Pure Imagination (arrangement) by Helen Marshall - Dracapalley

[MrBirthdayCA]

Im transferred to a whole new world when i hear this song

[Gggmanlives]

simply amazing. great cover

[crazychilidog]

Excellent cover! However, I refuse to pay $5 for the tabs. That's a bit over the top.

[Gossipnastar]

@gdawgc311 IKR!!! :D

[GreatGibdo]

Great sound! I might add this to my sleep-ambiance music. That's a good thing- means it relaxes me, of course. :)

[Game4Power]

Elevator: Source

[gdawgc311]

@Game4Power the best room by far

[Sean0fWar]

but..will it blend ?!

[epicGhillie]

@Sean0fWar That was a stupid comment.

[Sean0fWar]

@epicGhillie lick my ballsack?

[epicGhillie]

@Sean0fWar Sure. That comment wasn't even appropriate for this video, can a song be blended?

[Sean0fWar]

@epicGhillie It was just a joke, if you knew your way around youtube, you would understand. So please dont come at me, bro.

[epicGhillie]

@Sean0fWar I already know how the joke goes, but it wasn't funny here.

[JackXIII]

I love you... This Acoustic Cover is just purely beautiful.

[ShallowShine]

to bad everyone on earth plays guitar now.

[jinetenc]

I imagine as my heart stops beating and the life drains away, this starts to play... and I slowly float away like a child's lost balloon ...

[vs1680]

Awesome keep it up

[irsunshine49]

[zer08927]

If I could make an arrangement of a song and make it this beautiful I could be satisfied with my entire life.

[darknight2952]

[SirJaaaayVeeee]

Hands down, best acoustic cover on Youtube. This video still has me coming back to listen to it-- even after months.

[NappyBoi559]

You are amazing, best cover of this song i heard, i listen to it everyday. GREAT JOB!!! =]

[rocktomic]

I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY THERE ARE DISLIKES ON THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!! THIS IS AMAZING! GAVE ME CHILLS!

[MsDOVE3]

[rob062388]

I always loved this song. Now I'm starting to love your arrangement of it even more.

[Docdoom07]

Amazing tone, very well done

[Sadrumet]

in love !!!

[Oecobius]

Wonderful playing, I just wish the recording were a bit louder and crisper to do it justice.

[bucktkd]

will you marry me? *__*

[NDawgHoyt]

Wow, I'm not usually one for guitar stuff, but that was gorgeous. I've been putting off learning the guitar because I suck at it compared to piano... I definitely need to get back on that though.

[ImaLittleStitious]

This is so pretty. I could see this being played in a pristine coffeehouse. Beautiful.

[That0neguy01]

This cover sounds mexican. lol nothin wrong with that just sayin (:

[thomasf]

[Superminyme]

[haydenoleary]

really good! would sound nice with a bossa nova type rhythm

[fonzaloon]

Very beautiful... I really enjoy this. By chance do you plan on doing a cover of Eleanor Plunkett? Just asking because I see you've done some other songs by Turlough O'Carolan. Thanks!

[sheepsaybaaa]

that was incredibly beautiful... I love that song and I'm going to try my best to learn it now I've heard that (not been playing guitar long though)

thank you

[TheLeeBowski]

Helen,

This is simply amazing. Really touching. Awesome play.

Thank you for bringing me back this piece of my childhood, and congratulations for your nice technique.

Keep going on and show your plays to the world. Living gets easier and nicer with gifts like yours.

Cheers!

The most soothing sound I've listened to for a long, long time...

[Teetyducks]

[Chrysostomus99]

Really lovely.

[jacobsk8er1]

Holy sweet baby jesus that was amazing

[JourneymanofShred]

If beauty, love, peace, and happiness could be described through music, this would be that description. I absolutely love this piece, and this was a spectacular rendition. Amazing. =D

[MrAbbo09]

I've watched this video so many times. its amazing.

[valdezxyz91]

[vaginapunisher]

[GearFiend]

Never though I'd say somthing like this but...

THIS WAS BETTER THAN BUCKETHEAD!!!

[Captnplatnum]

BRAVO!!!!



[TheEdelweissPirate]

Fantastic...... been looking for a decent version, going to download the tab as well.

[DressCode2005]

Home girl KILT IT BRAVO!

[StylophoneZones]

helen i downloaded the tab and am unable to open it cant u put it somewhere on the internet instead?

[Dracapalley]

@StylophoneZones Hi, you need to download the free tabledit viewer to access the tab. The links are on my channel. Helen

[StylophoneZones]

@Dracapalley thanks helen its ok tho i figured it out now :D just took me a while to realise the tuning for it x

[laurenandy]

i love this!

[FlashWadderz]

this is fantastic, absolutely stunning, takes me back to watching the film at my grandmas when i was a kid, i always wanted to go crazy in the room where you could eat anything! :)

[makimakiman]

11 people dislike because they can't play as beautifully as you can. Someone's JEALOUS! lol you keep playing and I'll keep listening. (^^)v <3 makimakiman

[KillerRyu3]

I am speechless.

[TheKingOfWalls]

holy shit.

