@@IForgorMyHW Thats not true you can have nylon strings on guitars that don't have holes in the headstock ernie ball even makes ball end nylon strings for the pegs
how would they? the type of music Polyphia plays is something that normal people wont understand, especially if you play a cover of it as a solo player in front of a big audience
They say even if you can play perfectly by yourself, the second you play for others u play by instinct. Playing this good with stage fright is crazy man u going places
This is very true with instrumental songs. When there's a singer, the focus of the song will usually be on the singer, and they can take the attention away from the instrument for the most part. Having just instruments basically means that if the playing isn't clean, then the general audience who don't consume the instrumental music just thinks of it as "a song with no singer" no matter how hard it looks or sound. Shows you how hard it can be to play in as an instrumentalist or being in an instrumental band.
exactly what i was thinking. this isnt just because its instrumental like the other guy said. its specifically the style of polyphia / tim henson. its very weird pattern that only sound good if played perfectly
You played something that people in high school wanting to play guitar could only dream of my man. You're a legend in the making, so don't you dare stop.
@@ProgrammerUnlimited I wish you the best of luck bro! I could play it perfectly by myself but the moment I stepped on that stage keeping time just went out the window😂
@@Luuu9899 Why do people want to break some one down when it's just as easy to bring someone up? I hear and see talent no matter how polished and with any amount of confidence and praise it could be the motivation needed to become great. Everyone starts somewhere. In a world where most are not confident enough to put themselves out there in person to perform I admire him for that, and seeing someone even attempt this song in public is impressive. I hope the young man ignores any of the negative comments in this comment section. When I said he is built like Tim Henson I meant his long figures and tall and lanky frame. He has that same calm demeanor in his playing as well. I look forward to seeing what he can accomplish and share with us on RUclips.
One thing simply never change. The crowd will cheer intensely if you play river flow or something, but something like this barely gets any reaction from a public crowd 😂😂
This might be the type of crowd that would like Dua Lipa or whoever is popular even more than this. You displayed impressive musicianship here, great job.
There were people who actually appreciated it according to the reaction at the end of the video. What else did you expect the crowd to do? Like throw the flowers on the stage?
bro you smashed it plus you did it on an acoustic and people who play acoustic know just how hard it is to play a single solo on an acoustic and you played this extreme level of song flawlessly ❤
awesome dude, props to u for doing such a difficult song in front of a crowd. i swear that no matter how much i practice smth, stage fright ruins me... ^^"
This song doesn’t hit if you don’t play it the right way, play it every day and in one month listen to this to see the difference, good job and keep working my man! You can try Goat from polyphia, is Even better
Needs some work, but I can tell you’ve been putting in the work already. I’ve been playing for 15 years and it still took me a month straight to get it up to speed and mastered. The groundwork you’ve laid being In highschool is fantastic!
people seem to think that being silent during a performance is rude, makes the audience seem bored and uninterested. When it's really the most respectful thing they did, I dont know about anyone else, but I dont want people screaming and cheering when i'm trying to focus on playing a really difficult song. Plus, the whole place erupted when he was done playing.
I'm a drummer so chances are I don't know jack shit about what I'm talking about, but, dude, while your skill is impeccable and certainly impressive, you might not have been ready to perform this song if you understand what I mean. Math rock, especially Polyphia, is complex and takes a while to master. And to normal people like your audience probably is, unless you play it perfectly, it doesn't sound right. While it sounded great to me, I do feel like what I mentioned should be taken into consideration next time. Awesome job!
Understandable critique because I agree that Polyphia especially to people who aren't into them don't automatically sound as impressive as standard hair metal shredding solos, but also I think the microphone didn't do him any favours. It seemed like it would've sounded cleaner in person since even the parts I can hear in this video were kinda muffled/muted. So it might've sounded a bit smoother if I could hear some of the quieter notes that didn't get picked up. Also acoustic guitars are really finicky with that so it's not surprising that it's not just a clean even volume throughout as the amp isn't cranked up to support that. It's more of a nice nuanced sound but that doesn't get picked up by the video as well
Bro it sounded terrible for Anyone who’s a musician and especially familiar with the song you don’t need to sugar coat it. He needs to practice far more instead of doing it half assed for a crowd he knows won’t know the difference
This kid lived every budding guitarist's head dream while they're browsing RUclips covers at 3 AM wishing they didn't have to punch a fuckin clock in 4 hours. What an absolute legend.

