uneedtherapy42 I read your comment a year ago when you posted it and just now came back to see if my opinion of it has changed but no, its still not funny
How's he playing them off the typical frets? I noticed he picks way up the neck on some of those. I didn't realize that was possible, but I suppose the physics would support it.
@@jasmadams for example there is a harmonic at the twelfth fret on an open string, but if you fret that string at the second fret, then the corresponding harmonic would be at the 14th fret. Normally when you play open string harmonics you have both hands at your disposal (one to touch the string at the harmonic location and the other to pluck). But in the latter case--as you noted--it's different: one hand frets the string while the other has to both touch the harmonic location and pluck. It looks like João uses his pointer finger to touch the string at the harmonic spot and uses his ring finger on the same hand to pluck the string.... Kind of hard to describe in words but actually not too difficult to do. Getting such good tone with it as João though is impressive.
When the guys from Radiohead wrote this, you can hear the Lennon/McCartney influence ...its all over the song.....beautiful. this guys version is proper
Pure Fucking Talent.... This guy has put everything he has into his art, and also has a God given gift. Been playing for 26 years and wish I had this gentleman's chops. Plays effortlessly which makes people like me realize we suck lol. Awesome video, love it, keep them coming.
it is sort of surprising ..as a very interested person, regarding both radiohead AND classical guitar,..decades of either.. that i had not thought until this afternoon to make a search that brought those worlds together. it has been a fun hour or so, all interesting interpretations. this one too is awesome. very nice.
I loved what the guitarist John Williams did with contemporary music and the classical guitar. This is standing on the shoulders of giants and have improved what JW achieved. Thank you!
The funny thing is that I'm so thrilled with this interpretation, but this portion didn't really grab my attention. I'm an intermediate banjo player, and now I see through the magic of rolls. He executes them flawlessly, but honestly there are plenty of other parts, where he is pulling off far more impressive technical feats.
OMG i frekin love this and you play it with such dedication and feeling a can feel it, hats off to you what a beautiful cover of a great song! Thank you for this !
Anyone who plays classical can hear the pain it must have taken to get this down. I would have to practice artificial harmonics for year. You have to go exactly 12 frets or octave and muffle with index and pluck with middle or ring. This guy does it like he is bored with the whole thing. Amazing.
Brilliant. All I've wanted is to play classical guitar. For some reason when I play it doesn't sound and feel classical in mine eyes. Love how you play. Awesome.
Absolutely AMAZING. The tremolo picking, The artificial harmonic chord picking. The entire arrangement - AMAZING. Thank you for being so damn good at what you do. ( I love you?) (I adore your talent??!!) You are an amazing musician.
I'm certain "FPT" would definitely sound most emotional and heartfelt, with your style of arrangement... I would be hugely delighted if you could do a piece of it, too!!!😊😊 since it's one of my faves of Radiohead... the world absolutely needs more of music by people who can play with the soul like you do..😢😢 gotta hear more!!☺

