]

I bought his album off amazon - worth it for any RJ fan

[dm9910]

i'm pretty confident i could play this but it would take me a ridiculous amount of time to work it out (i'm very slow), it's taken me over an hour for the first couple of seconds! im assuming you worked it out by ear so you won't have the tabs, but if you could write it up and put it on ultimate guitar or something that would be awesome :)

[Grug16]

I found this song via the game Sequence.

[LogiXYZ]

@Grug16 The game squence ?

[TheOriginalNightHawk]

I listen to this song when i look at sunsets. 

[onebigdoor]

love to hear this with the guitar a little hotter in the mix. with YT compression and all the distortion it's hard to pick out your nice playing.

[xLoFeSx]

hey dude, do you have tabs or scores for this song?

[Dedzig]

You done Ronald proud, buddy! Very enjoyable!

[ScarceNightmare]

It would be really cool to see you, and Ronald, playing together. People that actually have a passion for music, and enjoy every moment of it.

[telperionx]

That was fantastic! You are a genius!

[plaidbeige]

I still gave another thumbs up. ;)

[plaidbeige]

YEah,I gotta be that guy. It rocks,great guitarist BUT,it lost alot of it's power somehow. Can't really tell whats going on undernieth anymore. Maybe it what youtube did to the sound. But,to me the all around sound of what was going on along with the big beat was what did it for me. Anyway. Not hating. Like I said....awesome work. Better than I could ever do so,keep it up.

[lanus1401]

im waited this cover a long time. thank you, @alicsibu

[markiskool92]

220 people have no respect for musical talent. well done to the 6,685 people who recognize talent when they see/hear it.

[blackeye09]

i can see this song being in one of those guitar hero or rock band games!!

[arc2078]

chuck norris only need 1 finger to play it on a ukulele with only a bad tune chord

[ShokwaveProductions]

[lilkoopa23]

HELLO YOUTUBES

[darkflame315]

Wow.. So, I was on the book of face, and it had one of those "on this day in 2009" things where it puts your status. Today it was a link to this song. For once facebook did something productive and remind of this... Now I will drown out the thought of having a facebook since 2009 with this song.... for the 3rd time.

[larry365]

@darkflame315 zomg that means you found this song like 5 weeks after it was uploaded, your amazing - thanks for sharing with us :)

[tim154154]

[optimusmatias]

You Are The Best Bro Keep It Going

[DarkenedDZ]

Bravo man...wonderful adaptation!

[Braeden123698745]

[TAz69x]

Ronald hasn't told me yet if he's got into contact with you; I just want to tell you that he LoVES your covers (in the way that Ronald does), and appreciates having an influence on anyone who's inspired by his stuff

peace Ali

[GenTechJ]

@PerfidiousMeridius That's...actually a good idea. Need to double check and see that @alicsibu has a paypal account, but I'm sure he would :)

[WhereFearless]

216 people don't know the difference between a Guitar and Piano.

[jayman420toke]

216 people who found this video hate themselves... seriously.

[MetriXmsk]

Ronald Jenkees is sic, and this is just OWWWWWWWWWWWW

[Lednnar1]

Only 6 383 people are normal ? Oo

[tjs1331]

SICK!!!! 

[haeliusm]

perfect

[Mycophilliac]

Holy Shit. What A Badass.

[GenTechJ]

Will we ever see this awesome music on sources other than iTunes? I personally avoid apple and all related products due to price gouging just for the brand. The only reason this isn't on my mp3 player yet is because there's no alternative to legally purchase this tribute album

[CLaybobMastadon]

@GenTechJ Yes, you do. They're called bittorrent and Soulseek.

[PerfidiousMeridius]

@GenTechJ you could rip it from youtube and send home some money through paypal

[PandaPlaysPunk]

Oh how I wish I could play this on the violin...does anyone know the notes?????

[sambalbei]

can u pls do it again!?



[AQWorldsL9Artic]

[DoomEgg]

My favorite part was 0:01 to 3:24

[PerfidiousMeridius]

@DoomEgg What's your beef brah, the first and last second count haha

[VVine]

@DoomEgg fuckin ay!

[catscratchproduktion]

@DoomEgg loooooooooooolllllll

[abcqwerty]

@DoomEgg You realise that just means it was all equal. When you say that you're only comparing it to itself.

[DoomEgg]

@abcqwerty STFU. Nihilist.

[PandaPlaysPunk]

His hands blurred...

[Neryvice]

Thank you so much.

[MadFlako]

F*CK!!! how am i gonna feel good about by musical abilities when this SoB is pullin that shit off! no offense man, youre fucking AMAIZING!!!

[kamikazefluxe]

That part after 2:50 just gives me chills; that's some awesome and deep playing dude; I really hope you add more in the future....; I'd really like to hear you do the rock and roll part of the duel in Six String Samurai; I bet that would be awesome.
