Résume tout en un mot : SCOTCHANT !!!

''If i could fly'' Bah en tout cas ça m'a fait planer :D

J'espère que tu ne t'arrêtera jamais de faire des covers ! =)

[aninstrumentalvision]

Excellent. I don't know how people can criticize this at all.

[goalieno51]

Well at least the u got the melody right

[salmonator231]

There's Jack Thammarrat from Thailand and THEN NEO shows up Dude you absolutely SHRED, Well Done, Props to you.....

[shredwire]

Two thumbs up!!!

[RazePT]

that guitar back there looks like an ibanez rg321ex :D

[alexmunn36]

I like this version of the song it's really good :)

[ThePODXT]

Lo sacaste como coldplay ._. pero es bueno!!

[weka]

Great cover with your own interpretation. Amazing technical ability, but like a painter who paints exactly like a photograph. Loosen up. Get more raw. Lose control a bit. Get rough around the edges. Let's hear those frets and some of your own work!

[muwarriors]

lo siento de verdad, pero tu version hace que se paresca mas a la cancion de coldplay xD no pude evitar decirlo, muy buen cover!! espero poder tocar como tu algun dia :)

[SymbolicNickolaus]

So much guitars T^T GIMMIE ONE

[kakkashin]

You must be one of the most coolest persons to ever have lived on earth

[sermagotf]

muy buena técnica!!!! woh! jejejej ..Te invito a que escuches nuestra canción: Sergio Martín y Milo - I feel our spirit.

(En mi canal)

Un saludo guitarrista....

[pursuerKelvin]

o.o awesome lml  !!!!!!!

[fuzzo73]

Wow man, I'm floored. That was fantastic. I see some people commenting on the squeals but it's your take on the song after all, and I think it adds another layer to the uplifting vibe of the original. This is my favorite Satch tune and it's a pleasure to hear someone NOT murder it. Cheers to ya!

[MrProg]

amazing phrasing and harmonies! My congrats to you, I love when somebody not only covers a song but puts into it something that makes it an unique render...

[jfpbman]

this...is...awesome!!! man! your´re insane!

[PunkxLove94]

Great work! But I didnt like the squealies that much :(

[TheRockClassicfan]

my only complain on this one is its meant to be a relazing, flowing and smooth song. while PH's are beast in metal riffs, for a song like this i winced every time i heard one... just my opinion tho

[kangtheconqueror]

Nice job Arnaud. You've captured the essence of the song without copying it note for note. (Always more interesting to me. There's far too many trying to BE Joe... and failing)

I'll put an hour or two to one side to listen to more of your vids over the weekend. Thanks, K.

[TheSublimeIbanez]

With your soul laid out on the fretboard, I can see you're insane!!!! And I like it lol...

[TheSegundoman]

Yes maybe a little closer to the original, however he does do Joe's Flying in A Blue dream quite well!

[moezart94]

This was completely AWESOME!!! but can u do the original?

[njous]

omg wtf..pro!:D

[TheSegundoman]

Awesome Work !! Love that Eclipse , Exellent playing skills, I bow to thee,,

[TheSegundoman]

Awesome Work !! Love that Eclipse , Who is this Guy ?

[TheSegundoman]

Awesome Work !! Love that Eclipse

[123maxmg]

[Dukebox69]

Brilliant playing! Nice vid

[tokotoko80]

exelente

[TheLordOfCoal]

What amp do you use?? to sound like Satch

[darklord11211]

love ur guitar

[Radhazardman]

The Ec-1000's are absolutely amazing. The harmonics of the pickups and the ease of playing is just absurd. You being a great player helps too lol. I can't wait to get one of my own. I miss the cool colors they used to offer though

[MrSwappa]

That was perfection!

[RAINQ1]

nice nice best wishes from POLAND ;)

[nosoyjuanchopancho]

All these guitars on your videos are yours? O_o Because you have a lot buddy .by the way... you rocks man! you have awesome technique:D

[roji556]

Awesome cover but I noticed you didn't do the lead in from the guitar cut into the large solo. Personal choice I guess?

[MetalGuitarist96]

YOU ARE EXCELLENT! CONGRATULATIONS MAN!!!!!

[Ausa7xtin]

you play like zakk wylde

[1234meeka]

@montejano760 thats actually an ESP Eclipse II VB

[gibtube88]

SKILLS!!!



