What are some more licks people think sound hard but actually aren't?
One, metallica
Ain't talkin bout love
How about the solo on Extreme's 'Get The Funk Out?'
I think Green-Tinted Sixties Mind by Mr. Big could be on that list too. Like Eruption or Thunderstruck it's one of those cool-sounding licks, that actually require just some feel for the rhythm and the groove. If you manage to get your fingers synchronized, it is really not that hard but sounds and looks awesome!

I think what makes the free bird solo hard is that it's like 57 hours long
And half of it is insane bends
Yep. It's definitely an endurance solo.
Truth... My fingers were not ready to learn Freebird when I gave it a go. Took a lot of endurance exercise.
I wouldn't call it exactly easy just because of all the bending. Knowing what to play is not that hard, it's just the bending. And you can't play the solo convincingly it you don't keep up that endurance level of bending ALL the time. At least that's how it is for me.
Yeah, it's got very repetitive patterns and licks so it's relatively simple but it goes on for quite a while so it gets tiresome.
Eruption is actually difficult. The only part that is easy is the tapping section. Everything else takes practice. I finally nailed the full eruption solo today and I’ve never felt more accomplished.
The licks, not the solo.
and yet the tapping part is the only part that impresses non-players
The tapping part is still kinda tough though but still definitely the easiest part of the song
First thing on guitar I learned was the tapping part I skipped smoke on the water only reason because people kept telling me no that I couldn’t do it but here we ate I agree the tapping is easy just takes time to learn that speed and keep up with it but the whole solo noooo way not a peace of cake at all
@Coon Pooch k
yeah... easy... *cries in smoke on the water*
John Reiff sameeeee brooo
John Reiff Can I play these drop D barre chords?
sweet child of mine
lmao im just restarting playing guitar. all i can play is happy b day, smoke on the water n the riff for iron man by black sabbath lmfao. also i'm starting on a 12 string so this gonna be hard as fuck
😂😂😂
The Freebird solo isn't just one guitar. There's three going at it. That's what makes it spectacular. For people who are just learning, the last thing they wanna hear is " this is easy or it isn't hard " just show them how it's done and with practice it gets easier. But you are very good. Thanks for sharing.
I played Freebird in several bands throughout my time in local classic rock bands. By the time I was in my mid 20s (playing for 10 years) I learned all the licks, but developing the strength and stamina to play the entire solo by myself took several more years. By the time I was 35, I had several people approach me saying I played it better than anyone they’ve ever seen. I guess that means it took me 20 years to play it all the way through during a 3-1/2 hour set of 35+ songs. When I played in a band with a second guitar player, they always wanted to play some parts of it…until they heard me doing it right. Then they backed down and let me do it…so it must not be “easy”….lol
I thought the free bird solo was 2 guitars and they played the same exact thing.
@@expertarcher8542 Allen Collins starts and holds the solo in one piece. Steve Gains was the second guitarist and he starts playing later (if you listen, for example, to Live at the Fox Theater - Version 1976, you'll notice it at 7:48. OBS: not talking about this period in this video. Hope u understand). The third and final guitar for the solo is by Gary Rossington and basically he's doing the rhythm. It is worth remembering that in the studio version, Allen plays one guitar on top of the other.
@@marcoseduardodasilvabergam545 thank you for clarifying. I don’t know where I heard that it was only 2 guitars
@@expertarcher8542indeed three guitarist,
Allen Collins - starts and holds the solo
Steve Gaines - joins playing the solo later with Allen

When someone asks for Freebird, I say "Sure!" and then play "Sweet Home Alabama". A lot of times they don't notice the difference.
I saw "E" (Mark of the Eels) do that very thing opening for Tori Amos.
Lol
Lol true, i play “simple man” though for a better mind fuck effect
RandomGuitarNote I think simple man solo is better
R.J. Ronquillo Guitar 😂😂 the funny part is it’s not fucking sweet home Alabama 😂 it’s simple man. All you people are dumb
Freebird is like a rap freestyle. It’s not impressive because it takes the time to learn it, it’s impressive because someone clearly thought it up in the moment while jamming and it sounds great.
rap freestyles are as impressive as speeches or debates

No but, he is a very good Guitar or the best player ever and he is teaching everybody. I am playing E-Guitar because he is the best teacher and he did it for us for his Community.
"Freebird solo is not hard" proceeds to attempt to play it and sounds nothing like the song.
That's where he lost me too.
Lmfao. Was thinking the same thing.
its simple man
@@FirstLast-vv6lv mama told me, when i was young
I thought it was just me... There's no Freebird at all

