[nolanchim12]

[mrderp1000]

[Madkinglord1]

You sir deserve my LIKE!. JUST BRILLIANT. :)

[MegaSpitfire14]

You're amazing man. If you could sing, you would be sooooooooo killer.

[megahurt12345]

@MegaSpitfire14 .....the song doesn't have lyrics so....ummm.....what?

[MegaSpitfire14]

@megahurt12345 I didn't say anything about lyrics lol, I just said that if you could sing you'd be sick.

[ilee31]

inspiration!

[arsnl206]

this is reallly gooooooooooddd... one thing though is that it sounds a little to high i know im not a guitar expert but it should be lower otherwise this is good man

[kaser226]

:)

[Symbton]

What key is this in?

[mlitrus]

@Symbton first chord is B-7 for the way he's playing it. actual key is A^7

[Symbton]

@mlitrus

Thanks man =)

[TaiwanResident]

could you do a tutorial on this?

[thecooltactition81]

Nice!!! I swear, I get the same feeling listening to your (non-beat) version of this song that I do when listening to debussey's Claire de lune ... One becomes transported by the beauty of this music

[Exodiaasanezzz]

Make a tut! This is the bessst!

Or can I please ask where you got the tabs for it?

Ill try to learn how to read tabs :)

I have no idea how. Im still a beginner even tho I had my guitar for quite some time because I had no motivation.

But after watching samurai champloo, I've searched who composed their music and found out about nujabes. I was too late tho.

RIP Nujabes.

He left us wonderful music.

[drugabuser1]

I think out of all of the covers i heard of this song, yours is the smoothest. Thanks :3

[SillyOne20]

i can listen to you play for hours...

[sjrsport0817]

ovation guitar?

[africanskater1]

This video is what inspired to learn to play like most people here. It took me a while but i finally got it. I have a tutorial on my channel for anyone who wants to learn this amazing song.

[ookthomas]

the original song is called "The lamp is low" by Laurindo Almeida. Most tabs I found on the internet don't sound too well when played. Rdunquest does the best job so far, considering Laurindo Almeida probably played it on a baritone guitar.

[SeitxiS]

this video inspired me to start playing guitar!

[209skateboards]

18 people can't play this, or even a guitar.

[korinstower202]

the tabs from the link arn't right

[JohnnyBoy2695]

why is it that Asians do everything so well first it's Christopher Walken impressions now this. XD RIP NUJABES.

[bigino1990]

Nice Cover. I have the Adobe PDF of Aruarian Dance. Send me a message if you guys want I'll e-mail it to you.

[Twelveinchwide012]

you should tune down ur guitar to ( A#, F#, B, E, G#, A#), it would sound aaaa looooooooot better

[Manicz]

Why did he have to leave us when we needed his music now more than ever?

[KrazyBeeBogey]

Thats a fresh LRG jacket son



[killharmonic]

best

[fatalcolumn123]

18 people are mainstream media fans who do not know real music, even if they heard it.

[apekatteriskogen]

Which tab is this?

[ARKELPZ]

esta chingona

[IzzyBelly]

still my favorite of all the covers.

[GiftedKiller1]

You sir, are a demigod!

[landfill2]

without the drums in the background it reminds me of Zelda

[BLESSEDiAM8]

beautiful

[funkayfreshmix22]

It's been over 4 years man, can you please make new covers?

[jehutys5]

Dang this is nice. *sigh* curse my skinny fingers, I want to learn this song so bad but I cant seem to get my index finger to solidly cover fret 7 on all the strings. =(

[africanskater1]

@jehutys5

yea it took me a while to finally barre the whole 7th fret, just practice, and practice man, the skinnier fingers the more flexibility :) good luck

[CasualBrutality]

You make my heart flutter =]

[Ender080192]

Man... I bought my guitar about one year ago, but I had no motivation to play it. I don't know, I've had a lack of perseverance or something.

But you and those tabs made me take my guitar and try over and over until I succeded to play this track. From then I play guitar so much and learn more and more.

Nujabes is my favourite artist, when I heard of his death it was like loosing a friend. I've tried to find tabs to his tracks, but I failed... and then I found your vid!

Thanks man.

[FROZO64]

@Ender080192 Thats whats up man. Keep doing ya thing ;)

[DhDo74]

Badass man! 

[Wtsmyageagain]

Look dude, I know you're still alive and I hope you're still playing guitar. It'd be awesome to see what you've been able to accomplish in 3 years.

[jeulian549]

damn. this is hard to play lefty on a righty guitar.

