Guitar Teacher REACTS: MILEY CYRUS "Plastic Hearts" LIVE SNL 4K

[@cozyslor]

She does an amazing cover of Say Hello 2 Heaven for a Cornell tribute. She turns the hardcore audience from doubters to believers.

[@rome8180]

The Plastic Hearts album rocks. Really great songwriting and production. And I love her husky voice.

[@bridgelaurie9490]

Miley has been kicking ass for years. Her Dylan and dolly covers are out of this WORLD

[@DerekSmyth]

Her NPR tiny desk blew me away. Wasn’t expecting it.

[@kevinwhitlock3733]

Stoked to see Miley getting some respect. She is AWESOME!

[@Guitargate]

Beyond Awesome. Thanks!

[@shaneholbeck6697]

Blown away. The media needs to be shot for the way they portray Miley without showing us her kick ass stuff like this.

[@Lindsay.trains]

Same... the media doesn't portray much of anything honestly.

[@bridgelaurie9490]

She’s been bad ass look up her covers of Bob Dylan, Dolly Parton etc. they are out of this world.

[@dfifty2]

What are you expecting from media ? the majority did'nt get it that she is'nt Hannah Montana and a Disney playball anymore. She shows the world what a incredible talented person, musician, vocalist, songwriter and performer she is. She will be greater than Madonna one day, easily

That voice! She really should sing more rock songs, she's so good at it! Thanx for this reaction, I'm not sure I would have checked her performance if it wasn't for your video.

[@sakurajks]

Her last album Plastic Hearts is perfect ❤️ you should check it

[@andre590]

Watch her heart of glass cover

[@yesmamnosir7997]

It’s cause she still has some of that southern accent. 😉

[@thecuantocabronshow5072]

Her recent album plastic hearts is a rock album, take a listen 😉

[@robertelee63]

For many years , I've claimed that rock and roll was really dead - Foo Fighters were the last rock stars. Sure there are smaller bands, but nobody could taker the mantle of real stars - dinosaur rock - Beatles, Stones, Zep, etc. Miley is something really different. She was a pop star, like all we have these days, but she's outgrown that. My imagination is that the future of rock will be her in front of a real band (something she forms sounds like Tedeschi Trucks with all the real instruments including a Hammond B3) doing music with this complexity and that the general public will like it much as I would.

[@santiagoroldan1060]

Miley’s latest album is amazing. You should check it out.

[@nascarcasey5914]

I'm an unashamed Miley fan also, she's only 4 days older than me. She did learn from the great Dolly Parton, after all.

[@thatmckenzie]

Props, Mr. P. I would never have seen this without you recommending it and it simply *killed*

[@c2gindustries]

Same yo

[@justinguitarcia]

Miley's voice is a rare thing. Love thats she leaning on her rock side

[@ish474]

Another badass who falls into this category is Pink. When her first record came out the singles off it were pop songs. I didn't hate it, I just didn't care. My girlfriend at the time happen to leave the CD in my car and listening to it, it's a blues record. And she has a lot of songs that are just at their core great great songs.

[@tydecker694]

This song gives me serious "I'm still standing" vibes. I was hooked about 10 years ago when I heard her sing Jolene.

[@FREEFROMITALL]

No clue what language you're speaking but she absolutely killed that performance as did her band. She was on snl before and destroyed as well. Prior focus too much on her wild behavior when in reality she probably one of the hardest workers in entertainment. Love everything about that song for sure and seeing how much you were smiling throughout was uplifting as well.

[@joshualagrone6972]

i want someone to look at me the way Michael looks at Miley. killer video, as always!

[@stevehatcher7700]

I look at Miley the same way. Noticed her bad ass talent years ago. But I'm quite biased since she looks so much like the girl I lost my virginity to, about 5 years before Miley was born ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[@yesmamnosir7997]

If you think he looks at Miley that way check out his video/how he looked at John Moreland.

[@zacharygail4605]

“I know a bad ass when I see one” - M.P.

[@natetrout1]

One of the most talented vocalists of all time. If you don’t see that I can’t help you. Stevie nicks meets Dolly.

[@bridgelaurie9490]

Speaking of her covers of Dylan and Dolly are elite.

[@pacmanmtherfck]

Love this Thank you for the reaction Love your energy and Miley's voice and energy is amazingly

[@troyspencer712]

its easy to hate on Miley the popstar, but she has a boatload of talent and a story to tell. I too am a fan and that gravelly voice shes developed is dope. When compared to the Stevie Nicks and Joan Jetts, Miley isn't left wanting imo.

