Guitar Hero (SArmstr0ng plays Even Rats)

[CthulhuDarkLord]

One of my all time favorite songs from my all time favorite indie bands.

[bigymclargehuge]

DONKEYLIPS FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!

[davemcq]

Good memories of this song, loved playing it full blast on my TV.

[DarkJediJCer]

It's strange, I was listening to the song in your intro on a plane a few days ago, wondering where I had heard it before, and then I remembered your GH videos. Funny how that works, huh?

Sit Down. Stand Up. (Snakes & Ladders) by Radiohead. ^-^

[Brockbfball1563]

Salute Your Shorts kicks ass!

[GuitarNerd11]

actually, it's great to see all these old videos. and for the record, watching your videos when they first showed up like these, was the reason why i went to score hero of its time. thanks!

[Takahama]

one year ago I comented here...man..you are the best gh player..today i can do a better record than this one...hahaha..things change...but i konw from your other video you have improved a lot to..tou play with HP...thats hard..xP today i did 5* in all gh1 musics...xDD i think nobody watch your video anymore...xPP but i think if you record you playing ttf everybody will watch..xD byeee..ahh and thank you SArmstr0ng...you were my inspiration to play gh a lot and improve so much..realy thx!

[NuffPus]

[puertonicob]

my high score on this song is 301565 if anyone can beat it please reply

[kfreezy23]

320k. but this is my favorite gh1 song and i used to play it a lot. i could probably still do better but i havent play gh1 in at least a year. hooked on rh/gh3/gh4! haha

[FacciaFocaccia]

yeah! you rock and that song is really amazing... but I beat u (298294 points):P

[sApLaYa10]

this song has to be the best song on gh1 by far....

[cas00]

hahah salute your shorts <3

[dragonfliiii]

I love your videos!!

This song is my favorite of all GH1, 2 and 3 and was actually my first (and successfull) expert try, because of you!

My husband couldn't believe it, I can beat him haha!..... thanks ;)

You're the best!

[dragonfliiii]

Wow

[MATTHEWGU4]

Wow. Tomorrow this video will be 2 years old, I believe.

[FacelessSyrup]

How did you get a red SG before GH2 came out?

[SArmstr0ng]

For a short time, they had special edition "Cherry Red" SGs on the Redoctane website.

[FacelessSyrup]

Oh I didn't know that.I didn't get Guitar Hero until number 2 came out.

[davemcq]

i almost bought one of them :D

man, this song is awesome! only song i still kinda play from GH1

[Jimbomiles]

Lol, you can tell this is an old comment as the cherry SGs now come as standard with guitar hero 3!

[assualtz]

this thing plugged in? xD

[stealthamo]

Salute Your Shorts FTW

[x6twink9x]

i cry because this song is so good

[brittany09]

this is still my favorite song out of all the guitar heroes. i wish you didnt mess up right when u used that star power. you should redo it and post it again. ;]

jkjk

[uzigrounds]

oh man, almost 300,000!

[MechaSpyder]

Does it scare you that this video is nearly 2 years old?

It scares me. :|

[DrewG77]

YOU READ MY MIND. IT TERRIFIES ME.

[J0hnny0hm]

this song is so freakin' easy, but I always make 1 stupid mistake to miss the FC. oh well, it's awesome.

[SArmstr0ng]

Same here. Bah. :)

[plevitt]

this is one of my favorite songs at the moment.. a great example of a rock-based love song imho. also, really easy to play on guitar hero ;]

[MarcMaamary]

nice good job

[SonicAndStanFreak]

4|25 is so soothing

[xJohnMarkx]

LOL nice man. Loved the video.

[HobbinsC]

spring is nice in canada

[zazumage]

on that long red note before the outro, i know nobody who can get half a bar of starpower from it...

[flamingdonut141]

I JUST NOW!!

Did Hahaha

I read this, played the song, and did it XD

[akakiki4111]

Thats easy if your un expert like me,But i use the concroler

[zsector]

LOL I'M SO MUCH BETTER THEN YOU LOL.

Just kidding. People need to realize, he got 99% on this song, on Expert, almost two friggin years ago. Going by how well I progressed since getting GH2 for the 360 on launch day, I'd say that he could PROBABLY rape your unborn children. (at this game.)

[akakiki4111]

who cares prove if your so good

[Dollars8319]

^^ Sick man.

[530pm]

haha bro, you need to get vids of Guitar Hero 3 mannn..and when yeah do man, yeah should let me know :P

[SArmstr0ng]

I've gotten 100% a ton of times since then. This video was done almost two years ago.

[1101011thecrazyswede]

just played the song on frets on fire, expert. it's harder with a keyboard...well nice skillz. getting gh 3 4 wii soon.

