Always knew Keith Urban was a solid guitar player, but when I saw him and Mayer play "Don't Let Me Down" at Crossroads I was like dang this guy is incredible
Interestingly. Keith and John was better than Brad and John. I think Brad was too alien to John. I’m not sure but it wasn’t as good as it was on paper, and KUJM was better. Same can go for the BPKU collaboration...a bit of a let down. Still good but expectations were high I guess.
I took my wife to Keith Urban live in Madison Square Garden back in 2015 and he absolutely RIPPED! Unbelievable show. He made an entire arena feel like an intimate gathering. He's legit.
I love the country Keith Urban, i dont like the newer wave country songs he did recently, with snaps and drum machines, but the Country Keith Urban is just GOLDEN!!
@@smhmusics4510 check out the solo in Steal My Thunder from the same album. It’s pretty killer. The new album includes Forever, which has a killer solo.
I watched Keith urban around 1994 in nashville at a place called Jacks guitar bar, playing with the ranch band. the most amazing playing I have ever seen. hours of nonstop guitar.
Gonna be honest, I always avoided country because I thought it was cheesy, but the older I get the more I am starting to appreciate it. I have never listened to Keith Urban before. Dude just blew my mind. Thanks for exposing me to new music Michael!
Keith is such a killer guitar player, soooo good! Would love to see you break down what he and John Mayer does when trading solos during their performance of Sweet Thing on CMT Crossroads!
He doesn't get enough credit from too many people because he's a pretty boy! As a bass player I always saw the same thing with John Taylor. This guy absolutely kicks ass. And his band is total top notch, I especially love this drummer, so kick ass for a country band.
I remember the first time I heard the album version of this song. When it got to the guitar solo at the end, the way it comes in all slow and bendy, I remember thinking "this is what it sounds like when an instrument cries." That whole end section is like grief welling up inside you, and you try to push it back down but it can't be denied and finally bursts out of your chest. The way Keith expresses those emotions through his guitar is something I didn't think was possible for non-classical musicians. I still have trouble listening to that song sometimes because of what it makes me feel.
I know nothing about guitars or playing them, but I love your videos. You’re always so positive and happy listening to someone’s music, and that’s so pleasant to watch. Thank you for sharing!!
I used to do a cover of this almost 10 years ago. Such a great tune. Keith is so talented. He is the full package...great singing, songwriting, production, lyrics, and yes...an awesome guitarist.
He also plays a pretty great bass, piano and he writes his music not with a melody or with lyrics but with a beat on his drum machine. I find him amazing and unique and he has such a smooth vibrato and no conveys emotions better than Keith. You feel every single word!!! I’m glad you chose a live performance.
First time I’ve ever heard this song, it tore me up. So much passion and feeling in that song. This is the version of this song people need to hear when they talk about this song, just....wow. Well done
I saw Keith Urban live in '08 and when he did this song it gave me goose bumps. I got hooked on him in '05 after seeing him in concert on CMT. I went out and bought the DVD of this concert ('Livin' Right Now') a few months later and was blown away by him being such a complete artist. As an artist, I put him in the same classification as Brad Paisley and John Mayer, although Mayer is honestly in a class all his own. If I'm going on a road trip and I can bring music from and 3 artists it's going to be a great drive listening to those three.
You are as passionate as any musician I have ever listened to. I am a 62 y.o. Physician who still plays guitar everyday and I still am active in a cover band. Your passion inspires me every time I watch you. Thank you!
Great video. I’ve seen Keith Urban 12 times and he is awesome live. His solos are so tasteful. Also, you know that they are running a click in there ears. And that amazing tone comes from that Les Paul Jr. again loved your video.
Super glad you covered Keith and this song. This era of Keith’s really pushed me to get into building primarily Juniors. Just massive massive tone. Without this, there’d probably be no Joey Landreth’s Goldtop.
See him live if you can! You won't regret it. The boy can play and sing and work a crowd. He band is always stellar. Last saw him in Atlanta with Larkin Poe! What a show!
I need more Keith Urban reaction videos. My favorite live moment - by far - was at Mohegan Sun a number of years ago with Jamey Johnson singing "In Color". I was there - I SWEAR he looked me in my eyes - and it was freaking magical.
