Steve Vai - "Tender Surrender" | Singer Reacts & Musician Analysis

[@Tijuanabill]

Yeah the Steve Vai Ibanez signature models are absolutely gorgeous. Even the more inexpensive versions are insane.

[@richardkafka5625]

Ibanez Gem with monkey grip and climbing Ivy Insets! Beautiful!!!

[@danburns4003]

​@richardkafka5625 the inlays are called the tree of life

[@Ryoki_tenkai_muriokushu]

My dad managed to get the limited edition black one too!

[@d4mdcykey]

That man LIVES every note he plays, it is an astounding thing to watch, he is always right there in the moment on every song.

[@aarorissanen930]

I actually think this is one of the most perfect live performances ever. He actually played an insanely complex and intricate piece pretty much note for note in front of an audience and it was captured on video. Insane.

[@andymccallum8090]

the video is not a live performance. still amazing tho

[@MasterChiefBazzle]

I saw him and Satriani live a couple weeks ago, and the life performance is exactly as described

[@kanomorrow7622]

You should hear his song called “whispering a prayer” it’s like this but more feeling. He’s top 10 all time and still touring today! He also composes and is a very big deal in the composer circles! Great song and reaction!

[@batigo211]

Steve Vai is one of those few men who was cataloged as God of the Guitar, because he reached that level, along with beasts like yngwie malmsteen, Joe Satriani, Paco de Lucia, Michael Angelo Batio, among others, his versatility and agility in stratospheric levels

[@simondumoulin2254]

And yet, Rolling Stone magazine did not see fit to have Vai on their top 100 guitarists of all-time...

[@scotttrainer9704]

You can't leave Frank Zappa off the list of guitar greats. Steve and Frank were neighbors and good friends. Steve played with Frank's son after Frank's death.

[@Lee4364]

Steve transcribed all of Franks music to Catalog for him before playing with him for years before leaving on his own.. Steve will tell you he is not who he is today without Joe Satriani, Both who are from Long Island NY and he took lessons from him in his early years as a Kid

[@mikexxx11]

​@Lee4364 Those who know can hear a bit of Frank in everything Steve has done. And the song called Frank wow it's amazing

[@shortrandoms7010]

The emotion in this piece is so strong that any girls who listen to this piece must do a pregnancy test.

[@Tony-hs8mu]

He has been playing since the 60s.all of the guitar gods say he is the greatest.

[@andersgranstrom7128]

This song is a beautiful love act, in three parts.... Passionate, for sure! 🙂Just amazing!!

[@jimg1974]

Vai is one of the few masters of the instrument. He can literally play anything that his mind creates and feels. there are only a few guitarist at this level in history. Its a short list.

[@hanggabagaswara9965]

That's the highest skill of musician..speak your soul through your instrument

[@GS-xt8fu]

I have played a long time. I love jimmy and Hendricks. I must be honest and say over all? I do t think many are in his league, including Hendricks or page which is crazy to say because I love them both. Vai and SRV? They are another planet.

[@brettmarlar4154]

"Playing with his thingy "🤣😂🤣😂 That's called a "Whammy Bar ". He and Jeff Beck are the ultimate whammy bar masters! Vaughn is pronounced like "Von". I would also echo that Joe Satriani and Eric Johnson are musts to check out. I would also add Jeff Beck to that list (if you haven't already done so).

[@L.A55]

Steve Vai..One of the best ever..Millie, if you ever get a chance, whether it be a reaction video, or just on your own, please check into a brilliant guitarist "Tina S", and her cover of Steve Vai "For the Love of God" i believe she was around 16 when she posted her version on youtube.. i promise youll love it !

[@00govan00]

Phrasing and melody, groove, harmony

[@peterworth9403]

Always loved Vai. He can make you feel, put you in awe, stun you...whatever he wants. If you want one that's going to have you dancing around, you NEED to listen to "The Audience is Listening." It's an absolute jam. Another beautiful tune he's done, using a triple neck guitar, is called "I Know You're Here." The video is live, and great quality. I'd definitely go with the former first, though.

[@MrBedZeppelin]

Your Cat was jamming back there! Your taste is growing, your brother is right! You are creating great musical memories which will give you a lifetime of happiness. Though don't quote me. Thanks Millie!

