  • lol. When Prince is playing, Tom Petty looks like he doesn't know what's hit him.

  • @TheElhombre1 Yeah, that's pretty funny for some reason.

  • @TheElhombre1

    Prince isn't in this video!

  • @griffinlaura1119

    I take that back...yes he is!!

    

  • this blows my mind

  • It's scary how much Dhani looks like his father!

  • Prince tossed the guitar up to heaven, and George caught it!

  • I agree with bucks below1955mjm below that I am not a huge Prince fan BUT whoooa he SMOLED this solo something fierce!

  • Dhani looks TOO MUCH like his Da!

  • PRINCE JUST UPGRADED TO KING!!!!

  • Not a fan of Prince but gotta say... he SMOKED on this. Wonder if his fender is still orbiting the planet after this solo?

  • @Blinki18284

    Clearly you have no idea who prince is. I met him 9 years ago and I was at this performance. Let me tell u he did no such thing as destroy the song. If anything Tom petty and prince made it three times as better as the original. Ur just mad cause he doesn't play for your favorite boy band or that wanna-be, Justin Bieber. And you don't believe I know prince, u can try and stick ur head up ur ass and see if it fits.

  • It's freaking scary how much he looks like his dad

  • lol prince lookin like a pimp

  • @SuperKeychains Prince IS a pimp.

  • Jesus, this turns me on so bad.

  • This performance blows ANY RRHoF performance out of the water!

  • Prince...makes me weep!! I love him dearly but have never seen him perform!! :(

  • This is excellent! What Concert is this from? Is it available for purchase? in HD?

  • I wish that Dhani would sing a solo for his Dad

  • Prince shows off his genus as usual....his guitar went from weeping to screaming for attention. And you just know he hand-picked the one security guard that would touching him for his "stage dive" as it were. but its just an awesome solo and the song was done so well, kudos to all the musicians. I didn't know Petty could sing like that.

  • Dhani looks so much like his dad! e_e The whole time, it looked like George Harrison in his 20s was playing along with them. O_o

  • Jeff has the most incredible voice.

  • AWESOME PRINCE....HE REALLY TALKS TO THE GUITAR AND THE GUITAR ANSWER HIM ALL HIS QUESTIONS.

  • its not just some musictions its the traviling wilberrys

  • Wait... what happened to Prince guitar? 6:15 MAGIC!... i hope so... otherwise someone got hurt by a guitar impact in the head. :S

  • Prince solo is not my definition of a gently weep. Is a furious and energetic weep instead. Goodness, what a solo!!

  • Awesome!!!

    

  • I thought I was a pretty good guitarist until now. OMG, Prince absolutely stole the show with his amazing guitar solo! I've gotta watch this over & over again just to try to copy some of his licks. Absolutely Awesome!!!

  • ME podrian decir en que concierto o en que ocasion se grabo este video gracias?

  • 6 people are 'queens'

  • Oh My Gosh lookin at Dhani Harrison is WOW I know hes Georges son but Ive never seen someone look so much like their parent in my life. :)

  • Prince steps up to the plate and delivers the ultimate jaw-dropping mind blast that defies what a Top 40 "pop star" should be able to do. The dude literally sets the stage on fire with his blistering solos!

    Let's see Britney Spears or Justin Timberlake pull off a performance like this....

    This is up there with Gary Moore's performance of Red House and Look at Little Sister by Stevie Ray and Jeff Healey as three of the most electrifying guitar solos on youtube. Check out all three!

  • Pretty sure if Prince was playing when this was first recorded George would have approached him and asked him to take the solo honors, rather than Clapton.

  • Prince.. self taught guitarist.excellent on too...

  • PRINCE IS BETTER THAN ALL THE OTHERS PUT TOGETHER FACT.

  • Prince just destroys the song, how wonderful....-.-

  • @Blinki18284 Shsuh. He did no such thing.

  • @guitarlover654 Of course he did! He's an egocentric man! I don't like that...

  • @Blinki18284 He's one of the greatest musicians ever. Show some respect. He made that guitar cry like a little bitch. He has the right to be egocentric.

  • @guitarlover654 His music is great, of course! But this is not his song! HE has to show some respect for George! And in this song, the guitar just doesn't sound really good! As a SOLO-musician he can be whatever he wants, but not on stage with other great musicians and singing georges songs

  • @Blinki18284 Ummm. How did he not show respect? and the guitar sounds amazing, he uses a lot of technique in his playing. I've been playing for two years, and I don't even want to attempt it and ruin it.