Grat to see someone appreciate Keith. He is an absolute monster. There is an old clip of him doing a 3 piece live version of Devil Went Down to Nashville which shows his guitar skills really well
Man, I've watched a decent number of your breakdowns and, to be frank, it's often far over my head. I don't play guitar and don't grasp all the music theory and progression talk. That being said, I was pumped to see you doing this song. I've always loved Keith Urban and this song in particular. That lead solo is much more than just an exhibition of guitar mastery. It serves a very important role in the song. It's very much an additional verse. Throughout the first two verses of the song, the song is speaking to the "Stupid Boy" ("You stupid boy, you always had to be right"). After the bridge, the song becomes the perspective of the "Stupid Boy" ("Oh, I'm the same ole, same ole stupid boy") and he realizes that she's gone. In comes the guitar solo and it comes in very mournful and slow - almost expressing grief. As the solo builds and the playing gets faster, the sound begins to express more begging - almost saying "please, please don't go." That's just my take but I think it's a masterful guitar solo that continues the lyric of the song without using words. I've always thought that Vince Gill did this the best (at least in country music) but Keith Urban is right up there.
@@erikhartley2494 I’ll preface this by saying that a lot of what Keith Urban does so well in Stupid Boy is using his guitar to tell part of the story. Vince Gill does this incredibly well in a lot of his ballads. I’d suggest watching Vince Gill’s live version of “Go Rest High on that Mountain” in his tribute to George Jones. He struggles to even sing the lyrics but gets to the solo and it’s clear that he speaks through his guitar and it completes settles his emotions. Amazing to see. As far as Vince Gill solos in non-ballads, watch Oklahoma Borderline. There’s a live version on YT where he also talks about Mark Knopfler (who is an amazing guitarist in his own right) asking him if he wanted to join Dire Straits. A second song of Vince Gill’s to listen to is Liza Jane. Find the live version of him with The Players.
What an incredible talent you have, brother. Amazing! I wish I had the knowledge of music you have.youre ear and talent is amazing! Play your guitar with the performer brother, you're great!
KU is the REAL DEAL. Never ceases to amaze me. Much love to Sarah for helping bring this song into the world and forming it into something so special that our ears and our hearts could appreciate it so dearly ♥ - christopher blake
After seeing Keith Urban in concert it was evident even more so that he is a real player. The fact he and the band are rocking out riffs from other bands that only about 10 of us in the entire crowd knew... little laughs between the band... awesome!
I have this reoccurring dream from when I had aspirations of country stardom where I was on an award show doing a massive guitar off with the best players in the genre. I sleep good
The fact that you are you is fantastic... it’s really cool that you’re willing to lay your personality out there like this... the content is 1/2 of my enjoyment- like what I learn - the other 1/2 is just enjoying your style/presentation. Cheers to you Michael.
I wish Keith Urban’s music was still like this. His older records are fantastic, full of good catchy-pop country songs but great production. He’s had a few good songs in the last decade but overall his last two albums have just been a wreck in my opinion. Ripcord was good, just wish it had a real drummer on it. He’s one of my favourites so I sure hope he leans towards what made him great in the first place.
I'm exactly in the same boat. He's had a handful of good songs since Ripcord but it's not quite the same. He's gone a bit too techno and away from the natural instrument sound which is a shame. Love Pain is easily my favourite album.
I've got to agree. Graffiti U and his latest I think are good but nowhere near the older music. I like his acoustic music the best but the heavier rock guitar is amazing as Keith is a virtuoso guitarist. I'm not,sure what it is I didn't like on Graffiti U but the songs were not as catchy or meaningful as some of the older music. I wish,he'd do an all acoustic record with all the older great songs.
I know this video is a couple of years old but it’s one of the best videos I’ve seen and listen too in YEARS!!! Great job, big music, musician, Keith fan. You’re right the band is awesome and I feel like most people under rate his guitar playing, it’s some of the best I’ve ever seen. Subscribing today to your channel.
These are the guys I miss playing with Keith. Fortunately Flowers is still there as he and KU go way back but I don't much care for the musicians Keith is using the past few years. I wish he'd stop doing duets and get back to this era.
@@whyyeseyec I know what you mean. Don’t wanna put anything negative out there but Nathan is exhausting to just watch. Looks like he’s invading KU’s personal space some times. Didn’t know too much about the drummer, Terrance Clark, until I watched a few RUclips videos. Extremely talented and has a “greater good” philosophy when playing. I am waiting on that getting back to my roots good ole country album to come out.
