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.
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.
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!
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.
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.
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 !
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.
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
Extraordinary. Such a thoughtful and “knowing” arrangement. Thanks so much for your exquisite performance, and for the tremendous amount of work and dedication this clearly took. Bravo! Dave, in Los Angeles
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!!☺

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.
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
I can play the beginning to Smoke on the Water.

we'll congratugoddamlations dude
Lol
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.
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.
I finally know what I want to do with my life!
Become a king and have this man play for me every day.
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.
4:04 "How many notes at once can you play?"
*Joao* : "Yes."
Why am I so impressed with the gentle, yet perfect timing conducted by his right hand? This song is hypnotizing played in this style
the most impressive part of this is the where and when he uses harmonics, so perfect, so good, so talented
You should do Exit Music (For a Film)
I wanna take the challenge
totally
BEST COMMENT EVER
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!
Sounds like a Radiohead fan's wedding entrance. Incredible skill!
I've learned different variations of Karma police so far. You have taken it to a much higher level. Impressive and beautifully done.
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!
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
Какой труд надо вложить, чтобы так играть! А ещё и талант... Таких гитаристов очень мало. Отдельный респект - за интерпретацию.
The harmonics is purely perfect interpreted! Good job my friend.
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.

When you catch your hs music teacher still in the building at 5PM and the rumors of his divorce/drinking start to make sense
That’s beautiful, dude. Those harmonics are so on point.
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!
My guitar doesn't do that. I think it might be faulty.
This made me chuckle
Joao, this is another fantastic cover. I love this song, it is so emotive, and your style compliments it perfectly.
This is the most deeply stunning and gorgeous playing I heard on a classic guitar.
I love how you feel it, that serious face which means pure passion
Underrated... This is just amazing!
This channel has become my favorite.
im honoured to have found and heard this rendition of one of my favourite songs. thank you, sir.
Dá pra ver que você realmente sentiu a música. Que belíssimo.
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.
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
I've just realized after burning my guitars, bass, ukulele and mandolin that the wood is really good for smoking a meat
Cara, por favor... Posta mais disso. 🙏🏾 ABSURDO!!
4:05 you just committed genocide on all pop musicians in the world today
This was the best cover I’ve seen of karma police omg
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!
"Fake Plastic Trees", pleaaaseeeee.....☺☺☺
Yasss
The master himself humbly showing us how a god plays radio head
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.
Bass, arpeggios AND melody - come on man!
I come back here sometimes and always forget about the sick tremolo part past 4th minute mark, fantastic :D!
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 cow!....That right hand technique is mind blowing.
Another excellent interpretation and arrangement
Those harmonics sounds so sweet, I should practice using them like this
The harmonic arrangement is one of the most impressive classical guitar melodies I've seen
Super versão. Lindíssima!
Excelente!!! É sempre bom ver talento português
This to me, illustrates the pure, and incontrovertible genius that is Radiohead. Musical genius. Beautiful interpretation.
Sir, you just have gained another fan! Bravo and bravo! you are beyond words!
Greetings with much respect from México.
Eu amo Radiohead e tu és uma grande guitarrista. Parabéns 👏
THIS STUFF IS INSANE!!
Wow. This is so enchanting and I never knew karma police could sound THIS beautiful. Thank you so much 💗
Wow, thank you I needed that this morning .
Two things: holy s**t,that was awesome,and, "so that's why the guitar is shaped like that..."
The only thing missing is the applause by the end of the video, man, nice arrangement!
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.
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
No
This song goes so much further. I wouldn't compare it to the beatles.
Perfectly performed! Sounds so rich. Excellent expression!
Simplesmente esplendoroso!!
This is fantastic.
I like how he changes the melody that gets the harmonic treatment in the 2nd chorus
… speechless… just beautiful…
For me this bridges the gap between "fingerstyle" and “classical”.
(For me...!)
I hope you know I come back to this a l l the time. You are incredible.
He even makes it sound like a key change at times but it isnt....guy is a genius
Those harmonics were just pure class!
I hope you get good karma for this beautiful playing.
Would love to hear "high and dry" someday.
YES THANK YOU , SO BEAUTIFUL 🙏
Nice arrangement; the harp harmonics were a nice touch!
the bridge a little after 3:15 is where the artistry is proved in this piece
This guy has amazing control over triplets and harmonics. Amazing.
Great performance, and an illustration of why I'm a Radiohead fan.
a kid rock song can't be done in this way.
Greatly appreciate the time youve spent mastering and practicing these for our listening..a talent indeed
Fantastic
Whoa.. gooo Flamenco-picking @ around the 4 min mark : ) Sounds pretty rad with all the pinched harmonics he adds too..
I think you are the best guitarist in the world.
Mito, apenas digo
Este arreglo es de lejos el mejor que he escuchado de esta canción.
Holy shit, what a F**IN TREMENDOUS CLASSICAL SPANISH ENDING....BRAVOOO
A coda beyond absurd, preceding song was pleasantly delicate.
Absolutely beautiful. Thank you.
Extraordinary. Such a thoughtful and “knowing” arrangement. Thanks so much for your exquisite performance, and for the tremendous amount of work and dedication this clearly took. Bravo!
Dave, in Los Angeles
Incredibly fluid.
Pretty amazing work!!!
This sounds amazing. You are very talented. I can tell you put a lot of time and work into putting these masterpieces together, great job!
OH YOU ARE AMAZING. GREAT ARRANGEMENT, ALSO GREAT PLAYING.
impressionante. magnifico
Thank you! This is a great performance.
Magistral. Gracias.
This is so goddamn beautiful :"")
The gitarist so smooth when play the guitar
Heavenly and badass at the same time !!
You have a new subscriber my friend!!! You're very talented!!
