12 year old kid plays Stevie Ray Pride and Joy on guitar

[mrlaurengrahamfan64]

AWESOME JOB!!!!

[Bridgeknapek]

Way to go Little Man! Flippen AWESOME!

[almostnormalCB]

nice shirt

[ashjk92]

That you even attempted this song shows you have balls. There are very few people that can play this song properly. Good job.

[wadekaptur]

Dosnt look like he's having fun at all, wonder if the parents have something to do with this :P ..good cover tho!!!!!

[jaron124]

OH SHIT IT'S ON REPLAY!!!

[fuzzyrhino5]

keep it up kid, it sounds great!!

[1SouthernThang]

Son, you have a great talent! What you decide to do with it is your choice. Just remember that it was God given. Great job, stay focused

[1raymondn]

pretty good man keep it up

[Foreverman1962]

You rock kid...Keep practicing and enjoying what you're doing and some day your hard work will pay off and you will be great...Happy New Year to you...Mike from Seattle...

[PARKOUR4USA]

Learning to play a song note through note is not having soul, the act of using a song you learned, preferably, then adding something of yours to it. Or you could write your own song. Do ya thing Stevie got to where he WAS by only LEARNING songs? But no matter the case the kid has skill in the guitar.

[morselax012]

@PARKOUR4USA Actually Stevie did get some where by "Learning" songs. There is a video here on youtube, I can't find it again but, if you look up "stevie ray vaughn interview" where he explains how his band picks a song to cover.

[Deedee8570]

Im 50 and have been playing since I was 12. You rock and keep it up. SRV was the best

[assssaaaac]

kid.... dont let these morons get to you... youll go as far as you want. just your confidence up and nothing will stop ya!!

[Apollo01504]

Keep playing kid, you've got a lot of potential to go far in music. Thanks for the video.

[Thealoo3]

Good for you,kiddo!!!

[aa435465]

You Rock!!

[txguy4u2001]

There will still never be a nother stevie ray, no one will ever sound just like him. Do u really think god puts people on earth, so they can sound just like each other.,Quit trying to copy others, use ur own talent

[framedinblood02]

@txguy4u2001 How about you shut up and do something, you angry, hard-headed American. This kid is 12, and look at him, hes brilliant. What the fuck have you done today ? besides flame a kid who's infinitely better than you. Quit being jealous of others, and use your energy towards something positive, like this kid.

[99MBowden]

there is know way this kid is 12 and i definently play this better than him and im 12

[melborn987]

@99MBowden well post your cover as a response. i'm sure we'd all love to see it big guy.

[framedinblood02]

@99MBowden Yeah, as melborn987 said, lets see you do better. Oh yeah, we wont ever see you do better will we, because you wont.

[watsonvillian]

@99MBowden I like how you pretended to misspell words just to troll. You have to be pretty sad to troll a kids video. I bet your an orphan or need a hug or something.

[afelps9515]

Man how i'd like to have had a guitar when I was 12 old :S

[1FenderGuy]

Get that KID SRV's STRAT!

[niksvideomachine]

fake player

[IronGreek13]

great song and nice guitar 

[CTLALICE88]

Nice vid, good tone. May i suggest a strat for Stevie? I think that they sound a little better for his music. Keep it up

[chele6173]

you rock!!! you will be a rock star one day.. your talent says so!.. I am impressed! :O)

[OMGsuperTAG]

[OMGsuperTAG]

[stanleyroadgu21]

[Jimmyj405]

Hey little buddy you rock !!! You picked a great song to practice on. Keep up the good work.

[ripride75]

[MrRussia1]

GOD DAMN!!! LOVIN IT!! lol you go kid

[6stringdooner]

having soul is being able to play what you feel...

[ooohanthonymunroe]

Most kids play guitar hero, this kids gonna be one 

[eConsultingGroup]

well, kid, I have learned something today. Thank you for that. All the best.

[fede64yt]

Kid... I'm 47 and despite I play since I was your age, I can't play like you do. Keep going and best of luck growing up with this talent... who knows, one day you may play next to Bonamassa :)

[Photon123451]

KEEP UP THE GREAT JOB KID SCREW THESE OTHER KNUCKLEHEADS

[shelliebellie3672]

i would like to hire him and his band for my next party. he is so adorable. i want to have party cake with him and his parents at my party...ha ha ha he is good. good job.

[zombywoof112]

You don't need soul to recreate a work note-for-note. However this is great playing and maybe this BOY will turn into a MAN and acquire some soul.

[shelliebellie3672]

@zombywoof112 he has more soul than you ever will. i mean really come on some of these comments from this brood of vipers.

