Yvette Young - a map a string a light [original]

[@yvetteyoungmusic]

I will never stop!! And that means so much to me that you enjoyed it that much. Thank you so much :) You are very encouraging!

[@albertbloodstone5921]

Can I get a tab I'm getting sick of rewinding the first 20 seconds over and over again lol

[@raiyantyrone5132]

​@@albertbloodstone5921trust me bro, if it wasn't for my determination of transcribing a few of Yvette's songs, I wouldn't be where I am today

[@denglish5]

​​@@albertbloodstone5921she has a tab book for the whole acoustic album. The song is in FACGAE if you want to have a go at transcribing it yourself.

[@blakemagnus6633]

She didn’t stop. Best decision ever 😁

[@jenewbee]

This is ten years old the KZbin algorithm is being wild with recommendations right now

[@umokay1991]

I can't even imagine trying to sing or even speak while playing guitar licks like those. That's freaking impressive.

[@yb9302]

It's not that hard after a while. Well at Yvette's speed it's still hard.

[@TerminatorZXY]

@@yb9302 It's still hard even for her. She just practices a lot.

[@daemonk756890]

Yeah it is just a practice thing. I didn't know how I'd ever be able to sing over finger style with a different rhythm between lyrics and guitar, but I've recently tried singing Fast Car with the help of some videos which basically say what you'd expect, just go slow to start off with and build it up, and already I'm starting to be able to do something that I found nearly impossible before.

[@nolasylla2095]

@@daemonk756890 thank you for this, I love singing and wanted to buy a guitar to practice singing with but I was so hesitant because of how hard it looks to sing while trying to play the guitar as a beginner. But this made me understand that I'm young and have many chances to practice over and over again until I realize what I thought was once impossible, is something completely possible just as you mentioned.

[@yvetteyoungmusic]

F#A#C#G#A# F but you can definitely transpose it down to FACGAE Fish And Cats Get Along Everyday!

[@anthonymoses8182]

is that the tuning? im afraid id break my strings trying to get my E to a F#

[@manboyy5347]

Anthony Moses tune it to facgae and put a capo on the first fret like she does if you need help

[@JB-ml6ir]

♥

[@toyoenjapon]

how young were you on this video? I'm inclined to believe 21 because of your age, but you look much younger than that. It's impressive, can't get over how much of a killer tune this song is, and how you massively crush it. It's really amazing.

[@Nicmccu]

It's so weird to think that one of the greatest songs/musicians I've ever heard exists just on KZbin with 20,000 views. I feel like this is on another level and not just deserves, but demands more attention. Absolutely incredible .

[@justmart4455]

Hey hey hey

[@dm6801]

You called it Nicholas!

[@corruptedstudiosentertainm3455]

150k now, so that's an improvement anyway.

[@PaulVRo]

yep! true.. things will come in due time for her as well but man.. how lucky we are to know her

[@legomaestro2079]

Words

[@DLCoker666]

2:07 I've never seen anyone use a capo like that

[@justmart4455]

Woahhhh

[@BooPedro]

Pretty innovative i must say

[@legomaestro2079]

Riiight!?

[@cleangoblin2021]

Holy fuck. It's like she decided that its a tremolo

[@xyz.anonymous]

You are a once-in-a-lifetime artist and musician.

[@yvetteyoungmusic]

thank you so much!!! There is my bandcamp but don't check that yet! I Plan on writing maybe 1 or 2 more songs and releasing a solo acoustic ep in a few months :) I'm flattered you would want to buy it!

[@kebb0]

it's kind of beautiful how much you have accomplished since this video/comment, both technichally on the guitar and with your carrer.

[@slicehyperfunk]

This song threatens to make me cry every time I hear it, and I usually count the amount of time between crying in years.

