  • amazing cover!

  • well steve vai is still too far ;-)

  • you stink.

  • @josearroela You wish you were half that good beaner

  • shiveeeeeeeeeeeeer

  • i think that steve vai actually behind his head start's to scratsh when he hear you play his song :P:P nice dude!

  • Nice, keep going!!!

  • I'm so sick of hearing Caesar Huesca's version is sooo much better. Go listen to it then you fucking retards! Go listen to Caesar regurgitate everyone else's songs. Matt does some covers, but he is a COMPOSER! You who claim to "know more" should know better than to even put there names in the same sentence. If Caesar started writing now (which he can't), he wouldn't have enough life left to catch up to what Matt had written before he was out of high school!! And play every instrument on it!

  • la relève est là :)

  • sounds like another steve vai, excellent!

  • bends are in tune, pinch harmonics are wicked, pull offs and accurate picking holy shit you are godlike.

  • 240p , but it so goooooooooooooooood !

  • D= mi fingers is hidden because they was watching your guitar :D good job

  • Try to make another HD version plz :)

  • Muito bom! Parabéns! Congratulations!

  • this is soo fine .. love it .

  • I've noticed that many guitarists like to use the Bridge pickups as their main pickup selection...

  • Jesus... that cover was so faithful to the original it's crazy!

    Amazing!!!!

  • Always nails it.. Good Job for a Cover .. :] COOL Dude

  • great cover but vai is known to abuse his trem bar :)

  • Reading these comments, maby next time he should do a cover of GIVE PEACE A CHANCE

  • steve vai's guitaring is not for matt but music is for matt

  • I don't like this cover :P Mattrach is an exepctionnal guitarist, but he is not make for play Steve Vai :P

  • @roksor1000 Agreed 100% He's not meant for this type of music, but he is still a brilliant guitarist nonetheless :)

  • @roksor1000 Agree...Steve Vai has a high spiritual connection with his music and guitar...Mattrach does not have that...there is no shame in that, since we are talking about Steve Vai here.

  • @PhilosopherOnWeed

    I understand where you're coming from although it's a bit arrogant to assume MattRach or either one of us doesn't have a connection to the music we both cover and compose.

    I agree though, Vai is the king of musical self-expression. And for those Satch fans: The student becomes the master haha. I like Satch but Vai to me is the man.

  • @PhilosopherOnWeed Please, he only was 15...

  • YOU DID A FUCKING GREAT JOB! EMPHASIS ON THE FUUCKIIIIING! GJ man 

  • Comment removed

  • Jesus... guys. Stop the hate. This dude knows what he's doing. Im willing to bet everyone with a negative thing to say can't play any better than those guys from Dr. Acula :) matt, awesome job. Im glad not everything is exact, because you know what, yore a musician, and so am I. We make the sounds we want. We do what we want. Not what people tell is to. You took a work of art, and added your own soul and style into it, and did it exceptionally well. Go to college for music, you would fit in well

  • what do you use to record your guitar???

  • this guy matt roach is a good player very good man keep the good work ull go far

  • this guy matt roach is good greeat man job

  • You make playing guitar look effortless 10/10

  • ['_'] leggo head

  • dude awsome job at nailing a killer tone!

  • efffecT? :D

  • hope u ll be famouse, so talented.

  • Great playing, picking sounds clean and powerful, lots of cool stuff done pretty accurate, but what i've liked the most was that the playing is not the 100% accurate so it gives the tune tones of individuality, cool technique (speed and all that) and nice sound, well done. Vai Rules!

  • Well done........ listen to Cesar Huesca version

  • im gonna have a lifetime boner if i can play that well one day

  • You rock little dude!

  • more like sounded like modems exchanging trillion bits of information...or robots boinking..either one.

  • MAGISTRAL EPOUSTOUFFLANT MAESTRO( STEVE et les autres n ont qu'a bien se tenir) MEC T'ES INCROYABLE CONTINUE ET METS TON INCROYABLE DEXTÉRITÉ AU SERVICE DE LA CREATION BRAVO TU M AS SCOTCHE

  • im 14 and i covered this song for an audition check it out on my channel cuz i bet its better than square head :p just kidding hes really good but really see for urself

  • kick ass man...good job.

  • 3:36 comment feit il ???

    si quelqun pouvait repondre!

    merci!

