  • I like everyone critiquing instead of just listening to good music. Grow up all of you.

  • great.

  • You tried to do some thing new thats good , but your style is too much boring ............

  • This just seems to reinforce the idea that prog=just take a song and put in lots of time signatures, which it fucking isn't.

  • 0:38 orgasm face

  • aweeeesommmeeee

    

  • i think i love you XDDD

  • @aru5 I'm speechless... is it a joke ?? XD Thanks anyway !! =)

  • @juanmvalero u welcome...seriously...its not joke XDDDD

  • nice steve vai custom

  • Holy shit. Sounds unusual, but cool!

  • wow this video is great.... i mean the time signatures are just awsome.

    i finally found someone who has a tast of altering time signatures.

    i thought im alone... rock on

  • which guitar ?

  • Fag

  • the tone was very difficult haha

  • Canon naked

  • suena bien! pero le cambiaste el tiempo a la pista ... era mejor la original ...

    igual suena bien!

  • illo, bonita versión...me gusta. Rocanrol, tío!

  • this is realy realy great, her is doing perfect specialy at the part is becoming slower (1:27)

    THUMBS UP

  • i like you dude yeah

  • ready now I hope you understand, I called you gay butts and you should make another video that's okay

  • Way to ruin a beautiful piece of music by conforming it to such a trendy, trashy genre.

  • muito tocos esse cara tá bom de ir pra puta que o parrivel esse gay

  • @tiagocreed I don't know what you said, but I saw gay. So, agreed.

  • Who cares about the musicality of the compositon. At least it's in X/X. Yes, I am that ignorant that I don't spare any time to find the time signature. I'm all for innovating and shaping how music sounds but if you change the time signature don't make it sound like shit.

  • What are the black strippes that you put on your guitar??? Electrical Tape???

  • Cool rythm you Dream Theater/ Rush dude.

  • This is pretty good. A very interesting take on it, to say the least.

  • got comfused whit the rythm 

  • buen squeal!!!!!

  • fuck the first 70seconds. the rest is fuckin epic! :P

  • If you close your eyes at times you here the next eddie van halen. then when you open them, he is still there

  • Simply AWESOME! I wish I had half of your skills.

  • 1 word...KICKASS thumbs up

  • Genial la canción y... dioses! Me he enamorado de tu guitarra!

  • would be good if the melodies fit the time signature.

    doesn't matter what you want the point of prog to be. you might have gotten the point just fine, but that doesn't mean it sounds good that way.

  • This really doesn't sound like Canon at all :/ you shouldn't change the time signature.

  • damn good. you got all point of prog metal. odd time signatures good time changes. Kept me going from start to finish. great work

  • awesome......it`s different with the others......very nice i love it....

  • intro is (3+4)/8

  • the lack of consistency doesnt go well with the song. you seem like a good guitarist but your cover of this song isnt very good.

  • nice guitar.....

  • ^o^ Alavado seas, se escucha increhible!!

  • pretty good technique, but the arrangement needs a little revision, "i think".. You did a great job in arranging the time signatures, but it in my opinion i think you need to work on the transition, cuz the transition sounded kinda plain for me. Just stating my opinion here. Good luck

  • loved it, much like john petrucci playing, awesome man ! i love dream theater, and dream theater too me are the king of proggressive metal, so i know good prog when i hear it :)

  • Comment removed

  • great progressive cover. definately see some petrucci influence.

  • dude this is nuts man awesome. dude all of you who think this is bad are retarded and obviously know nothing about music

  • Comment removed

  • @RalphTheSpanker

    explain "mr. iv'e taken all masterclasses of all kinds of music and i get paid to give lessons of classical music"

  • Wow, progressive metal does not mean raped music. Sorry to break it to you. It's not prog just because you mix up the rythm.

  • @Oscarnvh, he didn't mix up the rhythm, he just used a different time signature. that's what makes it progressive.

  • @inferiorJK no it doesn't. prog rock has 4/4 too. He did change the rhythm, even if it was by changing the time signature. Makes it sounds incoherent. To change to time signature, the tune has to fit the time signature. This melody doesn't fit. Different time signatures doesn't equal prog.

  • @inferiorJK No, you are totally wrong. It's not progressive music just because you change time signature. As Lastchild90 said, the tune does not fit the time signature, therefore, it is shit.

  • @Oscarnvh agreed

  • you are that juan valero?:))..a icame to this vid accidentally and when i looked at your nick i realised that i have your album melodic fantasy earlier compositions..nice playing:)

  • It almost sounds like Petrucci. Nice work.