[@mattthehatt99]

Yvette, I doubt you’ll see this, but this was the first song I sent to the woman I married. Your work is spectacular and thank you for making songs with such an ethereal beauty. I hope to see you play live some day and wish you all the best

[@preetimehtre3230]

I feel the reason she plays so good is because she plays from her heart and her heart so complex it's shown in her music ❤️

[@enaidealukal4105]

It basically goes without saying at this point that Yvette is one of the very best guitar players in the entire world... but what an amazing voice! And effortless pitch! While playing insanely complicated guitar parts! Just an incredible musical talent.

[@chickenfingurzz8091]

I love metal. And that is to say it's about 98% of what I listen to on a daily basis. But this, THIS girls songs are so amazing.

[@cottoncandy113]

I'm tearing up... Your music just hits home. Just wow. I have no words.

[@ConnorShawMusic]

Ahh I love this so much !! All your music new and old is so enjoyable 💯🙏❤️

[@lynxfilante]

I'm so blown away by this original song from 11 years ago. the music and the lyrics and your voice are all incredible beautiful

[@annikalee3351]

i have chills, everywhere, throughout the entirety of the song. i'm enamoured, i'm in awe, i'm so so in love with your music. thank you for sharing yourself with us

[@empspxce]

It's so crazy how you could sing and play like that at the same time, amazing skill.

[@yvetteyoungmusic]

hahaha I'm sorry I keep on raiding your brain! Lately I've had smashmouth stuck in my head for some strange reason....been trying to get rid of that! And I'm very flattered that you enjoy my music! Thank you so much for the encouragement :)

[@owl_punk]

what smashmouth song was it? 0-0

[@tonymatthews9546]

No matter how often I hear the song, I'm always mesmerized not just by her skill or voice but also just how beautiful of a song it is. Amazing this is 9 years ago.

[@notsamoht]

been here listening to this since 2015. one of the greatest performances i have seen.

[@thathaeyang]

Seeing how raw this is. You hear the imperfections and the frustrations. This really led to amazing things.

[@matthewhack6510]

i've never heard her sing before... i'm not crying, you're crying

[@johnwestbaymusic]

Lyrically AND Musically, one of the most beautiful pieces of music I've ever heard! Thank you!

[@kennethschweighardt4920]

Yvette, beautifully done. If this music is an expression of who you are, you must be an amazingly beautiful, complex and creative woman. Thank-you for sharing!

[@ЯковТокарев-ы2х]

you have become so much more of you then anybody could ever have

[@djguzzy10]

Wow!...yvette. Tha k you for this song! I was very depressed about my playing and was on the urge of quitting. But this song. This song has given me hope. Thanks for the music you write and inspiration you give. I'm going to give 2015 a kick in the ass, and show it that I would t give up on my playing! Thank you for this song!

[@nicolestaylor5544]

The KZbin algorithm brought me to this song at 2:30am and I’m glad it did! You inspire me to keep on practicing the guitar and from this video and now, all the practice you’ve done definitely shows! Absolutely amazing Yvette!

[@nollniosjutton]

I've gotta say, I haven't felt this feeling your music gives me since I began listening to music. NEVER STAHP! You and your band can consider yourself to have a new fan! And good wishes from Sweden.

[@faytherogue1708]

I'm so late to this and all of her work. She's amazing. I love her.

[@joezzles]

This is absolutely gorgeous, Yvette. Your musicianship is inspiring and I'm thankful for all of your music ^_^

[@mjs3764]

I must have been living under a rock not to have heard of Yvette Young before now. WOW!

[@nicholashanson8252]

Man yvette young is a genius. These note choices are wicked!

[@Rodoadrenalina]

Fetus yvette is so cute, and so different from today. This is life before dank memes.

[@Honestly1114]

Tomas Tur She tours and stuff right !? With an instrumental band?

[@powbobs]

Tomas Tur The lyrics were already dark though.

[@gish2465]

Our cute early Yvette.

[@PaulVRo]

nothing has changed

[@Xixbalba]

Just amazing. I’ve had this song saved in my Spotify for a year now. You are incredible.