  • @liondacier62 Ca s'appelle la technique du Flutter je crois. En gros tu tape comme un mulet sur ton Floyd.

  • stop saying "he is better than" you or "you're jalous" I play guitar, he is better than me but, i don't try to play a song i can't play. this vidoe is very bad. He can't play vai cause he is not good enought. What he does here is show us that he has a huge ego and think he can play all that he wants but the fact is that he destroys one of the best song ever made with a guitar. I'm not as good as him yes but i still can judge him and if you don't like that don't post a vid or don't go on youtube

  • @slipknotdu34 Way to go Tard, I give you a 5 for trolling. (kinda fail ain't it?)

  • @slipknotdu34

    You have one subscriber, one friend, and ZERO vids of yourself playing. So, ONE + ONE+ ZERO = FAIL!

  • @achoice2bmade don't send me a message to say that kind of shit. If you're unable to understand what i write it's not my fault. I already told that he is better than me but I don't upload a video on youtube of me "playing" a song I can't play.

  • @slipknotdu34

    We do know what you're saying when you say "...he destroys one of the best song...". What's not to understand? We hear you fuck-stick, and you're worthless. Go away...

  • @slipknotdu34 Are you an idiot? please, point out one thing he does wrong in this video. His vibratio is perfect, his legato licks are insanely precisive, and his stoccato licks stay in absolute tuning. Now, while you google those words to find out what they mean, please tell me what he did that didn't sound like Vai...he's got Steve's guitar, Steve's amp, Steve's style, AND steve's heart. So stop being Jealous (even though you made fun of those people in your comment) and tell me what was wrong

  • @MetalMastery man if you think Slipknotdu34 is wrong then i and he can't do anything for you. His slide the way he is bending the sound of his harmonics and the solo.... I really think you don't know anything about guitar so listen the original song or watch the Cesar Huesca video of this song and shut up. I'm sick of these kind of reactions "you don't think like me then you're an idiot". Slipknotdu34 know guitar much more better than you.

  • @MrHarioharima 1 Watch my vids

    2 Cry about it

  • @slipknotdu34 Oh and before you start talking shit about my spelling, yes, i accidentally spelled vibrato wrong. Now please, explain to me what was so wrong about this that he is "Not good enough" to play Vai. What did he do wrong, hm? Didnt think so..

  • tres bien!

  • By the way, I like this version better than Steve Vai's !!

  • Comment removed

  • wtf 1:30?????? that sounds crazy lol

  • Great job mate! I liked some of the subtle notes you made your own. Very cool.

    Check mine out and let me know what you think ;)

  • @slipknotdu34 haha are you deaf ?

  • @snookese hes trolling. i mean christ, he has slipknot in his name.

  • tout simplement magique, quasiment aussi belle que l'originale

  • Awesome!

  • mattrach rocks!!!

  • If you close your eyes you will hear Steve playing the guitar.

  • Man...there is just no emotion or feeling in this version. Back to the drawing board...

  • @theshyguitarist

    omg look at the date! 2006! he s back now with 5 more years of guitar training u can feel the difference.

    anyway i doubt that u was so good at his age playing guitar.

  • man, ur fuckin awesome, but u gotta settle down on the vibrato, way too fast

  • he didnt chose wrong he chose to get around and always stay sane and dont follow the path of the wicked and by money and power screwed minds tyvm think before u say something

  • oh my god your head is so square *_* xDDD

  • Why isn't this guy famous and rich? Seriously, if I could choose just 100 people in the world to be rich, this would be one of them.

  • @Arkanist69 , he simply chosed to be independant, here is his failure, he could have chosen a Major and win and lose money, here is the result.

  • u still the best :-)

  • 小鲁尼MATTRACH~太棒了~~~~

    相比VAI的原版,我更喜欢MATTRACH的这个COVER版­的

  • I'm pretty sure he plays better than you. It's easy to sit your fat ass on your computer chair and tell somebody how to play guitar.

    You good? Post a video. But we won't see that will we? Now go back to failing at life.

  • @Darkrunner1975

    Awesome comments. Tards like slipknot-something are such shit. He says Mattrach 'destroys' this song, but he himself can probably only play the skin flute!! What an ass for him to go out of his way to talk out of his element...

