How To Play Michelle By The Beatles

[MooseLeader1]

good video but I think they recorded it with a capo? I saw Paul playing it recently at the White House Awards show and he used one

[rmartinez8176]

barre chords are piss easy on electric guitars

[itspersonalnick]

Wheres the second half of the song?

[bulltremor]

Very Good Illustration buddy,Just today I got over with 'And I Love Her' on Acoustic; next is Michelle, no other band has made me so happy when I play their songs, The Beatles are my soul; My life is now in a state that without practising The Beatles songs it may go void

[carot2003]

Sounds great..

[albertojau]

i learn this music in D

[vinnothelizard]

awful sound!! are u mad??

[aczepp]

get a mic so WE CAN HEAR YOU

[mrlinker99]

is that a Gio Ibanez

[AdameGrecque]

God you look pissed off to make this video. Slow down, give us the time to assimile the notes ...

[simonperes02]

tnx

[milkman5180]

this is shit

[Eder5837]

whats its the chords??... o what's its the tablaturas??

[vzlar0x]

This chors are too painful

[joydivided23]

You're definitely not playing the right notes! Idiot!

[vzlar0x]

@joydivided23 yes he is playing the right notes

[MrRedwoodvalley]

@joydivided23 sounds right to me, and if you did think something was wrong why don't you just use constructive criticism?

[jerml21]

@ItalianoAmericano The original Beatles recording was in the key of F, and one guitar was played capoed at the 8th fret.

[AL3xguitarist]

a good teacher would have put tabs!

[sacramentolove]

Your videos forced me to subscribe to you! Help! xD

[barbox123]

the people here that keep saying he sucks are gay.your just jealous cuz they cant play guitar

[PopularZap]

I think the song is in D man? Nice progressions but wrong key...

[ctelles123]

0:19 epic fail

[blobyist]

whys is evrone mooasning hes fine

[TheBassoonGuy]

Dude, this has really helped a lot! Thanks!

[Mitziii94]

thanks man. you can teach. :)

[gluikiwlick]

u'r good (Y)

[jzama99]

You didn't teach the solo y.

[jayloonar]

@jzama99 transcribe u scub

[10ccalanarkush]

I think he's a fine teacher. This is meant for an itnermediate to advanced level, if you're a beginner, you're going to have a hard time playing diminished chords anyway, if you don't have prior knowledge of them.

[YShattered]

Great lesson 4 me bro great work

[dngz0r]

You officially suck at teaching...

[xXloverchic17Xx]

4:47 best part

[TheRockinMania]

@xXloverchic17Xx I know ! So that idiot won't have to teach us ! :D

[Theshamham]

fuck you

[MagicalMysteryTube]

Nice job overall. Too bad you've got all that distracting noise going on in the background.

[bonnievalles]

the 3rd and middle finger are the same thing

[lollyhobbid]

Please Watch my cover of Julia

[CletusColtrane]

Great lesson.......I have the sheet music, exactly the same.......no capo on the 5th crap

Great Work

[100cpd]

wrong

[Jas0nP]

I can't work out what he's doing on the slide. 9 on b which is played then something about pinky and a slide i can't match the sound of. Anyone help? Thank you

[assassinman340]

is there any tabs?

[able1039]

my fingers are like fat sausages

[aRietD]

hey my fingers arent fat anymore i can barr stuff now :DD sweet i can play this

but having a drawring of the chord would've been nice i had to keep replaying

5 stars

[Alien8990]

I think the sound around 1:19 were people who were laughing at you play

[pipegonza]

You have the tabds of Solo?

[Phazur]

thx for the lesson man!

capo is not needed if you use your barre chords well

[scoop909]

@Phazur using a capo will utilise more open strings which changes the tonality of the chord. Sometimes barchords provide the warmth that open strings dont.

[NotSoUniversal]

actually I think it's from 43 to around 50 that's not taught

[Sewyer]

would be easier if u slowed it down a little :\

[darkmassiahk97]

i know right

[Frogrick12]

Where's the capo? It's supposed to be on the 5th fret to play the song as The Beatles played it.

