That solo feels like walking into a room and forgetting what you wanted to do there
Goddamn this got me
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Accurate asf🤣
haha.... ha.....ha....... hahaha.... ha........HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
This one hit differently😂😂
Sounded exactly like when you're losing at Guitar Hero.
Ah, string snap!
I love you 😂😂
NAILED IT! HAHAHAHAHA!!!
🤣🤣🤣
Probably the BEST comment!!
🤣🤣🤣

#Everydaystrangers
He didn't just change keys, he changed the whole lock
and forgot where he put the key!
lmao
LOL
Wtf
Wow what the fuck thats the first time i heard that
He forgot the golden rule " when you dont know shit about guitar improvisation, you go to the minor pentatonic and never leave it "
seriously
Absolutely. As a shitty bedroom player myself I just stick to that😂
Amen brother
Yep
This is the most factual thing I’ve ever read!!
The fact that she says: Nick Jonas everybody!! Make this even cringier
Agreed, you wonderfully named person. Agreed.
@@MorbidGuardian holy holy, HAHAJA
Wonderful name you too, wonderful named person
Here to fuck things up, Nick Jonas everybody!
@@davidb.1610 Josh battle: the sequel
As a guitar player, it physically hurt me when he missed that note and choked.
Haha😂😂 that solo was as bad as the pixal quality of my guitar videos on youtube
He obviously sucks, that's why you need to study your instrument and learn to improvise, so whenever you choke on stage you can play some cool licks and save the day.
missed that note😂 you're kidding right, whole thing was trash.
Yo beyach happenns to us all
Leave nick alone he played at my bar mitzva
This dude has had a guitar in his hands for years since he was little. Shit I wasn't expecting Hendrix but at least something more than that
Yeah exactly I thought the beginning was decent but then the rest was absolutely terrible
I don't think he's bad, I think he just choked hard. It happens lol
@therunawaykid6523 whole thing was trash
i would think he’d improvise something since he forgot what he wanted to do
He’s like most of us, a pro when practicing but when it’s a live performance you mess up so bad that they think you know nothing about guitar
I thought the first solo was the one he did and I was like “wtf that’s actually mega good.” Then I remembered the title of the video and my ears got blessed with the reality version
it's extremely obvious that he wasn't playing that first solo lmao
Nick lacked scales, which takes years of practice and dedication.
0:07 me playing guitar by myself
0:43 me playing in front of people
Glad I'm not the only one
@CherryChika haha
@CherryChika 😂😂😂
Nah this is too damn true
True af
If you ever hit a note like that performing live, BEND. Just bend, you're never more than a half step away from a good note. The bend will also give you some time to plan your next move.
If the bend doesn't fix it, just bend harder and harder til the string snaps, hopefully taking your eye out so you can leave the stage.
The last sentence Inspired me
Hey I’ve been trying to pick up guitar over quarantine so I’m new at this. Bending is the thing where you like slide the strings up and down, right?
You are a real Guitar Hero
Ian Lerner I’m pre sure it’s when u bend the actual string, so you’ll usually bend it down
@@Eli-rq8et Bending means bending the string across the fret. For strings at the bottom, you'll want to bend them up, for strings near the top, you'll want to bend them down. Takes some practice to do it neatly without disturbing the other strings. Just look up string bending tutorials on RUclips, and you'll move on to vibrato before you know it.
Just goes to show - You don't practice until you get it right....You practice until you can't get it wrong
So true... Perfectly said!
the fact that his hand movements match what is being played makes this even more legendary
No
The second one is the bad one the first one is the better one the video uploader RoyZiv made lol
It becomes more noticeable once the fast notes come in.
It's like mid solo he thought beginner mode was too easy and immediately switched it to expert.
Accurate 😂😂
Exactly
@yeahSOwhat HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA OMG HAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAH
And then jazz
And forgot he’s not an expert so he failed
Well at least he was really playing the guitar not faking it
林辰斯 but he wasn’t playing the guitar... it’s like me saying I can speak Chinese
Thebluefus 😂😂😂
林辰斯 I’d prefer hearing the pre recorded solo instead of this butchered piece of musical trash
Yeah true, alteast this guy had the balls to try it live
Lennon- McCartney hearing him fuck up is more entertaining tho tbh
Nick's solo is so much better, because 90% of us repeat the 2nd solo more than twice, and 70% of us came back to listen to the 2nd solo.
i’m doing my math
They say you’re always a half step away from a good note. It’s definitely true for Nick Jonas.
The actual solo wasn't too bad in the beginning... but then he forgot he ain't john mayer and tried to improvise and... well... yea...
Nick never learned his pentatonic scales 😂
ralelunar for real tho...its kinda Easy to improvise on a basic level if u learn the pentatonic scale. Nothing flashy or extravaganza but it will get you by
@@97Andras True. I can make decent solos that sound alright with the pentatonic! But nothing too special.
John Mayer is just a pop artist? Have you lost your mind? Please do yourself a favor and listen to his actual music and not “your body is a wonderland “. Jesus Christ.
btm wtfb I’m sorry to say...You’re an absolute idiot. John Mayer is one of the legends of music. Not just some pop star...
best part was how he jumped off like he killed it or something LOL
It's called saving face, haha!
My high school music teacher used to always say "Better to be strong and wrong than right and light"
C Delany lmao preach
He did kill it, in some sense, lol
He did kill the solo, I mean there the solo was, he tried playing, it died.
He reminds me of my practice days when I have about 5 seconds of successfully coherent notes and I suddenly start thinking I’m Steve Vai, start overdoing the vibrato, the slides, and just like that, in 2 seconds, I forget which note I’m meant to play because I was too busy appreciating my awesome one vibrato note.
Her: “you’re never gonna be a man, Peter Pan”
Nick Jonas: “and I took that personally”
lmao
The best solos make you FEEL something and I'd argue this one explores feelings a lot of top guitarists rarely achieve! Awkward, uncomfortable and embarrassed.
About as much feeling as a bowel movement.
@@frankfuentes5659 Literally on the toilet experiencing severe stomach pain as I’m reading this. I’d still rather experience this than listen to another nanosecond of Nick Jonas on the guitar.
I laughed way too hard at this
lmao
This is one of the best and funniest comments ever!!! Very clever Silly Skeleton!
This is the first I've heard of the infamous Nick Jonas solo attempt, so I didn't fully understand the expectation vs. reality thing at first. In the first clip, I was thinking, "damn, Nick can really play".
Mike Shalman lol same, I was like he isn’t even bad
But he actually can, he just fucked up that one time.
Nah i saw his fingers weren't matching with what i was hearing
Same but I figured it out near the end when his fingers barely moved lol
I thought this was the guitar solo equivalent of a lip sync the first time I saw it 😂
An absolute classic RUclips video. Deserves to be in everyone's playlist always!
true
Part of playing lead guitar is learning how to style it out when you fuck up. I usually just stop what I’m doing and play smoke on the water to get some momentum going
Gonna tell my kids this was Joe Satriani
The comment section 😍
hahahaha
Eduardo Páez “But daddy, that man had hair.”
A-ha2n I agree with you please don’t
Don't
the sad thing is there was probably a ton of people in the audience that thought this was good...
Logan Anderson yep. Kind’ve pathetic. While a session guy could’ve done it and gotten paid. Nick ruined it and got paid way more. He’s not good. Practice instead of dating so much and maybe focus on ur career Nick.
They more than likely admire LIL Wayne shredding,Nick Jonas is a douchebag! Give him props for some of the pussy he has gotten!
They probably should've hired Steve Vai to do the solo instead.
The expectation was good tho,lol
Elijah Kelley Definitely should've hired Steve Vai, it should be illegal to see that guy more than two feet away from a guitar.
i love the ghost fretted notes!
