@bweezysuperfast he was fucking 16 at the time give him a break! He's better than 99.9% of players that age. Just because he maybe didn't have the EXACT tone and style that E.J. does that gives you grounds to say he "butcherd" it? (spelling mishap on your part right there by the way) How about recognizing that at 16, he was well on his way to something really amazing? You are judging him as if he is 40. I happen to know the guy and now, 5 years later, he's gotten 10 times better. So piss off.
as you can see he oviously has his own sound i mean if he played it just like EJ then he wouldnt have his own sound dumbass that was a good impro....nice speed and creativity...so imo selsun you have no idea what your talking about...and i bet you dont even fucking play guitar...L0osEr
To all the bitter failed musicians out there attempting to bring him down, remember what it's like to be up on stage playing and enjoying the music! He's having fun and playing well even if he is using too much gain, so fucking relax and enjoy.
Anoether thing i wanted to say about this. You see this stuff every day! fucking shredding. What's original about it? They're still playing the same damn three notes per string. ... it's a pissing contest about who can play faster... do something original. It's about phrasing and note choice. How can you choose the notes when all your thoughts are on playing as quickly as possible. Thats what's happening here. It's just sloppy... Do something original. Check out "SSVR" that guy nails EJ best..
There are some guys that can play fast that actually know what they're doing to. I mean i have to give it to guys like vai , andy timmons, and espechially Eric Johnson, they're doing something different while remaining true to the music. Yngwie and petrucci man I really dislike if you take yngwie's live performance stuff slow it down to about 50% and listen to how sloppy it is. they learn a half doozen patterns and then blaze them.
lol they arent even playing the right notes. This could be the worst cover of this song ive ever seen. And jimi hendrix and slash are some other guys who can do both play awesome music and have some rockin speed in there.
gregorg49 hear probly a fuck lot better that u im just past biggner this guys like 19 or somethin jimi hendrix probly wasent this good the he was this guys age
define "better"? Hendrix was a different type of guitarist who played from his soul and heart. THIS IS NOT PLAYED WITH TRUE HEART ITS PLAYED TO FUCKING IMPRESS LITTLE TEENIE BOPPERS! This fast shred shit should be wipped from the fuckin face of the earth its nothing but a bunch of flash...Heartless garbage! Eric Johnson is the only one that stands out with any originality. Andy timmons isn't bad either. Satch is a better teacher then artist. Vai isn't worth talking about. Petrucci is the worst.
People get more opinionated by the day. What makes you so sure this kid didn't play with heart or soul? What dubbed you the know-all of what people feel and give to others? Just because you are unable to feel something out of this doesn't mean others can't. Perhaps you are the one with no heart or soul.
Because I didn't feel it. People are supposed to feel music, ushually in this case they arn't feeling it it's just impressive. no one dubbed me anything I'm just stating an opinion, which i have every right to do. The only thing i was stating was that not only is the shuffle riff played wrong but that three note per string thing doesn't work for this song. Then I started getting attacked. Shred is ushually preatty terrible. People crank the gain and play as fast as they can, NOT MUSIC.
You can't please everybody. I've seen many people play guitar just to impress. That's not what this kid is doing. Look at the way he plays. There's maturity in that. Look at another video of his half a year later. Music is an expression, just like words. Words can be altered by an accent, just like music by effects.
i'm thinking he's playing for the wrong reasons. I'm not saying he cant be great because hes got the chops i just think opening up a beautiful song with some tweedily weedily BS is wrong. Would you shred the shit out of a song like like a rolling stone or stairway to heaven? Not only are they not getting the original message but they're ruining the song in the process. exactly what was done here. Fucking Ruined. This isn't expression its a performance. With a blank face. Read his body language.
k i geuss i no wht u mean and i guess ur right he dosent look like heas really trying 2 do eneything but even if someone does play a song its just a cover right
and so whut its still takes more skill to do whut this guy is doing lol i play with soul all day/ blues and still its easy but this type of shit is way harder and i can feel the soul in this cus to me this speaks lol ur just and old fuck looking up shit on youtube that dosent know shit sbout shit lol ur sad i pittey u.........
I'm 21. Let me know when you hit puberty youngster... When i was your age and playing i might of thought this was cool to. But thats just it, it's cool, not heart. You'll learn one of these days. and according to the videos you have on your profile/youtube page... you still don't get it...
lol youngster im 13 teen and im 6 foot u dumb ass lol and its takes a lot of talent / soul to do this shit and i like any thing from beethoven to children of bodom lol iv seen bb king in concert and iv also seen bob seger in concert lol two great classic's in concert lol u tard go fuck ur self kk have a three way with ur thumb and index fingers douchbag lol hahaha suck this 10" dick lol not go suck ur moms lol sorry im fucking with u dont take any offence lol but ya realy i know kk..............
It's nice that all you can do is insult me as a response. Instead of arguing go work on your chops, you need it. I'm 6'2 by the way, what height has to do with this i don't know. Oh, and learn to spell... with an education like yours I wouldn't expect you to get it.
This is really good...I like that you started out like Eric Johnson does live with some lead ins and some originality but the whole song was more about the speed...it sounded abit forced...like if you make it your own thats cool but then change some drums too..and make a remix type deal...don't change some parts and not others cause it seems as though you couldn't play them...while its is still really good its not a complete songs it comes off amateur like and if you didn't win that might be why
Dude, he made it his own... That's what guitarist's do... I would advise you to keep your mouth shut, get back to Guitar Hero, a Learn Before you Speak
both of you clearly have no idea what a pro performance is. I've only seen one decent cover of the song on youtube and thats the most recent one by a guy with the handle moonchild89
it was a good song and good playing, but the bridge was entirely incorrect, i dunno if u meant to do that on purpose, great talent, the tone was mediocre
Great guitarist but.... the whole improvisation just killed the whole song. Never over do ERIC JOHNSON cuz its impossible. and i think you guys took it too fast.
It's not too bad, but it's about a 3 out of five. I think it's just that a piece of this caliber really takes a lot more patience and dedication, you know?
It wasn't horrible, though. I liked it well enough.
Eric johsnon is easily one of the all time best guitarist they dont call him the master of tone beacouse he cant keep a slow tempo and yes i know i cant spell i liked it a lot maybe tune down the distortion a lil
but playing fast like johnson makes u good beacouse i cant play that and ive been playin 5 years
rofl don't mind the idiots saying you played it too fast, i saw a comment like that on a video of EJ playing it live. some people are just damn ignorant, good job.
Why ruin a classic? this is NOT a shredding song. Slow it down, and appreciate each and every note put into that masterpiece. Don't add your own, you're not Eric Johnson and by that performance, you're not up to editing his stuff.
guy has alot of talent. a little yngwie at the beginning but it sounds kinda sloppy like hes either stoned, drunk, or just doesnt give a shit. if u wanna hear a cleaner version check out moonchild89 he tore this song up.
Like how you made it your own. Dont worry about these people who are complaining. They cant appreciate creativity. Even Eric never did it the same way twice.
nope dude! your opinion is well welcomed, but ur criticism isn't fit to his skills. actually, IMO, he plays very well and very artistic. it's his way of deploying the music with his own like. he likes the music, but he makes his own art derived from it, and i call it a great talent!music is a way of impression and expression, not mimicry all the time!
I thin khe was right on the mark outside of the shred part. To me all shred sounds like shit but thats my opinion. Eric Johnson isn't shred he did something completely different , that's what makes him so great.
started great but then went a bit off course. Andy Ferg's version on You Tube is still the best...

