Back to the Future - Alan Silvestri - On Acoustic Guitar - Alvarez Guitars

[@LaKiiqa]

10 years later and it's still my favorite one alarm sound

[@Joeski-doodles]

You have this as a phone alarm? Beautiful

[@lnsullivan422]

Marty, that was very interesting music.

[@gittarman]

The kids are now ready for this.

[@thinklikemike2]

Huge BTTF fan! Hearing this at the end of Back in Time brought a tear to my eye. Need to remind friends to play this song at my funeral. Remember your future hasn't been written yet---no one's has! Your future is whatever you make of it...so make it a good one!

[@patoc2857]

Absolutely bud

[@sagesheahan6732]

Mike Culley GREAT SCOTT! EXACTLY!

[@EVDroid]

Same here

[@mannymarc24]

[@ohiodevildog85]

No Fate but what we make. That is definitely from the wrong movie.

[@Oscar-Lima-4]

Still have to come back to listen every now and then and catch up on the comments. Makes me feel the same way every time I hear it.

[@branscombe_]

same! come back again one more time :)

[@Joeski-doodles]

Still listening to this in 2024, it's a timeless beauty 👌come back as often as is possible for as long as possible 🙏

[@Rosenrkantzer]

If you can get past 3:40 without a surreal experience of absolut wonder and an inner realization that the world used to be far more magical you have either not seen these 3 master pieces or sadly been born after 1980. This interpretation should be placed beside works by giants like Mozart or Bach. Music like this fills people with imagination and hope for the future. Perfection! Thank you!

[@AcousticLabs]

Peter Hedin Bless, Peter, I daily pay homage to Alan Sylvestri, what a treasure. Hope you’re well friend.

[@aaronusgt]

Really well put, dude. This ignites the imagination!

[@baltakatei]

The repeating pattern gives me a headache.

[@Joeski-doodles]

I was born after 1980 AND I have seen all three master pieces. I remember buying a secondhand copy of the DVD trilogy for my 12th birthday. What a time to be alive 🤩

[@KITT089]

After watching the Documentary i had to search the person responsible for the intro music. This is absolutely the best rendering of the theme I have ever heard.

[@AcousticLabs]

+kit8089 So glad you saw the film, friend! Thanks for finding me!

[@mattcarlson12]

Had to come listen after watching the Back In Time documentary! Amazing rendition!

[@AcousticLabs]

+mattcarlson12 Ha cool! Where did you see it?

[@mattcarlson12]

+AcousticLabs on iTunes! It was the perfect music to start and end the film!

[@AcousticLabs]

+mattcarlson12 ah how cool! Premiere is tomorrow. I also scored the movie :) They did such a great job!

[@benjaallen]

+AcousticLabs is there anywhere we can listen to the piece that's playing at 60.08?

[@mattcarlson12]

+AcousticLabs Oh awesome! That had to be a blast to score the entire thing! Really nice job! Hopefully you'll get to meet Huey Lewis! haha

[@SkapeGote]

I have no words. The passion in this is amazing. I wish I could play like this

[@davidegginton1151]

No idea why but had me in tears. amazing.

[@AcousticLabs]

+David Egginton Thanks, David, glad you enjoyed it!

[@christopherlombardo5217]

Same. Nostalgia is something powerful.

[@robbone4]

Goosebumps here listening to it with my kids

[@emperorcalus5020]

Nostalgic overflow my friend. I was tearing up at the end as well

[@derekseifert7]

I hear you man. Simply put I think realizing how much innocence we lose as we age is a very sad fact of life. We yearn for the optimism of youth again. These songs trigger those memories of optimism, real or exaggerated.

[@JayStoneCreative]

Unbelievable Back To The Future was released THIRTY years ago on July 3, 1985. One of the best Trilogies of ALL TIME. Happy Anniversary! ‪#‎BTTF2015

[@AcousticLabs]

Jay Stone Yes indeed! Thanks for that reminder, Jay! Have a great weekend!

[@capturedlondon]

Jay Stone 35 now

[@alburyheritagetrust5480]

Gives me chills every time I listen, absolutely beautiful version of one of the best theme songs ever made.

[@AshStandish]

I NEED this as an MP3. It is a life necessity. I come back here so often to hear it. It gives me chills every single time. I decided (a while back) that I wanted this played as the recessional at my wedding.

