Gareth Pearson - Beauty of Discipline - Solo Acoustic Guitar

[SirVaughnElric]

All these guitarist are great and wonderful and OMG I just died listening to this.

But I still cannot stand the scratchy sound when they slide their hands up and down.

Nails on a chalk board IMO >_<

[ComicalMike]

Thats a beautiful guitar anyone know the make?

[LoonyBird27]

@ComicalMike I'm pretty sure thats a Maton EBG808 Artist.

[Jimpeeterske]

190000 views are from me

[Outie1179]

@Jimpeeterske That's impossible because I'm 100% sure I've watched this video atleast 300,000,000 times so far.

[CzDavid42]

@Outie1179 That's about two and a half millenia

[skatinfoo16]

@Jimpeeterske i think ive got the other 5500 haha :D

[oODallyOo]

I always find it funny how when I met him he told me this songs originally written about girls deleting you off of facebook :L

[bangermccrusher]

I dont think I´d look ridiculous if I stand up and clap infront of the computer

[SeknankeS]

I friggin LOVE the faces he makes while he's playing

[Klurpz]

Alternate name for this song could be Disciple of Beauty. He has somehow managed do define beauty into the form of a song!

[Nebulafantasy]

I've finally found what I've been looking for in my life.

[croft1224]

Im proud to say Ive done sound and lighting for this guy. Was an honour really...

[darksideofthemoo]

Seeing Gareth as he supports Tommy Emmanuel in a couple of weeks. SO excited!

[chrismcrowe]

@darksideofthemoo Corn Exchange Cambridge? Was totally awesome last night, they both rocked it duet-style at the end! :D

[magiciandeef]

this my friends, is why music is called the bridge between heaven and earth

[Benjiinsanity]

@magiciandeef I just threw up.

[JackDawsonRMS]

@magiciandeef DONT FORGET ABOUT THE OTHER BRIDGE :)

[Thr0ne0fR0ses]

@magiciandeef it is?

[Thr0ne0fR0ses]

@magiciandeef it is?

[magiciandeef]

please, does anybody want to give me the tabs so I can play this for my girlfriend? I dont have a paypal account or a mastercard to make one, otherwise I would aready have bought it! I feel like a beggar haha, but I do not know how to get the TABs otherwise...

[Jimpeeterske]

i bought the tabs but it's so fcking hard xD

[smpxix]

The guitar is his servant.

[sommervilleTRS117]

Anybody know the tuning ?

[AustinAlexanderAW]

@sommervilleTRS117 standard, I believe

[dobbinish]

@sommervilleTRS117 standard



[DavidPileGuitar]

kind of looks like the joker.....

[TheBobnalyd]

Ive gotta stop praising Gareth cos I dont want to spread a net before his feet but its difficult to do that when you hear him play. This moved me to tears. The beauty of Gareth Pearson !

[xerosperex]

Excellent, Thank you..

Gracias, Continua Asi,

I love your Music..

[silverspringandgold]

Rally very beatiful!!! It sounds great!!!******* Roses

[midnightluv231]

haha i think ur my teachers cousin

[kaputasri]

This is how solo acoustic guitar compositions should be nice, simple and clean. No fancy showoff tricks which kill the music. Man i hate that two handed tapping that some acoustic guitarist use. 90 percent of the time it is misused and music is horrible. It's more like a technical exercise for guitar rather than a song. This guy is pure genius loved it.

[intheflesh316]

@kaputasri pretty broad statement to say that's it's all misused. i mean stuff like Drifting by Andy Mckee seems like a song for show (nothing against Andy Mckee, love his playing too). But there's plenty of tapping song's that i think are just as beautiful as this piece. Some of Andy Dufour's and Justin King's pieces.

[BubblegunNoGum]

@intheflesh316 hahah. Antoine Dufour *

[intheflesh316]

@BubblegunNoGum what...?

[BubblegunNoGum]

@intheflesh316 I thought it was funny that you mixed up andy mckee and antoine dufour's names in your comment.

