  • he might as well be raping that guitar....a beautiful kind of rape

  • THUMBS DOWN FOR COMMERCIALS!!! YOUTUBE YOU'VE RUINED MY PLAYLISTS!

  • i love antoine, he's probably my favorite solo guitarist, but i'm not too big on this song. I'm not sure what it is about it, i just feel like it's a bit too "busy".

  • tabs must look like the matrix code :P

  • just saying. if you ever have the ability to play this, you dont need tabs. so please stop asking.

  • @TheFunkyCriminal Not necessarily.

  • @TheFunkyCriminal i've found tabs helpful for a number of antoine and andy mckee songs. Admittedly i don't rely on the tabs completely, but they still help! :)

  • Need...tabs...now

  • Random Citizen sees Antoine Dufour; he thinks: " he's pretty good"

    Experienced Guitarist sees Antoine Dufour; he thinks: "HOLY FRICK, HE"S GOOD!"

  • Tuning please??? 

  • @TomDodsonMusic CGCFBbD

  • @philbphoto Thanks :)

  • @TomDodsonMusic

  • @Tuloisboss Thanks, the album version is CGCFBbD though

  • my frames were spiking... your too fast for computers. :D

  • IT'S LIKE A REMIX BETWEEN HIS SONGS AND ANDY MCKEE!! AWSOME!!!! YOU ROCK ANTOINE DUFOUR

  • Sounds a little bit like Phil Keaggy . I like it. I just get caught up in it.

  • ITS THE HANDKERCHIEF IT'S MAGIC IT HAS TO BE IT!!! 

  • One of the best guitarist alive. Need I say more?

  • @debo17453 IDIOT !!!

  • 26 Justin Bieber fans disliked this...typical people who don't understand what real music is

  • @TheCoachAiree whoa i cant like justin bieber AND antoine?

  • @poisenbery Bieber has NO talent, Antoine Dufour does

  • i knew it..this man exhales pure soulful music.

  • @elshwanko So does my ass.

  • haha his guitar is thinking "WTF IS HAPPENING TO ME!''

  • @twommie hahahaha thats funny dude!" 

  • @twommie good, clean, rape XD

  • @chazzable rape at the best way you can have it

  • how is this even possible to dislike?

  • This just get SICK near the end! WOW!

  • HOW IS THIS EVEN POSSIBLE?? : (]

  • oh my god

  • kinda sounds like it should be a section in antione's song "inspirations"

  • @bobbybellsupreme I was thinking the same thing.

  • It reminded me of mario at some bits.. lol Freakin Pure!!!!!

  • lol @ confession box & porno music comments...

  • also check out erik mongrain, andy mckee, don ross, thomas leeb, michael hedges

  • sensed a pink floyd vibe

  • I like it!

    and i noticed that parts of it sounds like porno music.

  • @marooki dude, what pornos do you watch?^^

  • @KonkreteXXX LOL

  • I've seen about 5 of his videos so far, every one more breath-taking than the other... at about, song 50, my parents are going to find me in my hair with one of his videos playing, and my head will just be esploded. This guy is just... Idk.. He's not a human, that's for damned sure, we produce bullshit like Justin Beiber...

  • is it just me, or does he seem to be sat in a confession box? lol another amazing song! Love it.

  • hmmm, he must have been using a baritone guitar in the album version

  • love it! damn nice guitar too to bring out all of those harmonics. and i like the XY mic. you know what your doing when it comes to recording acoustic guitar.

  • @TheMonstermatt4094 hey, you could answer my question: Which acoustic guitar type can bring out harmonics best(in terms of loud and clear)?

  • @KonkreteXXX i found that the taylor series is really good with harmonics but with a good pic up you can get most of them to come out good and clear.

  • @TheMonstermatt4094 yeah, i think you´re right, but i meant which TYPE of guitar...Dreadnought, Jumbo etc. ?

  • @KonkreteXXX He's playing a Stonebridge, if you want a dream guitar to drool over ;)

  • at the start of the video, look at his face...smiles like a^^

  • this is a higher key than on the album version if i am not not mistaken?

  • i think i prefer the less upbeat songs, but i still love everything antoine's done- incredibly talented guitarist and songwriter, i'm still in awe every time i watch these videos! :)

  • why isnt this guy guy more famous? hes a fucking virtuoso. and he makes very interesting music.

  • Love this. Thanks for sharing

  • I Cant help but groove to this great vibe

  • great song !

  • what a fitting name for this song.

  • Stop telling this man how to write his music. If you do not like it, then i suggest stop listening to it. That is a fairly simple concept i would say. This space is for comments, not bitching. Rivers would not be successful if they ran at one another. So flow a little and chill out.

