I think if earth was in a battle with an alien race, and the only way to survive was to win a guitar battle. Guthrie would save us.
There actually exists an anime about a washed up guitarist who gets recruited by aliens for their intergalactic war.
"Legend of Black Heaven"
Is it a good anime? Sounds like i might be interested, but theres so many shows i think would be good, and then i dont like. Did you like it?
Michael not agree. Remember buckethead is on their side. Would be a sick battle for sure.
fun fact bucket head has 264 albums
aidanscovers past one month since your coment, probably he has 347 now.
According to Guthrie's interview with the Captain Lee, Guthrie wrote this when he was 19. Holy shit.
I'm guessing he's just referring to the main melody, because there's no way anyone could envision the scope of this piece without having a band of other skilled musicians, which is hard to find when you're only 19. I'm 19 and where I live trying finding people to play with that are my age and as good as me is like trying to win the lottery. The chances aren't as slim, but it's still pretty bad. I'm not even joking, I'm so jealous of people that live in the center of big cities. If I had other people as good as me and as passionate I am about writing music, first of all I would be happy and my general well-being would be better, and I'd already be playing gigs.
have you ever considered going to music school? You'll meet lots of skilled, passionate musicians there!
Also, there definitely is a possibility, and it's even easier now, because there are TONS of programs that you can use to create music and write music. Even if you don't have this, if you are good at music theory (which, if you look at some of his videos, he definitely is) you could write any sorts of pieces. Back when i studied music theory i could write anything from a choir piece, to jazz.
Not saying that he didn't collab, but it's not impossible to write complex music by yourself if you're invested. There's always a way
I don't know how old he was back then, but I can tell you he already had it recorded in 93 cause it was released in guitar magazine that year
+TheSamuraiApocalypse i mean its possible, jason becker made crazy stuff before he was even 18
Alex bob Jason Becker invented this style of neoclassical fusion jazz blues. of course Yngwie shaped Neoclassical but Jason Becker set a bar.
Blue by Jason was written when he was 16 or something.
03:07-03:31
That is probably the most beautiful 24 seconds ever played on electric guitar. I feel healed from any mental or physical problem every time I hear it.
prefer the riff that begins at 3:31
The whole thing is magical. First time I’m hearing it. Music is amazing.
For me, its the clean riff starting just after the 1:50 mark. That chicken pickin' with the spacey reverb is awesome.
@@mackhomie6 hell yeah
Hands down the best bit is 0.00 - 5.09
Come on props to that bass line
Right? Same for the drums!
Props to all the instruments working together and complementing each other.
nylonsteel the bass player is Guthrie's brother: Seth Govan :)
Yep
Yosoy Damn... Talented family!
the bass arrangement of the song is amazing
fuck i agree on this
Not surprising - but the bass player is Seth Govan, Guthrie's brother.
Ppl always overlook the bass. And you're right. Bass arrangement is incredible.
Yes, totally agree
Why am i not able to notice it?
The most complete guitarist in the world
thats buckethead mate 😉
a guitarist without a face is not complete
BJ12578 Buckethead isnt as good with phrasing, bends, unique progressions and in my opinion composing as Guthrie. While buckethead is extremely talented in many different styles i don't believe he is nearly as good as GG.
