+mikedawesofficial we're really looking forward to welcoming you back to Wells!
You are fantastic, I don't think people realise how difficult that really is to do. Amazing musicality.
dude you are Brilliant!!!!
It's amazing.

My guitar doesn’t do that
you need to buy the expansion pack for it to be able to do this.
when you buy a guitar dont forget to buy the season pass!!
59.99 dollar dlc
It's you who can't do that, not the guitar
Jk love you
You need that new Mike Dawes DLC, bro
The chair looks like a giant paperclip
Hahaja
Cannot unsee
This is why I read the comments
Totally
I tought it was a trumpet
The fact he was playing all that while speaking to the audience at the same time.... none musicians might not appreciate how impressive and difficult that is
you know non musicians aren't idiots, right?
@@Dllrisin No, they definitely are.
Heeeey, why didn't he sing both parts on top of everything else?🥰
@dzello 100% 😂 "and drake don't even need autotune" head ass
Yes rlly
FIRST he plays the bass notes.. then adds hammer-ons... adds the drum beat... adds harmonics... tells a joke... plays the melody.. does a backflip... plays with no hands.. juggles a couple of flaming bowling pins, fires himself out of a cannon... and still manages to keep the rhythm.
Bro ...🗿 U forgot when he caught a falling plane how dare you
You all forgot how he defeated the camera man and outran time itself, and even scared Scrat from the ice age. How dare YOU.
Simples 🤷♂️
He also filmed himself while doing all this.
🤣
Thoughts of a non guitarist:- demn I should start playing guitar
Thoughts of a guitarist :- I should stop playing guitar
Can relate
D a m my feelings man
@@Nechayev_ D Am my feelings

Yea I busted out loud on that.
I just put people like this out of my head. Not every guitar player is a prodigy. I'll never be Hendrix.... or this guy either.
I'l stick with Eddie as a goal. This makes Eddie look easy.
After years of finding excuses, this finally motivated me to pick up my guitar and sell it.
@HouseGurke: Re your "After years of finding excuses..."
Priceless!
You've motivated me to get off YT!
Haha love the plot twist
I already sold mine haha!!
Best comment ever!
Well played sir, well played!
Hahahaha
This has to be one of the most beautiful pieces of music I’ve ever heard.
We’ll yeah, when played like that! 🤩🙄 lol
How sad for you.
@@mikealext What's up your ass?
@@mikealext or maybe he just has a different taste im sure the music you listen to is garbage to other people as well
@@champion1388 why are you whiteknighting a complete stranger? Is your life that empty?
Is it just me or are there really more, absolutely incredible guitarists in the world than ever before?
Maybe it is because you can see them on the web now, while in former times you would never meet most of them and therefore they could not persuade you that they can play pretty well.
I was actually compelled to turn towards my guitar and apologize to it for being owned by me.
Serkan Değerli BAHaaHaHaHa
Jajaja
I defintly need to apologize to my Guitars... They never really experience enough, but the Rythm
Lol
😂🙌
He's so good that the guitar has to smoke a cigarette when he's done.
kwantsu dudes 😂💀😂
LOL
LOL
Gold!
Best comment needs more likes.
This is one of them “I bought the whole guitar, I’m playing the whole guitar” videos… and nailed it too. I’m very glad he played the whole thing for us all to enjoy! Much love and keep on jammin!
This guy literally having a conversation while simulating 3 instruments at once. I can barely play just a lead guitar part. For any non-musicians out there, this isn't exactly easy. Not the most impossible thing in the world, but definitely not easy.
For all the beginners out there this song is cool for warming up
Yes I too warm up with this and smoke on the water in the wrong key.
I usually solve calculus equations in my head while also talking to my grandma on the phone while playing this. Only then do I feel luke-warm
@@amisfitpuivk not the Mike dawes version but the usual original one is good for warmup actually. Nobody but a demi god can pull this off. I'd get carpal tunnel just from the positions your thumb had to go into.
Yeah good, but not with this technique lmao
Come on dude
now my guitar is somebody that i used to know
This is one of the funniest RUclips comments sections ever and you have the funniest comment in this section. Damn. That made me laugh.
