Man, The Weeknd should get you on stage for two reasons: 1.- Your full on 80's solo with Chorus 2.- *S M I R K*

[@karmasauce6288]

Yes!!!! 💯💯💯

That song you should make another video of it

[@WildaTheRaccoon]

Dude's just chillin as he lays down these fire-ass chords. The energy here is *excellent* .

[@flizerina6628]

This reminds me of the very beginning of a concert where the countdown clock for the main artist to come on stage has ended and the lights are all down. the crowd’s screams have just begun to die down and then that first bass note hits and the entire stadium goes ape.

[@metaphysicalshealth]

*That little smirk he give’s before starting is all I need in life Periodt.*

[@daniasajid6742]

*True*

[@bethanyblogg7641]

I originally liked this song to begin with, but hearing this rendition in TikTok, I RAN for my headphones! You really gave this song what it was missing, and I didn’t even think it was missing anything at first! You need to make this downloadable. Please!

[@TobeePaik]

Thank you, unfortunately it’s only downloadable via my Patreon page atm. I cannot distribute it officially due to copyright issues... Glad you liked it.

[@emilyarguelles6182]

[@iliketoeatroaches1681]

Bro lets pretend theyre bots cuz this had to take a while to learn and look at his beautiful face why would you dislike thattt so theyre botss

[@mathewshewan3948]

I disliked this, and i am not a bot( i know, that's just what a bot would say...or is it.....) anyhoo, the first part, he's just playing chords with loads of distortion through a decent amp, which is pointless cos the backing track is so loud you can't hear it anyway and when he does show a bit of class, again, it's drowned out by the backing track!

[@wilma7612]

He is not doing anything special

He even used the chorus effect to make it the most 80's possible (that sequence, and that epic smirk)

[@j9mh]

The Weekend needs to see this and make a collaboration happen! You are amazing!!! I can't stop listening to your cover 👍

[@TobeePaik]

Rock on. 👍🏻

[@KrisSugga]

This cover is just awesome 🔥 I made a Rock Cover of this song, do you like it? 😀 kzbin.info/www/bejne/nqi8ZaKup8Siick

That would be worth the wait

[@graberassadventures3539]

My god dude. That fit perfectly. Turning blinding lights into a more rock style song. Sounds like an early 2000's song from linkin park or somewhere along those lines. I LOVE it. Keep up the awesome work dude

[@Diviniums]

I was lucky to find your post on tik tok. Instantly subscribed. You're amazing keep it up and I hope you never run out of inspiration for more videos

Thank you. This helps for motivation. Thank you again.

Sounds like the 80s. Awesome job!!

[@cmccarrick10]

Not sure if the real music fans realize just how good this song is. this cover shows it very well!

[@ianlouis888]

The smile is the best part, he knows how good it is

[@JimmyG01]

I am absolutely in love with this cover! Whenever other people cover these types of song on guitar or piano, they cover the vocal part and add some fancy solo/chord changes. This wasn't done with anything fancy or over the top. Just some nice powerchords mostly and it still sounds great. Love the simplicity!

[@neilaaron4122]

This legitimately makes my life better. Thank you.

[@TobeePaik]

Thank YOU.

[@ilovemetallica2488]

why would people dislike, they clicked on a video that said "blinding lights- the weeknd on guitar" AND LITERALLY GOT IT, THIS IS A MASTERPIECE AND I STRIVE TO LEARN HOW TO PLAY LIKE THIS

Omg this is the only version I want to listen to now

sounds like it's in either e standard or Eb standard and it's just e form minor/major bar chords

[@ChuckleBuck]

It’s literally simple power cords

[@michaelk4896]

It's as simple as it gets lol...

[@ThatOtherRaccoon]

Yeah there isn't really anything overtly complicated about this song. It's really just a matter of timing and knowing your scales, just slow it down and follow along in portions.

[@TobeePaik]

Thank you 🙏🏻

[@ejej6934]

It's not a matter of this being "better" than the original studio version of the song. It's just that it's an interpretation that allows you to see how great the song can sound when you bring in musicians who have insight and talent that enable an exploration of a song's potential. Fantastic cover.