[toneraynger]

That's truly beautiful, how could anyone in their right mind dislike this, they must have had terrible childhoods???

[MarcoAJuarez]

I loved this song ever since I heard it in Willy Wonka, but your rendition is absolutely the most gorgeous arrangement of anything that I have ever heard. I have searched for music that fits me and the emotion that courses through my heart, but I've never found it...until now....

[MzRaj]

Oh. My. Gosh.

Helen, this is possibly the most beautiful piece I've ever heard. If not, then easily top 3. I was immediately entranced and can't stop listening. It's got some whimsy, a romantic feel, elicits feelings of memory, and just so lilting and hypnotizing.

I am a novice guitar player, but I am getting your tabs and song as soon as possible.

I can't stop listening to this.

Thank-you for posting such beautiful music for free!!!

[Dracapalley]

@MzRaj Thank you very much :0)

[AlecLoso]

wow you have left me saying, you are so gifted and talented thank you for sharing this piece with the world i couldn't be more impressed by such an exquisite performance

[kmc56]

Just beautiful.  Thanks.

[eureka7123123]

Hey i jsut have a quick question How do you sound the harmonics so welll im having with that and tahts the only part im getting messed up on :S please reply D: sounds o good i wanna learn the WHOLE thing !

[Dracapalley]

@eureka7123123 Hi, not sure I can help more than the video does... are you making sure you cover the harmonic point with your first finger? I use my first finger to fret it and my ring finger to pick it. And, are you sure you're fretting at the right harmonic point? Don't forget that the capo on the first fret moves the harmonics up a fret too.

[gypsyariana]

This is absolutely sublime. Thank you for sharing your talent!

[rhymeskill]

I would like to download this, is there a way? Could you email me the MP3? I love this song and your playing is beautiful.

[Dracapalley]

@rhymeskill Thanks for the interest. Please follow the links I've already given in the info.

[oxsketchaox]

im in love

[RyanXHavok]

Brilliant :)

[Howyerd]

I was curious, I looked at your tab that you have, and is it in standard tuning? Because I play it with a capo and it just doesn't sound the same at some points but it does in others, get back to me if you can

[Dracapalley]

@Howyerd No, it's in CGDGBD, capo on 2

[eh2erik]

Fantastic arrangement! You're great at what you do! keep it up!

[MrMarmarJones]

Absolutely beautiful.

[uncledennis]

i hated this song in the movie. always have. but this is just beautiful.

[Wongsquared]

Best guitar version of the song ive ever heard.

[BlueSinnerX]

Wow, this is simply amazing!

[pfslow]

>The inlay is different.<

Guild used different rosettes over the years. The video is not clear enough to tell - could even be a Mark II. A clear pic will tell me what and when made - and if Guild.

Guild headstocks are all shaped the same - if the correct shape, it is a Mark II or III. I have bought and sold over the years.

If Guild, it can only be a II or III. The Mk I has a mahogany top and the IV, V, VI & VII all have ebony fretboards.

If you have good pics, email me pfslow(at)aol.com

[pfslow]

Is that a Guild Mark III?

[Dracapalley]

@pfslow I was going to say straight off 'no', because we've never known what make it is, it not having any label. But just googled and it does look similar. I wonder if there's any way to find out. Do you have one, and does it sound like this? It doesn't play like a classical at all, I don't know why. Can't put my finger on it. The bottom range has massive sustain.

[Dracapalley]

@Dracapalley Have looked at further pictures, this isn't a guild mark III. The inlay is different.

[elvis123327]

Thanks, Helen. I downloaded the TablEdit viewer and all is good. Any idea how this will sound on a steel string? I plan on surprising my bride with this song. I have 200 days until our wedding, so I better get started. Do you know of any software I can download that will make me play as well as you? If not, I guess I will have to rely on your version for inspiration. Thanks again and Happy New Year!

[elvis123327]

That was a stellar performance. Your phrasing and finger work are truly a gift. Congratulations.  I've tried downloading the tab to no avail. It is a tef file, and for some reason I cannot open it. Any chance of you emailing me the tab. I'd love to play it at my wedding. Thanks.

ebstiles@nyc.rr.com

[Dracapalley]

@elvis123327 Hi, and thanks. For the tab you'll need to download the frew .tef viewer. I give the link to this in the info below the video. This is the only format I have the tab in so even if I e-mail it to you, without downloading TablEdit viewer, you won't be able to open it. Hope this helps and good luck at your wedding. :)

[RJV6390]

I wish i could play like that. I cant even tune my strat right. lol

[DomIstKrieg]

Very nice.

[VskitzophraniaV]

Simply amazing. You are very good

[GnBDevine08]

This is absolutely beautiful. Tears fall off my face while listening to this. Great cover.

[bananadan34711]

[CAK11891]

THANK YOU FOR THIS! Just downloaded the Mp3! So beautiful!

[mkillen182307]

[billyspleen1636]

Is there a repeat button? :} 

[AlexeiStukovDIES]

By far the best version I've heard. Wonderful.

[baildpj]

If someone had told me this was Earl Klugh Playing I would not have doubted it.

[guyclement100]

Bonjour belle helène
