That feeling when the muscle memory takes over and you are just nailing those parts watching your hands on autopilot...the endorphin payoff must be off the charts. Respect ✊🏻

[@nebula_M42]

wonderful appreciation. it's like sitting to listen as the prime spectator of your own music

[@Flowwkage]

You just perfectly described my entire motivation behind playing music at all. One of the best feelings attainable imo!

[@boykidmanboykidman5420]

Im trying to learn this and i did but not up to speed, the fretting hand work is easy but the fingerstyle picking is so hard to do cleanly at that speed, maybe it would be a bit easier with the string width of a nylon but geez this is going to take so much practice, love this song though, much respect to this guy for this cover ❤

[@hugohildering3180]

Dude this is some next level guitar playing...

[@SimonMaciasII]

I know man, these guys are amazing. Thanks!

[@xXxThelegend27xXx]

@@rocapastel omg shut up any time anyone mentions that an artist is good someone ALWAYS has to come in and say that someone is better lmao

[@the1zeldafan609]

This is actually played better than the original. That's amazing.

[@mistercath]

Honestly, I agree lol

[@TidesofWarHighlights]

Almost sounds like different versions, I prefer this one.

[@bakedandsteaked]

I hadn't heard the original in a while. Listened to this a few times then went back to the original and this cover is so much cleaner than the original. I mean I don't remember the original being bad, but this cover almost puts it to shame.

[@henry2912]

Right? I love the original but this is just so clean. You can really appreciate the warm classical sound :)

[@midwesteigensheaf]

Apeirophobia is one of my favorite songs, and I come back to this cover several times a week. I agree with others in the comments who’ve said you played it cleaner than the original; this is phenomenal.

[@armanj4514]

i come back to this so much you have no idea

[@afas1995]

Well man, I don't usually put comments on youtube videos, but this one was an exception. Dude, your guitar playing is sick and your guitar sounds amazing, has really rich bass and classical sound. This was one of the best covers I've seen in my entire life. Keep doing what you're doing! Just subscribed! :D

[@Trevoorheees]

Since Tosin is being more active on his youtube chanel maybe he will do a video where he watches AaL covers. specifically THIS cover.

[@KOME11]

For others learning. Tuning is D Standard (Drop every string down a whole note). Part 1 - 0:00 Part 2 - 0:28 Part 1 - 0:55 Part 3 - 1:26 THE Part - 2:36 Part 4 - 3:29

[@KOME11]

Also, part 4 is just part 1 but plucked differently. Same chords.

[@Mureirsa]

Keegan Bradshaw a lot of repetition so beautiful 😍

[@PhillipFry3000]

Honestly, if someone has to be explained to, what D Standard tuning is, they might be better off playing something simpler.

[@cemyurdusev5129]

@@PhillipFry3000 people who play classical or spanish guitar do not usually mess with those tunings and can probably play this song much better than the electro guitarists that do...

[@ytpanda398]

@@cemyurdusev5129 oh for sure, us guitarists who use electric guitars tend to use hybrid picking at most, and I speak for a lot when I say we don't have long nails on our right hands due to the use of the pick and incorporation of fingerstyle with the fleshy bit of the fingertip

[@rawen127]

how can anyone be that good? let alone on acoustic. this is even cleaner than the album version. maaaaaaan

[@diamondhead5253]

Much better than the original imho; fuller, richer and no insufferable string buzz. No mistakes and very fluid playing, you have my respects as a fellow guitarist.

[@guyavn5504]

the "insufferable string buzz" in the original is what makes it for me. that grit really has something romantic to it to me, but this is incredible.

[@diamondhead5253]

@@guyavn5504That’s one interesting way to see it, but personally I find it unbearable and the sound is thin and compressed. Might sound great on a Polyphia song but not this, where it’s the only instrument playing.

[@hamzailarzeg]

Guitar buzz is exactly why its unique. Imo ofc

[@DeathBringer769]

Damn, I think you played it even cleaner than the original recording! Well done ;)

[@blakerodgers9050]

I come back to this every few months and always absolutely blown away.

[@cerealru1069]

You've made it to the recomendations. It's time to blowup. KZbin Recomendations: I'm about to help this mans whole career.

[@TheRandomSounds]

2:38 is disgusting. That tremolo, with alternating bass notes it’s such a pain. Well done sir! Bravo!

[@gabrielbrandao1997]

Few have the ability to play AAL songs and even less can do it with so much perfection. Congratulations, your talent is incredible...

