David Bowie - Ziggy Stardust cover

[DinoLucca1]

Great job, your playing is very good, and adds to the original sound in a very positive way.

I have been a Bowie fan since 1972 and I could gladly listen to your cover, many times.

You remained true to the original sound, and added something of your own, well done, and thanks !!

[STimo95]

in the intro riff you miss a chord, the 2-3-2-3-2 should be with a D chord.

[ibanezplayer147]

@STimo95 I know i did this on purpose because the distortion made it sound too unclear

[EvanAsimov]

Is it an Ibanez FR1620-BK ?

What"s your amp ?

[Volendammtje]

Screw you, this is not Ziggy Stardus from guitar hero.

It's Ziggy Stardust from David Bowie.

Maybe you don't understand what a cover is. If you went to a show/bar/festival, and there was a "cover band" playing, would you expect them to just jam along to the record in the background? No. That's called practicing.

A cover is when you play a song ON YOUR OWN--without a record to guide you.

This is just guitar karaoke. You get it, now?

[garco01088]

Every single youtube video on here that is someone playing a song that's not original is titled "Cover" meaning he's covering their song. Why the fuck do you got to bitch? GG.

[tcinpa37]

Again... very slowly....

A.... COVER.... IS.... WHEN.... YOU DO.... A RENDITION..... OF A PRE-EXISTING SONG.... ON YOUR OWN.... NOT TO BE.... CONFUSED WITH.... PLAYING THE RHYTHM... IN TIME... WITH THE ORIGINAL.... IN A BEDROOM.... TO GUITAR HERO.

I'm not bitching. You just don't seem to fucking comprehend simple terms.

Gn'R covered Knockin' on Heaven's Door. They didn't just stand on stage and play over the record in the background.

¿¿¿¿¿comprende?????

God some on you are fucking thick.

[ibanezplayer147]

So you want me to make a video without a band and just play guitar? That would be pretty boring. And since you like using examples, this "guitar karaoke" is like when a band doesnt have a drummer so they replace him with a machine; i replaced the rest of the band with a stereo.

[tcinpa37]

This is, like, the 9th "cover" that was nothing more than some jackass in his messy bedroom "following along" with the song.

A cover implies you make it your own, as in play and sing and do your personal version of the song.

This is just a video of your practicing...

Well, whoodee-freakin' doo!!!

[humbug102tf]

stfu you douchebag why not its a nice cover

[bridgfordbill]

please dont watch my cover of ziggy stardust,,,im absolutly not desperate for views

[CONCRETE13]

It actually was not too bad. Practice makes perfect.

[MrMisterblitz]

[schawinis]

[JeremyJok3r]

[CONCRETE13]

Ha! No shit!!

Funny story though, I have that video, but its of YOU, and your fucking your neighbor's dog! How weird is that right? Do you want me to post it? You fucking homo.

[hunglikeaheretic]

You should be set on fire...

[JeremyJok3r]

you are truly awful and crappy but u do have nice poster on your wall

awful job , nice poster

ps: you look like your posing , what a tard you are

[ethanklemons]

Dude u have no idea wat ur talking about that was good. Its pretty obvious that uve never played guitar or probably even touched one.

GOOD Performance Ibanezplayer147

im working on that song right now and im doing pretty good on it so far(probably not as good as that)

[ethanklemons]

btw... David Bowies bi (no joke look it up)

I only like this song from him

Go CLAPTON!!!

CLAPTON=GOD

[Eyeoftheoldman]

Great job!!

Although the intro sounds a little strange.

But maybe you like it...

So keep rocking!!

[criket527]

pretty good, sound like your playing good, just don't have good recording stuff, i feel you, it's hard to find good stuff for recording without filing for bankruptcy

[fairwell2kings]

sounds but a little heavy on the distortion

[intolerance100]

Awesome, 5 stars. Did you use a tab from the internet? If yes - could you please post a link.

[ibanezplayer147]

it was from ultimate-guitar and probably the one with most ratings lol

[ComaAlpha]

that was NASTY! Mad props my man.

[blackpoolrok]

Really good - I wish I'd learned the guitar when I was younger :(

[29pennzoilchevy]

on of the best covers on youtube of this song.

[ibanezplayer147]

thanks alot

[ibanezplayer147]

i like distortion okay

[UNCtarheelvids]

after the G in the intro, play a D chord once and then do the little 3rd fret , 2nd fret thing. i hope that made sense, lol

[ibanezplayer147]

yeah i know what your talking about, it just didnt sound that great with the distortion

[UNCtarheelvids]

oh, ok. nevermind then

[bowieness]

ehh

could have cone much better

a little hesitant on the beginning

yeah

[MockStoneLLC]

pretty good, but its not just from guitar hero... yea a lot less distortion

[dhtechno]

you should play the intro with the d chord not just those 3 notes

[mynameisnotalfredo]

try a little less distortion... but other than that pretty good... also it says from guitar hero, does that mean the guitar hero version or have you never heard the original?

[fooby94]

the distortion is a little to much... it distracts from the cleaner notes needed for the intro... although it does sound very good during the Am part

[monstermaskus]

you're awesome :D

[CeeLarm]

well! and hot...xD : D kisses

[tegala]

Good effort bud, but please lay off the distortion a fair bit... not every song needs huge amounts of gain to make an impact

[fannyfartknocker]

also um...try and play in time with it

it lokks like your fake playin with it and your not singing *sniff*

[fannyfartknocker]

yay!

[d00deth]

Tabs motherfucker, tabs, five stars for phat distortion and casual play style.

[ayazyam]

Good. I got the tab from a Guitar World issue and it was great.

[RandyRR4]

nice job 4 stars and try it on an acoustic next time

[camerontorry]

exellent keep going dude

[LeadGuitaristSam]

Dude this is my favorite song by Bowie if you can submit a tab on ultimate-guitar for me it would be much apreciated

[doyourealize77]

good shit!

[BPD5308]

I see your confidence coming out more in this song.. just relax little brother. You will go far.

[davidbowie57]

[tenebraerick]

[UltimateDirector]

[sparky42]

[Dutchmaestro1]

real good.. but too much distortion.. but REAL good

[lovesbela]

wow ur really awsome!

[rahvin89]

Ok, I see what you mean, thanks!

[rahvin89]

nice job man, could you possibly send me the tabs for the begining? I have been trying to figure it out but it's driving me nuts!

[ibanezplayer147]

i get all my tabs from ultimate-guitar...except in the intro, instead of doing a D chord and adding my hammering with my pinky, i just do the 2nd and 3rd fret of the E string....if that made sense

[raggertooth2002]

bloody good

[bagosk8r1]

ur the only kid that ive seen so far who ACTUALLY uses the harmonics in the 1st verse...niiice ear on that man

[ibanezplayer147]

thanks alot.

[rjxz]

Nice job, one of my favorite songs.

[StalkerSKT]

Quite nice, sure beats the guitar hero playing kids ;)