[@caplondon]

A 🎸 🎸 🎸 God for real. Good reaction and introduction to his music. Thanks for sharing 🎉❤

[@jorgejaime4325]

Every time i hear the beginning of this song, i think he's going to play Villanova Junction by Jimi Hendrix

[@jimiewilliams7623]

Tender Surrender, is actually Steve's version of Hendrix's Villanova Junction.

[@SgtSousa92]

this guy also did the guitar on the Halo 2 Theme, just a fkn livin legend! If you want to hear a guitar cry then listen to Gary Moore! "Gary Moore - Still Got The Blues (Live)" with 89mio views and "Gary Moore - Parisienne Walkways - Live HD" with 66mio views. If you watch closely, he prefered to use only two fingers to play... also legend but already gone 🙏

[@survivor6381]

Yeahh

[@rebeccabailey527]

Tender surrender is based on jimi hendrix's villanova junction. The beginning is note for note.

[@justitia257]

Ciao Millie, Steve vai it is truly amazing. Do you know his song "For the Love of God"? Bye

[@andreafabbri7088]

Hot for a teacher and Yankee Rose with David Lee Roth if you really want to hear a guitar that expresses itself. he answers some questions with his Ibanez

[@allyhewitt1300]

This song really shold come with an "Adults Only* warning, cos it is sexy A.F.

[@1149775]

Greeeeeeattt!!!!

[@davidcandelaria4411]

going to see him in about a month

[@crabbbypattty]

howd it go

[@davidcandelaria4411]

great@@crabbbypattty

[@synthplayer1563]

This is a god.

[@timmooney7528]

Add Joe Satriani and Eric Johnson to your review list

[@dangrissom7367]

It sounds like the teacher in the Peanuts cartoons.

[@bhuplaysguitar]

6:35 like Donald Duck

[@melaninfactor7857]

How does a musician not know what a tremolo bars is? You don’t hear Hendrix or page while listening to Vai because neither guy could do or can do what Vai is capable of doing. At least your brother understands world class rock guitarist

[@RITH5150]

Great reaction sounds kind of jazzy type of guitar is some parts of the song

[@diverdown631]

Ckeckout his song" for the love of god" with the Amsterdam symphony Orchestra

[@マシュードーラン]

Steve Vai transcends dimensions, universes, time and space

[@elsanti8749]

Next Reaction pls Yngwie Malmsteen Black Star, Saludos

[@aleet9975]

Steve is an extraterrestrial

[@jeffher23]

Every Steve Vai fan at minute 6:00 be like: Yes.

[@shahih_bukake]

No he don't speak to instrument,he making love with the guitar 😂😂😂

[@fishguru73]

Give that guitar a cigarette🤣

[@fredzeppelin3969]

That guitar needs a cigarette.😂

[@zazune56]

If you like progressive rock listen to one of the leading groups Porcupine Tree. Watch the live in Tilburg song called Anesthetized. It will amaze you!

[@johng.8517]

Try some music by YES one of the greatest progressive rock groups of all time. You haven't reacted to them at all. They have many long songs that are masterpieces. Not your usual music. Some good ones include "Roundabout", "Close to the Edge", "The Gates of Delirium". "Awaken", "Turn of the Century"... Loads of good ones.

[@user-zl9qb3fx8tq]

I preferred the Steve Vai hired by Frank Zappa to play the unplayable guitar parts. 🎶

[@denisenjim284]

Have you reacted to Joe Bonamassa yet?

[@srt8rocketship241]

Wizardry

[@Valhalrik]

If you like Stevie Vai Try out Joe Satravani

[@nevermore5168]

Joe Satriani taught Steve Vai

[@johnbenz7573]

[@prathamdangi3388]

She means whammy bar

[@awansetiyawan8229]

[@joaocarlospartel8867]

[@Valhalrik]

Sorry Joe Satriani

[@rohitsanu1]

Lot of respect for Jimmy Hendrix but he doesnt come close to Steve Vai.

[@prathamdangi3388]

Jimmy Hendrix is overrated

[@przemeknowak2926]