Farhan sapli underrated
😂🤣😂
Bruh thats an underrated comment lol
Lmao
Every once in a while I come back to this video and be in awe of how amazing this rendition truly is. I try not to listen too often so I can be amazed like the first time, many years ago.
No loops just pure talent wooooow
He played that guitar like my ex played me 😭
That got dark quickly
bruh
@@MuLT1G4M3 very well apparently
So you mean, beautifully?
With absolute finesse?

Lol. Perfect!
I want to like this comment but it is 666!
Lol good one
@@arwahsapi I like comments when their a 666
Best comment ever! ;-)
I love to watch these great musicians that are not famous or glamorous. It shows just how many great musicians are never discovered. Becoming a famous musician is so often like hitting the lottery. I hope they realize that. It will keep them humble.
I'm unaware of having ever watched anyone play the strings _above_ the fretboard as part of a song. Just beautiful!
Walk Off The Earth does a cover of this same song, in which they play in the "forbidden zone," above the fretboard. That video went viral and is commonly know as "5 people 1 guitar."
Watch Rory Gallagher shadow play. It's mental.
Check out John Mayer’s solo on the live version (“where the light is” concert) of “Gravity”…… Plays a harmonic then physically bends the strings between the fret board and tuning pegs! 😳🤌👌🏽 Sends my Dog into a howling “harmony” every time without fail! 🤣🤷♂️🫶🏼😎🦮🐶🐾🦴
@@ethanvai1873 the plinky noise!
Check out Tommy Emmanuel for such tricks.
When his fingers went 👈🖕👉👆👇☝️✌👆🤙👎✌🖕👇👆🤞🖖 i felt that
Mwahahahahahahhahahahahahaaaaaaaaqq
Mwahahahahaaa
CozierPaladin 95 ahaha well said bro
Hahahahahahahha
He secretly just did that to flip us off two times 😂
My guitar just watched this. Now his bags are packed. He's going to a better place.
Well, I gues at this moment your guitar is somebody that you used to know
@@maciejgardzinski3272 Yeah but what upset me was the way he did it; he made out like it never happened and that we were nothing.
It just felt, so... rough, I guess.
i watched this with my guitar and it asked me why i couldn't finger it as good as this man
lucky underated comment
Its been months. My guitars havent been back yet 😫
My dad’s a musician and song writer. When I was seventeen my folks asked me what I wanted to do with myself and I said “music obviously”. They warmed me that music was quite hard and you had to have a certain personality type to get it done. So you might want to find yourself a back up they said. I’m now 32 with two degrees behind me and close to £100,000 student debt and I work as a therapist on the stroke wards - and I love it!
But this feels like what might have happened if I said “na I don’t care if it’s hard, let’s have it!”
Never too late though.
This is some of the sickest guitar skills I've ever seen!
I was like wow that's a big paperclip. Then I realized it's a stool.
This video has some of the best comments on yt
@Koka Kola Nation Are you still bored?
👏👏👏
😂
That's a chair
No, this is Patrick!
It's scary to think that this is 0.001% of his power...
Ye uses 0.001% effort to play this, the world cant handle UI mode
? Wtf should it
Επαγγελματιας Γκρινιαρης If ya’ll don’t get the joke he/she is saying the man looks like shaggy HAHAHAHA
You fools.. he's only on level 0.001% we're doomed I tell you.. doomed!
You're missing 3 more zeros
Stayed in Wells two nights ago and hummed this tune all evening as my wife and I wandered around the city.
6 years later, still holds up!
Crazy that he puts it all together while having casual conversation at the same time. If I lose focus for .2 seconds everything goes to hell.
Muscle memory built by many years of daily practice.
He focuses Better than Sheldon Cooper
So true! lmao

That’s flow state.

comment section: 11/10
Just before I read your comment I said to myself, "Lotta clever comments." Ha
gr8guitarplayer same here!
Thus coz u idiots guys no offense
Glad I accidentally found this, tremendous talent. How is it possible only 200k likes and almost 12 million views? Tough audience!