  • @guitarlover654 It's one of those quiet songs with a lot of soul in it! Even Clapton played this intensity in his solo (on the Beatles "rock-version")! He plays pure Rock without feelings, amazing in his songs and of course with technically wonderful, but not the right style for this song! It would be wonderful in Helter Skelter or Yer Blues, but not in While my Guitar gently weeps!

  • @Blinki18284 My friend, this is music. Music is art. Art is freedom and does not know of prohibitions.

  • Prince is good, but i have a feeling he won't be invited back again...to much hot doggin. These other guy don't do that

  • Prince played the sh-t out of that guitar!

  • where the fuck did his guitar go?

  • @LouDawg808 god took it

    

  • Too bad the sound was out of sync but this is one bad ass video... Never realized Prince could play like that... And I love Tom Petty doing anything!!!! I thought it was an awesome tribute to George Harrison.

  • @ 3:30 the kid on Petty's right starts grinning because he knows Prince is about to shred the shit out of it, which he does brilliantly, then when the song is over Prince lobs his guitar and dips off the stage. Classic.

  • @satchman1965 The "kid" on Petty's right is Dhani, Georges son.

  • @satchman1965 "the kid" is George Harrisons Son Dhani :)

  • Don't You Ever Smoke Dhani, Please.

  • Dhani looks exactly like George in his early days with The Beatles!

    Excellent version of this all-time classic piece!

  • In my opinion Prince had tried to put all the attention on him

  • @ClanLSDTv Prince was SO exciting & if he hadn't cheered Dhani up perhaps Prince would have been over the top. Did you see Dhani smile and all of a sudden play his guitar with relish? I think Prince was just what the performance needed, Petty got into it too. It was SO EXCITING to watch Prince OWN that guitar & the solo, way above Clapton. I had no idea Prince was a guitar god, the showy stuff just icing on the cake. I believe George would approve, esp since Prince helped his grieving son.

  • wow!. do it up prince

  • Bloody hell. GET some! This is the best off sync video on Youtube!

  • So my guitar is still weeping...

  • @deliasdelight Dude, I'm not saying prince sucks, but when your comparing guitarsts, Clapton will forever have a bigger impact on the guitar community than prince could ever dream of. Clapton has made a far bigger contribution to guitarists around the world. FACT! like it or not.

  • @Nuttymutts I would say no one would doubt Clapton had a bigger impact. But lets get something straight, Prince is a better player. More innovative, can play any style. He's also an amazing song writer, producer, showman and plays multiple instruments. Impact is the only thing Clapton has over Prince, and that is more about timing and age. Sorry but Clapton can barely hold Princes jock strap, and i like clapton and have played guitar for 20 years.

  • Prince is proof that Jimi Hendrix f*cked Liberace!

  • @NoirFan01 And you're proof that your parents are brother and sister,,you fkn moron

  • Which amazing consert is this?

  • god this is fucking beautiful. no other words can encompass this performance. just incredible.

  • anyone else think that Hendrix was present in this performance?

  • Dhani's like, "Woah shit..."

  • Comment removed

  • Is that Jeff Lynne?

  • @Zimnyification

    you bet your ass it is

  • Is prince just playing over everyone else trying to sing?

  • I love Dhani!!!!!! This is a great cover I think Dhani should be singing it though.

  • Sorry but can't hold a candle to CLAPTON!

  • @Nuttymutts Dude, until you have seen Prince in concert you don't know sh!t~!

  • @Nuttymutts Clapton sucks compared to this.

  • Tom pettys just like that sum messed up shit

  • Forever my favorite cover 

  • honestly really good cover!

  • Prince has and will re+define the art of the "Style+technique" of the guitar.

    And I'm a pianist who dabbles upon the Ax. But I stand by my statement.

    [Oi will,me Lads.]

  • No offense, but if anyone that loves music and especially the guitar, doesn't know that Prince is arguably the best guitarist ever, than ur either racist or racist. No one bumps and grinds and musically rapes the guitar (in the best sense of the word) like The Artist. I'd rather watch grass grow than Clapton, V.H., et al. play. No movement or style at all.

  • @glenneveaux Jimi #1, Prince #2

  • My God - Prince just gives me the goosebumps! I adore him  <3

  • Throw that guitar AWAY! It's all used up!

