DESCRIPTION
“Stayin' Alive” by Bee Gees is a legendary song. I love it very much and finally I decided to arrange it and share it with you guys. Meg and I tried to give this video a 70s feel, with leather jacket, particular kind of glasses and clothing, colors and the grain. We are not Hollywood but hopefully you can still feel the atmosphere. We shot the video in front of an old green container outside and it's December, so it was pretty cold (I am wearing several layers of clothes).
To play the song in fingerstyle, I am using my lovely Serracini Guitar, which you can buy on my website. If you guys are interested, you can also download the tabs of the song from my website. It's a fun one to play!

Luca Stricagnoli! My favorite band

Haha...sooooo true!,

[@incessantpraiz5029]

FACTS!!!!🔥

[@complexunit]

I thought it was an orchestra

[@WhitestGuyEver]

That has to be one of the best use of harmonics I’ve ever seen.

[@zanusbluesman]

check out the ones of Tommy Emmanuel. he is outstanding

[@golfindolphin5625]

HAH

[@caseywilliams271]

I'm blown away how spot on all of the harmonics are.

Luca Stricagnoli is the best guitarist ever, but Daniel Padim is the Harmonics King. I recommend watching his channel.

[@sea-ferring]

@@jamesronancenita4480 he is extremely good but best ever is a stretch.

[@tonywolfemusic5920]

Have to agree. Tommy Emmanuel or Billy Strings are still my favorite, maybe, but you are 100% correct about the artificial harmonics this guy uses. I've never seen anybody do it like this. He has mastery of a few techniques that are absolutely mind blowing.

[@blairrowell2387]

Bwahahaha!

[@gregpaper6559]

underrated :D

[@rsolsjo]

I think what I love most about this performance is that he didn't go overboard on the crazy strums and techniques. He is playing the song in a really unique and challenging way, but he's still staying really true to the melody and beat and not just "showing off" for the sake of it. So many guitarists will ruin a song just to see how many crazy taps and strums and mutes they can do in three minutes.

[@vesperiadragon3221]

This has to be one of the main reasons I love Luca so much. So many times I hear someone's done a cover of some song and I feel they butchered the song because they tried to "be cool" and do all this extra stuff to showcase their skillz, but it's gone down a completely different path than the song. This song and so many other covers Luca does continues to stay true to the original, while simultaneously blowing my mind doing whatever other blackmagic fuckery he does with his instruments.

[@royhsieh4307]

u mean he played this true to the songs spirit

[@leechurchill1965]

He does the work of 2 guitarists, and a percussionist.

[@othonmazzoni7857]

And the vocals

[@trisbonky]

I've actually seen a science paper on him recently. Apparently he is part octopus and has parts of his brain in his fingers, which would explain his amazing talent

[@ReinventingTheSteve]

I read the same paper, you missed the fact that his heart beats to the correct tempo to keep his timing and he stretches his fingers and hardens his fingertips while he sleeps to save time developing his abilities while awake