[samrooks123]

dude sick cover :P i was thinking of getting that guitar...or an esp in general...any recommendations??

[montejano760]

@samrooks123 That guitar is an esp ltd ec1000, they are sooo sick, but kinda pricey ($800) you can find deals out there tho

[parkerflyz]

Da Bomb

[parkerflyz]

Two words. The Shit

[Metalclub1]

1.06 ??

WTH ? !!

[Kenti59400]

MOn gars, t'es un fou, rien à dire, putains d'impros (Si ça en est), tu me donnes envie de vraiment la bosser :D Go FAVS

Kepp it up ;)

[MetalGuitarist96]

EXCELLENT YOU ROCK!!!

[ravenwings100]

love all your music i follow all your stough bro great job

[gorazdmircevski]

all guitars are ESP. why?

[justinsaidso]

can anyone tell me how to make that really high pitched sound?

[gemzs]

@justinsaidso tengo la misma pregunta

[CessnaPilot4Fun]

Damn man that was fun to watch! You make it look effortless. Great job, thanks for sharing.

[Aaarrrggghhification]

Nice guitar

[georgewilliam26]

cool guitar

[tutotatik]

awesome bro i like thumbs up and favorite =D

[deputy019]

I like this!  Absolutely amazing.

[louloutton]

salut arnaud!!!si tu veux que j enleve mon commentaire video,c ok!!!je comprendrai car elle ne vau en rien ta version si belle ^^bon courage pour la suite ^^

[PhilosopherOnWeed]

Your a great guitarplayer, but sometimes there is a bit too much tasteless shredding in it...like in this song. But no offence, just a lil bit criticism, cause overall your a great player.

[defnist47]

@PhilosopherOnWeed A lot of people say that about Vai and Satriani heh

[PhilosopherOnWeed]

@defnist47 Well I think Vai and Satch always have a flow in their stuff. It's very melodic and Vai's stuff even spritual...it isn't tasteless at all.

[4Kars]

nice feel, but far too many harmonics imho

[falo21]

you are an awesome guitarist, but honestly i didnt like your version of this great song>>>>anyway keep posting my friend

[GibsonLesFat]

Nice shredding. Nice cover. No words can describe your tone and accuracy man.

[gorazdmircevski]

all guitars ESP, why?

[killtank3]

Great cover. but you ruin the sound with too much harmonic bro.

[dazzgc]

great cover, you still kept the feel of the original nice work

[crowofwraith]

a knock off of my guitar. i got a

'76 gibson les paul with gold hardware. its fucking sweet

[Adamisarocker09]

@crowofwraith and ESP is a "knock off" how exactly? they based the eclipse on a singlecut/LP body style with a deeper cut away for better fret access from 15-22 and ESP is more of a metal player's guitar - thats why its stocked with EMGs.

[crowofwraith]

@Adamisarocker09 the eclipse body, neck and headstock are all based on the les paul style. n my les paul has the exact same cut away. the only difference is really the pickups. which yours are made for a really distorted metal tone. while my humbuckers are made for a less distorted rock tone. same guitar. different pickups. except mines a lot better in that its a 76 les paul black beauty custom with gold hardware. however thats purely aesthetic. how you like a guitar to play is purely opinion.

[Tsoglani55]

ESP eclipse <3 ;p awesome playing too

[patrickb421]

this is way better than the original great job man the amazing runs and licks add more tension and feeling in the music

[neon290984]

great cover and nice sound

[DaveyKrechtner]

Got some wicked harmonics in there man and I like the overall approach. A really different version but still retaining the original vibe - well done!

[torvs]

wow it's so cool i want to learn it ryt now i really like the way ur finger speed it's good

[silvercool2k]

not bad... more melodic parts??? melody on one string???

[LoKo4028]

its one of the best improves i´ve ever seen your are amazing dude....!!!!

[md1053]

well this is an improvisation on the song chords more than a cover, totally metal inspired totally different... good play anyway

[collin292]

urh...I hate those robotic bends.....up.down.

and too many harmonics.

Other than that, AWESOME.

[inkcredile12]

great work mate, how long it take you yo learn?

[tomaatje1]

Impressively bloody awesome!!!

[MrSmarties00]

ouch........... your a master..hope you will be my teacher in guitar..hehe

[OctaveJuice]

Fucking awesome cover!