[vitalremainss]

thumbs up if you started drumming on ur table at :20

[190105mike]

There probebly refering to mine it buzzes like leap for some reason I think it's the web cam on the fritz or my bass is to over powering, any way I'm glad one of ours worked

[psiquetrance]

man thank you for having a decent audio on this song, allmost every body have a bad audio, they don't play bad... but one can almost hear their mothers saying JUANITO CHIGADO QUE VALLAS POR LAS TORTILLAS CABRON..... nice and smooth played I totally enjoyed this piece.

[sunrise600]

you just changed my life with this cover. one my all time favourite songs.

[FightAGiraffe]

So did nujabes come up with the guitar on his own???

[kakashid0]

omg damn goooodddd

[SaintPete727]

Well.....It looks like I'm gonna start learning to play guitar now. Lol

[gerb234]

I'm having so much trouble with the first chord!!!

[bboyever]

Thanks for the tabs man. I've been trying to play this, and it's kinda hard. Lol

[quake1033]

this is beautiful bro

[andyboy667]

You just might get all the pussy in the world with that one song :P

[AristaBomb]

@andyboy667 sadly girls are too stupid to realize what true music is, so i gotta vote no

[andyboy667]

@AristaBomb jealous you can't play like that?

[AristaBomb]

@andyboy667 you have no fucking idea what i said, do you? Don't comment on somebody's comment if you cant fucking read. IT WAS A COMPLIMENT!!! FFS READ DUMB KID READ.

[andyboy667]

@AristaBomb lol it sounded more like an insult sorry bout that. you don't have get all anal about it shiit look at all those caps ;)

[AristaBomb]

@andyboy667 Oh now don't you feel shitty lol. Oh you shouldn't hijack vocabulary from other people i thnk you should give credit for people you steal phrases from unless you wanna get busted for Plagiarism. Just sayin. If you're gonna "accidentally" insult me make sure your little sister isn't sitting on your lap giving you a hard on and making you feel like a tough guy.

[andyboy667]

@AristaBomb lmao you have issues :l

[AristaBomb]

@andyboy667 If that's what you wanna believe then go ahead my friend and you should really learn to read instead of insulting me randomly. Even if i did insult the video, it's non of your business, so obviously you like to start shit so i'll just leave it at that, cause i know you'll keep coming back for drama. <---does that sound like i have issues? No i just figured out what you do on youtube. Have a good day.

[andyboy667]

@AristaBomb can you stop reply to me please, I'm trying to live life here :S

[AristaBomb]

@andyboy667 what life mis comphending compliments on youtube??? Lmfao

[andyboy667]

[heisokay]

@lordofd95824

Acoustic, metal strings

[randomaccount39]

@lordofd95824 i think its an ovation. is it?

[d3thomega]

Best cover EVAR :D

[JohnnyBoy2695]

This song reminds me of the time I was sitting out on the beach in Naples, Florida watching the sun set it was beautiful and so is this song. Rest in peace Nujabes, we all miss you.One love

[akoMEGhan]

for this song (which I LOVE);;

I think it would sound so much butter with Nylon strings instead of metal/steel to add more of the calming sound it has.

[joeneedstosleep]

Very, very nicely done. The man would have enjoyed it,

[alicepollok]

I love this song and WOW you've really nailed it

Thank you for uploading this ^.^

[Jyphlosion]

do you know the actually tuning for it?

[DarkNatasX]

@Jyphlosion #C. lol

[VersaillesBboys]

So cool I used this song for my breakdance video hahaha sooo coool

[jasonpunza]

best guitar cover.

[lordofd95824]

What kind of guitar u using bro?

[DarkNatasX]

Dude. All the tabs at Ultimate Guitar are WRONG. Wtf!?

[SakaryaliSazci]

@DarkNatasX i agree

[DarkNatasX]

@SakaryaliSazci I found out, they are played in #C Tuning. Which they don't tell you... Im to lazy to find out what that is, and how to do it though.

[Jyphlosion]

@DarkNatasX thanx. if been looking for the tuning

[PoppinJazzY]

@DarkNatasX

i guess ou just have to improvise...

i checked too.. they ar wrong..

you just have to learn the whole song

by yourself i guess... that's what im doing....

[Jyphlosion]

@PoppinJazzY i tuned it to C# and the tabs are pretty accurate. =P

[LOCNL0ADED]

@PoppinJazzY once you learn it....mind helpin the rest of us out?? =]

[PoppinJazzY]

@LOCNL0ADED

i alrdy learned it...

it's not really that hard to play...

i used the tabs (even though they

weren't really accurate) and this

vid to learn it...

if i learned it im sure you can too...