[daregularperson]

Thanks for the capo tip. i then looked at the "weird f7 chord" and saw an a shape! :)

[aRietD]

i cant do F

my fat fingers touch the other strings

[osmark0]

you can tilt your finger in a way so it doent touch. so have the side of your index finger to bar

[crorens]

get an acoustic guitar (its wider) :D

[ItHappens117]

everyone who liked this comment laughed at this or has fat fingers

[explodingmoons]

haha maybe it's not fat fingers. i think it just takes lots of practice cause that used to be a hard one for me.

[JotaLegendOfficial]

@aRietD play it like this... do C chord bring your Middle, ring, and pinky fingers one string down, and with the index play the first two strings in the first fret, now play it and it will be F, but don't touch the sixth string

[jayloonar]

@aRietD SCRUB

[jayloonar]

@aRietD scrub

[FelixFaction]

@jayloonar scrub

[NotSoUniversal]

he doesnt show what yur ssupposed to do on the "I love you I love I love you" part except in the beginning...but he only plays it

[JDSexY94]

it looks so easy but it doesn't!!!!

[luthomdod]

why are smiling like a dumb on 00:22 - 00:24 ?

BTW nice lesson!

[cloud144000]

he smiled because he messed up hitting the chord.

[9201773]

exellent lesson

[Saiya6CIT]

It took me a while, but now I can play it, thank you so much!

[pepedropos68]

Very very god

[carlpfitz]

Great vid,helped me a lot.

[nichtfweep]

uschdog is a proper nob ovb.

[pheanixking]

If you wanna be like The Beatles.... Why don't you just keep the peace :P, I do agree that he said some uncalled for things, but there is no time in life to sit here fighting about it

[lilygreen777]

pheanixking: you are so lack of social manners, this is a guitar demo, has nothing to do with "wanna Beatles". There are so much "dumbed ass bad postings" here to ruin a good thing on Youtube.

[pheanixking]

lily... Read the rest of the comments... It was in retrospect to the people fighting over what someone said I was showing it was stupid... Pleas don't try and make internet drama... You aren't going to live long, so why spend the time you have trying?

[TheRaimundo0]

exelent!!! tanks

[PedruxFPE]

VERY GOOD...MUITO BOM!!

[FillHellMouth]

Why so many negative comments? This man has given his time to share what he knows for free.

Thanks Dan, that's another piece of music that I can now play that I couldn't before.

[FillHellMouth]

That should read "Thanks Adam" of course. Doh!

[xillermo]

La segunda posición (postura de guitarra), es mayor 7ª...el tono menor suena muy categórico y deslavado, fome..., y si escuchas al coro que hace The Beatles es como una explosión de música...prueba...

[uschdog]

Good God get a Gibson and burn that fender for firewood.

[nasiraliclark]

Stupid comment thats all I'm gunna say.

[guitarandrums]

youre a moron

[uschdog]

Retard. It's "you're" as in "you are". Keep your stupid trap shut until you get your 8th grade english down pat.

[guitarandrums]

haha i did write you're

i just dont have my asshole so clenched that i feel the need to put apostrophes in fucking youtube comments

do you really have so little real friends that you feel need to exploit minor spelling and grammar issues in informal youtube comments

douchebag

[uschdog]

And your wit is just as sharp.

[guitarandrums]

just as sharp as what

youre a moron

[animerickoso]

do yuo have the tab?

[kennybiz]

nice job...thanks...looks kind of difficult for me though..

[zamboni1732]

just feed me the chords none of this fingering on frets and strings rubbish, you probably never formaly learned guitar

[logipi79]

You fault him for being thorough in his teaching? You fault him for a methodology that reaches the largest populace? Whatever you consider formal training not everybody learns the same way nor wants to. Just because you did something a certain way doesn't mean everyone else must. Not everyone want to relegate themselves to snobbery such as yours. If this helps more people to learn a song or increase their interest to further themselves at whatever stage of their guitar abilities then kudos.

[nasiraliclark]

Some people don't know the names of the chords and so what you can still learn guitar with out learning it formally like an uptight ass hole.

[zamboni1732]

*ignorance is never nessecary*

now if i gave you some sheet music you guys would never be able to play it.

unfortunately it is the truth.

[nasiraliclark]

Well I would actually but thats not the point I am 100 percent self taught and i know the chords, all there names and a ridiculous amount on pretty much anything about guitar. Also you probably got music lessons which is great for you but i cant afford that cause im not as wealthy as you perhaps but the whole point is why are you being a cunt about it you self righteous snobby bastard. So do you think your better a gtar then me cause you got taught formally? ARROGANCE is never necessary.

