How to play "Bubbly" by Colbie Caillat

[jeaniesChannel]

Thanks! Was soo helpful!

Im pretty good at guitar, but this was challenging which is always good!

I don't know how i can play the f bar chord thingy, but using an f power chord works too (:

Thanks a heap, I needed this for an assignment & you were the best one for it!

[michcomedy]

This was really easy to follow. And even tho Colbie plays it on the 7th, mine sounds more like hers on the 9th so idk if the tuning is diff or what. But I suck up that f chord. Prob cuz I've never heard of barring b4 haha.

[julial88]

She plays it in the 7th fret, but this is good!

[Thebaneofyourexistan]

Thanks so much!

[TheFlames183]

this is the last time i ever listen to andy dick

[980sublime]

Thanks man, u helped a lot! Good job :)

[9jababiie]

how do u tune the strings cuz mine doesn't sound like that ugh

[elainenovel]

..thank you..you are kind and good..=)

[theciaraworld]

oh my gosh ! thank you so much !

[awkwardturtlegurls]

is tha nylon stinging

[eminemfan572]

Yup 7th fret not 9th =3

[Scarlettess7]

umm the tutorials good and all but she actually plays it on the 7th fret, not the 9th. ;-)

[sweetmichelle17]

you're so gooooood ! :) but i still can't get it. urgh, maybe the guitar isn't just meant for me. :(

[myradiowaves]

hi :D thank you for this!!!!!! this is the most helpful tutorial i've found on youtube. :D :D :D

[supergethot]

[MrDharmaditya]

[kyuhamato]

[funkygal105]

you're a good teacher!

[Maria51492]

cool



[TNTshot]

you're awesome! I love how you ended the tutorial with the smooth strumming at 9:28. Very good! Thank you!

[faxwingard]

dude, i dunno what's up, but i can tell your awesome ;)

Thank you ;) very useful

[blakiller1995]

Thats not how she plays it! The sound is absolutely diferent. The Chords of the real song are A major, A major 7 and D major with NO CAPO.

[zaputzaput1]

When you're teaching, you don't have to explain every beginner chord because a beginner would have to learn the basics and this is not what your intent is here. Thanks for the tut.

[18tigerli]

@zaputzaput1

he just wanna make sure that the tutorial is foolproof.

[yomamas00]

what key is it in?

[KevinLoveTheMusic]

@duck97 i have the same guitar :D

[JunctionCemetery]

Thank you! This is one of the most detaile videos so thank you..easy to understand and what not..very good..

[Ruthsinging]

Thank you so much! This toutorial is the best bubbly tutorial on youtube.

Your awsome!

[oonatukia]

thank you for helpin' me (:

[amonamarth606]

Dude you suck!! Quit playing guitar before you make everyones ears bleed!!! Shit

[trancesetters07]

[trancesetters07]

u cant play it never mind teach it

[trancesetters07]

u cant play it never mind teach it

[M3XICANFL3M]

N!CE S!NG!NG DUDE!!!!! XD

Lol'z

[sweetballinangel]

wat if u dont have a capo..can you still play it?

soorrry that prolly like a noob question but w.e lol

[SeraDoll89]

awesomee! Thankss :)

[NERDkingHERE]

so its c ,em5, em3, f bar chord,

[theeasygoingful]

@shoveherinthefreezer listen to the sound of his playing, can't you tell he is wrong?

[theeasygoingful]

@shoveherinthefreezer imagine

[theeasygoingful]

@shoveherinthefreezer it is not a brawl dude, but he is listening to this conversation and he should say he is wrong. Imaging everybody trying to play this song so wrong.

[Ashley14332]

@theeasygoingful I agree with shoveherinthefreezer. Edison is wonderful!

[theeasygoingful]

@shoveherinthefreezer read 54lalapolooza comment, there is the answer. the capo is placed on the 7th fret. all he (duck97) has to say is that he was wrong, and he still will be as good playing guitar as he is.

[theeasygoingful]

the pulls sound to forced. I thing the 'chords' too high. man How do you know this is the right position of the capo.

[duck97]

@shoveherinthefreezer Thanks for everything! Glad you found this video helpful, let me know if my other videos work for you.

