Was the greenscreening on the yoshi intentional? Or did it just happen cause its green too?

[azumikik23]

[halohali007]

Really nice Songs u got^^ love every of it :D Bought myself now a 2550z, wanna try to play like you. But I dont get it. Have you learned the scales for every Song or do you do it with tabs. Would appreciate if you would reply.

Thumb up^^

[LaiYouttitham]

@halohali007 Hi there, I learn scale from videos or books, I don't read tabs or notes cuz I didn't go to school.

Cheers!

[Randazzo118]

[perqvind]

A really great song but please please find some better drums and concentrate on the arrangements technically your really good but right now it drops in quality since the arrangement lacks some direction and the rhythm section is really not helping you

[guitarrx3girl]

Spinning through this one again Lai!!! An oldie but a goodie!! LOVE how you jammed out on it!! ♥ Emily

[worshipleader222]

Fun stuff, reminds me of Eric Johnson in style, but very unique to Lai on creativity. Sorry to have labeled you though.

[Vfrezendel]

Great job dude! it makes me remember Joe Satriani's "Summer Song"!

Congratulations!

[SITIA1958]

[abk1s8]

sabai dee Lai.bpen jang dai?

[LaiYouttitham]

@abk1s8  Sabaidee :)

[chadwr85]

Nice bro! Great tone and gotta love the Jem. Its like a Satriani type upbeat song but it meats EVH with the tapping.

[orozvik]

Wy do yu nu artists cover yur face in hiding all the time? Just to add...in my opinion a debut song should be about you. It should not be about your guitar. I saw your guitar...I saw your hat hanging over your head. I don't know what you are or what you look like. But if you are trying to get points and you should be....you should start your vid by showing us who we are watching and listening to.

Period.

[Suddenlysane]

@orozvik

If you want to look at someone while they're playing go check out Lady Gaga on piano or some shit. Lai rocks. It IS about the music with him. He is a genius. Now get back to your mother's basement and admire all of your rock posters while the rest of us close our eyes and LISTEN to the magic that is Lai Youttitham. Hey, Lai, if Ibanez hasn't called.....they SHOULD.

[orozvik]

Wy do yu nu artists cover yur face in hiding all the time?

[madamerotten]

@orozvik Horrible disfigurement from the exposure to high decibels of amplified sound.

[raliac447]

oh so great!

[SkouMusic]

Hey bro, you rock!

This reminds me of Satriani, in a very good way, with your own twist.

Skou

[foxboxer4]

Playing more than wonderful and distinct technique

[laocorner]

You rock as alway. Love to see you perform for our Lao legendary song writer's event on Sept. 3rd in Portland Oregon -USA

You played one of his famous song

[kaitlynthomasaust]

[devax1986]

Purchased your song on itunes and left a good review on there! Hope to see more on itunes soon, or eventually your own compilation album would be great! These kind of upbeat songs are always a great listen and there should be more out there!

[RawkHawkRockin]

Very very nice job! Keep it up!

[daniel93382]

I didnt like it.

[Materazzi0000]

[SonataArctica1212]

[abk1s8]

share list.I wish you and family a great day...Polly

[MikeeRenegade]

COOL...

[matotuHELL]

great playing! It´s great that you make your own songs. They are very nice.

PS: interesting guitar

[cowboys325]

I've always felt that that guitar is incredibly sexy. And the way you play it... makes it even better. Damn, that was hot.

[DonakRV]

@LaiYouttitham Cheers, got it

[grumpgus]

I enjoy this more than anything ever done by Satriani, Vai, or Johnson. The best of shred!!!

[1VIOlON]

LOVE the way the yoshi on your shirt blends in with the greenscreen, so he looks like the background too! Lol.

[heliclops]

Olá, amigo! muito bom seu video parabens, fantastico lindo som. Toca muito valeu.

forte abraço e fique com Deus.

Att.......Juvenil.

