There's emotion in his playing, though I normally find the emotion to be cast aside when he decides to just shred out of nowhere. it doesn't always flow the best, I think.
His facial expression at the beggining is priceless. He looks like hes about to either sob or die inside. Normally he says something before these vids but he remains silent. That speaks a lot.
this is the truth: im an 18 year old man and im crying, this song, I just can describe as something beautifull, malmsteen is my most big influence... lml
just stating the obvious, andreasbn but yngwie has more emotion in his pinkie finger than most guitarists have in their whole body. the combination of scales and mixture of rhythms are pretty amazing imo. not to mention the amazingly fast 16th notes.
The maestro, showing people how it's suppose to be done. So easy for 'em. I'll say it now alcohol plagues all the greats, if he stopped drinking.......he would do magical things. Not that it'll ever happen but, he's so talented. Imagine if you went into guitar center and some dude was playing like this? Seriously. All the blues homo's can say whatever they want and talk this and that the dude is all talent.
i must admit, that the vibrato could've been put out some place, just some :) Otherwise he is the most influencial guitarist ever, love this song!! Thumbs up if you agree ;) Long live Malmsteen from Sweden!
well all this about emotion is sh*t :P all this begins by non-skilled ppl that since have no skill or speed talk about emotion... well EVERYONE has emotion but well sometimes we can't all get the same feeling else we would all be the same... skills are skills... emotion is smthing that we can't all feel the same. anyway...
Exactly! We all have emotions, but not the same emotions. And this is exactly why we can't compare musicians. We can compare their technical abilities. We can tell Malmsteen and Dave Murray for example to play a song note-to-note and give them the notes and then we can listen which one makes more mistakes, but that's about it.
@GuitarGod119 And who are you to say that's not to put emotion into one's playing ? A fast run can hold just as much emotion as one note lasting for 2 bars. But the term 'emotion' in music is really just impossible to define. Some musicians just connect better with some audience. It's a personal thing. So stop arguing about it. For me it's not as much the scales or the melodies in YJM's playing that I connect with, it's his touch and bone-tone, which is outstanding.
@andreasbn because they are most likely fan boys of some extremely overrated shitty guitarist and are pulling excuses out of their ass
for example jimi hendrix or eddie van halen seriously van halen makes me wanna put my head through a wall he is complete shit i dont care what any1 says!