[shikamaru1397]

hail the master of even rats (bows down) i beg of u master teach meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee ^_^ :) XD

[kazenokizumi]

i made a higher score butss, i dont do up-down strokes, my thumb like freakin hurts, and you make it so effortless

TEACH ME YOUR WAYS!

[2006JAD2006]

my best is 99% on this song on expert, missed bout 5, bt i cant strum up n down as well as that, good job :)

[Bumselumse]

Oh god i love the way you play it :P It just looks awesome ^_^ Especially because i started loving this song after i played it the first time on guitar hero, i've found so many good songs on guitar hero 1 and 2 and i just love them :P Good job! 5/5! :D

[evilditto]

hey hey i love how u play first time ive seen someone do that it makes u look so epic xD 5/5 good job and nice song

[goldenlotus]

WUH-uh-oh,

WUH-uh-oh,

Wuh-ohhhhh

man, i love this song

i think i like the guitar hero version better than the real thing, too.

[Gamergonetwisted]

lol dude i got 314 546 on that song

[Grayzone]

I can get most of that too but I strum only down and it makes a really obnoxious noise and pretty much ruins the soothingness of the song. D: I'm teaching myself how to strum up and down on slower parts.

[Sagara562]

damn your so good i cant even beat it and it took me 2 months to finally get it straight out :P

[bennyboy53]

haha you missed two.... i wish i could only miss two:(

[phoenix9909]

one of my favorite songs, specially the ending

[tyler1234321]

very nice i only saw like 2 mistakes and one was because of starpower (to avoid that you can simply use the heel of your palm to press the select botton to activate star.)

[Rogruka]

man i dont know how u can play like that strumming up and down all through it i can do that lol u rock

[organreaper]

my friend is realy good but no where as good as that dam thats crazy good

[peteaboda1]

hahaha I remember salute your shorts!

[TravMeatwad]

Soo.. this song never gets hard? Looks extremely easy.

[Necromancer1000]

Heheheh, I hate it when I miss notes when trying to activate Star Power XD This is my second fav song in the whole game. I liked the intro too XD; silly. Good job playing, yo!

[poopr1221]

this is my favorite song. in the whole game

[thebnash27]

im likin the radiohead intro as well as the jammin!

[Hockeyandguitar]

aha, i like the cheat shirt!

[JDallison1991]

dude thats fuckin amazing, i cant play this game for shit, lol

[JessiDlux]

I love this song, its prolly my favorite to play. I do it perfectly too, though I guess thats no achevement, this is a pretty easy song. Either way, keep rocking! <3

[SuperStud100]

BloodyHowlingX shut the hell up. I hate people like you. These games are for entertainment, If dosent want to learn guitar than thats it. Y dont you post pictures of you playing the guitar and stop being a retard.

[Death10014]

Im just wondering...are you into this kinda music or are you more into hip-hop and RnB

[cttoyota]

dude i think u are like the only guy i've ever seen who alt strums every note besides me. i even do it when i have to play on easy with my sister lol

[BloodyHowlingX]

Hey n00b Learn to play a REAL guitar NYAAAH!

haha just kidding..........or am i?

[gitrdun01dasouthrulz]

lol salute ur shorts...

[nungnungz]

good!!!!

[Dan9794]

Salute your shorts?

[muffinmanben72]

dude. this song is so easy.

[SArmstr0ng]

I don't remember saying that it was hard?

[SmAshEdin2PiEcEz]

Great video.

Damn I remember when I was really little, my sister used to tease me and tell me Sponge was my boyfriend and I would fucking cry so hard.

[Icedoggy924]

is this on the 1st guitar hero?

[unnamedhobo]

No, he got GH2 a full 9 months before it was released...

[LSDandPCP]

whenever I play this game around people who hanven't seen or played, I always at some point play this song for them. No matter what type of music they like (people who wanna see C.B.F.H., Iron Man or Symphoney of Destruction, or someone who like Killer Queen, More Than a Feeling or Stellar) they always say, "Wow, that was really good song." after I finish. Hail Even Rats!

[sariphs]

This song is my Favorite song, got 100% on it and highest score was like 334k.

[TranceXZero]

It's crazy how you can strum up and down on every note, I would die doing that.

=p

[Icedoggy924]

i love that song

[jakep34]

ohhh RADIOHEAD ALL AROUNNNNDD...

[jake34456]

stupid mistake on 4:10 tryin to hit the blue,

tooo baddd

[15thavenueboys]

Good Song.

[ssick92]

salute your shorts

[GTcole]

funny intro!