[dario10756]

Lai is God

[SouthSpringofficial]

good , i like :)

[Cichy019]

good job.;'/;

[CherubicGuardian]

Cool composition man, keep it up!

[mcgreggor]

Awesome song! Sounds like something Joe Satriani would play.

[Thalysiakeuh]

Outstanding song Lai !

your fabulous and very very talented.

I loved this, just amazing

[oXelienanXo]

awesome playing man. No offence but maybe a tee shirt with green on it wasn't the best idea when using a green screen lol.

[guitarbrad]

Great song - liked the tune and solo too! You get such a nice guitar sound - every note audible.

How DID you do the backing track? [answer pm if you want]

[DonakRV]

Sounding good for a debut pro song! How was the backing done?

[MrHeroRock]

You is real joe satriani

[diggity0607]

Itunes? It has no words kindof weird for Itunes but very cool for youtube cause your a beast

[AceFan88]

AWESOME is all i can say. very well done

[NINARODUS]

Nice original tune!!

Good improvisation!!

Jack

[MultiEnky]

as satriani

[Axisbal]

I am sure there is a subliminal message in this video.

At just after 1 minute, there's a monkey drinking beer.

[feo130]

DAMN!!! This is AWESOME!!! More original songs please :D

[upoint2]

Wowsome! Real talent - keep rocking.

[SlickPick21]

I love how Yoshi's face is the right color to be affected by the green screen back-ground. :D That's awesome dude, nice song.

[mkoujan]

i cant stop this part 2:35 i love it . you are awesome man

[ChromeCelica00]

Sounds awesome man, I like the little phaser effect you got goin on too throughout the song.

[SwordofLigth]

Man how i wish i could be there listening to you shred on the stage.

Rock their socks of Lai!

[tubesbestmusic]

You got passed by some chick ON A SCOOTER.....go FASTER GRANDMA!!!!! haha....that was some serious rocking...nice one.

[LaiYouttitham]

@tubesbestmusic Hey! it was my brother that drove haha!!!

[tubesbestmusic]

@LaiYouttitham that makes perfect sense...it would be hard to steer and play the guitar at the same time, I should have figured that out! haha

[Antayn]

Steve vai's son? :) Great job! Love the tone!!!

[devax1986]

This is a decent first song. Reminds me a little of a Satriani song, but with your own flavor. Good stuff.

[NvdVen]

does anyone know in which modes or scales Lai is mostly playing? i really love his playing! awesome song btw! i bought it ;)

[schism206]

someones been listening to summer song a lot :)  nice playing

[Shelbones01]

hey man ive been subbed to you since you did while my guitar gently weeps if that was you? well its been a while and im definitely gonna buy that once i get my parents credit card ahah

[ale11235]

Hey Lai, I showed my support! How about "Vientiane on my mind"?

Love your music!

[oRteP]

Oh nice!! I loved the kinda morlam part its awesome!!!!

[hotshot331]

Awsome song, and as rastan1977 said, you sound like Satriani.

[rastan1977]

You sound very much like satriani.Has this been said before?

[mkoujan]

buy this kid song even if you wore broke like me .....

[mrbr549]

Long-time fan, this is one of your best! Recommend it to everybody.

[mkoujan]

lool did you see the monkey ?

[babaluboo123]

Whew!

You are the bomb.

[dnlwood]

Being following you for a while and this great and proud to support you. Downloaded from iTunes. Have a great gig at Langley. I am sure this song will go over big for you.

Looking forward to more from you.

[LaiYouttitham]

@dnlwood  Thank you very much:)

[GuitarShowPlayer]

awesome guitar playing!!!!

[peteshredder]

i know something was off with your shirt lol

[jinzo96]

[1McStee]

Dragon Ball Z new :D

[MathFC89]

Lol, monkey drinking beer. Btw, you rule!

[LabelTeknoCool]

Accident >.< poor fella indeed :s

[bgcorporation]

Favorited!!! I don't have itunes. I think I will get it just for this song.