And on another note,

Happy birthday!

~Edison

And I'm not mexican, I'm an LA native for my whole life, although I'm about to move to Santa Cruz.

[theeasygoingful]

it does not really sound clear



[theeasygoingful]

are you sure this is how she plays it. if yes, prove it

[54lalapalooza]

@amyt066 - I'm not saying it wasn't good, What I'm sayin is that he should Know his facts before he sits there and says that she played it on the 9th tab when in fact she Played it on the 7th. Look the video up your self if you don't believe me. It's the second or third search when you search that song. go for it. Prove me Wrong, I dare you.

[theeasygoingful]

@54lalapalooza you are certainly making sense. just to listen to the sound of his pulls gives you a sense of not being played right

[juggalobadass94]

just an fyi the string numbers from bottom to top e 1 b 2 g 3 d 4 A 5 E 6 other than that good job

[54lalapalooza]

hmm thats funny, you said she plays it on the 9th tab, when I'm watching her play live right now at Billards, aaaannd What do you know... shes playing on the 7th... someone needs to get their facts straight.

[amyt066]

@54lalapalooza Shit at least he tried. I suggest you make a tutorial if this one is up to you standards?

[000NoctemAeternus000]

[MsMeganMcD]

[Drumhead13th]

U Suck a lot why don't you just play and we just clearly see better than explaining like a retarded like you're teaching a 2 yr old boy. FUCK YOU!@

[bollyvvood1]

Drumhead, I would rather call you dumbhead, but whatever.. This video is awesome, and this is so good for beginners like me, and if youre that good, then just skip the teaching part...

[shaclayclay5115]

im pretty sure she plays it with the capo on the 7th...

[lolaistlila]

my guitar doesn't sound well when i put my finger on the string i play.. but the video is great

[KevinAcousticReggae]

thanks man good job may peace be with you one love

[Detth2you]

lmao this song is kinda hard to play on my guitar since it's pretty small

[xXxjEsSiExLuVzxXx]

i dun have a capo!!...imma ask my music teach 2 help me buy 1

[fticobraman]

Uhh??? Your string numbers are backwards. How about learning the basic guitar essentials? Top is 6 and bottom is 1!!!!

[Jessiramz101]

help me! how do i play it if i dont have that black thing

[quertierman]

you can just play it normal and it will just be in a different key.or u can get a pencil and use a pencil or hair tie to keep it in place i hope that helped =)

[Tazinie]

@Jessiramz101 A, Amaj7, D, A

[Raaaachxx]

Im not very sure about guitar and things as I've never taken a single guitar lesson in my life, but can someone tell me if this cover tutorial is the right one?

(No offence to the dude that made this vid, I assure you, you have wiked guitar skills. I shit you not)

[theclamthatquacks]

ummmm the thinest string is 1st string and the thickest is the 6th XD

[skate4real72]

omg thankyou that was pissin me of the whole time!

[PrivRyan]

@theclamthatquacks Ya, that threw me off so bad. :P

[theclamthatquacks]

@PrivRyan yeah this dude isn't the brightest. that's not even the right version of the song! this whole thing is a fail haha

[alitheone22]

that sounds horrible.

[TiagoNigga]

" hero " by nickelback

[MrBlink1]

Go, fuck some fish!

[Raaaachxx]

[FilipeAntunesPT]

[Barrelracer4life8]

[balletdancer8014]

i think you went a little too fast, but it helped(:

[arianaysabel]

[TheSexiibeast13]

[almostsk8ergurl]

[bayside675]

[raffykhykepogi]

[kmangley]

Great video! It really helped :)

[suezz99]

[icdp]

igualzinho o fossil mn!!!!

[telecoustic]

Great vid, but you have your string numbers backwards. 6 is the bass string, not 1. Other than that, cool tutorial man.

[hooderana]

As an absolute beginner urs is the BEST tutorial video!!! EXCELLENT!

[thecuzesofglory]

[BeautifullyFabulous]

[poilinlynch]

[xnostrilfootx]

[mafer10391]

please put the notes, thanks :)

[nicholas217]

[samsikhead]

your a gd player, but you clearly dont know what string is which, the low E is string 6 not string 1 , u dont know ur strings ! ! ! !