[LedZepplin3853]

without a doubt my favourite song by this man

[McBoothie94]

The tuning is standard EADGBE

[Clevergamer]

This song is beautiful, period

[sommervilleTRS117]

whats is the tuneing ?

[wagnertful]

W.O.N.D.E.R.F.U.L!

[Jimpeeterske]

just bought the tabs !! but damn this will take me some time to learn it it's difficult :P 

[McBoothie94]

this is in standard right?

[salomon9595]

@McBoothie94 It is! I believe most of his tunes are in standard :)

[Anim8edDeath]

I must thank you mr. Pearson, as by learning this song and playing it to this girl got me laid TWICE!

[sommervilleTRS117]

@Anim8edDeath what is the tuning ???

[amsolo92]

12 people just didnt like the song...

[IBANEZBB103]

Anyone else think he looks like scarecrow from Batman Begins... or....?

[Earthpeace420]

@IBANEZBB103 Such an amazing song, and all u have a comment about is about the way he looks? damn...

[IBANEZBB103]

@Earthpeace420 hey ass... did I ever say he wasnt talented? I happen to like, no love this piece of music... I was just saying he resembled someone... Stop trying to bust chops. damn...

[grafx5]

@Earthpeace420 Yes, let's all say the same thing that has been already said. His song is so beautiful! It's... uh... nice, and good, and it's art, and inspiring, and I give up playing guitar, and it's inspired me to play guitar again, and x number of people did something, and I just came.

Happy?

[DMDeathGr0wl]

@grafx5 This gets a Thumb up

[Benjiinsanity]

@grafx5 Nah it just good music and good playing. Simple.

[Earthpeace420]

Really amazing, Thx for sharing this. its a piece of art

[powellok1]

I want tabs so bad

[jashwood007]

tuning?

[philosophia317]

you are amazing, you are an inspiration to me and many others

[DonnyKoe]

I love the emotion he puts in that part at 0:48

Shows he's really feeling the song. Amazing, telling a tale in sounds.

[botchedup76]

Sup brother...I'm a fan and a learner of your style....love this piece and the name..It's this simple, The "Beauty of Discipline" is the RESULT of discipline. The discipline necessary to pull this shit off effortlessly. Wow...you inspire me son....

[CelestialLarrivee]

too good

[irjustintaylor]

This is so beautiful

[DuhEnlightenedOne]

13 people don't have any discipline

[stevierayvaughn58]

another beautiful masterpiece. This stuff is so beautiful, you are truely an amazing musician

[sm6jesse]

so mellow and pure. beautiful sir. keep it coming.

[mspen3]

most underrated acoustic guitar player i've ever heard.

[ddenniszzz]

[elliesmurfy]

Omg love love love!!!! amazing. the other videos are too. so good could listen all day :)

[MattSt0n3]

[ktheclown]

such a sweet tune, love it.. especially the harmonic at 0:13, don´t know if it meant to be there coz its the only time he plays it but it sounds pretty cool.. stay tuned

[shrnthegroove]

half through the second page of thriller tab... I recommend it.. its so fun

[lifelongfan07]

Gareth was awesome! Saw him @ the SAH in SF. Kinda reminds me of Tommy Emmanuel.



[lifelongfan07]

Gareth was awesome! Saw him @ the SAH in SF.

[CotymoG]

that is one beautiful sounding guitar

[shrnthegroove]

@CotymoG you can get one 1400... it's a Gareth Pearson signature

[weareburkeslounge]

the most pleasure your ears will ever hear in this life time :D

[shrnthegroove]

he's coming to va. WOO HOO

[Jimpeeterske]

how can 12 people dislike this , what a bunch of Animals

[SwaffyX]

It should be called,

"Dancing With My Guitar"

[elvarge0]

Why is his guitar not solid gold??? he would be able 2 play it just as awesome!!!!

[Isaacbean]

Went to the Candyrat Guitar Night last night. This guy was fucking CRAZY. Like seizure -crazy xD

[pippismo]

@Isaacbean LOLLL, saw him last night too, the most fun to watch, talented and crazy of all!!!! did he do the moon walk while playing thriller? class... hahaha

[Isaacbean]

@pippismo Yeah! And for like 3 minutes his crotch was literally 4 inches away from my face xD

[redding666]

@Isaacbean Ahaha, you witnessed the thriller dance didn't you.

