He probably didn't. A bunch of backoffice people made it happen. There was a Vai video on sale, and this is the result. Like, he is super-imposed onto the video.
Steve Vai:“There’s a new breed of brilliant evolutionary musicians breaking onto the scene, and this track is the evidence,” offered Vai. “It takes pop to another dimension of groove, musicality and overall bad-assery. It’s amazeballs.”
@@knaperstekt7953 No, you're wrong about that. Vai soloed to the song. It just so happen that the song was written two years ago. That's why Vai's got long hair and can use his right hand without problems (he's got an injury nowadays). He was superimposed because of obvious reasons (related to corona, travelling, not nessecary to travel in order to appear in the video).
I love how Steve Vai is credited as "Stunt Guitar" in the end, nice little inside-joke. For those who don´t know: Vai started his career in Frank Zappa´s live band and Frank used to introduce him live as "my little Italian stunt guitarist".
Yeah, you are completly right. One of the best bass performances I ever saw. You can't do a better Job on bass. I hohe Tobias gets the recognition he deserved.
Thank you Suzanne!!!!!.... Someone other than me noticed that the star of the show isn't always Jonah. I thought Henrik was the ad-infinitum bottom line when it comes to Dirty Loops - enter Tobias Grenholm. Besides the crazy sense of feel he has, the sound he gets from that freaking bass makes my head shake in disbelief. (I've played bass for half my life, and still don't get THAT crisp sound). That stupid little lick at 1:13 is just sick.
I agree.. and for people who like this solo they would also probably like Vai’s solo in Devin Townsend Band - Triumph. I like this one best, but Triumph is my second favorite solo by Vai.
Imagine being Jesper the guitarist with a Marshall and Flying V, playing ghost notes that get burried under the synth. And then when it's finally time for a guitar solo, they fly in Steve.
I personally like the fairly noticeable percussive effect Jesper's subtle playing has, and how it goes in tandem with the hi-hat sixteenths -- good contribution to synergy!
@@JazzyHamster_ar Yeah your right, having the percussive held back playing actually adds to the groove and you would miss if it was not there and if you had anymore guitar on this it would just detract and gum up the groove. Nice be of service to the song from the guitarist by adding just what is needed and no more and still looking cool while doing it.
Jonah deserves MJ levels of fame. I haven't heard another vocalist who absolutely shreds as hard as he does, on vocals, keys, and I think I saw he plays drums too? Absolute monster composer and player.
What's so awesome about Steve Vai are his endless possibilities to phrase a melodic line. Each note is approached in a distinct and different way, like it is with Jeff Beck or Marcus Miller.
The guy is stellar.. really... Got so used to seeing hyper shredded or math rock guitar stunts that I had forgotten what a soulful, yet technical, creative and beautiful solo sounded like.
Jonah : “It’s a very dance-friendly song with lots of fun musical elements with Steve Vai ending the song with a crazy solo,” he added. “I thought to myself, this song needs the most epic, crazy, guitar-hero solo possible and there is only one person who could’ve delivered that: Steve Vai.” Yeah..fit perfectly!
Yes there are words; ridiculous, unearthly, depressingly masterful, impossibly tasteful, fully on fire, chillingly cool... Oh no wait... Those words actually don't even start describing this bass playing... Hmmm... I concede; you're right!
Imagine being the guitarist Jesper. Sees "guitar solo" on the chart. Gets excited. They tell him they have a stunt guitar. Dejected, he asks who, finds out its Steve Vai..."you made the right choice" haha Out of this world solo. He is ridiculous innovative and original.
Vai's solo is still from another planet, he's always been my favorite guitarist since I was a kid, even way beforehand I've started studying music, it's incredible how he can merge even with such great musicians a bit away from "his genre". Zappa would be very proud of his once protegee, once more.
Binge watching Dirty Loops brought me here. Vai's solo caters so precisely to this track's groove; I'm still impressed by his abilities to adapt to any and every style out there he gigs for. It's probably a trait that Zappa was keen to. Jonah, your voice is absurdly delightful and moving and your arrangements are inspiring. I hear the Greats in your voice, from Little Richard to Stevie Wonder, to Michael Jackson, to Prince, and even Tevin Campbell.
i come back here to listen and every time im even more amazed at the perfection in composition and arrangements. This song deserves 100 times more likes and views. Amazing Job Jonah and team Edit: Of course steve Vai a genius as always. Respect
After 40+ years of career, Steve Vai composes a solo that blows away most of the virtuosos out there. Still with his voice, his sounds, and his way to experiment. Always find your inner voice and develop it. Follow Vai's path, but do not follow him
I remember reading he still had a lot of things left to say musically (or something to that effect) then I heard, 'And we are one' then this now reaffirms that quote. I stay alone and am going through continual stages of growth with the instrument. I realised not to listen to too much of his playing as I started to ape him decades ago. I find him so inspirational that he can still change and stay fresh but still be him. Thanks for your comment...I don't feel so alone!
man, vai is always evolving and never ceases to surprise his colleagues and the general public, it has always been his line, impress, always fresh ... he was with zappa - which means he can play anything, anything believe me
@@billyleehualan1816 you're right! It was 3 AM and I was a bit tired, but I had to give it a listen as soon as I knew of this seemingly unlikely collaboration ahahah follow him but don't copy him
Man some of you in the comments just need to just listen to the music and enjoy. All this comparing. Jesus....... Jonah is being Jonah. I thoroughly enjoyed this for what it is.
