What's your favorite chord progression? What do you think of the end result of this video? ANSWER ME!
Music is Win hi
Every good chord progression has its own specialty. My favorite is fade to black and one.
Wonderwall. Duh.
This is a joke please don't kill me.
Little wing jimi hendrix
My favorite is The Spirit Carries On or Through Her Eyes by Dream Theater
For me "The Rain Song" have a truly beatiful chord progression, such an underrated song man
Joel Hernandez Landeros Amazingly beautiful
Oh yes
I say capo, not to be mistaken with capo. I hear a lot of people pronounce it capo, but the right way to say it is capo.
Allan Andersen - thanks for clearing that up for me.
I literally just kept reading it as capo
Ah yes you can't forget the great capoo pronunciation
Tomato, tomato.
hahahhahahahah
This is the very song that was playing in the room when my sister passed. She'd been in hospice for about a week, fading away from brain cancer, but she fought hard. I couldn't think of a more fitting song to be playing if I were stepping off of this world.
Very cool stuff
Leonard Cohen wrote Hallelujah .... but Jeff did a wondrous job !!!
Yeah, the fact that there was no mention of Leonard Cohen when bringing this song up is pretty disappointing. I understand why Jeff Buckley was the primary focus, but yeah.
He said it was made popular by Jeff, not that Jeff wrote it. But still should have gave credit to the original writer.
@@leejaybirdmusic9829 that was my point. In the context, Jeff's version makes sense to be the focus. Just does quite a disservice to the one who wrote it by not at least giving him a nod. In the grand scheme of things, doesn't make much difference, though.
I get your point but no version compares to Jeff's, might aswell have been his song
@@iamanactualcat I mean, speak for yourself. There are over 200 professional covers of this song alone. I prefer the original over all others.
"Guitar players are great at filling empty space" Unless that empty space is their bank account lol
Black people have no money
Ouch.
Hexadeciml *Tosin Abasi, a black guitarist with his own series of guitars that is also very popular and is in a well known band while also having enough money to play with Steve Vai, Joe Satriani, and some other people is a person who is black who actually has a lot of money
GOTTEM
Hexadeciml what the fuck man
You are the best chord progression ever Tyler.
Murmer Ferret thank you
yeah that made me shed a tear
Agreed. I love how informational Tyler is, he is a great instructor and he tosses in a good slice of humor now and then to keep it fresh 😉
no u
Thanks.
Hendrix's "Little Wing" is my favorite progression.
Oh yeah!
I agree Jeff Buckley's rendition was hauntingly beautiful. What an amazing guitarist and singer,beautiful voice and beautiful playing. I love this song.
I play this all the time and am so happy to improve upon it. So beautiful.
For me "house of the rising sun" one of the most beautiful chord progression.
This is the first video where you show yourself as a good teacher!!! I have seen many of your videos, but finally, you show good skills. Seems like you are super relaxed and eager to tell and teach. Keep up the good work mate!!!
i think the best progression is the diary of a madman into. RIP Randy.
holy crap i was about to post this. lol very true. also the clean piece before the solo. if you ever get a hold of the removed diary isolated guitar track, man your in for an amazing treat
Richard Baldwin exactly! The little lick right after he says “the mirror tells me lies” is genius
@@dchambers4271 randy was truly something special. he will always be my favorite
The Prophet by gary moore has a really beautiful chord progression
Alex Kna 🇮🇪
I just listened to it. It's very nice, but I prefer "Still got the blues for you" by Gary Moore
My favorite is the intro of The Great Gig in the Sky. I know that's a keyboard, but i really like it
Daniel Parada that’s a great song but AAAAAAAAAAAYIEEEEEEEAAAAAAA OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOYAAAAAAAAAA are like 70% of the lyrics
And? Think of the voice as another instrument and suddenly there's no problem with the lyrics cause there are none :D
BeatleJWOL u should also listen to breath (in the air)
Beautiful lesson. And yes, Hallelujah is my favorite, too. Such a beautiful song.
Stopped for the guitar. That is absolutely gorgeous!
