Hey man, that's better than I can do and I've been trying to play this riff for many many years. But that's the nature of youtube. You can find a 12-year-old girl for receiving praise for fumbling her way through a fall out boy song and find a decent guitarist play a song by one of the greatest bands and get shit. Kudos pal.
This is pants -The beginging is wrong matey! It does'nt repeat the same - the second part on the riff is different. Also you need less reverb and use a chorus pedal. Get it fffing right if you're gonna big yourself up and make a complete cock of yourself!
omg this is the worst video on how to play spirit of radio i have ever seen my dead grandmother could play it better than you, and she could play it right learn to play befor you teach
No offence friend, but why did you post a video lesson since you 're not playing the riff right? I 'd double-doublecheck before doing something like that
The guys below said it right. Most tabs are wrong, you should train your ears and write down the music yourself. Use amazing slowdowner and study theory&harmony!And by the way, this song is not truly easy! Hope I helped
Upstroke on the E(F#) and pull off(E), up on the B(D), down (E) and then up on the E(A) and pull off (E), up on the B(D), and then down on the (E) and repeat. Switching the A for a (G# F# E) triplet. My guitar teacher and I spent like a month or more on that. It may not be perfectly right, but it works.
I like tapping it

You're not playing it right mate. There is no open B string in that riff. Also you might want to turn the reverb down a bit.

i actually learned to play this song off a video i thought it sounded right do you by any chance have the right tabs then?

That's not right. Buy Amazing Slowdowner software and give it a listen, or watch SEVEERTREBOR's or CLASSICROCKRIFFS' versions.

yeah, this song uses a reverse picking style and alternates the E, not the E and B.

I'm familiar with economy picking and alternate picking. Please explain.

Note: The title is "The Spirit of Radio", not Spirit of the Radio. This upsets us RUSH fans greatly.