Nice.
Lol
Arrest this man,he talks in music
lmao
That's a good one
I couldn't help filling in the lyrics in my mind, Decayed Soul. This is lovely.
After 18 years of playing the guitar i now know for sure i suck.
It's your guitar that sucks. Keep trying.
kite666G drop the pick. It takes awhile to get good at finger picking, but once you do, it opens a whole new world. P.S. I'm sure you don't suck! ✌
after 20 years playing guitar seen this makes me realize that i was playing other instrument. This guy use the guitar as an orchestra
It calls bossanova.
So so I
Aside from being played insanely well, this isn't a mere cover, it is an interpretation. I honestly don't know what to say. This is just stunning.
You should do Exit Music (For a Film)
I wanna take the challenge
totally
BEST COMMENT EVER
I finally know what I want to do with my life!
Become a king and have this man play for me every day.
My guitar doesn't do that. I think it might be faulty.
This made me chuckle
the fact that this doesn't have a million+ views is absolutely criminal
Yes! we need the Police after them... perhaps the Karma Police? :)
uneedtherapy42 I read your comment a year ago when you posted it and just now came back to see if my opinion of it has changed but no, its still not funny
Wow dude! A full year...? Got spare time much?
you don't see people improving Bach or beethoven...
Why? Pretty primitive and boring piece. People knew how to write better music 300 years ago.
4:04 "How many notes at once can you play?"
*Joao* : "Yes."
That was the most amazing arrangement of Karma Police I've ever seen.
made it way less horrible that's for sure.
@@agentzero4281 You're an idiot. And that's being generous
@@agentzero4281 loser comment.
That feel when I just discovered this channel and he hasn't uploaded in over 2 years... ;/
me too
Same here, it's a disgrace he doesn't have billions of views!
In case you didnt get the notification from youtube, he started again! He dropped an album!
DX
Why am I so impressed with the gentle, yet perfect timing conducted by his right hand? This song is hypnotizing played in this style
Sounds like a Radiohead fan's wedding entrance. Incredible skill!
This is awesome, thank you for sharing your talent. I rocked my daughter to sleep to this arrangement. She's fast asleep now, thanks brother!
the most impressive part of this is the where and when he uses harmonics, so perfect, so good, so talented
Ben Shaprio's lit at guitar.
Lmao I was thinking that too
*Libtards destroyed by amazing guitar play*
It's like him fused with monk
@@MemestiffGaming lmao
He probably could be - he's not a bad violinist
"Fake Plastic Trees", pleaaaseeeee.....☺☺☺
Yasss
Why is it just now that I'm finding this? This is absolutely amazing, I wish I could go back in time to show myself this video!
I've learned different variations of Karma police so far. You have taken it to a much higher level. Impressive and beautifully done.
The harmonics is purely perfect interpreted! Good job my friend.

No
This song goes so much further. I wouldn't compare it to the beatles.
I love how you feel it, that serious face which means pure passion
Какой труд надо вложить, чтобы так играть! А ещё и талант... Таких гитаристов очень мало. Отдельный респект - за интерпретацию.
I've just realized after burning my guitars, bass, ukulele and mandolin that the wood is really good for smoking a meat

I like how he changes the melody that gets the harmonic treatment in the 2nd chorus
When you catch your hs music teacher still in the building at 5PM and the rumors of his divorce/drinking start to make sense
The master himself humbly showing us how a god plays radio head
Two things: holy s**t,that was awesome,and, "so that's why the guitar is shaped like that..."
I loved what the guitarist John Williams did with contemporary music and the classical guitar.
This is standing on the shoulders of giants and have improved what JW achieved.
Thank you!
Underrated... This is just amazing!
That’s beautiful, dude. Those harmonics are so on point.
This is the most deeply stunning and gorgeous playing I heard on a classic guitar.
I come back here sometimes and always forget about the sick tremolo part past 4th minute mark, fantastic :D!
He even makes it sound like a key change at times but it isnt....guy is a genius
Joao, this is another fantastic cover. I love this song, it is so emotive, and your style compliments it perfectly.
THIS STUFF IS INSANE!!
This was the best cover I’ve seen of karma police omg
Those harmonics sounds so sweet, I should practice using them like this
im honoured to have found and heard this rendition of one of my favourite songs. thank you, sir.
Cara, por favor... Posta mais disso. 🙏🏾 ABSURDO!!
Thanks, I am just going out now to burn my guitar.
Mick Rob I can relate😂😂😂 I might burn mine, too😅😅
I laughed so hard, dude. But I feel you.
So funny bro. no need to burn your git` tho.
Just shrug your shoulders and admit defeat. It is an amazing performance tho hey?
ORRRR learn how to play fingerstyle and play the songs that this guy hasn't? don't give up so easily y'all
Ikr!
prepare to get your mind blown at 4:16
The funny thing is that I'm so thrilled with this interpretation, but this portion didn't really grab my attention. I'm an intermediate banjo player, and now I see through the magic of rolls. He executes them flawlessly, but honestly there are plenty of other parts, where he is pulling off far more impressive technical feats.
Holy cow!....That right hand technique is mind blowing.
The harmonic arrangement is one of the most impressive classical guitar melodies I've seen
Dá pra ver que você realmente sentiu a música. Que belíssimo.
Anyone else plan on getting the tab until it got to 4:10? "Yeah, I could have a go at this. It seems ... damn!"
… speechless… just beautiful…
For me this bridges the gap between "fingerstyle" and “classical”.
(For me...!)
Did this guy just make love to this instrument? Now I want to hear it on electric....that was pretty fuckin amazing!
This to me, illustrates the pure, and incontrovertible genius that is Radiohead. Musical genius. Beautiful interpretation.
This guy has amazing control over triplets and harmonics. Amazing.
Whoa.. gooo Flamenco-picking @ around the 4 min mark : ) Sounds pretty rad with all the pinched harmonics he adds too..
Bass, arpeggios AND melody - come on man!
The gitarist so smooth when play the guitar
Excelente!!! É sempre bom ver talento português
Sir, you just have gained another fan! Bravo and bravo! you are beyond words!
Greetings with much respect from México.
OMG i frekin love this and you play it with such dedication and feeling a can feel it, hats off to you what a beautiful cover of a great song! Thank you for this !
Holy shit, what a F**IN TREMENDOUS CLASSICAL SPANISH ENDING....BRAVOOO