This fantastic solo by Steve Vai full of creativity, supreme technique and good taste takes me back to the song "Beat it" by Michael Jackson where Eddie Van Halen did a fantastic and now mythical solo. It is no coincidence that the producer of both albums is the genius Quincy Jones ...
Holy fuck… after following Steve Vai for the best part of 30 years he never ceases to surprise… what a fucking beast and legend… his solo just put all these new RUclips guitar players on notice.
One of the best songs in a very long time. Distincly groovy, pinnacle musicianship, ridiculous vocals, top class mixing, but home run of the year is Tobias Grenholm’s master Yoda bass playing! Tobias if you’re reading this, your craftsmanship on the fat ax is out of this world good! You’ve got your own style, but in my opinion you are funky like Mark King and Stuart Zender, groovy and tender like Victor Wooten, and filthy badass like Buddy Hankerson and Mark Adams. Keep those fingers warm bro!
Well fuck... if it IS the most amazing pop song I've ever heard!? Holy shit what a huge amount of good taste here, I need to listen to this tune again and again all day. The 80s were never dead people, only hiding in Nilsson's subconscious!
The "Unsung Hero" in this video is Tobias Grenholm on 5-string bass guitar (and those who mixed his sound). Such a sassy, sexy, saucy, syncopated, sophisticated, striking, stunning, spectacular bass line! BRAVO!
The way Steve Vai plays with so much emotion makes me honestly cry,not too many musicians can do that to me,usually (generally speaking) it's because of maybe a sad melody,song.But this happens to me when the phrasing,conviction,etc...are just so emotional, even in a happy song.Here is a perfect example.
Unbelievable. I’m basically blown away by anything Dirty Loops, and Jonah, their harmonies cuts into my soul. BUT that Vai solo is out of this world, how can a guy his age and decades of playing create something so innovative, tasteful, smart and simply brilliant? A raw model and an inspiration, especially for us of age. In all aspects.
I am so glad I found this, this singer is great, and S. Vai was an excellent addition. Wow, a great mix a musical treat. Thank guys, a great, wonderful musical trip.
Wow this is so awesome, its like high level fusion with all those arrangements and chords, but super funky with a singer so normal people can like it, and then one of the best guitarists in the work floats in and does a beautiful jazz/rock solo. Next level!
How bad ass is this track, what an honor it must have been to work together with all of these amazing musicians! I'm so lucky that I got introduced to Dirty Loops by someone, because since then I just can't get enough... I'm literally obsessed! Love you man, cheers from The Netherlands.
I think my husband and kids are planning an intervention for me lol…I listen to Jonah’s work as well as Dirty Loops, old and new, all day long…in my home office, in my car, in the living room, when I’m cooking, etc. Most amazing rabbit hole I’ve ever fallen in!
I was wondering how Steve was going to fit into this kind of music but he knocked it out of the park. Still innovating after 40+ years on the scene. Love it. Great work Jonah and everyone else who made it happen.
The pinnacle of mainstream pop music manifests itself as a luminous vertex where the sublime and the accessible converge. A bassline that is more than a sequence of notes: it is a delicate labyrinth of rhythm and melody, beautiful in its form, inexhaustible in its dynamism. Within it, the groove reaches an exquisite splendor, and each "feel" it emanates is a moment of fulfillment. Here, the slapping -ferocious in its execution, almost savage- rises as a declaration of virtuosity. Jonah’s voice, powerful and admirable, stands as an archetypal echo, so perfect and firm it seems carved in sonic marble. And what can be said of Steve Vai? To me, he is a demigod of the guitar, a craftsman whose music I have explored to the point of exhaustion, like one who loses themselves with delight in an infinite book. I love his style, his phrasing, that unmistakable sound that carries in each note the weight of the eternal. Listening to his solos is not merely a pleasure; it is a return. It is a thread that takes me back to those early days, when I was just beginning to discover music, and his solos were dreams woven in the air.
Clapping reminds me of first circle by PMG, and when you know, that's a sure Dirty Loops influence, you recognize it even more. This is a sublime mixture of all the best from MJ to PMG
Rajsuryan More than an influence. He's copying a lot of Michael's moves and gestures, not to mention, Jonah's voice sounds a lot like Michael's. I almost expect him to exclaim "Shamon! Hee-heeeeee!"
