[LoadUpOnGunz]

[CaptainCrunchOwns]

Unbelievable. Great musician right here.

[peace6311]

peaceful 

[RSorbyGuitars]

listen to gareth pearsons version :)

[TheMrJAMESxx]

how can you dislike this!?

[ShhItsNick]

I know you must get this every day but I go to an arts academy and I want to play this for my school. I would really grateful if you wrote down the tabs and gave me a link. If not please still message me and tell me you can't so I do sit around just waiting. Thank you for your time. (:

[tragicallyhippo]

Holly crap that was good

Not what I expected but still really cool

[TheYoyoman12]

Good job dude

[wintersnowman]

You should do some Buddy Holly tunes!

[skoca01]

definetely; gareth pearson's cover is better than this

[9393zach]

Amazing. Wow. Also, 25 people DO care about that.

[SpaceSpartanZ]

wow ur a great player!

[therealreyfamily]

I just subscribed... So far you have two videos linked on my FB page... Man, you are really good and stuff

[vVASuP]

Let me stand up for a second so I can bow to you, I'm going to subscribe.

[kirbygene]

I would never have thought 'Buddy Holly' would sound so good with this kind of treatment. Wonderful!

[BeatlesColdplay]

I would like this 100 times, I wanna learn this.

[Shchphinkter11]

excellent guitar player.

[magesy99]

How excelent this is! I remember "Buddy Holly" being a demo Video on my Windows 95 CD :).

Only thing missing: the TAB! So, please, please, please, post a tab!

[BDTHESM4]

great video, would u mind posting tabs for this song or at least the solo

[tuleli]

oh ma goodniss

[LesPauloCaster]

I got the goosebumps! applause! freakin great!

[docterphreak]

Absolutely beautiful!

[smnewthtrblnmnd]

awesome, well done!

[ChesterGreeneMusic]

you should try alternating the I and M fingers you'd have more speed. Trying to repeatedly strike the same string with the same one finger slows you down significantly. Greatly played nonetheless :)

[Tyetheberious]

@ChesterGreeneMusic Watch his other videos, he has no trouble with speed.

[SLUguyMadrid]

@Tyetheberious I have. I didn't say he had problems with speed. I was pointing out that if he alternated he would be faster than he already is. Chill out.

[ChrisWales22]

This is amazing

[beelzeb0ss]

I love weezer!

[mikepetralli]

THAT WAS DAMN IMPRESSIVE FRIEND!! 

[Doctorpwnage101]

[Briggsters]

[RYGovernment]

¡¿Oh no what do we do?! :D

[daveyjones2015]

Man I like songs like this. Nothing like taking a song and making a classical work out of it. Really shows artistry

[jakemandujano1414]

I have been a subscriber for a while but I never saw you do a Weezer song so now I'm super psyched! Maybe you can add another Weezer song or two on your long to-do list???

[jaydy11]

How do you dislike this???? It's AWESOME!

[TheAppleSpaceMan]

Woah, bugger me.

[dizzydude21]

[WeezerCoversProject]

That's just incredible. Amazing arrangement. Bravo, sir!

[asd848]

hey amazing job man!

[mark101102]

Dude that's so amazing! give u 10 stars but there are only 5 stars so how about I give u 6?

[UqZ]

very nice adrian, a very peaceful version ha (:

[whinniethepimp]

really awesome! i'm learning this tune right now and i was looking up others versions for some guidelines and wow!!! i can't touch this! BEAUTIFUL!!! i don't know if you can sing and play at the same time but if you can, this would be a 9.9 instead of a 9!!!!!!!!!! rock on! go weez!

[rohbit]

I really think you should post this as a response on Rivers Cuomo's channel. I think he'd love it.

[guitargod1722]

wack

[Medic37dan]

How long did it take you to get that down?!? Awesome!

[Bombaclock]

[LordMirthLtd]

you need to calm down

[jaalover]

oo wee oo i look just like buddy holly oo oo and your mary tyler moore

[XXsavieXX]

Where are the tabs? I can't find them anywhere! I'm also to stupid to figure it out by myself, lol.

Nice job:)

[ShelterDogs]

@XXsavieXX Asking "where are the tabs?" annoys the hell out of the guitarists who upload these videos. They get asked over and over again. If they don't put it in the Description area with a link, they most likely don't have any.

[thekingofnintendods]

tabs???

[micicu]

Wow man, you are amazing!!!

[laovejadollyoficial]

wooow so unexpected...!!!! very good...i liked it...

[kathysoiio]

[mimimishima]

[lucianimafia]

This is really beautiful. Nice job.

[CalebTheGuitarist]

im sure youd do a smashing acoustic rendition of the star trek: voyager theme.

[Sonnyboy56]

I've watched a few of your vids and come away thinking of you has a post-modern Christopher Parkening. Really cool stuff!

[me4ever22c]

That. Was. AWESOME!

