Australias got talent Guitar Hero Smoking Joe

[marcusbourke]

wtf was that? the fast parts didnt have sound at all

[KoksUrner]

casi no se escucha cuando hace el punteo

[buzz545]

MA VA A CAGARE SO FARE DI MEGLIO

[celapossofa]

@buzz545 si si come no ahahahahahah

[azaroth75]

@buzz545 beh iscriviti e mostralo

[hellraiser7974]

reminds me of Extreme's "Midnight Express"..

[MrLuisete12]

LSD...



[modifiedxrc]

ye he can do that but can he put a froot pastal in his mouth without chuwing it

[RandomMocker]

Why are all the fast bits muted? Kinda lame. Still cool though, would have preferred some contrast! :D

[TheGuitardocs]

he's really smokin no kidding

[javitennn1]

why in all countries the people clapping when someone plays an instrument ... is very annoying and also detrimental to the musician

[dalton1976]

@javitennn1 Cause music is a feelling too! Not only techique!

[GamerGod9590]

@javitennn1 Because music flows through everyone and their brains literally start functioning in sync with the sound waves.

[KabukiGallery]

3 guitars in 1 damn

[Sandler41882]

He could wheel that girl in a heartbeat.

[texasmadeftw111]

HES PLAYING LIKE EMANUEL

[framusdiablo]

@texasmadeftw111 In fact thats also the sound, because it is a Maton Guitar, the same as tommy uses... and if you play fingerstyle on a maton, it nearly always sounds like Tomme Emmanuel, especially if you can play well;=)

[Shredin0id]

Holy fuck

[fastestcararound]

:) i loved it

[Anadiocha]

so fucking bored

[rfactormo]

Y U NO electric guitar with huge distortion?

[NJBZX]

@rfactormo this is fingerstyle guitar not metal.

[MrGoldyFace]

Personally think this was quite shit tbh.

[IfearGuitars]

@MrGoldyFace not really hard, the judges dont really know much about guitar.

[georgo342]

@IfearGuitars Its actually very hard

[azkeyz]

Accoustic guitars , have australians gone mad ?

if smokin joe is all you got , you will be destroyed !

of course there is the remote chance that joe will strike back with classical gas.

we shall see.

[robvicious]

He keeps changing the tempo, making it impossible for the audience to clap their hands in rythm... Really awkward moment when they try anyway.

[TheGuitardan100]

This kid has definitely copied Tommy Emmanuel! Fair play to him tough!

[TheGuitardan100]

*Though!!

[Androbb]

dear kids...this is a guitar..and this is the way to play it...forget your stupid guitar hero!

[mamat27]

Tommy emmanuel did and arranged that before... just a copy....

Good but copy..

[Martyfriedman001]

why the fuck are does brainless people clapping when he plays!!!!!

[heki92]

he dont catch notes clear... 1:25

[Slowhand1981]

Tommy Emmanuel style!

[FusionMusic1000]

At 16 he's pure dead brill

[knaspuckad]

it is emmanuels song but not exactly because his liltte solos in between

[MrDre990]

You onored tommy emmanuel ;)

Check my solo for a italian contest ;)

youtube.com/watch?feature=play­%ADer_embedded&v=NIU-YP4G-kU#!

[TheHeads2tails]

porn symbols everywhere!!!!!!!!

[federer4life]

Now, imagine Sungha playing.

[Omega1874]

If he has any sense, he'll use this as a mere staging ground for initial exposure and take his music to the top regardless of what these pop-culture ass fucks thinks "real talent" might be.

[MarkZoom95]

why do i see jimmy page in those moves :/ rock on kid great job

[ilikelife101]

well... they did a damn good job decorating the gym!

[bigdjindustriez]

It would be better if he'd get his own style instead of trying to copy Tommy note for note, even playing the same guitar. Tommy is already out there playing, we don't need another one, he's the best at what he does.

[XanosKnyghtshade]

@bigdjindustriez "We don't need another one" ?!

Are you nuts? Of course we need more, then we can make a band!

[TheBaddestRedneck]

I can tell you without going on a talent show. He ruins his performance by putting all that shredding into the song.  Anyone can shred a music scale, but it just doesn't contribute to the song. Thank you sir for your service to our country in Afganastan.

[chaingling42]

@TheBaddestRedneck dont be so fucking retarded

[TheBaddestRedneck]

I'm an expert on guitar, and bass guitar. This kid does fairly well considering that cheap guitar he is playing. Also, he makes those steel strings sound like catgut strings. Anyway, I would give him 2 stars just for trying.