Or we’ve all been watching it over and pver
Too stunned and busy being in awe to do anything as mundane as clicking a like button.
Many people don't have accounts, just consider the fact it has 12 million views as very impressive. That's a big, big audience. Bigger than any stadium in the world.
Had the pleasure of meeting and seeing Mike Dawes play in NYC. This man gives fresh new perspectives and hope for guitar music and guitarists to have chances to shine musically and artistically.
I'm always amazed when people can hold a conversation/sing while simultaneously playing complex riffs.
I was very much thinking the same.
John Mayer ✨
True, although I believe it must be like driving a car, or a bicycle, and such. This guy probably played this one song hundreds of times, so he can play it kind of in autopilot.
@@MaximC You are right. No virtuoso was born as such. Practise, practise, practise. And once you've finished practising, practise some more.
They've just gotten it down to muscle memory at that point, not even really having to think about it. Lots of hard work and dedication.
*This is only 2% of Shaggy's power*
Btw this has 147 likes.
Underrated.😂
Facts👍
This is a meme i used to know
0.0001% you mean
Wow what talent. He plays bass drums guitar , melody, and talks at the same time. Crazy!
Simply the greatest piece of guitar I have seen. This is superb on every level.
my guitar watches this when I go to bed.
😘
Ahhaaha
Since you won't finger it , it has to finger itself.
😂😂😂
@@jackcr3909 classic 🥳😅😂😂
I used to play guitar. I stopped about 5 minutes ago
So many negative comments from folks who feel inferior to Mikes' playing, he's just another guitarist studying, practising and being himself. Stop comparing yourselves and play your style, it's all relevant. Don't beat yourselves up, in the words of Frank Zappa " Shut up and play your guitar". Peace.
Just a we lil bit o humorous sarcasm I presume! I also quit...haha ;)
@Glynn Anthony whoosshh
Somebody that you used to know xD
@@phlobleg it's called humor
I'm not quite sure I was expecting that. Unique!
I (along with 12Million+ other listeners) am simply amazed at your talent.
Why do all acoustic guitarist look like they died for our sins.
Bruhhh... 🤣
MobiusStrip001 lmfaoo
Now, this comment doesn't make much sense but it sure is funny!
Nah dude, that's Shaggy from Scooby Doo.
Spend the time it takes to get this good and you dont have time left for a haircut lol
The way he kept the thing going at a perfect rhythm while talking and making jokes, this man can multitask
Multicore rendering.
Yes..... And he's not a woman
@@darylcadman2863 long luscious hair tho maybe that’s the key
Holy snaps yes that was brilliant! I can only note read music, and if anything remotely breaks my concentration on where I am on the page with reading notes it's a complete catastrophe. There's no way I would be able to talk and play at the same time.
It's called a loop pedal. You can buy one for like 70 bucks.
every couple years i come back to this performance, dude is a beast
I just did not want it to end. Truly awesome.
“anyway, here’s wonderwall”
Classic

I've been playing for 50yrs. Holy S. I'm was looking to find a replacement for my 99 K20c, that my wife must have hated, because the 99 didn't deserve to be STOMPED ON by her. I saw this, HOLY S. Very nice indeed. Still loved the k20c, but that eased up the pain a bit. Peace everybody.
The harmonics are beautiful! You made a simple pop song into a polyphonic virtuoso display.
Yea what he said ^ a polypopsicle virtualosolo doopslay
Blown away
everyone give a warm welcome to our next performer, Timmy on the triangle!
Yeah, nice.
Timmy is a beast!
*ting*
*Timmy plays bassline, guitar, drum, and melody simultaneously on triangle*
Naeda on the cow bell and we all need more!!🇨🇦✌
The band: no one shows up
This guy: fine I'll do it myself
Lol hilarious! 🤣
6 strings of infinity
And any guy who can strumm and actually has vocals developed will outshine him 10 to 1. Not only taking any and all women home (except maybe the ONE music nerd that is never there), but also leaving a far better impression behind. Not to mention: soloing is not that impressive. Playing WITH many people (band) sharing ideas is way more difficult and rewarding. But sure, choose tapping over a real drummer ... lol, shows your introvert nature even more.
