[chickenfinger90]

this is S I C K

[MisterSheePz]

i know its taboo to campare artist, but i got a feeling the beginning it the song was a little don alder-ish and then kinda andy mkcee-ish. is it just me, or did anybody find some of their "voices" in the song just a little bit.

[theblindoc]

Great piece of music!

[hugenoodles]

all i have to say is...... BUTTER :D

[kajus222]

i fall in love!

@rpoland o man wish i knew about this before a little late to make plans now.....this sucks :(

[LunaticAssnGotzGame]

I just saw Andrew in concert last friday at the Small Halls festival on PEI... just as good live as you'd expect if not better. I got to talk to him after the show too, he was a perfect gentleman. We need more musicians like this (PS, when he played this song... uhhhg, I came)

[MrTimmyyyyyyyyyyyyyy]

yeah

[Rightcheous]

is this in standard tuning?

[staffansvahn]

@Rightcheous DADGAD

[Rightcheous]

@staffansvahn should hav known this would be in some crazy tuning. thanks anyways!

[MutatedDingo]

Someday before I die I will learn this song

[wdchrismon]

Best of luck.  Post it when you do.

[bartman138]

makes ya wana kiss d ol blarney stone dont it? go Andrew go

[pithor]

Complex and beautiful at the same time.

My guitar hero. Mr. Andrew White.

[UltrasHaie]

aelad99

i think both :D he's a nice player and the guitar costs 3500€ (ca. 4500$)

[gitarrefish08]

very very good

[Aelad99]

that guitar looks, sounds, and acts like a very expensive guitar...

[samahnord]

@Aelad99 or maybe he just plays it well;)?

[espectaculardavidrcq]

Fantastic!!!

[jerinos3345]

u gota wonder why nobodys made a cover of this song yet?

Darn gud song

[shizueleven]

@jerinos3345 Way too epic for any amateur to play it.

[sophie77773]

WOW

[benjaminjebotebog123]

O_O

[keebearfull]

fingerwork such that I think I'm seing a miracle.

[ElliotTheMoose4]

1:14 is pure magic

I love how he makes his harmonics flow so well within his music

[staffansvahn]

Dear Andrew,

This tune is so wonderful! Your right hand is magic!

I am practicing night and day to get that fluidity too, but I guess I have another 32 years to go....

Just to say that you are a great inspiration to me.

Hope to meet you one day.

Best regards

Staffan

[EIYH58]

These Yamaha have a sound rich & beautiful..... !

[giggidgdg]

Eccezionale..........

[dudewithapple]

this guy is amazing. knows no theory. just like me. i will one day be as good as if not better for its my dream!. to be able to play with him would be amazing!. hopefully this dream of mine comes true!

[LassieRF]

The more I experience it, the stronger my conclusion, that this is something I can righteously enjoy alot, becomes.; The combination of Andrew White and Instrumental pieces of music, of his own(+partly his own(fx. feat. great Brendan Power)) composing!!!

[SJD87]

id love to see this guy play country guitar on a telecaster or something lol

[moviewayz]

wow.

[irishguy331]

the action on this guys guitar must be amazing for him to tap and it sound that clear

[sltleovyed820]

these fingerstyle guys i think generally play guitars with a very low action, it is amazing

[AUMTHEGO]

Absolutely wonderful!

Thank you!

[jeroenguitar]

i am absolutely speachless its mind blowing

[jcfegz]

Ba boom ba boom.

Nice hat, songs nicer tho

[MrMynamedoesntmatter]

You're kidding right? You may not be able to find some as good as this guy on youtube, but there's quite a few Irish guitar players that are at least as good as this guy. I've found guitarists at this level in some of those foreign music cd's they sell at target. Funny, right? This guy is damn good though, can't argue there. You can tell this guy took some guitar classes at some point. His style seems really classical. It seems there isn't one guitarist on Candyrat that isn't amazing. Goodstuff!

[D0g63rt]

Unique boutique

[DanielGillismusic]

This guy actually has no formal training at all and knows NO theory at all. Crazy actually... He says he's the racecar driver who doesn't know how to change the oil!

[pilara2000]

he is using a compressor they add sustain

[xxtHeENDfOrUxx]

HOLLY SHIT ! ! ! so sweet !

[imti0111]

hw the heck tht little flick sustains tht long!!

[Joeyupdated]

its a harmonic note. theytend to sustain for a long time

[moviewayz]

WOW! thats godlike.

[staffansvahn]

I come back to this tune once in awhile and it always blows my mind!

Andrew, you are a genius...

Take care

Staffan

[hammettfreak1]

opening to 0:35 is neat. the sustain that guitar has when he hits the harmonics is amazing. curious as to what it would sound like on bagpipes. sounds like that was kinda what he was going for to me anyways

[psychokong64]

SON DAMN! this is amazing! especially the beginning he was finger rapin the guitar....in a good way :P

[heylookamonkey]

shit son! You've got some intense skills!

[daveybox2]

don't usually comment on YouTube but this is trully beautiful! Exemptional!

[julieetbenjamin]

merveilleux !

[suhrshredder23]

hells yeah, now this is an irish anthem!!!!!!

