[@cayenneman08]

One of the greatest solos in rock!!!

[@marioguti9887]

Yes it is, metal fan here but man that solo is pure fire, great feel, lots of tasty licks and it's really hard to play perfectly. Guy in the video nailed it 👌

[@johnb.2111]

I have always thought this was one of rocks great solos. People have argued with me saying there are much harder solos to play. It’s always been my contention that technically difficult does not always mean a particular piece of music sounds better. ( Not that I consider this a easy solo. ) The Ramones have long been one of my favorite bands. I learned to play guitar on their songs. It’s not complicated or difficult music, ( but you do gotta keep those down strokes flying. Lol. ), but it’s still wonderful and fun music. This song will always remind me of cruising in my buddy’s car in the summertime. He had this song on a mixtape. Man I’ll tell ya, we had such great music then. Didn’t we? The best. I wanna go back with eyes that appreciate what was all around me. If we had only known then how good we had it…

[@TheVideoLounge]

@@johnb.2111 Indeed, it's not about difficulty, it's about intuitive playing and in context with the rest of the song ie. you can't just lift it out from My Sharona to examine it like an insect, and that's what makes it the greatest solo of all time in _pop_ music.

[@Jp421JP]

THE greatest.

[@clete3977]

Dude you are fantastic. I think this is one of the best lead breaks of all time, and you killed it. All the magazine polls point to Comfortably Numb (which is indeed superb), Stairway, Hotel California, etc. But I think this is better. Imagine the creativity and dexterity of a 25 year old Berton Averre when he created this solo. He could play this well AND looked a little like Jim Morrison? That's one blessed MF'er. I've been afraid to even attempt this solo since 1979. I bow to you sir.

[@ihatemalta]

Man... This is the ultimate BEST - especially at 1:07 mark. It sounded like he was sending a morse code. Wow!

[@fry9700]

There are a lot of great versions of this, but I think you have really captured it better than the others. Whole thing is so fluid and smooth, the feel is perfect.

[@azukimama3912]

懐かしすぎる〜😂　伝説の、一発屋だけどすきだったな〜。

[@charlesbaudelaire8261]

Iba a buscar los mejores covers de solos de guitarra de My Sharona, simplemente hermoso... Ya no había que buscar más... Este cover es el mejor...

[@clete3977]

Si

[@nosliwkramkram4691]

Ive been learning this solo for 4 years and not even play perfect as you do. Kudos to you sir.

[@betterhealth6910]

” 実はGuitarSoloが気持ちイイ！ ” という一曲ですよね☆ 軽やかな演奏で気分も爽快です☆

[@strato59]

ギター始めた頃の中2の時、観に行ったのを憶えています！その時は弾けなかったですけど、弾けたら気持ちいいだろうなって当時思ってました！

[@polarisabear144]

Didn’t miss a note. Absolute masterpiece!!!

[@scbill88]

Perfect solo…works up the neck and then back down with tasty licks all along the way.

[@lucienohh3163]

This gotta be the best version I’ve seen

[@richmadrid9563]

Most accurate version I've seen so far!

[@louissmith5298]

Good job and loved the camera angle. Really showed how much technique is required to play this solo. 👍

[@user-pw5xp5wr1k]

ウイスキー飲みながらこんなの弾けたらカッコイイだろうなぁ！ 憧れる！

[@clete3977]

Si

[@tbone8723]

One of my favorite guitar solos of all time and you just fucking NAILED it

[@Augfordpdoggie]

i never payed attention to the 102-110 part before the way i did earlier today....and had to search this out. but that alternating doubles, triplet, quintuplets variation, is one of the most brilliant things I have ever had. tough to copy, but even more brilliant to come up with....excellent job

[@Outdoorcookwarereviews]

This was the most technically well thought out well phrased guitar solos of the 70s ground breaking actually a forerunner to the beautifully constructed solos of the 80s hairbands

[@gtripmusic2906]

I always thought it sounded '90s but from '79

[@papa_pt]

I'll figure you for forgetting all the incredibly phrased steely dan solos from the 70s

[@Outdoorcookwarereviews]

@@papa_pt Steely Dan's guitar solos are technical precision, however they're melodic complexity, is more in the direction of a smooth fusion of jazz, rock, and blues elements. Walter Becker and later, Larry Carlton, brought a unique blend of sophistication and groove to their solos, featuring intricate harmonies and tasteful phrasing. Their solos were more bluesy and soulful to intricate and jazzy.

[@papa_pt]

@@Outdoorcookwarereviews yeah you make a good point. Especially in terms of whose solo style really led into the bombastic, glam arena 80s solos. Steely would hire a session guitarist for almost all solos. Larry Carlton like you said, on kid charlemagne and don't take me alive. Also Skunk Baxter with that monster solo on my old school

[@estuardoruiz5373]

Impressive!!!

[@franciss.d.8048]

Este solo de guitarra cuando escucho la cansion, me lleva a otro mundo

[@rochellecabanero6848]

うまいですね 見ていてとても気持ちいいです！ 昔観た映画のサントラに収録されていたのを思い出しました。 私もこの正月休みに練習してみます　笑

You nailed it bro' ! Well done. Always loved this solo

[@TerryAllenSwartos]

Outstanding! I agree with the comment about the camera angle helping emphasize the technique and your skill.

[@1962jrl]

Nicely done!

[@juncapulong1911]

Great👍👌

[@DJSmoothie]

Always loved that solo! Great job! Saved me the job of learning loL! Always thought The Knack got a bad rap, could have been so much more.

[@marioguti9887]

I didn't know that got a bad rap...I was young when this came out and I remember them having a lot of hype about being the next great band but they really didn't become that but I didn't know they got a bad rap. Can you explain?

[@MrShiddy1]

👏👏👏. Super Job.

[@kikojavier3804]

[@Paul-fq9pj]

Good job 😊

[@patrickthomas30]

NIce job!

[@RDMUSIC_]

Yeeah🤟

[@nkyryry]

I hear a lot of people fudge up the little 00:59 lick. You nailed it👍🏼

[@ricksturgis6403]

You played it better than the guy from the knack

[@kingofallwhites]

What effects did you use? You didn’t have enough sustain to hold that high note?

[@tooley30040]

Bad Ass!!!!!

[@mikemyros4142]

Sweet ! Now I need to go change my pants....

[@theimaginaryboy7210]

[@moisesislas3820]

Era tocar la guitarra no hacerla cantar de emoción!!!...jajaja

[@costacervoneguitar5451]

[@leftundersun]

​1:16 your only mistake was to play with this strange tempo, you should play off the snare

[@peterdaniel66]

gotta give a mention for that awesome bass at the very beginning..

[@crum62]

Shit song but superb solo. Nice