buckethead it's not very complete, i love him but he always run and make riffs using only the natural minor scale on the classic three chords of rock music for example( b minor, a major, g major) I mean he 's very skilled (tapping slap ecc.. ) But ironically he is very commercial for what he does and he is often locked in his patterns and that it's not good because he repeat him self al lot of time, he has not freedom. Instead Guthrie have a great music theory and he is really open mind, he can do on the guitar exatly what he want without repeat himself in fact he mix jazz rock blues funk classic music ecc.. Maybe I prefer Buckethead because he makes beautiful and soulfull riffs and composition but Guthrie Govan is on a complete other level.
Never
As someone who finds shredding to be soulless and flashy, Guthrie Govan is an anomaly to me. He is able to play quick without sounding like a "shredder" and still play tastefully and within the song. He plays to make the tune.
+MrDT543 That's because many other shredders play fast just for the sake of playing fast. Some barely care for expressing any musical ideas. Guthrie on the other hand, has many musical ideas, some which need to be played fast t. He plays for the sake of music, not for playing flashy stuff which have no true depth.
Depends on your definition of shredding.
+MrDT543 Indeed, he is very good at mixing both into something very good! Now, I don't know if you are into metal or not, but I'd suggest looking at "Dave Davidson" from "Revocation". In my opinion, he does this very well too, and is therefore also my favorite guitarist. "Per Nilsson" from "Scar Symmetry" is also up there. His playing is a bit more "technical'ish" though, using very "out of this world" scales. :)
I feel Steve Vai is capable of doing it better
Jamie MacMillan couldn't disagree more, but that's what makes music beautiful! It's all objective.
At 19, I was living an aimless existence. At 19, Guthrie Govan was writing epic guitar pieces.
If it's any consolation, he doesn't really like this piece and never plays it any more.
hmm shld i like the comment, its at 69 likes rn
@@holliswilliams8426 yeah he literally said he regrets writing it lmao
@holliswilliams8426 well, he will have his reasons, but to me this is a beatiful song.
@@idk9637really? Howcome?
guthrie is such a legend, he did a guitar clinic at my music college years ago and rocked up an hour late straight from the pub carrying a 6pack of beers with him and spent most of the clinic talking to random people for over an hour about random stuff telling funny stories then realised he spent to much time talking and just shredded for close to an hour straight with the band. best.clinic.ever! he was almost rocking a band new cornford amp serial number 001 witch he left for us to play with for a few weeks
Fuck yea
I hope that's a joke, otherwise I would seriously lose respect for this dude.
That's so cool , I'll bet he shredded .That's a trip guithrie goven played collage. Your music teacher must've been really good cause the teaches i had were were either classical or jazz snobs that never play basic, like playing in E flat instead open E, or just talk about improvising rather than actually playing. What kind beer?
I can't see him doing that but fair enough if he did 🙃🤘
to be honest I'd be pretty disappointed to have someone show up that late to a clinic that they were supposed to be giving.
THIS MUSIC IS BEAUTIFUL!! MY GRANDSON BRANDON SENT ME THIS AND THOUGHT I WOULD LIKE IT. SO I LISTENED TO IT AND HE WAS WRONG. I DIDNT LIKE IT. I LOVED IT!! KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK AND TO MY GRANDSON BRANDON KEEP ON SENDING ME AWESOME MUSIC!!!!!!