Legendary Licks you can't play, because they are in a completely untraditional or abnormal chord progression....
But still already knowing this song, this does have such a beautiful progression to it! Awesome work here!
Opeth be like
@@grabber_blu_angel Ahh absolutely my man haha
So beautiful...sounds really good...I love this song...thanks for highlighting this
That song always gives me the shivers, it's beautiful, thanks Tyler. 👍❤️
I thought it was Paint it Black by The Rolling Stones because of the thumbnail
Oof
Only bitches play it with a capo
Love that song
Knopfler's "Going home: the theme of local hero" is my fav chordprog, Hendrix's "Little wing" and "Bold as Love".
Tyler your voice just relaxes me
GREAT video. Love your “plug-in voicings” of a very simple and beautiful song.
Finally someone talks about Jeff Buckley!
I’m partial to “something” by the Beatles for beautiful chord progressions
Ciarán Cooling me too
love the idea of playing the chords in different places to come up with different ideas to a progression. Thanks for this
Beautiful one of my favorite songs ever.
Hey Tyler thanks for the amazing content! Your also insane at guitar! Very inspirational for a young new musician like me! :D
Opeth chord progresions are the most beautiful thing in the world
Yeessss! I like you
Yes! Hours of Wealth, In My Time of Need and Isolation Years
Couldn't agree more! The Drapery Falls, Burden and the leper affinity came immediately to my mind
yep your the man!
wojtek1721 in my time of need. Window pain. Bleak. And HARVEST!
This is a great one! Thanks for sharing!
ok seriously.. best timing for a video ever. My grandfather died at that day you uploaded this. Finally i learned a cool way to play this song! Thanks!
I say " *Kapoo* "
Cockpoop
mr G Twelvie spotted, fire when ready
Kapo or Cay-po, dont think it really matters in the bigger scheme of things! :P
André Feldmann its a reference to a vid from jared i think
@@annccherrr0269 Ya got it, man. One of his guitar store videos
I feel like you need a Sofa for chilling on for the new studio...
I started learning to play the guitar as a 13 year old in 1970,... my original passion was fuelled by attemting to replicate Jimmy Page and Ritchie Blackmore's playing styles...I'm still learning. There's something about the song "Hallelujah" which makes me feel that you're attempting gild a particularly beautiful lily..... Adding more notes won't change the original,
Whether it's the Leonard Cohen version, or later revisions,...and the pure raw emotion has to have the "space to breathe" ... that empty space says much more than 10,000 notes.
Many thanks for the video , there were definitely things to learn.
That tone though oohwee! Awesome sustain from that sexy PRS. That joink will make any progression sound amazing
Most beautiful chord progression ever is in the intro and outro of the Hand Cannot Erase album
I dunno if the song "If i get high" by Nothing But Thieves counts as a chord progression but its still the most beautiful I've heard
Finally
I love Nothing But Thieves!
'You know me too well' is so underrated
Graveyard Whistle!
Y.A.P the Red they are just a top tier band, goddamn love em
Dude I’m loving the new studio!
In for a treat? The dooo's version of Hallelujah is a must watch 😁😁😁😁
I just learned how to play Happy Birthday on a my guitar and I'm getting pretty good I think with my lessons, so I think I might be able to do this real soon.
Like with chords or with random frets?
Sara Wilcker practice ur minor pentatonic scales and get bone extensions in ur fretting hand then you’ll be “pretty good”
*G-D-C INTENSIFIES*
Superb choice, excellent video.
The first time I've heard it was back in 2005. Last day of middle school, in the school's chapel (imagine the acoustics), the school's choir performed it accompanied on the guitar by a guy I knew. That day I had an epiphany. That was the day I decided to learn to play guitar. And Hallelujah was the very first song I've been able to play and sing at the same time. Thanks for this lesson Tyler!
My favourite composition is Canon in D. Really depends on exposure as well, I’m told that canon in D is played in every Christian wedding so people from christian countries are accustomed to that composition.