[@MrHurtconveyor]

AN Elite master . Thankyou Yvette. You have Amazing influences And Desire..... You had the ability today to take me to another place with your music. Thankyou so much... needed it

[@Emilsonlim]

This is so good!!!!!! It's very very hard to pick sing while playing the riff. Most of us can chords it. She comes up with her original music and style that is so organic and admirable. And her voice is beautiful and the guitar techniques is beyond noobs like me. Go Yvette you rock!!!!!!!

[@Trackformers]

What an amazing artist.. Thank you for posting this..

[@Trackformers]

Thats is so beautiful.. got teary eyed while im glad i found this!

[@superbhasard9369]

... une étoile 🌟 qui illumine notre quotidien 🤓👍 ...

[@toddmudrick98]

Those lyrics gave me goosebumps, haha. Especially going along with this tune. So good!!

[@doomscrollergyatt]

I love this song and this old video of you. I listen to this all the time on spotify and almost cry every time

[@ScruffMcBuff]

This song has been an inspiration to me for so long in my life. It's so beautiful. I started learning it yesterday. Wish me luck! 😊

[@xgrizzlyx93]

I literally don't even know what to say. Once again stumbled upon another amazing and captivating artist.

[@dannyolson22]

Beautiful composition and guitar playing- and singing! I could listen to you play guitar all day! Love this one!

[@zmbieblaster66]

After watching about 4 of your videos and collabs, I finally stumbled upon this one...found out you can sing as well...then began to cry out of pure inadequacy...keep up the good work, I hope you go far because you more than most deserve it!

[@reeewhydoihavetochangethese]

This will always be my favorite of yours. I believe this was the first time I heard you sing as well and it really pulled me in. Great to have seen your progression since, truly talented.

[@reeewhydoihavetochangethese]

Back again :')

[@squ34ky]

Wow, a younger yvette.

[@bearnando]

Since young, you were already a potency in talent right? So adorable!

[@kylejennings819]

i don't know how im finding your music so late... but its so therapeutic! and since there are no tabs online, this angle makes learning it much easier. Thanks for this!

[@Lanman106]

Holy moley! The amazing playing and wonderful voice! I've found a new artist to follow. What a beautiful song.

[@thedrearybrain]

To sing and play something on the guitar so intricate at the same time... she's unreal

[@NickDeVincentis]

TOO GOOD. damn. the playing, the singing, the natural sound. perfect

[@2113-e1m]

I can only imagine how good it would be to see you play this live. Sick. 🤘🤘🤘

[@theeveningcolor1]

Your coordination is off the charts. Wow, you have a gift.

[@ScoutFinch44]

So haunting & beautiful. You're very talented!

[@Arcarsenalpaintball]

This is one of the most beautiful pieces of music i have ever heard in my life. You are great!

[@SirChaiGuy]

...to feel~ my skin... I had chills! So much beauty.

[@BROKENMAN1981]

2 years too late but, thank you for the tuning! I have been using it on my bass and I am absolutely loving the variety in what I am able to play so seamlessly

[@MrRockAlive]

Absolutely breathtaking. Please keep writing music, i've never heard something so soothing.

[@Schmoopies]

Pure, unadulterated TALENT. Simply beautiful

[@darthkareem111]

I can't help but imagine the contortionist working on this song, the ambience would work really well with some heavy vocals lightly in the background

[@saintanic4865]

You'd probably be a Dance Gavin Dance fan if you haven't heard of them already

[@Steve-yz3ez]

I heard this song on Spotify and I cried. I literally cried. Now I fall asleep to it every other night or so (it’s in my sleep playlist)

[@LarsxLeia]

Pt 1 is stress release, pt 2 is relaxing/sleeping

[@sadakojh]

this composition is touching. and your acoustic has a sweet tone.

