I don't understand why people are so negative about Orianthi. One thing I've seen in the comment section is that she has done 'nothing new'. Oh, I'm sorry, but I didn't know bands like One Direction, and single artists like Justin Bieber, Katy Perry, et al. did completely original, engaging hits! What a suprisee! (sarcasm). Sure, maybe nothing is new, but it is still more unique than the thousand other solo artists out there today. Orianthi is a talented person trying to make her way through a business that has bled dry it's originality. But I will say one thing to wrap me up. This song engaged me more than any Katy Perry, Adele, Nickelback, Bieber, 1D, or any song of that type, and that's what makes me like this vid.
Like M.Schenker once said:''Once you get success as a musician,people will talk shit about you.''.Also the fact that she's a girl in a male dominated genre,let's face it,there are many guys,who feel their wiener will shrink,when they watch a female rock guitarist/bassist/drummer etc. and than start the usual sexist bullshit.You know:''She's only famous because she's a hot chick,blah blah....'' Funny thing is,Orianthi was playing with her dad at local clubs as a teen 4 nights a week.She openend up for Vai at 15 years,an age were most of us dudes,were either playing videogames or with ourselfs.And when she was 19,she wrote,recorded,produced & mixed her debut-album ''Violet Journey'' ,in a small home-studio,that her dad build,on her own.She didn't had the money for session musicians or a producer/sound engineer.Later,when A.Cooper hired her,she had to learn a setlist of 25 songs in 5 days.I would like to see any of these bigmouths,who trashtalk on her or any other pro-musician,do something like this.
***** Exactly dude,nothing is more attractive,than a woman with some actual musical talent,who can play an instrument,no matter if it's guitar,bass,drums or something else.
Ok, One Direction and Justin Beiber? So what you're saying to me is that Orianthi's direct competition is not guys like Satriani or Vai, she's not on that level, no, it's people like Justin Beiber. That is a bigger insult than "not making anything new". Orianthi is better than One Direction and all that radio garbage, that's exactly why we expect more from her than we would from Beiber
FelpHero You've taken my comment in the wrong context mate. Why I mention artists like them is because both they and Orianthi are current artists. People like Joe Satriani started up in the 70's and 80's and absolutely shredded their guitars, but most of the modern day music tends to be repetitive and bland. Orianthi is a modern day musician, but creates interesting and engaging music, trying different styles, etc. She is a far cry, professionally or skill-wise, in front of JB or OD. Skill-wise and professionally, she is up with the greats in her ability, but is under-appreciated by the industry. Hell, I didn't even know who the hell she was until I played her song in GH: Warriors of Rock and thought, hey, this song sounds awesome, lets find it on RUclips.
Kallitrix The problem with her isn't her lack of talent but her lack of a good management/label,who knows how to promote her and her stupid career decisions.Her first label,Geffen,wanted to market her as a teen-pop act,like Avril Lavigne.Her current label,Robo Records,did absolutely nothing to promote her excellent ''Heaven in this Hell '' cd from 2013.They put out 2 of the weakest songs as singles,with 2 ubercheap lyric videos.She couldn't do much promo work,because she was touring with A.Cooper,so nobody heard of this amazing album. If that wasn't bad enough,Orianthi herself,does everything she can,in order to destroy her credibillty & career.This year,she had some time off,from A.Cooper,instead of going on a solo-tour what does she do?She hooked up with R.Sambora and has basically become his latest ''pet''.She also left A.Cooper's band,were she was the leadguitarist,gained many new fans/exposure/credibillity and was a fan-favorite.Not to mention the Coop & her bandmates were very supportive to her(G.Sobel played drums on her album & Alice appeared as a special guest on her solo-gigs.) Since she got involved with this sleazy,drunk has-been,she's wasting her talent as backup musician in his second-rate Bon Jovi coverband.Most of the time,the guy is hammered on stage,butchering their old hits from the 80's,while she plays some chords and occasionally ''Sugardaddy'' let's her play some leads.The rest of the time,she let's him parade her around in the press & celebrity events,like some sort of trophy & she has appeared in tabloids as "the 25 years younger girlfriend of the middle-aged rockstar from the 80's''. If she doesn't get her pretty head straight,her career will be over before we even saw her full potential as a musician.Soon her ''Sugardaddy'' will replace her with a new plaything and she will be left with a career/reputation damaged beyond repair.And for the record,I'm an avid ''Ori-fanboy''. P.S.Sorry for the lenghty rant.
