Je Te Veux (Marcel Dadi) - Cover

[@dertizos]

It's beautiful mate! I'm always glad to see Marcel Dadi's music being discovered by non-french musicians! If I can give you a song suggestion, you could check out "Big Chief" by Marcel. It's in a ragtime style, but I believe it to be a tad more complex ;) Beautiful channel, by the way!

[@BidorPerak]

So amazing...

[@joshuahoffman3579]

Is it bad that this is the first Marcel Dadi song I've ever heard? I've never even heard of the musician. Beautiful tune. I want to listen on repeat.

[@TimVanRoy]

I have to admit I'm not 100% up to date on his repertoire either, but picking this one for a lesson was an easy choice!

[@EmmanuelPons]

Wow you nailed it ! Such a great song from a great composer. I still miss Marcel Dadi. I spent half my life learning his songs. Well done !

[@TimVanRoy]

It took me 4 bars to decide to do a lesson on this song. What a beautiful melody!

[@nordinedjaouani1255]

Merci c'est tellement magnifique. Thanks very much to play this great artist Marcel Dadi. Very great ! I love your channel and you have magic and beautiful playing guitar ❤❤❤

[@TheRezus35]

so glad you play Marcel..He was a genius, and wonderful composer too. It would be great to learn A Letter from Abi :)

[@TimVanRoy]

That looks like one that could be suited for more "beginner" fingerpickers too. I'll add it to the (always growing) list. 😉

[@guitarado]

you have improved the output sound, it is great !

[@philipcampion386]

This incredibly beautiful Tim. Bravo. Makes me want to run and grab the guitar to try and emulate. Hopefully I ll find a lesson for this on your website. You’re a genius. Thank you so much. Philip

[@TimVanRoy]

Hi Philip! Yes, you can already access the free preview lesson through my website (no account or log-in is necessary). Dive in straight away, I hope you like the song as much as I did!

[@mrmister3507]

Very lovely! Definitely going to play this one 😄

[@meesterdennismuziek6662]

Tim, geweldig dat je door zijn muziek te blijven spelen/tutorials maakt en daarmee Marcel Dadi eert. Wie weet dat je ooit op je 'lijstje' Au Revoir Mon Ami (Farewell my friend) van Buster B Jones (Brooks Bobertson) hebt staan. Ook een briljantje. Hoe dan ook: Great job (again) Tim! (dear gitarists, watch the rhythm of the thumb, that's not easy).

[@TimVanRoy]

Bedankt! Buster B Jones (en nog meer Dadi) staan nu met stip op de lijst voor de toekomst, al vrees ik dat veel Buster B Jones dingen voor mij lastig gaan zijn. Ik speel namelijk zonder lange vingernagels en bij Buster B Jones spelen die naar mijn inschatting een heel grote rol. We zullen het snel merken eenmaal we er aan beginnen 😅

[@gaussino84]

Where can you buy that red smartphone holder he uses in the video?

[@starkrieger21]

Awesome seeing you playing that lovely tune. Learning it would have prob. come a little easier having had your tutorial. I find that especially these little "bum chucks" (ghost notes?) make you really feel the groove, but are quite hard to incorporate into the playing

[@guitarista666]

They shouldn't be. They are fitted in just the same way you would incorporate a melody note in a song. Instead of, say, playing a melody note, just throw in a "bum chuck" which is an easy thing to do.

[@TimVanRoy]

What I learned when picking this song apart is that it is by far the easiest to play the entire thing with only your index finger and thumb. If you stick to that method the "ghost note strums" fit into the picking pattern in a very natural way. As soon as you start adding more fingers in the picking hand it becomes harder to pull off!

[@Octoknight64]

I went to a guitar store in the 90´s and asked the salesguy which Marcel Dadi’s CD I should buy. He answered : « I can’t choose between my kids ❤ » it was Marcel in his store 😅

[@TimVanRoy]

I didn't even know he ran a cd store! That's a great story! Did you get a discount? 😁

[@holzhausholz8215]

So glad to see this lesson! Marcel was one of the greats and this is a classic song- I can't wait to learn it! How's the guitar build coming along?

[@TimVanRoy]

It was about time we did one of Marcel's songs! The building project is still alive, but Peter and I have to align our schedules to make a few tough choices 😉

[@holzhausholz8215]

Good luck! I'm excited to see and hear how it turns out.

[@WSBM]

Innovative camera setup on the neck to get the right hand!!!

[@TimVanRoy]

Made by the people of the "Cracking The Code" channel (they focus on picking technique). The only problem is that it takes away the ability to edit mistakes, so I now have to play every single one of these covers in a single take 😅

[@miatovich8539]

Hey Tim, have you managed to figure out the song T.E played as a tribute to Marcel at the 1997 DADI MARATHON concert

[@TimVanRoy]

Not yet! It's still on my "to do/to check" list 😅

[@RadSergey1987]

Хорошая музыка! 🙂 Тим, когда сыграешь Поезд в Дюссельдорф? 😀

[@TimVanRoy]

Иногда мне правда кажется, что вы, ребята, пытаетесь меня убить! 🤣

[@RadSergey1987]

@@TimVanRoy ты не убиваемый, огнеупорный! Сколько у тебя времени ушло на Cannonball?

[@TimVanRoy]

@@RadSergey1987 Это немного похоже на тренировку, чтобы вернуться в форму! Освоение основ заняло всего несколько дней, переход к более высокому темпу занял у меня несколько недель. Но тогда играть Blue Smoke и Doc's Guitar было легко, потому что я был в «правильной форме».

[@RadSergey1987]

@@TimVanRoy понял. Спасибо, Тим 🙂

[@gomes8134]

excellent. how hard is this piece?

[@TimVanRoy]

It is easier for the picking hand than for the fretting hand, as you need quite a few tricky chord shapes to pull this one off. But mostly it's a very unique piece to play, I have never played anything else that uses the same picking technique.

[@lucianomambelli8592]

Che diavoleria hai sul manico?

[@TimVanRoy]

Si chiama "Il Magnete". È un dispositivo che tiene il mio telefono molto vicino alla mia mano che suona. È così che ottengo quei bei primi piani della mia mano che suona!

You look so tired，take care❤

[@TimVanRoy]

That is my “resting face” I’m afraid 😅 I had just switched guitars and didn’t expect the first take to be “the good one”. I’m pretty sure I’m getting my hours of sleep, but my two toddlers are demanding too 😜 Thanks for caring!
