[gewerh44]

@uriel866

havent had the will and time to write it down though its one of my fave songs...

[uriel866]

@gewerh44 mine too its just such a beautiful song the studio version is so awesome with all the clarities in there just perfect !

[uriel866]

wow i was just about to ask about the guitar tuning haha and then i saw you answered that! oh and could you tell me how do you figure out the song tuning?

[gewerh44]

@uriel866

well, I tried to learn this song when I had just a few months playing guitar. I watched videos and I learnt the tuning that way. I couldnt learnt the playing at that time though, I wasnt ready :P

[Misifosa]

how is the guitar tunned??



[gewerh44]

@Misifosa

DGCGCD

thanks for watching!

[prooflootkoo]

let me tell you something, this would have been the absolute BEST cover of my favorite song if you did the heavy part. You have top notch excellent vocals and I'm completely sure you could have pulled it off. But besides that, FANTASTIC job sir, very very beautiful.

[gewerh44]

@prooflootkoo

thanks I understand what you say.

We just meant to do a guitar/vocals cover, no drums, no bass.

Next time, it will be a full cover :D

[prooflootkoo]

@gewerh44 Awesome, can't wait. Subscribed to your channel (:

[josechampthinks]

This video deserves more views....

[gewerh44]

@josechampthinks

[Gege42]

This is the best song in the whole world, and you played it perfectly.

[gewerh44]

@Gege42

thanks mate!

[Gege42]

@gewerh44 I miss the hard rock part though :(

[gewerh44]

@Gege42

this was an intimate, soft cover, my version of the guitars and JC's version of the vocals.

But I promise I will make a full accurate cover of the studio version :D Its one of my favourite songs ever!

[gewerh44]

@RAMONSURF1569

thanks man, sorry I didnt keep the settings for this song :(

[uriel866]

great cover :) this song kinda reminds of a simpler time right :)

[gewerh44]

@uriel866

I know... its a powerful tune. It makes me feel melancholic

[Scream4vengeance]

Love this cover, man... Hope we get to do another LZ one some day...

Merry Christmas to you and your family, Elias.

JC

[gewerh44]

@Scream4vengeance

thanks JC! Believe me, I love it too. I told you before, this is one of my favourite ones :)

Merry Christmas my friend, have some nice time with your family and loved ones.

[darkredX13]

[gewerh44]

@darkredX13

[tepicoloyoxtli]

very good i just have no words i folow your work and start to play guitar cause you make it seems easy and it is if you love this 6 strings ... still there. thanks.

[gewerh44]

@tepicoloyoxtli

thanks my friend, good luck!

[montroxz3]

FABULOUS ! is a gross understatement . I learned this song from tab in the early 90's .

Your version is far superior . I went to your link . Is it possible to purchase tab of your

version ?

[gewerh44]

@montroxz3

thanks mate, Im glad you liked it.

My way to play it here is pretty much like the studio version, 2 guitars playing at the same places, except one is always strumming chords, and the other plays individual notes most times.

And I added just a couple of details from the TSRTS live version.

Im afraid I havent written a tab for this song, sorry.

But I know I will write it one of these days.

[diogobue]

awww on this video the vocals are excelent , and the guitar as always gewerh44 beatifull, and the videos on the back of the video with butterflyes aww thats so awesome , good cover to relax and smoking a nice cigarette in a rain day

[gewerh44]

@diogobue

totally agree my friend. I love this song, perfect for relaxing time

[3whisperedwords]

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz....but in a good way =) Lovely.

[gewerh44]

@3whisperedwords

I know, this song relaxes me in a way that no other song can.

:X:X:X

[uriel866]

is this the same strings you always use? cuz they look so comfortable

[gewerh44]

@uriel866

yes they are the same kind, Ive been using that brand since 2 years ago, I wont change them for anything :D

[uriel866]

this COVER (not song) relaxes me :P

his vocals and your guitar skills are so amazing ill just repeat the song i wish youtube had an auto rewinder or w/e

[gewerh44]

@uriel866

thanks man, Im glad you liked it :)

[uriel866]

[drwoof23]

Insane cover 

[gewerh44]

@drwoof23

thanks for watching!

