  • awesommeeee...!!!

  • Paul has an alter-ego: 'F.N. Amazing'.

  • His string skipping is so perfect it just sounds like he's playing everything all on one really long string.

  • Uli Roth Earthquake ripoff at the beginning

  • @janderson2000 I wouldn't say it was a ripoff.

  • @glutamine001

    I disagree. Marcel Coenen's Colour Journey is a record only a guitarist can love. This album however, is an album guitarists must love.

    It's a lot of incredible music that happens to be expressed through guitar. Perhaps it couldn't be done any other way.

  • paul gilbert is the law

  • another classic from the master..nobody is cleaner at picking and holding every note on each phrase for that millisecond longer than us mere hackers

  • @conken1000 That's what i was thinking. He is the master!

  • ME QUIERO SOLLAR ESTE TEMA HOY ..PARA USTEDES..PAUL GILBERT

  • Killer Riff KILLER!

  • If you are listening to Paul Gilbert on YouTube, you can't see a dislike button.

  • Such a blood pumping track and the tone is to die for!

  • Who are the 13 Ass Monkeys that didn't like this tune?

  • Comment removed

  • I don't like this kind of music, but this isn't bad. Really like the Bark at the Moon sounding riff.

  • I have a great demonstration of the main riff from Fuzz Universe on my page, tabs for it will be up very soon if not already!

  • that sweet riff at 0:55 was so 80s sounding!

  • GO GO GO mister Gilbert. Love it!

  • I can sing this song because Im half amplifier

  • the best 7 minutes and 1 second of my day.

  • Super great fantastic amazing song/composition!!!

  • THUMBS UP IF "INSERT WITTY COMMENT HERE"!

  • Paul gilbert one of the finest players that will ever live. LEGEND

  • THIS SHOULD HAVE MORE VIEWS!!!

  • i am wet

  • thumbs up if this makes your dick weep

  • Comment removed

  • A song like this doesn't even deserve vocals.

  • Best part since 0:01 to 7:01

  • Does anybody know the very last chord he take,what is that?

  • stay back fuzzy bieber!!!!!

  • Damn.This is a verrry lyrical number.I love it.

  • great song

  • yay for the hemispheres chord at the end!!!

  • 162.162 views - way too few 

  • gotta love the great use of the flanger effect

  • That´s how I always wished, Van halen would sound in the present.

  • awesome...

    

  • This song did it for me! Paul is in my opinion the best guitar player in the world! I know intellectually there is no such thing but being aware of his career in music and what his peers have done for the guitar I would say Paul has continued to grow as a player and it's not just about technique he adds emotion despite his chops! I wanna see you live please tour Canada!

  • OWN ALL ASSESSS

  • the part that starts at 4:50 is especially kick ass, aside from the entire song being kick ass itself.

  • AWSM !!!

  • 4:50 - 5:35 spped sherd orgasm.

  • So stoked, in a few hours i'll never need to youtube this again

  • kinda sounds like a racer x rehash

  • @clintusmaximus Is that meant to be a bad thing? :)

  • @MeetyHam I know this is going to sound wierd but being a professional musician and studio owner and a lover of technical music, i have liked gilbert since i was kid when he was in racer x and I think Paul Gilbert is good enough not to have to recycle. I mean look at how much Dream theater recycles shit. It gets so old and Petrucci is better than that. Of course he might have label pressure to crank somehting out but Gilbert is too good to repackage old tunes

  • @clintusmaximus this particular song was said by paul gilbert to be a return to speed to sorta show how you can have speed and still have it be rock and not exactly metal... or something of the sort.

  • Es simplemente increible!!! y verlo tocando en vivo todavia aun mas!!! ;)

  • fuck off jack johnson, you cant play the guitar

  • i have just take a shower, drying my hair headbanging to this song

    PAUL GILBERT EXTREME FUCKING HAIR DRYING ROCKS!

  • This song kicks so much ass its a masterpiece!!!!

  • it's GREAT!!!

