Rush - Tom Sawyer - Igor Presnyakov

[bobish75]

As a fellow guitar player I can really appreciate this guys skill. Anyone that dont like this video is just jealous of this guys talent.

[gvonderau]

29 people did not pass go and went strait to jail

[NoProofOfHell]

I tried to think of something clever to say, but I was so impressed with that version of Tom Sawyer that I couldn't think of anything

[jbyungwoo]

yyz agreed! so kickass...

[Knotton]

Do YYZ! :D That would be so fking epic

[insinuwait]

BRAVO!!!! PLEASE more Rush! That was awesome!!

[ariccatron]

Dumbfounded.

[Pedro2112tm]

Igor please play Spirit of the Radio or Freewill :D

[TheBigWitte]

Iggy plays the guitar with one hand better than the 2nd greatest player in the world can with both hands

[IANANIGGER]

Hey Igor, can you cover A Passage to Bangkok?

[Leafgreen1976]

Proof that there's aliens!



[jayson201]

should do a cover of Maggot Brain.

[cy9892]

why does this not have a million views....

[mfreemanification]

@cy9892 billion*

[cy9892]

@mfreemanification thanks I must have sneezed and hit the m instead of the b, but yes that's what I meant ha

[mlpokn12zaq]

is it just me or is it better than the original rush song??

[PIMPZproduction]

i always see these songs in the recommend bar, and i never think they can be done on acoustic, and he always proves me wrong

[terramonde]

unreal! how about a little story about your guitar life and how you got to be so great at it .

[guitarman6709]

igor > Chuck Noris



[autogplbm]

I didnt know that Slash have 2 faces;O

[lessismore]

how do you pronounce your name?

[DancingSpiderman]

Uncle Iggy, I'm marrying you, dammit !!

[Solar7647]

Ok, someone needs to send this to Alex, Getty and Neal..and tell them to take notes!

[aldebaranious]

Awesome! Awesome! Awesome! Awesome!

[Jamsessionroom1337]

I don't like rush but i like this, that says alot igor.

Iv'e been your fan ever since your original pirates of the caribbean theme!. :D

[DSMetallica]

2:28 DRUM SOLO :D

[toshias]

Igor is the best guitar player i have ever seen, but sometimes what he wears in his videos can get a little weird.

[de2010me]

what's strange is I never liked this song...until now! :-) Wow

[ProgBass666]

@de2010me how could you never like rush ! :o

[InsufficientBand]

Best Igor did so far!

[clpaishonus]

\o/

[bogdantheislander]

Do YYZ !!!

[oavel24]

If he had 2 spare hands he would play 2 guitars at the same time -))))

[rammsteinTOtheMAX]

He gets so into the song.. he kinda looks like Ron Jeremy

[kenhuped]

why does Iggy look like buckethead?

[DeushBag131]

Absolutely amazing.

[MagellanOfBass]

OMG HE'S PLAYING MY FAVOURITE BAND

-dies-

[nickaldana0]

wheres fucking amazing on your reaction

[MrSethwild]

his hat collection is almost as big as his swag level.

[2112Zeppelin]

3:57 Slappin' da bass mahn!

[2112Zeppelin]

When its played like this it actually evokes images of Tom Sawyer/Huck Finn and Mississippi......actually no it just evokes images of RUSH!!!!!! so few people can cover RUSH well and this is absolutely AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!

[jabrooonni]

If it was legal to marry a guitar, IGOR would have a ring on his finger.

[Seeminglyinnocuous]

used tissues for 2 reasons during this video..

[AdiGriTV]

omfg...I'm shaking my head, can't believe someone can play like this

[courageFFS]

@LRMMcDonnell jit choke?

[mutoss]

what a drum solo lol :)

[disclosurenow9]

Outfuckingstanding! Love the slaps. Hitting the subscribe button now.

[Shawity1]

loveee your music!

[nolandegroot]

thats is a freaking awasome hat thumbs up for that

[vlad59181]

You can't describe this in words

[316chad]

@vlad59181 Yes you can its chuck norris x Over 9000!

[bringmealong]

i have spent so many hours watching you !!!!

[Mariloww]

fuck this commercial in the beginning !

[PajaritaHG]

Awesomeeeeeeeeeeee as alwaysssssssssss !!!!!!!!!!!!! Congratulations Igorrrrrrrrrr

[TBONER069]

I have spent so many hours trying to play the guitar parts to rush....this is very impressive

[charliehustle141]

28 people are not modern day warriors

[jocarceles2]

Just bought your cd. Totally worth it.