Not Aussie but I'll sing it with you. "Uh-ah, u-ah ah ah ah uh!." "THUNDER STRUCK! YEAH YEAH YEAH!"
Jonathan Stamper sane
same for me, even when im playing it lol
Same lol
SAME
Eruption isn’t hard.
Plays the single most easy part of the entire song.
That’s the whole point
I know the beginning of eruption. Aka the A power chord at the beggining of the song
That’s the most famous part, and also the part that people that are non guitarist or even guitarist will probably expect to hear when they ask for eruption….
Yeah, but it's also probably the most well known part of the song

The intro to Thunderstruck was like the first thing I learned on an electric guitar. Simple patterns have always been easy; almost to a fault since they get ingrained in your fingers and more creative licks can be harder to learn from so much repetition of the easier stuff.
Some drunk: "Play FREE BIRD!!!"

@@aerot.m8976 it was my first tapping solo
Nice
mine was eruption

Crazy train is pretty Hard for me ngl
My first riff that I actually learned was "In the Belly of a Shark" because drop D is my favorite tuning
I feel like Crazy Train is definitely one of the first tapping licks everyone learns but it scares everyone off because of the last shred at the end of the solo
@@onnikokkonen1901 pero más difícil es tocarlo exactamente igual, llevo un año perfeccionando ese solo y apenas lo logré hace una semana
@@Jamie16611 No , the entire Crazy Train solo is easy . What makes VH so difficult is he doesn't play traditional scales and patterns he does it completely differently . That and his hand stretches are mind boggling .
One of my older bands learned free bird before a big show and inevitably someone shouted “play free bird” and we did. People were pretty mind blown and it really isn’t that hard of a song. Just very long.
Also, another pretty easy double tapping lick is the beginning of the crazy train solo. That was my first tapping lick.
Same here
Crazy train was my first as well

Followed by that great version of You Really Got Me!
What a perfect introduction to a band, great guitar solo, then a killer version of a song you already know. It's just a shame they went pop after that.

1:59 part of the solo from Freebird by Lynyrd Skynyrd (he goes on about that one for a while)
4:07 Eruption - Van Halen
5:53 Thunderstruck - AC/DC
7:47 not a riff, just a whammy bar dive (like the end of Cemetery Gates by Pantera, or any power metal solo)

Thank you for saving me 10 minutes. Time is a precious commodity

powergamer6
I guess it depends if you just want the list of what he considers not as hard as it sounds, or the explanation; which is the whole point of the video.
If you just want the list, why bother timestamping it?
You are the real music is win!!
Just a quick note on the Eruption tapping pattern; Eddie isn't tapping a simple triplet pattern on each triad (as 95% of guitarist do, including myself for years). What he does is tap and then pull off on the 'highest' note on each shape [w/ right index finger] while his left index finger holds the 'lowest' note, THEN hammers and pulls off on the 'middle' note on each shape [w/ left ring or pinky finger]. This actually gives a 4 note repeating pattern [high-low-middle-low] instead of a triplet [high-middle-low]. With the combination of the delay and the speed he's changing shapes on the record it can trick the ear into sounding like a 'triplet' tap without delay. It's actually a little weird to play at first, but you can definitely hear a difference. Props to anyone trying their hand at Eruption! ;o)
danh5150 Eddie is the king after all 🤘🤷🏻♂️
danh5150 i thought its high low middle, not high low middle low or high middle low
Are there any videos showing this? All the RUclips videos seem to be showing it the 'wrong' way, using triplets.
@@programmer1840 I've seen some people on RUclips play it like that, but they never talk about it. They just play it like they assume that everyone taps it like that. I first notice it the VH I transcription book (Hal Leonard or Cherry Lane; can't recall the publisher).
7:13 made me sub
A riff that never fails to impress a crowd is *smoke on the water* . Trust me, although it looks quite intimidating to most guitar players, it's actually very simple when you get the hang of it, and it's even more impressive to play in front of a crowd!
my gf shall never watch this video

Maybe for you. Just keep practicing and you'll be laughing at yourself for saying that one day
Not just the tapping part
The whole 10 minutes of eruption live
Tapping a triad on one string is the easiest thing you can do on guitar
@Ayda Sh you know eruption isn’t just tapping right?
@Ayda Sh but he said whammy dives and tremolo picking which isn’t in the tapping part
How about a 'licks/riffs that sound easy but aren't' video?