[weeturd]

wow, that guy has got some serious skills. He produces so many different sounds on the geetar and makes it looks easy :L 5 stars ^^

[Nulty16]

To my untrained eye, theyre not hammer ons , they're fret picking. If i'm wrong, im wrong and the guys got stone fingers.

[TheRiff93]

unbelievable hammerons on steelstrings

[dirtyminded604]

beautiful harmonics! very unique sound...

[sympatic9815]

tank you holiday

[HalifaxRealEstateGuy]

holy shit, thats good

[iDropDeadSeamus]

lol at 1:51 theres a snap and hes like wtf..?

[makkawy]

@iDropDeadSeamus lolz...he's a true master though..didnt stumble for a sec!

i imagine with a snap like that my guitar would be probably be in the air ! :D

[Goof995]

@iDropDeadSeamus It's just Andy McKee showing his whip.

[littlecat34]

nuts!

[Baeldius]

You're just awesome!

[KesherMedia]

AMAZING!!!!

If you're ever in San Diego and want a free live recording (gratis on me) just give us a call.

[ArianRohani]

Anyonw know the tuning?

[HariKhalsa]

DADGAD

[Salsahaj]

Absolutely brilliant!

[BjerkeRobin]

Andrew is baller!

[danielc121162]

Incredible. Make me think of  Leo Kotke. Must be an open tuning sounds like an Open G tuning. Absolutely love it

[rassakawa]

makes me remember of klonoa...shauhsuahsua

[noncicredo200]

you are the best!

[JeBalaMusic]

divino maravilhos

[makeitandskateit]

a real irish jypsy style!! Love it!!

[jOnizoid]

kind of sounds like a bag pipe haha

[The12Bane]

its a great song, but that is not "real irish jypsy style" its new alternative, you would not hear any classic Irish tunes like this

[jacob285]

Werry nice .. using awesome and Play Awesome.. :P

i really like your playing/singing... put some more vidioes in

[SilentStoner]

great technique

[JGomezabino]

incredible!

[gunchibaiyya]

After 1:49 there is a sharp sound which got you distracted for a moment, but you you did not even twitch. You are pro.

[The12Bane]

when your in the zone like he is its hard to get distracted.

[shomershabbos420]

Amazing harmonics..

[drisc]

Hey Andrew, nice to see you plastered all over youtube!!  Proud of you.. from your second favorite fiddle player in the maritimes... HAHA! A.D.

[GuitarArt]

Muy bueno!!!!!

[mmmhm234]

in all honesty the best guitars ive seen as of late are avalon guitars.

[stringerdanman]

What does that have to do with Andrew and the fact that he plays Yamaha guitars. The best guitars I have seen as of late are Stonebridge guitars.

[ninetysevenford]

larrivee are the best

[jimmypagek26]

i like the guitars from target the best

[stringerdanman]

Esteban guitars from yard sales play better than all the supposed top brands.

[mmmhm234]

it has absolutely nothing to do with andrew white. i was responding to somebody elses comment. and stonebridges are nice to

[HariKhalsa]

Best guitars i've played thus far are breedloves

[tyron666]

pure good music!!! happy st patrick's day to everybody!!! I'll drink a beer tonight paying guitar.

[ohwhataride]

I got a buddy here with me Andrew,I already love your music ,but my buddy says ,"that is the most beautiful and expressive guitar work I've ever seen!" (Glenn Morrow.)

[seameybeag]

Roll on St Paddy's day!!!!

[bartman138]

This is one of those songs that can take you to another place. (Heavenly Places in Christ). REALLY good stuff!!

[Amorel86]

1:03 wow

BEAUTIFUL

[cesarscreamo]

1:50 ... the drummer is a .... jajaj XD

btw FANTASTIC!

[Xtrovert4]

so he can play amazingly and sing...talent at its best!

[RaininRhythm]

and i prefer a taylor or those 2 anyday

[gwkesel]

screw the guitar, if you have skills people will see how you play, not what is your guitar..

[UnnAmEdSilEncE]

My opinion is that they think the guitars play good, that it's comfortable to play, not that it looks good or which one's better.

[MetalAddict247]

It is a Yamaha, you can tell by the headstock.

Yamaha's are amazing guitars.

[przy311]

"why doesn't this amazing video have more views?! >.>

lol "

AGREED

[kansasaxeslinger]

.....wow........speechless....­..

[WdrRlty]

why doesn't this amazing video have more views?! >.>

lol

[sostara]

wonderFULL

[aeast17]

literally brought a tear to my eye... powerful song. what a talented artist you are.

[aeast17]

look of death at 1:51... drummer felt stupid when dropped his drum stick...

[hollowsguitarist]

what?

[joseto24]

hahahahhahahaha nice

[richyo1000]

indeed i do play singletonexperiment! andrew reps yamaha guitars and i'm almost sure this is an l series of some type (going by the headstock), this isn't the guy who makes guitars he's just an extremely nice player of them

^_^

[richyo1000]

I believe this is a yamaha guitar, although i'm not sure which model.

This isn't the same Andrew White as the luthier-I don't think the world would allow one person to have that much skill Singleton Experiment!