  • @Darkrunner1975 my god he got so owned

  • @Darkrunner1975 This kids guitar playing is dank, lots of respect. The bending is tuned well, the pinch harmonics are tight, technique is solid, and so many songs covered holy shit.

  • tu méritrais de rencontrer steve vai

  • Started off good, but you severely changed the middle fast section! You moved so far away from the originally melody, which arguably the best part! I'm guessing you wanted to do something different, but it didn't work for this. Sorry, not that great.

  • @ankenybandgeek2010 I couldn't agree more. Pointless Improvisation.

  • what do mean when you say this guy is not asian?

  • @JoolsGuitar I think he means that Asian people can play guitar very well... So i think it's positive for MattRach :D

  • @stekelmus lol. I was trying to be sarcastic, I guess it didn't come up well... this guy is amazing and I was trying to say how he isn't asian being that good.. thanks for your kindness anyway

  • @JoolsGuitar lol i knew it was sarcasm but some people don't see it as sarcasm but racism...

    And mattrach is awesome of course!

  • You're like karoshi guy

  • Ouaaaaaaaa, franchement excellent mec, t'assure ;)

    Je n'imagine même pas toutes ces heures ou tu as travaillé, tu es un exemple à prendre bonne continuation avec votre groupe! ;)

  • nice solo

  • This is by far the best version Ive ever heard other then the original recorded. Its amazing how dead on you are with everything. But you can still tell its actually YOU playing and not just a recording of the original. Just amazing how accurate you are. Everyone else strays off and ruins it

  • YOU SHOULD GET CRAZY LIKE STEVE VAI.!!!

  • Excellent !!!! Very good !!!

  • I doubt Steve Vai was ever this good.....

  • for me it's the worst cover of this song...there is only appareance...the guitar and effects..but the capacity of play...NO!!!

  • The only one thing I didn't like: the pauses between phrases; but it small thing compares with the talent of this guy!

  • Dude what pickups are you using??

  • @1Mistras1 dimarzio evolutions

  • Also check out Haruka Kageyama :)

  • Check out Richie Allan's cover. It's perfect!

  • Gustavo Guerra's cover is perfect

  • square head

  • @hylkj1 lego head XD

  • @Joker5844 XD

  • @hylkj1 minecraft

  • @hylkj1

    Big balls..!!

  • @hylkj1 go make a pb and j and shove it up your ass. suck my balls hater bitch.

  • @beanthetOaster what is your fucking problem

  • How do you record like that? audio is like perfect, video though....how do you though?

  • his pinch harmonics are just plain....wow

  • more than 4 yrs scince my jaw hit the floor, from this true work of art, i dont care who wrote it he owned it like no 15 yr old ever has and ever will! my fav. cover of mr vai,s master work!

  • He's good...my son is only 16 and you should hear him do this cover too!

    Look under: "GSS Coffee 2010 House" and let him know whatcha think

  • This is by far the most incredibly cover of this Song Not only that Ive ever seen... but Im almost willing to bet that u wont find another cover like this at all

  • @TrankWrites Depends on what you mean by cover. This guy has it good, but this one too, a good bit better => watch?v=tlCz2levVUE, and this one is ridiculously spot on (including the incredible tone) => watch?v=YDje6g1bWd8

  • Im American, but here my classes of French in school come in handy: Vous etes tres fantastique

  • this guy has got the sound down so good, he sounds like vai, i am confused, wow

  • wo0w te amooooooooooooooo!! eres maravilloso llora la guitarrita te amo...!!

  • you are just crazy dude !

  • 3:37 = pure fucking ownage. (hey, put a "1" in front of the timeline bookmark and it speaks for itself.)

  • I see the Steve Vai's guitar model,i hear Steve Vai song but i still feel Matt. Great job, dude !

  • MattRach is a awesome skilled guitar player, but I have to say that Steve Vai is not a cover for him, therer are several other guitar players who covered this more well.

  • Check my version!

  • Bravo !

    Ton talent est immense. Aussi bien (mieux ?) que l'original !

  • @Volisys Hé, faut pas charrier tout de même. Ce gars est plus qu'excellent mais il n'a ni le phrasé ni la fluidité de Steve Vai.

    (Ce qui ne veut surtout pas dire que je n'aime pas)

  • @Volisys mieux que l'original!sur!

  • @darkokure koi !!!????? il est fou lui !!! lol

  • keeeewL !!

