Buckethead - Running From the Light

[amxar]

Thanks! Kiitos! Tack!

[premier210]

So emotional... I'm still flying high... o:

[SuperFritz666]

9 persons don't understand this music

[amkadiego]

@bucketbotrevenge i wonder how much the world would change =/

[StopRunningKid]

D --> If only this stupid world wasn't so fucking idiotic. I don't judge people on what they listen to, but how a majority can idolize f001s because of appearance mostly regardless of musical ability and the dream of actually e%pressing yourself through the music you create. So many people are scared to get in touch with themselves that I worry about what the future holds. They only want sweet little ear candy songs, not something that e%pands the imagination and unlocks new worlds.

[videomakertje]

@StopRunningKid We live in a scared world man... People are afraid to be outside of the "box" they want to be like everyone else so they don't seem different. Nothing WE can do about. These people just need to get their heads straight again.... At least we still have a healthy brain ;-)

[StopRunningKid]

@videomakertje Yeah man. I just don't get what is so bad about trying to be different. Yeah, people can deny you, but if you are being yourself, then true friends will be there to back you up. It's a win win. You can be yourself and not cover it up and have true friends at the same time that take you for who you are rather than who you pretend to be. People just can't let it consume them. I'm proud to be different and have a great taste in music.

[videomakertje]

@StopRunningKid Yep, you definately do ;-) I love having true friends :D those people on social media calling their 1000 friends real friends are just a joke... From those 1000 people they may seem 4 or 5 of them in RL, thats it. Funny to think about it, those people with the biggest mouth about "different" people usually are afraid the most. Sad sad people :( ;p but well, I'm not them, I dont care about them :D

[FictionLira28]

Whos the girl singing?

[antido]

@FictionLira28 Maura Davis

[TheRisenAthena]

I know it will never happen but, for quite some time, my dream has been to sing alongside Buckethead's playing... *wipes tear*

[ImDeafx]

i wanna fucking take his mask off and french the dude!!!!!!!!!! and im a guy! and married!

[ONLYMINEmeGOLD]

I would go gay for Buckethead.

[ximma91]

Oh my god I would never have thought that a voice with Buckethead's music would have been well ! I was wrong ! <3

[BucketheadPWN]

best guitarist that EVER LIVED!!!

[kailuafan]

JUSTIN WHO? When did a marketing company control what the US heard? It's a sad day when our airplay was used promoting face/body talent instead of musical/artiistic talent. My bad, that day is now. Art takes many forms but the art of making money of other peoples talent never changes. I think the "art " of looking good is over, we should get back to actually apreciating artists!

[videomakertje]

@kailuafan I agree with you completely but it won't happen ;-(

[JoshQ124]

Buckethead deserves all of the praise that the world could possibly give him, and more. He is the single best guitarist I have ever had the pleasure of hearing.

[William1st]

Easily one of the best pieces of music I've ever heard.

[lowlypeasant]

I love this chicks accent when she sings. sounds so great.

[atrickpay11]

according to wiki this features gigi and maura davis..i'm not sure which one is which.

[SkyMiKL]

It's original i love it ! Like all Buckethead's songs ;)

[ricusia]

i absolutely love this track!

[TheDeadPlayers]

Does anybody know how you play the part at 1:04 on drums? I have searched for tabs, but I could only find guitar tabs for all the Buckethead songs.

[maitrekenshin93]

thank god for inventing Buckethead, so i dont have to listen to the crappy hip pop rap shit of nowadays!

[daddyjohnez]

@maitrekenshin93 hiphop can be good, there is just all those new-school lil-wayne, t-pain ect suckers giving it a bas name! 2pac, eminem ect. is really good, u should try them for sure 2pac - changes ect.

[uprightson]

Holy shit? bucket head with vocals!? LoL, Only been listening to him for about a week now though.....

[sunnymuffins13208]

I lost my virginity in a mustang to this song... I thnak you BH. I recomend this as a mood setter.

[universalidiots]

@sunnymuffins13208 shoulda lost it listening to the song mustang lmao

[amjams]

I want another BH and friends album so badly.

[MoeShwan]

Enter the chicken is a fuckin' success!

[Rossh96]

Wow don't you realise buckethead is just a character created by Brian Carroll?

[DorxII]

@Rossh96

i dont see how its relevant to the fact that his one of the best guitarists to ever walk the earth.. because of his past ? are are you suggesting that we reffer buckethead as Brian Carroll ? for once i dont even know if his realy that Brian Caroll guy and even if he is that doesnt lessen his greatness by one bit.