[@jeremyrodriguez324]

Omg! This is my first time seeing a playthrough of this song. I knew the guitar part was tough BUT NOT LIKE THIS! How are you doing this! Lol. And your voice is just like the recording! I'm so impressed. Yvette, you're the best!

[@SuHAibLOL]

How do you sing and play like that all at the same time... I don't say this often: you are absolutely talented! Perhaps a great amount of hard work can get anyone anywhere but clearly, you exceed that. Love this song.

[@madpistol]

Subscribed. You have an unbelievable gift and are ridiculously talented! Love your music!

[@yvetteyoungmusic]

Charlie you make it so easy to be nice to you!! haha and you flatter me. Thanks so much, I really appreciate your encouragement!! :)))) super grin!

[@justinwolf148]

Still my favorite song by Yvette other than Ares.

[@vedangarekar1390]

Same. Both songs help me deal with different circumstances.

[@Dekedence]

Followed you for like 3 years now ... KZbin algorhythm randomly decided it was time for me to see this!

[@3386-b8h]

you are one of the greatest musicians of our time. LOVE you

[@WestseedGroove]

My friend just told me to look you up. 20 seconds in I had to stop what I was doing just to take this in. Fucking brilliant! Can't believe this hasn't spread like wildfire!

[@lettucebeknown9728]

This song is beautiful! I always listen to the ep on Spotify! Keep up the amazing music! ❤️

[@franzenmusic]

Such natural beauty. Guitar like a forest stream. Subtle.

[@cbsaulren]

What a gorgeous soul has she

[@kevinberstler]

What a beast! So good. Thanks, Yvette.

[@stuartbarclay129]

I had seen the photo for this vid a few times and didnt listen as I was sure it was a cover/lesson vid from a stranger. Looked closer. To think I only discovered your music 7 months ago and here you were 7 years ago - we are all lucky ducks to get to enjoy your art :)

[@grimmreaper2308]

one of most hear touching and epic composition I've come across on KZbin + the cute Faces is a added bonus .

[@yvetteyoungmusic]

thank you Bill!

[@AVNDRfound]

oh snap. I've never heard this before and this might be my favorite song from you.

[@yvetteyoungmusic]

Thanks so much Josh!!!

[@yvetteyoungmusic]

of COURSE i'd remember!

[@Dwykid1]

Your songs just have this horrible habit of getting stuck in my head for days at a time. Why must you do this to me??? Either way, your'e one of my favorite music discoveries as of late.

[@mishstark]

i've had this song in my head for MONTHS and couldn't remember enough to search for it but I finally found it again :D

[@yvetteyoungmusic]

Thanks so much Steven!!

[@gogogo123454321]

this is literal magic to my ears i'm so glad i have the pleasure of knowing of this ^^

[@prettymaladies]

this is beautiful deep and soo intricate.. virtuoso gal ☆

[@fruzzberiee]

You my friend is amazzziiiinnnnggggg

[@jtnielsen6507]

Wow. You just saved my day. What an amazing song. :)

[@JohnCrichton]

Your music helps me release the overwhelming feelings I have for an ex lover. It gets the tears out, and I feel much better.

[@blob3106]

When a song still brings chills down your spine.

[@chancethrash]

Still loving this

[@yvetteyoungmusic]

thank you so much :) I won't be stopping anytime soon!

[@gtrose82]

If you would release a tab pack for this, I would pay for it. Completely worth it, and you deserve that.

[@yvetteyoungmusic]

Thank you so much!! I'm really happy you like it!

[@yvetteyoungmusic]

Aw Thanks so much Charlie!!! That means a lot to me!

[@kudwafuu]

time passed, but im still in love with this song :)

[@tilourcollapse9891]

This is so good. A true artist right there. Hands down amazing.

[@yvetteyoungmusic]

Thank you!!!

[@nickparsons337]

Such intricate melodies to waltz with one another; incredible to say the least.

[@iamWilliams94]

This is by far one of the greatest songs I've heard in a while. KEEP THIS UP :'D