Mark Frinch stop being weird man bro please. he was only joking no need to pick apart his deep insecurities and shortcomings
@@markfrinch7865 go cry in the corner.. No one cares what your small brain thinks, this was awesome... Anyone can play like a band but to do all solo?? Damn that's another level.. Bet he can play anything you throw at him too
He uses every sound the instrument is capable of, and then more! 😮…brilliant
I had no Idea all that music was coming from one instrument.
Whoa!!!
Unbelievable!!!
But I Believe!!
Anyway, here's wonderwall
randymoss7908 best comment mate 😂😂😂
wow!
Ha ha. Brilliant.
🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😭😭😭😭
😂😂
Jesus.
As a guitar player I’m going to pretend I never saw this so I can still call myself one
Same here dude, same here.
Don't worry, what he does is not playing guitar anymore, he's a one man band
Aka fingerstyle
Yeah, same here.
@alp 53 is that a drax the destroyer reference from Avengers infinity war? "He is not a dude, you are a dude. This..this is a man"
As a drummer... every time I get the thought in my head that I can play guitar I watch a video like this and realize I should just stick to what I know.
'Stick' to it. I see what you did there.
His guitar playing is mesmerizing
My guitar just threw me away
:-D Lololololol i think i'm going to get the boot too haha
now you’re just somebody that it used to know
Hahahahaha
Lol LMFAO 😂😂
My Guitar left me for this guy
Turn to the Bass.
@@jeanlubin9878 exactly. They're just more loyal.
Lol
Mine did too
His guitar is kind of facepalming but it still loves him.
Amazing. Pure talent.
lol pure hard work😅
Wtf I just found this that’s pure talent . I could listen to him all day that man is a genius
It's all a clever sleight of hand trick everybody, look closer, he's an octopus
It's just some time a lot actually

c'mon dude
The CGI on this video is pretty good. It looked like a real human being doing clearly impossible things.
😂😂😂
Funny response. I saw Mike play this in a concert. He is really that good.
@@yrbadself No one's doubting it mate
Martin Genesius lmao.
Your comment wins!
That's why u teach. Love it
Ok, I'm down with the guy who said his guitar doesn't do that!
Honestly, I'm a big Mike Dawes fan even though I'm a traditional rhythm player and singer. This is simply a virtuoso performance by a tremendous talent.
Superb work, Sir! I salute your ingenuity, creativity, and hard work.
I can't say my name and play those 2 bass notes at the same time.
I hear ya...truely awesome...at least I can blink and and play at the same time, aaaand that's about it...lol
I tried to do it and it sounded like F-A-G
i tried it too.. evn i cudnt play and say gr8guitarplayer at the same time !!!!
@@shriibatsa5100 That's funny! Made me laugh, thanks.
Shaggy is really good at guitar
Steven M where’s Scooby Doo?
Unexpected work-place laugh here... Geez ;-)
Zoinks!!!🤣👍
He looks extra stoned
Shaggy?
Hands down some of the best guitar skills I have ever seen - incredible 😍
And my guitar gently weeps tears of shame
He’s doing 4 things at the same time.
1. Playing chords 2. Playing melody 3. Percussion 4. Flying hair from his left shoulder to his right constantly
Also Playing Bass and talking with Audience. Preparing for a video
He is also Breathing and Moving here and there and standing against the gravity
@@bidyutdatta5042 he's also travelling through the universe at high speeds
He is also singing at the same time.
his also smelling hearing feeling the air moleculas
"It's actually very very simple"
Proceeds to tune guitar out of standard tuning
Actually it's not that simple unless you have the ear for sound, the ear for music.. and not to mention years of experience.
@@jrussolubin8068 Yeah, that was kinda the joke
@@jrussolubin8068 oh my...
@@jrussolubin8068 nice joke, I have like 4 yrs of experience and I can't even do harmonics right😂😂
Simple elements used to build complex patterns, which is better than using complicated elements without delivering on complexity
NGL this is incredible. I wish I had the dedication, patience and skill to learn and perform this. Imagine seeing someone doing all their party tricks on someone's acoustic and you wait your turn and drop this. A lifetime of adoration from random strangers 😂
His fingers and thumbs are multitasking.