[lonewulf2009]

@TheBaddestRedneck then you go on a talent show and show us how it's done boss...

[omgoshsam]

he's enjoying it!! <3

[TheDecidingBullet]

its not as good as tommy emmanuel,i agree but dang how can you say that isnt good? how many that commented here can play like that? im sure i cant

[JIM30747]

@TheDecidingBullet You sir, have got "Class"! It is SO easy to condemn someone when a lot of times those who are doing the condemning couldn't even begin to play what this guy is playing with such talent! EXCELLENT post! :)

[TheDecidingBullet]

@JIM30747 thanks... i cant stand people saying that this isnt good while they know they play chords like C, G and F all the time. and when they compare him to tommy emmanuel its just not fair for this boy. tommy has over 50 years experience on guitar you know... no matter how good this boy is, experience can not be matched :)

[LordPrick]

Sounds WAAAY More Cooler Than Tom Ward! ROCK AND ROLL!!!

[121Koreo]

To me he sucks at guitar it sounds like hes jus playin random crap

[reecemakespeace]

@121Koreo really? you really think that? you try playing that fast or even like that...

[devonwesticles]

doesn't matter what this kid does hes going to make more maney than anyone posting comments on jew tube

[OverWET]

omg

[manu12el]

he needs more definition, a lot more i cant even heard the notes of the final, but he have a good tecniche

[UnKiwii]

Tommy Emmanuel and then Smoking Joe ?

Australian people definately have a high potencial !

[1999marck]

just play that on an electric guitar or a bas guitar

[JDOANY]

@1999marck - Why? You wouldn't get any of the wonderful resonance that an acoustic guitar provides.

[pbureau69]

shoudl slap a banjo into his hands it would make more sense

[nthekid88]

its hard 2 make out wat hes playin to be honest!!

[bluesintheblood]

slooooooooooow down

[farneyblakeley]

crowd can't clap to that

[ddayxable]

I can't hear his fast runs??

[7Anonymou]

:O 

[graloups]

the Tommy Emmanuel's son !

[Zdem0Z]

Reminds me of Emmanuel's songs

[Antayn]

Emmanuel is his biggest idol :P I saw them playing together in sweden :P

[KeKeKedhvsc]

@Zdem0Z Yeah, it's a quite clearly a cover of his arrangement of Day Tripper/Lady Madonna. I'm sure a billion people have told you by now.

[msw0403]

@Zdem0Z coz tommy s his mentor xD

[trippyhood11]

@Zdem0Z Thats cause it is Emmanuel's song. Beatles Medley.

[taurusclimber]

@Zdem0Z Yea, this is Tommy Emmanuel's Beatles Medley.

[UnKiwii]

@Zdem0Z Actually this is an Emmanuel's arrangement.

[MrAereoo]

sungha jung's beatles medley?



[GlitterMeltdown]

Holy shit that is good. o.O He's AWESOME

[lateladipenelope]

Tommy Emmanuel? XD



[rockman0809]

I have never seen someone play the acoustic guitar like that....Wow!

[stottspage]

poor kid. talented as fuck but thinks "australia's got talent" is the way to the top

[salomon9595]

@stottspage Well, thanks to the show he's been able to tour the world and people who otherwise probably not would have heard of him have... Winning that show has only helped him making his name more recognized. Or what am I missing out?

[BOGIHRVATIZDUSRCU]

@stottspage so whats he about to do? go to records company that don't give a fuck about anyone? do it on your own and do it best, thats the worlds greatest feeling!

[CoDwithSwords]

Fuck, he'd rip apart an electric guitar.

[BeatleMonkeegirl15]

did i say chords? i meant notes.....ah whatever the kids good no butts about it

[BeatleMonkeegirl15]

Dammmmmmnnnnnnnnn......thats really good! alittle too mute on the faster chords but hey maybe thats supposed to happen :)

[JohnLennonIsLove16]

@BeatleMonkeegirl15 I love your name lol

[204blast]

H0WDY



[aigphoto]

@robertrobin10: It didn't come across as a rip-off of Tommy. It was a great tribute to Tommy, who is obviously this young guy's hero, because he (also obviously) spent a long time studying that performance and duplicating it. That's how you start, when you're a kid. TE started the same way, but his hero was Chet Atkins. Same difference.

[gennahrox525]

YOU ARE AWESOME I HOPE YOU WIN!!!