[4LedZeppelin20]

F***ing Amazing! one of the best Zeppelin covers I have heard. The guitar was PERFECT, and those vocals made it even better.

[gewerh44]

@4LedZeppelin20

thanks my friend, Im glad you liked it.

I also believe JC did an amazing job on the vocals.

[gewerh44]

@qbb545yfa2

[gewerh44]

@3whisperedwords

hell yeah, I do know youre not into spiders xD

[Beriol9]

Just awesome. Great job.

[gewerh44]

@Beriol9

thanks!

[ScoiaMMX]

Beatifull.. this has allways been one of my favorite LZ songs ever, along with Since i've been loving you. As usual u make it look so easy. I can play it too with that weird tunning but I leave out some details. need to play them seperatly and assemble the tracks after.

Congrats to the vocalist. great performace guys.

[gewerh44]

@ScoiaMMX

thanks my friend, we coincide on that too. Since Ive been loving you and the rain song are my favourite songs ever. They will never cease to amaze me

[idrewu2me]

I can now say in no uncertain terms, you are spot on. Excellent overdubbing of the tracks; timing impeccable. To the singer, rock onward! Your voice carries a deep rasp yet can smooth out to a clean finish...Sweet! I plan to watch all your stuff to help my playing. I wish I had six hours daily for devoted practice too! May many great things lie in store for you. Thank you, idrewu2me

[gewerh44]

@idrewu2me

thanks mate!

[minasminority]

where was this filmed?

[gewerh44]

@minasminority

I recorded in my room ;)

JC lives in Japan, I think he just went out of town and got these beautiful places. But dont know exactly where he filmed this.

[robban97swe]

There's some guitarists here on youtube with almost the same skills as yours. But they have been playing since they were very small childs... But it's amazing how skilled you can get in a such a short time with the school and all... It's a huge difference betwen you and all the other guys!

Btw good singer to;D

thumbs up as always;)

[gewerh44]

@robban97swe

thanks man, all I can say is that I love playing guitar, maybe thats why.

Also some people practice more than others. One hour a day, 1 or 2 times a week, is not the same than playing 6 hours a day, everyday.

[Trojan123451]

perfect =D

[gewerh44]

@Trojan123451

thanks for watching!

[nfleig]

[gewerh44]

Saludos desde Veracruz!

[3whisperedwords]

five starsssssssss

[gewerh44]

[timtipton5071256]

Oh....forgot to mention...5 star guitar playin' all the way...forgettabouttit.the best.

[gewerh44]

thanks Tim!

[aquadan005]

Wow, another fine job !! You're nailing them gewerh44 !!

[gewerh44]

@aquadan005

thanks my friend!

[timtipton5071256]

@gewerh44 this was one that I learned about 6 years ago that gives me the most joy in playing...the vocalist you found is 5 star.....gewer, damn I can't believe how good you've become in so short a time..one of the best....rock on...

[gewerh44]

youre very kind my friend :)

JC is one of the best singers in youtube and a great human being.

I know what you mean, this song is in my top 3 favourite songs ever. Its magical, cant describe what I feel when I play it.

[steve19901988]

I can say that you are right but the zep song that touches me is ten years gone...trully a masterpiece can't wait to hear it from you . 5 stars on this by the way

[julie1300]

@steve19901988 that would be cool to hear :) :) I second the request..

[gewerh44]

@julie1300

I think thatd be cool :)

[julie1300]

so ya think ...?

[gewerh44]

@julie1300

you dont believe me? :D

[Xxtayce]

This is excellent!!

[gewerh44]

thanks for watching!

[StratGT]

Amazing version of a great song. The singer looks like a bad ass biker but he has a great voice.

[gewerh44]

thanks mate!

[SamTalmadge]

I'll be honest. When the song started, and Scream4Vengence came in, it scared the crap out of me because I am used the the real song being just a quiet acoustic intro. Regardless, this was beautifully done. Nice job

[gewerh44]

its cool man, thanks for being honest.

Being honest I think JC did the best job covering this song. Im sure I wont see a better singer but Plant himself.

[SamTalmadge]

But really, I have no idea how JC came up with the little vocal fills like that. Oh by the way. You are starting to have a healthy number of subscribers and views. You should start a partnership with YouTube.

