[DRPEGASUS81]

What can i do to get the tabs for this masterpiece ???

[kaiviti88]

@DRPEGASUS81 go to candyrat.com and under tabs. This one and a few others are there

[MrBipulpandey]

Why do I suddenly feel so free and happy?!!

[AlecTheConfused]

this just made me real happy ^__^

[captxxchaos]

Deans right hand is always doing the same damn down up down up down up.... that left hand blows me away all you up and coming players take notice... its not speed, its rhythm and timing...

[bryanch100]

@captxxchaos

Just like everything in life, my friend!

B

[znajomyjenniferlopez]

kapitalne;]

[DontUseFX]

sounds like an improvisation on Last Caress from The Misfits^^

[mitnostrebo]

Very cool . Is that a D-18 he's playing..

[DEMAN777]

Magraw is my favorite on candyrat

[batmandannyb]

@DEMAN777 Me too! He's a true artist, very skilled.  And yes, I know him, so I'm biased, but still, he's exceptional.

[DEMAN777]

JUST BEAUTIFUL !!!!

[JereyRocksJerey]

So gawd dang nice music, pure goodness for my ears and brain hehe

[carfreakshreyas]

why does this guy never opens his eyes?

[MrIbanezExclusive]

@carfreakshreyas Because he is getting into his music. You must not play an instrument, no offence :)

[facemuscles9]

@carfreakshreyas He's like Michael Jordan. It's more impressive if he does the whole song with his eyes closed. Or maybe he had pink eye and candyrat would only let him use their studio if he didn't infect the other players.

[hugenoodles]

soooo cooooool :D

[mirokor]

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD­

[danielw1245]

wow, imagine how much time he probably spent figuring out all those different chords. Great song.

[ChaotixMachine]

Man, this guy looks like Dracula.

Pale, pointy ears, similar hairstyle ... all he needs is a cloak now. :P

[morrel06]

dai ma suona sempre la stessa cosa

[skaterfreak0891]

this guy is amazing

[morrel06]

i don't like his atyle, always the same theme no bridges..

[ManniMann1986]

0:50 - 1:10

no bridges? then what's that?

[Splurgendii]

lol did you just learn what bridges were?

[crazydiamond225]

anyone know what key this song is in?

[LoafofCat]

GAD!

[crazydiamond225]

whoa whoa.. no way, so he just alternates between those three keys?

[LoafofCat]

yep!

[snakeweirdo]

Modulates, but tonica in the beginning is G

[bohmaniac]

looks like G but I may be wrong.

[bohmaniac]

g maj that is

[demofactory]

This is a great song! I like that the melody and rhythm are a little more pronounced. Hours after walking away from the computer, I can still hum the melody and smile to it. Thanks for sharing with us

[SONGSTICKS]

Me Too !!!

I love Deans style, there's a fluidity to it that really pleases my ears.

"Isabella" is one of my favourites, but they're all brilliant !!

[exfl2010]

your videos realy soun perfect and one util thing it be that you can show as how to record in a basic way, here put the mic, what are the mic, what tipes of mic, sofwares (a have cubase), i have a samson cou3 and i realy want to have a good suond buen y cant get it its frustrating, you can show as how aislate, how to get thing with a littlie of money, what equipement we will use because it will be a very good thing to the comunity of youtube

i will apreciate a lot if you do that thanks

[xMrBumpyx]

what the hell are you saying?

[poisenbery]

@xMrBumpyx lol

[flocked]

GET BETTER, DEAN!! We're all praying for you.

[wdchrismon]

2:10 to 2:28... Grand. The devil could have my soul free of paper-work if he offered me half of these skills.

[wdchrismon]

Hell yeah! Get better fast as you can, man. And as soon as you feel up to it, (but not before) pick up one of those guitars and wow us some more.

[tman916x]

I think sdave meant to say open Emin11add9 tuning, which is standard tuning.

[BrianLane]

I applaud your technicality.

[tman916x]

haha I read it in a jazz book I recently got.

[jimbowe36]

Great Playing; so sorry to hear about your health problems;

get well soon; I want to hear more of that great guitar!

[niesmialypawel69]

niiiceee!!!