[bibana06]

De toutes tes vids que j'ai regardé, c'est sans doute ma préférée!

[mewtwo064]

Very well done, love the improvision ^_^

[JuanMarzolJuan]

You're incredible...!!

[alejandro3561]

[Dollymayfrosty]

It makes me want to learn how to play guitar. And I play piano, mainly classical music. xD

[tye2teb]

with paul gilbert shreds^^

[mehdiway]

Man !!! T'es un vrai génie toi ! Et je dis pas ça juste paske tu joue la guitare comme un magicien mais aussi paske t'a ton propre style ... et ton solo passe-partout XD je suis sûr que tu sais de quoi je parle :D

Je préfére tes version aux original, méme si t'en fai un peu trop (pinch harmonic ...) mais ca te caractérise des autres;)

Reste comme t'es :D

[mehdiway]

Man !!! T'es un vrai génie toi ! Et je dis pas ça juste paske tu joue la guitare comme un magicien mais aussi paske t'a ton propre style ... et ton propre solo ;) je suis sûr que tu sais de quoi je parle :D

J'aime tes version aux original, méme si t'en fai un peu trop (pinch harmonic ...) mais ca te caractérise des autres;)

Reste comme tu es :D

[labizzarerie]

ah,encore et toujours,la source de tout mes phantasmes,ta esp ec 1000...

magnifique (la guitare et ta cover^^) et bravo(la,qu pour la cover XD )

[MrRedhot24a]

[guleerter]

[SoulClearance]

You are a wonderful guitarist.

I was surprised！

[LCFojomen]

superbe ... encore une fois j'ai envie de dire :) es tu content de cette guitare ?? parce que je compte peut-etre m'en acheter une et j'aimerai avoir avoir ton avis ... si ça te déranges pas :)

[dg8383]

Ca c'est de l'arrangement !!

Well done m8

[christianccpa]

Much difference between "esp eclipse" and "esp ltd ec 1,000"?

Good job!! :)

[boricuazenho]

awesome shreding :)

[indrajem7vwh]

this is really nice improvisation. he has some metal musician image and he did the metal touch on this beautiful song of satch. very nice phrases too. i'm a true blue vai, jem7vwh, carvin legacy, tc electonics g system, jemini, bad horsie, etc freak, but i enjoyed this a lot!

[mhmosher13]

wow....that was incredible. Better than the original, IMO.

[nasyasatch]

Too much pinch harmonic i thing, but this is awesome dude !

killer guitar ! \m/

[Nabotics]

@nasyasatch No such thing as "too much pinch harmonic"... Play the whole thing as pinch harmonics.

Also, you frigging rock, Arnaud. I actually like this better than the original.

[AnonymousCrexis]

As good as the original song. Once again i watch in great admiration.

Franchement t'es mon modèle de guitariste =P. Un jour faudra que je te rencontre x)

[bringeroftruth]

Ive watched a few of your videos just a min ago, been feeling down in the dumps a bit and well i will say my spirit is lifted your an amazing guitarist (which im sure you've heard a million times) any way you have a new subscriber my friend Thank you and keep up the work.....p.s buying the ltd deluxe ec-1000 very soon

[guitarmetal91]

that was fuckin unbelievable!!!!!!! amazing skills dude, congratulations.

[MrWalterorlando]

you are fucking good!!!one of the best player on you tube

[Youkz]

Nice video, awesome technique and originality.

Great interpretation x) ~

Different but amazing =d

[IshiroJ]

Salut, j'adore trop ton arrangement sur cette chanson ca le fait grave, c'est de l'art !

[mytagisWVU69lolz]

seriously though fuck coldplay....

[XXxZAKKxX]

That guitar is just sexy, in every way shape and form...what kind is it?

[calebjeoung]

Those pinch harmonics are fregen hot!

[nickfrompinebeach]

Great job, but you ruined it like Steve Morse ruins Blackmore's parts in Deep Purple music.

[preston6671]

I trhink you F()())(I^$%&%$# ROCK wow!!!!

[squattingmachine]

HEY MAN... COLDPLAY COPIED THIS SONG!!!! LOL just kidding :P crazy cover!

[Shariga]

WOW im shocked, this was nicely done. good job

[xsaber103x]

Very interesting variation, that's for sure... nice job man.