[gewerh44]

I think he got inspired with TSRTS version. Robert Plant finishes the song remains the same with a log scream and the rain song starts.

[SamTalmadge]

Oh so that's why the cover of Celebration was a lot rockier. I heard your version first, got Led Zeppelin best of 1 and was dissapointed.

[gewerh44]

well yeah, the studio version of Celebration Day is cool, with a lot of guitar work, but it doesnt compare with the live versions, especially TSRTS version. Jimmy Page had the talent to improve songs that were already great, so he was able to play those new versions in live performances.

[C6Dude402]

Amazing work guys .... !!!

This is the best cover of this song on Youtube !!

[gewerh44]

thanks my friend, Im glad you liked it :)

[dodger555]

Well done, that song is one of my favourites too. Wish I could play it... Is there anywhere on YouTube I can get the tut? Especially the retune.

Post some more mate, you're both really good! Gonna watch you again. :)

I'm gonna practice this until I nail it.

[gewerh44]

thanks my friend,

Im pretty sure there are several tutorials around youtube. Have fun!

[rbtgreene]

Brilliant...

[gewerh44]

thanks for watching!

[bayley5150]

SPEECHLESS!!!!!!!!! jaw dropping AWESOME!!!!!!!!

[gewerh44]

thanks mate!

[peterlostig]

It's a different tuning right? Nice cover between

[gewerh44]

[DADGADDY]

It's like Zeppelin reincarnated, very nice. BTW, thanks for the close-ups of the guitar, there were a couple parts I was having difficulty figuring out but now I'm good, it was like a lesson. Keep em' coming.

[gewerh44]

thanks man, thats the point of my close-ups/recording way ;)

Im glad it really helped you out :)

[NateageIV]

[sleggarri]

Wow! You two are great together!!!!

[gewerh44]

thanks for watching!

[lastdaysguitar]

I used to play this - it's funny how differently guitarists approach songs, it's been years but I do recall my chord shapes where different on some of them.

Great arrangement, great tone very open ...as it should be.

Good singer!

Nicely done - looking forward to checking out your other songs!

[gewerh44]

thanks mate, Im glad you liked our little tribute to one of my favourite songs ever.

[09jesse09]

you should do a cover of ironman by black sabbath

you would kill that!

[gewerh44]

thanks man, I might :D

[Tomd1013]

ive seen like all your videos and its hard to believe u play these things by ear. and i know uve got a talent and u should be in a famous band man!

[gewerh44]

thanks man, I appreciate that :)

[chaostheory626]

great cover man! its really true to the original.

i've been playing guitar for a year now and i hope that one day i can play this song as well as you do.

[gewerh44]

thanks man!

[oobrocks]

this was an Amazing cover! Congrats!! Are you guys pros? If not, why not? A Fan: Bob.

[gewerh44]

thanks my Bob! glad you liked it

Im not pro, wish I had a band at least ;)

JC has a lot of experience in this, its my pleasure to work with him.

[bbsb300]

Back again Elias. What an amazing production, love it, Cheers Billy ;)

[gewerh44]

thanks Billy ;)

[shamwoww]

wow!

the vocals were superb, and ur great as always. are u playing in standard tuning or that crazy d suspended tuning?

[gewerh44]

thanks my friend, JC is an awesome singer.

I use the same tuning Page used on the album version: DGCGCD, very original tuning if you ask me. It makes every chord sound beautiful!

[hardycenarulez]

i think i already commented but this cover is absolutly amazing, the guitar, the vocals. Scream4veangen's voice is so powerfull! i love it, i listen to it every time. Both of you earned my respect as a musician, keep rockin' \m/ peace \/.

[gewerh44]

thanks my friend, its means a lot. This is one of the videos that brought me more satisfaction. JC is so talented. Im glad to know you like it that much :)

[Chanbang18]

Wow! I have never been so inspired to learn a song in my life! That is saying something this is only youtube couldn't even imagine seeing you guys live that would be amazing!

[gewerh44]

thanks my friend, that means a lot

its not surprising though, this is an amazing song and a piece of art. A song that every guitarist should know. Have fun!

[andr3wbr1an]

this song makes me wanna cry..

[gewerh44]