[PoetryMamaJ]

WOW You have soul my son. Or you wouldn't be playing this...I am a BIG fan of you and Stevie Ray. Hey Stevie's spirit lives in your soul ! Bravo! Never give up your awesome talent young man.....Hope to hear more of you !!! :)

[21hj12]

smooth



[ridehard66]

excellent job!!!

[celtycblue]

O_O we're about the same age, dude! It's not faiiir, you were so groovy on a guitar even at 12 >.<

[Kimfosterga]

I think he did great. I quit listening to the real Stevie Ray video to come over here and listen to this one. Good job. :-)

[theFUTUREofCOMEDY78]

Rock on Little Man!

[mrj19681]

u are very good i love stevie ray keep up the good work

[newwattu]

guys! he sat down and learned the song what is not easy, especially in the age 12. so I think he does have soul, and passion about his music!

[MrDamanofdahouse]

hes 12? 

[misred1]

This kid loves to play and he plays well,if that's not soul then what the fuck is !!

[b679995]

Son, you are fantastic, the only thing that would have made it better is just a little less volume,, the some what distorted sound disguised your totally awesome abilities,,, I've been playing since 1963, therefore Believe Me, when I say, YOU ARE GOOD !!!!!!

[nznaturopath]

rock on, fantastic. good start mate, keep rocking.

[dairydave96]

damn kid with a guitar like that you need some AC/DC

[1718Moham]

veryyyyy good!!! better than me

[sfperkins36]

He's one of those precision players. Where he has no soul he only knows notes

[gabroguitar]

YOU NEED FEELING!

[theqman24]

THERES STILL HOPE

[culloa95]

only complaint is tempo, other than that, sick job little man. (:

[wowwaweewoooo]

Well from my personal experience you never get soul until you come back home after getting laid off at your job to find your wife in bed with your best friend Steve. Good job.

[Donjovi32]

@wowwaweewoooo lol

[JVileta]

Yeah!!!!



[RyanGlenYugioh]

You really need a little more soul to play this song, as others have said. Also you seem to randomly speed up and slow down during different riffs or phases. Plus playing that solo note for note just isn't right. When you play a Blues song, you have to put your own twist to it, make it your own, that's when the blues is really the blues.

Apart from that, pretty good, don't give up your dream if being a guitarist is what you really want to be, just heed the points here, and you're on your way.

[bigbearjen]

You're good but need more soul; more life experience!

[PcKSnipE]

Very well done, keep it up

[SummersMediaStudio]

loosie goosy baby, loosie goosy.

[SummersMediaStudio]

No soul? Yeah, he sold it to the devil....

[rdahlqvist26]

stevie would be proud

[roteskreuz83]

wow kid you put so many others to shame!

[panheaddan1]

give the kid his props , even if it is a lil robotic...his daddy tried to teach him, make him an internet star..

[bvaughn33]

Unbelievable. You're really gifted!!

[fun649]

You are great!!!How much would you charge to play at my birthday party?????I mean it...please!!!!You would stun everyone!!!!!e-mail me at snkmn37@att.net We will provide transportation,food,the hole nine yards!!!!Please think about it....we will set up a meet&greet and a sighning just like the big names

[txlastrebel]

you either have soul are you don't

[wildboyinlove]

dam kid u are so dam good girls will go wild u play in schools

[sonorcrusher]

Keep it up kid and you'll be better than all of them. The soul comes with age. Don't rush the licks, hang back and kick its ass. great job.

[CasillasM2112]

You did a great job man! I'm 20 and started playing when I was your age, keep on pluckin!

[CasillasM2112]

You did a great job man! I'm 20 and started playing when I was your age, keep on pluckin!

[Danielcwalk1]

REDNECK!!!

[adlibmusic]

Don't listen to the people who are putting you down. They probably couldn't play it as well as you did. You just keep playing. The "soul" will come. Good job!

[rastadeivid]

Nice!!!

but.... is like a Robot xD

[BrawnerStMonsters]

Well, from my personal experience you never get soul until your older or if you don't enjoy playing guitar then you'll never get soul. And when you know you have it you can slip in some SRV and get cold chills down your spine. It'll grow in time bro, keep up the good work.

[DieDumenGymnasiasten]

wtf...

[ilycali1]

Nice loved it sounded just like it

[Rainman316pwns]

Gotta have that soul man. You can play technically and practice all you want, but you gotta feel it!

[JDoubleOP]

@Rainman316pwns 12 yrs old what do you want more........give the guy 4 yrs more

[lmpietsch]

Dude! You rock! Carry on with your bad self!

[lowew79]

Forget the negative thats great for 12 year old, pretty good for any age! Keep at it! That's a heck of a nice guitar for a kiddo your age! Tell whoever bought it for you thanks! That axe will take you far!  (assuming its a Gibson, cant really see)

[happyfeetful]

but hes plain the gurtair pretty good

[happyfeetful]

well hes not really playing bcz if u listen to it same voice as another pride and joy another video

[cpu64]

I could practice for 12 years and still not be this good.

