Willy Wonka Pure Imagination Cover by Tito Ortega acoustic

[toocoolotool218]

great playing and great singing too!!!!

[pinkvolvo2001]

Really good cover TITO!

[CharenceAM]

Are there any tabs for the guitar? I'd love to do the same cover based on yours. If not would you be willing to do a video on how to play this. If possible, I'd hope to et a reply.

[deathslayer101]

do one in d minor

[mrpaz028]

GREAT COVER! I love your vocals. So Soulful. Thank you sir.

[Champ675]

IT'S A MATTER OF KEEPING THE LEGAND OF WILLY WONKA ALIVE



[ThePlatypusManifest]

ha i love your singing!!!!

[ScreenNameMissing]

I was honestly a little hesitant to click on and watch this cover... but I am REALLY glad I did... I really like the sound, arrangement and your voice is quite unique with an original flavor to it. I APPROVE GOOD SIR! :3

[Taymix05]

i was surprised, coz all these people putting down your singing. but that was brilliant!!!

[samguitarguy]

i think your singing is great, lots of haters are just gonna hate,

your good

[hellosven]

i agree with @TheKhwajaKing. doug funny must be an idiot. i've been singing and performing for 7 years years and i could definitely imagine you playing your own show. pitch isnt the most perfect but 95+% accurate and i think it adds to your personal style. doug is a douche.

[pamuyaonatah]

Hey man i loved this medley, pure imagination is my all time fave song. ive been trying to figure out how to play by ear for years now cuz most tabs blow. if u could share the chords u use i would greatly appreciate it. once again awesome medley.

[MzRaj]

Wow. I don't know why people have to hate so much. I thought your rendition of the song was great! Really easy-going and maybe kinda bluesy. I didn't know Harry Connick Jr. did a version!

And I think you have a great voice! I mean yeah, you may have had trouble hitting a couple notes or had a rough spot or two, but overrall? Completely fine! Don't listen to the jerks.

:) :D

[audiobreather]

Damn that was amazing man! I love your version!

[TheAwkwardBanana]

Great singingin!

[1988theRick]

I LOVE THE CANDY MAN PART

[TheBoyofnothing]

Hahahaha good music

[mto0016]

[apetit43]

[drakedep]

ok this guy has the gayest voice EVER

[tacotime3]

Absolutely brilliant cover of this song! U gave it like a jazzy kinda feel which I love. It sounds something like Andrew Garcia would do. Jw could u link some tabs or do a tutorial I would love to play this as cool and as well as u did!

[benharperlover987]

You are beautiful! : )

[35823582]

[btyrrell1]

I really enjoyed it. Great job Tito. You have a real connection with your guitar. Just awsome.

[harun301]

this is some sick stuff dude nice job

[crazyivan5900]

have you ever thought of making tabs of this?

[peacexpolitics]

you seriously should add this on itunes. i honestly would buy your song :D

[AlanG16]

WAHOOOOOO GET DOWNN!!!!

[nupta]

Great job! Any chance you'd be willing to tab it out?

[CharlieJulietEcho]

Beautiful man. You have a great voice.

[blackeneddove]

This is so nice -- I really like the guitar, and you play this so well. I would love an instrumental version of this on a CD -- I would just play it on repeat and go about my day... cooking, or cleaning...or reading... it would make wonderful chill music too. :-)

[sshine3kaar]

wow your really good i really liked everything you blew my mind

[TheZooDork]

That was amazing!

[titoortegarocks]

@Michaelversusworld Um....WOW. Thanks, but I would probably recommend someone who actually knows what they're doing, not me.

[dougfunny89]

vocally you should not sing, or practice more, guitar playing is absolutely brilliant though. the beginning was good i could fall asleep to it. the candy man part... pls let that go...

[titoortegarocks]

@dougfunny89 Thanks for the feedback. I appreciate it. However, I based it on the Harry Connick Jr version, which also includes the Candy Man excerpt, so I just went with it. Maybe I'll post just the Pure Imagination part of it sometime.

[Tommy7f]

@titoortegarocks thought the singing was good mate. I want to learn to play guitar just so i can play this!

[TheKhwajaKing]

@dougfunny89 what are you talking about??? His voice is brilliant!!!! You have to be joking, lol...