"Very very simple"
- No standard tuning - Check
- Tapping - Check
- Sweeps - Check
- Multilayered hammer-ons - Check
Ok got it
+Percussive technics
This God damn near killed me 😂
it's not easy but it's simple
Hehe
ruclips.net/video/QVvWSWW459o/видео.html
It's not just the number of things he's doing, it's the clarity with which he manages to pick each note.
YES, I was wondering if he ever mutes strings by accident.
This guy gets it. Go Mike. You have a supporter going forward. This is tight.
He has an incredible amount of things going on here. It would be quite the brain exercise to play this song this way.
I'm going to pretend I never saw this... And continue playing like a pro while I live in happily denial....
KaysianReigns loool i died laughing XD, but really i think you're as good as your joke here Bro
this comment made my day!!!!!! hahahahahahahaha
KaysianReigns It's all about getting yer techniques together. I am certain ye will accomplish if ye diligently and mindfully practise.
THIS!!!!
Looking over at my Cordoba - WHY YOU NO SOUND LIKE THAT!!
He forgot to mention you have to graduate from Hogwarts to pick notes with your third eye.
shaun HAHAHAHAHAH 😂😂
Those Harmonics are dreamy
Incredibly talented, one man band!
This is like Stephen Hawking giving a theoretical physics lesson disproving your existence
he was one crunchy vegetable
He actually disproved the existence of my guitar skills
To kindergarteners
-What instrument can you play: guitar, bass or drums?
-Yes
Fantastic! What superb playing! Wish I could do this !
this guy is the best ever, his JUMP cover is complete insane
The money i would've spent on a guitar, will now be spent on speakers to hear this even better.
I just threw my guitar away.
JamCave Studio You too !? 🤤
My guitar looked at me and somehow I ended up in the trash can 😂🍻
gratch gratch hahaha 😂
JamCave Studio I laughed hard& long!
You should totally avoid looking up Andy McKee then...
Out of this world
The control, focus and delicacy to do this is unfathomable.
i thought i played Guitar... i now realise i make noise.
But to the deaf, you are God.
Right bro we make noise
That's a good one. Lmao
🤣i love your comment!!!! 🤣
Have fun and we will love your noise cause it will be a joyful noise, haha. You are blessed to be able to play. My brain won't let
me.
I'm a guitarist and have been for 20 years. What this guy does with the guitar is otherworldly and thoroughly amazing. Most guitarists never get to be a fraction of this talented, nor do they neccessary need to be.
I'm sure he's talented, but his dedication must be tremendous too, and that's very much admirable.
Check out Andy McKee. A stellar guitarist in this guys same style that I’ve followed for years.
@@falkortechnologies8039 thanks! Always up for new music!
August West happy to share!
He has the ability to listen to something, play it in his head and replay the notes as he remembers the sound of the strings. He remembers what string makes what sound. He’s not playing the guitar, he’s pouring out emotions on it after reading it like a book he memorized. It’s amazing
This man has the gift
He’s amzing man just over the top at the end
He must have smoked out of the bong of destiny
Can he pass? 😂😂
"It's actually very very simple."
Me: *Visible confusion*
*Proceeds to take guitar out of standard tuning and tune it by ear*
@@lovely8434 built in tuner in the guitar lol
Walk off the Earth applauds you . . . sincerely - and unanimously.
The whole delivery was incredible! Well done!
Holy freakin smokes. That was amazing. This guy's a guitortionist. He's all over that instrument. Like a hunter that doesn't waste any part of the animal. The most memorable, true artists, are in back pages. In a way, that's it's own treat
His strap is one aspect I think is key...
This guy is great, reminds me of Tommy Emmanuel's song, Initiation.
Edit: typed this up before the algorithm sent me to their collaboration video...
"Guitortionist" was a beautiful touch. Chef kiss! 💋🤌
Comments like these are in back pages.
I'm a Guibutcher
Remember back in the day when we were all impressed that it look five people to play this song on one guitar?
How mankind has evolved.....
But that clinky noise!!