[luizpresents]

but i got 100%

[luizpresents]

great entry

[anyanimeluver]

I got like 210 K on hard :/

[nordbergskole]

i have scored 313k on this

[Fractur3d]

It's only 5 stars if you landed every note perfect ^^

EVER NOTE

so you always miss a couple in your vids so you ge a strong 4 stars and a little bit

[Muggle24]

um... no

[Vinchenze9]

I see 5-stars, not four... that means your wrong

[zepplinz]

This song is easy. I used to play viola now I play violin. I think strumming down is easier on songs like this

[jimpappy]

I love playing this song, but I stum down only. I'm just used to pizzacato on the Viola (A Big Violin) with which you only pluck one way, but I am still able to play close to all songs on Expert, I've gotten almost perfect on Even Rats on Expert with only missing about 5 notes-99%

[J0hnny0hm]

this thing even plugged in?......oh yeah. (LOL!)

[Brody6666]

play six on expert

[theguitarinator]

lol i tried that...my hand still hurts :(

[halopgriffon]

Six isn't that hard to play on expert with pratice, you just need to be able to strum really well. The only problem is it's the hardest song to 5* in my opinion. Jordan is the hardest to pass, but it's alot easier to 5*

[Iacrodgers]

its a very chillaxing song.

[themasterofreality]

hey, can you make a video from guitar hero 1 ''more than a feeling'' by boston

please ty

[phinoxklaw]

why dont u do the strum bar just down u always do it up down u think ur awsome doin the up down is easier

do it just down

[SArmstr0ng]

As I said in the other video, "up and down" strumming is what you're SUPPOSED to do, especially for faster songs.

And I never said I was awesome. Quit being so insecure.

[HackDiesel]

Yeah down-strumming is easier, on EASY.

[phinoxklaw]

i do most of all expert song with the down strum

i dont have to

[MightyLittleMan000]

My best score on this is 308,716. Took me a couple of tries, but still. And "Salute Your Shorts" Haha XD

[bobdolecult]

favorite forumite? who the fuck?

[themasterofreality]

eh, iza awesome song but easy gj

[conkerlive101]

hah i can ace this song on expert.

but u were still freekking awsom dood 10 out of 10 stars man

[zooofazie]

I thought I was good! ~%)

[173067]

You Rock but how come your video of you doing

Take Me Out Was the only one you got 100% on?And do you always play on Expert?

[cbubke15]

thats crazy dude i like the double strum i try to play some songs like that and i jus cant do it haha at least not very well

[frogstomp66]

not bad.......i can 100 percent that song but its a pretty slow song. try jordan on expert......then youll know the real meaning of pain lol

[tbird990]

i noticed u hold the strum bar down as you're playing a long note, you know you dont have to, and i recommend stopping but if its a natural habit then nvm that

[vrtrahex]

Most people who Alt. strum do that as its easier for them to do it that way. You also notice that he holds the strum bar up or down when there are a pause in the notes too.

[tbird990]

o, well i don't strum like that cuz i dont strum up and down unless im in a fast section

[173067]

Do you have the game on PS2 or the X-Box or

The X-Box 360

[ShockaSlim]

I really want you to look at the model of the guitar and think REALLY hard. You will find your answer.

Hint:

Guitar Hero 1 never came out on Xbox or Xbox 360

[173067]

Yes it did I played it on the Xbox 360 and the Xbox before I have Guitar Hero 2 now for the PS2 and I might get Guitar Hero 1 for my birthday this August

[ShockaSlim]

Neither of the Guitar Hero games came out on the Xbox. Guitar Hero 2 came out of PS2 and Xbox 360. Guitar Hero 1 NEVER came out on Xbox 360.

[173067]

Wrong Mr.Career In The Toilet

[SArmstr0ng]

Actually, he's correct. There are no guitar hero games on the original Xbox.

I play the PS2 version.

[173067]

Hi Stretch! just wanted to let you know that "173067" is actually my 8 year old son. He is going to be THRILLED that you replied to him! He has watched your videos for months & finally got his Guitar Hero 2 game. You are his hero & you're a big deal around our house! You have a real gift for comedy too! He does that pose where you stand on one leg with the controller & then he falls into a chair & says "Oh Shit!" He's always talking about how he is going to be as good as STRETCH ARMSTRONG!!

[zooofazie]

guitar 2 on the 360 has more songs but their worse!!!! ~%)

[CyrixSG]

Even Rats is on GH1, and GH2 for 360 has the same songs as the PS2 version, with a few added and downloadable packs that add some GH1 songs. Dead!, Possum Kingdom, and The Trooper are AWESOME songs, and playing songs like Bark at the Moon with GH2 mechanics rocks as well. I'd almost prefer the 360, if not for one problem. GH Encore 80's Edition is only confirmed for PS2 right now.

[kyuii]

What's the name of the song at the beginning?

[SArmstr0ng]

"Sit Down, Stand Up" by Radiohead.