more radiohead please..
Those harmonics were just pure class!
This is fantastic.
the bridge a little after 3:15 is where the artistry is proved in this piece
Brilliant. All I've wanted is to play classical guitar. For some reason when I play it doesn't sound and feel classical in mine eyes. Love how you play. Awesome.
Eu amo Radiohead e tu és uma grande guitarrista. Parabéns 👏
Wow, thank you I needed that this morning .
Super versão. Lindíssima!
This channel has become my favorite.
The only thing missing is the applause by the end of the video, man, nice arrangement!
Lost for words... Let that instrument sing....
The sound had stopped and I still was looking to the black and silent screen...
With tears in my eyes.
YES THANK YOU , SO BEAUTIFUL 🙏
Este arreglo es de lejos el mejor que he escuchado de esta canción.
4:05 you just committed genocide on all pop musicians in the world today
Absolutely AMAZING. The tremolo picking, The artificial harmonic chord picking. The entire arrangement - AMAZING. Thank you for being so damn good at what you do. ( I love you?) (I adore your talent??!!) You are an amazing musician.
Simplesmente esplendoroso!!
A coda beyond absurd, preceding song was pleasantly delicate.
Another excellent interpretation and arrangement
Mito, apenas digo
Wow. This is so enchanting and I never knew karma police could sound THIS beautiful. Thank you so much 💗
most clean version ever heard...
Its like a quartet, including vocalist..... Genius!!!! :-)
I hope you know I come back to this a l l the time. You are incredible.
Nice arrangement; the harp harmonics were a nice touch!
Great performance, and an illustration of why I'm a Radiohead fan.
a kid rock song can't be done in this way.
This is so goddamn beautiful :"")
Prendam este homem
Wow so beautiful, you have just reminded me that humans can be wonderful !
You have a new subscriber my friend!!! You're very talented!!

OH YOU ARE AMAZING. GREAT ARRANGEMENT, ALSO GREAT PLAYING.
Heavenly and badass at the same time !!
Greatly appreciate the time youve spent mastering and practicing these for our listening..a talent indeed
@1:44 master of harmonics... thinking about how I struggle trying to get just a proper one.... I might start playing piano...
This is incredibly beautiful and awe inspiring, nice fucking job
That right handed fret and pick is incredible!
Incredibly fluid.
