Andy Timmons Queen "You Take My Breath Away/Bohemian Rhapsody"

[@rohitmukerji7208]

The god of tone...

[@daviddeavenport8168]

He truly is!

[@AweeRB26]

Totally agree.

[@CroneRaven1810]

Eddie van halen and Andy Timmons have my favorite tones

[@jonatanroberts6286]

@@CroneRaven1810 no solo el tono, el gusto para arreglar, las frases mas lindas que existen....

[@markmcmullan3351]

The one thing I think let's his playing down is his tone . Un dynamic and too compressed . Also the look of those pickups fuck that .

[@cesardmora86]

Just one man can play ALONE that complex song and sounds great. That's why Andy Timmons is my guitar hero!!

[@efgdf]

Andy is the Tommy Emannuel on electric guitar. Without no words!!

[@mertgunes9854]

Tommy Emannuel is the Tommy Emannuel of the electric... But point taken

[@klfaregonnarocku]

Tommy plays some amazing electric. Just doesn't these days.

Where do I click on a thousand times likes ???? fantastic, perfect ... andy timmons takes the guitar to another level of galaxy ... :)

[@masque1313]

One of the most incredible things I’ve seen in a long time. Andy’s talent and ability to do what he does and take this incredible composition and represent so much of it by himself is beyond epic. One of my all time favorite musicians covering the greatest band of all time. A match made in heaven.

[@carlodevivomusicontent2138]

Incredible!!! Love your playing Andy, you've been pure inspiration for me since Electric Gypsy. Thank you

[@leoosiku]

Check out Edgar Cruz playing this tune as well. Another great rendition.

This is the best version for one guitar of the song Queen. Andy Timmons made a very cool arrangement.

[@ronaldvlcek9022]

The best guitar work I have seen in my life.

[@TedlinksChannel]

Ronald Vlček amazing huh. And one single take. Crazy talent.

Best Queen cover ever. Andy Timmons is one of the GREATEST!

Andy, you should do an instrumental Queen album like you did with Sgt Pepper's.

Yesssss

It was like a beautiful tribute to Freddy mercury.

[@SashaZ]

One of the most beautiful things I've heard in a long time...

[@lucasjackson22]

andy andy, i loved

[@benporter6576]

Holy Buh-jesus. He is hands down my favorite player for bringing vocal lines to life in a guitar solo such as this. Just on a whole-nuva-level

[@Steve-ih7dg]

There are so few guitarists who can play the instrument in such a way as to bring vocals to life. Andy is a master at doing so. The thought he puts into where on the fretboard he is best placed to be at any point to capture the vocal characteristics he is emulating; how he picks each note; and then there's his use of equipment to serve the song. Wonderful, wonderful stuff.

[@anthonykiza]

Damn... This is so good. the tone, feel, the sound, the voice. I'm speechless... The mighty, Mr.andy timmons, everyone!!!

[@RandyWillcox]

Brilliant! Andy Timmons Plays A Night At The Opera! C'mon! You know you want to! 🙏🏻

[@adamfstewart81]

Queen and Roy Thomas Baker: "Bohemian Rhapsody has so many parts and harmonies - we almost wore out the tapes with overdubs - it took weeks to record all the parts - You just can't do all that in a day..." Andy: "Hold my beer..."

[@davidbaker6295]

Great comment, Adam!

I knew that.I just didn't know how to express it like you did.Well said.

[@sasmitha8446]

Of course creating it and recreating it are two completely different things. But by God, Andy Timmons just blows me away everytime I listen to him.

[@SixStringAlliance]

This is beautiful Andy.. congratulations on a fantastic video and a beautiful performance

[@MehediHasan-mz4vd]

178 haters!..may god bless their music

[@alfonse777]

Thank you Andy!!!

[@MirkoBjelica]

Since the movie came out, popularity of the Bohemian Rhapsody became enormous among musicians and many made covers (e.g. Generation Axe), but non of them did it like Andy. This is by far the best published rendition of this tune, truly emotional , 100% correct and without unnecessary improvisations. Not to say that it is a fully guitar "A Capella" without backing tracks to fulfill gaps. No gaps with Andy :). I like the background too, Vox with broken speaker cover, Marshall with half missing logo...all in all, perfect video!

[@minkorrh]

Only Andy Timmons could do this song justice in an instrumental way. Way to go Andy!

[@bobbyruggs808]

Amazing arrangement and the tone is so sweet. Andy is incredible.

by far the BEST instrumental version of this song.PERIOD!

[@chris33513]

and the Grammy for Best Guitar Instrumental goes to AndyTimmons, at least if i would be on the jury. I was lucky enough to catch Andy at the Iridium in Manhattan 2-3 years ago. Only about 40-50 people. like a private concert and an audiophile guitar sound experience. This here is another signature piece. Thank you Andy for this "christmas gift". Feel free to re-record with band and overdubs and everything your pedal board can add to a magical guitar experience.

[@andrewlaw5628]

For some 30plus years I have been a fan.....its insane how this man continues to push himself as a player!! He can shred with best of them, has chops to take a tree down, writes and sings.....he probably is well versed in theory yet never sounds like a robot( yes, I more than imply certain players versed in theory, sound like machines....lifeless and void of soul) Andy Timmons has tone and phrasing and a melodic sense that is second to none. Brilliant version of an epic song!! One guitar player showing what one man playing a guitar can truly do!!!

[@khamkaiarolim2705]

He don't need drums or any backtracks Such a skilled player❤️❤️❤️

Absolutely incredible, Andy! Perfect arrangement and performance! So easy to take for granted just how hard this kind of 'chord melody' approach is - using mainly the pick like this.

Good night, this man has a gift from God! Very talented. I have never heard such a great version of this song (I heard Vai, Malmsteen, Wylde, do this song but Andy does it way better, classy and tastier than those 4 guys ever could! Plus, he does it by himself! And does a superb job! As much as I respect Vai and those guys, Andy has a completely unique style of playing) Had no idea you and Brian May use a coin to play, ha. May you use your gift from God to glorify the Almighty!

[@AccuracySpeaks]

Without a doubt, he is brilliantly gifted, and a very hard worker!! I think Andy is simply giving Brian May a nod using a sixpence. I have some signature picks that Andy actually sent me, and they're DunlopTortex Jazz 3's.
