  • What kind of pedal are you using man? And amazing cover btw

  • ur awsome man!!

  • wow.. u really good.. hardcore..

    

  • You seem just as obsessed with Billy Talent as I am. -^.^-

    Haha, love the cover! Tutorial maybe? :)♥

    I'd really appreciate it!

    ~DVM.

  • absolutely brilliant dude, good to see someone who aspires to be a great guitarist like ian d'sa, all you need now is a stage personality! haha i would love to see jesus running up and down playing devil in a midnight mass ^_^

  • you and everybody else must think a little bit all these songs we try to play are very hard and ian just can play all of them without any fail O:

  • ugly guitar!!!!!!!!!

  • TAB IS NOT MUSIC if you want to call yourself a musician learn to read sheet music and learn scales

  • @ooeeooaaaa  i love you, but not in a gay way.....

  • @ooeeooaaaa not to be a dick or anything, but i see you've already crossed that barrier, MUSIC is what you play, not what you read. i cant read sheet music, and i make songs just fine, catchy and even sometimes difficult riffs, songs and solos but i cant call myself a musician because some uptight retard with a holier than thou attitude towards people who dont read sheet music says so?

    get a grip, a musician is someone who makes music, with or WITHOUT reading a piece of paper

  • WTF why cant i find the right tab for it :/ i guess im tabbing it by ear too ( with the help of your video)

  • I really like this!

  • oh wow!! Your version sounds better then the original!! XD

  • Comment removed

  • @111DeineMudda111 you bitch

  • very nice cover 5*

  • Nice guitar color, great cover as well.

  • what a perfect tuning :) congrats

  • feels like christmas

  • BrownBear96 is actually really better

    Anyways Good Cover^^

  • @Fuztheuz1337 no offence but this cover is ways better then his..

  • he isn't better .....

    very nice cover

  • BrownBear96 is better

  • amazing man. i really want to play this. u know technicly u could of just looked up the tabs like i did.lol. but ill believe u did it by ear 8)..nice

  • wow killer, good job bud. All by ear

  • @NooKJohnny that must hurt...

  • :O are u michael jackon ....

  • i can't believe that you found all these songs by ear :D

    i think you have the chordbook from the second album :P but great job aswell 5 stars

  • you didn't tab this by ear,

    you bought the book... fucking liar.

    great cover though.

  • if that was the case why wouldn't he just say "if you want the tabs go buy the book!"

    good cover !

  • because he wanted to make it seem like he tabbed it out by ear? which would be.. pretty difficult i highly doubt he tabbed it out by ear.

  • but then again...

    1. I'm just a bassist and I tabbed out the first lick of that song.

    2. We don't even know how long he's been playing... yes it would be pretty difficult to tab out, but that's where talent comes into play. You only need to know a bit of music theory and everything comes easier.. jsut by listening to a you'll know which chords are major, minor etc. then you jsut find the root note.. fairly simple. And Ian's style is basically a melody over power chords.. simple enough

  • but he plays exactly by the book and he hasn't made one mistake, not one. and he pretty much has covered every song off the album.. wouldn't you do that if you got the tab book?

  • yeah you're right

    maybe he's to lazy to type it

  • awesome!

  • thats a kick-ass guitar color

  • nice but i have to agree with MrJoelxxx

  • Very good cover do you play this song with drop d or standard tuning?

  • you´re just playing single notes in the intro not the whole riff ? why ?? practise!!!!! and make a new cover!!!

  • fucking good man

  • the guitar in this song is really relaxing

  • esta muy bien

  • it a sad song but it rocks!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • you're the best, man

  • i tried i sucked

  • Don't Give up!

  • awesome! i really wanna learn how to play this, can u give me any tips for the intro? do u play string by string?

  • i believe him. i can play things by ear. its not the exact way ian d'sa plays it (i have the billy talent book) but its the same sound in a diff place on fretboard. i once managed to sequence space dementia on garageband piano by ear, and i sequenced butterflies and hurricanes. Some people have that talent. Billy talent lol. ian d'sa plays things by ear, he said so in an interview

  • Nice!

  • 5*!!!

  • uhm. tabbed by ear? hard to believe.

  • how else do ppl tab in the first place. just them people write it down for everyone.

  • umm... tab books?

  • i have never used a tab book in my life, also who u think writes the tab books? the band who wrote the music?

  • well yeah, some bands do that

  • yeah but not all bands

  • lol my name is oliver haha

  • Hah, dude, when I heard the beginning I was like "this is a little to fast" then the bg music came along I was like "Oh, I see..." But u got some talent there (ironically the band)

  • i'm learning to play electric guitar. i hope i get that good someday

  • if you practice enough you will guaranteed. i thought that was totally insane a while ago but now i can play alot of billy talent. dont give up

  • dude you rock!

  • dude u r an idiot! just because someone is good at somthin like this doesnt make him a fake! hes probably been playin for like most of his life or somthin

  • Funnily enough, I also have the tab book and it is you who is the liar here. ^_^

    Not that it even matters...

  • DUDE...TEACH ME!IM LITTERLY DEPREESED PLEASE do u have like classes?if u do can u tell me?thank u

  • Playing (well, trying to play) this song on an acoustic guitar really screwed up my left hand; it feels all deformed and painful.

