"Iris" by the Goo Goo Dolls Preview Lesson

[superfunkmonker]

FAKE!!!!

[TheRowlhion]

Wrong the man (Rzeznik) has his guitar tuned D open except for the 6th string is B tuned.

[gunfucker45]

gago!



[jesusloveqoo]

這是尛.....



[23potyaj]

gago!

[Tr1nityrecords]

what version of Iris is this? is this a live performance? 

[PICKER132]

wats the tuning?

[xenophob1a]

BDDDDD be careful when tuning your B string up to a D it will break if you go to fast

[dstef87]

It's totally worth the 3 bucks. I've always wanted to learn how to play this song and now I finally can. The instructor is great!

[ceddy1968]

These guys do have a great website. I've purchased a few of their songs, they go over the chords and strumming well, with good camera angles also. They just need to keep adding more songs though.

[elbanti]

I have purchased a few tutorials from these guys, and seriously, for a few dollars each song, you can't get a more accurate, high quality, fun learning experience! Everyone wants everything for free these days, but the fact is, you get what you pay for. And MOST FREE tutorials, Tabs etc on the internet are just plain WRONG. If you truly want to learn to play a song the way it's actually played, invest a few bucks in a quality expert lesson. iVideosongs ROX.

[hendrixgroupie23]

@elbanti i bet they payed you to say that xD

[iVideosongs]

@hendrixgroupie23 No, we didn't. We appreciate the compliments.

[hendrixgroupie23]

@iVideosongs I know, im just messing aroung(: i love the tone of the guitar by the way, what kind is it?

[iVideosongs]

@hendrixgroupie23 It is a Taylor. I personally have two Taylors and they are awesome.

[komani86]

@demonedstring1 You all expect free tutorials, this is a DEMO of the tutorial, costs like 2 dollar to buy it, but its how it SHOULD be played.. sigh

[sam199166]

@alre08 its reality son

[calipo311]

OMFG! Your voice is amazing!

[88cfoster]

Hooker69, this song should not be played in standard. It really kills it. BDDDDD is what makes the song so unique. It's not that hard to use alternate tunings. Get an automatic tuner and it just takes a few seconds. Personally, I like to tune to DDDDDD for Iris. I found a way to play it like that and sounds the same.

[KooolKaL]

@88cfoster actually it's ACCCCC (all sharps) or BDDDDD (all flats) but it's the same thing, just saying you forgot the flats. Plus the E string lower makes it sound better, tuning it higher isn't as good...

[hooker69r]

i find it better to play standed, INTRO: Bm-Bsus2-G VERSE: D-Em-G  Bm-A-G

CHORUS:Bm-A-G

[OmgItzaBunny]

hes not even hitting the strings at 0:09 - 0:16

[zae3434]

@OmgItzaBunny you can clearly see the normal D string as well as the original high E and B string vibrating when hes playing in this part so i would say that he is hitting the strings

[josh4380]

@OmgItzaBunny yes he is, you can clearly see the strings vibrating...

[sickles347]

@DoggieStreet a guitar is meant to be played however the holder wishes it to be played.

[DoggieStreet]

yeah, forget it, i was pissed off that day when i wrote a comment :D

[sickles347]

@mastervicho its a preview of a lesson, learn to read.

[susan632]

opps I meant,

THE NORMAL D STRING STAYS THE SAME.

SORRY.

[susan632]

If you have a CHROMATIC TUNER { tunes to other notes than just standard E,A,D,G,B,E}. You can tune your guitar to B,D,D,D,D,D. So first the,

LOW E String tune it DOWN to B.

A String tune it Down to D.

D String tune it Down to D.

G String tune it Down to D.

B String tune it Up to D.

HIGH E String tune it Down to D.

If you can't do it your probably using a standard tuner which did not work for me, so I got the CHROMATIC tuner.

[Daver869]

John actually plays this with only FIVE strings.....so what you can do is...switch the B string with an E string. Search for their performance of IRIS on Abbey Road, you'll see what I mean

[SuperBrickDude]

its tuned to BDDDDD why is everyone giving this a low rating

[qtbeauty95]

its DBGDAD

[clutch97531]

@qtbeauty95 It's BDDDDD stupid

[brosketty01]

[sidmartucio]

Drop D

[Jayjay7856]

[djdes90]

BDDDDD

[Bloomingangel13]

[jenghosh1]

[jenghosh1]

i laughed alot at your comment haha

[minihenry654]

Dude you get tht high note comfortably, not like johnny in his prime, but he cant sing it no more :/

[scafandro]

hey wtf is this shit? nobody cannot understand nothing!

[LeftyAcoustic]

like your sentence structure and grammar?

[scafandro]

....maybe cause i'm not english..?? genius!

[LeftyAcoustic]

then try not to comment in english

[AcapellaAlec]

It's 3 dollars for this lesson. Depending how much you like this song, and if you want to play it as close to the original, the three dollars isn't that big of a deal.

[HardRokMiner]

There is a much much much easier way to play this. Standard tuning. Capo on the 1st fret. Chords are G, Dsus, C9, G. Try it.

[andrasiboti]

Dsus4 or Dsus2? ,HardRokMiner

[89FrAnCiS89]

-.- good tutorial -.-

[jammasterjoey04]

goo goo dolls plays it different

[Katherineo0oEyeliner]

Are you people stupid or something?

Quote "Iris by the Goo Goo Dolls PREVEIEW lesson"

[Animeguy993]

I second that! ;P (but serioudly, i agree)

[jocksoild4]

[ronaldinhofan9]

well, its 37 minutes long. I'd want money to for that.

[sebendebi]

why selling it??

[DJSimox86]

[victoreskerdo]

you are that kind of people that do everything to get our money!!!

I won't never NEVER buy this shit!!!

[Dj5hin0]

[lidor1980]

@Dj5hin0

I think they just want you to buy them CD...

Probably there is a full tutorial.

[Skilles01]

tuning ( B D D D D D low to high)

[alexishershberger]

son of a bitch.

i wont the whole damn thing

[nijwmzen29]

the full-length version of this tutorial would be very good i think. it's a shame that it's only a preview. this sucks coz youtube is all about sharing wonderful things together, especially music.

[B0BonCRACK]

hey you people that are saying this lesson sucks......if you noticed, it sais 'preview'!!!!! retards

[LegendVl]

this video simply sucks!!!

[nijwmzen29]

selling guitar lessons. that sucks. even movies are free. dude, free downloads helps advertising.

[zorozing]

Movies are free? What planet are you from dude?

[mikecee907]

The planet of Earth where you can get any movie for free lol. Doesn't mean it's legal.

[zorozing]

Hey Mike - your comment is illogical. The comment I responded to was appaled that someone would charge for a guitar lesson and stated "even movies are free." By your logic everything is free because everything can be stolen.

[mikecee907]

Don't take it so seriously. Illogical? It's perfectly logical. Just not legal.

[zorozing]

ok.  Fair enough.

[xxxkcxxxx]

then stop complaining and buy the full video then.

[airborne360]

Alternatively buy the "Dizzy Up The Girl" tab book and also learn how to play the other songs on the album, woo.

[Shawkat88]

damn can't they put the whole video for free !!!

[awsome13amy]

i know!!! it so annoying

[jarooFLtutor]

[satanickim]

Yah, now I can play the whole song :rolleyes:
