Boston - More Than A Feeling (SHRED VERSION) || Sophie Lloyd

[@steelignis6167]

The perfect pick me up for these times, your smiling face and some good tunes.

[@idesofmarch3744]

As they say: 'The classics never go out of style'. Well done. Beautiful, crisp, clean tones.

[@bradbillet318]

I remember stumbling on this video of a girl playing guitar in her bedroom several years ago and being completely mesmerized. Fast forward to today and I have several autographed posters framed on my walls. Framed CD and guitar picks. I have seen her play in sold out arenas. Have had a number of conversations. And, am named in the credits of her recent debut solo album. Her meteoric rise to me came as no surprise and yet... I still periodically have to come back and watch this Boston cover as it remains my favorite thing she's ever done. Congratulations Sophie. It's been a hell of a ride so far, huh? 🙂

[@JordanSchreiner-p3o]

Fantastic job Sophie Lloyd for playing the song more than a feeling!

[@TheEmotionalArcheologist]

Boston has always been near and dear to my heart and at 55, I'm blown away by her reenvisioning of this song, in keeping with its pure essence.

[@user-vp1sc7tt4m]

"More than a feeling..." Played by Sophie with her awesome shred rift is certainly appreciated by this Boston fan. I love guitar and Sophie rocks it so well. 60 here. My daughter plays mostly bass and has been discouraged by others into using her talents in the way Sophie does. Keep on rocking Sophie and showing us all how it can be done. Such an inspiration. You are awesome and you bring back the old school rock excitement inspiration that I think we need to revive these days. Rock on!!

[@Hedgewitch79]

I’m a big fan of Boston ❤️❤️and I’m 28 😊❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@sierraridgereaper]

Boston fan here too and I been playing this song since just a few years after its release and Sophie's cover is the best Ive EVER heard done... 😉

[@ArcanePath360]

Definitely. I was expecting to hate this when I clicked on it. How can you improve on such an awesome original? Well, you can't.... but you can give it a different flavour while respecting the original, much to the appreciation of Boston fans who yearn for something new.

[@delshoemaker7616]

[@rickywheeler6054]

Holy cow, that was the best ever guitar playing ever. I love that song, but she sang it with her guitar and did the guitar solo also, awesome. Absolutely stunning. Wonderful.

[@Thefoxygamer1]

Well said, “she sang it with her guitar” nothing else needs to be said. She’s incredible, how has nobody picked up on her?

[@sb632]

This is a special song and band for me. When my mother was alive, Boston was one of her favorite bands. When I was a kid she would blast this song when it came on the radio. Then of course as I got older I would listen to all the boston stuff with her and my dad. Thank you for this amazing cover!

[@gusgiesel]

The guitar solo in this song is absolutely timeless. I've heard it a thousand times and I still get goosebumps over it.

[@Cody_Lemon]

And then you’ve got Hitch A Ride, easily one of the best of all time solos

[@dougt2796]

[@finallyitsed2191]

I don't know what was more pleasurable about this; watching Sophie thoroughly enjoying playing this or thoroughly enjoying listening to her play.

[@francodebonis2736]

More Than A Feeling is my all-time favourite song. Playing guitar is my all-time favourite activity. This shred version makes me very happy!!!! Well done Sophie!!!

[@mike7652]

The pre-chorus riff of this song is one of mankind's greatest achievements. This cover of this song is also one. That she didn't shred the solo completely makes this. Jolly good show! (Also, please say "Jolly good show" in a video someday, would be pretty hilarious...like at the end of this one for example.)

[@b.carter1460]

All hail to Vinnland

[@stretmediq]

I saw Boston three times back in the 70s this is probably the best cover I've ever heard :)

[@julieannalbuzbeba253]

Saw them back in 1987 at the Centrum in Worcester MA. 9 SOLD OUT SHOWS! Amazing doesn't even come close to describing how it was. Brad Delp and Tom Scholz at their absolute BEST!!

Her devotion while playing is so inspiring. You gotta love to see it.

[@garybishop8381]

Just when I thought I couldn't love Sophie (and her music) any more, she plays one of my all-time favorite songs! LOVED IT!! I really enjoy watching her play - she obviously not only enjoys playing the guitar, but feels the music too. Awesome job, as always!!

[@palumbodiablo3031]

The slurs are just perfect for this song, Tom Scholz's style obviously. Improvised by shredding here & there makes it more expressive & vibrant. Love it!

So true Hightops99, as a musician for 40 years now, it's easy to see that she's feeling what she plays. Tom Scholz would be thinking, I wish I would have done some of those licks. Seriously, the best cover I've see this year or longer. So glad You posted and I got to hear this.

[@terrywoolard7505]

Great version of a great song. Enough of the original, that you recognized it, but with a huge dose of Sophie thrown in. I could listen to Sophie speak all day, with her angelic voice and accent. Great job with this classic, Sophie. Stay safe !!

[@zetafac5333]

A great compliment to one of the greatest songs ever written. I like the way you enjoy having fun playing around with your own style; without taking away from the original version. That’s an awesome fret board on your guitar buy the way… Good job!

Not only is this girl sooooo pretty, but she can actually play!! She has substance. Fantastic job. I also noticed the 681 dislikes. That can only mean that those are die hard fans of Asian boy band BTS!😅😅

[@cbiltcliffe]

@JW KenCo Then look at some of the original stuff she's got on her channel. Everybody plays covers. There isn't a single good musician on the planet who hasn't. Disparaging an incredible talent, just because it's a cover? You're a bitter, vindictive person. Probably jealous, too. About the only thing you said that I agree with, is that if this were a man it would have fewer views. Fewer, but not none. There would still be positive comments, and he would not be made fun of, except by shallow people such as yourself. Go put the years of effort in that she obviously has, in order to get this good, and then your opinion might be slightly less worthless.

Sophie's facial expressions remind me of the first time I heard Boston's, "Hollyann". I was driving late at night with the top down in my dream car that I'd just bought.....a '69 Mercedes-Benz 280 SL. I was going twice the speed limit on a deserted back road as tree branches became a blur overhead, when Hollyann came on the radio for the first time. It was euphoric. My Mercedes was instantly christened, "Hollyann", & she and I are still together today. And I still get the same expressions on my face as Sophie does in this vid when I drive Hollyann.
