Billy is one of the most talented artists to have ever walked this Earth.

[@jonnyogy2872]

Something about his music is just raw real, and also hopeful and filled with mystery and beauty ✨

[@hegenikolaisen5594]

Ja det stemmer.

[@siddhant717]

I like how that dude has his phone in his hand so that the person on the other side can hear Billy perform. It's heartwarming, almost.

[@oliveraeternus3285]

Almost human? It's normal outside ov usa to just be kind. But i do like a big Mac and fry chickens. So I'm just the same as you :)

[@drtoboggan7469]

i saw SP in okla 1998 and me and my bro was walking out when the blues travelers started playing we saw the SPs van leaving and he saw me waving and told the driver to stop and he actually gave me a pick in his pocket and took his jacket off and gave that to me too. he said its hot in okla here ya go nice to see hes still classy.

[@LaBadessa100]

He's GREAT, a very kind person, what a smile!

[@miadenfria]

He’s so damn beautiful my eyes hurt just from looking at him❤️

[@KidKentucky]

You have to love Billy for that one

[@angrami]

there's no better way to meet a musician like Billy and expect to him to begin playing for his fans in acoustic. Great voice.

[@TrippingTheTube]

Big appreciation for Billy Corgan.

[@mufflerstien]

he is truly amazing!!!!

[@zirtapot57]

This is sincere.

[@psikhyobar]

Now that I take a closer look, Billy Corgan and Bill Burr resemble each other quite a lot.

[@MrShahid0072]

Used to..Billy look so weird now

[@batman59]

That's just incredible. To me it's one of my idoles and he is just simply playing among people like any artist in th street. That should be so impressive.

[@strangedean]

OMG there is hope for all of us!

[@matthewmcdanel4106]

I remember seeing these circa 05-06. I'm glad they didn't disappear from the Ether.

[@ustheserfs]

Love it, with a completely different spin on a classic Bee Gee period number.

[@britainivy303]

Honest, raw, candid and pure! Britain Ivy.xo

[@Elizabeth-Luvz-JESUS]

In love with this spirit💜💖💥

[@LucidDream]

Aw. 1:45 "To love somebody the way I love you." And that smile he gave was so sweet.

[@lanarkscotland2305]

Mia figlia (1 anno) lo sta guardando ora... Io guardo lei...sono commossa...

[@AlineVoiski]

AMO a voz dele... perfeita!

[@Izekial56]

Awesome. I envy every person in that audience. :)

[@Bieberfanatic911]

[@erinmurray8451]

Be still my heart

[@tonyrosam]

guy in back "hey girl, listen to this."

[@aveamer]

Awesome

[@dabum2005]

@PodunkCircean It's true! Why else would a musician go in the middle of a crowd and play for a bunch of fans?!

[@jammasterdoom]

Oh dear. I'm embarrassed to have at one time considered this man a hero of mine.

[@mateuszm.9556]

Anyone can tell the chords?? Please I would be very grateful.

[@chrissywicked96]

Google it. DUHHHH

[@Mansplainer452]

@@chrissywicked96 you're an asshole

[@ScottieWallace]

Those ppl are SO RUDE... talking all over his performance... a once in a lifetime event and they are all " did you watch game of thrones last night, lets go eat at comet pizza, this guy is boring the shit out of us...." blah blah Anyway, beautiful singing Billy, Loved it!

[@fullbelliesclearskies6825]

comet pizza😂😂

[@rivieratheatre2011]

Transcendental.... Genius... Go to Ultimate Guitar - Billy Corgan - To Love Somebody Acoustic to find out about tuning and chords

[@PodunkCircean]

@ihatelazypeople Why not (: ? they were merely all sharing a moment.

[@tkjp999]

@j1nt3tsu Exactly, you put in the effort in your music, which means a lot to you, what better feeling than people singing along to the lyrics you wrote (well not in this case... but you get the idea)

[@hegenikolaisen5594]

Det blei Oss.

[@marcmcfarland5113]

Lose the ads, KZbin.

[@nahbay]

What guitar is he using? Sounds decent

[@phcd]

Does he know the song?

[@cilenefranca1526]

♥

[@dabum2005]

@j1nt3tsu it's true!

[@ACoustaDC]

Did he play that guy in the movie powder?? lol

[@jeffbuckley1]

can someone please tell me the tuning and chords to this? I've been dying to play it this way, thanks!

[@palms159]

g# minor is the root key, mostly standard tuning, seems like the high e string is tuned to f# i.e. a whole step (two frets) up, the high two strings are left to ring open by using the thumb to hold the root note on the low e string, billy really messed up the progression here, it's a really great variation of the original progression on the record (hopefully you'd figured this out in the 10 years since your comment)

[@alice981]

ma dove cazzo ero ioooo !! maledetta me!! ce l'avevo a 20 minuti......

[@culturebjones]

the guy just noticily recording with his phone

[@cboniver]

perro, no va ni a palos la secuencia armónica que irrespetuosamente le metés a un gran tema.