So I then said "sorry man, guess I don't know that one". I need to learn more songs with the word bird in the title.

Legendary licks to try out in a guitar store to impress those employed there.
But can you play the intro to smoke on the water?
I'm convinced its impossible. My great grandfather was a guitar god. He had mastered such legendary songs as "Smells like teen spirit" but when he attenpted smoke ons the water. He had a heart attack.

Yup. Takes years of.practice to play something like fade to black all the way through. But video games do help hand eye coordination.
Ugh, I hate all those fucking predatory ads, or rather "teaching corporations". And I promise you the people that fall victim to them, will still never learn a thing, just like I predicted all the comments to this video would be the typical -You say it's easy, but I'll stick to learning green day or some stupid shit like that.
Is it just me or could anyone else hear the “thunder, Ahh ah ah ah ah ah ahhha” at 6:30
This is so absolutely important for young musicians. When I was teaching myself electric guitar as a teen (pre RUclips) all I saw was tabs that seemed like completely random fingers and strings. I never understood how patterns are linked together to actually learn these rather than just hard memorization note by note. This are downright impossible if you're just staring at the tablature and see numbers everywhere.

Thunderstruck with legato doesn't sound right, ya know? I feel like there's a lack of that "bite" in the notes, and it sounds a tad less energetic.
Akshay Ravi Kumar nah
He just does it for looks, it wasnt strict legato on the record
@@steelwarrior105 Yeah I know :D you can hear each note being picked in the recording. What I'm saying is, sure it's okay when people use legato to play it, but it will sound weak to my ears.

@@Diego-fp7kd right. His freebird literally doesnt even sound like freebird. What a hack
I agree. I was waiting for something to sound anything like Freebird, but it never happened.
Freebird Solo is a few ancient blues licks put together he just broke it down to its simplest form for noobs and (cough) drummers lol. You do realize he does shit like this on purpose to troll the trolls. It took me to see him on other channels to realize that A. He has a dry sense of humor and a closet wise ass and B. He is way too thorough and detail oriented to let things fall through the cracks. Now I have to watch every vid and comments as people lose their shit lol. I could be wrong but like my ex used to say "your such a know it all" So it must be true. Lol.
My point is, to claim that something isnt hard to do and then not be able to show that it isnt hard to do, by doing it yourself, makes for a failure video.

4:40 one of my martial arts students, a 7 year old girl, had a cut on her middle finger. I was giving her a bandaid and I told her to give me her finger. She held all of her fingers out, so I couldn't get the bandaid around the finger that was cut. So I told her to curl her other fingers back. She curled her middle finger back with it and made a fist, and was giving me this look of dread. So I told her "ok, it doesn't mean anything right now, just stick your middle finger up so I can put the bandaid on it."
Bloody hell, that's adorable.

eruption is actually about highly advanced technique and strength and a very unique approach to playing. you don't just play eruption you have to take time out of your life to study the techniques he used to get the sounds he got in that piece of music. it's not just guitar playing it's next level technique muting hammerons and pull-offs special techniques that have their own special sounds.

ayyyy viva la vida is like my favorite album ever
It kills me when people say that"s not how its played! There are 12 notes is a chromatic scale and only 5 in a pentatontic. So there are multiple places on the guitar to get the same tone (Note) that maybe more comfortable for you the player to achieve the same sound. That doesn't make it wrong.
These are a great safeswitch when you're playing for non-guitar player friends. If they're getting bored and not giving you any attention, time to surprise everyone with the intro of Eruption, followed by Thunderstruck! When everyone's in the ecstasy of an eargasm, finish it off with the harmonic dive bomb trick, instant respect! Then you can even play Mary Had a Little Lamb they won't ever dare to look away.
Haha! :D

He expects me to be able to just watch his hands doing the Freebird lick, however slowly, and know what the hell he's doing. Oh, bless your heart.
I like how this guy can be so profession yet have that kid stoke
Eddie Van Halen's first serious instrument was piano (he even won some regional teenage piano contest), which is perhaps why two-handed tapping came naturally to him. Nobody told him you're not supposed to be doing that... ;) One of the first recorded examples of tapping in rock, BTW, is Steve Hackett in Genesis's "The Return Of The Giant Hogweed".
I guess Freebird is hard to play in the right scale.