  • w0w!so cool

  • You must be the Steve's Son. (T'es le fils de steve avoue ^^)

  • please make a video with your guitar collections

  • unreal

  • ARRRGGGG its for a seven string, not a six string... >:(

  • @ipwnuall2 steve's played it with his 6 string (flo and evo) live for i don't know how many years now. haha

  • @zachoon 0.o Serriously, do you have a link to a TuxGuitar / Power / Pro tab with a 6 string guitar?

  • @ipwnuall2 haha no but the thing is, he only plays the 7th string like for 2 or 3 notes. but you can watch steve play it live to see how he does it with six string. he plays the 7th string at the part right before he does that palm muted lydian run up to the main theme, an octave up. (i just play the 7th string notes an octave up)

  • @zachoon ahhh, ok

  • @ipwnuall2 shut up idiot your jealous because you cant play like this and you will be nothing in the future asshole fucking obiuusslyyyyyyyy

  • @MetalRockMusicRecord Erm, sorry to burst your bubble, but I wasn't jealous, I was just mad that on the tux guitar file I downloaded it was a 7 string... :/ I know I probably won't be as good as him, he takes pride in playing guitar, he WILL become a guitar god someday...

  • @ipwnuall2 you suck, my file was 6 :) jealous bitch

  • @MetalRockMusicRecord ... How / why am I jealous because I said a tab had 7 strings, not 6... -.-, Oh, and could you give me the link to the 6 string file please?

  • awesome...but sorry no one can beat steve vai at this song

  • My goodness. This is a coincidence. And here I was just thinking to myself that this guy's stuff reminded me a lot of Steve Vai. This explains a lot, lol

  • great

  • mattrach is gret among the youtube guitarists bc he mans up and plays standing up instead of sitting down like most others

  • are those squeels really high bends, or note harmonics?

  • @ipwnuall2 they are so called squealies or pinch harmonics (which are different to natural harmonics)

  • awesome cover...

    watch my attempt in my channel everybody

  • good cover...

    watch my attempt in my channel everybody

  • :D exelent

  • my god, did he just play steve vai..and hes 14 or 15 here..oh my fucking god!

  • I Don't need viagra , I Got Steve vai

  • Tes interprétations sont autant géniales que tes compos.

  • k perrisimo tocas man

    algien me puede decir k efecto usa este brother??

  • Sooooo everybody that bags him for having no emotion. Stop. Look at his concentration. He worked very hard for this song and you can tell. To be quite honest, I like his version better than any others I've heard on youtube and they are all from very "emotional" guitarists. I'd say everyone who posts a bad rap is just jealous that he outdid your favorite artists and I'll leave it at that.

  • what did you use to have that sound?

  • you guitar have a great sound

  • DUDE first Cannon Rock, now For the love of god!.. you have good tast! and i gatta say u have talent dude good job! :)

  • good but u have almost NO emotion.

  • @biggydoggsjj Ololol look at his other videos.

  • Dude, you are cool. I like when "regular dudes" cover songs. You picked a wicked one. Very nice.

  • Forget Oranthian. (shes good), but Steve Vai and Matt should record together.

  • @aurosne

    Matt is not at his level yet, so no.

  • shui fan

    ya pas mieux jadore pink floyd pour comment jme sens quand jlecoute bin lui c lseul a mfaire sentir autant ca musique jadoooore ya pas de mots pour dire a quel point!!!

  • 3:22 is played wrong, Vai use mostly legato with some picking in between..

    Good job ont he rest ;)

  • @vbdude006 who cares what steve vai does in the song, this is his interpritation of the song, so get over it.

  • @KevinFuxurMOM1993 now now, dont get your panties in a twist

  • @vbdude006

    Post your version or get the hell out.

  • @Darkrunner1975 Hmm why don't you do the same?

  • @vbdude006

    I'm not the one criticizing something I can't play.

  • @vbdude006 just because its not the the same as the original doesnt mean its wrong, i like to add stuff to stuff i cover also, just to add a touch of me to it, he probably doesnt want to be a copy freak, he likes to change it up some, have u even seen his canon rock?!

  • @guitarsbunch347 Has nothign to do whether I've seen his other stuff(and yes, I have btw). I was merely pointing it out, stop going into a fanboy rage because of it.