[@JAYDUBYAH29]

Not just talent. Ears, technique, and hard work to understand harmony with depth!

[@yesmamnosir7997]

She’s extremely talent. Just wish she wouldn’t of gone in the pop direction. Could to imagine if she SEMI followed her fathers footsteps and did alt-country or blues.

[@JAYDUBYAH29]

@@yesmamnosir7997 she made millions as a very young woman doing pop dance music, exploring drugs and free love and self-expression etc, and is now maturing into a country-rock singer-songwriter with amazing chops and range. no mistakes.

[@yesmamnosir7997]

@@JAYDUBYAH29 she’s living her life within the 1% because of her talent. I’m sure she’s made all the right decisions. I’m saying I wish she would’ve made more enjoyable music to my ears. I haven’t liked a single song she’s ever done, doesn’t mean she isn’t talented. Also, there have been way way wayyyy better musicians die with lint in their pockets so money doesn’t mean shit cause for some reason the majority of people like shit music. Talent doesn’t always make something enjoyable. Go listen to Between The Buried and Me. I seriously doubt you’ll like it.

[@JAYDUBYAH29]

@@yesmamnosir7997 listened. What bizarre self indulgent, easy to parody garbage. Good chops though, dude.

[@chrisjohnson-fh7nz]

To be able to listen to a song for just a few seconds And then be able to Know what they're playing And then actually play along too it is an amazing gift

Killer man!!! Good content. Your explanations add an extra depth to all music that makes even amateur musicians gather much more love and appreciation for the craft.

[@brucewailes7744]

I'm one of your subscribers who found you because of Grateful Dead tracks that you ran. It pains me a little to say this, but the girl rocks. That is a hot performance and I'd have never seen it if you hadn't covered it. Thanks.

Michael! i've requested the same song a few times in comments, instagram and your website, but I just posted it again on Guitar Gate hoping this one finally gets to ya. *Tallest Man on Earth - What I've Been Kicking Around Mahogany Session* you absolutely must listen to this one. Haven't seen any other requests for him and he's hands down my favourite folk guitarist and singer. His fingers will blow ya damn mind. Cheers and thank you for all that you do!

Miley rocks, never would’ve thunk it. Great video as always Mr. Palmisano!! If you get a chance you should check out some JJ Grey & Mofro, awesome band with a distinct sound from Jacksonville Florida. Songs to check out would be 99 Shades of Crazy, The Sun is Shining Down from the Live OurVinyl Sessions and from the same live show Brave Lil Fighter. Also for one that really jams from the OurVinyl Sessions check out How Junior Got His Head Put Out!! Derek Trucks plays on the studio cuts of Lullaby and Every Minute. Promise you won’t be disappointed.

[@jonlarson6876]

Michael, great, fun video. And as a dad of a 20 year old girl, I get Miley! But this also reminds me of other SNL performances. And I think the best one I've ever seen is Sturgill - he tore it up. Call to Arms (or Keep it Between the Lines) - the intensity. If you haven't watched it, do yourself a favor.

Would love to have a beer with you some time, God bless you brother

[@mitchellcohen3361]

Miley does some killer covers

[@JAYDUBYAH29]

The voice leading you’re flagging here perfectly crushes the harmonic minor feeling, just like the final chorus (the melody avoids nailing the characteristic F# harmonic minor b6 and maj 3 notes of the C# chord the rest of time) of Colors, which is in the same key and uses that major V to minor I thing..... but it’s more intense because she has that relative major bridge that then heightens the contrast when she uses the big augmented moment to drive it back home. Awesome video dude! Been trying to tell my music bros that Miley is a real one for some years now.

[@BUNKERJR53]

Michael, there is nothing wrong with your shirt. I live in Maryland. Originally from Frederick and now living in Smithsburg. Love Baltimore. Been there more times than I can count. Miley is a very talented lady. She can belt a song. Thanks for featuring her.

Wish I had the extra money to buy Michael a Vidami pedal and send it to him. Anyone else with some extra cash that watches his videos religiously like me that can send him one?

I’ve heard her sing a few lines here and there on one of the competition shows maybe the voice? She’s certainly talented... wasn’t bad on Black Mirror either. If you have ever considered online courses Michael is a great instructor I was a drummer my entire life can read and write music which is a slight advantage. With that said I picked up guitar cold a year and a half ago and his courses have me to a point that people do not believe me when I say how long I’ve been playing.