Greetings from Dubai , no one has come this close to sounding like Michael Jackson , yet you maintained your original sound - that’s a feat bro … and then you got steve vai to play a solo - if this doesn’t win a Grammy then we know that the music industry is flawed🙂
You were able to get that amazing enchanting Steve Vai guitar sound at the end of his solo. That’s only been on a few of his tracks and it’s super signature and awesome! Excellent work Jonah!
Honestly I thought I had been over Vai for years then he does this solo! Man not expected at all from him at this point and shows how musically he’s a genius can deliver something completely unexpected.
I imagine Quincy must really admire this dude's talent to have him lean into the MJ influence this much. Absolutely adore the song! Vocals are infectious!! The little spicy modulations here and there are seriously cool too!
Vai’s solo is excellent , has it all , melodic, heavy , trippy , does blow away the competition , have not heard any other virtuoso create such composition within a pop song to boot ! Most players are great at the gymnastics , but lack melody , quite impressed with Vai !
Tobias Grenholm is no joke! He destroyed this track and hats off to Kefa Figaro and Jesper the Creator (drummer and guitarist) for just grooving and staying out of Tobias' way!
I saw Jordan Rudess yesterday, and now Steve Vai. OMG, Jonah, how in the world you got such an amazing idea? Very nice track and Vai's solo makes it even cooler! ❤️❤️❤️
I watched this music video until the end while expecting what’s gonna happen until Mr Vai appears. And, finally, The Virtuoso blows my mind! He delivered very precious musical taste through his guitar. The music itself is also very good to me…

I've never heard of Jonah Nilson before, but now that I did I realize why I couldn't stand Michael Jackson. It's the tone of voice 😖
@@knaperstekt7953 No, you're wrong about that. Vai soloed to the song. It just so happen that the song was written two years ago.

Love how Quincy Jones doesn't need a subtitle in the end credits. He's just THE Quincy Jones.

Dude I agree with you so much!!! This solo hits right in the soul!!

Please tell me there's a full album coming out
Listen to Dirty Loops albums then. Jonah lead singer and it very similar music to this imo.
Jonah will release a new solo album the 5th of Aug
I don’t mean to detract from Jonah’s performance at all but Tobias’ bass playing totally steals the show here. What an amazing track.
Simply incredible, Jonah has a chance to truly shine in this and show off his endless ability. I’m flawed.
Honestly I thought I had been over Vai for years then he does this solo! Man not expected at all from him at this point and shows how musically he’s a genius can deliver something completely unexpected.
I imagine Quincy must really admire this dude's talent to have him lean into the MJ influence this much. Absolutely adore the song! Vocals are infectious!! The little spicy modulations here and there are seriously cool too!
Wonderful so much talent together and not colliding in chaos ..... beautifully executed, beautifully produced .....
Omg steve is a absolute god!! I have goosebumps throughout his entire solo.
Same here!! Vai is out of this world!!
Vai’s solo is excellent , has it all , melodic, heavy , trippy , does blow away the competition , have not heard any other virtuoso create such composition within a pop song to boot ! Most players are great at the gymnastics , but lack melody , quite impressed with Vai !
The Professor taking a break from streetball to lay down some sick basslines.
Watch out Professor, Steve Vai's been doing the old "dominant hand in a sling" training..
Tobias Grenholm is no joke! He destroyed this track and hats off to Kefa Figaro and Jesper the Creator (drummer and guitarist) for just grooving and staying out of Tobias' way!
I saw Jordan Rudess yesterday, and now Steve Vai. OMG, Jonah, how in the world you got such an amazing idea? Very nice track and Vai's solo makes it even cooler! ❤️❤️❤️
Jesus man… I’m not listening to anything but this song for a while. Soooo gooood!
Just came across this!! Why hasn't this got 1 MILL likes yet??? :) This IS music.
I support you from Japan!!
You're my dream
This is so INSANELY good. Love it when RUclips's recommendations absolutely nails it.
Awesome... Let's give some props to the awesome band!! Bass player is killing it 🎸🎸🎸
Tobias is a gem. It’s about time he get some recognition
@@jesperthecreator6512 True! And you're absolutely awesome as well!! 💪 Hope to hear more from this band
I’m glad you like it, thank you!
@@tgr0411 💪💪 You're welcome! Rock on
And just when you think Dr. Vai has explored all posibilities on the guitar he does something else!!!!! The Master of Masters
Maaaan. Steve Vai and the bassist. 🔥🔥🔥
Outstanding. Every single one of them. Really awesome they put Steve in there too. Such a fun song.
2:10 this gives me Ultimate Dirty Loops Vibes🔥 awesome collab
I watched this music video until the end while expecting what’s gonna happen until Mr Vai appears. And, finally, The Virtuoso blows my mind! He delivered very precious musical taste through his guitar. The music itself is also very good to me…
This singer knows how to find great bass players! Any tips? :)
Not bad at all. That bassist is killing it!