Love this Video! Thank You for being AWESOME!!
I suck at hammer ons and pull offs. I can’t go nearly as fast as required, but I still try.
It‘s just a matter of synchronisation and stamina. You‘ll do better after some practice.
Always remember, clarity before speed,if you get the notes down,you can always speed it up later,but if you try to play it at their speed always without playing it smooth first, you'll always play it sloppy, believe me,I know from experience,call me at,405-268-4695, and we can play guitar over the phone together,and I can help you for sure,slow down,keep playing it,you'll get it, promise
dave rave I appreciate it, but I have a teacher I go to regularly. He says the same basically. Also, HOW DARE YOU WRITE SOMETHING NICE ON THE INTERNET! 😂😆🤣
Great video! However, Angus picks live during Thunderstruck, or at least he did when I saw them. You can hear him picking on the live albums during the intro. The only time I think he didn't was for the music video.
The EVH lick I think goes 3-1-2-3-1-2 not 3-2-1-3-2-1
~inserts link of Pete Thorns - Learn to play eruption Part 5/5 ~ You are correct
This is exactly right - (t9p2h5 to start, then up from there through the different chords it outlines) also not sure what he even meant by "Eddie double taps." It's just that one pattern of tap-pull-hammer repeated for the whole thing.
Actually in that case, its 3-2-1-0-1-2-3, he totally ignored the open string on each, which makes eddie's technique way harder but sound so good.
@@Jordan-rb28 I think you have mistaken eruption for hot for teacher. In eruption he doesn't do that pattern. But in hot for teacher and in a Spanish fly section he does
The first tapping lick I tried was the Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers theme :P

Love it!
I think when most people request Freebird they're actually referring to the SOLO towards the end...
I've actually argued with people on this. But I think the Thunderstruck intro sounds better picked lol. At least when I personally play it, I always pick each note. Sounds more badass to me that way.
It does sound better picked cause mmmph sexy. And its picked in studio recording.
It sounds better when it's picked because it's slightly more difficult to play picked because it requires more coordination, and you can hear the extra skill it requires when it's picked.
Someone always asks for Free Bird. You troll them and play Simple Man. I’m lovin it.
just admit..you made the video to "impress" your Mom and show how clean you're keeping the basement.
He lives in his house, with his wife and kid. Ya done goofed
@@christiangarcia3140 r/whooosh
Besides, my basement is t nearly that clean and neat, so I'm still impressed. Now I absolutely hope his mom sees this.
@@christiangarcia3140 kid?

5:14 "it's just a matter of getting it up to speed and, switching, putting your fingers in the right place" Ha ha!
I was so worried that Through the Fire and Flames and Master of Puppets would be on here. I worked so hard to learn them lol
When I saw the title I immediatly knew the eruption tab part would be included, I play it all the time if people ask to play something really cool and most of the time it leaves them Godsmacked. xD
I personally think Eruption has more difficult parts than the one displayed here.
Mertbay Ülger I also cringe at how he goes on about how easy eruption is, but doesn’t play the majority of the song or any of, in my opinion, harder parts.
Ryan Kelsey you guys are actually so fucking stupid. Any normal non asshole person correctly assumes hes only talking about the tapping part and not the whole solo.
john john So if someone assumes the whole song they’re an asshole? Talk about being fucking stupid
john Nathan ur calling people fucking stupid for criticizing somebody who’s calling eruption easy and they’re the assholes? yea ur the asshole buddy he never said the tapping section. plus he played like 1/50th of freebird and said it’s easy. yea no shit
A friend of ours used to yell Play free bird at gigs as a joke. So we did it. Then he tried to find another song to yell out. He chose Sugar Sugar by the Archies, thinking we would never do that. After a break, during which someone had put some hip hop on the jukebox, my drummer and bass player started playing along with the jukebox. I joined in and started singing the lyrics to Sugar Sugar on top of it. I wish I had it on video. It was glorious.
I love the shot at 7:16 when you throw the "Music is Win" sign during "Thunderstruck". Your logo on the monitor behind you helps reinforce the scene. Keep the videos coming.
Totally laughed out loud at that moment. Music is Win is win.
You're new here, aren't you? It's the horns, man. \m/
@@flyboy2099 I know it's the horns. With the logo behind his head it looks like he is trying to flash a gang sign.
7:47 imagine combining that with crazy train by Ozzy Osbourne 🤯. Using at the start before the main riff
8:47 when the tornado alarm starts