How long has it been? After a long sad rainy day I can still look up this solo and make the stress go away… this is top notch entertainment
Saddest part is the studio musician who was never asked to be part of the performance.
It's a bunch of one-shot players who record nearly all studio album solos for pop music and such. It costs less than actually learning to play solos. It's an actual fact. Learned that in music schools :). They can record the whole album in one day. Those guys have like literally 15k albums recordings each under their belts haha
Don't worry.. They made lot of money for that solo
"Nick Jonas everybody!" just makes it even more cringy.
IKR she announced that like fuckin Prince came on the stage lol it’s just Nick Jonas who gives an actual fuck
@@saiyanleague653 Prince could actually play about 24 musical Instruments and Nick Jonas can't even play 1
Nick can play the bass, drums, violin, guitar, and piano
@@musicmixesmore3049 do you see the video?
You're right, but it's sad you're a grown ass man who uses the word "cringy".
What an incredible talent. He really deserves all the fame and fortune he's gotten.
As a music,specifically songwriter/guitar player, I respect how he just went with it and improvised. It can be hard to do alone in a bedroom,even more so in front of a huge nationally televised crowd. Respect!!!!!
Mom can I get a shredder
We have a shredder at home
Shredder at home:
😂😂😂
LOL! This comment made me laugh sooo hard, thank you! X-))
💀💀💀
LMFAO. You're a legend for that
I watch this video once in a while to increase my cringe immunity
Your profile picture and user name tells me that you're a man of culture.
No-one is immune to the cring.
Just don’t overdose on the antibodies
I watched this so many times that the solo sounds good honestly
i didnt realize this video belongs to royziv until today. i watched this video several times and loughed in past. Also been attending to couple of royziv courses. Expectations part now makes sense
Sounded like when Marty McFly started phasing out of existence
HAHAHAHA
hahaha
Lol
Maybe we’re just not ready for it yet. Our kids will probably love it though.
Hahahahhahaha
the brilliance i dont think enough people are seeing with this video is that roy wrote a solo that really did look like it was being played by nick if you pay attention to his left hand
I noticed it the first time I saw the video.
Quasi Zappy i dont even play guitar and i noticed it
i've got 47 chromosomes and i noticed it
barely brilliant
damn that escalated
He doesn’t deserve that telecaster
Lets see you do it.
Roger Bird i think he can do it better than nick jonas can😂😂 nick jonas is ass at guitar
OneBoy OneGame exactly what I was thinking.
Roger Bird haha you know you can beat this guy while playing the pentatonic scale right, with 6 notes
Roger Bird well he is probably an actual guitarist considering how offended he was so I say he would crush it
What worries me is that I have listened so many times that solo that it works in my head and doesn't sound bad
The improv solo in my head vs. what I actually play during rehearsal
All jokes aside , can we all appreciate the expectation solo? IT was AWESOME in my honest opinion!
yess insane
Yeah it wasn't too bad
Excellent tone too
Well nobody complain about the "expectation" solo
It was trash
you just don't understand jazz
samuraiguitarist!!!
Joaquín Garrido so you like jazz? 🐝😎
Patrick Interiano hmm mayBEE
Was that JAZZ???
Joaquín Garrido you on drugs boy?
dude nailed most of the solo, only lost it near the end, good job to him for putting in the effort, way better than lil wayne
0:40 This isn't so bad.
0:48 Dafuq?
Reminded me of Towelie from South Park
Same reaction here. It started ok, even if simplistic... Then he turned into that guy at your local guitar centre who tries out the guitars but never buys anything.
MyboiJAEGER lol
I’m literally crying that is hilarious
Justin Hudson beep bop boop beep
I love how Roy added all the shredding when Nick's back was to the camera
man, I thought the first one was a doctored "live" tv version and the second was a live at the awards version...fooled me. Nice Solo Roy!