[eldr1ntravvv]

You could probably make a ton of cash playing on the streets for people. Get out there!

[susan462]

I like the song played both ways, the video of Buddy Holly was genius though, The Fonz-Aye-lol..

[susan462]

I know my comment sounded corny but i really like your version of this...

[blindwit]

Nah. Not corny. It's a nice rendition of the song. It's too bad he didn't sing folk-style to it.

[Sylar337]

Really enjoyed listening to that, ta

[susan462]

5 stars indeed!!!!, and your playing makes me think of Weezer's video of Happy Days thats how good it was...

[Yuti111]

good job, smooth...

[hihininahihi]

[geniusNOTatWORK]

please, please make a tab for this! i LOVE it :)

[captaincrevis]

tab please

[ironheart3049]

man.. you look so relaxed and seems really got into it. nice way to fall.

[SgtPepper1200]

nice, a nice relaxing version of buddy holly. I Dig It

[bigZjujuman]

well do we still need to bring a tuner if we could tune by ear...do you have perfect pitch...well maybe most likely.... no answer the question, do you hav perfect pitch...umm yeah.... ok then welll just have to find that oout then

[Euphoriate]

You arranged this yourself? That's impressive. Have you learned any classical pieces? You fingerpick so much that I'd thought I'd ask.

[bigZjujuman]

what kind of guitar is that

[robchrist91]

it's a gitane dg-250m.

[bigZjujuman]

is that a good brand

[robchrist91]

i don't know. i have never heard of that brand until i came across the user's page. hey you seem cool. do you like shoes? we should be friends.

[bigZjujuman]

yes we should and we should also follow other peoples style beecuase we dont know our own(this is not reffering to this video at all)

i.e. that glow stick will make my shirt(kevin)

[robchrist91]

god dammit toby

[zeroigniz]

it's not about brands.

[robchrist91]

what would you prefer? a fender strat or a squier strat?

[pahwraith]

Which would you prefer? awesome skills and a 100 dollar guitar? Or mediocre skills and a five thousand dollar guitar?

Although a nice guitar and skills are not mutually exclusive. But the guitar doesn't matter, it really doesn't.

To put it another way, Michael jordan would have kicked your ass barefoot.

[robchrist91]

well i'm just referring to it just from the guitar alone. i didn't put any factors into. no need to change up the issue

[bigZjujuman]

well it wont hurt to know though

[MrNaFaN]

where u learn the song from + link plz thx

[SendMeBelow22]

:))))))) smiles across the board homie my props

[elmariachi304]

Great interpretation of this classic tune (classic for our generation anyway). You play very expressively.

[lightMSR22]

dude i'm only 16 and not only this song applies to me.. all weezer is the story of my life.. the no muscle misfits... dont say this is your generation regardless of when i was born this is my music...

[tb1337]

tabs please

[OUSmee]

Can you make the Tabs for this arrangement available it is amazing, very impressive interpretation

[bando51689]

amazing... weezer's my favorite band ever!... you definately did this song justice

[Kentb808]

Weezer is also my favorite band and he arranged this piece perfectly.

[DimensioneCaos]

:0 wow

[Blueracer]

A smile on my face and goosebumps deserves 5 stars.

[juanp0093]

this sounds like an elevator music. in the good way. this is amazing

[jthomp32]

fucking bad ass. crazy bad ass.

[TheGodfatherRulo]

amazing

[sveintoreh]

[BrennymanPage]

Crazy man, Inspired.

[penguinrancher]

WTF thats crazy awesome

[hayleighXsays]

damn you are good!!!!

[WhatsUpLau]

This is awesome

[leelleyah]

Haha.

You're amazing.

[jazzrudeboy]

beautiful arrangement, you may already be familiar with these players, but you may like to check out Laurence Juber and Tommy Emmanuel, two great fingerstyle guitarists. I think you would enjoy them very much.

[whitemousee]

great!

[foxthewolfie]

b e a utiful

[iulenny]

Seems like every song to you is a "hanging curveball" and you knock out of the park.

well done again

[lothartheterrible]

Wow, I never thought that song could actually sound soulful. As I said before, you have great feel.

[isaacyeah15]

omfg dude. seriously amazing!!!! amadeus2490 pretty much says it all!!

[yankees9494]

do you have sheet music for this? If you do, can you reply and then I will message you my email address.

[zabapete]

no way man, lovely stuff, perfect beach tune!

[amadeus2490]

Even though i'm a guy, I have an intense desire to bear your children after watching a few of your videos. This scares and confuses me deeply, but I still love your playing.

(lol)

[boinky333]

That's the power of music, my friend.

[coverfactory]

Adrian, you are awesome! I'd love you have your opinion about my cover of buddy holly. It is nothing compared to yours but it's in quite a different style, I rearranged all the instruments parts.

[cindy13rocks]

oh my goodness I have been trying to play classical guitar for about 3 years and I may have weeped a little. You are incredible
