Martin - Britains Got Talent 2009 - Episode 7

[jordyblakeley98]

Simons a dick, not everyone can sing like fucking Adele so stfu Simon

[1Golden2Bullet3]

@jordyblakeley98 i know, like 90% of rock singers cant sing! and he was awsome on guitar!!!

[RiffsandBridges]

I think people oversee one important part of music. It does not have to be hard to play. I personally don't care if he was John Petrucci or Kurt Cobain in guitar skill, as long as he can make it sound good, and not be a forgettable piece of music. And that was the thing that made Kurt and loads of other musicians famous.

[miku2906]

he is not that talented, its an easy song to play (including the solo), maybe its the singing that makes him good, i dont know :D but its definatley not the guitar playing

[TheMTalMilitia]

No offense to his talent, but I can play that solo ^^'

[greatestgod]

does simon cowell hate talented people or summit?

[YouSirMadeMeLOL]

i actually agree with simon for once!

[Wongwongwong10000]

I want Simon to play guitar and sing. Simon has no talent and this guy played a really hard Queen song. It wasn't perfect but I think he was nervous.

[fjelde96]

lol, would like to se Simon do that

[ThePanda1598]

Horrendous solo? really?

[soulassasin10]

\m/ i want that guitar 0_o

[skinnydipper16]

OMG HIS GUITAR HAS LIGHTS WHAT A TALENT CONFIRMED FOR BEST GUITARIST IN THE WORLD

[ExtremeRussian]

Simon is a fucking asshole

[TheDinaroTV]

fuck simon

[CarlG0932]

hes solo was class.. simon is one prick if i ever saw one! sorry for the language but thats true talent!

[pablohanc]

His guitar was out of tune!!!

[Azedrez]

This man Rocks! ... However Simon Sucks! X( !

[xPrEzAx]

whats the song playing in the backround at the start?

[AverageGamer12]

@xPrEzAx it's "Money for Nothing" - Dire Straits

[eanielsen123]

@xPrEzAx the greatest guitarist in the world - Mark Knopfler, lead guitarist for Dire Straits. Check out my channel for some of his guitar solos. He is a finger stylist.

[ShaneHeseltine]

you'd think that he'd tune his guitar before he went on.. oh dear :/

[vicxon100]

what's that song in the beginning??

[xV1beZz]

He's not bad it's his vocals that need work

[Unholyhector]

yeah... i mean it sounded Well, but a talented musician? anyone with a delay pedal couldve sound like that

[TheStudio620]

MewMixHD ? Simon Cowell might be easy.. But god damnit! He knows what he is talking about!

[IsaacIsMopped]

Simon doesn't really know music when he put through Joe Mc elderflower or whatever on the x-factor. I despise the music industry.

[51theDuke]

why is his guitar an american flag if he's british

[stitchesofwounds]

Star power when it lit up lol



[jack15gpd]

simon fucking cock sucking mother fucker ! that guy is good at guitar !

[KiddiHasu]

not very hard song to play, dont know why people are saying hes extremely good :/

[gibsondanny]

@KiddiHasu totally agreed

[Squarehead29]

@KiddiHasu They're used to 4 chord radio songs, that's why

[Sakeroz]

and someone is very dissapointed..

[Sakeroz]

every mother tells their son their good at playing guitar even if u can smoke on the water

[Gingerlord01]

hmmm, he can play that song well, i just dont know wether he has the creativity for his own stuff?

[jackmorefx]

1:33 Simon prays Piers:" please I'll make everything you want but please hit that button!"

[MsQueencool]

Simon is pretty right he was awful even I could beat him!!

[69JBennett]

Singing not brilliant but everything else well done! Simon is an arse hole for what he said

[ArianeQube]

that shit ass simon is a lady gaga fan...he can suck my cock, has no fucking idea on what music is....

[Slayerivan321]

He actually nailed it LOL

[9letters2woorden]

whats that song at the beginning of the video?

[freerunninboi96]

@9letters2woorden Dire Straits - Money For Nothing :) Awesome song

[TheCrystalFalcon]

I can see why some of you think that Simon was harsh on this, but truthfully, if you are musically inclined, you'd agree. The singing was mediocre, and honestly, I feel the guitar playing was even worse. The guitar itself was cool though... That's about it though.

[vincentheron]

Singing wasn't bad at all

[bekin1482]

SIMON YOU STUCK UP TWAT! The singing was admittedly bad but the guitar was pretty decent. Stay (sic)

[lp256]

terible like he said thats not talent i was good but not that good

[mattguitarist72]

I wanna beat the shit out of simon cowell for that

[Angryification]

Fuck you, Simone. You have actually managed to reprove someone who actually has talent, just because you think his music won't sell.

[JoaoAndre001]

This is a good example of how to be a Horrible judge. I mean, they reproved him only by hearing the first 5 seconds of power chords.

What were they thinking? "I don't like that guitar so he's off"

This kind of shows should have professional musicians as judges.