[illpetill436]

ur ok but honestly i dont know where u live and wut uve seen but im better than u along with the majority of my friends

[SArmstr0ng]

I don't doubt that. There are a lot of people that are better than me. I dun really care. :)

[173067]

Even Rats you asshole

[danishere710]

hows ure b ball cereer comin

[katz1977]

O.K im good but not that good,ive got like 6 friends,you must have 1 by being that good,you must practice 24/7

[SArmstr0ng]

Not really. I barely get to play the game because I'm so busy with other stuff.  I'm just naturally pretty good at rhythm games.

[1xXJoshXx1]

Damn Man That Was Awesome

[wterwizard]

nice! still ure numba 1 fan!

[FrndofFoamy]

DAMN!!! I thought u made a 97% on this song. last night i made a 98% and......CRAP!!!!!!!!

[Rashno]

:( i can't seem to get the song anywhere.

[thekatz35]

itunes music store

[MATTHEWGU4]

SArmstr0ng what video capture did you use? Or I heard you recorded your vid with a VCR via Video Tape. If you did how'd you put the vid on your computer. DV?

[exploadingpenguins]

very nice, thats probably the only song on guitar hero that only feels right if you play it on expert, and yes it's my favourite too. only got a five star on it twice though.

[Rashno]

Thanks!

[badnewspanda]

the song at the beginning is Raindrops - Radiohead

[Rashno]

I really want to know what that song is called it's an awesome tune! The intro music that is.

[sallahoohoo]

dude you good. even though you may not be the best out there, and u missed some notes(but pretty much same with everybody so it doesn't matter) your still the coolest guy to play guitar hero.

[FrndofFoamy]

wat song was that at the beggining of the video?

[NikkiPoo1234]

LOL... HAHAHA OMG. "Salute Your Shorts" xD HILLARIOUS.

[i69onmyself]

i love sarmstrong and his vids but i wanna learn how to make them anyone got a link or guide or something on how to make guitar hero vids if you do either reply or send me a message please

[FrndofFoamy]

u know, there's this guy "tehwood" or some gay name like that who says he's better than u on this song! His videos called "even rats expert (im better than SarmstrOng). He's a pathetic jerk! And besides, ur better than him anyway, u could kick his ass, and ur taller than him!

[SArmstr0ng]

lol yeah, I've seen his video. He did get a better score than me (but so did about a million others). I didn't say anything to him, but he apologized and said he wasn't trying to talk trash...so it's all good with me.

[FrndofFoamy]

ya he did say he just wants competition but still, there's no reason for him to insult u! & everyone who watched that video thinks so to. Trust me ive looked at all the messages, u have a lot of fans including me.

[combova92]

awesome job(Y) lol your intros are awesome

[clubdiamond]

ur one of the best GH players I've ever seen! Good Job and I hope u make some more GH2 videos. Keep up the Awesomeness!

[FobRocks9]

hah salute your shorts...good times..lol

[LoneShoe22]

Sorry for the second post, but I'm just saying sorry for the spelling errors in my last post.

[LoneShoe22]

I thought I was at pretty good at the song, but u topped my est score my like 40,000 points. I played last night nd got 248,000, 98%, and a 212 note streak. You probably practice a lot though.

[kello4567]

u r my guitar hero! u made me buy the game , thnx!

[joeya103]

this song is so frustrating to try to FC, since i always seem to mess up near the end of the song.

[omgsoraishot]

Three words; I LOVE YOU.

That's actually 5 words^^^ all together, but still, I love you on GH!.

[eyepoo]

Now here is a guitar hero with a sense of humor.

[Kooly1]

haha Salute Your Shorts

[lillenicky]

ive already gotten 100% on that song but those other songs are rad

[icannever4get]

Salute Your Shorts was a good show.

[JimBunn]

I'm not a fan of that type of music but I love that song for some reason.

[bcbird]

I've seen better, but that is still really good

[Ilovekratos]

Oh I love this song and you played very well like you always do in your other videos. Great Job man.

[theguitarinator]

out of all of the gh vidoes for some reason this is my favorite.... maybe its the song, anyway great job!!

[fuyou11]

nice man youre prety good ,ive scored 138,593 on the breaking wheel!!!

[BabyAsprin]

oh you do do it with the breaking wheel...? you sir are a god

[BabyAsprin]

psha... Even I can ace that song...Do it on the breaking wheel and I will bow to you.

[Hackelmania13]

Uh...he already did buddy.. :D

[1legmidget]

niice man, but i say gh is one thing, i stick to my REAl axe, u seem to have decent finger control, i bet u could play real guitar pretty well =)

[Aliffer]

dude i wish i was anywhere near ythat good. i csuck so bad at this game but i love it

[Decon87]

Its funny cause half the kids that leave comments saying that you suck probably cant play real guitar for shit.

[TehCream]

Man, im sooo wanna get this game, If it has anything by Rammstein on then i'll go out for it today!