    

  • Very Rush, and I mean that in a good way :D

  • this music is what I shall have sex to with the love of my life (Y) WHO IS WITH ME?!

  • I thought Paul hit the pinnacle of his writing and talent 20 years ago?

  • Justin Bieber passed 12 times on this song, discovered what real music is and became jalous.

  • @SuperMegaMantus FUCK YOU. seriously FUCK YOU. why is that thumb whores like you always make smart wanna be comments about stupid things on videos that have absolutely no relation to whatsoever??get a damn grip

  • Ive been playing guitar for like 10 years.. i was just wondering whats the best Paul Gilbert song to try to learn first. I pretty much like em all. i tried scarified ......couldent pull the string skiping sweeps.. : (

  • @digitor24

    down to mexico?

  • @digitor24 Down To Mexico is easy. Technical Difficulties if your looking for a challenge also Curse Of The Castle Dragon(the main riff is pretty easy but that solo is a bitch to nail).

  • @digitor24 KEEP AT IT...don't just give up, you practice until you bleed and then YOU PRACTICE AGAIN. until you pull it off. if you want chops like pauls this is the only way.

  • @digitor24 no worries. He has a lesson specifically for that. look up paul gilbert string skips.

  • @digitor24

    Mostly everything on spaceship one is pretty easy to nail, most of the songs on SFBADR are intermediate (minus the solo) and doable even with the solo with some. Fuzz Universe is definatly up there in diffulculty...Scarified is probably one of his hardest songs to nail, and Technical Diffulculties with the solo is up there too (without the solo its fairly easy...)

  • 12 people don't live in the same universe

  • Holy shit, this album rocks, long live ROCK'N'ROLL

  • 12 people were knocked upside down by the awesomeness,.... and thus,.... pressed what they saw as thumbs up button and what is apparently a dislike button

  • Sucha badass. <3

  • People need to stop making "X people dislike" comments, because it isn't funny, it isn't original, and it is just fucking stupid.

    Anyway, this song. . . is. . . so. . . fucking. . . amazing. This is music I can make babies with, and when those babies become old enough, I will tell them that they were conceived with this playing in the background, awwwww yeeeeaaaah

  • @IMAGIMATIONanimation 1656 people liked this song because they were pwned by Paul Gilbert's awesome noodling skills.

  • It seems that 12 peoples hands had so much jizz on them, after hearing this, that they missed the like button.

  • This song is in the key of Paul Gilbert#, the scale is face melting.

  • @F3LLOP4NDA ahahah

  • @F3LLOP4NDA Actually its F#

  • Sounds so Rhoads like in the intro riff after the long super fast classical licks.

  • It's just eargasmic. Paul's a genius, an amazing musician. Hope he continues making us feeling chills for a very long time!

  • funny the cover kind reminds me of Scott Pilgrim =)

  • 1605 people liked this song.

    12 people didn't.

    These 12 people need to deal with it and learn how to play.

  • I like the part where he is playing the guitar!

  • 12 fuckers must die

  • The part with the muting is sweet

  • napaka galing ng scale na ginamit nya na amaze talaga ako PROMISE

  • 12 people will never discover what TRUE fucking balls to the wall rock and roll is.

  • Hes holding an Ibanez FireMan!!!!

  • Paul isn't actually playing on this song, he's having sex with the guitar and the music is just an orgasm.

  • @OctaneMyDisease An intense, 7 minute long orgasm? Damn...

  • @Buttanick yea I know not long for Paul, but he fought a bear before-hand so he is a bit tired.

  • @OctaneMyDisease

    I guess he sure knows how to FINGER his way around the neck! HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA I AM SO CLEVER

  • @trinoply how old are we?