[GorancicAdi]

i love the waev at 1:08 buahaha =D EPIC ...

a whammy would be perfect there =P

[Cabella87]

incredible sweeping

[fanming103]

2:17nice

[rollaflip]

A very unique and well done version of one of Joe's masterpieces. Great job dude!

[milciadescastillo]

Not "overdone". Very good indeed.

[foowad]

very powerful..nice nailpolish but doesn't suit the song...

[zumwink]

it's very good ! You have a great style!!



[02Awesome]

Great cover. Take off the nail polish bracelets and shit though it would look a lot better

[Josheph90]

 FUCK YEAH! hahahaha man magnifique cover.. just . excellent I.. loved the style that you put into this song :D!! keep rockin dude

[TheDamnedNation]

nice!! i love it!!!

[Sojourneer]

@NeoGeo Cause it is awesome but could have been great. Fav'ed cause I liked it, fav'ed cause I want to revisit it at leisure.

[Sojourneer]

Awesome chops, but overdone. More story, more arc...

[NeoGeofanatic]

@Sojourneer If you find it overdone, why did you put it in your favs? ^^

[Moonbox1119]

@NeoGeofanatic lol , did he?

[Dollymayfrosty]

@NeoGeofanatic That's not overdoing it, that's adding his own style in. I LOVED IT! It wouldn't've been as special if you'd done the cover exactly the way Joe did. I love this! :D

[soulplatos]

@Sojourneer LOL and hes playingw hat satch did....looser.

[tas9195]

@Sojourneer yeah it doesn't sound exactly like satch but it was still awesome. Vai wouldn't play this song exactly like the original if he covered it. that is what makes everyone unique. great job man. love the vids. I am looking to get the EC 1000. sounds great what emgs are those. I have the ZW set I want to put in there.

[gathyman]

fuck, cop that satch mate!

[pingpongpin]

Dude, this is soo insane!

Love the cleanliness of your sweeps, tapps and hell, all of your playing!

Keep on posting

[ZomBLord]

A beautful song by Satch (written for his wife dontchaknow)

Somehow, you remind me of Alexi Laiho. I can't decide whether it's those ESPs, the nails, the tapping, or the sweeping, but you're style's a lot like his.

[heavenhell4]

awesomeee

[iliecostin]

now this is something else

[Hardboi01]

i think you may have overdone the squeelies abit... but i gues its just your metal influence, wich is still good cos its good to give it your own style while playing

[publicservant2009]

EXCELLENT  playing!

[pastriani33]

super top j'aimerai jouer comme ca

[rocker801]

wonderful playing !

[Projectile007]

When I see people excel, I get a renewed sense that we are amazing creations! Thanks for the MUSIC!!! You should always be proud!

[sunohara13]

magnifique! une prestation de tres grande qualité , un son exellent vraiment sans défaut un grand bravo

[NeoGeofanatic]

@sunohara13 merci c'est gentil !! ^^ pourtant je n'ai fais que "bavarder" dans cette chanson ^^

[gpiacente]

@NeoGeofanatic Watching you is like looking a musical art.

Amazing talent & Im sure hard work. Truly, you feel what you play and

that inspired something more in ME ! Very Good my friend.....chow:o)>

[Rattlelegs]

Perfect, it was smooth, and with feeling. werry nice. you have some great skills. It made me happy watching. Thanks for that.

[NeoGeofanatic]

@Rattlelegs thank you for watching !! ^^

[xbob23]

dang it...i cant finish any song of joe satriani XD

[winlp]

hey man, great cover

what guitar is that?

[xbob23]

@winlp ESP Eclipse?you can see at 0:04 :D

[fenderibo]

Is this using the POD X3 Neo? top work man!

[TheTokyoted]

hey do you take requests?

[riseagainstmeatloaf]

I like this. The harmonics you pull off there are pretty full sounding. And also it looks like you're doing it with ease. I have a request though. Could you do a few songs from Iron Maiden's Powerslave album? I would really like to see things like Two Minutes to Midnight, Aces High, and Powerslave. I think your playing would really make everyone bow down if they see that.

[madguitarist8042]

if you got rid of the finger nail polish, this cover would be 1000 times better, but still epic

[NeoGeofanatic]

@madguitarist8042 thanks, but I'll NEVER get rid of my polish ^^

[NeoGeofanatic]

@madguitarist8042 and I don't know why it would be better without polish LOL XD