i dont think people understand how hard this song really is, well played dude
Hello there fellow with immaculate music tastes
@@MemeSama lol wassup man
That is why I just play "Shape of You" in front of People
It's not that hard but, yeah. I agree
his skill is good, but wrong place 😅
The right song with the wrong audience.
The wrong song for the right audience ,dude that's a school not concert
Can't agree more.... Boring audience
@@abhisekroy7426 its a school not a concert lil bro
@@sataaniic Right? The cheers sounded pretty loud at the end, but not many people wanna go buckwild at a school show during the performance lol
yeah
What makes this even more cooler
He played it in a different acoustic
and the fact that acoustic strings are harder to play on
I think its still a nylon guitar
@@CalebGoodwin-i1l Its not nylon guitars have holes on the headstock
@@IForgorMyHW I know, I have one. thought I saw the holes, I guess I didn't look close enough.
@@IForgorMyHW Thats not true you can have nylon strings on guitars that don't have holes in the headstock ernie ball even makes ball end nylon strings for the pegs
Audience: “oh nice elevator music, anyway as i was saying…”
Simple minded people
😂
People dont understand just how hard it is to even play this song.
Well done dude.
how would they? the type of music Polyphia plays is something that normal people wont understand, especially if you play a cover of it as a solo player in front of a big audience
@@CarNerd7 frfr, he shouldve cover a taylor swift song or smthn instead. he'd probably be in the local news for that.
this songs not hard to play at all if u know what ur doing.. LOL
@@chakibchemso yeah lol
@@DanielMacEachern1 upload a vid of you doing it
“I guess you guys aren’t ready for that yet, but your kids are gonna love it” hopefully
LMFAO ok Marty
Back to the future!!! Spot on reference! 😂
Perfect reference.
Yo i just watch back to the future 😂
Alriiight McFlyyyy
When I was in high school, reading 8 lines of a poem was peak stage entertainment. Holy shit, man. Jawdropping.
my school brings grime rappers and beatboxers in, they're cool but I'd much rather get this lmao
That sounds so awesome, I would have loved to experience some slam jam in my high school experience
You can tell the audience loved it just by the screaming after he finished, they just didn’t wanna make noise during the show since it was a bit quiet
They say even if you can play perfectly by yourself, the second you play for others u play by instinct. Playing this good with stage fright is crazy man u going places
huge balls to do it infront of a crowd. severely underappreciated. good stuff man keep it up
im still permanently blind from looking at the guitar tabs
Fr
Tabs exists?
@@xnoobwarx4571u read sheet music dont you
that too on an acoustic 🙌
He's got the Danny Yau hair so you know he learnt this whole song an hour before the performance
The problem with songs like this is, if you don't play it perfectly, it just sounds noisy

Yeah, the mistakes.... you know it's a hard song, but it doesn't make the mistakes any less unpleasant to hear.

@@ProgrammerUnlimited I wish you the best of luck bro! I could play it perfectly by myself but the moment I stepped on that stage keeping time just went out the window😂
If u get nervous, just relax and only look at what you’re playing
If I was in the audience at this moment I would have screamed and given you a standing ovation, for real

You’re built just like Tim Henson. Magnificent performance…... Bravo!! You really channeled your inner Polyphia!

