Hi, I am Teddy. Once you read this you cannot get out. Finish reading this until it is done! As I said, I am Teddy. I am 7 years old. I have no eyes and blood all over my face. I am dead. If you don't send this to at least 12 people I will come to your house at midnight and I'll hide under your bed. When you're asleep, I'll kill you. Don't believe me?

@zorniza i dont have bed in my house -_-

how does it feel that a 9 year old chineese kid can play this better than yuo

[jeanluctatel]

@johnnyboy115599

I feel that you should wash your ears

The little Chinese has really good technique for his age but no feeling...

A robot would be even better for you. Made in China ;-)

But music is not just mechanics, it is especially feeling and emotion.

@johnnyboy115599 Who cares?

[saftelskeren]

@johnnyboy115599 that kid is 16 now..

[cooch555]

this is pretty fu... awesome!

[funnygirl4565]

i saw him live at my school today and i got to meet him

[GreatBonFire]

Really well played! But how come this guy and Andy McKee and Donn Ross and so on, all got exactly the same technics and kinda groove... well, about everything. Did they all have the same music teacher?

[halohater9]

@GreatBonFire because they are all talented....gareath peason is totally different than say andy mckee....two differents styles.

[uglycassanova2]

Gareth's version is more creative, harder to play, and emits much more emotion than Adam Rafferty's version. Saying Adam's is better just shows how jealous you are of Gareth's skills.

[NPC919]

Wait... That thumb control cannot exist o_o

[merelvh]

sooo great

[TheSchnizer]

Amazing cover!

[fogellee]

wow! i'm inlove!

[Babeman12]

I see a future tommy emmanuel, very promising

[TheBobnalyd]

The Caesars used to have a guy who every now and then whispered to him" You are not God" With the gift Gareth has who wants to apply for gig as whisperer?

I met him in Devon, England once and he is not God but one heaven of a guitaristr.

[kevin777god]

gareth is better

[phlr332]

Yep, Synco is at it again.

At least he keeps looking at these vids to pass comments. I really do hope GP disrgards evrything you say, in every video you post. BTW, I prefer this arrangement, and GP's Billie Jean in Italy. You can see how he's developing it all the time, never standing still. Way to go GP

[hicks727]

@phlr332 You're arguing about who plays a better version of BILLIE JEAN???...lol

[syncopater999]

Adam Rafferty's version is much superior and just feels more like a crafted and controlled acoustic guitar instrumental in its own right yet with the true essence of the song.

[XSianyxBabyx91X]

ahhhhhh gareth <3

[Blakemore1122]

For his age it is an amazing guitarist, and like always he played it well =) And I agree, Tommy should start to worry =p

[dannyoo2]

@Blakemore1122 check out Adam Rafferty, Billie Jean and you'll come to realize that eric clapton, jimi hendrix. joe satriani, tommy emmanuel and gareth already started worrying.

[baksteen123]

4:39 oops ^^

but overall it was amazing

[xto135]

Great original arrangement with groove to spare

[1lucho89]

I have a new favorite arrangement

Gareth is god

[norther12]

I think so

[jkodee]
