[davidraiadoo]

[TheBrute60]

Nice to see someone enjoying playing this song instead of just working at getting it right

[joeytruelove]

Yes, a bit much distortion and technique isn't quite there - your fingers are your friends on both hands. ;)

[xeylace]

this video is amazing! you play it very very very good. im big fan of your guitar playing, thanks for posting this video.

[barekallmeg]

Sykt bra! På tide å bringe rocken tilbake til Norge ; ) Drit bra cover!

[BringingThePayne]

Looks a bit like Jaime Oliver :L

[Metalclub1]

[Y5dsophsimpson]

The Sound Is Beautyful!

[CORCHA440]

Nice.....Very Very Nice......

[Rutledgedrummer5]

you must teach me the art of shredding.........

[rocker100991]

do i spot a yngwie malmsteen fan,? the cross on your arm makes me think that

[UrbanZilla]

Amazing, Is the tab the original?

You are very talented!

[PenileFracture]

Holy shit! How many years have you played?

[Revenge8701]

Beast

[thereaflashgordon]

Eric could not have played it better himself

[ivaneu]

Very nice sound man, are you using neck middle or bridge pick up? Dist amp? or a pedal? VERY VERY VERY GOOD SOUND

[stldrgnchoppers]

Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!

[kirk6542]

cool guitar

[Fun0neH]

Men you are god on guitar !

Rock on!

[Marseille5]

That was one of the most amazing things I've seen on YT ! Your playing is pure, perfect and absolutly inspired while you don't seem to give a shit about it.

That's what we call rock n' roll !

Dude, you are fantastic.

[fojtda]

Nice SG by the way! Is that the Angus Young special SG?

[joniiboy]

@fojtda It`s a Angus Young signature SG which we won by basically being the most awesome guy in the whole country (Norway)

[Rockaholick1]

@joniiboy lol thanks dude ;)

[justicewelsh]

Do i sense sensitivity. I had to get over that when i was a starting out , like you. It helped me to thicken my skin and when i did my playing and career blew up.

[Mariwa69]

impressive

[fojtda]

great, but where are those tabs? I think you don't need to attract people on "lessons" with these skills dammit!

[RsGhost1]

@fojtda Description?

[justicewelsh]

Good but beginning is WRONG

[cinderxl]

@justicewelsh Maybe he wanted to be creative and do it his own way...

[justicewelsh]

Yeah which is cool. I didnt intend to come off as critical as i did. KEEP IT UP.

[scream232323]

@justicewelsh its called improvising

[ZIgnorantProdigy]

you = very very good at guitar and it's very impressive. Unfortunately you also look like a massive tool. take off the jacket. Keep up the great guitar work though

[hustler420ify]

wow! this is a 10 for sure!.the first time i ever heard thi song was on guitar hero 2, now i'm hooked

[willprich]

nice angus young sig

[MrGuitarorama1]

fukin awesome man!!! u should so go for auditions somewhere!!

[lucashellen]

Parabéns, muito bom.

vc toca legal cara.

[hoc7key9boy]

im sorry but it looks kinda fake especially ur strummin o ya why is it black and white?

[JEZUZ06]

Do you play guitar AT ALL????

[joshrulz94]

Wow... dummy! Of course it's real!

[musicman102357]

I an giving you 5 stars on this . Intro was a little shaky but still good. You put some of your own licks in there I do the same .

Nice job.

[crazyloz25]

Bro!! That was freaking awesome...you nailed it....You should be in a freaking band band doing tours....And to all the idiots criticizing you, they WISH they could play THIS song like you...good job bro

[sevengerste]

hey dude, frikin awesome cover!! but you gotta switch it from the neck pick up to the bridge pick up.

[chanfuknico]

no se ingles pero amo esta cancion

[ronusalv]

this is authentic playing, ive played an angus SG before and this is what it really sounds like, i'm guessing with a little reverb and delay with a little chorus, with the tone on the middle gauge....a little broad sounding than the fender strat of EJ but still good

[DinkyMax]

@cleverdjembe

If this its not improvements...than lets see how you do at playing this song

[bechaka]

yea man!!!!!

[ebana19]

i love it

[dudeguy242]

again, its sounds really good

[BruskHealer]

how did you get a perfect sound?

[CleverDjembe]

@conormather

You have shit for ears, and so does this guitarist. It's way, WAY off from the original. No improvements have been made, but rather anti-improvements!

[bobmarleydude5672]

you dumb fuck. he made it somewhat his own on purpose.

[squiresoft]

the tone is a little too muddy for me personally, but it was a great rendition. i personally like the smoothed out parts, flows even better :)

[bigalwillis]

hes not playin that!

[tehhkrmn65]

how to you get that spacey-type sound? almost like an echo but not.