[halo6lord]

And if I gave you an orchestral score, you prick, you wouldn't even be able to read it. Stop acting like you're better than everyone else. But maybe I should stop being ignorant of the fact that you're a "British Limey" who's "37" years old and obsessed with the Beatles, spewing out singles like Filtered Sun, which nobody has even heard of. Not to mention the fact that you obviously are incapable of using proper spelling and grammar, no doubt a result of your failed schooling.

[halo6lord]

Let's not forget the fact that you are obviously 10 years old, shown by your "HARRY POTTER AND THE SORCERER'S BONE" pre-pubescent voice. Filtered Sun is little less than a cavalcade of crap piled together, with mediocre sound effects. Honestly, I bet you couldn't even play this song, which is probably the reason you came to look for it;you were probably put off by the fact that you didn't know the string notations or something and resorted to immature comments as a counter lashing. You sicken me

[guitarandrums]

fuck you dude

the beatles couldnt read sheet music so fuck off

or just dont listen to their music and click the fucking x on the top of the window

douche bag

[themuse1]

im with you lol

uschdog is a faggot

[dawgge]

where's the "i love you, i love you, i love you" part? :-(

[imaxcrunner2013]

This is awesome. Thanks a ton!

[mrbohameed111]

good jop

[spartacus1125]

wtf he didnt teach us the part at 1:05

[polerkole]

yeah they just teach us like a certain part of a song and not all so we can buy it from them to learn more... its kinda gay but you gotta make money.

[spartacus1125]

i kno those bastards haha jk. bt i already learned the solo so its all good now.

[spartacus1125]

i think hes a good teacher. u just gotta listen. i think the chords r pretty hard tho

[Nunsweepit421]

There must be an easier way of playing this. Wait a minute, there is, just search youTube.

[Steezedisease]

is this a hard song? i just picked up the guitar like i sorta began today but i can play 5/4 clint eastwood feel good inc (intro) im yours (intro) offend in everyway (intro) does anyone think i could do it? my misses is coming to visit me and its her favourite song so id like to learn it :)

[THEtinybrat24]

It's my favorite song too! I'm also a begginer and i don't know if i can play it either.

[dioct14]

[reficuz]

[shadowsbode]

where is the rest of it?

[mike6754321011]

What is the chord he is playing at 0:50? i got the one right before that from trial and error but what is that one at 0:50

[Ferrariprof]

can u give the chords and the tabs ?

[trufiend138]

im not sure which one wrote the acutal music to the song but just goes toi show the top class muscians they are..beyond the heart throb thing...the song writes itself

[nanna1806]

paul wrote it, when he was trying to seduce girls by acting french in the early days : D

[Exkwsit]

you are amazing..i love this song...and i need to learn this soon...i need to get my chords down first because im a newbie on guitar, maybe i'll play it on piano instead

[HelloHolaCiao]

What's the C major chord at the end?

[noneed2refrigerate]

i dunno how he's doing it but i'm playing it lyk this

6B

7G

7D

8A

hope this helps :)

[zmxvbj]

um wheres the rest of the song?

[4c00h]

it repeats...

[takashi2000]

I have very small, short stubby girl hands. ;__;

That stretch to 6 seems impossible. I'll keep trying, but I think I'm actually physically incapable... -_-

[NathanMantle]

if you cant stretch that far, there is a way to do it. you just need to sort of "jump" to it, very quickly, and then quckly back.

takes practice though.

[takashi2000]

Ahhh, I never thought of that! Thanks a lot :3 I'll keep that in mind for this and future issues.

The stretch has actually become easier for me since, but I dont know if it'll ever be spot on. I'm actually just beggining. Most likely I shouldnt be trying to play this song while just starting out XD

[NathanMantle]

well maybe it is a bit hard for your level, but think of it this way, once you get it, you can try playing easy songs and they will seem even EASIER! good luck :)

[GoldenGhettoFilms]

if anyone could please provide instructional for the other chords..that would be great

thx!

[GoldenGhettoFilms]

plz, i implore the bridge chords & solo slowed & zoomed :)

[ninit1]