  • @JEDSaje15

    HA HA YOU ARE SO MAD YOU ARENT AS CLEVER AS ME LOLOLOLOL

  • anybody know any more songs in the style of  1:52 ,,,???? please help

  • @sdevon90 buckethead soothsayer, and squid ink. but there are like 500 of his songs that are like that

  • @zeppelin25101980 yea i like soothsayer but never heard of squid ink... thanks too btw

  • @sdevon90 found another buckethead song you might like its called "Simper"

  • @zeppelin25101980  ha cool thanks bro

  • 3:27 randy solo ^__^

  • @dankspanktank More like a common pentatonic lick ^^

  • How could any hater rate this one with *Thumbs Down* ?!

  • 12 people wish their pinkys were as long as Pauls

  • This is just so fucking epic.

  • isn't that the same guitar in the picture the guitarist of system of a down is using?

  • WE need to put pressure on marty freidman and paul gilbert to make an album together!!!!

  • @Guitarstring187 ...you're saying this because of that Rock Fujiyama episode, aren't you?

  • @artcellrox hell ya and also because i think these two shredders have the best personalities as well and that shows up allot in their playing. Of all the shredders these two dudes are the nicest and coolest.

  • 0:47 to 0:49 i believe this one of the rare cases where the master is influenced by the student. that riff basically IS iceman by buckethead.

  • @GoodMetalFTW um might be diff than you think there are allot of chuck shuldner sounds on here. Bucket head isnt really in the same league as paul anyway

  • @Guitarstring187

    you're right, he isn't in the same league has paul. he is in a league of his own that nobody can surpass. he is the most diverse guitarist in history, nobody plays the amount of genres he does and can actually PLAY all of them and not half-ass it. this has a chuck schuldiner tone, but the playing isn't too close to chuck schuldiner. not enough harmonic minor in there. also, did you even listen to iceman? it's pretty much the same riff.

  • @GoodMetalFTW the riff is kinda close but that actually happens allot in music. Ive written allot of songs that have similar riffs but a different feel and aim than the originals. If anything maybe they appreciate each other. still i thinik paul has way more chops and a more mature sound and that's soley why i dont like bucket head. He got to much of that industrial nu metalish sound which i find immature but thats just my two cents. And we will all never fully agree

  • @Guitarstring187

    nu-metal? no, avant-garde and noise metal. i think a select few things he does sounds immature, but most of it sounds very polished and well organized to me. he has his own style and his own style consists of at least 15 genres. the riffs are different, i just found it ironic that paul's student, who was so influenced by paul, made a riff that sounded like a paul riff before paul wrote it.

  • AWESOME........WOOOOOOOOOOWWW

  • AWESOME....WOOOOOOOOW

    

  • AWESOME......WOOOOOOW 

  • Paul Gilbert is the true guitar god!

  • Paul Gilbert still amazing as always. Genial music. Thanks Paul!

  • I ...... came.

  • the start of this song really reminds me of the intro to Megadeth's "Lucretia"

    anyone else?

  • @hsarhTsseldniM I don't hear it

  • @MusicJunkiez69 and one second lol

  • This album has an awesome sound. Paul's still got it!

    I'm proud to have 'Gilbert' as my middle name ;)

  • Why are we discussing the theory behind Technical Difficulties when it would be much more interesting to discuss the theory of this song which is much more complex??

  • Alright baby!

  • Alright that explains it. But he isn't necessarily changing any specific intervals he is just arranging them differently. all of the notes in E minor pentatonic are contained in C lydian.

    And i am a piano player

  • guitar hero!

  • 4:16 seems like some marty freidman rubbed of on him. Sounds so sick

  • PG is a genius

  • When will this album be released universal-wide?

  • 1:19 killer riff starts !!!!!!!!

  • 11 tone deaf bastards ...

  • They should totally make a movie about Gilbert just playing for 2 hours straight. I'd totally watch it.

  • @redknight91 He has a few movies of just playing guitar..There great, google it for the torrents.

  • @0Religion they're great**

  • @0Religion Thank you! : )

  • someone should make a "stream of instrumentals" for paul like they did for dream theater/lte

  • one of the best players ever.....

  • Can;t wait to start learnin stuff of the new album!

