Buckethead - Soothsayer

[mumpsternugget]

336 dislikes? im going to grab my guitar and bash them upside the head foolycooly style!! who would have the heart to get near that dislike button.

[DjFiZzZle]

Im getting tears everytime i hear this!

Love you Buckethead!<3

[smiles187]

omg this is the best guitar sound ive ever heard!

[Soothsayer42]

@smiles187 Same here :D are you new to buckethead?

[smiles187]

@Soothsayer42 Yea I've never heard of this guy before. Now I can't stop listening.

[LeeWatsonful]

I Sure as hell hope the guitars he plays are over 18.

[MrTomosko]

Who the man at the end ???

[jmssmhn]

God doesnt exist, Buckethead does !!

Had god existed, he would have lived in bucketheadland and followed buckethead religion !!

[rifewithfear]

this is like one of the longest songs i listen to on youtube but i still replay it more than any of the others. quality over quantity? fuck that say's buckethead! ima do both!

[jmssmhn]

@rifewithfear padmanasa is longer than this, but u will still replay it

:)

buckethead the great

[Lexskate123]

You know it's great music when the top two comments are actually intelligent... But really it's just great music.

[1124Rogue]

He was a shopkeeper in skyrim then someone placed a bucket on his head.

[coolandlethal]

Though I love his music, I feel his mask adds on to his awesomeness.....

[JackHelmOfficial]

@coolandlethal I agree!! I would really like to know who he is but i feel that would ruin it :P

[purplehaze216]

for years i've been listening to this song... never get tired of it.

[maiduteinmata]

7:49 gives me goosebumps everytime, i kind of play that again and again for like 5 minutes...then i listen to the rest of the song :D

[skyvoodka78]

OMFGGG why this man isn't my dad !!!!!!!!!!! just awesome :x

[RemorfChuket]

Anybody else tired of people saying "Buckethead has no feeling in his music"?

[axxellrezz]

He's not really underrated at all. I think most people come to that conclusion because the only song most people have heard is Jordan and then refuse to explore his music further. As an underground musician, he has quite the following.

[chris031187]

@mcpensky69 hes not under rated hes considered one of the best composers ever

[joeydollazbaumgart]

hes fucking batman on guitar

[YousickToo]

@joeydollazbaumgart The fact that he's capable of holding Batman down & physically fucking him is impressive enough. That he's doing it on top of a guitar & playing this music in the process is mind-blowing.

[391KTM]

man this song is so deep , the first time I heard this , not even gonna lie I shed some tears. it was that beautiful , and imma dude. plus its dedicated to his deceased aunt suzie . man I know he probably sheds some tears behind the mask while playing it

[WHlTEDEVlL]

god: im not real

buckethead: who said that

[sabbathbloodoath98]

Not my fucking fault, the replay button shouldn't have been walking around dressed like a fucking skank...

[GeneralAlexi]

So I was listening to this song, but I was so mesmerized I lost my pencil, its green with a really short red eraser. Can anyone help me find it around here?

[keniapowa]

this song is like a spell

[thatguyhealey]

@keniapowa buckethead fus-ro-dah

[keniapowa]

@thatguyhealey LOL Exactly!!

[Piten4]

this once played on the radio, then i woke up and heard lady gaga romammama

[ItsMrBuckethead]

Ya Santa Cruz 1/27/12 Enough Said!!

Bucket.

[EpictheEpicest]

if he and steve vai are not the two most versatile and skillful guitarists/composers who ever lived then I don't know who is. I can't stand those people who preach about peons like kirk hammett and ingwe speedsteen, yes they are good, but they are very limited in what they can play as are most "top" guitarists. Steve Vai writes 5 songs of all different nature with complex riffs while warming up for a show, and kirk hammett's latest garbage consists of a 70 year old man speaking over generic shit

[EpictheEpicest]

I have the urge to buy all buckethead's CDs, all five thousand of them

[ACESxMuffinx1]

0:00 to 9:12 was my reunion with my inner soul (fucking loved it)

[AcidSh33tz]

God: there you go i finally perfected the universe and i can now create human life, Buckethead im going to need you to create music in my universe again.

Buckethead: are you sure the mortals will even bother to listen.

God: yes this time i used Love as the primal ingredient.

Buckethead: sounds crazy enough to just might work..ill give it my best.