  • @lkjhgfdsa776 ..well said dude.. the river phenomenon was great .. TRRRRRRRUE!

  • @lkjhgfdsa776

    You are right man don't give a fuck !!! ;)))

  • @lkjhgfdsa776 waw man, that was beautifull :) did you just came up with that metaphor?

  • Why are people so ignorant to music? Repetition and structure is necessary...

  • @EthanSh1n yo dat waz off da hook

  • To those who say repetition is bad, just remember that all music is pattern and repetition. Everything else is noise.

  • @ecliptik 12-tone row?

  • So many layers.

  • What a cool groove. Yet another master musician from candyrat! thanks!

  • @ozguitarist1

    shit i meant to give you a thumbs up.. but i clicked the wrong one! dammit... sorry! haha

  • i'm not not surprised any more with this guy

  • oic wat u did thar

  • We are playing some debussy and ravel in our orchestra. I have to hit a couple of random artificial harmonics and it about kils me. This dude is friggen incredible.

  • Can't get enough of this song. Those who are saying that the song is too repetitive, I couldn't disagree more - the riff may sound similar throughout but listen to the amount of variation on it as it goes on.

  • Omg im speechless. Ive seen so many good people on youtube, but I think this one is definitely a memorable oneee!!! Now that ive seen this amazing video im subscribing :D

  • It may sound repetitive in the bars, but i beleive it's what makes the song this great. It's a groovy song, full of rythm and soul (it seemed he was laughing before he started to play xD). Without the repetitions, the song wouldn't be so unique. Keep on with the good work ^^

  • Mother of god...

  • Brilliant song writer, regardless of what repitition there may be, it has amazing musicality. Many amazing songwriters and performers have repititious bars in their songs that comprise their verses, Nirvana's Kurt Cobain comes to mind, listen to any of their live songs and, regardless of the repitition in the bars, it's hard not to be drawn into the brilliance of the music.

  • Yeah, Antoine Dufour is incredible. This piece is performed masterfully, as usual, but isn't it a bit repetitious, musically? It seems like I keep hearing the same few bars over and over again. Still, it is inspiring to watch.

  • Funny that you say that, because I'm starting to think some people have a preference towards repetition in music, and others don't. I personally prefer repetition on bars that I enjoy, but it does become a hole that your song can get trapped in.

  • totally repetition is terrible, why do people repeat themselves over and over and over, repeating, repeating, repeating over and over again? Life is repetition, living and dying over and over and over, repeating again and again and again.

  • You are so funny--sounds like me. : -) This amazes me how such large hands and fingers can have such dexterity and nimbleness. Being able to master those strings with such a challenge makes it even more WOW-ing. Peace and Love to you. : -) Thanks for the laughter too. Your words fit me to a T. :-))))))))

  • his songs follow a general pattern. part1 which is a musical idea that he repeats a lot with minor variations, then in the middle part2 he switches to something drastically different check at 1:35, then at the end he finishes the song with part1 again. Did you even listen to the whole thing?

  • @stargate669 why do people post stupid comments over and over again..

    dont like it. dont listen it!

  • u wer tryin to be sarcastic n so many misunderstood u hahah

    Antoine's music compares to life itself

    wat better compliment can a prson give??

  • life is repetition get over it loser

  • Dannnnnnm!!!! This guy cannot be human--- "HeHeHe!!!!" he must be cyborg or some metahuman or something!!!!!! I never thought something like this stun is humanly possible!!!! I may dare to say in but ----- "Thats too Incredible!!!!"

  • ive worked it out.if i practise 24 hours a day for the next 400 years i think i can be this good on the acoustic guitar.this guy aint human!

  • you crazy man!

  • Siempre me quedo impresionado!

  • This is one of his hardest pieces. It's truly incomprehensible, how hard it is.

  • how many hours practice a week?

  • i can never predict what the next riff will be. i love it. its always all over the place. this guy is fucking gnar gnar

  • I haven't been playing the guitar in a long time, but seeing this guy makes me want to play again.

  • Excellent performance! :-)

  • Outstanding technique Antoine!

  • man i've been listening to his albums and all of his music for the last couple years and i'm still fricking amazed by every single old, new, future, song by antione!... man. amazzzzingggg..!!

  • That is to mute the strings above the nut. If you strum a chord and then mute the strings, they will still ring above the nut...very high pitched and annoying.

  • and on top of that it looks freakin cool...

  • I love when people say "your an idiot." It's "You're an idiot"... idiot. l2english

  • yes its quite the chain

  • I like his music

  • amazing!!!!!!!!!

