Amazing play! The song is one of the most underrated song by Yngwie. I have loved the song since 1986.

[@ClassicSoloSpotlight]

Thank you very much. I consider "Crying" a true masterpiece of guitar dynamics and musicality.

[@flauss]

It's definitely a masterpiece!!!

[@michaelmuldoon2416]

Yngwie makes it sound 80’s and the 1700’s. Unique

[@joo4987]

Holy sh..! That was insanely accurate playing...a true masterpice👍

[@nightsyrkahcum]

Lots of them tasty licks. Love Malmsteen!

[@ClassicSoloSpotlight]

Right on!

[@rockstar1967]

Always thought this song represented his ability and never got recognized very much.

[@ClassicSoloSpotlight]

Truth

[@christerkristensen6233]

Man kan inte bli annat än imponerad…. Jag tror Yngwie själv skulle vara nöjd och hedrad över denna prestation👍 ❤

[@RothKholum]

One of my Malmsteen's masterpieces and my favorite from the guitar god. And you nailed it right from every bit and detail. Great work on your fretboard !!!

[@1saloranta]

Wow man!!! JUST RIGHT GOD DAMN MAN WOW

[@MrMvidz]

Nice and tasteful... one of the first YJM tunes I learned in the 80's as a teenager.

[@ClassicSoloSpotlight]

Thank you. It's a personal highlight for me.

[@theerawatech]

Incredible, yjm tone and vibrato on this is from anothet planet.

[@klextacy]

This was the Yngwie tune that hooked me, so many years ago Great job! Spot on playing, man.

[@ClassicSoloSpotlight]

Thank you sir

[@jeremiegregoire]

Amazing, as always. Reproducing anyone's else improvised playing isn't comfortable, but with YJM we're near to the impossible… To caught the spirit and the feeling of the song and make it yours… Such an accomplishment, well done, Peter :)

[@ClassicSoloSpotlight]

Thank you very much Jeremie. Bien dit comme toujours.

[@rmcoelho]

Absolutely amazing. Congratulations. I will not say that this song is or was underrated but it is for sure a masterpiece that many people do not paid the well deserved attention…at least yet even being almost 40yo. Congratulations again

[@ClassicSoloSpotlight]

[@ClassicSoloSpotlight]

Thank you. I tried to do this masterpiece justice.

[@MikahEternal]

Great job. I was actually doing something on another window and this came up randomly in the background, and I never would have thought it was a cover until I heard the improvisation. Beautifully done!

[@elipse4594]

I never was too fond of this song, but you gotta give credit where credit is due. This cover is, just like your other covers, so stupendously accurate it's getting scary. Small, intricate vibrato dynamics, legato exactly where Yngwie played it, consecutive downstrokes where Yngwie played them, you heard all these things and you grinded every passage to make this cover. This just oozes talent. Bravo!

[@ClassicSoloSpotlight]

Many thanks. Much appreciated.

[@bloodysmurf]

Agreed, very impressive. Would love to see a bit of classical vibrato thrown in as well.

[@jaconova]

Lol how can you not like this song? Clean your ears dude, with all respect.

I was more fond of some of his songs with vocals like Fire, On The Run Again, Magic Mirror. Great hooks

[@Mr.Nabil.Belhaj]

Amazing Job; the best cover on youtube. this is one of my favorites but the definitive Yngwie song for me is krakatau a very bitching song as the man himself would say 😁 too bad he never played it live as far as I'm aware

[@ClassicSoloSpotlight]

Krakatau is great. Obviously his tone and playing was a bit rawer and "sloppier", straight after the accident, but there's actually some superb melodic soloing on the album. A lot of heart and soul which fit the songs well.

[@errolnyp9653]

Awesome bro. Just as good as the original. 🤘

[@ClassicSoloSpotlight]

Thank you.

[@Chester_Cheese]

Absolutely amazing, Peter. Bravo, and Well done ! Not only is your technical mastery on full display, but also your excellent tone, attention to details of the performance, as well as professional production value of the video. Very clear, and superbly recorded. Any chance you might consider tackling Yngwie's "Flamenco Diablo" on acoustic? He never performed it live, nor are there any legitimate covers of this piece on KZbin. There is, however, a rather blatant and shameful Fake, in which the guitarist is shown playing, however the audio is simply the studio recorded version by Yngwie. Shameless, really. In any event, cheers, and please keep the great performances coming. :)

[@ClassicSoloSpotlight]

Thank you for the kind words. I'll have to check out that acoustic piece, I've never heard it. In the meantime you will have some acoustic YJM from "Disciples from hell" (and later on "Trilogy Suite") upcoming.

[@ClassicSoloSpotlight]

Here's an update for you Chester: I did some looking around and between all the strange videos of people with Covid masks, bass players and dancing videos of spanish girls, I heard a really nice instrumental that I haven't heard before. So thank you for that, I think I'm gonna do this one. I'm not fond of that super compressed acoustic tone Yng uses, so I'm going to try to do it with a more natural steel string sound. It'll be a fun challenge. /Peter

[@Chester_Cheese]

@@ClassicSoloSpotlight That is awesome, Peter. I am glad you enjoyed it. It is a real sleeper, by Yngwie. Very much looking forward to your interpretation. Cheers, John