[@STormnNormn2027]

I played this song at my wedding... Thank you for such a beautiful performance.

[@AcousticLabs]

Ha, that's brilliant! Love Alan Silvestri, he's one of a kind :)

[@Joeski-doodles]

@@STormnNormn2027 I hope y'all are still together

[@STormnNormn2027]

@@Joeski-doodles we most certainly are. And my son now loves BTTF.

[@sniffdogma]

Woke me up from Back in Time doc and blew me right off the couch. Sheesh-o-wowby-man! Thank you!

Once this baby hits 88 chords an hour, you're gonna see some serious rifts.

[@edouardjeanblanc2155]

Wonderful BTTF adaptation !!!!! Heard on Netflix Back in Time documentary

[@AcousticLabs]

Thanks so much for checking it out :)

[@karic1294]

Me too!! I love that documentary.

[@AcousticLabs]

Kari Winchester Glad you saw it and found my music, Kari, thanks!

[@brianthompson5690]

Watching Back in Time at 1 a.m. I fell asleep... this beautiful playing woke me up. What a joy to behold!

[@AcousticLabs]

Hi Brian, so glad you got to see it friend. That project was so fun, I hope we can all something similar again 😊

[@hynjus001]

Great Scott!!

[@TheSoulessLove]

It really worked!

[@EllaBananas]

This is really heavy!

Eth5471 metal

[@MsSqueashy]

This was so beautiful it legit made me tear up

[@elhigh]

This is an inspiring musical performance that actually goes wanting because of the original score. As a movie score, Silvestri's composition works really well. But played so nicely on this guitar in this style, it swells into what feels like it's about to become an epic theme...and then fades, to swell a little more...then fade some more. As performed it feels like it's telling a story of missed opportunities. An utterly beautiful performance. The music, as written, lets it down.

[@ryangoralczyk1216]

This is the best version of this theme that I've heard. The baritone guitar really makes it

[@Worthofboastworlds]

This is the sound of pure happiness

[@creed6857]

I watched the documentary this morning and immediately looked you up. Shazam didn't recognize it so maybe if it can be added.......I'm not sure how to do that. Wonderful job!

[@bogbog]

Listening to this for the seventh year and counting.

[@Dennis-fw9bd]

I can’t believe how beautiful this is...

[@AcousticLabs]

Thank you Dennis!! 🙏🏻

[@mannymarc24]

Truly a work of art.

[@AcousticLabs]

Thanks friend!! 😊

[@JFGLD515083]

I love it when songs can make you sit back and make a wonderful sigh and then all of a sudden it doesn't matter what's happening in your world everything is good. Great song and great performance

[@tonybologna9268]

WoW, every time I come on KZbin I find a Gem...incredible sound, I don't think I've ever heard the theme music played anywhere and in any other way than in the movie.

[@semphony100]

I really like what you did with changing the cameras and the new feelings of your videos

[@cristiancaiola9588]

Discovered this my freshman year of HS. Now I'm a sophomore music ED major and it still impresses me to no end.

[@CochiseBryant]

I can't stop listening to this version! You sir are a complete gift to the guitar. I'm a grown man not ashamed to admit this brings me to joyful tears. I just celebrated my 15th wedding anniversary on......10/21/2015!!!! I wasn't even aware of the date's significance when I got married, but thanks to technology I now have a greater love for what BTTF means in my life. I want to use this version in my vowel renewal ceremony. THIS IS SO INCREDIBLE!!!

[@AcousticLabs]

+Cochise Bryant that's so cool to hear, friend and congrats on 15 years! Amazing. You can download this at the bottom of this page, it's part of a free collection: www.patreon.com/posts/734683

[@ajamico]

This version is set apart from other acoustic covers of the BTTF theme because of the feeling it is played with. The dynamic in the striking, the pause between measures and sections played more than once to allow the listener to take in the emotion of the progressions. It evokes so much internally, it’s difficult to describe. Can’t get enough of it. Thank you for sharing this.

[@AcousticLabs]

ajamico really appreciate that friend, it was an emotional time in my life haha. Thanks for finding this and for your comment 😊

[@mlvcfan]

I Too Had to come listen after watching the Back In Time documentary. Glad I listened though the closing Credits....This is Fantastic!!! has a very Classical Gas meets Gordon Lightfoot The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald feel. LOVE IT.

[@AcousticLabs]

+mlvcfan Really appreciate that! Glad you got to see the film, friend, thank you :)

[@ChewieKTC]

This is outstanding...