I love Orianthi! Her playing,looks, attitude,she is the whole package! As I aproach 71,.i have seen and heard most things, but Orianthi has that something special! A virtuoso,..hard working, beautiful lady! I was/am a hippy,lived through the 70,s,.but nothing like this talented woman existed..! Keep on rocking! Love and peace! Old male fan..!xx
Ditto at age 55. But it was the 80s for me. Watched the debut of MTV the very first video- Video Killed The Radio Star. I was 13. If Orianthi existed back then I don't think the world could have handled it lol. She is absolutely amazing in every aspect. I'd lay in a mud puddle for her to walk over.
Then at 71 ....maybe you ought to be more original and like me at 69 like original styles ,unique as in Frank Zappa ..a true original style....I love Orianthi but not so enamoured of the shredding stuff...like Bucket head ....
That was a beautifully crafted duet and the performance was so fluid and effortless. Fantastic. (I loved the camera work and editing as well). Great stuff.
I didn't know either of these shred masters could be better, but they really did shred two whole guitars into what sounds like one at times, and then these great harmonies are on top. I feel like these are the technical masters of this kind of playing. I feel lucky to hear it. Thanks!
This song is fun c: Love how the guitar tones compliment eachother with Orianthi's smooth, rounded PRS-tone, and Steve's more trebly, raw tone. The soloes are so creative and the song is just short enough to not be draining for non guitarplayers. Cool!
Steve Vai não é desse mundo, eu tive a oportunidade de vê-lo ao vivo ... show sensacional, ele é impecável, animado e brinca de tocar guitarra durante todo o show... Parece que não importa o nível de dificuldade da música ele faz parecer fácil de tanto conforto que ele passa, ele se diverte em todas as músicas, como se tivesse tocando num churrasco entre amigos, que é o seu público, e sem errar uma nota.
She's not anywhere near Vai's level and would tell you that. Jackson liked having a female guitarist hence the pick and she could play the parts. This isn't meant to be sexist at all, there are tons of really good female players technically better than her.
The fact that the guitars are not plugged in means that they filmed this music video after having recorded the song... Which means that they know that 4:06 minutes solo all by heart.. which is extremely impressive, usually when you play solos this long you improvise but these guys have actually written and remembered the whole thing... Impressive
+Filippo Bianco - It looks lie the the back drop was screened in white, which means they they might have actually played and edited out the power cords for a clean effect.
+Horder Phelps towards the beginning Vai make a move like he is stomping on / off a pedal. so that seems very likely. that and at 1:49 or so you can see the cables, as they forgot to edit them out of that cut.
Professional musicians don't improvise in studio. They wrote all those parts and practiced them to play them exactly the same way. Professionals only improvise in live shows.
i went frame by frame at 1:49 and although it looks like there's the tip of a cable coming out of the guitar, that's not the way cables are angled on steve's guitars.
Steve Vai is the best rock guitarist in the world . He can do any difficult technique the young players use BUT they ... Cannot touch his panache, feel, and interesting note selection. He has his own style. There is no other player that sounds like him.
+Daniel Fernández de Lara I don't even understand why Beats want one of their products in a rock music video? Aren't these headphones directed more towards the Rap/Hip-hop audience?
I met Jennifer batton back in 2011 she played a show for my school and i ended up being her assistant for the day because i was the only theater tech kid to volunteer she was really nice and didnt keep secrets if asked questions after seeing and talking to her in person for those that shit talk her shes alot more skilled than you might think of from just watching videos shes every bit of worthy standing next to the the king of virtuoso steve vai him self
Honestly I think orianthi is one of the best female guitarists I discovered who are into my relative kind of music. Sadly there's not many female shredders out there compared to dudes. She proves you CAN shred no matter what gender you are. She awesome.