[juussttee]

You have a little tendency to fasten a little bit but except that it was great especialy at your age ... sorry for my english i'm from Quebec and i'm trying to speak english as well as i can !!!

[breakerboyiam]

the real version...

[MrRundmc22]

still he's pretty good

[MrRundmc22]

thats disrespect... playing stevie with an sg... and the funny thing is... HES GOT A STRAT TWO FEET AWAY FROM HIM!!!!! shame...

[oceano901]

you got talent kid keep it up

[DistortionCrazy]

no soul

[eXtremo1254]

@DistortionCrazy he's young how can u pretend that yet ^^?

[estandard1]

@DistortionCrazy he's 12! Soul comes with miles. Where you born with soul? Word of advice..Go back to the woodshed hammer out some metallicats and keep your destructive criticism to yourself:)

[DistortionCrazy]

@estandard1 he looks like hes having no fun or anything im mean hes good but come on at least smile or move

[boltsandblades]

@DistortionCrazy man, don't you all know that you only get your soul at the age of 14 I'm sure he's got it by now....

[artem2510]

@DistortionCrazy He's 12, don't be a dick. Most likely his parents put him up to this. But I'm not gonna lie he doesn't play it with much feeling.

[artem2510]

@DistortionCrazy He's 12, don't be a dick. Most likely his parents put him up to this. But I'm not gonna lie he doesn't play it with much feeling.

[fps110]

@DistortionCrazy hes fucking 5, he just was taught how to play this instead of the ABC's, he doesnt know what soul is yet

[DistortionCrazy]

@fps110 5?????????????????? he's 12 dickhead. maybe if you can read you wouldnt be acting like a motherfucking whore. There are plenty of other videos of pride and joy with kids who actually have soul. This kid is good but he needs to just move or somethin so why dont u shutup and go crawl back in ur cave, YOU TROLL!

[fps110]

@DistortionCrazy listen you fucking blowhard, stop talking shit on the fucking computer, the only thing it proves is that your penis is smaller then your brain and you have no intelligence, if you couldn't understand the simple point of exaggeration that was trying to be made by saying that he is five. Go back to your room, slam your dick some more, and keep watching other people play the guitar better then you can. you stupid bitch

[MrTrollinful]

@fps110 umad?

[DistortionCrazy]

@fps110 O u really hurt my feelings. :,(

Hey look at the dislike bar and then ur penis see the resembelence??

[fps110]

@DistortionCrazy you sound even more stupid then you did before haha, your a joke

[DistortionCrazy]

@fps110 its funny how many people are on my side and i see 4 dislikes on ur comment.:) ur so fucking stupid! i just wanna fucking put u in my garbage disposal! Like anyone would care. i bet ur just sitting there with ur boyfriend making out and fucking. Then u probably go around trolling videos like a fucking faggot.



[fps110]

@DistortionCrazy what're you saying you fucking idiot? but hey i dont really give a fuck what you say, or anyone else on youtube? maybe you do, but your also as dumb as a fucking tree stump.

[dave8386]

@DistortionCrazy

Psh. Who are you to say are you to say I don't have a soul! You're not God, sir. ;)

[DistortionCrazy]

@dave8386 haha i didnt mean it in a bad way i was just saaying maybe u need to move around a little or something. Ur a really good player too. :)

[soundersfan530]

@dave8386 no he's right, no soul

[dave8386]

@soundersfan530

Bro, I think you should calm down. I never understand you people who actually try to insult people on their videos. Like you really have to try to be a douche on YouTube. I've never gone to ANYONE else's video and said anything negative, ever - no matter how bad it is. Even if it's bad I'll tell them they did a good job.I mean I always ignore you kids cause I know I've got like 400 anti-trolls in this comment section ready to counter-troll you, but come on. Grow up dude.

[boricubano2005]

@DistortionCrazy if u can play this. and then rewind time to abooooout when u were hmmmm... 12?! then don't talk down to a little kid like that... SRV is SRV for a reason and the fact that he can play this is amazing! keep it up Dave, i'll sub and prove him wrong

[ihaveaverybadcold]

@DistortionCrazy hes 12 bitch

[manny123041]

@DistortionCrazy

trolls



[manny123041]

@DistortionCrazy

How can you say that, he is just 12 years old, losers. Bet he out plays most of you trolls. Good job young man and keep on rocking.

[superbuds0714]

Plays better than your average 18year old, im 18years old : (

[MrWarensemble]

keep in rocking kid....ure the next bonamassa:)

[REIDSRAGE]

Dude your incredible. Very nice. I was twelve when this video was put up lol so I can imagine your damn good now.

