Also he’s just saying that the sound is fucking popular on tiktok, no shit it’s not a tiktok song. Im so fed up by seeing EVERYONE attack this guy in his own comment sections
@@Baldchoppa ngl bro i genuinely forgot about this video and my reply. You're correct, but I don't think what I or the people I replied to said was insulting enough to warrant this response. The way I see it, he meant this lightheartedly to relate to his audience, and said audience is taking jabs at that. We aren't attacking him, but we're attacking the very notion that someone would recognize this as the "spinning rat song."
What is harder about free bird, is that this solo is basically at least 2 or more guitars playing at the same time. I still am amazed that they remember this solo almost note to note somehow
im pretty sure the original recording Allen Collins uses the same recording and just layered them for that sound. Thats why the live performances when he plays freebird something sounds like it is missing.
@@armando6169 Its easy to learn each individual riff in the solo. The solo is. basically a bunch of blues riffs all tied together. That being said, being able to seamlessly transition between all of the licks for 5 min straight is the hard part.
Learn it lick by lick, and practice the transitions between them. This is how you should learn any long or complex songs, bit by bit until you get it implanted into your brain.
Did that sometime ago. Of course if you’re talking about BCS theme, man it sounded sick lol. Basically just made a bit modified version of the riff, but ended it with the original theme. With all the chk-chk’s
Not necessarily hard just need to be precise for it to sound right and it’s long so a bit of room for error but I’ve never thought it was specifically hard though
Little Barrie is brilliant. Barrie Cadogan is currently the most proficient rock guitar player in the world. Go listen to their “King of the Waves” album. It’s incredible.
The better call Saul theme is legitimately so fucking good. Like it has no right being as legitimately fantastic of a track, the guitar tone that comes in during the verse RAHHH
I think it's called baby blue, but I'll have to look it up Edit: never mind, baby blue just another breaking bad song, i think it is just the better call saul theme
I’m starting to notice that he only picks simple or moderately difficult riffs and shares opinions about them being “harder than they seem”. My assumption is that he’s playing into the unpopular opinions algorithm hack and exploiting the naivety of viewers to appear more knowledgeable about guitar than he actually is. If this is the case, it’s very smart and obviously working and I hope it continues to bring him success
I think you nailed it. He's a reasonably decent player, but continually spews some very dubious information, actually hilighting his lack of actual knowledge to anyone who knows otherwise.
Bro do the Better Call Saul theme with Hector Salamanca expression 💀💀
he already did in the video
😐🥴😐🥴😐🥴
😂😂😂
Better call hector
I said that in a comment section once and got over 40k likes and replies idk why 💀
Bro just called free bird a tiktok riff and im a little heated.
you're the guy he was calling out
He's an idiot. Don't let it get to you
The Free Bird solo is vastly overrated.

I tried to learn the Better Call Saul theme a few weeks ago and one my strings literally broke even though i just installed it an hour before 💀💀💀
That’s probably because you didn’t stretch them or didn’t lock them
the string broke bad
What brand and gauge?
perhaps too much tension?
You probably bought cheap strings
He really just called Free Bird a TikTok riff
clearly that was a joke.
Yeah. He was joking lmao
He literally said don’t get mad you little snowflake 💀
imagine gatekeeping mediocre rock music
edit: glad i got all the divorced dads angry
@@inseonmicah … mediocre… damn man… I think gatekeeping justified on this one now buddy.
“Try my best to avoid tik tok sounds” *is a tik tok player*
but he doesnt really do tiktok sounds
Bro played captive fowl ☠️
LMFAO
Hahahah
Dude just butchered free bird
He really hit the ground running on it yeah
the fact that it was probably one of his better takes amazes me as well
Yeah low key
I was looking for this comment 😂
he just said that it was hard to replicate 😭
The hardest tik tok guitar “riffs” is a laid back tv show theme and one of the most famous guitar solos of all time? 💀
it's raw dog like 4 notes on 2 strings and not that fast, it's tutorial shit lmao
@@imoldgregg7009play the entire solo with only 4 notes on 2 strings I dare you
I'm still waiting for the most challenging riff
i'm still waiting for something slightly difficult
Yeah lol neither of these are riffs
bro defiled one of the most known guitar solos of all time… “Lord knows I can’t change”
Bro just called a southern rock classic a tik tok song 😭

Bro's skill to move like a disney npc surpasses his guitar skills
Ik why is it the way he always waves his hands like that in the beginning just annoys me??😂

@@voltic7133 I believe they had three guitarists, I wouldn't be surprised if they all played on it
I mean it's not hard to forget, you can just mess around in the F minor pentatonic shape
@@aadeniscool yes, but guitarist played it live basically note to note.
You see it as a spinning rat. I see it as a spinning Bocchi
i see it as a spinning Erika Furudo
I see it as well… fucking free bird…
Mississippi Queen!!! It's definitely a meme here on RUclips, usually accomplished with the inner mechanics of firing a gun.
I wanna learn the freebird solo so bad but it’s so fricken long
Same, people say its actually easy and it probably is but when i get to lear the final part i would probably have forgotten the begining