Holy shit, mind blown that Tom/Sarah wrote Stupid Boy... Been one of my favorite KU songs for forever. 'Til Summer Comes Around with John Mayer (Live) would definitely be another great Keith Urban reaction video.
REALLY enjoyed your breakdown and commentary on this one man! One of my all time favorite songs, and one of the key songs that inspired me to pick up a guitar for the first time nearly 14 years ago 😌🤙🏽
You're killing it, Michael!!! These last few videos have made me, a non-musician, salivate as these are songs I have listened to many, many times. Keep 'em coming!
Michael, thank you for making the video! Was watching Tom Bucovac's channel today and he mentioned that he was doing a prog video with you. Was just catching up on youtube this evening and thought I would watch this video....Wow! great job of breaking the song down, never heard the song before but will definitely listen to it again, and again. Loved the concerts that Keith Urban did with John Mayer a few years back and you are right, Kieth Urban is a real player....tone and feel for days. Glad I watched your video, thank you, and I subscribed to you channel. Be well.
Keith is such a big star, but I remember seeing posters for him around country Victoria when he was starting out back in the 1980s. The common theme was that he played massive numbers of gigs in his formative years.
They don't get any better than Keith Urban. With that said, I'm so glad you talked about his touring band. Those guys are some of the best Nashville has to offer. It's worth the ticket just to hear them do their thing.
I love how songs like this progress. Personal, intimate, then building to a wide stage to punch the key part of the story, then back to a tight intimate setting again to close, and almost make you reflect on what you already heard. I feel like every time I listen to Keith's live performances, I find something new to blow my mind in regard to how he's nailing vocals and being a fantastic guitar player.
*Nobody can finger a guitar quite like KU* The layers of Epicness is Legendary!! *This whole song is foreplay* He plays this filthy doesn't he!! I really enjoyed your breakdown! Thank~You! 💞🌸
After watching this concert over & over again. The "Love Pain & the Whole Crazy Thing" world tour was I think arguably some of Keith's finest performances to date. It was his 1st tour after spending 3 month's in rehab. He was clean & the emotion that he shared was outstanding, even shedding tears through performances of different song's. Also this group of muso's he had we're the best I've ever seen him with.
What always annoyed me about this song was when it was played on the radio it ended before the solo. That’s why they all cheered in between. They thought it was over because of it.
My favorite videos that you do have been the country/folk/bluegrass genres. The simplicity of the progressions but the intentional layering of elements in those genres gives the music an emotional pull that is unparalleled (blues would fit into that group as well). Keep up the good work! I'd love to hear you react to an old Waylon Jennings tune called "I've always been crazy" or maybe one of the Merle Haggard classics (workin' man blues would be killer)
Should see the crossroads song Don’t let me down he did with John Mayer. You’d find it on choicenation page on RUclips. It’s a live performance. Awesome. I’m moved to tears and you’ll know when those moments happen in the song.
These reacts are so great. Keeping with the country genre you should check out "stay a little longer", by Brothers Osbourne...john osbourne is another monster level player in nashville who throws two killer solos down in that song. keep up the great work!!
This one makes me cry. Another one that will rip your heart out is when the Tedeschi Trucks Band does Midnight in Harlem (get the live version). You'll be in tears.
It makes me happy to see you and people like you reacting to these country artists like Keith Urban and Brad Paisley because back when I was in high school middle school and elementary school country was not cool and I got made fun of for listening to these people. Never bothered me really but it's just nice to grow up and get good verification that I was right after all, they are great musicians guitar players and country music is a great genre. I even remember by the time this song came out Country still wasn't mainstream quite yet and it is now but it's not country anymore. Keith Urban Brad Paisley and Kenny Chesney those were my three main men's growing up. The three musketeers if you will
Of course grown up now I like other things besides country. And sure can halen, and all these rock players are great. But country is still where it's at. Where it's always been and where it always will be weather people know it or not! I for one am gonna bring it back. Crump: Make Country Great Again. Look me up, I do originals on RUclips.
Michael he does this slower in the real track which is the foundation for this but it just shows you how great he is that he choose to fucking whale on this live. Its amazing musician ship
Видеоклипы
This is the pinnacle of his backing band. Everyone of them are insane musicians. IN! SANE!
This is honestly one of my favorite guitar solos ever!
Always knew Keith Urban was a solid guitar player, but when I saw him and Mayer play "Don't Let Me Down" at Crossroads I was like dang this guy is incredible
Totally.