God: when do you ever not?

Buckethead: Touchè

[badabumbadabing1]

@AcidSh33tz

how empty is your life

[AcidSh33tz]

@badabumbadabing1 im empty and clean, energy just flows though me, your prob full of shit creating obsticles and tripping over your shoelaces with all the shit you have in your life..im empty and i am just a vessle for pure energy. thanks to buckethead.

[rifewithfear]

@badabumbadabing1 you say that as though he dropped out of high school and spent everyday up until this day working on that comment, i'd say it probably took him about 2 minutes in total to think of, write out and post that comment to show his respect to buckethead where as you've spent about 10 percent of that time to type a comment attacking someone in a personal matter whom of which you have never met. this comment took me 2 minutes to do but its pretty long so i guess i don't have a life...

[eddietheguy12]

I think i just had a 9:12 long eargasm!

[xImpactvideosx]

FUCK MY PC IS FREEZING

[Soothsayer42]

Viva La da Buckets~

[AntCollins13]

Do you want fries with that?

Just give me the bucket.

[m3l3ca]

speed you get from years of practice .... but not emotion.

[8down10]

@m3l3ca normally i agree, i hate it when people play fast, but with buckethead i dont what it is but he has speed and emotion

[nerdyharry]

@m3l3ca he has emotions dude, they're just naive.

[m3l3ca]

@nerdyharry I do not express myself right, I meant that not just anyone can make music as beautiful as his

(bad english)

[johnnysneaker1]

You are listening to the sickest genius in music of the last 500 years. In the future only Joe Satriani and Buckethead will be relevant. In the New Age of Enlightenment all superficial crap will be seen as irreverent and immature. If you cannot see that he is the best we have you are a punk.

[jageedsheedmaheed]

@johnnysneaker1 I am a punk but I also like blues, very very old country (like 20's 30's), Indie, Alternative, Ska, rap, hip-hop, and lots of other stuff :)

[AcidSh33tz]

@johnnysneaker1 amen brother

[joplinlump]

this guy can shreed. one of the greatest. is on rolling stones top 100 3 or 4 times.

[ChrisVGuitarist]

Buckethead makes me not want to eat chicken, but to befriend them and thank them for raising such a damn good guitarist! lmao

[charlieyenriquito32]

Bukethead rocks

[seanrees97]

Is it just me that wants to break down and cry when I hear 6:05?

[391KTM]

@seanrees97 not the only one .

[wasabeiwant]

pleaso dont stop

[snakev10v5]

@wasabeiwant thats what she said....

[rockfly1212]

7:48 when the best solo is starting

[suss452]

So good.

[eagerbeavers1130]

true talent!

[newgroundscrazy]

He should one day put on a black suit and tie, white mask, be the Slenderhead. One day...

[jaredultimatum]

Through my random youtube video surfing I can across Animals as Leaders. I just turned it off and came straight to here. I love Buckethead.

[hansbananendans]

@kelso9196 good question

[eternalluv4mj]

THIS SONG IS INCREDIBLE!

[RDjthedemon]

331 bastards in this world

[xjohnx19x]

marolyn manson does suck and buckethead is god next to paul gilbert

[BrokenSythe06]

I love this D;

[TheJombur]

I have a bucket. I have a head. With enough electricity I can create a Buckethead!!! muhahahahhaha

[TheJombur]

I bet he wears that mask ... because of the funny guitar face syndrome... *as he purses his fat lip behind a pvc pipe dream*

[LifeImitated]

I love how Buckethead's got such a variety in his songs. They anywhere from really fast paced requires-the-technical-skill-o­f-a-virtuoso songs, to simple, yet deep and emotional songs, to the plain old weird songs. I love this guy.

[snakev10v5]

@LifeImitated ah same here ^_^ he is awesome.

[MegaHeritic]

Poptarts and Buckethead mmmmm....

[saintprawn]

@GobrightGuitarPaint why were you at an awards ceremony when your wife was heavily pregnant? also, if she was in labour do you think she would be able to page you a message?

[GobrightGuitarPaint]

I was in San Francisco at the Bammy awards in "99. I was backstage about ten feet from Buckethead when I got a "Page" from my wife saying she was in labor.I rushed home.12 years later,my son loves to play guitar and is a big Buckethead fan...true story--so don't add anything to it !