[etikas2008]

[DancingPrincessBoo]

ur kinda cute

[DancingPrincessBoo]

where'd u get ur guitar?

[pthola]

Very nice... I watched a few lessons for this song, but yours works the best... Nice!

[bonustime12]

[djapio909]

[LoveMaker11]

[LoveMaker11]

mine sounds... so off... i think my guitar is out of tune

[alis0nn]

so nice ! =D

[IZISubscribeIZI]

thanks very dude xD

[darkeyes60]

I like this video ,but how do I download it on to my computer harddrive?

[TalkingSkin]

If you are using Firefox, there is a widget called DownloadHelper.

[Kmolifir]

i'm sorry... but the strings you say are wring... the very bottomo string is string 1... the top is 6... u got them upside down

[SpYwareDjez4u]

no actually the top is the 1 and the lowest is 6 cuz its starts getting higher not getting lower

[hlnub]

The string on the top of the neck is the 6th string. The string on the bottom of the neck is the 1st string. Its opposite than what you would think. The guy in the video is wrong... but you can still understand what he means.

[kristinelizabeth23]

thank you so much!

[princesstri03]

hey... that's a nice one... for beginners it's soooooooooo comprehensible... and it's just really great... nice job man!

-brokenhearted'26-

[kahmed2222]

Incredible, especially since you did not formally learn guitar, you have a talent and a gift. Thank you. DId you cover any Jason Mraz songs?

[avweije76]

hey edison, great tutorial man, really clear, easy to pickup. im a beginner, but have checked some more of your material, really like it.

have 1 remark on this one, not sure yet if im right or not, but looking at the original video, i dont think she strums before she plucks the 3 strings simult. i think she first plucks 4 simult, then the 3 like you say (the 4th string being the B string)

pls let me know if you think its correct or not, appreciate your comments, thx :)

[Gelev007]

very good!

Now I can play Bubbly too!

thanks. xx

[jcastr000]

[miaroseweloved]

[Jehuty92]

[3404800]

~thewreckers12

[Cherryy88]

[GraemeBerke]

check out frettkilr

[duck97]

I'm actually subscribed to him =P he's amazing

[kimbafun]

YO YOUR BEAST YOU ROCK

[jcast1976]

Edison, thnx for tutorial, its actually the first real song I'm learning how to play. I am having trouble with the F chord, but I'm getting it. My fingertips feel like they were put through a blender. Got anymore tutorials ?

Peace..

[duck97]

haha, check my channel, I have a few more tutorials =P

[brut369]

yes im actually playing it as we speak haha, anyway, right now it is going well, the f chord for me is being difficult, i react fast on bar chords easily, its the strength behind the finger that is NOT working aahahha the bottom 2 and sometimes 3 do not always work, i even tryed powering it more by putting my left thumb lower on the BACK of the neck, other then that, the only other challenge is the finger picking at the end, yo bro u did a very good job, well done again... u have a myspace??????

[duck97]

well, if you want the barre chords to sound cleaner, make sure you're really pressing with your left thumb. also, use the side of your index finger to barre with, it's easier.

and i do have a myspace, look for Edison Mellor-Goldman

[brut369]

and i saw ur vid at 10:06 ahhaha so i found ur vid after a while!!! ahah

[duck97]

well, hope it helps and all =)

any luck with this song yet?

[brut369]

EDISON!!!, yo, i am sooo stupid, i got home from school at 2:45 and looked at tabs and chords on every website and watch every video tutorial there was and nothing helped and everyone sucked at guitar so im like "screw this song!" lets see if edison had anything good to show me... and then im like WTF! no fucking way! hes got bubbley! and its actually like a turial turorial! like its like no joke everyone else just shows u!, wow thanks man! thanks sooo much!, pce and continue playing bro!! -matt

[dreamofmidnighthour]

HI

your interpretation is really good but its not the right way how she is playing this song. in the video she plays ist with the capo on 7th fret

[WESTS13]

hey thanks for going to the effort to post this it really helps...cheers mate

[bbrunoahc]

wtf, are you jessica alba brother !?!?

[ion97]