@michael palmisano : Totally agree! Please, make a video for "Don't Let Me Down" with John Mayer!!!

Personally loved seeing Mayer and urban play til summer comes around during crossroads. There were some beautiful solos in that
I can’t see a sunburst Les Paul Jr and not think of Keith Urban. He’s one of the best singer/players working.
I took my wife to Keith Urban live in Madison Square Garden back in 2015 and he absolutely RIPPED! Unbelievable show. He made an entire arena feel like an intimate gathering. He's legit.
Saw him in San Antonio in 2016 and it was unbelievable. I was at the very front. The only thing between him and I was his floor monitor.
Keith Urban is a BEAST with a guitar! Holy crap he can SHRED
Probably my all-time favorite song, it’s gorgeous. This is the Keith Urban I love. His concerts never disappoint.
Just throwing this out there, but "slow dancing in a burning room - John Mayor" live in L.A. would be an awesome one to react to too!
Honestly anything from that show. Mayer and both his trio and full band were killer on every song
I totally agree. Slow Dancing is one hell of a song and the lead solos are always killer.
Slow dancing in a first grade English class would be a good one for you to check out.
Ryan K boom John mayor actually played that show at the city hall
Literally anything from that album/film would be amazing; some of the Trio stuff deserves a solid breakdown!
I love the country Keith Urban, i dont like the newer wave country songs he did recently, with snaps and drum machines, but the Country Keith Urban is just GOLDEN!!
Your right,his newer music is Keith Toilet!Golden Keith from the Ranch days to about 2010.
He has a song called Gemini from his 2018 album that's super poppy but has one of his best guitar solos ever on it imo
The days of frat boy country have devolved into snap track pop country. Cash, Jennings, and all the rest are rolling in their graves.
New album 2020 has a great song called Forever. Killer song and solos. Reminds me of Shes Gotta Be
@@smhmusics4510 check out the solo in Steal My Thunder from the same album. It’s pretty killer. The new album includes Forever, which has a killer solo.

Check out the Hellecasters a bit of everything and Albert Lee and Danny Gatton too.
Thanks for bringing Keith's talent to the forefront. The Man is amazing. I have seen him twice in concert. Phenomenal!!!!!!
Keith is such a killer guitar player, soooo good! Would love to see you break down what he and John Mayer does when trading solos during their performance of Sweet Thing on CMT Crossroads!
Michael is the shit. Amazing musician amazing mind... articulates whats going on... this channel is one of the best on youtube.
I love KU, he's flawless but I also enjoyed watching the guitar teacher as he totally gets it
He doesn't get enough credit from too many people because he's a pretty boy! As a bass player I always saw the same thing with John Taylor. This guy absolutely kicks ass. And his band is total top notch, I especially love this drummer, so kick ass for a country band.
Couldn’t click fast enough.
This solo is one of my favorite of all time. It’s so vocal, so musical. Keith really makes that LP Jr sing!
I remember the first time I heard the album version of this song. When it got to the guitar solo at the end, the way it comes in all slow and bendy, I remember thinking "this is what it sounds like when an instrument cries." That whole end section is like grief welling up inside you, and you try to push it back down but it can't be denied and finally bursts out of your chest. The way Keith expresses those emotions through his guitar is something I didn't think was possible for non-classical musicians. I still have trouble listening to that song sometimes because of what it makes me feel.

Love how he played that fast lick while singing 🤯
There is a great Crossroads episode with John Mayer and Keith. Some fantastic guitar playing by both! Definitely worth checking it out

I could ride shotgun and not complain about the music. Maybe throw in some Zac Brown band and /or Chris Stapleton and you’re complete! 😎
His performance of "Shelby County Jail" on Greens Grocery is one of my favorites.
Absolutely incredible.
Wow. I got chills only with the power chords at the ends...thats says it all, so tight.
So tight! Really makes it at the end there.
You are as passionate as any musician I have ever listened to. I am a 62 y.o. Physician who still plays guitar everyday and I still am active in a cover band. Your passion inspires me every time I watch you. Thank you!
Dude Keith urban can make 1 finger note just sound like a heavenly minstrel. What control. Dude is awesome
Great video. I’ve seen Keith Urban 12 times and he is awesome live. His solos are so tasteful. Also, you know that they are running a click in there ears. And that amazing tone comes from that Les Paul Jr. again loved your video.
