Love the Ariana Grande project. No doubt you'll nail the next one.

Can we make this a series?! GB Originals in the style of: ________.

[@fregenegbubemi]

Yesss

[@theblablablahs]

YES!

[@Pedrorocks1092]

I agree!!

[@jaredabadam360]

That would be awesome🔥

[@rangeofmotion5993]

You are a solid guitar player, singer, and songwriter... KUDOS to you for putting those skills to work!

[@MaxJoplin]

I used to watch your John Mayer covers a while back, wondered what you've been up to and you're happy and healthy and still active, excellent man. Love your sound. You started with covers but I really hears something unique in your tone. Keep writing!

[@TheKaweoD]

I hope I’m not the only person that wants(NEEDS) a Gabe Bondoc masterclass on songwriting...

[@SmithStNicholas]

Agreed!

[@stevenher2532]

Agreed!!!!!!

Same , same club, I wish he would consider it, I Just find out this gus, recently he is amazing.

[@MEKiMCHiiE]

NICE. But you need a "yuh" moment in there lol

[@gabebondoc]

YES! 😂❤️

[@OneRequiem123]

THE PEOPLE NEED A STUDIO VERSION

[@jethroportillo1015]

I know this wasn’t a choice but John Mayer? That would be great.

[@elliotkryu]

it's gotta be coming, there's no way he won't. Let this playlist be proof 😂 kzbin.info/aero/PLqEOF0pI4ifoZmfGPL5E7FDpehs0ASeEu

[@Just4Youu24]

this was SPOT ON. Down to her little talk-sing breaks. Ed definitely gotta be next.

[@JRAquinomusic]

This is awesome, brooo! Can't wait to hear mooooore!

[@adrieldelatorre6265]

Hey Gabe can you make a tutorial on how you play guitar? Like the type of chords you use?

[@gabebondoc]

Planning to record a series on this! ❤️

[@jasd_6]

All of the yes

[@CrisAnneFernandez]

@@gabebondoc YES PLS

[@bennysin574]

I have been trying to imitate your guitar playing for 10yrs now! Techniques on making pop songs sound jazz pleaseee

[@edsiljess2137]

@@gabebondoc PLs do Gabe

[@cameronjacobdudkiewicz2246]

Love the concept! Shows how musically inclined/intelligent/aware you are. Ed Sheeran would be a great next artist to take on. Your styles are similar in a way in my opinion. Take care and and wishing you all the best!

[@blackstefan]

Yooooo Gabe! You nailed it! I can totally hear Ariana's voice on this. I love how you did the whistling notes by literally whistling the notes hahah! Chord progression was fire too. Awesome job, as with everything else you do man. I wanna hear some Khalid next! Your guitarplaying and voice really adds something cool and soothing to the RnB genre.

[@celinacrz]

YESSSSSSS!! we need Miss Ari to see this 😭❤️

[@melvinsings]

This is perfect. To get into the mindset of another artist takes so much time and skill. Loved it bro.

[@gabebondoc]

Thank you my bro! ❤️

[@christam9750]

Wow, spot on! Can totally hear her on this! Love! I’d like to hear Ed!

[@jenniekimchi4862]

i’m gonna need this on spotify ASAP

[@kayyluuuh]

Loooove this! Loved you explanations and breakdown. Can’t wait to see more...maybe Khalid!

[@gabebondoc]

So happy you enjoyed!! ❤️

[@RKTPROD22]

I hope Ariana sees this!! This is amazing Gabe 🤘🏻💯❤️

[@DavidDiMuzio]

Dude, your whistling is next level. You need to learn to whistle "Bluesette"! PS: LOVE the song! She'd be lucky to record it.

[@IlianaBeilis]

woooowwww it really sounds like Ariana!!! Please make one song like Khalid!! Love how you play guitar and sing :) Blessings from Spain

[@insignias]

Yoooo! I love that you’re doing a new thing Gabe! It’s clear throughout how much joy was put into making this. I had a smile on the whole time!

[@MangoCharrot]

Yo this felt like a legit songwriting class. Interesting video. 100% will watch the next ones. And you nailed the deconstruction of her songs and writing your own out of the ideas you gathered!

[@rdsanantonio]

we love the whistle tone whistles haha. This is amazing! Definitely would love to hear a song inspired by Ed Sheeran!

[@gabebondoc]

😂❤️

[@kathrynjoy7]

loved this!!! i really want to see you do Khalid next

[@theblablablahs]

Khalid! On the side note, loving this 'constructively' reviewing type of content! Not only we understand and learn something from the artist, but also we learn how you break down a song (or music in general)! And this gets us to know you a lot better. Cheers, brother!

[@gabebondoc]

I'm so glad you enjoyed - it also helps ME to break it down like this too! More to come! ❤️

[@theblablablahs]

@@gabebondoc Looking forward to it. Sending love from the Philippines!

[@lexylady]

Omg I really enjoyed this!! The lyrics definitely seemed like they’d fit in an album. Would love to see what you’ll do with a Khalid song!

[@valerielin2036]

This is SO good, Gabe! Can't wait for the rest of this series! I could def see you doing Ed Sheeran next!

[@willy4129]

This is soo good! I totally heard her voice! You rock gabe.

[@johns651]

Ed Sheeran inspired song, early Sheeran vibes though, listen to Loose Change EP, his most raw sound before he became quite heavily commercialised.

[@deadication9941]

+ is my favorite Ed Sheeran album I would love for Gabe do do this again with Ed Sheeran in mind

[@yardenbuskila1150]

I love it so much!! The guitar and the vocals, love that You should do next a khalid one

[@danzarc]

Man, this is awesome! Been a fan since High School! Take on Ed, Gabe!

yaaaaas! Honeymoon Avenue is my fave out of all her songs!

[@cjfitero7612]

You absolutely nailed it and loved this from start to finish! Super appreciate taking us along through the thought process behind your idea

[@KenEdwardC]

Good to see the OG Back, man the amount of youtube singers that I see now that I can literally hear the Gabe Bondoc influence is amazing, even with the chord progressions and the style of singing, you've influenced alot bro. More of this series! I've seen you do a couple Ed Sheeran over the years so I want Khalid version this time. :) Also I just read in the comment section that you plan on doing a series in the way you choose your chords, brooooooo that would be amazing. To this day I can't figure out the chords you used in your Pillowtalk cover. Haha!

[@anuggetofchuang]

KHALID!!! This was AMAZING and I loved learning about your process through this challenge.

[@waniterr]

[@paulkapelerismusic937]

Been following your channel on my personal account for ages. From one musician to another, this was incredible. The chord progressions made me wish I knew jazz so I could come up with something half as dynamic and interesting, and your runs were awesome! I really like how you structured the melodies overall. Honestly just a really cool song, and very true to Grande's style. Ed Sheeran original please lol.

[@urbanendeavor]

This is spot on LOL serious Ari vibes! ✨ let’s hear Khalid next please ☺️

[@arjayramis2890]

Wooaa!! I like this kind of content/concept of your new video. Iz a story on how your music being born. Love it

I can definitely hear Ariana’s influence of this song. You’re such a good song writer! Would you ever write a worship song?