[hrpuffinstuff459]

Kid....YOU ARE HOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[zombieX111222333]

@hrpuffinstuff459 you re pedophile!!!!!!!!!!

[lewissmith1996]

Fabulous! How far is this kid gonna go!

[TheMusicvent]

Props for the humble song choice!! Nice to see my nice Epi. SG featured, too! Just watch out for the verses, they tend to rush

[josedavac]

Wow I'm amazed and still trying to figure out the song lol

[astrocriden1]

Great job honey!! You have some great talent, and if you can play SRV now, you can achieve greatness. Good luck!

[gearhead22996]

this is awesome

[StratPlayer4Life]

that needs to be played on a strat...not an sg

[noobsrus21900]

WOW

[MrSambuckner]

its called TONE get some

[THEJTODAK]

@MrSambuckner id like to see u play better, leave the kid alone

[ZeStealthyPwn]

@MrSambuckner Dick. You need to take it out of your ass.

[thepointlessdude]

This is such a hard song to play to perfection, obviously this isn't perfect, as with tempo and some missing notes, but nobodies gonna get that. Your a prodigy for your age, keep up the amazing work!

[MRSAMBONE2332]

And feel like one

[kurwafacken]

that's awesome kid keep it up and you'll go far

[CainGrady]

Great job kiddo!

[Godzyla]

Felicitaciones que bien si Stevie estaria vivo tocarias con el!!!!!!!!

[OUSoonerinDFW]

The kid's got the stuff.

[mayvergara97]

MOCOSO TOCAS RE BN FELICITACIONES

[MrSQUABify]

For a 12 year old this dude rocks balls.

[marditochitaum]

Why you don´t use a Stato, on your side?

[KateriJ1]

he plays soooo good. this is coming from another musical talented person (im the logged on persons granddaughter i play sax, flute, spoons, drums, guitar, trumpet, an i also sing a little)

[pbownsu]

Wait till he actually finds a girl. He'll play with soul.

[Ferguccio]

Nice one...thanks :)

[Cbluesrocker]

Everybody saying stuff like "you go buddy! You'll get it perfect with practice", This was recorded 4 years ago (which makes him 16 now). I'm pretty sure he's gotten it by now...

[musicmad67]

@Cbluesrocker............and..­..........

[Cbluesrocker]

@musicmad67 Well its just a little pointless. that's all. haha

[LSUsuperBuick]

good kid, eventually get that muted scrape down with the verse and you'll get it down perfect!

[aryannacupcakezz96]

thats amazing!! you rock kid and as long as you are listening to stevie i think you are pretty amazing keep it upp love!!

[nwilson59]

alright, this kid rocks. therefore i think he deserves a better guitar, im guessing he likes the SG, so get him an SG standard. thats what i got, it rocks.

[iamiupa]

he should die 'cuz he uses an SG o a Fender Artist's song!!! D:

[nwilson59]

@iamiupa you can still get stevie's tone out of them, if you use the right amps, pedials, and pickups

[iamiupa]

@nwilson59 oh c'mon man I was just kidding!!! He rocks!!!

[ausroar]

Well done kid! Take your chance while you still have it! Not like me! You are a god for me in guitar! Go!

[11sophie3]

wow !

[mzzvaughan]

WOW! YOU ARE ROCKIN AND BLUESIN! STEVIE WOULD BE SO PROUD!

[FieryBob]

Kid, don't use your age as a handicap. I wouldn't care if you were 6 years old or 60 years old and doing this. It's okay to put covers up, but just don't put your age in the description or title.

[mzzvaughan]

@FieryBob GREAT ADVICE, I TOTALLY AGREE!

[fructmals]

nothing, but cool

[skunksnag]

DAMMM...hes automatic MONEY$

[patrickfisichella]

Simply amazing! ;-)

[popgunparadise]

[NegmaDeath]

Rock on little dude

[ccal2284]

144 people had a failed guitar spin

[tallicafan25]

Holy cheese dude! That's something that I've been trying to get for years, and I havnt really got any of it now :/. If I dont see you on T.V. or rockin out at a concert, then I'm going to be angry. Some serious talent man!

[tomoulevou]

shit... don't try to cover SRV unless u are 18+

child do it with no hard hand and lot of distored sound because of that

[Dazzerx]

@tomoulevou fuck off

[CAMBARICO]

[sbumgardner1]

I am never picking my guitar up again.

[ateras360]

@sbumgardner1 LOL me either........wow this kid RAWKS!

[NewBoundProductions]

@sbumgardner1 why



[a7xpfred]

[OHUHAHEH]

You suck...

[007HubbaBubba]

Totally Awesome!