Tf is that free bird tone😢
Yes... free bird was just sitting around in obscurity until tiktok found it and made it known....
Is the better call Saul theme just called that or does it have an actual name
i think its just called that
It’s literally just called better call Saul theme 💀
Breh
I think it's called baby blue, but I'll have to look it up
Edit: never mind, baby blue just another breaking bad song, i think it is just the better call saul theme
Little Barrie
Great tremolo! Most mfs who cover this spam the absolute fuck out of the whammy bar like it’s remotely close to what it sounds like
Flawless thank you for delivering ❤
Rare footage of Mikey using humbuckers
As a skynyrd fan. I can swear I wont freak out.
No, please freak out, this troglodite just called freebird a tiktok song
It's time to freak out. The Skynyrd fans shall send an army and regain the respect we've lost 🫡
''The soundtrack to the spinning rat theme, LESSER KNOWN AS-'' that was when i lost it@@loganstrickler
@@anthonydusome5447 ong, couldn't handle it after that
pls don't call these songs tiktok riffs.
bruh me and my friend were freaking out over the free bird solo years ago before it even became a meme
Better call Saul is a great riff as well as a beautiful example of a newer song perfectly replicating the vintage feel
I can guarantee free bird is more commonly known as free bird than the spinning rat meme
Idk I figured out a pretty simple way to play Better Call Saul, probably not how it's actually played, but sounds almost the same.
You can’t start playing the free bird solo and not Finish it, I started getting excited
A more recognizable example of something sampling free birds riff would be the bill nye intro
Is anyone going to talk about the guitar neck he was waving around💀 like how do you just have the neck?
The neck is usually just bolted on so it can be removed.
Neon-John Mayer
Free bird literally has every single possible blues lick you can think of in a solo lol
It’s not the riff that gets me with Free Bird…it’s the speed at which Allen Collins plays a lot of the motifs in the solo.
Not to flex but a lot of my riffs on TikTok got some bite to em.
I checked out your channel and and damn bro keep that shit up ❤️🙏🤘
Don’t ever make the facial expression again
Thats called a passion, somethihg only true guitarists understand
its guitar face, its not easy to get rid of.

Free bird is definitely one of my top 5 favorite songs I've been trying to lean the lead guitar part forever
Lesser known as Freebird................ tf?
bro can barely play freebird 💀
How can this man be able to play CHILL AF SONGS even MORE CHILL WTF i love it and hate it
Little Berrie is one of my favorite bands of all time. They have some amazing stuff
bro literally plays tik tok trending music
if any of those leave your fingers sore then you’re not a guitar player
mkay bro
Real
he is a guitar player
just not a very good one
The free bird revival was amazing. I've always loved the song and now gen z and gen alpha do too 🔥🔥

the last thing i would ever think when picking up my guitar, “what can i play from tik tok”
Sick edits dawg
Unique fingering pattern 🫴🥵
Trying to learn free bird as a 1 month beginner and this dude comes along and says it’s the hardest tiktok riff 😅
“This is one of the more intricate riffs” he says about a solo that is just a repeating bend.
did bro really say free bird was discovered by tiktok? c'mon
The most challenging part of this video is trying to take that guy serious while talking he’s into a guitar.
Mississippi queen is pretty good too imo
Bro played caged birb
this is the first video i’ve seen by mikey and ngl the disembodied guitar neck jump scared me
Free birds guitar solo is half a century old. Wild.
Thanks to Allen Collins for that amazing solo may he rest in peace
Did bro just called the theme song of the best tv show , a "tik tok riff " ?
Free Bird. A crazy exercise in string bending.
i recently learned that rapp snitch knishes is deceivingly hard
Even with humbuckers that strat still sounds so thin
These two are legendary!
The Saul Goodman theme was amazing!
The intro of the Better Call Saul Theme had some Brian Jonestown Massacre vibes at first.
Theres actually four riffs going on at the same time after the 4.5 minute mark so one person playing them all at once is amazing
Every dad born in the ‘70s is after you now (my dad)
Bro just bro’d bro a bro bro 💯 fr fr bro’s bro
I finally found what it was called..
“Better Call Saul” theme
I just yelled out Free Bird out loud when I hear the solo 💀
The better call saul was literally the first riff i learned that used barring
DAMNNN BRO, I LOVE THE TWANGY SOUND AND THE WHAMY BAR ON THE FIRST SONG
I’m always playing the BCS theme 😂
I love it
free bird is currently my favourite song
I don’t know how he said the better call Saul riff difficult to replicate, it’s so easy I learned it in 10 minutes 💀
Man's got more gear than guitar center and can't come up with an acceptable lead tone for free bird 💀
The guitar solo in freebird takes up as much song as the words take
Little Barrie are great. I recommend the album Shadow for a starting point
I laughed at the spinning rat one 😭💀
Am I the only one who knows the free bird solo from kingsman instead of memes?
Pure masterpiece
He tried so hard and still had trouble with free bird.
Okay, you won my subscription, haha
The faces he makes
That Jaguar sound🔥🔥🔥🔥
yeeeesss! I learned better call saul track purely for when i'm trying out guitars at guitar store LMAO
that Saul riff is so solid and that TOAN is hard as fuck
Better call Saul was one of the first I learned