But in other places whenever I play canon people think I’m some expert musician
Yeah, that's like the cheesiest thing you can ever play, up there with "we are the champions"
Yeah but it's meaningful to so many ppl. It was played at my mother's funeral. It never fails to tug at my heart strings. Same for many. Either Wedding or Funeral nostalgia. Cheesy or not, it always makes me up for a good 😖😫😭!!
red hot chili peppers - sir psycho sexy (outro)
Procodoi
definitely
@@samuelebrazzarola801 concordo
Thanks for sharing - that really was BEAUTIFUL !!
Tyler you are an inspiration.
Love the Buckley version, but Leonard Cohen's version was amazing as well
*_John Mayer - Slow Dancing In a Burning Room_*

Anyone ?
Yasssssss
@@wenceslaussamuel7032 Noiiiis. I wonder why Tyler himself didn't choose it since he's a giant Mayer fan.
Nope
I came here to say this, but in my heart I knew it had already been said
@@brentonchattin Yeah man but good to know xD
Beautifully played
I like how you always have the right tone for every song
20 dislikes? You don't really care for music do you?
Yass
No not really
That made me giggle
Hallelujah...
I see what you did here
Smashed the like button due to the mad respect for Jeff Buckley
Must say the added little extras moving chords up the frets made this sound great
I think the progression from Covered in Rain by John Mayer is probably the most beautiful set of chords I've ever heard. Only two chords throughout the whole song, and it just pours out so much emotion. Would love to see you do a video on it sometime!
Hey Tyler
Don't make it bad
Take a beautiful chord progression
And make it better
Beepbeep Lettuce 😂😂. Nicely done.
@@chi3knees thanks ;)
That was Beatlefully executed
I instantly thought of "rain song". But there are many others.
Edit: I realize the alternate open g tuning has a lot to do with it.
Nice vid, Tyler - thoroughly enjoyed spending the time. 👍
Berkley taught you to be an incredible musician. I love every video. I had friend that went to Berkeley out of high school. He became a master at guitar as well. I sure wish I had followed.
Do a video on the cord progression in Nutshell by Alice In Chains. That's the most beautiful progression I've ever heard.
What about I Stay Away?
What about the whole jar of flies album?
From one Alice fan to another, I love all of you
Such a simple chord progression, Em7,G,D C, yet the way its played and the little intricacies of taking your finger off the 2nd fret of the A string and hammering back on while playing that C just makes it.(If you dont understand what I mean by taking off and hammering back on watch someone play it you'll see)
Also the bassline for that song is amazing as well. Shit everything about that song is amazing, Laynes Singing, Jerry Cantrells Guitar playing and solo on it, Mike Starrs bassline(Mike inez joined a little later). Everything. Especially the Unplugged version. Man I think I'm gonna go watch that set now😂
Jar of Flies is a goddamn masterpiece. Don't Follow is my personal favorite but literally every song on JoF is perfect.
I thought that the perfect chord progression was Baby by Justin Bieber..... Well I guess I was wrong
Beautiful guitar you have sir. Of those Ive seen you hold, the blue one is my favorite.
I play keys and watch all your stuff...I love perspectives of theory from musicians in instruments I don't play. It's fun and challenging to incorporate into my own playing.
Little Wing by Hendrix
The Rain Song by Zeppelin (already mentioned but bares repeating)
The outro of Sir Psycho Sexy by Chili Peppers
Life On Mars by Bowie
The best progression is clearly Blackbird (Beatles) come on guys
Yessss I forgot about that one
Love your guitar 😊👍
Awesome lesson-thanks!
Jeff Buckley is not as remembered as he he should be. Thank you for mentioning him
Iove Jeff Buckley but the song was made by Leonard Cohen and you should acknowledge that lol
True but Buckley took it over. Sort of like "All Along the Watchtower" that that other guy wrote (his name I can't remember right now) but Hendrix adopted & made famous. Hendrix's version is sublime. Just like Buckley's version captures the pain & longing much more profoundly than Cohen. Just a matter of opinion. Respect.
@@gabrieljohannson6777 I dont agree with that logic especially since if you ask most people, they have no idea who Jeff Buckley is because he died so early on in his career. His wording makes it sound like he wrote it and he didnt . Leonard Cohen is hands down one of the best song writers of all time a d he should have specified that Jeff's version is a cover.