[Lawliet3300]

man all these guys who comment on joe are just a bunch of fags who couldnt make it life. these guys are just a bunch of pricks whove never had a girlfriend and comment shit about others

[kusindan]

I don't think he is that good o.O

[SkubeZilla]

he must watch t0mmy emmanuel ALOT

[HeddyValle]

This is The Beatles Medley!

[HeddyValle]

BS! He copied Sungha Jung!

[musicaddicted777]

@HeddyValle its not about the frekin song u stupid idiot is the skill

[HeddyValle]

@musicaddicted777 why don't you try writing in the proper way Cunt? Yeah, I know this is about the skill, I can't make a simple fact or Joke about it?

[musicaddicted777]

@HeddyValle 'i can't make a simple fact or Joke about it?' fine, now where is the fact, or joke?, cuz that was a joke, them im sorry, ur frekin horrible , he didnt copy Sungha Jung u stupid 'Cunt' he copied tommy emmanuel, and what if he didnt, he didnt rip him off, in fact he did a duet with him!!

[HeddyValle]

@musicaddicted777 like i said before.. I'm just makeing a FACT...When did i ever say anything about ripping off Emmanuel? Or Sungha? I Didnt! it's just a FACT! Now pleases stop bothering me with your Bullshitty Nonsense

[musicaddicted777]

@HeddyValle im sorry i thought it was OK to make a cover of a guy he knows well, just cuz that is true doesnt make ur point a valid one, babies cry , oh well oh shit, i guess ur argument was right then.

[pecinpah]

This kid's a monster. Cover or not, that's mad skill and talent.

[DemonGinger123]

Hey nothing wrong with playing Tommy Emmanuel. Not many people can.

[Gingerlord01]

at least he wasn't just a shredder, he sounds great. i like him :)

[hopescharlie]

He's good, and he probably deserved to win it, but I can honestly say that I could play all of that, and everything else he did and I'm 17

[roamerreed]

you do realize it's supposed to sound muted, congrats haters you got no game

[KingOfShadows1500]

Finally, someone who has actual skills!

[stix471]

i HATE it when non-guitarists say "its not even that fast" or "that sounds easy" fuck up bitch you couldn't play three chords...

[squigmasta97]

@stix471 i also hate when good guitarists say it wasn't fast just to brag

[playboyking98]

@stix471 bet i can play three chords ? :P

[stix471]

@playboyking98 haha good, at least you're not a total douche then ;) haha

[playboyking98]

@stix471 haha :P.

[woodtick71]

@stix471 i can't even play 2 proper chords and i been messing around with it for about 4 years.

[stix471]

@woodtick71 haha stick with it bro ;)

[JDOANY]

@stix471 - yeah that was pretty damn fast. I think the people who say things like that don't understand what fingerpicking is. They only pay attention to the fret hand, and don't pay attention to all the work going into the picking hand. In this...the rhythm alone was enough to be impressed by.

[stix471]

@JDOANY yeh so true :)

[stratmemph1]

@stix471 not to mention its on acoustic, which is way harder to do that with than electric. dude is sick that takes years of practice.

[JulesRulesYou]

@stix471 hounndred like xD

[SuperVBO]

i <3 uu !!

[cyactildie]

I WANT THAT GUITAR !!!11one

[Karnivool09]

he was 16 atm the time, playing like this, and you guys are giving him shit for playing like tommy emmanuel? not many ppl can play that well in their whole life. give him a break.

[gibbie31]

not only does he play exactly like tommy emmanuel and use the exact same riffs and tone, hes also from austrailia and plays the same freakin custom guitar tommy uses.. get your own act guy.

[MeBeJackson]

@gibbie31 Dude, it's a cover, and he has the same guitar because it's a good guitar. Also, how the hell can he help it that he's from Australia?

[Teleplayer95]

I wanna hear him on an electric guitar

[Daan7000]

The main riff thingy is from Day Tripper by The Betales

[TheRealDeal848]

AMIGO IM A MUSICIAN AND DONT LISTEN TO (ANYONE) ON HERE THAT SAYS THERE WAS ANY FLAW AT ALL IN YOUR PERFORMANCE!, WAS FANTASTIC YOUNG BLOOD, ANYONE WHO HAS TO SAY THIS AND THAT ARE JUST RAGING THEY CANT DO WHAT YOU CAN DO BRO....KEEP THAT FEELING.....MUSIC IS POWER

STEVEN

[weazle0203]

he is brilliant, but he is simply too fast :(

[CaptCitrus]

0:49 Dr.Mario FTW!!

[Ziece4]

mario o3o...

[metachozoite]

do they allow electric guitsr?