[@insaneclownhoty]

It's heavy

[@DC83790]

Acoustic you have a natural ability to create blissful music.

[@roynoi4662]

After watching this video I decided to buy this guitar and the tabs, of course. 2 weeks later I couldn't open the tabs anymore due to Copyright issues. Don't know what the heck happened. Never bought a tab again.

[@Keither1977]

The very beginning is gorgeous. Not sure if it's the harmony but it's just this feeling of longing for the past.

[@AcousticLabs]

So glad you saw the film my friend, it was one of the joys of my career 😊

[@Mu1974]

This is incredibly beautiful. Searching for this recording was the first thing I did after watching Back in Time.

No disrespect to other covers of this song, but this one is by far the most awesome.

All of these songs just have an atmosphere that makes me so relaxed i could fall asleep

I seriously got chills as this started!

[@TheMinecraftSlave]

Nah, that's just his skillz

[@brandonhannick8520]

This is the way I hear the theme when I think back. The music gets soft slow almost sad. The sound of Nostalgia.

Great Scott! I love traveling to the year 2014 to see talent like this. #BTTF #Delorean #88mph

Excellent version, very emotional. I heard for the first time in the documentary "Back in Time" (I hope it's the same, my ear tells me so) and I squeezed my heart. I wish I could do more to congratulate you, give you a hug, something... xD Sorry for my terrible English. I'm from Argentina. ;)

A powerful and ravishing cover of the greatest movie theme of all time. :)

[@Han_Onkel]

I love this cover of the BttF theme! I have it on in the background a unhealthy amount of the time!

[@hilfsil]

great memories

[@ia5662]

This is such an emotional and classic rendition, Silvestri would be so proud of this. I heard this and sought it out after hearing it on the Back In Time documentary on Netflix. Dude, you killed it! I'm a guitar player myself and respect the hell out of this performance. Who are you and how are you not famous from this rendition? The fact that they used this in the documentary and I couldn't find it in the credits is totally bogus! I fully realize Alan wrote it, but your spin on it should be available for everyone to enjoy and download, I'm sure it took a lot of time and practice to come up with this original arrangement. Beatiful, sincerely beautiful.

[@AcousticLabs]

Ah, thanks so much for reaching out, friend, sorry I'm only just responding. I actually scored the whole documentary, but they found me through this rendition. Super fun, and great to work with Jason, the director and his team. So glad you like the arrangement!

[@kung-fubadger3766]

Seen this video lots of times, still genius I love it.

[@thexspyder1]

Yea man, I heard this on the netflix documentary. Spent some time trying to find you! Awesome and magical rendition of this beautiful song!

[@JonMurray]

Just watched the Back In Time Documentary and heard this. Absolutely stunning. The most beautiful piece of guitar I've heard in a long time. About to go and start learning this immediately! Back to the future is one of my all time favourite films and his been since I was a boy. The documentary was excellent, brought back lots of memories and this was a wonderful rendition of the piece and a brilliant accompaniment to the film. Fantastic work man. Again, absolutely stunning.

[@AcousticLabs]

+Jon Murray Thanks Jon, it was a big part of my growing up too, in that it influenced me to come out to LA and try and jump into the film biz :) So glad you liked the doco, thanks for reaching out!

[@JonMurray]

I'm so sorry it's taken so long to reply to this! I thought I had but it must have failed when I posted! Revisited this video so many times and it's always just as fantastic as the first time. Hope things are going well and the LA film biz has you busy in work ;) No problem man, thank you for the video!

The First time I heard this was January 6, 2014...It had So few views. I'm glad Back In Time came out. When I saw the movie, I couldn't believe they used this. Every time i hear it, It Bring back memories of being like 5 watching this movie for the first time.

[@sparkmaker123]

Well done!! You have a world class talent .Not a huge fan of BTTF(liked the movies tho) but I am a fan of this excellent Baritone version of the theme and heard this as the credits started rolling for "Back in Time" on Netflix. I don't usually watch credits but this piece certainly compelled me to. So glad I found this on youtube as there was no mention in the credits as to what this was or who was playing. I had no idea it was the theme song, that makes me think how you have made this piece your own beyond the original, the sign of a true talent.

[@Keither1977]

So good! Found this from the Back In Time documentary. Brilliant.

[@marcritland9410]