[PyuriProduction]

wuuuh, lets rock x)

[DeRok2008]

gad zooks

[tgamirov]

Addicted to this stuff.

[sfoxz003]

Funky!!! Oh yeah baby!!! wicked fingering progressions!!

[ElliotJohnBigland]

this guys cool wish i could jam with him does anyone know what tuniing hes using ? check my music oiut

[dickyp1]

you're kidding right? it's standard tuning, but dropped...

[GreenTamborineMan]

I love that funk part.. outstanding!

[deweythomson]

is there any tab?

how did he tuned is guitar?

[utopia1024]

sounds like hes in standard, and there tabs on the candyrat website, but idk of any free ones.

[sdave101]

It looks like an open E. Just watch the chords he uses.

[ELPepinoCosmico]

i thinks its standart tuning

[Rigoo13]

This is the master! This song is great xD!

[gundula999]

hey first of all this song is pretty exotic.

i do have a question on the author :

How can you do this dammdammdamm

at around 1,29 sec. you are doing this 4 times. i tried to play it but it didn´t work, so how did you do it ?

-yah bless-

[ELPepinoCosmico]

lol, there are many other harder parts than 1:28 ...

[12makes4]

1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,1,2,3,­4

[Galdor92]

You are great!!!!!

[mattd1015]

Every single time I hear one of his songs - it doesn't matter how often I've heard it, it completely blows my mind! Dean, you're the man keep up the amazing work!

[mickeblue]

Spanking.... no, I'll start again... awesome.

You have a new convert mate.

[LoafofCat]

Okay. How about this: I love this song because when I'm in a good mood, it puts me in a better mood because I'm reminded that someone out there still knows what real music is.

[ahartov87]

@LoafofCat how about nobody cares. xD Although Dean Magraw is a mindblowing guitarist. Still tho; nobody cares why you love this song.

[dustypuppy]

hard act to follow - very cool - wow

rpoland - your channel is the best on youtube !

[mechanapat]

ahhhhhhhh......

[PaddyVLU]

Cool tune. It bugged me for ages trying to figure out from where I recognised the chord sequence from 0:31 onwards. It was 'Eton Rifles' by the Jam.

[mckenziedmdm]

just listen to the beautiful music and make sure to think before you write something like that again

[SmalltimR]

I think it goes without saying that whatever comes out of ones ass isn't ever appealing.

[wdchrismon]

-laughs- I'd say thats one of the few rules that there really aren't any exceptions to.

[J05HBR0WN]

Wow this one was really good. Yet another awesome performance/song Dean.

5/5

[Edoss1]

I really feel that this is a great song for the simple people in the world. Its fun and very holmely. I can just imagine sitting on my porch with a cup of tea on a hot Brisbane afternoon with this playing. Wait, its a hot summer afternoon and I have tea in the pot. Brb, porch.

[samirharmim]

@Edoss1 haha the end of that comment was well funny

[beauceron]

I really like this one.

[beatshack]

yeah the fmt=18 plays an mp4 format which is stereo!!

[greenmarcosu]

I don't know how long RPO has been doing this but if you add the &fmt=18 to the end of the URL - WOW it sounds even more amazing. Wow, standard youtube sound quality is not that great aparently.

[danielw1245]

dude, just press "watch in high quality"

[ha7ed]

If you shallow dickheads can get past the visual on this, you might actually enjoy some of the best guitar playing in the world.

[vonlunger22]

I like that. I really like how your change ups blend together. You got my head bobbing.

[cgid23]

somebody should make a bobble head doll of him, itll be so life like

[zoroastres2]

hahaha

[tman916x]

this dude has a tight style!

[SonAmyTheHedgehog]

Out of all Magraw's songs, this is my favourite G major tune XD

[Gemanite55]

Such style!

I am awestruck!

[smctunes]

I want to call his head-bobbing dance "The Noodle." Everyone cool with that?

[funnystuff1284]

dude thats the shit! trad mark that!

[funnystuff1284]

trademark *

[LordLargo37]

I love you for just being alive. LoL. The Noodle. That's perfect.

[ManOnEarth17]

@smctunes this comment is awesome

[ronspeck]

@smctunes I'm very very cool with that.

[MrBipulpandey]

@smctunes Totally!!

:D

[smctunes]

His name is Tyler Durden!!