[LOCNL0ADED]

@PoppinJazzY how do you read tabs

[AdmiralPwnflake]

Out of all the videos people have posted of this song, yours is the only one that is more than a string of pitches. You have rhythm, a steady tempo, and everything is in its the right place. This truly is music, and you are an inspiration. Thank you

[Perrythazn]

hey ur the 4lments guy right?

i saw the comments for that tab on ultimate-guitar.

you got a lot of bad comments on that one.

i think that tab is good though. as long as it sounds good. and it does.

was it hard to make this tab?

[jlmknight]

very nicely done :)

[CHOMBE123]

beautifull... RIP Nujabes

[Damado93]

out of all of the acoustics .. this is my favorite.. sounds like it!

[FlippinPin0y]

Yes! thanks to you I can play it now!

[atticusbryan]

Beautiful dude,  keep the good music alive for nujabes. RIP

[NiintendoWii]

I am playing for a while now and I am not even close to being able to play songs like that.

I really need to practice more...

[Njzfinest]

RIP

[KabukiiRunaway]

this song brings back memories from the good old days, i wish i could play it no good tutorials and i cant read musiq

[Dosu3000]

[chewycrayola]

I need to learn this so I can play it on a beach :D so goddamn relaxing!

[Upright777]

This makes me think of a sweet summer breeze. Very nice man.

[L8DSheena]

very nice interpretation, well done :-)

[TheGOLDENGODZILLA]

Domoarigato gozaimimas anata wa yoku sensei desuyo watshino nihon eedeska

[superdarkmario2]

why do you talk in fucked up japanese

itai nande kona koto suru

[TheGOLDENGODZILLA]

Ha ha haaaaaa!!! Yo man calm down it's just a comment and yeah my japanese kinda is bad but who cares what did you say?

[superdarkmario2]

why would you do something like that xD

and yoku does mean good but you only use it when someone does something good yoku yatta 0_o I've watched too much anime

[TheGOLDENGODZILLA]

Dang man learned your nihongo from anime nice!!!!!! Imagine how yoku you'll be if you were in a Japanese Class

[deathbeast18]

ROCKIN' THE LRG!

[AshNuri]

my fav song. i apreciate this

[jampa1978]

this is ravel's "Pavane on the death of an Infanta"

[ThaWhistle]

Pavane pour une infante défunte.

its a variation, but it definitely sounds like its based on that

[Spectermonkey]

It's not exactly that song, but lo and behold, upon listening to it for longer than 5 seconds, the melody of the song does match this one pretty closely. All the beetle-brows who thumbs-downed you probably listened to the first 5 seconds and didn't hear anything...People are really intolerant these days.

[yyfrank2003]

fucking gorgeous man!

[kbilbou]

Did nujabes sample a song for this track, if yes what song?

[DocHallux]

if you find out, let me know. i KNOW he sampled at least one song for his track, possibly two. i've been trying to figure it out for a long time, lol.

[zhcg]

if i could just play one song on the guitar it would be this one

[heeh2]

you CAN play one song on the guitar dude just try

[LOCNL0ADED]

@heeh2 i wanna try man, but theres no tutorial for it. =[

[heeh2]

@LOCNL0ADED There are tabs for this song, just google it.

[LOCNL0ADED]

@heeh2 how do you read tabs

[ArcherJoeJoe]

You'll be surprised what 1 hour of practice every day can do.

[zhcg]

yeah you're right! i can actually play it now. not like this guy, but i'm getting there. practice practice practice.

[ChrisBranleh]

oh dude, you can totally pull this song of. I just started and its not too difficult at all

[TheSand19]

@zhcg what about the flute there is a flute no?

[bballr09]

@zhcg this happens to be the only song i can play on guitar lol

[gambledaniel]

This song is meant to be played half step down right?

[Kami5909]

Actually it's in C# so it's one and a half steps down if you're going by the track.

[akaflipmode]

it does not need to be played half step down, and this song is well known to be tabbed by thousands of people.

[Kami5909]

The main open string in the song is a C# bass note that you can't hit any other way than detuning from E to C#. That's three semitones. If you can't tell the difference you either have no ear or are terrible at guitar.

[akaflipmode]

im playing it in standard E.. and dropped it to a C either way it sounds great both ways. im not talking about the tone. the music in general is great. I ain't here to discriminate you douche.

[iamthewalrus911]

well duh but it sounds fine in standard tuning as well. You can just play it in A, which was what aka was saying.

[Kami5909]

Standard tuning would be in E, you guys are idiots.

[WOWGIVEMEMYNAME]

correct but at this db level in front of an audience no larger than himself, can you say it really matters?

[AirToui]

@Kami5909 oh sorry, not 1 and a half but 3