I don't think people truly understand how good Guthrie Govan is. This might be the pinnacle of human being's ability on guitar.
guthrie is incredible but what about shawn lane
jlowe, everything he’s written is the pinnacle of a human’s ability of guitar.
@@_shadow_4477 lane is a god in his own right but govan has truly mastered almost every aspect of the guitar technique wise and he is a phenomenal writer on top of it
@@skin_e_guy
I agree.
That’s just very accurate
Does anyone disagree this is the greatest guitarist to have ever graced the earth!?!!
3:07 is so damn f***ing smooth o.o
It is really dissapointing to read comments which have mostly aim to compare one guitarist with another. Except from thinking about who is better, sit, listen, take what you can from this excelent piece of music. Don't bother who is better or who is using similiar technique or sound similiar to someobody else, it is useless.
***** But that is a void statement to a degree because one can't define "better musicians". It's all subjective. It is less so in football.
I think we're all guilty of doing it at some point.
He wrote this song when he was 17.
***** You can compare musicians, but you can't define one as better. Comparison between two pieces of music is subjective. Defining a difference is objective.
***** You're completely missing the point. Comparing any two musicians with regards to the quality of their music is subjective. There's no "defining" here, because defining deals with facts. Just because Guthrie would likely make better music than a 3 year old doesn't mean he is an inherently better musician. And I've never been a fan of comparing people who're still in their formative years to others, because it's not taking into account their whole picture. It's like comparing a ten year old footballer to Messi, it would be non-sensical and pointless.
Rip to my best friend Chris Millsap this was the last song him and drank to rest in peace bro you really were the best
Joe Bonamassa, Derek Trucks, John Mayer, these musicians guide my fingers as i put them on my guitar. Guthrie Govan guides my mind when I put on the headphones. Why not the fingers? Sometimes you just prefer to listen. Not to ruin the magic for yourself when playing it.
Or because it's impossible to play like Guthrie lol
+jrubin1994 lol
+Kulpa Exactly..Same with petrucci for me
Exactly. I play Vai but only listen to Guthrie. Somehow you just put it into words which I couldn't do myself =)
Good excuse bro 🤣
Always puts me in a good mood
Seriously i get lost in melody whenever I hear that..so much emotion in it
Jason Harris Very cool :)
Jason Harris Rad!!
Awesome guitar it defiantly puts me in a good mood feels like summer is hear :)
Too me 2 days of practice just to learn the first 25 seconds of the song
To anyone that wants to learn this
May the god of guitar have mercy on your fingers
He wrote it 20 years ago when he was in his mid 20s
is this going to qualify as a humble brag?
@@mackhomie6 Not really. The opening section isn't super hard to play - I can kind of play most of it too.
@@bakarenibsheut12 I guess it depends on the skill level of the commenters. I ditched my PRS for a custom flamenco blanca probably around the time this was released. What about that? Humblebrag by loose association?
Edit: that's also not true. But I did switch to a classical guitar. The custom sits in a case, wasting away because the temperature changes are too big in this building. I lost my now hard to get Yamaha flamenco guitar to a pawn shop and by pure luck found it listed for sale online and got a deal on it. You didn't ask about any of this
@@mackhomie6 You're right, I didn't ask XD And yeah, I think that definitely qualifies as a humblebrag. Honestly, though, Guthrie's music is bound to attract commenters who are guitar nerds themselves, and are more likely to be, or aspire to be, more proficient players.
the part at 0:49 to 0:55 is pure gold. Got goosebump every times!
did dean_lamb_ from ig bring you here?
No why?
+MoonWalkerTexsRanger just wondering because the dude posted a cover of the beginning of the song and it attracted me to looking this video up. your comment just caught my eye
BurritoMcChomp You are the weird one here.
Well you're very weird if this music doesn't make you feel anything. ( ''shivers''? ''chills''? I may have said the wrong term, English is not my native language. C'mon man don't be dishonest you know what I meant to say.)
You have to be obsessed to play this good. It has to consume so much of your life. It's that simple.
That's a problem where society wants useful stuff and not get overwhelmed by euphoria
This is the song that made me an instant fan. I've been blessed to see him twice live since.
Such a brilliant and inspiring song. Especially that opening riff! Message to myself: if you are watching this comment by coincidence years later, remember your love for guitar and the great inspiration this song has caused you. If you are still in a rut after all this time, never give up!
P.S. you were drunk while writing this, and in a great mood. Just putting this down for future reference!
@@PriestOfTheUnholy. Thank you for reminding of this super random comment I apparently left! This is honestly so funny. I play a lot but still struggle to make significant progress. All things considered I am happy that I haven't given up on playing guitar. Guess I will let this serve as yet another reminder to keep going. Sober this time!
@@PriestOfTheUnholy. One of the things I love about playing an instrument is that there really is no limit to what you can learn. Sounds like you just need to set some new objectives! Maybe you could shift your focus to songwriting, or maybe even learn another instrument! And yeah... not much you can do about the noise, except play with headphones. Living in a dormitory, that is what I have settled with myself over the last few years.
Keep the guitar going!
This main riff is so epic...props Guthrie mate!