Never gets old
He doesnt deserve that tele.
Someone get him a Squier Strat, make him learn like the rest of us did.
Every begginer should have the best guitars, sad
The classic vibes series Strats and Teles are good guitars tho 👀
I learned on a cracked Epiphone SG.
Don’t gatekeep music, man. No one deserves anything, just let the man have his stuff
@@christopheranaya2850 Agreed. We'd all have expensive gear at any level if the money wasn't a big deal.
leather jacket
Carl G2431
I know right?? This Nick Jonas is a fucking clown, lmao
Side like rocker stance😂😂😂😂😂
Ohhh nick, i know who you are..
You should never play guitar...
JAJAJAJAJAJAJA
If you're gonna fail might as well do it in style
100% in tune, i need some classes from this man. much love from india
I clearly remember this and never realised that it was you who made this since then!!! hahahahaha
Man, after all these years, I found you killing those pop songs and as being as a 20+ year of guitar player you bacame one of very few who immediately got me!
Expectation solo just amazing!
What you posers don't realize is that Nick Jones channeled the punk rock ethos of Kurt Cobain and trolled these corporate shills with an amazing anti solo. That's real rock n roll right there folks.
Lmaoooooooo this made my day! Hahaha
This comment is gold.
LMAO!!! The way that was so brilliantly said is what makes it so hilarious!!! Well that and the fact that it's Nick Jonas.
Anti solo lol 😂
ANTI SOLO FUCK LOLOLOLOL
Thank you for giving me confidence
Excellent job on the timber!!!
His solo started out strong but then turned to shit REAL fast
That's his problem, premature ejaculation.
No foreplay, he climaxed too quickly ;-)
@@lezzliea When Im a playing guitar solo live and I JIZZ IN MY PANTS
@@lezzliea Masturbation is actually a great analogy to describe guitar solos
Didn't find anything strong about that at all : /
Real fast to half assed.
Anyone notice how much the expectation solo synced up with the video?! The slides came at the exact moments.
Greatest solo of all time! Legend
I couldn't hear where he messed up, I was distracted by his side leg rocker stance
And let's not forget the leather jacket
Oh, did he play? I had all my focus on the leather jacket and when he did the side leg rocker stance... man I could not think straight!
That's some good sense of Stevie T right here
he fucked the key
Musicyard ikr
“Whats the problem this is good!”
“Oh its the before”
“oh”
Hey...anyone who has performed has had THAT MOMENT. Try playing in a band where myself, the bassist, and keys began a song in three different keys. Yep. Ill remember the bass player looking as if he had the runs.
Maybe it was jazz? Lol
Had a bassist change the key during my solo. Fuck that shit
Beautiful. My favourite part was at 0:58
lmao
Would still rather see someone screw up live than watch someone mime over a backing track
Rs
Well said!
Music is art, art isn't perfect, sure he messed up but he tried, respect to him and even though I care nothing for his style of music I agree 100% with your original point
True
Underrated comment.
at least he can play better than lil wayne... XD
Crazy Genius but lil Wayne is the master of 2 notes! He doesn't need anything more :)
Necro I'm worse just go to my channel it's ear rape
Anyone can play better than Lil Wayne xD
omg xDD
Less is more
Acabo de sacar el solo y nunca me sentí tan orgulloso
The way he palm mutes those ghost notes lmao. Like he planned to do that or something
If you ever feel bad that you absolutely SUCK at guitar, come here.
DogWhoRules that’s what I’m doing rn
Reassuring
@caprice.t a fucking dead bird is better
I heard better organized sound from a puppy barking when it's owner leaves the house.
Therapy 😂
The title should be “Playing by yourself VS Playing in front of your family”
jajajjajaajaja
Mayt the way you came in, just did summin to me man, felt SO RIGHT
0:46 What's wrong, Marty?
Are your parents disappearing again?