[Rossh96]

@DorxII I never even suggested that it doesn't lessen his talent at all, I was just referring to everyone that was saying 'buckethead is the best guy ever!!!!' etc. I was merely stating that Buckethead is a character that the musician Brian Caroll created.

[DorxII]

@Rossh96

and god is a creation of a cult of lunatics thousand of years ago .. yet so many people worship him..

[mikeguitar41]

@Rossh96 Only his mom calls him Brian. His friends and fans call him by his nickname/character Buckethead, cos that's what he wanted in the first place

[tossula]

hey guys, u know that he is autistic and thats probably why he wears the mask, and why he prefers smaller crowds...its also is probably what gives him this extra dexterity and technical ability...all that aside, he has a unique playing style which identifies him along with that mask and kfc bucket...a legend already

[tossula]

I stand corrected, he might not be autistic....rather have some form of social phobia...who knows...his music still impresses in every way possible..rock on

[Brentypooz]

stupid girl ruins it

[asdfcrow]

@bucketbotrevenge If he wanted that, he would have it.

[bucketbotrevenge]

@asdfcrow true. from where he plays, I think he hates being famous.

[asdfcrow]

@bucketbotrevenge and I like it this way. I love small concerts where it's much more personal.

[Wizbang920]

@bucketbotrevenge I would, but Buckethead definitely deserves more than that chick's....I mean guy's...I men guyck's spot.

[clamXiXam]

I dont think "like" is sufficiant for how much i truely appreciate this song. This is an absolute masterpiece.

[jumpinjoe88]

Wow... Gospel? Amazing.

[violentstuff2]

Amazing...

[KirbyOnCronic]

could've done without the vocals...IMO it takes away from the song.

[colashanacogh]

im starting to fall in love with the cuckoo from hell album or whatever its called

[Buh92]

@colashanacogh That album kicks ass

[stevenhatley]

@colashanacogh the cuckoo clocks from hell if im not mistakein and yeah it rocks

[lonesalcornbug]

i really love this song along with the great people on it.raw emotion everytime i listen to it especially b's work on it.

[JasonBeckerFan]

for far, that voice is just what buckethead needed to make a perfect song. even more, because all of his songs are... perfect

[catinthehat008]

he is using a digitech whammy pedal.....

[eHuans]

I love this song... Hopefully there were a tab for guitar

[MadDogMolenaar]

what technique is he doing to play the electronic-ish thing at 2:09?

[thomasharman14]

i think he natural harmonics the note and turns the volume up as he does it

[SixStringinBC]

Sounds like a whammy pedal or wah pedal with natural harmonics....

[dodo4hire]

might be his 8-bit fuzzbox only a bit cleaned up or something, meaby some wierd ass wah O.o

[orgorgorgorgorg]

@MadDogMolenaar sounds like a synthesizer

[Unknownbmxr]

harmonic and pitch shifter? when i do it it sounds similar

[heisannhoppsann90]

i think he is using a digitech whammy pedal. great pedal i have one myself.

[CssSnake6]

@MadDogMolenaar thats not a guitar, thats probably a keyboard.

[Skinnyjeansskater]

ilove buckhead so much, well atleast this song anyway. im using it for my brand new skate video. its epic. ugotta see it when irelease it. on my page ihave a trailer for the video, the trailer even has the song on it.

[collin292]

no...hes more like jesus' badass uncle

[mr931126]

@BlazedXJuggalo ye

[BlazedXJuggalo]

@mr931126 what did I say? Cause my meessage has too many thumbs down.

[mr931126]

i agree with u , noob

[BlazedXJuggalo]

Is that what I said? Or are you being a troll?

[musichunter15able]

hey people buckethead is a really good guitar player and a great musician but

i want to say something to yung guitar players try to feel the music and create your own music you will feell more freedom and sutisfaction from your guitar

[MrSlaynn]

Buckethead is the reason i picked up a guitar in the first place, and im proud to be able to play most of his songs, i love playing soothsayer, lurker at the threshold 1-4, and this song.

[sufferingindigital]

i wish i had a gutar hero like buckethead when i started playing as a teenager all i could find then was 10 second metallica solos to learn , before the internet was big so finding good advant- garde stuff was pretty difficult .

[carpanthers4ever]

ive been looking all over the internet for tabs for this does anyone have them?

