[lguitarn]

hey question was this a talen quest and did you win

[AcousticJW]

@samfitzpatrick what do you use for the percussion part in the beginning? A pickup or is there something inside the guitar?

[m88888]

marmite marmite marmite marmite marmite

[imamacyoureapc]

@m88888 I would like some marmite

[gracemaster65]

gotta say one of the better covers of the song i've seen on youtube. great job man

[Watita]

JUSt... NICe....i have practice this song and have made some variations just us you.... i can say u, that this is the best cover i have seen

[johnsanderson21]

mate, you have to tab this, you are awesome!

[guitar4life124]

@TheNinjaButts it makes a sorta clicking sound which can be used as a Hi-Hat. to get a snare drum kind of sound, you can either flick your fingers near the end of the guitar at the bottom, like I think he does, or hit the guitar with your hand next to the fret board meets the guitar. that makes a kinda snare drum kinda sound. just play around with different hits and stuff anywhere on your guitar and see what sounds you can come up with.

[guitar4life124]

@TheNinjaButts the percussive sound is achieved by simply hitting the guitar at different places to get each different drum type. if you hit the strings with the right hand near the sound hole (which I think he does) that makes a kick drum sort of sound. I tend to hit the bridge/saddle of the guitar, whatever you want to call it to make the kick drum sound, so you can still comfortably play the guitar at the same time. to get a Hi-Hat sound, if you hit the low E string onto the bottom fret...

[zerosipa]

heh, awesome cover :D

[mcrluvaby41]

amamzing!

[TheNinjaButts]

how can you acchieve that percussive type of sound u did at the beginning their? is their some sort of reverb?

[wabbit131]

Dude OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You are amazing

[Diearscage]

ok this is the best cover

[VanHelsing77783643]

wow that an amazing man :O

[bequietandjam]

oww my fucking god... This is the best cover i've seen! You put emotions and you play with a pick! you're a fuckn boss, man.

[samfitzpatrick]

Thanks for the comments everyone :)

[Quezalji]

great job!! loved the variation on the ending! have to ask, how did you go about learning this?!?!

[samfitzpatrick]

@Quezalji I basically learnt various sections to the max sessions video, and then using the federation square video as extra inspiration, I wrote various new parts over a few months until I was happy with the structure. It tends to change everytime I perform it, its just a really nice tuning to jam around in. Glad you liked it, thanks for the comment :)

[Quezalji]

@samfitzpatrick good deal. I'm hoping to learn it, which is how I came across your vid! I'd be really interested to see another video but of you focusing close up on the guitar to get the picking/fingering down?? Is that possible? (since tabs for this would be ridiculous) Either way, best rendition of Ocean i've come across yet!

[sdc1492]

Hell of a job dude. I literally just made a youtube account for the sole purpose of commenting on this. Ya can't beat JB but who can, did a good job putting your own sound to it

[imamacyoureapc]

Look at those guns

[Kelkijojoface]

*loves it*

[attica1010]

Oh @Samfitzpatrick, I meen no disrespect, this is really really good, I am trying to learn this and it is definatley better than anything i will ever be able to do but I meen, cmon Its john butler, There is no beating him at his own game

[attica1010]

@xFishJrx NO IT IS NOT, This is a great piece but it isn't better than JB's best Performance of it, its better than the original album piece but no it's not better than Jb @ Rothbury or max sessions or fed square

[Hybridiize]

@attica1010 I think it is ^^

[mitchbarry94]

dude.... dude.. funking insane! bravo on the cover there.

[andreabianchini83]

[783431]

I love watching and hearing you play this every time. You really are sooooooo dreamy

xx

[lsmf5]

well done mate, was a pity I didn't get to come see it at the Union.

[pbl826]

I like how you made it your own. As a former resident of Fremantle, Western Australia (where JB came from), I approve, and I think the man himself would too. :)

[mkdnss]

almost better than the man himself... flippin awesome

[hannahburger7]

you are amazing! i love the butler. great cover.

[TheOceanDMB]