Edit: Fun Fact; I stole this comment from the original video several years ago. It had 7,000 likes before the video was taken down, for DMCA violations. The user I stole it from..
...was MEEEEEEEEEE. >:)
Holy shyt, well done sir! 👏 👏 👏
He is disappearing too !!
I’m so glad I wasn’t the only one that thought of this 😂
Holy molly! Underrated comment! I died! 🤣
Hahaha well done dude! 😂
OP your solo is so melodic and memorable that I had to visit this video everyday , and the fact that you improvise in according to Nick's finger movement is fascinating, kudos to you .
As a musician this is my biggest fear to get stage fright on a solo
Remember:
When you're playing live always play things off like you meant it to happen.
Bend, slide, hammer on, or whatever need be to resolve it.
You're playing live. No time to think what you should do next if you make a mistake.
I messed up my solo. So i came here to get some comfort
He played so fast all you heard were a few notes
The very last note being a half pitch off just absolutely kills me 😂
Nick Jonas's last part "tuo tut tut tui taow"
Was gold 😂❤
Fuck. I just can't get that first solo out of my head!!! It's so good! I've listened to this at LEAST 30 times today. Someone please make this into a full version of the song.
I agree, it's really good
Commenting so you remember about this vid and you are forced to listen to the solo another 30 times
I'm suing Nick Jonas for damage of telecasters and murdering my ears
Rip
Ha
“Nick Jonas, everybody!”
Bruh, she introduced him as if Kurt Cobain himself was walking out onto the stage 😂😂
Well, that solo did blew our minds away
Sorry 😭🙏🏻
Excellent 😄👍!
Those arpeggios made me moister than an oyster.
Evan Marshall arpeggios what arpeggios ???He played like an illiterate mute child!!!👎
@@chrisvargas5328 He meant the expectation solo, the one Roy wrote, not the one Nick played.
hahahhahaha stealing the money!!!
Real shit tho, he is stealing money from people who actually CAN play better than him
You know when you watch an immersive POV video of a skier taking an unexpected dive off a mountain and your stomach just drops? That's what I felt watching this.
Excellent!
I bet he was trying to read the notes from the teleprompter. 😂
The dude in the background playing guitar, he's way better and under paid
He must be cracking up at the back.
He was cringing for sure
Well I mean no ofense, but usually there’s a reason why one is the star and the other the background guitar player. It’s not all about skill.
@@aestheticinthemaking8579 well in the professional world of music it is about the skill. If he is to call himself a professional he should have skill. Would you go to someone with the skill to perform a surgery or someone who is just a bigshot and just looks like he can perform a surgery? It's his job and if he cannot do it properly he doesn't deserve it. That's how all jobs work.
@@aestheticinthemaking8579 though i have to agree with you nowadays to be a star it's not about skill anymore.
I feel much better now knowing that even such Guitar Gods can make mistakes. 👍🎸🍾
one of the most brilliant solos; youre an 80s player bro
You even fixed her vocals lol
Isn't that the actual studio song though?
that's the studio version
he clearly missed notes on guitar hero...
obviously I try to do "through the fire and flames" in expert mod and skipped the hamer on and pull off tutorial
the expectation solo was banging!
No but seriously, your solo was dope af
Are we all just quietly agreeing that these song lyrics are horrendous? You'll never be a man Peter pan? Oooooooook?
David Derifield LOL
LMAO
At least its better than "oh my heart is broken please come back babyyyyy yeah"
Isn’t the point of the song comparing some dude to Peter Pan to highlight how he refuses to be mature or reliable? I’m not super familiar, but it sounds like a good concept for a song?
@@josephcorridon9314 great idea, lame rhyme
0:46
One half step. That’s all you needed to play.
One half step
Just one
What a cool solo!
Stevie T's assessment of this is the best.
this is so good, the fact that your solo matches his hand position so it looks like he's actually playing it lmao
I mean, reality was pretty much my expectation for a Nick Jonas solo.