[llSaviourll]

---- "Running from the Light" (featuring Gigi and Maura Davis) ----

He didn't sing the whole album himself, I don't think...as each track obviously featured at least one another artist. And for this song ; it sounds too feminine to be his voice

[CookieHairSpray]

love dis songgggggggggggggggggggggggggg

[crazyrockerady]

the women voices are Gigi's and Maura Davis'

[cyberphilangel]

no T_T...........................­..he isn't.

[blibbyboo]

you mean amy lee cause her voice is the only talent in that band

[6378962ROCK]

well...

[CRACKHORSE123]

that would be fucking gay

[6378962ROCK]

why??

[CRACKHORSE123]

cause buckethead is way too good for evenescence

[6378962ROCK]

i ment with the singer of evanescence.

[ImJTHM]

Fuck you. Wait, what are we arguing about?

[6378962ROCK]

about if buckethead was playing with the singer from evanescence.

[ImJTHM]

Pretty sure he's not, but it doesnt really matter if he is or isnt. anyway

[6378962ROCK]

no you didn't understand,i'm saying that it would be nice singing this song and more the singer of evanescence with buckethead.

[falloutboy0403]

No. Waiting Hare has a good combo going. Keep Serj. Fuck the bike. Eat the girl. Sell the pizza. (4chan joke.)

[Mimignat]

Yep :)

[urabusxrw04]

This is an amazing song imo

[Kenziegh]

Maura Davis, Ejigayehu "Gigi" Shibabaw, Gigi Davis sing this song with Buckethead.

[helodog15t]

who sings it?

[helodog15t]

great song!

[hippi28]

i love this song this is my fave buckethead song with vocals ;) this song givse me chills ;D i love the melody :D

[theblackmanOyeah]

danyel- song buckethead sings in, only released recording of him singing a serious song.

[mrunluckytrese]

well, i guess technically he sings in "I'll Wait" from the same album, but he's just repeating the track name over and over again. And he's talking in General Butterfly and Pezez Monolog.

[sufferingindigital]

he's actully singing here?

[MarieIsLike]

No, Buckethead has a band. This song is from the album Buckethead and Friends; his band includes singers. The singer is female, Buckethead is a guy. ;D

[sufferingindigital]

i know but i thought he might have like a mumble in the background thats hard to notice

[mr931126]

@sufferingindigital hahaha

[blibbyboo]

beautiful song

brings a tear to my eye

awesome video too

good job

[nhammerh]

Excellent! Can anyone tell me what album this is from? One of the things I love about BH is the incredible variety of styles he engages in. Bootsie Collins, GNR, Deli creeps... You could spend a month searching and not hear it all.

[lounaslaatikko]

The album is Enter the Chicken.

[kelsey4444luv]

well i love buckethead and im a girl :D

[Jerrico2228]

Nice...It doesnt matter anyways tho..Buckethead should be heard everyone..It has a touch of everythinq in all his sonqs. Rock on B u c k e t h e a d.!!!

[quintin318]

@kelsey4444luv doesn't matter ur gender, it matters your ear for music... and i'll be damned if this isn't music :D

[MoeShwan]

@kelsey4444luv I think I love you already :P

[primozuado]

@kelsey4444luv MARRY ME!!

[William1st]

@kelsey4444luv

Well, I love Buckethead and I'm a guy! :D

[ibeatingu123]

amazing song

[poisonedHIMbamfan]

Buckethead is amazing and one of my favorite artist

It's weird I havnt met any other girl who vene knows wqho he is xD

[ILOVEAYANAMI]

THE MASCK HAS LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[worshipowa]

the picture in the chorus is the best :D

[ILOVEAYANAMI]

mabe im crazy but dont you see in 3:45 to 3:53 buckethead myling¿?¿?

[worshipowa]

[qwerty7778]

Nah that's just the camera angle.

[ILOVEAYANAMI]

holly fuck this is brutalll is the best theme that i hav listened in this year o fuck

[uidsea]

This is one oy my favorite songs by him. I cant understand what she says sometimes but if it has a backing bucket beat than im cool with it.

[blahblahbleebleeblah]

Recently got into Buckethead. Love this song. Great accompanying vid.

[sailorman18]

Yet another masterpiece...

Buckethead's solo in there is filled with so much emotion, one of the few true musicians left in today's "music" scene

[StephenRTobias]

very well put, couldnt've put it better myself

[DraglideKnight]

Comparing slash to buckethead is like trying to compare mike tyson to chuck norris.

[sk8tngabe20]

and chuck would win every time XD

[Twistchawa]

If we're talking technicality here, Buckethead wins hands down. If we are talking creativity, Buckethead wins hands down. If we are talking writing abilities, Buckethead wins hands down.

