(John Mayer) Slow Dancing in a Burning Room - Sungha Jung

[@vinnyvidivici]

I remember seeing this kid when a guitar was bigger than him, now he’s all grown up.

[@B0bi_007]

That's how people work

[@vinnyvidivici]

your mom Ok thnx

[@eurasiaennezahard8006]

so true

[@monkey_ish4117]

Man I was thinking the same thing. Time goes by too fast.

[@jamesmichaelcabrera9613]

Same

[@nkyryry]

I’m most impressed by his sense of time. He’s keeping almost perfect time here with no backing track or metronome. With a slower song like this it can be tough.

[@bluplr]

I imagine he recorded the audio wearing headphones with a metronome or backing track

[@oiseaubaladeur]

yeah his fingers don't match the audio

[@davidyang5274]

@@bluplr Maybe but it will be a bit weird to do it for just this video as he does not do it for his live concerts. The tapping helps keep time. It's pretty common in a lot of different styles of guitar playing.

[@oldbot64]

He has been doing this for a long time. Prodigies like them always seem to have an inner clock when they are born lol

[@Pugrug.]

It’s actually pretty easy with practice , i’ve been an varsity band and college level classical guitar and basically you just tap your foot. You could also tap your sting which is what he’s doing and it makes it impossible to get off tempo as long as you can tap with the tempo constantly.

[@zendyk]

This is brilliant, Sungha. Been listening for 12 years now and I'm never disappointed in your music. I look forward to another vocal cover. Please never stop playing. I'm such a big fan from the U.S. Got to see you play live a few years ago. It's one of the best memories of my life! And I'm almost 60.

[@zackdizzle]

zendyk same here Watching him since 2007! Amazing

[@joomee50]

Same here! From another a fan from US

[@Miido06]

I'm not in the same situation as you are, watch only couples of video of him, back then and now but I'm must say this is a very touching comment. Simple, honest and so sweet. Good to see those kind words sometimes in a while. Have a wonderful week.

[@kumentongwlangdating]

By saying this, you truly have low musical standards. The kid has skills but I'm afraid I can't call this talent. His guitar skills are okay, but not extraordinary.

[@Sound_Groove_of_America]

@@kumentongwlangdating better than most.

[@bryleandre3796]

I've grown up with Sungha, I started watching him when I was like 13 years old, and honestly, as I've gotten older I've realized more and more the difficulty, the technicality, and the nuances of his guitar playing, and one can't just help to appreciate him more.

[@TheZacdes]

what, as a kid still you understand the nuances:/ I would hope you bloody play, and play well to bignote like that kid:/

[@GabeWatchesAnime]

Same here and first time was introduced by mu guitar instructor, he played his River Flows in You video on the projector in class and till now my guitar skills can't seem to ever catch up with him

[@josrichi4742]

looks so relaxed and comfortable when playing it’s like effortless and natural to him

[@mariosaenz6801]

And us mortals are over here dealing with back pain while playing from our bad posture 😂

[@qpalzmsk1986]

There's not a single person who doesn't make a guitar face playing slow dancing in the burning rooms solo. Super satisfying.

[@aznkumiko]

It is so fascinating to hear Sungha Jung's style on a John Mayer's song ! Never expected that combination

[@huntre.]

You managed to pull every important note of both the guitar and vocals into one beautiful arrangement. Extremely well done!

If that's where your head's really at wait to you see the rest of this man's stuff and prepare to be hecken discouraged. However if you love this cover try out you're own adaptation of it 🙃 . Everyone plays differently and that is a good thing for without variety ,covers themselves would not exist.

[@Robstrap]

Imagine seeing someone do something and it inspiring you to quit, thats a pretty sad mindset bro