This guy bears an amazing resemblance to Edward Norton when he's got his chin down.

[funnystuff1284]

lmao ya i was about to say that!!!

[TheRealSumo]

Everytime I listen to this my head bobs

[arcticjungle6]

compared to this guy

i suck at both guitar and bobbling

i love his music.

[foxufire]

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOD THANK

[mrcooki3]

its a farmer song.. just imagine a dude with is forch happy to farm is land .. lol

YIIIIIIHHHAAAA

[Teo0o]

Hahahaha, it really reminds me this xD!

[jamesabrush]

i love candyrat records.

[werxx]

I want a Dean Magraw bobblehead..

[poisenbery]

omg that is probably the funniest thing ever

candy rat should make em for all their artists

[xsillyxcowx]

wow.

after reading your comment,

I realized that he really does "bobble his head" while playing a lot.

LOLS :D

[engelsburg]

Haha, yeah that would be awesome. Anyone ever look at Andy Mckee's song Art of Motion and then watch the video and laughed their ass off because his head bobbles non-stop in it?

[Viktotheman]

what's wrong with a bobbling head? The guitarist looks more like "he's in the song" he dosen't look bored which is not fun to see

[fsatxfurious]

singing without words :]

[artrook]

top performance

[arcticjungle6]

GADZOOKS SARGE

[nicoteni]

nice guitar!

I put this video in my iPod and my favorite.

[Gapenting]

i love when 2:29!!

[CloudminS]

Awesome!

[ATHODrew]

Awesome song...but amazing title lol

[sugaree53]

IVE BEEN PLAYING OVER 40 YEARS--and I would very gracioucly take a back seat to this guy--simply AMAZING!

[tubbs27931]

andy mckee makes this guy look retarted

[whowillbeeatenfirst]

"Retarted". Sublime.

[BurpingZombie]

"Retarted?" I love it when dyslexics try to type.

[TheRealSumo]

Maybe they meant Re-Tarted. The song is so good he deserves more pie

[LconJ]

hahahaha Nice, made me hungry

[fendertele76091]

good

and sweet muted ending too

that was classy!

nice song

[shep79]

NICE!!!!!!

[supermonkey1984]

grr i like it but it rambles. aside from the "chorus" riff it doesnt have much movement... its hard to explain... ;(

[wonhamOne]

BridgeToSolace ??? this guy is on the edge look at / listen to the speed and quality of his chord runs this is not 5 yrs or 10 yrs or 20 yrs playing this inate talent this man has IT please forget this 'Nothing particularly interesting or exceptional about it' this good stuff - world class guitar - a man in contro!!

[BridgeToSolace]

I've played guitar for 5 years. Of course, Magraw has probably been playing four or five times as long, but it does give me some insight into the complexity of the music. This a fairly simple, well written song. Nothing particularly interesting or exceptional about it.

And why'd you say "songs". This is only one :)

[werxx]

whatever makes you feel better, bro, lol. I've been playing for 5 years as well, but you don't see me trying to make myself feel better on other people's videos. Find your self esteem somewhere else, bro.

[achievist]

Let's see your Gadzooks cover first, Mr. Fairly Simple.

[j3ohnny]

a tiny bit of it kinda souns like joni mitchell big yellow taxi, i really like this song alot, i hope he does more like these...5stars...

[ortoPilot]

this is cool as fook,

this is technically awesome, just cos he's not playin at 1,000 mph doesnt mean its not top grade material.

lol @ edward norton

[joebelack]

simply and wonderfully crafted. I love songs that don't blow your mind with ild technique, but instead utilize good grooves and melodies to keep the song moving. great tune.

[Kronok]

very good song, its got this unmistakeable dean magraw sound to it, amazing! very good stuff to just chill out to, just like most of the other candyrat guys!

Thanks for the uploads!

[BridgeToSolace]

I didn't find this very impressive.

It's solid in all respects, but there's no "wow" factor or much to set this apart as really professional, like much of the other candy rat guys.

[lastingmemoriesmusic]

i know it isnt as technical and as "wow" as the rest of the candyrat guys but that, surely, aint a reason to not like it. its still a pretty cool song!

[MrFroster]

You have no idea how complex these songs really are.

