[mertibus]

[paulapixel]

[FredBatyOfficial]

BIg Fred Baty news coming soon! Keep posted for potential tour dates!!!

[9whitechapel7]

hey im a friend of ur bro's (jamie baty) told me to check u out, this is some seriously beautiful stuff man :)

[Fredbaty]

@9whitechapel7 Cheers for checking it out, and thank Jamie for me!

[chicksand3]

i cant tell you how much your writing has influenced mine. I downloaded your tabs and checked out your tunings and now im writing so much beautiful stuff i cant keep up with it. You are teaching people with your music. I have upmost respect for you. Really hoping you put more out there. Oh and if you ever get your hands on another 8-string, Berserker by after the burial would be a treat to see.

[weskos]

Just came back to this. Can't believe I haven't listened to it in a while. This is not only one of my favourite songs of yours, it's one of my faves ever! Takes the edge right off of anything :)

[soco13466]

Most excellent. From a hated "Amrikon.

[FriskyPingu]

what's the tuning for this song? the link is not working for the tab either... man this song is so awesome!

[alina892]

incredible...with so much soul. i love it:) thumbs up!

[carouselcs]

sry i just thought that u are making a cover of the song and it's not yours. no it's clear, nice work then ;)

[carouselcs]

i am not sure you are the one playing :? sry dude but i fell u are just moving ur fingers and the song is going on !

[Fredbaty]

I wrote the song, man. As in, wrote and played all of the instruments. For this video I just cut the guitar lines I'm playing from the backing track.

It never ceases to amaze me how regularly people accuse me of this, but eh. You can go to my MySpace to hear the final version of it.

[keybladewizard49]

@Fredbaty I can tell you're really playing. Someone who isn't really playing wouldn't get the strum/pick pattern right, no matter how hard they try. You really are playing the guitar, and anyone who knows anything about guitar playing would know that.

BTW, this is really pretty~

[JessicaLyseyko]

=] pretty rad =]

[deusAXEmachina]

rad? as in radical? rad?

[yamerBObamerxoxo]

That was very beautiful. I'm still in awe from this very performance. You are an amazing guitarist. Keep it up, mate.

Cheers!

[googrl6]

I love your technique. I love your emotion. I love how your songs come straight from you. I love how you get so into it that people notice and they can't look away. I love.... everything! Lol will you marry me? :p

[yamerBObamerxoxo]

Ah. So beautiful. You managed to get me soothed for those 5 minutes yet again. You did an incredible job.

Cheers!

[weskos]

This is simply sublime. You are my favorite guitarist.

I need your album... NEED : ]

In the mean time.. 5 stars and favorited.

[3245james]

fred... tell me how you pull off so many amazing but entirly different sounding songs :o

do you need to no alot of theory or what. I cant evan work out what chords like Gmaj7 are, I only no the open stuff.

[Fredbaty]

Cheers for the comment, dude!

I couldn't tell you a single one of the chords I play in this song - I just go by positions and what sounds good, because my theory is atrocious. Just find funny tunings and then you have to work out new chords as though you were just starting out, instead of always playing the same old stuff!

[3245james]

haha! I noticed on your powertab acount that about only 1 of your songs is tuned to standard.

I may get around to a video responce at somepoint cause I like playing your songs.

keep writing! cause there great!

[BeefjerkyisPeople]

Breakdown into the fingerpicking part, incredible transition!

Glad to see you also enjoy what you're doing...

[sailabonkie12]

plz plz plz don't quit acoutstic! i like these songs r better then the elictric, i'm twelve years old and play the guitar too but i am clearly not as good as you!

thanks for inspiring me,

sail

[Fredbaty]

Sure thing! Mirror link (the site I'm otherwise using is down at the moment for a server change, sorry about that) is now also in the video comment. I'm glad you liked it, thanks for the kind words.

[Globetrottoir1]

thank you, really inspiring

[georgeink]

dude! you should make a band! get a vocalist a secong guitarist and maybe even a drummer and you'll be an unstopable band!^^ cause this kind of music is something very unique! )

have a great daY!

[arcsibo]

your songs are amazing... make more!

[PandaPooh]

Pretty nice sound you got going there.

Keep up the good work.

I'd love to see another Protest The Hero cover, or some Avenged Sevenfold, or even The Confession for that matter.

[PheonixOrion]

Thanks for putting up a MP3. I can share with with the guys now!

[atheros511]

Did you take lessons or are you self-taught?

[Fredbaty]

I took lessons, but never really for acoustic. Or for shred, for that matter! I'm predominantly self-taught, hence the God-awful technique that my teacher tried so hard to get me to correct, haha.

[TheHeroProtest]

wow man thats really impressive. nice work.

[soco13466]

Why is it that there are only 600 plays, hey this stuff is so good I don't see why Regis Philbin hasn't brought you onto some show, well, I don't know everything there is about recognition of musical talent. You carry on Fred. You make most of the so called "talent" out there look lame... if I were to add you as "friend" on myspace would you accept? I'd like to link as many as I can. (I also like "Fred" the funny kid from Nebraska), oh well he's a comedian... you are a MUSICIAN. EXCELLENT!

[flyingsquirrel73]

Thats a killer tune...nice work-

[KumoKii]

that sounds soooo beautiful, your really talented. and it's funny you'd say that simple pieces are the best, my brother is always telling me that, I try to do things so complicated for some reason! Are you coming out with an album? if so I'll buy for sure.

[Brazilian17]

Wow that was awesome!

Awesome! =O

5 STARs

[tiredoftypical]

beautiful. 5/5

[guns4play]

that was just beautiful

[corbin720]

i dont have power tab, whats tuning for the chords?

[Fredbaty]

It's a free download so I'd strongly recommend getting it, but regardless of that the tuning is DADGCD with a capo at III. Thanks!

[Brazilian17]

Damn...need to buy a capo.

[guns4play]

nice simple is always better althugh i never learnt that yet and i can't incorporate that i always try to do something really complicated but in the end sounds like shit

[Leelowww]

In french today : C'est très entraînant, un son plein, très ample, très complet. Un grand moment de joie. On reconnait la griffe de Crepusculum. Vivement le prochain album.

[DawnClover]

fucking wow... the feeling of it reminded me of a girl i know. :) awesome tune, do tell when your album is out.

[JuicyDBASE]

Oh man, I really needed a calm awesome song right now, thanks for the upload.

[Dakkon544]

Very catchy. It is pretty simple compared to some of your other work, but equally as impressive in my opinion. Thanks for the links too by the way!

[corbin720]

thats what i'm talking about. sweet.

[Blackbooks78]

Awesome tune Fred, very mellow/relaxing :)

[mattiek87]

Awesome. Like it how everything just flows together!

[catguitar]

awesome as usual. I cannot wait to get my hands on a copy of your album.

[Tiednbound]

This is very nice ....

[Acousticcole]

fantastic.

[edster612]

Very nice vibe. Nostalgic in a way as well.

[lobey994]

great job i love it :)

i think i might hit the favorite button :)

keep it up