Wonderful. Their, btw
Keith Urban & John Mayer covering "Don't Let Me Down" is just the two of them communicating to each other with their guitars
I saw that performance live. He’s such an incredible artist and performer. And a guitar god.
Super glad you covered Keith and this song. This era of Keith’s really pushed me to get into building primarily Juniors. Just massive massive tone. Without this, there’d probably be no Joey Landreth’s Goldtop.
Do you have a rough idea of the setup here? I love the guitar sound on this song, and thinking about picking up an electric to learn on.
Thank you for shedding light on this song and performance. Phenomenal!!! Thanks Michael 👍
Never been a huge fan of Keith urban, but seeing him live the man puts on one hell of a show! I'll never forget. Blown away

Beautiful piece - like wow !!
Nicely done. Love the content. Tuesday's ARE GREAT! Thank you. I can't play a lick of guitar. I play trombone. I Love this stuff.
He makes it look so effortless too!!! Keith is an awesome player!
I would love a dissection of Richard Thompson's "1952 Vincent Black Lightning" A sad English ballad with incredible finger picking
Sean Rowe kills that one as well. And Reckless Kelly at Cains.

After watching this concert over & over again.
The "Love Pain & the Whole Crazy Thing" world tour was I think arguably some of Keith's finest performances to date.
It was his 1st tour after spending 3 month's in rehab. He was clean & the emotion that he shared was outstanding, even shedding tears through performances of different song's. Also this group of muso's he had we're the best I've ever seen him with.
I’m months late on this one Michael…..love the breakdown…you amaze me how quickly you can get at and DO what he is doing….
Just saw Keith in Savannah, GA and he closed the show with this song. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Keith is an amazing teacher as well
Great video. Urban is awesome with his feel.
Saw him live such amazing experience!
What always annoyed me about this song was when it was played on the radio it ended before the solo. That’s why they all cheered in between. They thought it was over because of it.
My favorite videos that you do have been the country/folk/bluegrass genres. The simplicity of the progressions but the intentional layering of elements in those genres gives the music an emotional pull that is unparalleled (blues would fit into that group as well). Keep up the good work! I'd love to hear you react to an old Waylon Jennings tune called "I've always been crazy" or maybe one of the Merle Haggard classics (workin' man blues would be killer)
Dude... Check out his live version of Raining on Sunday
Should see the crossroads song Don’t let me down he did with John Mayer. You’d find it on choicenation page on RUclips. It’s a live performance. Awesome. I’m moved to tears and you’ll know when those moments happen in the song.
These were his best days with Chris Q as drummer and MD with Chris Rod on guitar!
I listened to my dad struggle with this song from my room growing up for months so watching this knowing what was coming up was fantastic.
These reacts are so great. Keeping with the country genre you should check out "stay a little longer", by Brothers Osbourne...john osbourne is another monster level player in nashville who throws two killer solos down in that song. keep up the great work!!
This one makes me cry. Another one that will rip your heart out is when the Tedeschi Trucks Band does Midnight in Harlem (get the live version). You'll be in tears.
One of my favourite KU songs of all time. Ty
Thank you!
I have no idea what your saying as far as the notes but Man i love this ....Great song
Michael - "I'm on a time crunch" also Michael - "let me do a 25 minute video"
Brilliant, thank you 👍🤗
It makes me happy to see you and people like you reacting to these country artists like Keith Urban and Brad Paisley because back when I was in high school middle school and elementary school country was not cool and I got made fun of for listening to these people. Never bothered me really but it's just nice to grow up and get good verification that I was right after all, they are great musicians guitar players and country music is a great genre. I even remember by the time this song came out Country still wasn't mainstream quite yet and it is now but it's not country anymore. Keith Urban Brad Paisley and Kenny Chesney those were my three main men's growing up. The three musketeers if you will
Of course grown up now I like other things besides country. And sure can halen, and all these rock players are great. But country is still where it's at. Where it's always been and where it always will be weather people know it or not! I for one am gonna bring it back.
Crump: Make Country Great Again. Look me up, I do originals on RUclips.
Decoration day live in Alabama Jason Isbell
Goddamn Lonely Love off that album is gold too.
Michael he does this slower in the real track which is the foundation for this but it just shows you how great he is that he choose to fucking whale on this live. Its amazing musician ship
Marc Broussard, then Keith urban... only the best ! keep on rockin'