[eduman20]

I hope simon dies of breast cancer and aides. Anyone who agress fell free to thumb

[endoTHEOSIS]

Very mediocre...I could play that in about 2 hours...I just might.

[1ruairidh1]

What on earth does Cowell know about guitar playing? How dare he call his playing "terrible" and his solo "horrendous"? The guy has a good voice and plays the guitar well. A normal bloke goes in with no big sob story, gives a decent performance and gets cut to pieces simply because Cowell can't see him bringing in a lot of money and yet any mediocre singer who looks and dresses a certain way and comes with a self-piteous sob story becomes an overnight celebrity! Can't Cowell just die already?

[poshpurplepickle]

Thiis Guy lives near mee *_* .. he comes out and plays his guitar in town. :l

[zaktan415]

I play guitar and this guy sucks, Simon is right :/

[almir185]

@zaktan415 you retard .. you suck at guitar because if you were you good you would know that he did not miss a note , thats how the song is playd you retard

[zaktan415]

@almir185 maybe if you spent less time caling me a retard (which you probably dont even know the meaning of), youd realise that this guy can sing but his guitar skills are simply power chords and a 6 note blues solo.

If you get up there and play "for the love of god" by steve vai you'll know what true talent is. any heavy metal guitarist eats this guy for breakfast.

[88stockmj]

@zaktan415 For a start you're insulting brian may there my friend. And secondly he played the solo perfectly who says he can't play for the love of god, I'm fairly sure he can play as well as most of the 15-16 year olds who can play the song.

[zaktan415]

@88stockmj Its just that Martin's family and friends (and the audience) think he's a guitar god because we can play a few chords and a simple solo. I'm not insulting brian may because he could play much more elaborate solos. If he could play For the love of God he would have played it on stage and wouldn't have played I want to break free.

[88stockmj]

@zaktan415 Well he isn't a guitar god but he isn't a bad player either. You probably wouldn't get through playing for the love of god, I guarantee you there are plenty of 16-17 year olds who can play that song.

[zaktan415]

@88stockmj I can't play for the love of god but i can surely play the song he played.

[pilotoatomico]

I agree with simon

[SwirlyBrokenHearts]

this was fucking awesome, at least, i enjoyed it, simon will never Understand rock music lol

[Alhambrattp]

i bet simon can't play guitar fucking idiot.

[surferboy14lp]

you just got told by simon lol

[MrPocketGuitar]

The singing was worse than the guitar playing? The singing was good, the guitar playing was fine, not great, but much better than bad. Does simon play guitar? no Does simon sing? no

[adamlyons87]

I'm halfway between Piers and Simon. Simon (as much as he is normally 'spot on', seemed to under-estimate how enjoyable this act was - maybe because he buzzed so early and was 'committed')...but equally, I think Piers and Amanda gave it a bit too much praise...."genius"??? nah...not really.

Really good attempt. Much better than I could ever do. Hope you do well. But never going to win BGT I'm afraid.

[SeanCampbell95]

Hi guys

Im entering britains got talent and before i play for simon amanda and piers i have to play for the producers to get through to them , does anyone know if i have to bring my own amp or have any advice?

[MrPocketGuitar]

@SeanCampbell95 Take your own amp , what amp is it though? What kind of music do you play? If its rock, metal, punk, anything hard or "rock n roll"-ey I'd reccomend not entering, forming a band, making an album. and getting the famous the proper way/

[SeanCampbell95]

@MrPocketGuitar , its a white horse stack amp , pretty descent,

Im into ACDC and generaly classic rock , but i can play a variety of music , only realy want to enter so that i can get noticed and hopefuly find it easier to find a band

[MrPocketGuitar]

@SeanCampbell95 Ok cool, id reccomend taking that along then. Hmm I can see your point. Although rock genre bands tend to not watch BGT :) your choice though, but make it more than just some song that everyone knows, make it something impressive and a tip is to make it like the audience has ADD, make it change quite often to keep their attention.

[ribarmilos]

Simon is a pop bitch...Fuck you

[JustARandomGuy95]

It's the song that made people rock out not the guy... Simon is completely right, and what do you expect showing up with a song from Queen and actually singing? No one will ever come close to Freddie Mercury's vocal abilities...

[crt0191]

how did that guitar spark? @_@

[killmeandit]

As a guitar player, and rocker myself, i must say that he is not doing something hard or mind blowing, but Simon is going way, WAY to far! i like him, but i did not love him, but he is not a fag or anything!!

[Cushniee]

money for nothing (:

[TVGuitarcover]

is that an ibanez or a jackson

[Shun101010]

honestly, i could learn that song in less time than it takes to listen to it. and i could make it in my own style. it wasn't that impressive. but good for him that it makes him happy cause that's what it's about.

[MeowMixHD]

Thank god simon is off american idol, now lets get him off every other show

[Taymour77]

i think the only guitarist that would get 3 yes's is marty friedman (=

[zakkwyldesociety]

@Taymour77 Amen

[lego398]

3:06

stop flicking him off!