  • @Downstryke What's wrong with an old beat up guitar??? I have a couple and they play just fine!

  • Prince is such a badass!

  • i have always thought prince wwas one of the best guitarists ever...

  • Dahni is a spitting image of his dad!!!!

    Why did George Harrison have to smoke and why did a deranged fan have to take John Lennon away from us?

  • How on Earth could anyone not like this?

  • if you claim you like women, yet u get turned off by a hot chik cause she is wearing the wrong color panties..ur not straight........ If u cant feel the passion of Prince's performance because his "on stage style" turns u off ...u lack music in ur soul..sry..GD :)

  • the guitar never came down lol

  • Prince is a good musician - no doubt about that - but I hate his way of performing. He's so egocentric. His only interest is growing his own image. Prince you should have stayed in the studio.

  • @ThePallemis What you failed to see is the fact that Prince played the shit out of that solo. It was a tribute to both George and Eric. He played that song like he owned it because he felt it. Grow up and stop the hatin'

  • the solo was so unnecessary

  • @ItsRainingDonkeys you said Prince solo guitar is unnecessary: Well are you envious or what? His fellow musicians allowed him the space to place solo till the performance is over. Or you expected he stood still to satisfy envious people like you? Did you see any of the fellow musicians on stage waving him off for taken more of his fair share? Its all planned.

  • He may have been loud but damn, Prince tore that sh*t up!

  • A shame some of the guys on stage did not immediately realise that a miracle was happening.

    Prince is an amazing guitarist and this solo here is stellar.

  • Who the fuck gave Prince that god damn guitar? Way to be loud as shit...

  • @igessthsisgrwnup The 2nd old man is Jeff Lynne.

    The 1st old man is Tom Petty.

    Both are legends, who played with George Harrison in the Travelling Wilburys, with Bob Dylan and Roy Orbison.

    Homework man!

  • What´s the name of this show?

  • What´s the name of  this show?

  • PRINCE fucking roooocks!!

  • I luv @ the end when he threw his guitar as if to say..U BITCHES ALWAYS DOUBTED ME..FUCK YA'LL IM GONE

  • hows the 2nd singer? is that prince?

    cuz the first old man sounds kinda liek shit

  • @igessthsisgrwnup prince is the little black man who runs on later

  • Who is performing the solo at 1:56?

  • zack wylde is much better than prince, hendrix blows prince away

  • zack wylde is much better

  • tom petty..cough,..is angry...u can tell.

  • I'll tell you why LynwoodAvenue it's not rocket science.The name of the song is call My guitar gently weeps,so there far after every verse someone gets to make there guitar weep,and Prince was chosen to go last and he made that motherfucker cry like a 3 year old kid wanting mamas titty,Wise up or should I say understand what you're listening to.

  • Prince simply destroyed this song ,I mean he flew in and dropped a nuc right on stage,and I love the fucking way he walked off like...ohhhh I'm sorry.... ain't nobody tell yall I was this fucking bad,ok I'll let u slide this time.Prince been a cold motherfucker .

  • @ear4dismuzik you know what, i bet if you asked every person on that stage they would say they were impressed so shut up you dont know anything about the guitar

  • Got a newfound respect for Prince, awesome guitarist!

  • @harleo8281953 No shit!!! I never realized just how awesome he really is!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @harleo8281953 I got a lot of respect for him after watching him singing gospel with some minister. I'm not particularly a fan of gospel music, but he tore the roof off the house that night.

  • amM·mh·mazing guitar zolo by :prince** but really :: i liked that

  • WOOOOOWEEE JIMMIE ROLLING OVA IN HIS GRAVE WITH ENVY

  • Dude... Prince so totally OWNED that guitar!! WOW!!

  • I think Prince gain my respects after this one... Amazing!!!

  • How the Prince became King!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @dolfkist

    Trust me he has had that title in the eyes of many for a very long, long time.

  • Dhani's enjoying the show, and so am I! I did not know THIS about Prince!

  • WHats the name of the song?............this is perfect for practicing solo's

  • @mikolagorbacok While my guitar gently weeps

  • @mikolagorbacok Are you serious? Not only is it one of the most famous beatels songs but its said in the lyrics about 100 times and its in the title.