[TheInkacola]

great job!

[r0bb3rt5]

ok if i were to pick a music mentor it would most likely be you xD!!! too bad i play piano....but this is an awesome video..!

[titoortegarocks]

@r0bb3rt5 Wow. I'd recommend someone good for a music mentor, man.

[r0bb3rt5]

@titoortegarocks your music rocks..dude..honestly i wanna play this song but ok. lol

[benharperlover987]

@titoortegarocks : dude you are really really good. You play with heart and soul.

[dcbabi93]

Man dis is awesome u dnt mind if i were to ask u for some lessons would u???

[titoortegarocks]

@dcbabi93 Lessons? Like, how to play this song? Or just lessons in general....I'm a horrible teacher.

[dcbabi93]

@titoortegarocks yea like how to play the song lik u played it lmao cuz i kinda suk but im able 2 put 2 nd 2 togetha

[buttass69]

[zabezabe]

[dannyhood66]

Dude you got a little 70's in you towards the end..Pretty cool..ha!

[AznPrideGuild]

dude this is amazingly good don't listen to any bad comments!

[mikeypavs]

dude this version is pretty kick ass the whole ska mix is sick i want it on my ipod hahaha. you gotta perfect that ish nd id buy it !

[StudioFail]

You did well with it. I like the jazzy tang to it. Of course, the original will always be better. But this is by far one of the better renditions. Keep playing, my good friend.

[apetit43]

dude this is a tight cover, very nice original accompaniment dude. Don't listen to what those other people are saying they probably don't even play, they probably listen to lady gaga or something gay, but anyways do you have any tabs bro?

[yatwice]

i think ur timing is a little fucked when it comes to the singing

[ChrizPow]

Excellent cover dude keep it up

[whattuppg]

way to destroy a classic you... fuck. and your user name??? conceited much!?? lol maybe if you had some skill but damn dude

[titoortegarocks]

@whattuppg I'm glad you hated it enough to watch and comment on it twice. Thanks for watching.

[desireerock88]

@whattuppg Wow Tito that is much better than I or anyone commenting on this video could ever do.

[TheInkacola]

@whattuppg your a fagg

[whattuppg]

way to destroy a classic you... fuck

[mikereyes78]

This is a great cover, WTG Tito!

[blurtopia]

Dont like it sorry pal :(

[mmmarshall8503]

dope cover...

[candyberried]

What's up with all the negatives on here, this is a great cover.

[nastyn811]

Very good man, I love this song and it's nice to see that people are trying to keep it alive with their own interpretations. Don't let people get you down dude , some people just don't appreciate beauty , no matter what form it is in . This isn't my favorite version but I can still appreciate it . Good job

[menzelcassini]

Excellent job, man. Thumbs up.

[katiethecuttie]

I like this alot, great work : ) you have a wonderful voice

[Oz4theWorld]

Forget the negativity Mr. Tito! I loved your version. You did a great job. Pleas keep playing!! :D

[bthor76]

Need more practice playing guitar. Notes weren't strung together seamlessly.

[Deygohhh]

This is truly a fantastic rendition of a masterpiece.

[neatfreeek]

[crazedfan7589]

[JEHBLAZE14]

I LIKE THIS RATING:100%

[jamexcel]

loved the creativity!.. You put together a magnificent piece. I just wished I heard a little more conflict in you heart. Maybe you have been able to face some of your demons since putting up this video 2 yrs ago. If so, I would love to see you sing it again! Thanks for the creativity.

[chevelier]

holy crap this is so awesome

[ltcornflakes]

Get a new mic!

I wanna hear the awesome better!

[monkeyparty632]

I've seen so many people post covers of this song while adding a jazzy flow of which I'm not too fond.

I lvoe how you've found a way to add the acousit soul to it. This is quite honestly the best cover I've seen for this song.

[Aydzzzz]

well i just read the comments. that buchoogdelight is a faggot. dude you did really well im intregued ( dont know if i spelt it right ) but i was by how you made the two songs into one. was good. keep it up.

[sasuke10fan]

Really good man i love it

[Cocknockerofl]

Pretty good.

[ellonylynn]

really aweome job. I've never heard this song done this way. It opened my eyes to something different.