[Hayd1100]

You could say the same thing for Peter Ciluzzi's music.

But there's a bit of a secret to these songs. While it doesn't look very difficult on paper or on screen, the subtle details are the "wow factor"

Every slide, every accent is done perfectly to give the song the feeling he wants. While it's not technically difficult, alot of the small things he's doing add up.

[simonpca]

Couldn't agree more with your comment... His attention to the small details make that song fantastic...

Technical guitar geekos should stop saying superficial comments about the relative simplicity of the song and understand that simplicity sounding that great is GOOD!

[keninkentwood]

Now it all makes sense! Edward Norton + Chet Atkins + Tommy Emmanuel = Dean Magraw

[Blackmofasa92]

lawl

[olepotti]

asm song.. really wanna try to learn it!

[wdchrismon]

YES!!!! More Dean Magraw!

[fawful67]

I like this song simply for the name.

[custardedcow]

preety good man mice beet

[gold0monkey]

ahhh so thats what data is up too after retiring from star treck next generation. he's a head wobbling pro guitar player. cool.

[utopia1024]

this guy is officially on my list of guitar heroes.

[achievist]

I want a Dean Magraw bobblehead. Oh, and I miss the Buddha shirt.

Having said that, this is a fantastic piece. Alternate picking/strumming master!

[XposedNerve]

If that's a Martin D-28 he's playing, then this is also great demo of what that amazing guitar can do in the hands of a great guitarist.

[dany79v]

it's a martin d-18, not 28 & probably a vintage

[XposedNerve]

How can you tell??

[Nebulez]

I meant foxfire sorry now i know i use the firefox browser to much -_-"

[Lanning9]

lol I did the same thing I thought it said "FireFox" (I also use the FireFox web browser)

[Nebulez]

this one reminds me a bit of firefox :) the way its played

[imixers]

My fingers are like soooo jelous (damn how do you spell that?) right now

[SwiggleE]

you guys are amazing. you guys know so many of these crazy songs...+ wrote them! I've only had time to learn one...shame..you guys rock, im adding this to my favorites.

[cranie4]

I'm waiting for the time when I see a new vid from Candyrat and don't instantly love it.

Somehow I don't think that time is coming ;)

[spoofzilla]

Canyrat Records feartures some amazing artists, him along with Antione Dufur are among my favorites, awesome playing.

[Magran10]

Buah :/

[alfromo2000]

genial¡

[Vvitold183]

Super gitara - fantastyczne możliwości wirtuozowskie.Five stars .

[yodaisahamster]

beautiful track, what a player

[TrooperCX]

this is super effing cool

[poisenbery]

new favorite song right here

wow

its in standard, right?

[strange54]

yep, standard tuning. you can buy tabs from candyrat. 15 bucks, but you get three of his songs as mp3, and you get tabs for all three.

[cptspoofy]

Either EADGAD or DADGAD (see title)

GAD zooks - hehe.

[ualbanychemist]

nope its standard tuning

[BrianLane]

It's in DADGAD hence the name "GAD" zooks.

[abakashi]

No man, it is in standard tuning.

[ualbanychemist]

wow that's how much you know about playing, listen to the tone and look at the chord formations it's in pure standard tuning

[BrianLane]

thanks virtuouso

[Stophocles]

You're a hero to super pale guitarists everywhere

[yodaisahamster]

LOL

[trustnodrug]

this is "big yellow taxi" , they forgot to mention that. qual guitar tho

[QuadropheniaBrosef]

wow...this is so amazing

[Nachowoper45678rtol]

Que gran dominio. Eso querria verlo tcoar a todos esos guittarristas de heavy que no hacen nada mas que repetir escalas.

Esto es dominio y lo demas gilipolleces huevos

[Magnumopus91]

was sceptical... but this is WAAAY to catchy!!!

[prox1mately]

Awesome guitarplay, seriously. Loved it 'til it stopped ;-) , then I clicked 'play' again.

[fyzikfyzik]

i almost stopped hoping he'll appear here.. But hell, he deserves to appear

[XposedNerve]

Absolutely amazing. This guy creates his own slap-back echo.

[MrFroster]

Dean Magraw is amazing. Upload more quick :D

[gurandorin]

he has the same guitar as me