[Xzero3384]

The hat would be better without the shine effect

[demourax]

S U P E R !

[MrJusticeDispenser]

i wish there was a "fucking love" button

[jarkre]

When Danny Gatton was alive he was known as "the world's greatest unknown guitarist". Nowadays that title should belong to this unbelievable man.

[Ramu6A]

my speakers broke due to them not being able to handle the divine noise coming through them.. and you think im joking.

[bb28cc]

cool hat

[GMBStillFree]

Igor you made a mistake you posted a rush live video...oh wait. :D

[anthstep]

totally cool! and that comes from a drummer!

[PoongWalrus]

Who knew Igor was also the monopoly man O.o

[NoiseMaker420]

@PoongWalrus Wonder what he does with his monocle while hes playing...

[DoctorDeadification]

@PoongWalrus

He does! Not to mention that 28 people couldn't pass "Go!"

[farwell420]

I wanna sit around the campfire with this guy!

[CatGoesBOOM]

@farwell420 i want to sit everywhere with this guy

[ale01223]

woooowww!!!!!! amazing !!! tarrraaanan taaaaaaannnn!!!!

[2soggysock]

wow rush would even jizz over this

[TheZidden]

DAT HAT

[TheManzinator]

He should play Closer to the Heart!

[joshdaugherty1111]

Not only does he play the guitar like a god, but he can sing as well.

[DarcHunter]

I get it now! That's where Slash got the Top Hat idea! D: I've been in the dark this whole time!

[PresAndrewJackson]

Mean mean stride...

[db2loud]

'' Get a load of this cat '', right on man, get down with your bad self !

[JordanNKelly2]

Holy crap! The beginning when he sang! I thought it was the recording! He's gooooood! What a legend!

[MarylandMadePunk]

Would Love to see Igor play Alice Cooper's School's Out!!! :D \m/ \m/

[Halo54345]

what i would really like to see Rush - La Villa Strangiato - Igor Presnyakov

[ICU2UQA8]

Alex Lifeson would be proud.

So underrated compared to Geddy and Neil.

[lfchavier]

Best Igor video in my opinion

[pagaldoc]

wow, versatility....good energy !

[TimMichrina]

Alex Lifeson disliked this 26 times

[grom1811]

@TimMichrina I think you are mistaken sir. I believe Alex Lifeson liked this over 2000 times.

[zgreney]

i will name my daughter Igor

[diecrazy]

All i have to say is that you smashed it Igor. Fantastic job i was fucking gettin into it. After hearing this once Im already dangerously close to learning your arrangement of this asap. This acoustic arrangement is just amazing.

[BuddhaMaster84]

Iggy pulls a blue note out of his hat

[LHM77surfer]

What I`m going to say????!!!!!...no words

[jaimerocharibeiro]

In my opinion this is the best cover of igor!

[cmharris211]

God just called, said he wants his guitar back!

[feetsko]

This is the best day of my LIFE!!! (wife slaps back of head) OUCH!!! sorry babe but it is!!

[shguitars]

"I wish I could play Tom Sawyer like Igor" - Alex Lifeson

[canadianmetalmaggot]

Igor Presnyakov...Best guitar player sicne Eternity

[craigyboy1974]

if i was given the choice of a million pounds or to be able to play like him i would choose the latter every time! thumbs up if you agree!!

[vanhalen161]

@craigyboy1974 orrrr you can use that million pounds to get some lessons :D

[craigyboy1974]

@vanhalen161 i play pretty well my friend, but all the lessons in the world couldnt show you how to replicate this guys genius! :)

[Batman4evah]

When i tried to play as he just did, one of my fucking guitar strings exploded on my hand and gave me a cut.

Lesson lerned

[Brandin604]

@Batman4evah Buy better strings?

[Batman4evah]

@Brandin604 No, it means that i shouldn't try to play something only a god can play...

[12345678926389]

very super play why you dont play with the electric ?

[jan279]

Buckethead of Acoustic Guitar Playing! LOL

[santyrush]

for me, one of the best Rush cover congrats.

[darthcrump]

alex lifeson would respect this guitar playing. respect igor, respect

[nnjjiiu]

Why did you steal the hat off my snowman? Cmon dude!!!

