flawless right hand. I've just never heard anything like this guy. The first one I heard from young Kent was a Chicago tune. I still haven't picked up my jaw.
Nishimura is, in my opinion, the most incredible fingerstyle guitarist of all time. There are lots of other great ones, but nobody plays as flawlessly and tasteful as Kent. I'm guessing he put in a couple hours of practice and coupled it with a ridiculous amount of natural talent.
The most enjoyable part, one of them at least, is how much he makes it all about the song, not about himself. He gives everything to expressing the song's original beauty and intent and visibly enjoys making his guitar "leave it all on the field", so to speak. I welcome every video this kid puts out because I know it will be masterfully rendered.
As many songs as I've heard Kent play, he never misses any detail that imparts the essence of the songs. His interpretations are immaculate and has the skill to implement them.
Kent is the master of dancing back and forth between different instruments in the song being all played on the guitar. The way he lets one part ring out into the next riff.
I’ve listened to everyone of Kent’s songs as they’ve come out as I’ve been watching and listening to him for a while now. He is truly a special guitar player, and an insane human being, for being so young and being to transpose so many classic hit songs, and have them sound unquestionably indistinguishable from the originals is beyond immaculate. He is one of a kind. Keep rocking my dude.
I miss real music! Those were the reason I became a musician, the melodies and beautiful lyrics that still conjures wonderful memories. This Young man is just WoW!
Part of his genius that he intuitively senses what he can rely on his audience to mentally 'fill in', this leaving him free to sort of imply the notes instead of playing them. And beautifully recorded as well.
The best way I can describe Kent's arrangements, attack and layering of texture is feeling of breadth and depth. It may be just one instrument, but one feels it is an ensemble playing. OUTSTANDING!!!
Kent Nishimura me faz pensar que seria muito bom tocar como ele. Me pego em pensamentos sendo ele....kkkkk...toca muito. Tem uma técnica ímpar e maravilhosa. Parabéns!!!!
You are so right!! Late 60s through 80s for me. I listen 96% of this now a days. Kent is 19 yrs old. He will be 20 on March 1, 2023. Check out his web site and click like and follow he is one of a kind. Another one of a kind is Mariusz Goli of Poland.on utube. Check his guitar playing. He writes music scores for gaming etc. One music genius!
Couldn't agree with you more! I've heard and seen a lot of awesome guitarists, but Kent is on another level. There's maybe one or two others on his level, but Kent's recordings, purity and unadulterated style make him special and unique.
Thank you for reacting to this video. I see your comments on Kent's videos. :D I have probably heard this cover by Kent thousands of times now, at least twice each day, and it is wonderful to see someone else's reaction to it!
Haha...Wow... another Glasses Kingdom reaction to Kent Nishimura again so soon after "Careless Whisper"? Enjoyed and appreciate the commentary. Kent is amazing!
#glasseskingdom Duke I love this .......your reaction is like back in the days at Church Hill when you are playing I was like yooooow duke bad bad bad bad.....
His playing is exceptionally great, so I can imagine how much you liked him, but me? I’m elated to hear that you are fond of my reaction, I’m elated …. Thank you 🙏
I always say that Kent Knows how to make the original melody shine, and plays with respect, many other fingerstyle guitarists, just wann show off themselves. They are laud, and expresive, but they are loosing a lot of eements from original, that Kent is delivering in subtle and beautifull way.
May I request Glasses Kingdom to consider doing a reaction of Luca Stricagnoli - Feel Good Inc (Gorillaz cover). It's done on a triple-neck guitar. Something different for a change. Cheers!
young prodigies always tends to be asian. there's also sungha jung, where his videos started when he was 6 years old. I'm asian as well but sadly I don't have that talent😂
He’s from another planet!
flawless right hand. I've just never heard anything like this guy. The first one I heard from young Kent was a Chicago tune. I still haven't picked up my jaw.
Kent's approach and ability of covering every nuance, signature lick, dynamic and melody is beyond words. His dexterity is beyond human !!!
totally agreed
He’s unreal. He throws in a little run of artificial harmonics, but never loses a beat while maintaining the percussion, melody, and bass line.
very well said
this boy is one of the best guitar players i have ever heard
Number 1 in the world.
The best guitar player
He’s the total package !
indeed
Nishimura is, in my opinion, the most incredible fingerstyle guitarist of all time. There are lots of other great ones, but nobody plays as flawlessly and tasteful as Kent. I'm guessing he put in a couple hours of practice and coupled it with a ridiculous amount of natural talent.

I found him just the other week...he blow me away...I will never try to guess limits on guitar again.

absolutely
Kent with his tasteful playing as always.
As many songs as I've heard Kent play, he never misses any detail that imparts the essence of the songs. His interpretations are immaculate and has the skill to implement them.
indeed
One lead guitar one rythym guitar one bass guitar plus one percussionist put together!!
Kent is the master of dancing back and forth between different instruments in the song being all played on the guitar. The way he lets one part ring out into the next riff.
im a filipino and im a subscriber of kent for almost 3 years now, he's soooo good
This guitar is the luckiest guitar out there for having Kent Nishimura.
Omg 😳 you made me smile 😊 yes you are this guitar is most certainly Lady Luck
Flawless!