Like how you made it your own. Dont worry about these people who are complaining. They cant appreciate creativity. Even Eric never did it the same way twice.

I have a few pointers.
#1-Go watch an EJ video to learn his style, tone and pace becuase you've disgraced an awesome song.
#2-Kill the distortion, man. What makes this song is the way the tone reverbs
#3-Stop trying to fucking shred becuase you can't. You want shredding? go watch Micheal Angelo Batio.
These things being said; you ruined this song.
Die in hell. ^_^

nope dude! your opinion is well welcomed, but ur criticism isn't fit to his skills. actually, IMO, he plays very well and very artistic. it's his way of deploying the music with his own like. he likes the music, but he makes his own art derived from it, and i call it a great talent!music is a way of impression and expression, not mimicry all the time!

I thin khe was right on the mark outside of the shred part. To me all shred sounds like shit but thats my opinion. Eric Johnson isn't shred he did something completely different , that's what makes him so great.

This was the guitarist's third time playing live. Later on in the summer he played it again with the Maiden Austin band.

You guys are right, the guy didn't get vibe of the song. I think dude was just trying to show off his chops. Technically sound but lacks soul.

Metalheads...can't play to save his soul. This version is a trainwreck.

nothing special, all the notes sounded pretty much right, but this completely missed the feeling the song was written for.