The harmony + melody from the intro are for sure one of the most moving compositions of all time, it's impossible to listen to that and don't just think about live at all
If you like this track, buy the album!! He is such a LEGEND!!! Seriously, Guthrie Govan deserves 100% profit for all of the music he makes.
The melodic phrasing after the break is sick
A perfect demonstration of what guitars can do.
We need this album on Spotify asap

People are just too biased to admit that this guy is the best guitarist in history. Fucking masterpiece. Fucking genius.
Listen to plini. I don't know if it will change your mind, but they're both amazing.
@@aidenafshar9274 i love plini and think hes an amazing guitarist, but guthrie is streets ahead. better than everyone including the new wave -- henson, abasi, plini everyone are just a step below
@@rew6184 how so? I don't know enough abt guthrie to definitively say which one is better, so I'm curious what makes you think so.
@@aidenafshar9274 Not the guy you asked but I agree with him so I thought I'd answer. I love Henson, Tosin and all those guys. And not just the guitarists, every single member of their bands is an absolute virtuoso. So technically, I don't think Guthrie is THAT much superior to them. I'm frightened at the thought of what Tosin Abasi will be able to play when he has 20 more years of experience lol.
But Guthrie's stuff is just more...musical I suppose? More melodic. It's calming but it also takes you by surprise. It's not technical for the sake of being technical.
The biggest part of Guthrie's growth was actively listening to music. He would listen to anything he could get his hands on. Guthrie said his father taught him his first chords when he was like 3 or 4. Dude spent his entire childhood either practicing guitar or sitting with his ears perked in front of the record player. I just think all of that led to him having a much larger arsenal or bag of tricks than your average virtuoso.
Steve Vai has his own style. You still go 'wtf' when you listen to it but it's unexpected in the ways you expected it be(if that makes sense?). Same with most guys. Guthrie just has more versatile chops imo. (And his improvising would put anyone to shame)
@@chrisj1319 I absolutely agree with your statement about the improvising. I haven't honestly heard enough of him to determine how much better he is than the new wave guitarists, but I also don't doubt that he is around the same level technically. A decent amount of the new wave stuff is technical for the sake of it, but in cases like polyphia I'm okay with it because it's made up for with everything else. Regardless, I think the main reason I don't fully believe he is that far above everyone else (other than just not hearing him much due to lack of releases), is that I haven't really seen him push boundaries the same way the new wave guys are. One thing I do want to specify though is that the popular new wave guitarist's/bands aren't pushing that far compared to some smaller bands like vildhjarta, car bomb, slice the cake, humanity's last breath, wilderun, etc (i know these are all fairly heavy bands but nothing else came to mind).
I listen to this song every time I brush my teeth.
I feel like this track probably single-handedly inspired the entire current generation of modern progressive rock/metal lead guitarists. The main lick is so intervalic and I don’t think I’ve heard anything that dates back further with the same quality to it. So brilliant and inspiring. I’m so glad players like Tosin Abasi lead me to check out Guthrie’s work
What a beautiful master piece, it makes me feel so good, so calm.
This fragment 04:05-04:33 always shakes me.
I could literally listen to this song every single day
3:07 that part makes me feel so peaceful, i can't even put into words
even the man himself loses his words to that particular section ruclips.net/video/A8CoUmmOKpI/видео.html
Saw him in Rome. Simply the best ever seen. His touch, feeling and timing are just form the outer space. And he's so incredibly humble and down to earth. Incredible.
The feeling I get every time I listen to a full play through of this song with loud volume is the same feeling I get when a crazy roller coaster finally comes to an end. Pure elation, no matter how many times I listen.
this song makes me feel so peacefull and protected... like for some reason i just imagine guthrie floating with his guitar and enjoying
that's making my laugh out loud. cosmic floating Guthrie
I would love to see Guthrie play this song on his fretless guitar.

Yesss Guthrie is great but the bass player is another masterpiece who makes this song incredible . He gives the feel and soul of the music
His brother Seth performed bass for the recording of this album.
The nuance/ghost notes and super gelled out tone make this a treat. This is on my learn by ear list and a tone goal for me, would love to hear the iso track.
I'm in tears...this is profoundly moving as well as thrilling and mind boggling!
This may be the single greatest display of guitar virtuosity ever. Absolutely stunning.
i wish youtube would give us the option to like a song more than once
I think this could be most complete guitar track ever recorded. Simply mind-blowing.
so many emotions so many colours .this is the genius of Guthrie .it's not a song it's a story .u can literally feel the notes inside ur chest .I feel like m listening to some classical music ..such is the depth of Guthrie 's music .GODLIKE!!

I can't reconcile the fact Guthrie wrote this when he was just 25! Another masterpiece, dispensed effortlessly.
Apparently he was 19 when he wrote it. Lol.
I am a trumpet player, but when i listened to this at first in my life, my heart was thumbing and every time I listen to this , it’ s the same feeling.. just perfect. ABSOLUTELY great music.
Just listening again and again with open mouth.... This piece is PERFECT
So fucking deep spirit of this piece
I listen to this everyday when I go to work and it's still awesome!
The best guitarist in the world in my opinion. He's so expressive playing so many genres and styles. Can't wait to see him live in July.