[sbasmaling]

Yayy! I really like this. You're a great guitarist and a pretty good singer. Yayy for you! ♥

[niceguyhere65]

I think you are amazing.

I listen to this all the time.

It makes me smile.

Thank you for this.

[Dabidster]

Good shit man.

[JimvanKlaveren]

I like buckethead version more its more creepier lol

but your acoustic interpretation is good too, i play it way different but i play electric and i cant sing xD

[ScaringCrows]

i really liked this, would you provide tabs for the whole song?

[crazyivan5900]

yo man, lemme know as soon as you post tabs to this. i have been wanting to learn this cover since i saw the vid like 3 or 4 years ago. i have a chance to perform it on the 23rd man, so please, post tabs and link me to em bro. keep up the good work.

[greenbastard50]

im sorry I prefer wonkas version better for a variety of reasons. Purely because it doesnt suck or rely on one instrument without vocals.

But it was okay :D

[titoortegarocks]

It's true. Wonka does provide the best version. I'd never compare myself to Gene Wilder. But I'm curious as to how you've concluded that my version does not contain vocals. If you don't like my version, that's fine. But you should be sure to watch videos for just a little bit longer before you come to such ignorant conclusions. Thanks for watching!

[Benzenering1004]

Those strings are so tight i had to shield my eyes for fear of sharpnel..hehe, but really was very very good.

[smoothmover100]

i`ve been whipped by a guitar string snapping it hurts so bad it was 2cm from my eye i had to have 6 stiches

[fattyfarts]

seriously...im in love LMAO

good stuff

[allboutdabenz94]

omg... u didnt even have to sing you got me hooked with the intro. really amazing cover

[hammoud]

That's freaking unreal! Well done.

[titoortegarocks]

yes.......things.......pizza

[monkeylane99]

ass

[titoortegarocks]

carrots

[DestructoidReaper]

i don't think willy should have been mixed with candy man XD

[titoortegarocks]

Yeah.....I wasn't sure if I would follow through with that, but I did, just to add the jazz factor

[Nechellep]

OMG., I love your version!! great job!!

[dfish58]

I'd PAY you a million dollars for the tabs or tutorial of this song! UNBELIEVABLE! I've been looking for guitar tabs/chords to any of Connick's stuff, but have been unable to find anything. But stellar job though!

[Raxilla]

I really enjoyed that. Good job.

[aciticxblood]

Woah, not expecting that!

[gfcjr110674]

wow!

[corrkyme]

Dude your bad ASS!!!! seriously! That's some awesome playin!

[titoortegarocks]

Was that seriously a question?

[s004237]

You are very talented. I found though that that the guitar was a little bit harsh as the original song is quite soft and beautiful, though it sounded incredible. You have a great voice!

[lwood311]

Tito, You are very talented and your version with the guitar and singing sounded beautiful to me!! I loved it!!

[nashelly92]

ohhh baby boy

u are my super hero

i loved the cover

wi ai ni (L)

[jammyz444]

Amazing, that is the coolest one i have seen of this song...

[twinkys12]

up yours chump

[Razielian]

dont be dumb...just listen to the music...dont like it...leave...how in the hell are you gonna argue with the dude who put this up??

i love it

you dont need to...youtube only has a billion other videos. i totally see why you need to sit here and complain

[titoortegarocks]

Dear twinkys12,

I can only assume by your choice of screen name, that you sit around all day long eating twinkies. I am also guessing that you eat 12 at a time.  You should probably be careful, as the possibility of a heart attack is increased with every one, or 12, you eat.

Just in case, let's keep in touch so I can go to your funeral because, let's face it, nobody else will. You know it's true. Poor guy.

Thanks for watching!

[buchoogdelight]

fucken dick

thanks for sharing!

[titoortegarocks]

@buchoogdelight I'm sorry, I didn't get that. From your lack of complete sentences I can only assume that you were trying to say thanks for sharing my fucken dick.....is that right? Although, I'm not sure how you would have come up with that because that wasn't me in your bed last night, that was the neighbor's dog.

[buchoogdelight]

how about i shove that fucken piece of guitar up your fucken homo faggot ass? stop posting your fucken gay music and stop showing your ugly fucken face, you pussy.