[Davstrapp]

this shit's fawkn' EPIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII­IIIIC!!!!!

[deadpool1417]

I once called buckethead a god. nobody believed me. I was obviously the only person there with a brain.

[ACEskater911]

soothsayer for life

[DarthDrizzt]

I comment this video every time i listen to it... This man Trancends "godhood".

[vampireboy7741]

Just learnt to play the whole intro in twenty minutes! :D God that was hard!!! :O and i mean to play it clean!!! :D with no mistakes :D

[JanuaryChopin]

Set "Soothsayer" as alarm tone. The only alarm tone can hear through from the beginning til the end.

Epic Buckethead is epic!

[charlieyenriquito32]

4:27-4:49 wtf

[ShakeDesu]

My girlfriend said buckethead... is awesome. Now we're married.

[megadethzeppelin]

i once played this note for note...then i woke up :'(

[Romolo5100]

Perfect !!!



[F1FT3EN]

The 330 Who Disliked This Video Can't Play Guitar!

[randomorbital]

@F1FT3EN I can't play guitar but like buckethead.... You make no sense.

[inuygoku]

4:27-4:49 my heart began beating again. I AM ALIVE ONCE AGAIN!

[inuygoku]

I asked santa for bucketheads hands because I wanted to be able to play like him......... instead I got a bunch of his music. and a note

"to who it may concern,

I wanted to grant your wish, but you can't not take gods hands away

love,

Santa"

I was happy that I at least got his music. :)

[Georgeous129]

@inuygoku i got a bucket for xmas, guess it was god's way of saying 'see what you can do with a brain like Buckethead's!'

[Fisherdafozil]

@inuygoku ......can't not, you say.......double negative, means he can have the hands of a god.... tut tut tut

[msowolfy]

@Fisherdafozil How very accurate, my friend

[aggmesh]

@inuygoku you, sir, can take the cake home.

[inuygoku]

@aggmesh I WANT THAT CAKE!

[mariopup]

@inuygoku SOPA will probs just imprison you and take it from you anyway

[IamAWSOMEftw]

@inuygoku He inspired me to pick up guitar!!! Long live Bucket head!!!! Ima wear a bucket just like him someday if i got popular or jamming on a stage wif my band!!!!

[simi7456]

this song is so beathiful and emotional

[ZaifoTube]

This truly sincere great artist is soooo underrated :S He's so unique, he should be much more popular, it's a fact not just my opinion.

[smoothandsilky21]

One of my favorite Buckethead tracks.Soothsayer Nothingham Lace and Padmasana.

[khrysztal24]

i like it :D it's amazing...

[BlazinWolvesOG]

Anybody else get chills when 2:07-3:11 and 6:05-6:28 comes up?

I fucking love it.

[MrTinyBill]

@BlazinWolvesOG err, no. must only be you.

( 7:48 - 7:55 )

[TheMrChaddles]

@MrTinyBill damn right dude, that shit's intense.

[vincedeleon66]

Manson should do some lyrics over this song. Fits his vocals so much. Both extremely depressing and desperate. Beautiful song although nothing is said.

[turnbacktime]

@vincedeleon66 hellllll no...

[BallonkaSwe]

@vincedeleon66 for the love of god no. This is not a depressing song, its a beutiful song. Marilyn Mansson sucks

[RetroSparkles]

@vincedeleon66 No way. I am so glad theres no vocals in this song, because that would just ruin the meaning...

[79BBYDOLL]

ONE BADASS DUDE!!!

[mellie9227]

hands down the best song ever

[mrSpittfire1]

I really enjoy buckethead's music...it's so real and charming...but don't you think some themes in "soothsayer" are kind of inspired by "stairway to heaven"s solo? Nevermind...Buckethead is still amazing !!

[BallonkaSwe]

@mrSpittfire1 eeh no. Stairway to heaven is a overrated pentatonic run. Anybody can come up with the Stairway solo.

[ACEskater911]

4444255 weird num of views

[TheKarikatur]

Favorited 10 seconds after it started.... Perfection.

[MyDraco19]

i want to kiss his hands!

[urigilmour]

All of Buckethead's songs are great stories too, or I least I imagine them, he's a genius, he's a real musician, artist.

[HoLLyWoOdUnDeAdFaN96]

Saw The Dislike Bar ?... Me Neither...