[@cortewing4029]

That tremolo was perfect. You've come so far man. It's beautiful to watch such fruitful development. I wish for your, and many other's health.

[@MTahirAlaybeyi]

WHY ARE YOU NOT FAMOUS ALREADY?!???!!

[@SimonMaciasII]

I dunno dude, but thank you for watching lol!

[@eljapi9346]

Because Is not trap

[@Mureirsa]

I think ppl have clogged ears 👂 need to get cleaned

[@lalainaichane319]

Jesus Christ doing a backflip, now I need to learn that song. Your take is wonderful!

[@proddreamatnight]

Holy SHIT you just destroy the part at 2:38 so good dude

[@isaacmaxwell3475]

I legit come back to this every time I need some motivation to playing guitar, this is amazing man keep it up

[@calebbliss8626]

one of the most beautiful classical guitar pieces I’ve ever heard. You nailed it man.

[@drlly6876]

For the first 30 seconds - 4 chords are used. Am add(2), G#minor Dim 7, E, and Fmaj7#11/E

[@yfder]

But it's one step down, if I'm no mistaken: Gmadd9 - F#dim7 - D - Dsus4addb9 (I'm not sure about this)

[@omarvalenzuela4957]

The guitar is tunning in D

[@mm31740]

Fredy M. Riande yeah it’s in D Standard

[@maxwellingersoll8046]

I grew up listening to my dad playing really nice classical pieces on his guitar. To hear you play some of my favorite progressive songs is seriously firing me up. I can't believe I'm just now seeing your videos.

[@dougsheridanmusic]

Stunning, beautiful. You're gifted. I can only imagine the amount of work you've put in to get here.

[@danielsantibanez2580]

wow. the most clean cover I've ever seen

[@DennisTeti]

This piece requires monstrous dexterity. Good work 🎶 🎸 💎

[@lukeyear5148]

Dude, I started learning this recently, and honestly, I have even more respect for you now that I realise that even the first chord and arpeggio is a real Hell to play 😂 Keep being awesome

[@Ch3mG33k]

No doubt this is super technically impressive but dude, your tone is _so_ beautiful. Thanks for sharing this vid!

[@blotsmusic]

Hope Tosin saw or will see this. Amazing stuff!

[@drlly6876]

Been looking for covers of this song! This sounds really good bro

[@SimonMaciasII]

Thank you dude

[@kaka_papi]

This is absolutely beautiful playing dude. You killed it.

[@Bl00DmixedWithPoison]

The ascending and descending triads make my soul feel at peace with the universe

[@eyesforeternity]

No disrespect at all to our guys Javier and Tosin but you played it way cleaner than how it is on the record. Amazing work my brotha

[@Doughboy14145]

Dude, I've been waiting so long for someone to post a video of themselves playing with his. You killed it! Great job

[@kennethfrank2663]

absolute gas bro your technique is amazing keep it up!

[@DragonOfTheSkies]

Best cover of this song on KZbin by far!

[@JoaoOliveira-qb6vm]

i thought "hmmm this fingering pattern is not that hard! i should give it a try to learn that first riff" and then i tried to play the chord. you absolutely nailed this, jesus christ

[@abnereliabgonzalezruiz3043]

Ohhh man. You really don't know how much I've been wainting to see someone playing that magnificent song. Congratulations.

[@mixen24]

This song lives rent free in my head, so unique, im only just a beginner on guitar but want to learn that so badly this will be my first BIG piece to learn

[@vaust]

This is very well performed. And this doesn't take away from the great skill of the guitarist playing, but I think the people in the comments on average don't seem to understand classical training.

[@dezmondbarba3421]

Great job dude! I've never seen a cover that was so clean and clear on how to play it even! Thank you bro

[@stupidmonkey151]

One of the most genuinely impressive covers I've ever seen. So clean. You should have more recognition!

[@Baseplate-hr2eq]

You beat me to the cover, my friend. Fantastic job. The only section I have to smooth out is the solo... you know- THE solo. Great cover, I’ve noticed you even added a few extra notes here and there to add extra depth in the harmonies. Good call on your part, since the original is two guitars. Really adds the flavor. I’ll have my cover up soon enough, it’ll be my first video on my channel. Kudos to you, man. Respect from another (classical, but not limited to) guitarist. Keep it up.

[@SimonMaciasII]

Yeah I know THE solo, I couldnt really figured out all the notes for it, but its freakin beautiful. I'll be checking out your video dude! Good luck! And thank you for your comment! I really appreciate it.

[@alexmertens5269]