[kghsbassboy]

@Twistchawa true indeed true

[RACCOONakaALEX]

buckethead is amazing

[Hozt4r]

I don't give a shit, Buckethead is the best guitar player!!

Buckethead is way better then Slash, Buckethead do these amazing solo's that owns, and i haven't heard anything better then Buckethead!

[twentypigs]

buckethead is a fucking great guitarist...!

[MegaToyy]

Yep I agree the most underrated artist ....aNyway he doesnt need to be a recognized talent or somth...He is wat he is...Great musician.And when you play this stuff loud...you can see people freezing for a second....and that means it has got their souls for while....*****+

[StephenRTobias]

anybody got lyrics to this? i cant understand what there saying. during the chorus i think its something like: ive reached ive reached the timing of light, smite this world in a new way, something something i had

[metalfrede]

I'm weak

My face is turning white

God knows where to lead me

The love is all I have

I'm weak

My face still turning white

As God knows what it is doing

The thought is only of you

Of you

[camerons2]

Her voice is a little shaky, but not too bad. This song is pretty chill, but Coma is a fuckin sexy song. Favorite song of this album.

[PurplePandaEx]

this mans guitar has broadened my emotional range.

this song is so beautiful that it makes me weep

[MixedGFX]

nice video editing goes good with song

[johnnizzle]

chillest song ever

[snipaaking1]

i agrre so much i dont care if it has a girl in it i love it

[johnnizzle]

I love her singing :D

[StephenRTobias]

yea ik, this song would be so much worse with a guy singer. haley williams, lady singer, is like my overall 2nd fave singer second only to trent reznor

[StephenRTobias]

buckethead is the greatest guitarist that will ever walk this earth.

[snipaaking1]

wtf is up with the thumbs they switched em around i tried to give you thumbs up and i clickde thumbs down WTF but ( THUMBS UP )

[smackthat14]

god i love buckethead

[campingoncampus]

wow quattrifinos a dumbass

[flyinganusinthesky]

you are the dumbass

[chronicdelirium]

i dont know why the opening sounds so familiar, is it from any movie or something?

[poptartninja08976]

its weird in the secret recipe dvd theres a pic of buckethead with just the deli creep butcher thing on.

[YEAHBUCKET]

Sometimes he wears the mask but no bucket. Like when he played with the Deli Creeps

[quattrofino]

what are the chords

[xRavioliSumox]

That pattern is pretty common actually.

[ChrisisNOTshort]

I can bet you he didn't wear the mask and bucket when recording with this girl. lol

[quattrofino]

i bet he did

[RomanKrawchenko]

Well who knows, there is a video where he plays without a mask before a gig(Long time ago)

[Slickrick81391]

Before he was buckethead that is.......

[JohnWLennon1980]

I can bet you he DID wear the mask and "bucket" when recording with this girl. lol

You poorly wanker

[noctopussx]

awesome.just awesome. one of my new favorite songs.

[5lug]

runnin runnin runnin!!

[EchoesAndEuphoria]

This is a great song! I love when it starts in with the quiet guitar and soft vocals and yet turns into an almost Evanescence-like shrieking/shredding. Though I don't like the very beginning vocals. :/ I skip to where the guitar comes in. Still, awesome song, and good combination of talents.

[ninjaburger121]

amazing song. great female vocals as well.

[AlexRaven90]

Coma, featuring Azam Ali, and Waiting Here, Featuring Shana Halligan, both from Buckethead & Friends

[yyzworkingman]

Coma is alot better than waiting hare though. Waiting hare sounds to pop-y and a little annoying, BOCTAOE. This and coma are the best female lead tracks.

[Trevelyan]

this theme is awesome, i know theres other song from buckethead that has a female singer, anybody know other one?

[nattie306]

wow the solo is awsome actully the whole song is great can someone please help me find some tabs for this song

[BaconSquishy]

Id like to find the tabs too, if anyone finds it that would be great

[guitarguy7211]

im trying to tab it now. if i get anywhere ill send u what i got

[NeoCornyBrain]

Could you send the tabs to me too? :)

[E3tiger]

I'm trying to tab this to. Il post it on Ultimate Guitar when im done.

[MaggotBrain0]

this is fucking AMAZING...

[drydyboy]

OMG favorite songs EVER!!!

[person11392]

The singers are Gigi And Maura Davis.

And love this song!

[ACDCBoy62]

What band (if any) are they from? They kind of remind me of the guy from the Mars Volta