[Dialceus]

simon should try doing something like that,that was pure talent he was amazing

screw simon,what a cunt

[raniisc14]

I admire British celebration of this kind of stupid act!!

[vgamedude12]

Simon is a fucking cunt. He has no talent.

[KaiserBrandon340]

I guess his family hasn't heard many guitarists.

[pinkhippie135]

he doesnt have a good voice, and his guitar playing is average, there are so many 13 year olds that can play that same thing

[iCantPlayScales]

Can anyone please explain why a Brit has an American flag on his guitar?

[RsGhost1]

@iCantPlayScales For poops and giggles?

[pubuman]

I have a feeling they would buzz Steve Vai on this show (obv not saying this guy is as good as Vai, far from it, but still)...

[chaz9123]

they only X him because they dont like rock FUCK THEM!!!!

[dino88cro]

plays fucking sick but cant sing for shit sadly :D

[HaniiPuppy]

@dino88cro Never stopped Bob Dylan :D

[Shmucko12]

His guitar is horribly out of tune..

[Dja1ex]

unlukky dude her wife looks like shit

[bigrat90]

terrible 

[youheardslipknot666]

SIMON I HOPE YOU READ THIS: YOU'RE A BIG FUCKING FAGGOT GO LICK SOME BALLS! AND TRY TO PLAY THIS FUCKING LIL HOMO DIE

[devildime1]

fuck you simon!!!!

[StevenDeedle]

Hi Simon, I think I can call you an ungreatful, untalented cunt for saying this man is shit, I mean ok maybe you don't like this type of music BUT you can't deny that this man is more talented than you are every gon be, so carry no sitting there in your stupid chair scorning at people just because you don't like rock music or guitars....Simon...has anybody said to you how much of an untalented douche you really are? It's beyond me how you even became famous...

[kyeruu2]

@StevenDeedle Um,, i can play guitar, and, i honestly can tell you this i shit.

[Paolo10692]

@StevenDeedle he became famous by bein a prick to people :)

but i think youre right nonetheless

[ephoratus]

@StevenDeedle He definitely wasn't bad. I think you can even call him quite good. But he is (for now) thousand miles away from being great.

[TRBxJacullaa]

@StevenDeedle mighty stong words and i fully agree with u that guiatrist was awsome he palyed perfect but simon cowel doesnt understand musoc actually he has brought shit music into this world like the lip singers who cant sing its all about looks now but real music is played by proper instruments and real singers i hope simon cowel dies by getting his face smashed in by all the guiatist that still listen 2 good music i hope simon saw ur comment and felt like a real nob my arse he knows all

[hermest99]

@StevenDeedle

Yeah.. no. He ain't in the jury for nothing.

[lucadepu]

[Notokayipromise]

Ironically, his singing impressed me more than his guitar playing.

[LE3ESP]

ibanez :D:D:D:D:D

fender twin :D:D:D:D

[jackgentiles]

I've seen an amazing guitarist who auditioned in London audition for 2010 who plays TWO guitars at the same time and the people really liked it, but the judges have all the excuses not to get through a real (gifted) guitarist on this show unless if you are funny or mediocre. I think they are racist as well cause the guitarist was an Asian.BGT is not really a talent show especially for extremists. That's why you'll never see a great guitarist on BGT unlike Australia and America.

[88stockmj]

@jackgentiles Didn't that guy get through and his guitar not work? Or was that all an act?

[math1703]

he didn't even used bar chords only power chords not realy good

[Woodwind007]

@math1703 dude you expected him to use barre chord on a DISTORTED Guitar?

u don't really know what u're talkin about

[Beqpe]

@Woodwind007 dude, its simon your talkin bout, his iq is lower than the swedish idol jurys is!!!!!!

[LightJeimuzu]

@Woodwind007 It's called a power chord.

[Woodwind007]

@LightJeimuzu I know that power chord is a chord with the root notes and the fifth (and octave)

I'm also a guitarist

But I'm replying to the dude that said

He sucks cuz he doesn't use barre chord

[LightJeimuzu]

@Woodwind007 Oh I see. Maybe he's dumb. Haha.

[HKDrider]

star power

[cerelilqt]

Problem is, people will think someones a good guitarist  because they play a song they heard or some crappy four note blues solo. Hes not a bad singer though.

[Bodhivatsva]

@cerelilqt well he like just played powerchords...

dude listen to fucking Shadow... you'll see the difference very quickly.

[jgm788]

that guitar makes me wanna puke but he was ok

[ScorchinBeats]

Uh, he's not very good. I have to agree with Simon, power chords followed by a Queen solo?

Hmm...

[mashangula]

maybe his singing wasn't the best but he knows how to play guitar !!!!!

[arabmoney11221]

this guy was awesome great job

[xXZecaUchihaXx]

Simon don't know Sh** about guitar-playing

[gatesoftroy22]

Simon = dickhead