am i the only one who is looking at his impressive calves?
and his amazing hair❤
Yeah
Yeah bro, when you shave your legs your calves really pop up. Even with my smallish calves they look kinda decent when I shave them.
east Asian guys genetically tend to have nice calves
@@W7RSON I'm pretty sure that his are genetically clean shaved calves
we got you bro. that crowd dont deserve you
The audience knew it was his time to shine so they didn't clap until he was finished!
:D it's mindblowing that you can play this flawlessly
Easily the most talented dude at that school 🥲
The bossa part was absolutely gorgepus on that acoustic. Great job mate
Mate you deserved way more crowd pop. This is awesome. Amazing playing. On an acoustic too!!
Wow that was good even you messed up a little but I know that piece is so hard to play well done brother.
I just gave this video the 7000 like! And you deserve every single one of them! Keep it up! 🧡💜
YOU'RE PLAYING ON A ACCOUSTIC? DANG YOU'RE GODDAMN CRAZY, YOUR PLAY WAS INCREDIBLE!
This might be the type of crowd that would like Dua Lipa or whoever is popular even more than this. You displayed impressive musicianship here, great job.
Dua lipa is pretty cool tho
y u shading dua lipa bro they were screaming at the end too did you want them to start clapping mid song
There were people who actually appreciated it according to the reaction at the end of the video. What else did you expect the crowd to do? Like throw the flowers on the stage?
cant do dua lipa dirty like that
she's in the same business as other trash pop stars but her composition is really fucking good
Leaving my comment here, I predict it will get million views after 5 years or sooner 👌🏼
Bro did this on Acoustic
And I for a Sec thought it was Electric
Massive Respect
HOW THIS DO3SN'T HAVE ENOUGH RECOGNITION!!!! YOU DESERVE A MILION SUBSCRIBERS, DUDE!!!
Excellent job my dude! I’m sorry the audience didn’t appreciate the absolute monster of a song this is! You did amazing!
Lmao if I play this in my school ill be knowm as the cool kid 🔥

This music is pristine. You did a great job at playing this
My man killin it on stage yet the audience had no idea what happenin lmao. Keep it up buddy
dudes rock.
you're a beast for this.
This shit was insane wow dude keep that going. You’re going somewhere with that.
I wish I can play Polyphia in my highschool ! You slay and you inspire me thank you !
Well played! This audience man, give the man some credit this songs nuts lol.
good shit man, this song took me FOREVER to learn.
don't care about what the haters say keep doing what you do!
This kid has a bright future in guitar music. He shouldn't get discouraged by the funeral audience.
If you feel, you are less, just remember not to people who give a damn about music man. You’re special!
well, brave soul, hard mind
Amazing performance my friend. Very few human beings could play it that well in front of people
damn dude u really cooked the stage, you gained my respect as a guitarist from Vietnam
Jeeze, I can't even imagining myself succeeding at playing this. Good job
This song doesn’t hit if you don’t play it the right way, play it every day and in one month listen to this to see the difference, good job and keep working my man! You can try Goat from polyphia, is Even better
Già ricordarsi la canzone e suonarla in maniera che la gente riesca a riconoscerla dimostra bravura , gg
Needs some work, but I can tell you’ve been putting in the work already. I’ve been playing for 15 years and it still took me a month straight to get it up to speed and mastered. The groundwork you’ve laid being In highschool is fantastic!
Idc if Im on that crowd, I'd be crying bcuz of how of a banger playing god is
ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL MY G
Major props for playing such a tough song on stage, even with all the messups 🔥🔥🔥
Wow ! In an Iron acoustic makes it still sound insane !
idk why when I read Playing God in the title I thought it was Paramore but I was in for a treat, well played!
live, on acoustic and standing? that is hella impressive
"and next up is tyler with his cover of wonderwall"
You are really good playing the guitar
In Germany we say "Perlen vor die Säue" which means something like... "pearls for pigs" :D Awesome performance!!!
As a guitarist fellow bro i know you are amazing....bro keep it up...
mistakes are killing my psyche
You smashed this out dude, well done.
You did great despite the stage fright 🔥🔥
Wonderfully done man
Bros blessed with awesome skill and a fire first name
NO WAY! I SAW THIS LIVE, IT WAS SO COOL!! lol i was telling my friends how hard this piece is, and they had no knowledge on polyphia or playing god
Bro absolutely MURDERED those harmonics wtf
Playing is really dangerous becuase it doesn't sound as flashy yet ANY mishap makes it sound like garbage.
DAAAAYUUUUUM look at you go bro good shit man. This was really well done!!! Youre very skilled to be pulling this off with an audience
Polyphia’s songs are a lot of fun to play. I’m working on ABC and Tim’s part of classical dragon right now.
thats amazing bro
Rock on bro!!!
idk about the audience but bro, that's crazyyy
Good job dude! I would’ve stood and clapped for you
futura leyenda...
that insane dude
Kudos!

Amazing bro! You did an amazing job!