[stobbo123]

12 people are criminals and have no respect for the beauty of discipline.

[MichaelAnthonyTVch1]

fucking amazing



[HerbalNinja024]

reminds me of Stephen bennett

[gamefunatic2]

The best part of all of Gareths videos aren't the music. If you look, in everyone of the videos he is trying to contain his smile. When playing music makes you this happy it sounds even better :)

[TheSound0fYourVoice]

It's so beautiful!!

it makes me speechless

[katiea1992]

Look and my cover of nice dream and subscribe please x

[Wiredrawn173]

guitar model?

[AcousticMax]

@Wiredrawn173 Maton 808

[TheJonesyable]

My favourite part was from 0:00 to 4:24...

[Clevergamer]

any idea why he name he song "beauty of discipline"? Discipline is crucial to acheive success in any field. I suppose he realised that himself.

[IOWNA11]

what are the odds you can sing for us next time?

[loggnogg]

legit! can't wait to see him play in like 20 years

[milkyBK370]

Anyone else think this is a bit of a n Alex DeGrassi rip off? When I mentioned it to Gareth he said he'd never heard of DeGrassi.

[BlackThunder885]

@milkyBK370 it's a possibility that he hasn't heard of the guy. There's been quiet a few people I have never heard of until I started to listen to this channel.

[MetalPersian]

he looks like someone from my school. only without the beard and the greatful dead t-shirt/

[AmeliePradel]

Anyone know the tuning? Just like how it sounds

[salomon9595]

@AmeliePradel I believe it's standard :) But just with a capo on the second fret.

[LeoUPereira1987]

amazing song!!!!!

[wrong1man]

how can you make your guitar say such things? :)

[VotaleX]

What kind of guitar does he use?

[McBoothie94]

when i first started playing guitar i played near 6 hours a day just playing whatever i wanted and writing down simple melodies, recently ive been falling off the wagon as far as practicing and playing as much. listening to this, ill gladly go back to that old 'routine' play some mckee and learn some of this guys stuff god bless you man

[Jimpeeterske]

Damn i love this song 1000 views are mine :P

[gunsnrosescovers]

Nice Guitar

[babs4TLove]

[swichfoot333]

[99Inflamunas]

[Zman200111]

[ForcedAgenda]

Very nice stuff. Very talented. Lots of skill n' soul.

[orrart]

I'm spamming the like button in tempo along with Gareths awesome wonderpiece.

But its hard cuz he is doing some amazing tempo shifts in this song =)

[ILikeToColourRed]

@orrart havent noticed any?



[PenguinarityProd]

@ILikeToColourRed

Umm.... when he slides his hand all the way across the fretboard? he does it like every 2 seconds. I think its pretty friggin awesome.. :3

[PenguinarityProd]

@ILikeToColourRed

Umm.... when he slides his hand all the way across the fretboard? he does it like every 2 seconds. I think its pretty friggin awesome.. :3

[ILikeToColourRed]

@PenguinarityProd still same tempo :S



[ILikeToColourRed]

@PenguinarityProd still same tempo :S

unless you mean the big change at the very end?

[RobertMStFleur]

It's more than beautiful, very inspirational sound.

[stievelien]

[snookseaglin]

this is really really good, nice job!

[joohj1187]

absolutely breathtaking. this song really is beauty, through discipline

[Clevergamer]

@joohj1187 I think it should be renamed: Beauty through discipline

[dankhanks]

i love you no homo.

[Clevergamer]

Beautiful....

[guitarpromoter]

superb

[salm37]

Sometimes you have to tip your hat to God's gifting ...and you got it Gareth use it well my friend!...God Bless

[VoodooJanis]

Gareth Pearson is meaned by Great Person!

[Rubendkoning]

Gareth, I watched your performance in Holland last sunday, it was awesome. Your the best entertainer I've ever seen and not a single person in the world can play your songs like you, it was epic.. I'm very sure that in a few years you're the best player of the world.

