[@flatline9737]

after 16 years, and it's still the best guitar cover of this masterpiece!

[@2litersam]

Please don't ever take this down! I know it's not your kind of music anymore, but this song inspired me to learn the guitar!

[@uprmt]

Almost 12 years later, I’m still in awe at this every time.

[@Progenoid]

[@jin461]

When I first saw this, I had just about graduated college in 2010. It’s awesome to see there’s 3.5 million views now. Still the best cover of Lux Aeterna!

[@StrokeMotion]

I was here 16 years ago. Still a banger.

[@privateprivate1865]

Me too.. peace

[@KakeiTheWoIf]

IMO the best ever cover of Requiem for a Dream.

[@keiffactory]

I really love that sound at 0:53 mark. It has such a tense feeling to it, like you know shits about to go down

[@1epicrose]

Jay fyeah hahaha

[@johnj9976]

[@invertedpanda]

I started playing guitar with blues. I get a lot of people (on here, and in person) who miss my shred work, but honestly, I got bored with it. It didn't have the emotion that blues music does to me. I don't care about showcasing talent; I just care about making music, and having fun doing it :)

[@LiberAeternus]

That's awesome man, cheers to that! Do you mind me asking the guitar and amplifier you used in this video? I'm looking for a sound like this myself and can't really figure it out. Much appreciation!

[@nocoolwalker4572]

A STEEP ANOTHER VIDEO IS NOT GOOD !!!

[@serega4087]

Than intro at 0:52 got my heart racing. Can you explain how you that fingers trick? Sounds absolutely gorgeous. Also how to get that tone? Pedals and amp?

[@killedbyfeath]

This is one of those videos that made me drop my jaw when I started playing! still aspiring to become this godly at creating tunes to a set of tones. Really nice work man.

[@Miki-xh6fb]

Wise man...

[@fabiorosado]

This is by far one of the best cover ive ever heard, back 10 years and it still gives me chills

[@snuffydog8153]

A youtube gem. One of those old school youtube videos that stick with you forever. I'm back in 2024. Beautiful.

[@ixion025]

My first like on youtube... Still awesome !!!

[@ixion025]

I'm still there

[@CupCake-ec6wd]

6 years later?

[@TheHolySentinel]

This is literally my favorite rendition of this song. ever.

[@TheWickedRomancer]

I still come back to this video every now and then just because this is so beautiful.

[@biCARRIEous]

This cover came back to me in a dream. I can't believe how long it's been since I last watched this. I'm saving this somewhere so I can enjoy it more often. I've read your update, and I respect that you may not be doing this type of stuff anymore, but I hope you're thriving and doing whatever it is you love. I hope you're still making music of ANY kind. ❤️‍🔥

[@ed.sh1235]

This Particular cover has a special place in my heart, i was 19 years old when my cousin said to me, let me show you one amazing cover that i discovered, so on that summer (2012)we were listening to this, every single afternoon afterwork. Unfortunately my cousin passed way at 2019 at the age of 31. Now i am sitting and listening to this cover and remember the conversations i had with my cousin, he loved this song.

[@invertedpanda]

I'm so glad you have such a positive memory of this! I hadn't set out to do anything that would have an impact like this has, but it is heartening to hear stories like this.

[@thinkingmonkey8083]

Not playing "stuff like this" anymore? That's a shame, my friend, it's what made you famous. Over 3 million people watched you play this.

[@Duncanlewis248]

This made me pickup a guitar and start playing. Thank you.

[@okaypizza8877]

Amen to that. Good luck bro.

[@SSJ3rocks]

Guitar is a fun instrument to play.

[@Phoenix65]

This Video motivated me to buy my first very own electric guitar as a Teenager more than 15 years ago. It feel so Nostalgic watching it again. Thanks KZbin algorithm.

[@snuffydog8153]

I had a few reasons but this contributed to me picking up the guitar too when I was 14.

[@olenavolatile8827]

omg I found this version about 12 years ago, listened to lots of versions since then, but this remains the best one! It's powerful and pure, just as it sounded in my mind. Thank you for this. It doesn't matter what you play now, once you made THIS - that was worth it 🎶

[@ShawnaGraham50]

Sad you "don't play stuff like this anymore" you are very good

[@ocdeadly]

I still listen to this from time to time.

[@DomyTheMad420]

So sad to read that you don't care for this song anymore.. It's easily the single best version out there I could find :/

[@Romain54230]

13 years ! still remember when I first watched it.

[@apriloniamenji4473]

I listen to this when I play any online multiplayer game, I feel like an invincible juggernaught until I die...

[@thagoden]

Still Listening to after all this time, Still Love it!

[@AmemaX]

Out there is no better cover than this its so fucking perfect it gives me chills.

[@metaldetectorz]

[@Erasingmemorie97]

Best video on youtube! love this, very well done!

[@davlan1379]

J'écoute ce morceau que tu as joué avec ta guitare, depuis des années..... Quel plaisir, quelle jouissances.... Tu es un dieu vivant, trop fort.... Force à toi 💯💯💯💢💥💥💥💣💣💣💣💣

[@OurHereafter]

the good old days. I wish I could get back there somehow.