The main solo parts are among the very finest guitar playing laid ever down on tape imo..
I believe it's my favorite from this album and maybe from all guthrie's tracks that I know. So intense and powerful. Love it.
His stuff is very soulful and melodic with enough jam to make it all just right.
1:54 identical tone to Jeff Beck's on Blow by Blow "you know what I mean". Guthrie's use of the whammy bar to stretch a final, almost desperate weeping half note always reminded me of Jeff's playing.

Took the smoothest shit of my life listening to this
If you had to put heaven into a single sound, this would certainly be it. That riff which continues throughout the song, overlaid by shredding, is so reminiscent of the sea and waves and it's truly beautiful. It's fast but flows so seamlessly... Just pure elation.
This is me experiencing Guthrie for the first time
All that I can say is that I felt goosebumbs and vibed through the entire song

If you combine the skills of all the best guitarist from the last hundred years, you get Guthrie. He has mastered the thing, nothing left for him to learn.

This took me back to high school when my then boyfriend (an amazing bass guitarist) first introduced me to this track. My mind was blown. Today I searched and searched like a lunatic for this track for I had forgotten the name. And that first sound...omg... Euphoria!! I hate to say this but they don't make musicians like Govan anymore I think.
Powerful bass line
only the best guitarrist (phrasing, groove, slow, fast, serious, funny, just the whole pack)
GOD DAMN this is good!!
fuck yes.. i just abrely got into him recenylu god damn he is so amazing
Its rare that an instrumental gives me chills like this. To think this is Guthrie at 19, just 2 years older than me..
He wrote that main riff at 19, but recorded this when he was in his late 30s.
The Main riff is so *JUICY*
This song is pure light. It’s like a lovely nostalgia from a memory I’ve never had but it’s still beautiful.

The bends at 4:35 .. mindblowing.
I had a good day today but I listened to Waves and remind how shitty guitarist I am ;'-)
+Adam K I bet Guthrie used to be as shitty as many of us in the beginning. The difference is that he practiced hours to get better while I'm slacking off and watching his videos :P
+Aichuk Tripura he started playing guitar at 3 years old :(
+Nathan XEQZA think of it this way those first few years he probably didn't have very much drive to learn.
me too
+Adam K in a couple of years you wont be anymore, atleast if you practice everyday ;) When times goes by the practicing is alot more fun becouse you will be really good at it.
2:40 to 2:48 HOLY SHİT man,that flow of the phrase it's insane
how can anybody compares this to Satriani or Vai? Guthrie's playing is something completely different and unexplainable..
there is no comparison in art only in skill. Satriani and Vai are great musicians.
+Desi guy They are truly great. I don't get why people have to compare the guitar virtuosos as if one HAS to be better than the other. Each one is good at something. If they were all comparable, then they won't be individually renowned. Malmsteem would be Gilbert would be Johnson would be Satriani would be Vai would be Govan, etc. What a boring world!
I was like that too. With time they will understand what an artist is and if there was no difference there wouldn't be music. It would be like eating salty food everyday missing out on erotic cakes lol
+Str Kat I will say that his playing is unique, but he explains himself quite eloquently in many interviews!
+Str Kat Let me quote Guthrie in response to people comparing musicians - "So much of what's good about music ceases to make sense when you attempt to analyse it from a 'who's the best?' perspective..."
Guthrie Govan is one of the most sophisticated guitar players of the more famous and popular guitar players. a lot of jazz approaches.

Best comment ever
Greg Howe is so "overrated"..I don't understand, why you adore him so much. Heard of Andy Timmons? He is one of the best ever!
best coment
EnforcerII Andy Timmons is so "overrated"... I don't understand why you adore him so much. Heard of Tony MacAlpine? He is one of the best ever! :p
EnforcerII Greg howe is the most innovative guitarist ever. He invented the vibrato slides that guthrie also uses 24/7 and way more guitarists do that inclusive myself. His sound is unique and incredible. Every tone that greg howe playes is right and beautiful. his technique is great and he also came from the neo-classical world. And his grooves like kick it all over or 5 mile limit or direct injection. They all kick andy timmons ass. Trust me. If you understand the definition of an great guitar player and musician. Then you need to have more respect voor greg howe because his the best! And i have 1000 arguments why.