[Bartgitaar01]

Still love this piece the most Gareth ! I think its one of your best compositions....delicate !!!

Hugs

Bart

[McBoothie94]

if i could just have the tuning id be happy to learn it by ear and watching the videos

[guitarthing]

@McBoothie94 Standard

[Binniam]

9 people have alien fingers!

[arishegg]

it must really suck having to write tabs out for your music. I mean, you spend about a month at least perfecting a piece of music that comes from your soul and all the sudden everyone and their moms has a cover of it stealing glory from you. That's just one side, I mean it would be sick awesome seeing a bunch of cover videos to a song you wrote but still, you have to go through all that work so some chump can impress his friends at school. Annoying >.>

[phucher]

@arishegg

any "chump" can spend a few bucks on some tabs off the internet... but the real musicians learn by ear ;)

[McBoothie94]

@phucher those chumps dont have the same amount of ear training no doubt :)

[McBoothie94]

*insert generic comment about the dislike bar here*

[Phillysil41]

9 people have no heart or feelings because this song is absolutely amazing



[Phillysil41]

9 people have no heart or feelings because this song is absolutely amazing

[matt23540]

Amazing. I wish I could be half as good as this

[acarizza]

La expresividad que se ve en su rostro la transmite en el guitarra

[JackGuitarGuy]

Casio Watch, Had one of those years agoo :L

[tattoosue]

You are an amazing talent, thanks for sharing!

[RagdeAvez]

3:48 I LOVE THE WAY HE COMES BACK

[viperpro]

This song is amazing man, but paying $15 for the tablature is just ridiculous

[TriviumFan15]

The tablature on candyrat for this song is very wrong.

[mogx290]

@TriviumFan15

I have the tab, and its dead right so I don't know what you are getting at here!

What part do you think is wrong,

[douzestrings]

@mogx290 I ahve the tab set for this and the others and they are they are dead on.

[TriviumFan15]

@mogx290 I just might not be reading it right, but measurs 6, 8, 10, 17, so on so on. I can name a lot more if I really wanna go through the entire song.

[douzestrings]

@TriviumFan15 try tuning your guitar into standard tuning.

[TriviumFan15]

@douzestrings Thanks but you dont have to sound arrogant. Candryrat artists usually use alternate tunings and my guitar hasnt been in standard for quite a while now. So sorry bout not makin the assumption man, i'm just wanting to be clarified.

[douzestrings]

@TriviumFan15 Didn't want to sound arrogant. It was just a comment. He is probably the only Candyrat guy who doesn't use alternative tunings and that is whats makes his playing so unique IMHO. To get the sounds he does, but in Standard,

[Gingerlord01]

wow, really beautiful work man :D

[wall1506]

Amazing...!!! Good work

[manwithvette]

absolutely awesome buddy,do u have any cd's available? thanks

[musicianspassion1]

amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[IM1StealthPilot]

Great song. It's a reminder that if you keep persevering on your guitar through the good and the bad, you will one day sound like this. I hope that day comes for me. : )

[numberoUNOmAn]

@IM1StealthPilot Man i remember the first time i got my guitar. I was mad. Now I'm pretty good bahaha.

[IM1StealthPilot]

@numberoUNOmAn Yep, I bought my guitar about a year ago now. And only now this last month have I started actually practicing at least 20 minutes a day. After you force yourself to keep it a habit you start enjoying it.

[AintNoCrime]

@IM1StealthPilot It'll take longer than a year to become good, but you've chosen the right way: practice and practice until your fingers start to hurt. Try longer and longer sessions and you'll eventually really start to enjoy it.

Good luck!

[Gingerlord01]

@IM1StealthPilot or you can pick it when u feel like it, ive been playing mine for about 6 hours today XD

[IM1StealthPilot]

@Gingerlord01 Wow that's committed. I tend to run approximately an hour's worth of actual "sitting down and focused", which is really hard for me to do. I also take advantage of times like when I'm watching TV.