[Pookylight]

Wow great ! I love tone of your guitar and the way you're playing !

[Tadek59]

Awesome Song !

Bravo !

[conqueronline69]

You're really skilled mate, keep up the good work

[Guiitar81]

OMG! Yoshi is animate :DD

[pimpbassist]

Awesome tune, and love the hat xD

[misturchips]

Keep 'em coming, man! Your lack of confidence is puzzling - OF COURSE you're 'good enough' to be on iTunes - just look at some of the CRAP that is there already, and you start out with your introductory jam so many levels above.... Go get 'em!

[rhart49]

That was epic. Well done man 

[Meatybenji116]

Awsome song man! im sure lots of people are gonna buy it :)

[jprosasrrd]

Yes i like!!*****

[canucksandorigami]

Is tht Philippnies :D!

[skbworld2008]

oh and forgot to say in previous post, its quite a catchy song you have written.

[skbworld2008]

This may seem like a dumb question. The decision to upload was this based on number of subscribers? and do you perform live anywhere currently?

[LaiYouttitham]

@skbworld2008 I was more worried about quality, I don't know how people set the stand, I never was helped by any pro, so any feedback will be appreciated, I'll be performing in Langley BC, Canada on July16th.

[Gerlang09]

@LaiYouttitham nice i live by langley like 20 min away

[paulmtrepanier]

AWESOME! I had just enough left in my itunes account to purchase it. Well done man, please keep up the great work!

[PwnYouAtSoccer]

hahahaha 2:48 a monkey with beer and a cigarette 

[SomethingWild9608]

Section at :52 sounds a lot like Summer Song. Excellent playing though!

[Lazzle22]

1:01 Monkey!

[zelsha]

wow,incredible!made my day ;O)

[morbious10]

Very nice! I like your playing style.

[allaboutgravity]

nice! more of that please!

[timstime1970]

Wow!! How do you do it?!?!! Very Satriani for sure...

[MiikeCS]

very joe satrianish! nice one man.. how i wish i had ur guitar ;(

[felipemp93]

Nice shirt :3

[Solvi27]

Brilliant !

[DerekNebel]

that is the sickest i've ever seen, once i get an itunes card i'll definitely be getting it!

[wizard663]

Sweet,, love it.

[BulletSpongeMedia]

I like how when you keyed out the green screen, it also keyed out yoshi.

[0zzyfan44]

Nice!!!

[trigardonAQ]

a great song, comprising of many technical, memorable licks. Well done

[FireBoom1]

I become a game designer... I'm for sure... hiring you and paying you a shit load to make the games level soundtrack.

[popstotexas]

Sounds great Lai! Do you have CD yet? Rock On!

[rd2ed]

This is very good Lai! Another great one (of several) for iTunes is your original composition "Stranded".....

[555Custom]

I don't know if you change your sound or if it's the jem doing that, but i love the song and the new sound :)

[KanadianRavn]

This song is sick man! Love it!

[Jagamp]

That was absolutely brilliant, you just amaze me every time. Love it :-)

Thumbs up and faved.

[Sustructy]

wow, nice!

[hysonly]

Really awesome Lai :)

[TheMcFearsomes]

Right on! Keep up the good work! More please!

[theamazingtoot]

i have a guitar but i suck at playing...i only know a few chords C,G,D,F sharp, A, E, and E minor, im trying to learn bar chords now... oh i just remembered i learned B and B flat recently but still it feels like i'll never get to this point! D=

[1withguitar]

@theamazingtoot practice for hours a day i promise. It wont take months ittl take a year or 2 before you start to develop the skill. Just practice right everyday and youll see results

[brandonfiend]

VERY GOOD!! If I wasn't broke, I would buy this in a heartbeat.....next paycheck, i'm getting it.....beautiful!

[dwg316]

dude, well done !!!!!