  • 0:48 sounds like Buckethead's "Iceman" song! :D Or... Iceman sounds like 0:48 o.O Anyway, its still cool :)

  • @Bucketheadisgod94 - PG is buckethead

  • @lostmusic37 No lol, he isnt :)

  • @lostmusic37 hence, PG is god 94?

  • I had this song on repeat and was reading the novel, 1984 and I nearly heard this more than 40 times, all I wanna say is, if a movie ever gets made of that novel, this is the theme song. Truly Amazing. God bless PG.

  • @MrDemino you can read for 46 hours? :D

  • @JgHaverty :P time has no meaning when you listen to PG :)

  • Listen to the transition between 5:35 and 5:40 the best in the whole song. Probably one of the world's most stylish transitions.

  • 114,391 views by 2000 people. :) We are devoted fans haha

  • he is technically amazing and trully virtuoso but his music kind of sucks compared to satriani and vai..

  • @MrCold768 Have you heard any of satch and vai's new shit? Gilbert keeps going forward. Satch (especially!) and vai are going sideways. I LOOOOOVVVVVVEEEE Satriani, but cant stand his last couple albums. Vai is playing with concert bands (Which is annoying), and paul gilbert is writing stuff he's never done before. So.... yeah. In 1994, satch and vai had PG beat. Cheers.

    For what its worth I still think vai is a "better" guitarist...

  • @JgHaverty satriani is more mellow now, age of course has a factor in it, but there is also a maturity to the music, he delivers his emotions and feelings with less noise. He has a range of albums for every taste to enjoy. He goes from like totally relaxed blues album ("Joe Satriani") to a album inspired by techno music ("Engines of creation"). He is 52 and he still rocks more than many todays bands and solo artists. That my friend is amazing. Vai is the most experimental player ever. Truly god

  • @MrCold768 Yeah, its just frustrating to me. His last 3 albums could all be the same album :( Every album before was COMPLETELY different. I honestly believe they are at the point where they have enough money to just sit back and do what they REALLY want to do (vai especially with his symphony crap he's doing)

  • @JgHaverty have you even heard satriani new album? he has rock elements, blues, funk, indian-spanish mixture, even gospel..you cant make completely diverse albums..i mean, overall he IS a rock musician.. i admire him because he made tons of great melodies and riffs..as far as vai, he was never one-genre specific..sometimes he does make a little too much experiments and its kind of hard for listeners to understand.. he is a musician and he has to satisfy his soul first.. then think about audience

  • If Yngwie was ever the king of guitar he has been dethroned!!!!!

    LONG LIVE KING PAUL!!!!!!!

  • @3.20 epic solo :')

  • dunno what he said??? butt i agree!

  • Que Dragonforce ni Dragonforce!! jajajaja INCREIBLE pAUL GILBERTUN BESTIA. QUE TECNICA Y QUE VELOCIDAD DE LA RE CONTRA MIL CONFERENCIA! y como siempre lindas melodias con sus riffs. Unico.

  • hmm I wonder if this album is available locally

  • fuck that riff that starts at 1:20 makes my skin jeez!!! its not for the cold that gets in because i opened the window while listening to these so that my neighbors will know that they must respect even though im listening to these in full volume.....its the intensity of the song!!!! PG...........wc means Playing GOD!!! and im a metalhead but PG is my guitar god forever!!!! \m/

  • technically one of the BEST musicians in the whole world!!! Bravo Paul :) Long live!

  • the number of likes is 1337 right now XD

  • @Gortex2824 one week has past, 1365

  • This song is so typical gilbert,and that's why i love it!! it's just 100% rocknrolllllll and beyond.....

  • Intro reminds me of Building the Church for some reason...

  • 9 PEOPLE MUST GET OUT OF PAUL'S YARD

  • @cbar0x lol

  • @cbar0x

    now there's 12

    where do they find these bozos?

  • @cbar0x 12 people must be out of their damn minds.

  • damn..beast mode

  • God dammit. Fuck Paul Gilbert.....just fuck him. I'm tired of him making me feel so awful about myself