  • 1:50 awesooooooome

  • awesome 5/5

  • This is so wierd, but i like it =D

  • the people who rated this bad probably never heard of progressive music.

    it's really cool! and you're really good

  • I give 5 stars, because i know how to play prog, and you nailed it:D

  • Guy needs to play his phrases in the right places.

  • @stuartdevil and wear pants

  • I dont think people who comments bad on this understand how hard it is to play like this >.^

    Well i apriciate it VERY much. This was awesome dude, keep up the good work!!

  • Interesting style, I like it.

  • Gotta remember guys, this is a "Prog" cover, I never really knew Progressive metal to stay within time signatures even when it's supposed to. I think it sounds good

  • thanks!! finally one guy that understand more compasses than 4\4 =)

  • @juanmvalero what compass would you call this?

  • @juanmvalero what time signature is this?

  • nice guitar....but bad player.hell,you suck

  • ur melodic creative really sux ur technic so good

  • wow, im not usually one to post negative comments about videos, but... wtf dude... fucking up the time signatures so badly that you make the song sound like Yngwie did it while on a bad acid trip is not making the song any better... maybe just go a little less "math" metal and play something audible. my ears will never forgive you for this.

  • MAN KEEP UP THE work bro forget these haters, bunch ah mean assholes. anyways it sounds cool i especially like the last 50sec

  • crap

  • sounds like this is a fucking scratched cd ....

    i think its pretty bad in my opinion ...

  • its called stacked signatures, your pretty dumb in my opinion

  • good thing its only your opinion ...

    don't change the fact that its fucking

    bad ... your an idiot an thats not my opinion

    have a good day ok :)

  • Oh, also, I would've kept that genius time signatures that you did this in, but I think it'd be cool if the drum patterns were different. That arpeggio part was perfectly rewritten though.

  • This definitely isn't for the weak minded. I personally liked this version a lot better, while the original is pretty overrated. I kind of wanted to hear a lot more notes thrown into it with an even tighter feel, though. Shred it, man.

  • Good playing!

  • original indeed and l love it

  • 1:21 nice

  • Nice guitar, a little too many come-ons and suggestive winks at the camera though :P

  • haha nice

  • is the cover of the original Canon of Pachelbel (is not a cover of Jerry C)

  • 1:24 is to die for

  • Qui est le cretin qui ne le connait pas

  • lol are you wearin any trousers??? lol good skills

  • wow this is awesome! what tim sig is this in??

  • wow the prog feel is absolutley amazing, and you really nailed it on the guitar

  • i didn't like this version, but i respect your great skills !

  • this version is kind of lame though.

    cool idea.. but the overall melodies you came up with and stuff are just rather.. boring..

  • cool guitar

    EVH paint job on Steve Vai Jem

    cool cool

  • he is wearing pants just grey light 1s

    lmao

  • you did great man.. nice arrangement. 5 stars.

  • you rock bro 5/5 btw i also play this song hope you could check it out....

  • Prog = No pants ?

    I don't thimk so

  • dude no pants lol oh and your dick is small lol

  • He's not wearing any pants!!!!!!!!  HAHAHHAHA!

  • it sounds like a skipping cd

  • Yeah bro hardout aye?

  • I think you have misunderstood the concept : prog

  • eww is he wearing pants?

    lmao

  • its ok/good but i don't think it's that great i guess.

  • I dont see what is 'progressive' about this? Steve Vai has been doing this neo-classical stuff for 20 years - You are without doubt a great player with good 80's style techniques, but not making any real progress or doing anything new to my mind

  • I think you may have taken 'progressive out of context.' The song is progressive in that it flows from section to section rather than going in a verse-chorus-verse-chorus form. True, it isn't the best example, and I may be interpreting what you say incorrectly, but it seemed like you thought progressive to mean making progress in the evolution of a genre rather than the piece itself progressing through a number of unique sections.

  • i think it gets progressively worse lol jus kiddn

  • Dude....What Time Signature did you arrange that song to be in? I'm surprised you don't get confused by it...seems soo out of beat and complicated, kinda like Dream Theater's stuff lol...but hey your an awesome guitarist wid a hella different technique...And I really like you guitar dude. Good job on that harmonic squeal

  • love it, since you know ^ im into prog. this is really awesome 5/5

  • You fucking rock \m/

  • I love love the section that starts around 1:09.

    With that being, and although i like a lot of prog bands and understand what you are doing with this video, it's hard to make sense of what's going on at times.

  • I didn't understand your music (???)