  • I was just wondering in the intro are you doing some pull-offs?

  • he did like max 2... he mostly was just playing different notes in a chord

  • ok i can play this song, but only fingerpicking, does anyone consider that cheating?

  • I do. Unless you do it with your thumb and index forming the pick. That is legal

  • whats wrong with fingerpicking?

  • hey im just asking but what kind of amp do you use dude ?

  • he probably used reverb. thats why the amp seems like itsechoing

  • i think hes got some delay there

  • i saw them at a chicago My Chemical Romance concert and when i heard this song i was like OMG

    it was ahmazing

    and falling leaves

    i love the way they play the guitar in their songs =]

  • voices of violence and surrender ö

  • you are very talented to be able to figure the whole btii cd by ear..you are a god. 5 stars

  • yo man if i acctualy do start a band YOU should be in it!!!!!if you want that is

  • amazingggggggggg

    :)

  • my favs atm are "River Below" "Voices of Violence" "The Navy Song" "Standing in the rain"

  • Cooooool, my favourite song :-) Can you play River below ?

  • i wish i could play the guitar as well as you... but no, i have to play the piano :/

    sry for my terrible english =)

  • you should seriously start tabbing, i haven't found a good tab for this song anywhere, and i can't figure out what you are playing

  • i agree... although u dont have them.. u can tab them right ?

  • Billy Talents guitarist is sooo amazing, all the chords he uses, he must have a huge knowledge

  • kick ass man

  • you got it

  • excellent job m8...i am trying to learn it too;)

  • wow nice job play for billy lol

  • wow dude you learnt all that by ear? sounds very very accurate. must have taken months to learn it

  • months? calm down. it's not that hard

  • no i' m sorry i can't calm down i'm just so exited that i thought it took him months!..of course i didin't think it took him months, i've learnt a couple songs in a couple days by ear. it was basicly a complement

  • lol

  • ...?

  • you got skills

  • nice strat!

  • How much did your guitar cost?

  • Ultimate guitar dot com may be your friend ;)

  • yeah! i've been on there for a while!..maybe not a member for long but i've been getting tabs from there for a loonng time..thats the site i first started tabbing off..when i first started playing guitar!

  • great nice harmonys your truly talented

  • aaaaaweesooomee...please explain me how you're playing the fast thing...please

  • im not much of a guitar player but i do know that hes not going that fast. hes just playing chords ocasionaly changing the position of his fingers. hes just doing down strokes ocasionaly pulling up with the pick for the fast part. if im wrong i give u the permission to give me shit

  • you mean hammer-on/off?

  • like i said im not much of a guitar player so i have no idea what ur talking about or what im talking about :P

  • haha try googling guitar and learn some stuff :D it's pretty simple i think

  • me to please

  • dude send me the chords or tabs or music or whatever thanks and great job

  • did you even read the description....

  • omg really awesome. nice job

  • Amazing cover. I want to put up some Bass covers of Billy Talent because they are so damn fun to play but I need a capture card. Amazing and probably the best cover I have seen of this song on guitar.

  • wicked i wish i cud play like that i suck lol...

  • Just practice all the time, that's all you need to do is just play. Whenever your bored, pick up your guitar, when your stressed out, pick up your guitar. Thats how it works. Lessons are lessons sure, but teaching yourself is the best thing any guitar player can do.

  • dude thats good u remind of robert paige i think that's his name

  • wow he is amazingly good.. even though much hes better then me, you should still look at my billy talent guitar covers.(fallen leaves is my best)

  • good

    fucking

    job

    :D

  • Well done guy ! Go on !

  • wow thats pretty dam good to me

  • WOW!!!!! i play guitar (bass) but not that good and i LOVE BILLY TALENT and i get mad at ppl that have neva heard of them

  • I love Billy Talent, and you truly are a great guitarist, music makes life worth living, im also syked to here the first album cover from you.

  • no you idoit he's playing the whole thing on his own he's not singing thats why it sounds like ben kowalewicz (yes i know how to spell his last name) IT IS! he just has the music playing in the back so he remembers where he is or so that people arnt like ...i dont remember it sounding like this because some people dont listen to sections of songs at a time!....wow..get smart next time buddy

  • im speachless....rofl

  • i can't believe you people havent recognised this yet... IT SOUNDS TOO REAL! the guy obviously just pretended to play guitar and had the music on his computor and just added it in the clip! the singer also sounded just like ben from billy talent. how much of a chance is that? he mightve played the begining cuz it sounded a bit...different.

  • Are You Serious, grow up, in my opinion your jelous!

  • Vivalasimpsons u idiot!

    He is playing the guitar, but he aint singing, hes just playing along to the song retard. Get ur facts right before accusing people

  • how old are u people? like 17? u know ur crap, i dont im only 10! for a 10 year old most people would say thats a good guess for what i sayd, next time u see something like that by "Vivalasimpsons" just ignore it!! that will save all of us some trouble!!!

  • We can't tell how old you are by your name buddy.

  • Well obviously dumbass, he does have it playing in the background! Wondering why it sounded like ben? Because it is him idiot! He has it there so it won't be so plain. And you can actually here him play, so don't bitch about him just because you aren't as good as him...