[@weakestlink41]

Thinking the same thing honestly

[@Cinamer]

You are awesome :)

[@hamadcheats]

*_Agreed._*

[@JustCrunch1]

2019 and after 12 years i still have goosed skin!

[@AndreSantos-dq2bv]

Eu vi uma versão dessa de 5 minutos. uns 10 ou mais anos atrás. Eu tinha baixado sem querer no site Krafta, nunca esqueci do nome dessa obra prima. " Requiem for a dream guitar"

[@Axle_J]

Its been years now, and i'm still coming back to this. Its fantastic.

[@volfan1nga]

HOLY SHIT!!! at the 1:40 mark!!!!!!

[@JamesFromTexas]

This is what I was hoping the new Metallica song would sound like!

[@Bighead900]

2023 bro and coming back to this cause its the hardest guitar cover ever 🔥

[@PicsartDudes-qf9zh]

old video but damnnnnnn

[@GokoQas]

2024 and ı'm stıll here

[@viktoria_barnes]

Same 🔥

[@invertedpanda]

Nope. The camera sucks, but that was all natural. I've played it live, and if my old college roommates wanted to chime in, they would tell you the same. Lord knows they heard me practice it often enough :) Also, at the time of recording it, I didn't have the software to do that kind of editing. :)

[@seniorbarends]

16 years! Still love it.

[@efetherman]

I have never seen the movie, 'requiem for a dream'

[@ixion025]

OMFG !!! xD u have to see it bro lol!

[@anonymuscarmona6398]

Muy bueno like 👍👍👍

[@OurHereafter]

This backtrack is dope

[@gtrsuite]

Interesting tone. I assume the duct tape is giving it that "compressed" sort of "smothered" tone. Interesting to say the least. I'm goon try the duct tape for kicks.

[@invertedpanda]

Actually, the duct tape is just holding the very cheap pickups in. It didn't seem to affect the tone much.

[@majid__jafari]

tone is great and fits to the atmosphere of the song. but it would've been better u took more time writing the solo. even a very slow and easy solo can impress more than a super speed dirty one. but good job anyway ;)

[@heikalaminuddin7968]

2018 here

[@swamiboo]

I have heard this for the better part of a decade and is usually the video I watch and listen to when I want to uplift my mood. Awesomely done and ... cannot think of what else to say ... will listen once again ...

[@PanduricaBlues]

God has a name!

[@AllRockAndMetal]

1:41 and 2:35 speed 0,5.....

[@mateuszklimek7981]

I know, i red the description but could you just tell me how to play that part from 0:50 and with track did you used to play with?

[@mikelgonzales72]

This video is LEGENDARY. It is great seeing all the people who've watched it so long ago but still coming back to watch this amazing cover🤘🤘

[@agentbuckwall2806]

How do you get the backmask sound at the very beginning?

[@invertedpanda]

I used the noise gate with a slow attack setting, that causes the note to fade in.

[@CombatWombat703]

Will Leffert Did you add any kind of reverb onto it?

[@EzioMaverick]

Will Leffert Sir would please do a tutorial for all the sounds that you get out of the amp. Even if you could show how to do it with guitar rig 5. I would really appreciate the help. Thank you

[@draeb2797]

Godlike 13 years later still 🤙🏾

[@prolongertube]

Hi! I'm from Brazil. I listened this record/version in 2008. Never forgot! Blows my mind 'til today!!!!

[@sacramentocheesehog9195]

So happy this is still here 13 years later, I still remember downloading this with KZbin converter and listening to it on my way to school in 07 lol time flies

[@LucasTheUltimate]

I can't believe you now think this isn't musical. What you did was an amazing musical masterpiece, and one of the most iconic shred covers of KZbin...

[@cocacola042]

This was one of the first videos I've ever watched on youtube and it was my first like. The nostalgia I got from this was amazing, 9 years came and went just like that and I still love this video

[@QuiQueEnrique0805]

I knew your version earlier but didn't know who made it. now i know and really, man, you're a genius who created one of the greatest masterpieces in music.

[@hankhonker]

I'm glad you're not taking it down I might not have found you otherwise and I'm going to check out your other stuff after I finish writing this. Thanks mate.

[@pliopov]

Hi, can you share it ? Thank you

[@Ipherix]

Still incredible 10 years later 🤘 I remember my brother showing me this when I was 14 or 15 and we lost our minds over it. Good stuff.

[@teatime1858]

Wow you are out of this world.. I'm back years later. I show this to everyone

[@ne0glitch]

Legendary will go down in history as the best guitar 🎸cover solo ever! I’ve heard it a few times and never gets old god lvl

[@weirdo2409]

OMG !!! this is still so good 13 years later !! I'm mind blown !

DUDE YOU SO ROCK!! THIS IS BEST GUITAR RENDITION I'VE HEARD. THUMPS UP

[@johnconnor4594]

This is a very unforgettable piece of music played this way. 👍

[@jakethesnake466]

[@LilJimmyTodd]

So, I was thinking to myself, "Wow, that doesn't look hard at all." Then you busted out with that epic "Bridge" I guess you can call it. Blew my mind. Good job.

[@Collossus212]

o.o at first... I was in the mindset of "This will be neat" and now... I have no words. o.o 10/10. Thats all I can say. Well done.