  • That's fucking awesome. The people who rated this badly don't understand music theory and what this guy's doing.

  • don't worry my friend, this video couldn't be appreciated by everbody, so people that don't like odd time signatures would say that my playing sucks or comething like this...

    Anyway it's great that few persons enjoy my song and comment, THANKS A LOT !!!

  • It isn't that I don't appreciate, but in many places notes just seem out of place and seems more of an improv session. There were some cool parts and you seem like a really good guitarist(a lot better than me) and I'm not trying to dis you or anything, but I think it just didn't work.

  • GREAT!!

  • i think itæs really cool........ but it sounds like a marry-go-round- (or what you call it)

  • ????

  • i would say that sucked ass. you play really good, but cmon, this has nothing to do with canon rock?

  • same key and some parts are from thye song canon by pachabel

  • is that fret board scalloped?

  • prog doesnt necessarily mean weird, hehe, but this definately was both :)

  • rofl philippaps44 ... that's what I was thinking.

    Nice playing.

  • where are the fucking pants?????????????????

  • he wear pants it's the color.

  • if i hadnt already been layin on the floor i would have fallen on it! that was the fuckin shit man!!!!!!

    i used to play the black n whites then when i picked up the guitar i started lookin for a decent version of this to play with, ill definatly be visitin the lesson!

    thanks for a great vid. T.

  • U fuckin suck, I didnt even recognize tthe song. I'm sure youre very good at guitar but do classical music a faavour and leave it the fuck alone

  • nice pinch harmonics

  • your awsome at guitar i know that much ur my fav instructor next to kris but this was kinda of a fail

  • awesome, i love it!

  • Your a really good guitar player but this version of canon in D, is not good at all.

  • can i have backingtrack?

  • nice playing, what guitar is that? im guessing its an Ibanez something?.

  • Some RG.

  • in fact its a van halen-ized jem(steve vai signature guitar) by ibanez. im pretty sure it is:)

  • is a ibanez JEM 555 WH the "cheap" korean version of the steve vai signature japan Jem 7VWH.

  • ur like skipping lots of notes :S and therefore it just sound weird...

  • its prog lol :P

  • Sounds like shit. You still rock, but I'd love to see you do the real canon.

  • the timing is so different. it sounds like shit. but nice playing.

  • that's progressive for ya, strange time signatures and awsome tempo changes

    i love this version

  • Your really good!

    The only problem is that you are kinda far from the original melodyof this canon.

  • tempo estranho!

  • thts wicked sick guitar

  • You can deffenitely play guitar, but please do me a favour: Don`t pose so much. Thank you, keep on rocking !

  • Bravo Juan! Its me, Young guitarist, rock on man :D

  • Bravo-Encore

  • did u make that guitar or did u buy it like that cuz it's amazing

  • You lost most of the melody, sadly.

    Nice effort though.

  • Mu bueno tio

  • ja muy buena juan! sigues impresionando a todo aquel que logre ver tu tecnica y escuchar vuestras piezas. :)

    Felicidades de nuevo por eso del nuevo cd...justo ahora lo estoy descargando!

    Gracias amigo!

  • Que grande JuanMi, eres un freaky!!

    Me ha encantado!!

    un abrazo, a ver si nos vemos pronto!!

  • This is the guy that asked for the help in the myspace message, Alexander, and the timing had me thinking that you couldn't pull it off but FUCK you did great and beautiful. Cannon is my favorite song and you did an awesome rendition of it.

  • you sped up the backtrack? risky but daring...with marvelous results...

  • Juanito tío, eres el puto amo!

  • muy buena campeón, tocas de vicio :)

  • Joer Juan:una jem 555 ,scalopped,con el rollo EVH,me encanta la guitarra.Le acabara gustando ala paisana,haha.Muy bueno el tema ,el tempo ,y airefresco pal canon.Fakingreit!!

  • Loved it.

    Are you wearing pants?

  • hard to see...but I could see a zip...and some pockets...

  • Awesome ^^

  • Muy grande viniendo de ti, como no :)Ya imagine que estaria currado, como te dije en el overforo

    Un saludo por estos lares tio! Nos vemos!;)

  • it's well and good re-interperating the track and putting a new flavour on it but in my opinion their were times when you can't tell what your playing so i think it's a bad version. but your one hell of a talented player

  • Well done mate!! :D

  • loved it, your tempo change is incredible. (luv the sweep picking too)

  • Cool dude.

  • Imo not so good than speedy metal arrangment but this is veeeery good too. And bit harder. =)

  • great man i loved it 5*