[TheKeiran1996]

to me it doesnt really matter if he palms mutes alternate picking this sounds awsome anyways. just my opinion. :)

[cursedswordsman]

Oh boy, a moderately talented guitar player. It's not like half the population can do this or anything.

[MuhammadSweepmez]

He's okay, haha he isn't anything "special" he palm mutes his alternate picking because he can't play it clean. The audience is fooled because none of them actually "know" guitar :P

It's like if i went up there and just did eruption tapping over and over again. Easiest thing in the world, but the audience wouldn't know any better, Im using my other hand to tap, which to them is "special"

[salomon9595]

@MuhammadSweepmez Haha, I assume you like Jason Becker. Search for 7680joe (his youtube channel) and I'm sure you'll change your mind! Jason Becker himself (or someone that typed it in for him from his youtube acc) commented on his video It's Not Easy. Joe is an amazing guitarist.

[4u250ut]

this guy is pretty good....but type in Sungha Jung.. in the search bar..you be amaze.

[Kingyousy]

wow that crowd sucks

[ZuoCruz]

Simon made 7 accounts

[OliverMazur]

check out tommy emmanuell - day tripper / lady madonna

[mahmudaqi]

which song is this again i forgot lol

[greyfoxeye]

@sliknutzzz

haha yeah its true what you say, but dont dis that judge to bad, he's already been famous for his music and only joined as a judge in his retirement

[Valerio2381]

he has taken the ispiration from Tommy Emmanuel ! ! ! !

Don't you believe????

Find on YouTube Tommy Emmanuel - Beatles Medley

Tommy is the master

[itstheit]

All he has to do is beat the kazoo player and the sock folder, and the title's his.

[sliknutzzzz]

"its because of kids like him he stopped playin". thats what i call a sellout. theres always someone out there thats better than you. never give up like this fag judge. nice jammin by the contestant though.

[2moongod8]

i just seen the tommy emanuell video on day tripper too......what the fuck?

[articachicken]

The hollands got talent guy did it somewhat better, same song :P

[storyofalonelyheart]

hes sooooo hott!

[Elltrixer]

He isin't that good...

[weehamish2002]

@Elltrixer show me how its done then

[littleindean]

@Elltrixer but he is better than me, and i'm pretty sure that a lot better than you xDD

he isn't that good, but all is in the practice, a little more time, and he is perfect..

[MadddSkillzzz]

He's a good player, but it's Tommys arrangement. He plays these two songs together like Tommy, he plays a Maton like Tommy, he is trying to imitate Tommy's style and I don't need another Tommy. I'm going to see the original Tommy live on friday.;)

[warlleylucas]

who's the judge that says he stop playing because of kids like that? I don't recognize him...

The other, of course, is Jim Carey's Hank, from "Me, Myself And Irene"...

[SamoMarshall]

He is good but he's a copy of Tommy Emmanuel

[crosswalkstudios]

Australia's obviously missing Tommy. That's why he got through....

[whatthebollocks]

i think it sounds kinda cool with those palm mutes in there

[claxy1337]

he wont get anywhere imitating Tommy Emmanuel...we already have him hahah

[RealestMcKoy]

Lame!!

[saggybellend]

he is fucking amazing

[funkyp4nd4]

nice some beatles songs

[flyman8998]

wooow he is good. He must have played guitar fore some years.

[muflender]

this guy is epileptic:|

[EvilElmo135]

this guy is legit

[nowheremancameron]

it's daytripper then lady madonna and then some crazy palm muted soloage

[Gatlingboy]

isnt that Day Tripper by the Beatles?

[sammyisback]

really wish the crowd would shut up with their out of time clapping, its not like it gonna put you off beat or anything >.>

[kyeruu2]

Lol failed, ONE STRING SOLO

[RacoonCH]

Fucking hero!!

[Mastermarco100]

but he is really good

[sasa2340]

He is really GOOD and I LOVE his playing, EXCEPT solos start @1:14 ....

[trojantjl]

too bad he doesn't sing

[19bluesman87]

I'm envious in this case

[sambobsam007]

That was realy cool i realy like it..GoodLuck.

[operatorius]

really, this guy's a tommy's copy ... and i'm not saying this as a good thing, it's bad actualy, he's got to stop being a copy cat and start doing his own stuff.... cause even the songs are from his repertoire.

[krabykevin]

He doesn't palm mute the fast parts because he can't do it well enough. There's a difference between a bad palm muted note and a good palm muted note. Most of his are good. And if my ears serve me right, this is how the song is meant to be.

[TheSugarFreedom]

If you guys like this, look up a guy named Tony D...
