apparently my cover was so perfect, youtube copyright claimed this whole 5 minute video as an original audio claim, not a composition claim, proof: oliverqiu.cool/sheetslessons/Capture.PNG i don't make any money on here anyways so it's just for the bragging rights 😎

[@lamiahairane7375]

As they should!!! 💀🫶🏻

[@kallebanan1924]

I was just about to comment about how accurate the timbre is LOL

[@AK-hr9pm]

Thank you so much, it’s kinda hard to find takanaka tabs for the more “unknown” songs of his 🙌

[@nojuanatall3281]

Awesome thank you! Some of this stuff is hard to find. Excellent playing!

[@oliverqiu_]

thanks! that's exactly why i cover/transcribe it :)

[@tomek4711]

I cannot thank you enough! Masayoshi got me back into guitar after a few years and thanks to you I can even play some! Amazing work!!

Killer cover, really captured the energy of takanaka

[@thatonemailbox]

You nailed his tone! This is incredible!

[@breadolife2267]

You killed it! 🔥

[@dannychoriki1977]

As a total guitar noob, I can hardly make sense of these chord changes. But thanks for giving me the resources to even attempt it! You're the best

[@dannychoriki1977]

I see like... G7 to Cmaj7 which makes me think C major Then I see the Gminor7 to Fmaj7 which makes me think F major. I have no idea. Hahahaa.

[@oliverqiu_]

@@dannychoriki1977 haha yeah i played the chords on piano for this song, they are a bit tough for guitar - but yes you're right on those two examples!

[@user-ps8xg3te8n]