OH yeah, until 2:49 we have two fine guitarists who are at parity with each other, then Vai does his Road Runner "explosion of prowess" and goes into light speed, leaving Orianthi in the Wylie Coyote dust.

I'm really sad that I'm about 20 years older than her. But my son could use a girlfriend! She's hot all the way through this. I'm also kind of scared that when looking at Steve at 1:18 - 1:25, I thought "If I wake up gay tomorrow, I'm calling Vai."
Lol check out a movie by mel brooks called "the history of the world part1" scene: cavemen doing cave art on cave walls Captions: first art is born. scene: cavemans feet on stone with art, yellow stream flowing over it Cations: first art critic is created.
Critics buy records, cds, tapes. They are responsible for making artists rich because they give them their cash. Critics have a right to say as they like. Do not take offense at it. They are appreciators of music.

shows hes really gettin into the music , part of what makes him so dang good
I'm sure the ladies like his moves!

Так круто сыграть со Стивом Ваем! Моё почтение! Впервые услышал этого исполнителя и впечатлён мастерством владения гитарой.
steve vai fucking cracks me up his facial expressions and his dancing lol and that arm around the leg thing lmao
when you're that skilled you're allowed act silly haha
yeah totally agree, i think vai is misunderstood by alot of people, he is a piss taker
hes also probs off his face most of the time
same lmao
Via looks like a big girl...
I can't seem to get enough of hearing her play and watching her. Just incredible as always .

tears in my eyes. heard that song years ago but have never seen them both performing.
One HELL OF A SHOW!!!1!!11
Thanks Orianthi & Steve
Ori brought the balance, than Vi put the dynamics. Pure perfection.
That intro was probably the best sound ever produced by beats headphones
Have always dug her licks, Steve shreds it up too! Thanks to both of them for being who they are...!!
Master class. Steve is Steve, and Orianthi is a new and very young talent. And she is gorgeous.
Clap your hands to the Lady.

Vai specifically requested that a fan be blowing air into his hair.
Saw him live, still had the fan next to his amp.
Does he take these fans with him everywhere?

yet vai is have a ton of fun playing air guitar (unplugged).
There are such things as wireless guitars ya know.
If you use a wireles guitar you have to plug in a device that sends the signal. They have nothing plugged in.
yeah and you can also see the wireless anyways.
you are aware this is just a music video. They dont need to be plugged in.
One word: tasty! This is exactly what you get when 2 fantastic guitar players get together for a brilliant song!

OH yeah, until 2:49 we have two fine guitarists who are at parity with each other, then Vai does his Road Runner "explosion of prowess" and goes into light speed, leaving Orianthi in the Wylie Coyote dust.
hahaha wtf
Ok Ill say it...shes fricking beautiful and she plays like no tomorrow...beauty and awesomeness...
You can definitely hear the influence Joe Satriani has had on Steve Vai that's for sure
That's because Satriani taught Vai. But Steve has his own style. More jazz influence comes through.
Stephen Jenkins Yea i knew he was his teacher :) and your right i hadn't really noticed how much more jazz he has
Man, I need a cigarette, and I don't even smoke.
Meu sonho da prs começou aí...e depois de 12 anos finalmente adquiri uma custom 24 Edith 30aniversary,nunca desista dos seus sonhos, continue perseguindo eles...que um dia irás alcançar!!
Thank you for your love and support, I am blown away by your love. Fans like you are the reason I keep moving, hope you've had fun over the years?
I heard this in a sonic game...
Nah. This is original.
+Alan Lightner Who compose the music? Shes FANTASTIC, Steve is a GOD.
Jun Senoue is heavily influenced by Steve Vai
Metal Marauder So Jun Senoue is the one who does Sonic soundtracks?
Jacob Mortensen yes.
Is this a guitar duel or a guitar duet? Sometimes I don't really know :)
Can you imagine if they had children.....OMG.......mini shredders !!!
He's aready got kids ;)
They both do a great job here. You can definitely see how good of a showman Vai is. That comes with years of experience.
I kinda have a girl crush on Orianthi :3
right? lol should we do confessions of a fan girl? I'm straight and love her. total fan girlin.
We all do. Heheh no joke
Heard about this on planet rock so had to listen.excellent stuff.
sounds like an opening intro for a Dragon ball z game.
RichieBullock I think so o.o
Se nota que Steve Vai compuso toda la canción, así no suena Orianthi.
Que el título dijera "Steve Vai - Highly Strung ft. Orianthi" jajajaj
Orianthi es fanática de Steve vai , no me sorprendería que algunas partes de la canción sean compuestas por ella también...
Muy buena acotaciòn.
Arturo Velasco English please
2019 someone?
That bit at 0.46 when Orianthi looks at the camera is mind blowingly beautiful,
I'm really sad that I'm about 20 years older than her. But my son could use a girlfriend! She's hot all the way through this.
I'm also kind of scared that when looking at Steve at 1:18 - 1:25, I thought "If I wake up gay tomorrow, I'm calling Vai."
She can rip with the best! Excellent video with Stevie Vai!!!❤❤❤❤
1 The chick sees me
2 I do this (1:39)
3 Today we have 3 children
dat leg swipe tho
Best leg swipe 11/10 would swipe again.

leg swiping done right.
Sounds like a fyck up
Niether Orianthi or Steve Vai wrote this. Steve Vai's hair did.
ahh! but his hair sure is on point. maybe i can get guitar lessons from his hair!!!
- Steve is beeest guitaar in thisfuckin world :3 '
If you think you can tell which one is better then you're nuts. They are equals right here and both are just amazing.
1:45 and 4:00 are the sexiest thing ive seen all year
Critics can always do so much better....
Than Vai? No chance...
Lol check out a movie by mel brooks called "the history of the world part1" scene: cavemen doing cave art on cave walls Captions: first art is born. scene: cavemans feet on stone with art, yellow stream flowing over it Cations: first art critic is created.
Ryan Monty he was being sarcastic
Critics buy records, cds, tapes. They are responsible for making artists rich because they give them their cash. Critics have a right to say as they like. Do not take offense at it. They are appreciators of music.
Arm Chair experts who will never play as good as any of these two ever lol.
