Kfir, you don't have to sing southern nights, just play it, I love that song. You'd be paying tribute to a great musician....

How can you play so good guitar?

[@abc3902]

[@razor4921]

Please make a video also for "They don't really care about us" by Michael Jackson 🙏🏻

[@dorseyblack9833]

Kfir never disappoints. Dude can play anything, and well. He doesn't need vocals, the guitar does that for him.

[@roberthartley4372]

he realy is awesome at palying, i would love to hear him play giule theme off streetfighter 2

[@rainboydotjpeg]

I like to call the guitar vocals “rock-a-Pella” 😉

[@alisonwood1541]

Never ever

[@raaz.uk07]

I know i can also play, it just requires countless hours of practice. Anyone can play 🙂

[@dorseyblack9833]

@@raaz.uk07 This is true, but some just have a flair for something that others take much longer to achieve. I've been playing 45 years and I have not reached his level; take art now, drawing or painting, and I bet that I could run circles around him.

[@LuckyOwl_]

Best version of this song I’ve ever heard. Ever. That arrangement was INSANE!!!

[@livestrongyeah]

You’ve got to listen to “Solo Of The Week: 10 Eddie Van Halen - Beat It tab” by David Escobar.

[@Martin-mt3wz]

Excellent job with this one

[@JazzyPhay15]

2:50 is the guitar solo but honestly I stayed for the whole video! Sublime!💐

[@destroyrebuild3444]

I have to say, after listening to you several times on this particular track; you could have stood up on any stage and played this acapella with no backing and killed it! The happiest thing about it is you did both Michael Jackson and the late Eddie Van Halen on this! I don't think anything could have been classier sir!

[@YTC1977]

Thanks for all the joy of music. Love from India.

[@pianoekket]

One of the coolest guitar solo of all time!

[@markherring3513]

Agreed...and Vito's solo in White Lion's "Wait" is next level too. maybe the two greatest solos ever.

[@alexmurphy5289]

Definitely top 10 no doubt and I will die on that hill

[@Marco1973est]

And just like that ; Michael and Eddie were both re created thru his guitar 🎸.......didn’t think I’d hear the solo as good as it was. The riips and screams were awesome and the music flowed to a tee. Bravo 👏🏼!

[@teejayhirst3429]

Eddie himself would be proud of that! You are an insane guitarist!

[@AndreLuizSantosSavini]

Sua magia ao tocar é contagiante. His playing magic is contagious.

[@appelliefieaudiobooks1410]

That screaming tube distortion just blows my mind away. Love it!!!!

[@meisasaah]

RIP to the legends involved in this master peice of music: Micheal Jackson and Eddie Van Halen

[@samirahman20]

Steve Lukather from Toto did the other guitar work seperate from the Van Halen solo.

Steve is so underrated

[@mikepollack8277]

Nailed the EVH solo, then even did your own solo at the end! And the way you played the vocal lines was outstanding. A truly awesome rendition of my favorite Michael Jackson song. Probably THE best cover of it I've ever heard . Well done sir!

@@oceancrosby4578 he didn’t tell them, but they knew as soon as they heard the solo that it was Eddie. When he asked how they knew they said “Eddie nobody plays like you, you’re not fooling anyone”. If that’s true that’s legendary lmaoooo

@@oceancrosby4578 I also heard that he refused to take any payment from MJ and was just “experimenting”. He never received any money after all these years. These are all stories I’ve read/heard, I’m no sure how much of it is true but it’s cool to think about