[@mrgreensound]

its been 4 years.. still think he has a great voice. what the fuck are you hearing.

[@lzrdkng115]

A slap to D'arcy's face? She hated the Bee Gees.

[@MDS1958]

Not sure that's what the Gibbs had in mind. Fantastic? No. Odd? Yes. I don;t quite get the adoration.

[@lilibee4462]

David Ortiz en este vídeo en este audio esta fuera de tono y tocando acordes equivocados,que lo admites que tenga fans no le quita que en este vídeo está cantando desafinado! aquí y en China en esta grabación la Cago! soy Lili Bee no me conoce nadie pero se mucho música he producido música 20 años...para Sony y para otras compañías disqueras para TV también. tengo vídeos también bien cantaditos nadie me conoce pero existo y canto muy bien.

[@maradroga1grm692]

En un video de 3 minutos billy se limpio el culo con tus 20 años jajaja

[@ukengel]

Aparte de todo lo que dijo Alan. Convengamos que esto fue grabado en medio de una calle con una guitarra de alguien que justo pasó ahí y que de hecho tuvo que afinar él mismo. Obviamente Corgan no estaba preparado y como él mismo demostró, no se sabía la canción por completo. Tocó por tocar, no por hacer algo espectacular. Aún así, aunque el audio suene sucio (porque fue grabado con una cámara casera), no haya usado los acordes tal y como lo tocan los Bee Gees (Que no tiene nada de malo usar otros acordes en tu propia interpretación de una canción) la canción te llega, suena bonita y sincera. Que es lo importante

[@Francomariov]

Lili Bee acordes equivocados? que es eso? los acordes que eligio para interpretar la canción en el momento porque parece improvisado

[@ukengel]

Franco Vergara De hecho no parece, ES improvisado. Por desgracia, la gran mayoría no parece comprenderlo y le tiran mierda porque sí

[@macsww]

Geesh, some people are so miserable.

[@paulinorendonmurillo8361]

:v

[@larryinca693]

zzzzzzzzzzz

[@lilibee4462]

este cuate esta fuera de tono!! desafinando..tocando acordes que no son..terrible no se como no se dan cuenta

[@ikariano]

+Lili Bee iba a dar un concierto en la noche, esta dando show de a gratis por puro amor a la musica y a su publico seguramente estaba cuidando de no dañar su voz otra es que seguramente no recordaba del todo la cancion tal como se aprecia

[@lilibee4462]

Precioso ikariano yo soy cantante profesional y aunque no cobres no puedes cantar asi de mal! Y cuando uno se cuida la voz no significa cantar fuera de tono, entiendo lo admiras pero no te conformes con tan poca calidad de artista para mi el canta como un amateur...

[@ikariano]

no digo que haya gustado, solo comento lo que es posible, y si hay veces que le falla esta es obvio una de ellas como hay muchas, lo admiro mas como compositor y guitarrista que como cantante

[@davidforeverlive]

+Lili Bee y tu kieen ere he! jajajajajajajaj cantante profesional estas de risa lili bee jajajaj profesional kien te conoce he! jajajaja a ver donde estan tus discos y cual es tu nombre artistico he! LA AbEJITA jajajajajaj. anda mejor vete a tomar a otro el pelo he ! ... cantante profesional jajajajajajajaajja

[@lilibee4462]

David Ortiz no todos los artistas son famosos y eso no quiere decir que no tengan conocimiento,tengo 20 años cantando no soy famosa pero he dado clases de canto..es como si dijeras que un pintor que no es famoso no es buenoçSoy cantante profesional y compositora, ser profesional no significa ser famoso, y ser famoso no significa ser buen cantante.

[@Trumpster71]

Wtf is this. By far the worst rendition ever. Freaking terrible

[@mrgreensound]

shite that was lame.

[@adamglover4716]

He's fucking awful and who ever says he isn't needs some new ears.

[@apocalypseplough8089]

I understand musicians wanting to put their own spin on songs, but this version is terrible. Sorry. I play this song occasionally on my guitar and I sound better than he does. Who says it's okay to choose any chords you want for a song? It ain't. Wrong chords and terrible singing. Nothing personal against him. I said the same thing about Jack White's version of Buddy Holly's "Not Fade Away." It was equally as bad. Put your own spin on it if you want, but don't deviate so much from the original that it becomes unrecognizable.

[@apocalypseplough8089]

Brooklyn *෴* I said, I can play THIS SONG better than he can. And, I'm a female.

[@minutesandmiles]

+Apocalypse I wouldn't delve too far into it, he literally came up with the chords there and then as you can see at the start. Not bad for a 20 second improvisation before playing

[@apocalypseplough8089]

Byte Surfer I'm a female.

[@apocalypseplough8089]

R Davies It's actually terrible. Don't sing a song on the sidewalk if you don't know the chords and know there is a camera on you. Do you play the guitar? You can't just willy nilly change chords.

[@minutesandmiles]

i don't really think he cares. A fan gave him the guitar during a meet and greet and probably requested that song and Billy gave it a go for a laugh. That's all there is to it and yes I play