[SteveNroses]

maybe reverb with a lil delay?

dunno

sounds good though :)

[poodythang]

Love the nice thick tone of your SG. Great playing !!!

[kvick6]

Angus Young...what a joke! O-ver-rate-ed!

[GuyTotallyCool]

WOW! I think he desrves to be in the top 5 list!!! =)

[guitardoffi]

kult er du norsk???

[HanKang0]

Amazing.

[luckreichert]

the tabs (2) ?

[wander2099]

the tabs?

[301b0y]

OMG YOU ARE AMAZING. keep rocking you won't regret it man we all support you!

[yoshiracer878]

shut off the reverb retard

[wouter273]

why should he??,, it sounds brilliant..

[rosewell1983]

faen ta...hva var det jeg sa angående GNR covere?

[sevengerste]

best cliffs of dover cover ever!!

[gannonniederriter]

whats up with the metronome in the back ground at the beginning?

[Kastralis]

he uses a backing track and the metronome is there to count you into the piece... he cant just magically know when its going to start.

[jtsnowman66]

the original version was recorded on an ES-335, and Johnson uses an SG now for the most part... So actually.....................

[popomczowzow]

Actually Johnson uses a strat for the most part.  That's why he made a signature strat with fender and has been using it as his main guitar for the past few years. But he does us SG's sometimes.

[jtsnowman66]

actually, I will say it again. According to ERIC... he used a 335 for most of this song. The part played on a strat is the middle section that sounds like in his words "I hit a preamp or switched amps" read up before you correct me.

[popomczowzow]

Oh I know he used a 335 on this song. When I said he uses a strat for the most part, I didn't mean on this song, I meant as his main guitar.

[fredrikeklundh]

Keep on rockin in the free world!

[akguitar94]

i know the next song im learning =)

[MickCorgi]

Drunken monkey... Eric Johnson will kiss your ass! I know Norwegians hate being compared to the Swedes but your fingers look like Yngwie's. Kind of fingers all these great violinists had - Oistrakh, Erman, Szeryng

[guilmon182]

Cool! You look like Paul Dionno(sp?) if he played guitar.

[goonyougoodthing]

i can see why you won the national guitar hero of Norway title- best cover ive seen BY FAR

[NYCFreed1]

nice job man

[SoulsthatFly]

Dude, that's awesome!

[TheTarpipe]

lol - I heard that fuck-up at the end. Nice bluesy touch though.

[TheTarpipe]

Nice personal touch on the song - you can tell that you musically understand it and are having some fun with it. Rock on brother.

[brandonopolis]

@TheTarpipe Couldn't have said it better myself. Rockaholick1 is by far my favorite Youtube guitarist because of the level of feeling he's able to put into each song, as well as his own personal style. Personally, I hate guitar covers that are 100% note-for-note identical to the original.

I believe covers should tap into the original song and also showcase some original style. That's why A7X's Walk is a crappy cover, IMO, when most love it.

[bechaka]

yea mannnnnnnnnnnnn !!!

[ben99u2]

wow you nailed that, the tone was great, pretty much flawless

[NGT2O6]

haha stand still

[GogiRB]

YEAH COOOOOOL! I'VE GOT UR SAME GUITAR BUT LEFTY lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol mine is gibson yours?

[mortensen22]

It's a Angus Young signature model from Gibson. It has a devil drawing of Angus on the headstock and shiny plate on the body with his signature engraved. Also there's a vibrato on it.

[qwertys11]

Looks like angus' sg, or is it just me?

[Gu1tar4l1fe]

it is a Angus SG....he won it at a internett guitar competison! :) lucky guy! (sorry my english)

[Raymondo2123]

the passion you play with is amazing its like there's no camera in front of you, only the guitar and your hands. anyway your guitar skills are impressive much better then most guitarist's that are signed

[roysteinar]

By tabs or ear?

[d256138f]

Epiphone

[NeroGargoyl]

[martrocksnuts]

[pellingg]

Every expert on Gutar Hero can go suck granny's balls

[ITAPE4JESUS]

playing an actual guitar feels way better than pressing buttons real fast....Real Gutar>Guitar Hero

[Battusai1984]

noone actualy.........ever........sa­id or asumed that playing guitar hero is the same as playing an actual guitar......way to be intimidated by a plastic controller :)

[Languille]

Agreed

[skoldn]

What the hell? How many gibsons do you have?!

[Stonemeister]

Faen så jævlig bra dette er!

Liker at du ikke spiller en blåkopi men legger inn dine egne små lurerier, og ikke minst, du har det gøy når du spiller. Du kommer til å nå langt.

[richardwu0609]

really cool expression! and a new way of playing this song. quite creative dude!!