^_^

[Pat12391]

the guitar's resonance is great... the guitar's player is unbelievable.

[rdove2893]

So beautiful.

[musicmaker838]

No matter how stressed I am, something about this just makes me drop everything im doing, sit back, close my eyes and smile. Everything feels so much lighter when I listen to it =)

[staplesisgood]

couldnt have said it any better

[rtk14kwyjibo]

just when i think candy rat has sucked up the last of the worlds greatest guitarists, they find another one that i havent seen yet.

[dragunovasta]

this song reminds me that i am a human being and living creature. i feel like i reborn again in my ashes and dust when it stops i go back in there :(

[adrianscally]

I think this may earn Mr. White a few free pints on his next visit to Ireland.

[andrewwhitemagic]

Free pints?...sounds like a deal!..where in ireland? I may be coming over early Dec.

[0Tucker]

How about alabama! nobody from candyrat ever comes here:( prolly cuz im the only fan of candyrat as far as i know here. but you guys need to come for me anyways!

[WdrRlty]

lol, I know right! gah! I wish some of you guys would come around Northern VA, but like 0Tucker said, I'm probly one of the only CandyRat fans in this area, along with my whole family. lol

[CiwiTheGreat]

woooooooo!!!! st.patrick c'mon ireland makes me proud 2 hear dis song

[paratodos]

ammm the tunning for this???

[Guitaract91]

DADGAD

[paratodos]

thanks mate

[magnetoclash]

Absolutely fantastic. This one gets me right in the core of my spine. Lovely.

[nonequoted]

very appropriately named, I get the festivity of it. Very well done Mr White

[VINXXX01]

I had the fortune of seeing Andrew play as part of a Canadian Show Tour (Alert, Nunavut -2007). The show was good and his playing was beyond belief. He played an exceptional set. He is technically as good at his craft as any other guitarist that I know. Cheers Andrew (and Gillian).

[amyshinoris]

very cool. Touch of a master guitar player!

[tomh124]

Just out of interest, is this Andrew White also the luthier who makes guitars for people like Andy McKee?

Would make sense...

Oh yeah, great song too, really picks my spirits up.

[boucherwhite]

NO!

[Goof995]

Yes, he is the luthier who makes guitars for Andy McKee, but not only for Andy, but for several guitarist. He's just a luthier with quality guitars.

[herealone43]

Actually, the Andrew White who makes guitars is a different person. checked it out awhile ago.

[Raziel555666]

Lol,Goof995. Boucherwhite is actually THEE Andrew White that's playing this song! And your trying to correct him!LMAO!

[andrewwhitemagic]

No I am not.

Different A.white

[L0wps]

every day with you is a parade, mr. white. =D

[andrewwhitemagic]

Thanks!

[hotrock410]

He makes it look so effortless. What a display of talent.

[Nosteratees]

Oh to own your hands for just one day, mate.

[andrewwhitemagic]

Playing guitar is not all my hands do.

AND I'd have to kill you for molesting my wife!

[br0wer]

It's totally the hat.

[286027669ceo]

WOW

[Anonymchen]

Seems like they are having a great time at the parade

[BluesBrother93]

Good God his harmonics are fucking awesome!

[jellyfish0987654321]

I personally think that his greatest skill is composing - people can learn to play this with a lot of practice , but you can't learn how to compose!It is truely a really awesome skill , but don't get me wrong - I'm not trying to say that he can't play , because this video shows that he can.I just think that his composing skills deserve more recognition than they get.Unique song , mr White!

[dmacparkour13]

Watch the subtle movement of his right hand to change the tone, genius!

[dangerstx]

seriously... who the hell cares who you "prefer". just listen, enjoy, and shut up.

[woolwichferryagogo]

sorry, i didnt know my comments were the thing you'd be judging when you clicked on an andrew white vid. but seeing as we're throwing judgments around, i think your comments wank. and silly. x

[tombo85w]

i wasn't judging your comment woolwichferryagogo i was replying to what someone else wrote. So either youtube fucked up or you're just a dumbass. i'll give you the benefit of the doubt though.

[woolwichferryagogo]

sorry tombo. youtube must have had a brain fuck there then. go get em

[woolwichferryagogo]

think i might quit guitar. anyone else feel like taking up the spoons after watching this? no? watch some andy mckee or some thomas leeb aswell, and i'll see you at the cutlery drawer

[L0wps]

oh goodness he plays better than i do when he uses only one hand

definitely up there with andy and dufour!

five stars

[archard1]

Anyone know what time signature this is?

[aitaroman]

open g very common with hawaiian slack key

[aitaroman]

open g tuning--very common with hawaiian slack key

[usuckasstitties]

andrew dosnt get as much credit as he deserves. i know damn well hes right up there next to andy and antoine

[Guitaract91]

Nice! What tuning is that??

[usuckasstitties]

uhhh im might be wrong but i think its ECDGAD

[phlip5150]

Hey mwow100 grow up you ASSHOLE!! why don't you put up a video of yourself playing guitar and prove to all of us how "GAY" this song is.

[mwow100]

gay song

[Dabearsryan]