    Its while my guitar gently weeps by the beatels 

  • Prince threw his guitar at the end to the person that was holding him at 4:54

  • Don't get me wrong,I love Prince,but he gets way too much credit for appearing for 25% of the video. Huge talent all the way around.

  • WOW Prince is a very coool showman and not a bad lil guitar picker lol

  • Amazing! Prince is my hero, now and forever. And after this video maybe people will realize how badass of a guitarist he is.

    I should also note that Prince's music, especially from the mid-80's was inspired by the Beatles. Check out "Around The World In A Day" and "Parade" for further listening.

  • My fucking god, PRINCE!!!!!!!!!!!

  • can someone tell me who is prince? sorry for being an asshole

  • @gorlik123321 - Prince is wearing a red hat, and he's playing the killer electric guitar solo.

  • who is prince? sorry for being an asshole

  • Prince is awesome in this and Dhani is such a cutie!!!

  • where's Mike Campbell & Benmont Tench?.....they would have really added so much more to what is an already great version..but it could have been even better with those two there as well!!!

  • game blouses

  • i mean seriously how the fuck can you dislike this video......people if it wasnt for these guys....their wouldnt be no fucking music today....these guys are legends respect them....honor them dont hate!!!!!!!!!!!

  • This is by far the best quality version of this video on youtube. good stuff..nvr appreciated prince til i saw this

  • tom petty is a masterpiec of music...i love his 60s renditions

  • good solo, but yeah.. not as amazing as people say.

  • Prince looks like a pimp, but he is one badass guitarist.

    And Dhani, sweet little Dhani :)

  • I'm not the biggest fan of Prince but...

    He's solo is AMAZING.

    Look at Dhani's face before (and during) the solo; he's having the time of his life (and so did I).

  • Gotta admit, Prince was a complete bad ass on this.

  • Make that shit cry Prince!!! G*ddamn, that mofo is amazing!!!

  • OMFG!!! Prince is simply AMAZING! What an incredibly emotional guitar player!!! George would have loved it...

  • THAT SOLO WAS FUCKING CRAZY

  • BETTER DON'T GET NO BETTER THAN THIS

  • WHERE DID THE GUITAR GO!?

  • @GreatMasterNCA I think God reclaimed it.

  • H.S. That is one of the best guitar solo's i've ever seen...gotta wonder if the the people there in the crowd were like, WTF?!! who is this guy?! and who knew he could play like that?! Awesome.

  • Prince can play every instrument and  He is one of the most underated guitarist of all time.

  • Its a shame theres such a lag its porlly the second best beatles cover next to With A Little Help from My Friends by Joe Cocker. And prince really is the best

  • i have seen this before and it is the video lag.....prince plays every note.....people have alot of trouble with the concept that he can play a great solo for some reason?

  • @guitarconasor There is an old expression " Talent will always recognise genious"

    So there you have it

  • AWESOME....WOW...

  • Massive Beatle head, didnt know that Prince could do that on the Guitar. Impressive , very much so.

  • 'gently'... hmmm.. not quite - but damn, it weeps.. amazing stuff! Prince is SO cool!!

  • OMG! I have never felt so MUCH during any rendition of any other song. ever. This was brilliantly arranged, what a team. Completely unexpected and totally rocking awesome!

  • @rockeridoifumc are you high? I think what you're referring to is a slight lag in the video.If you think Prince is faking that solo then you are sadly mistaken and a little simple

  • @1ellababy2005

    rockeridoifumc sounds like he lives in a mushroom cloud if he believes what he just posted!

  • let dhani sing his fathers song !!!

  • @abslexly Do you think they didn't ask him !!

  • if one watches the fingers and listens, you will notice Prince is not actually playing this. Pick strokes and fretting hand do not synch at all with the audio. Its either overdubbed or outright faked.

  • @rockeridolfumc Sorry man, it's real.

  • @DIANIXT84 if your talking about the man on the left, yes. the guy who made ELO what it is now or at least used to be

  • @DIANIXT84 yes. the guy who made ELO what it is now

  • So has anyone ever answered the question: where-t-f did the guitar go?

  • @favorsham he has a guy who catches those guitars that Prince throws in the air on concerts. The same guy tells people to give back guitars which Prince often gives someone in the audience.

  • @favorsham I did not see it bounce !! I was listening for an almighty clatter and that didn't happen either.!!

  • my favorite part is at the end Prince is also a magician, he throws his guitar up in the air but you don't see it come back down it vanishes