[HondaSuperSport1100]

[Jul10T]

[1979rickfukingjames]

[tillman40]

Community Chest! Ok somebody read it..

[Njchollas]

And there's still people who don't know those awsome covers of Igor... They're in parallel universe

[realkissable4eva]

I Love you IGOR!!!! You play amazing guitar!

[FlyingMarsmallow]

frickin' awesome!

[RonMailbox]

Closer to the heart!!!

[kristerkr]

does anyone know how does he do such a sharp and strong sounding hit (to mimic the drum part, that is) with his hand? it sound like the guitar is hit with a hard object, not his hand

[GetoCoolAid]

@kristerkr He's hitting it with his pick

[kristerkr]

@GetoCoolAid you mean the pick that is on his thumb?

[NitroVortox]

@kristerkr Those are called fingerpicks. Quite often used in spanish classical music.

[cod4gearsman]

neil pert would be proud <3

[RonMailbox]

@cod4gearsman I think you mean Alex Lifeson.

[JMLizardKing1971]

@cod4gearsman why neil hes the drummer

[Rushrulez2116]

@cod4gearsman You mean Alex Lifeson?

[lucaspires1998]

@cod4gearsman neil peart*

[tooch1995]

@cod4gearsman dont you mean alex lifeson dumbass? hahaha

[EdPosey]

wth with that plastic head?!?

[tdesnomie07]

i liked this vid so hard.. i punched downward on my mouse clicker and broke it. GG mouse.

[Mazeroot]

Awesome

[FrostSalonica]

If i played guitar like this my dick would have died from overfucking...

[dirtyharry07]

@FrostSalonica Igor doesn't need a dick. he fucks with his guitar

[SteamingBurito]

you know theyre a guitar god when they have Igor's epic stache and that they can play the guitar at the same level as Neil Pert

[slaughterwithlove]

I love how he gets into a character that suits the song for all his vids

[peterhatakekakashi]

Sungha Jung is the young Igor Presnyakov

[Woppros]

@peterhatakekakashi Sungha Jung will never be Igor because, among other things Igor is a great singer. Sungha Jung did not have a voice

[coffeesombi]

@peterhatakekakashi no

[kurosakinkun]

Few song you can actually, follow the chords

[wingmankhan2112]

Awesome :)

[Shadownes9173846]

Can I has teh top hat? :3

[cjgouin]

the hat is the best part

[romanon5]

very nice!!!

[tgstk2]

WOW!!! RUSH!! YEAH!! great cover, great choice of music!

[PHLmSTARinlol]

Master Exploder?!!  TOTALLY BEAT

[archiei]

Brilliant

[undertaker0492]

OMG i love your hat igor

[XxBlindedGuitaristxX]

He's absolutely the best Ive seen on acoustic, and ive seen McKee, Justin King (who is INSANE), and a few big name classical guitarists whose names escape me at the moment. He brings moar fun to the table and plays things people WANT hear even though he can beast out some Beethoven with perfect phrasing and shit. lol

[CrimsonDrift16]

brilliant ..

[1992Hando]

Отличное  исполнение молодец.

[karlehamel]

watching him play is waay more awesome than watching the original videos XD

[jammydodger87]

Iggy looks like the Monopoly guy!

[sailxonxmusic]

22 people can't play guitar. :)

[ferfmartinsmusic]

ACOUSTIC GUITAR GOD

[charlieg1337]

GREAT IGOR!!!!!! .......i really enjoyed that cover of a CLASSIC......nice drum solo too

[snowdoguk]

Very cool interpretation Iggy.. certainly got my musical juices flowing ... superb

[MrKon345]

Igor, it's great. We're waiting for "Slow dancing in the burning room" by John Mayer.

[loch70]

Now I must ask......How can anyone dislike this???? Its great in so many ways.

[MrGOFIRETRUCKYOU]

theres a way to save music at last.

that way is called Igor Presnyakov

[BILLYBOBSTUNES]

COOL BEANS BROTHER>>>>ROCK ON >>>>>>>

[bobcyclo]

@TThaoNgu That joke is already over used  lol

[Schufti17]

Please cover ocean by john butler:)

[DrumJP93]

Neil Peart would be proud



[kaaggz]

[EvilMeal]

3 words: EPIC!!!

[pcdnl]

waar haal je die hoed vandaan?? Wel weer geod nummer :)

[1DefyTheOdds1]

[dubettoni]