  • se zarpa el loco! +5

  • yo stop this arguing!!!!! Lets just listen to some great music!!!

  • dude. u guys are having this epic argument over irony. wow

  • I love Antoines style. He has this thing of his in his music... This just so beautiful, I can't get enough of this song.

  • That just beggars belief...

  • Incredibly cool playing! Love it!

  • Rests in any peice are just as musical as the actual notes being played in my opinion.

  • He taps so well. It makes me feel inferior in every way...

  • Wonderful, beautiful i think you are the mozart of guitar !

  • It's ironic you say that because he went to school for classical guitar I believe. Mozart is the god of music :D.

  • Isn't it ironic, that someone trying to give the definition of ironic, doesn't know the meaning of ironic themself?

  • let's just get back  to listening to antoine's awesome music.

  • It's funny how people can argue and there is this awesome guy playing guitar just above them.

  • good call. youtube arguers can get annoying.

  • this is a baller piece!!!!!!!!!  way to go!

  • cannot compare music skills.

  • truly a talented person. I love his music!

    Keep at it bro!!

  • Really cool piece... He really takes an original to tapping on acoustic. As an amateur guitarist myself i am impressed by the technical prouess...

    He makes us Quebequers proud... Go Antoine :)

  • mental.

  • geez, what's the big deal about the views???

  • wow!!!! This was soooooo amazing!!! Loved it!!!

  • Stop with the number of views comments for god's sake! I believe the idea is to listen to the music.

    Amazing song. Can't get enough.

  • i love bro

  • I just LOVE this guy

  • 557 here

  • That was Awesome!

    I get so inspired listening to you!

    Jesse

  • Voodoo vibe. 5/5

  • ha ha very funny buachaillbeo very funny

  • guitar rape!!! :D

  • lol thats so funky. i'd love to get completly shit faced with antoine and jam.absolute god

  • Glad to see those lessons I gave him all those years ago are coming good.

  • rofl

  • hahaha

  • Yeah BuachaillBeo, you help me too. But I think Antoine Dufour has to practice a little bit more hahahahaha.

  • That is ridiculous it's damn near impossible but awesome. I wish I could play a fraction as well as he does...

  • pwned

  • I'd say, with years of practice. You might be able to play a small fraction of what he can do. In my opinion, everyone can play a fraction of what he can do.. Just it's about 1/10000000000...

  • One of Antoine's best.

  • it is the hardest of all his songs to play

  • Check out a hiding place for the moon

  • great song

  • The world needs more Antoine Dufours and Andy Mckee's. His avant-garde approach to songwriting is very impressive and original, and makes perfect sense to me as a musician. Enough going on, presented in a fresh new way, and enough repitition to make it worth hearing everytime.

  • I guess u've listened don ross, antoine dufour based his style on don's. But both are amazing

  • naber 1

  • I agree to say it's harder to be sensible to this song, than to Antoine's other compositions.

    The dissonances are just to subtle, and he breaks the rythm very oftenly...

  • Ktran11, if progressions all made sense music would be far too predictive. This tune is flashy, your right. But you failed to pick up on other positives - İts funky and extremely quirky. İf you look up the definition of Quirky im sure you will agree with me.

  • watch the rest of antoine dufour's vids, then decide whether there's a lack of substance, or whether you're simply unable to see it :P

  • haha owned

  • That comment doesn't really make sense. From a musical point of view, the entire song makes perfect sense, and to say it lacks substance is a dubious statement too. I'm not going to say it isn't flashy, but lets face it, who wants to listen to the same idea played 1000 times?

  • What makes sense to you? C G D chords repeated over and over?

  • The progression does make sense, you're just not listening right.

  • Not much reason for your criticism there bud.

    I have to say this piece is quite good for the same ideas maybe but to say it lacks substance with no reason just doesn't make sense.

    The title can tell you everything The purpose of the whole song and that song is give off a feeling or a "Strange Vibe" I can tell you that this may be his favorite Progression and that it's his "Groove Progression" It wouldn't make sense if it was out of key but sense that's not the case, it does make sense.

  • I think the substance this song lacks is a constant bassline. It keeps stopping abruptly while he plays higher notes very fast. That happens in a lot of his songs, which I think makes them sound eerie and "Vibe-y".

  • there is a constant bassline, well that is my opinion.

    because. it's a more funky one, it doesn't really stop abruptly. Well I like the bassline as it is because it really keeps you interested :)

    I'm not saying you're wrong, I'm just giving my own opinion

  • I used to truly believe that he was no more than a very talented man but, lo, Antoine Dufour is indeed a god!
