You have no ideia, its awesome

[@3hxde]

Some of the chords are wrong but the riffs are pretty close

[@davidsimmons2935]

It’s actually not that hard take some practice but I promise you can get it

I still find it more satisfying to hear your cover instead of others' :)

[@fretzl]

aw shucksss thanks : ] : ]

[@viartwork]

I still do ever since I found this cover when it was posted

[@RUConfuzzled21]

someone who makes a really good cover and actually puts in some tabs for us folk who want to play their version. TTuTT

[@RIP123]

ikr? they're often just locked behind patreon!

lol @ being anywhere near popular enough to do patreon perks haha still would keep the tabs public tho :v

Ke Don tbh you don’t even need to sing it because the guitar is singing the music.

[@skinnedkneez2744]

I’m really impressed you were able to learn this and play it so well :0 I’ve been watching it in slow motion to try to get the notes, but get lost around 0:14 :( I think many people including me would appreciate it if you did a tutorial. Nice work :)

[@fretzl]

hey thanks! : ) there are tabs in the description of that helps: pastebin.com/3zSgWbWB I don't know if I'm cut out for doing tutorials D: but I'm free to answer questions if you've got em : ]

This cover helped me when I was in a really bad period of my depression, I have a lot of gratitude, love your works, thank you so much

Yay!! I haven't picked up any instrument in a long time (I used to play the double bass for school and the bass gutair for a hobby, and occasionally messed with the gutair we have.) And listening to this song makes me want to get back into playing something, regardless of what instrument it is. These covers have done wonders for my self motivation, they sound absolutely beautiful. Thank you for posting this!

I love this soundtrack so much and hearing the whole song, solo and all, being played beautifully like this gives me tears of joy. Please keep doing what you're doing because it's so incredible. Thank you!

[@JKumaD]

It took me 2 months to get the intro down, but the sheer speed at which you play and feel it makes it sound so different. gonna keep practicing till it sounds like this.

[@won_n1e]

2020 i watch this everyday and it makes my day happier

[@milkmusic2756]

Learned it in a frustrating 3 hours, I can now play it comfortably and to tempo.. Until 1:37 where I struggle, other than that thanks for the tabs!

[@Arthur-b5l3q]

Have you managed to play the whole music in beat?

[@racquelrobinson3030]

I saved this to my watch later. I'm gonna get my guitar, HOPEFULLY, PUTTING IT INTO THE UNIVERSE, in a few weeks, and Steven Universe was one of my biggest influences for getting it. I'm so grateful that you put the cords in the description box. Can't waits to learn to read it and start practicing.

[@beckwells25]

Alright, 25% speed, let's do it again... I'm at about 28 seconds at the moment, (post about 3 collective and inconsecurive hours of just rewinding and relistening) and about to hang it up for the day. Thank you so much for this video, I think I'm actually going to be able to learn this song finally after a year of pretty intense procrastination.

[@carlos_adventures9018]

Dude I’ve been putting hard work into this song for months and I won’t stop

[@fretzl]

ah dang nice!! proud of u

[@carlos_adventures9018]

I’m currently trying to learn how to play this song and it’s so... Beautiful and yet so hard to learn. But I’m sure in the end it will all be worth it.

[@sevenhanson3879]

You play so beautifully! Its astonishing to watch!

[@angel-flores-en1yb]

Nah I heard the beginning and thought it was gonna be like the regular song with chords then starts playing that and the melody It’s just amazing 🔥🔥🔥

[@brittpeep8523]

Yay! Thank you so much for reuploading your tabs! 8D I love your cover

[@RAAR-l1r]

The nostalgia hit hard with this song and this cover.

[@molly2076]

This is genuinely so impressive If I wasn't so lazy I would learn the shit out of those tabs, (best person ever for putting tabs AND performance notes) but for now, I will just watch astounded, keep it up!