I’ve Never heard him play anything new. He IS a true Artist! Music Is more than a boomy bass and repeating the same 5 words over and over!
Oh my gosh, I just happened up on this accidentally. What beautiful guitar music! So rich and delicate.🌹🎶
Glad you like it!
Another awesome performance, thank you both.
He smoothly and flawlessly moves the capo with his strum hand 🤩
indeed
The best way I can describe Kent's arrangements, attack and layering of texture is feeling of breadth and depth. It may be just one instrument, but one feels it is an ensemble playing.
OUTSTANDING!!!
He is so awesome!!!
The melodies he played with the harmonic sounds nailed it all. We all waited for them.(Let alone the capo shift). Respect.
4 capo shifts....whoaaaa.....
Kent Nishimura me faz pensar que seria muito bom tocar como ele. Me pego em pensamentos sendo ele....kkkkk...toca muito. Tem uma técnica ímpar e maravilhosa. Parabéns!!!!
Such perfection!!!!
So delicate and beautiful I enjoyed watching this …I enjoy everything he does. Such a classy performance 🙌🙌🙌
Yes!
Ken Nishimura is nothing short of amazing and covers the gamit.
Don't assume that someone picks the songs for him. He's an old soul in a young body like myself who prefers the classics over the current radio hits.
i didn't assume lol, I'm curious , i wondered
Special! He made me love acoustic guitar. His playing adds such a beautiful quality to any piece 👌

I’am not surprised that this incredibile performance com from Japan ! ❤❤❤

so true

my pleasure
you really hit the nail on the head in terms of Kent's arrangement style and how incredible his taste in music is!
Wundervoll Kent Nishimura👍👍👍👍
Wow. Beautiful chord structures. One of my favourite pieces of music.
likewise mine , truly beautiful
Great guitarist to be. So effortless. It reminds my younger days Yes I am fully satisfied ☕☕
Haha...Wow... another Glasses Kingdom reaction to Kent Nishimura again so soon after "Careless Whisper"? Enjoyed and appreciate the commentary. Kent is amazing!
#glasseskingdom Duke I love this .......your reaction is like back in the days at Church Hill when you are playing I was like yooooow duke bad bad bad bad.....
Jah Jah , the good old days
I don't know what I enjoyed more....your reactions or Kent's playing!
His playing is exceptionally great, so I can imagine how much you liked him, but me? I’m elated to hear that you are fond of my reaction, I’m elated …. Thank you 🙏
Desde luego Kent es algo especial en este Mundo.
Incredible talent!
I was composing music, and for break I came to RUclips and I faced to your video. Very inspiring and wonderful for me. thanks a lot my friend 🌹🙏🤩
my pleasure always
Great playing! I really enjoyed your video!

Very well said
Im so happy and proud that i can play this. Its not 100% accurate like kent but i could say atleast 97%
97 is great i wished i was playing at least 10
Bad ass, he does an upstroke with his thumb on the baseline for one note lol
Kent is the real deal
Yeah... Nice and great..
I like it
I know what you mean. Hes doing the bass and the rhythm and the lead. It sounds like 3 people. And he doesn't miss a beat.
WOW!
Ex member of James Ingran's band was very impressed by Kent's performance.
Oh nice to see you here , yes Kent is truly impressive
@@GlassesKingdom I wonder if Kent is ever going to tour? My wife and I would like to see him.
@flinx649 I hope he does, where are you from
@@GlassesKingdom Southeast US
Magnifique Merci
i saw your jaw dropping.. hahaha.. :) react to his 25 or 6 to 4 video please.. :)
😆 I will
Greetings to you my brother TR👊🏿🥰 I enjoyed that😊....although I love listening to you when playing the ghittar🎸 yes🎶
Enjoy your day😘🎉💞
Sadly, James Ingram who provided the vocals for Just Once passed away in January 2019.
Reaction please John Asis hes a filipino percusive guitar player
Ok I will check in
@@GlassesKingdom thanks
Coffee..👍👍
May I request Glasses Kingdom to consider doing a reaction of Luca Stricagnoli - Feel Good Inc (Gorillaz cover). It's done on a triple-neck guitar. Something different for a change. Cheers!
Will check it
Kent uploaded this song about 9 months after James (rest his soul) passed in 2019.
wow
Please try also Johann Mendoza’s through the fire. 😊🙏
ok
young prodigies always tends to be asian. there's also sungha jung, where his videos started when he was 6 years old. I'm asian as well but sadly I don't have that talent😂
I've noticed it as well , about your talent , you probably don't recognize it yet
I studied that for more than 3 months. I got him at least a little bit😂
Feel free to cover my songs man, you got skills 🔥
Next react,abim finger-we can (3rd single)
okay
@@GlassesKingdom thx bro
He is great but some things are extra added. Look at the tumb slap att 3:24.
yes i thought so too there is overdubbed sections
Bakemono. monster.
Better than Carlos and Eddie and Jimmy combined.
just a pity that after the second transposition the low E string is slightly out of tune
omg you heard it ? i thought i would be nit picking if i mentioned that ... it was bearable tho
PLEASE lose the baseball cap, brother.
Dude, are you crying? Lol
omg i thought i hid it well
@@GlassesKingdom lol
Made me choke up