[buchoogdelight]

btw you sound like a fucken homo with your short faggot tongue

[titoortegarocks]

I'm intrigued as to how you come up with so many original insults. I'm also surprised that you were able to pick up on my speech impediment, because it's not very obvious. It is apparent that you are of a higher intelligence than I, so I should probably back down from this "conversation."  What's interesting, though, is that no matter how much disdain you seem to have for my video, you repeatedly contribute to the amount of views, almost every day. Hmm.....how odd.

Oh well, I guess you win.

[djlpenguin]

@titoortegarocks you have a speech impediment? lol i couldnt hear

[twinkys12]

this is so annoying! you cannot make it all slow and hip hopy!! god damn man!

[titoortegarocks]

First of all, this is in no way "hip hop," but I'll go ahead and let you believe that the two days you spent coming up with an insult was worth it. The overall purpose for the way I do this song is to give it a less syncopated feel, thus separating it from the normal, mundane versions that seem to pop up every other week. But I guess you'd rather sit down and play the more popular, simple, melody only Buckhead version.

Thanks for watching!

[ragglefraggle09]

actually Buckethead's version is very good , its simple but has the melody as well as the simultaneous soothing harmony, mixed with some octaves and etc cause he's buckethead

buckethead trails off alot from hip-hop, rap, or pop. but your version is actually more in the world of pop =P

[titoortegarocks]

If you'd pay more attention to statements made before you leave comments, I'd be less enticed to point out the problems with what you said.

1. I never said my version wasn't pop.

2. I never said Buckethead's version WAS hip hop, or rap.

3. Maybe you should have said in the "GENRE" of pop, or "on the pop side."

4. I've seen a very large amount of Buckethead's version and, for most of it, he plays only the melody. But, I do appreciate the attempt to defend him.

Thanks for watching!

[ragglefraggle09]

Well, you have to realize a lot of people get pop confused with hip-hop.

And I implied you did, since you talked about Buckethead very negatively with that person, that guy complained about hiphop and you said he can only appreciate Buckethead's cover

Implying is important.

The genre? what?

Even if its the melody it sounds great, since he actually uses a few techniques on it. Your version's good, don't get me wrong, I get you would probably feel obliged to defend it from any other version

[lizbeth56l]

omgsh that was soo niceee. :D

[efindrel]

this guy is awesome! better version than maroon 5's! this is wicked!

[thatguys]

niice, enjoyable

[LoisNerdyLane01]

wow. I was looking for a tutorial on these songs. I cam across this during my search and I HAD to watch the whole thing. You blew me away. seriously tito ortega does rock.=]

[JustunLivae]

nice job Tito!

[GuitarScream94]

at first i didn't expect 2 b blown away...... wasn't i wrong :P

[basketballchic6777]

omg im doing this play for drama and this is awesome

[branflakes0909]

i love it :D thank u so much! it made my day sir tito :)

[horuscurcino]

you seems like Felipe Massa's F1 player! lol

great sound!

[mitramay]

right man. sounds beautiful

[bobross95]

Wow!! The word superb springs to mind!!

[Madnezz344]

onchore

[kennedbj]

Sounds like you need new strings or maybe a better quality mic or something, but very nice arrangement- Are you playing a Takamine?

[titoortegarocks]

Yes, I am playing a takamine. It's more like, better camera, as I'm just using a digital photo camera. Thanks!

[2nerdfighters]

Awesome! I'm favoriting and suscribing! Good work

[kapz100]

i reckon it will sound mean playing that in bossanova style good playing tito

[TheRogueKnight7]

...sorry about part of the last comment, i didn't notice that you said it was combined in the beginning.

[TheRogueKnight7]

...just incredible. It kinda took me off guard and made me a little sad that you blended pure imagination with the candy man song, but it still turned out amazing.

[SkeeterMcgeerm]

I agree, it would be awsome if you could do pure imagine straight and leave off candy man.

awsome performance though

[nbstoudt]

Dude... if you're in nj (or anywhere close) please contact me and teach me how to play that. I can learn I'm good enough. Will pay. Faak that's hot/

[zinguy123]

awesome!

[ameliabettin]

u r good

[chiwowwow3]

You sound like Jason Castro.

[titoortegarocks]

thanks....?

[Seventhguitar]

very very good!!|!