[DRJokeR1258]

this guy is raping by headphones :D ( in a positive way )

[lexa8412]

My girlfriend said she doesnt like this and I killed her! AND I DONT EVEN HAVE A GIRLFRIEND!

[sovietguitarman]

This song has a Kick Ass Level of over 9000

[catspajamas01]

I forgot that I was wearing shoes.

[hansbananendans]

@catspajamas01 WTF

[ZaifoTube]

[Deathshuck]

[trusty345]

@deruyscher9194 Mine exploded at 7:54 O_O

[deruyscher9194]

O.O....my fuckin head exploded at 6:05.

[GreenEyes046]

Amazing & Inspiring.

I haven't heard an instrumental better than this.

[pacingBlue]

Outstanding!

[TheIcpfolife]

Amazing song

[IntrepidDare]

Before you play the song, visit RainyMood . com and let the rain and thunder play in the background. Press play.

[MATTfromSK]

EARGASM

[TheIcpfolife]

[sam11083]

Wow! Electrifying!! I listen to all music and you can feel this throughout my being!

[tincho377]

Guitar Hero Anubis |m|

[ARRR8]

[1regend]

Buckethead is God!

[Adnanjehan1]

Incredible

[MrFluffay]

my girlfriend said buckethead sucks

she is single now

just kidding :P

she is dead now

[catspajamas01]

@MrFluffay

The only funny thing about your comment is that you stole it from someone else when it wasn't even funny to begin with.

[TheRattlehead13]

@MrFluffay My girlfriend said Buckethead sucks, now you can find her head on eBay...

[inuygoku]

hmmmm, I think I found my favorite part of this song. 0:00-9:12. yeah that seems right. That part is definitely my favorite part.

[TrashDeviant]

@inuygoku

Thanks for the free replay button!

*clicky clicky*

[iTzQuimby]

my girlfriend said bucket head sucks, shes single now... hahahah jk shes dead...

[antimatter07]

guitar hero didnt got me here.. buckethead got me to play guitar hero..

[b2theec]

this song is like the best story i've ever heard...amazing

[thekiller223223]

Is it weird if i got a boner from this....

[buzz412]

@thekiller223223

no not really ^^

[TrashDeviant]

@thekiller223223

Only if its weird that I once got a boner playing a Steve Vai signature series Ibanez.

[xeniel017]

My girlfriend said Buckethead sucks...

She's single now!

Im joking.

She's dead now.

[bullettomy7thheart]

This song would always help me fall asleep during rough times, then my ipod broke and i cant afford a new one but this song is always nice to listen to

[TheMaidenman123]

at the end: buckethead rocks

i couldnt agree more....

[ThanatosErosProd]

Aunt Suzie!

[xtide2]

at first i was like nahhh until in the middle of the song i was like OMG i just shitt myself

[iamthescott1]

@xtide2 WHY DOST THOU SHIT THYSELF?!?!

[Zeelaav]

Maybe not the best guitarist in the world but probably the best musician that ever existed !

Buckethead, when i discovered your music, my life has changed, thank you.

Buckethead for life... ♥

[ACEskater911]

@Zeelaav name a guitarist that can do something buckethead cant. Buckethead can do anything on guitar, he runs that shit. you must not play an instrument or something.

[Zeelaav]

@ACEskater911 Buckethead is by far my favorite guitarist, but I recognize that it is not the best that's all. You do not seem to have understood my comment, and I played guitar since 8 years, and synthesizer since 4 years. And relax dude I has made evoke my admiration for him not the contrary.

(google translate).

[riddlemethis6969]

326 people still probably live with their parents and wet the bed....

[Silvergoldstarfish]

Nice

[JackHelmOfficial]

Buckethead is such a huge inspiration to guitarists all over the world. This is a masterpiece.

[BubTheOriginal]

He used to be a normal person like you and me, until he got a bucket to the head..

[mizzaros]

@BubTheOriginal I see what you did there :D

[XohmadonX]

@BubTheOriginal aw well atleast this one is better than all the arrow to the knee stuff xD

[gojirametallica]

@BubTheOriginal i like how your name claims you are original when you ripped off that joke

[Staplesz]

"this sounds like shit" *imagines what my life would be like and what I would listen to if I thought that*
