Michael Angelo Batio - Diary of an Empty Life

[menfalling]

underrated guitarist: a shame!



[SuperSpaceMaster]

This song makes me think of Borknagar for some reason.

I LOVE Michael so much for his talent to provoce EVERY possible emotion through his Music. There havent even to be sad textes or story behind them. Just Music, a language that everyone understands....Mike is a God in his own way.

[MustangMan427]

actually, youre wrong. the most hardcore Jimi fans know that hes by far not the best guitarist who ever lived. in fact, its the people who dont know much about guitar at all that say that. they just go by what theyve been told.

[Roguestandards]

@MustangMan427 well said, i think personally he was more about showmenship then anything else dont get me wrong he was good and pioneerd a lot of the sounds and techniques used today back then he was different thats what made him good but is no where near the best guitarist who ever lived.

[OIowe]

really beauty !

[crashfleo]

Amazing....pure feeling!!!

[RisingMoonDragon]

Only Batio could create such an amazing, touching song such as this one, and add some shredding on top of it all, and have it sound perfect with the song!

[pelopidakas]

this song is very beautifull !! MAB is great!

[saumier1]

Batio's best! He doesn't kill it

[chacojepas]

MAB is a genious, and here is the proof.

He can either play Shredding, or stuff like this with a lot of feeling on it.

I wish he wrote more songs like this in wheren he does not ruins the feeling of the song

anyway

MAB Fucking Rocks -|..|

[dragonstorming]

anyone has a tab for this song?

[Seirion]

@dragonstorming I don't think they are tabs for many of his song... Only the popular song have tabs :(

[lovetomockandpraise]

micheal angelo batio can practically do anything on guitar it is sad that some bad mouth him cause they play guitar hero none stop

[ZomgMetalRules1989]

@lovetomockandpraise or they are blind jimi hendrix fans

[Fluffypopcicle]

@ZomgMetalRules1989

most hardcore jimi hendrix fans are the most closed-minded, ignorant type of people there are when it comes to music and guitar playing. they aren't even open to someone being better at guitar than jimi hendrix. of course, any smart musician san see the horrible flaws in jimi's guitar playing and can see and hear that jimi's guitar solos can be so incredibly off key and obnoxious.

[PureDiamondFilms]

@lovetomockandpraise But who are those? :) I dont see or hear any people complaining about him. Haters will stay haters. But real Guitarists go on their knees in front of Michael. Don't worry. He is a God ;)

[fjfelix20]

wow! i have never heard this before, this is absolutely amazing!!

[dasmio]

omfg¡¡¡ MAB SONG with not sherdded

thats awesome ... beatifull

[saumier1]

Most of batio compositions are nice for the first half then he just goes nuts and ruins the song. I'm glad that I can listen to this song all the way through. I wish he would make more songs like this

[Muchodelcrazy]

I like MAB, but I agree with that. Even the songs I like alot, there there are runs that I wish just weren't there.

[charvinaldo]

yea i agree. there are parts of pray on, prey, for example that just kill it. the b flat major/lydian lick, and the a minor lick that it leads right into are awesome but the insane shredding that sounds a bit out of scale, perhaps using some whole tone stuff, i think it just isnt musical, and it could have easily been replaced with say, one of those 6 string hameron pull of to the open tone licks...it gets a cool shredder tone, but explores the theme more musically i think...anyway i agree

[GoldenSowrd82]

check out his song "peace" :)

[Koujinkamu]

Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr­rrrrrr!

I couldn't find this vid because I confused 'diary' with 'dairy'... my excuse is that I'm not a native English speaking person.

[pootrap]

Nice chord arrangements.....good to hear something that hasn't been overpowered by his shredding!!!

[burnedandbroken13]

Good stuff!!!