Gabriel Johannson “that other guy”-you mean that obscure artist Bob Dylan? LOL
@@gabrieljohannson6777 yeah the other guy who won a Nobel prize...yeah
@@gabrieljohannson6777It may be true the Buckley's version is more accessible to the average listener than the Leonard Cohen version but by the time Buckley got around to doing this song, it was already widely known by other artists and recognized as a great song for them to do, not to mention the fact it went nowhere when Buckley originally released his version. This Leonard Cohen song is why we remember Jeff Buckley. A hallmark of a great songwriter is how many other artists of note cover their work. Hallelujah has been covered by around two hundred different artists. I just went looking through Jeff Buckley's discography and couldn't find anybody of note who's ever recorded one of his songs. In fact, the only way we know about Jeff Buckley's version is because it's on the soundtrack of the movie Shrek.
I particularly like how the lyrics literally walk you through the chord changes
'It goes like this - the 4th, the 5th.
The minor fall, the major lift'.
That is the most amazing tone
Oh come on admit it. The first time you heard "Hallelujah" was in the Shrek movie.
No credit to Leonard Cohen, who wrote the song?
Hallelujah was in Shrek?
Everyone always references it to Shrek but I have never known it from that
I need to admit I am disappointed you didn't mention Leonard Cohen wrote the song. It was popular before Jeff performed it - though his version is magical.
It was kinda popular but buckley blew it out of the water
That was pretty amazing!
Edwin McCain - I’ll Be. That bar chord B with left open b and lower e string is so sweet to hear.
If it pleases The Lord, who am I to argue?
Best chord progression is the middle part of Paranoid Android
Honestly, for me, the base chords sound the best. The simplicity is part of the beauty.
Man that was a sick clean tone!
Beautiful progression but not awesome as the secret chord that David played and please the lord.
Ps
I'm Italian so I pronunce 'Capo'
Yeah you pronounce it capo
That's peculiar, I call it a capo like everyone else.
I thought it was pronounced capo
Isn’t it pronounced “capo”?
@@NH-tn8mo nah man it's actually capo
It’s pronounced “cap o” short for “capodastra” or some say “capodastro” and some say “capodastre”. Not pronounced “cape o”.
The more you know
Pfff.. Next!
I love how he explains every step of the way
Very beautiful.
Not resolving the progression after 3:03 made me feel all uncomfortable.
nahh, for me, the most beautiful chord progression is The Rain Song
Try Jason Becker's rain
Great job! This song is pure bliss on an acoustic! Can we see some more acoustic please?
I always wanted to play the guitar, and now I can, thanks to you
Best chord progression "Canon in D - Pachelbel"
I love this song, but I think Metallica’s One is better.
One is nothing compared to this song. At all.
Love your vids and playing, damn, wish I could play like you. 😫
Ok I just learned the C cord. I found this vid the most expiring thing I have ever heard. Thank you. So very much. Just turned on my amp. Practice Playing Now. God bless you. And I will get better. Thanks again. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻😎
Jeff who? This is Leonard Cohen's creation.
Well i guess thats why he says "it was made POPULAR by jeff buckley"
For me Hallelujah is Leonard Cohen's song. Doesn't matter how good the cover was
Thank you this is so helpful
Wicked Game. One of my fav progressions
Buckley version is overcooked, like some X Factor contestant howling at the moon. Writer Leonard Cohen's understated delivery is masterful. Accept no substitute.
How is Jeff’s version overcooked, or remotely analogous to an X Factor contestant? Jeff’s version is actually quite delicate, and subdued.
I love Jeff Buckley but on his way to being the best musician ever? Over Hendrix or Beethoven? Nah
He said maybe. Its subjective
Beethoven didn’t sing, and Hendrix’s voice was mediocre. Jeff Buckley is arguably the greatest singer of all time, and his guitar proficiency was arguably even better. I don’t think Tyler was off with his statement. Jeff probably was the most well-rounded musician of all time.
that was actually amazing!! thank you sir!
That tone though!!!
