My friend, I was 14 years old when I found this video with a friend. I listened to this more times than I can remember throughout the years (mind you, on my first RUclips account, different than this one I am commenting on). Tonight, I am blessed to have been recommended this video on this account, and it brought back some VERY fond memories... I am 31 years old now. I don't know if you realize the impact this video you uploaded sixteen years ago has made on me... Thank you for bringing me back to my childhood.
+lXlinfinitylXl i found this in december of 07. walking down the student parking hill in 9th grade in the dark morning, seeing the whole school still lit up by street lights is an unforgettable feeling.
2022...still waiting like you. I dare say he didn't even beat himself in his 40th Anniversary edition. That one is really good as well, but doesn't quite strike the emotions as deep. This is an all time best version of the song.
I'll say this a billion times, Who inspired me to pick up the electric guitar? Not Page, not Vai, not Van Halen, not Slash, not Clapton, but TOM!! I swear on god! When I heard this for the first time back in 2007, it melted my brain. Thank you Tom :-) But for you I'd have never know how awesome it is to be an electric guitarist. Seriously thank you tom. You personify awesomeness for me!
Ah yes , I remember when this came out, then I told my friends that there was no way anyone would play better, and now I see that I was right. I listen to this thing every couple of months just to remeber about some of my memories. I was looking for a better cover for a long time but it wasn't there. It is immortal.
Thank you so much dude, it's one of my favourite song covers ever. I really appreciate that you've made that cover. I run out of words, I can't even describe how gorgeous is it.
i wasn't expecting this....when he started to "scratch" that guitar...my heart started to shiver like hell....incredible version, keep up the good work!
Ofcourse you look this on 15.02.2016 and just see "Bad quality Camera and Sound" meh. But look on the Upload date: 15.10.2007! This was the Real thing for up to 20 years almost. I remember i was seen it on 2008. It wasnt on 9Gag or stuff like that... i was looking for nice Covers and just found it. I remember it. You Guy are an Legend.
I watched this video in November 2008 ... So much addiction still today .... I listen to it every week ... It's amazing how you made a boring song into a total explosion of heart and mind "just" by playing your guitar. It's always a pleasure to listen to your songs but this one i will always love the most
although neither into the rocknroll style nor into strat guitar, this thing seduces me and kills me with goosebumps. this man is gonna do something great in future
You have to shred again like this to another one of Rob Dougan's songs man. I know you can't recreate this one, but damn, you created a cult following of you with this one cover!
Love it all, from the intensity of a Hammett and the "lets see where this takes me" of SRV to the experimental almost chip-tune sounds in the interlude. Thinking of doing something like this with a bass and some wah
Same here bro... I've started to play the guitar right after watching to this video back in 2008 but still can't play like 20% of his technique nowadays. lol
2024 here listening. I have been listening to this since 2008. l can't believe I have not commented. This is truly amazing! I am a pianist and can't even replicate this! May the God/Almighty University bless you and your family for all your days!!!🌌🙏💪💯🎹🎼🎶
Ok, now the same thing in full surround, but after drinking a ton of beer (that i can provide) and will do a kumbaya and pray for the humankind together,
Going down a nostalgia rabbit hole tonight. The last time I watched this was in 2009 when I was a freshman in high school. This video was so formative on myself and two other friends at that point and I’m glad it still exists. Still completely rips on its own but the personal attachment and the floods of really good memories it brings just filled my heart with such joy for a time gone by. Thanks for this man. Hope you’re well.
I have loved this song since i first heard it in The Matrix. This is the most amazing version of it EVA!!! Bro you need to call Rob and get in a studio.
THIS WAS AMAZING...you used that guitar to its fullest. you've got crazy talent man. also liked how much you were just enjoying yourself shredding it up!
I love this song, i knew it from Matrix, and i think this is the version that describes most the movie. Other versions just take the suspense, this also takes the action, and that is awesome!!!
(sorry for my english) Damn, I loved it to the very last second, and when it was over, I thought "I NEED to sign up to my account just so I can post a comment to tell this guy that he's awesome." So... Man, you're awesome. Greetings from France
Been listening to this for so many years... Every now and then I come here. This is such a masterpiece. It's beautiful and agressive. Just sounds amazing. BTW I truly recommend you guys to listen to this at the same time while playing "Destino"(on mute of course), it's a visual masterpiece by S. Dali and Walt Disney. It's that kind of stuff that acidentally SYNC UP COMPLETELY and gaves you chills. Like Pink Floyd and The Wizard of Oz, but way shorter.
I think.. is a genius, mixing a melody, with extremly capacity and greatest performance.... with a guitar... what a faboulus idea make that song more strong.... give me nearly goose pumps... great great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Donatello
16 yrs ago I watched this video and I was mesmerized by freezOne guitar solo layered on this great song which is based on Edward Elgar Enigma Variations. I still visit this channel to listen to this great version. Thank you.

yeah it's incredible
15 years and this is still my absolute favorite improv cover that I've ever seen!
Every now and then I have to play it again
Has released its tab ?
Have to agree!!! I always comeback to this.
This song was the reason I made a "Cover" folder here on RUclips. And here I am, ten years later.
I listened to this 7 years ago and still to this day i get an unreal vibe, amazing.
+lXlinfinitylXl i found this in december of 07. walking down the student parking hill in 9th grade in the dark morning, seeing the whole school still lit up by street lights is an unforgettable feeling.
+lXlinfinitylXl idem
lXlinfinitylXl heard this a couple years ago gave me the chills up my spine, and now I jam to it to motivate me...
yep me too, and I have yet to find a better version !!!
Same case here.. Unbelievably good.
2020 - still waiting on someone beating this as greatest RUclips guitar solo
2022...still waiting like you. I dare say he didn't even beat himself in his 40th Anniversary edition. That one is really good as well, but doesn't quite strike the emotions as deep. This is an all time best version of the song.
Still here for decades
Its 2024 still nobody can't find one
Yes I’m still listeing it for beggining. Always in original I miss these guitar parts. Absolute love. Respect.
Still waiting in 2024
I'll say this a billion times, Who inspired me to pick up the electric guitar? Not Page, not Vai, not Van Halen, not Slash, not Clapton, but TOM!! I swear on god!

Guitar at the back was like..
"Finger me later, master!"
+BlackmanTheJock hahahahaha
HAHAHAHAHAHA OMG rly nice one...
Ah yes , I remember when this came out, then I told my friends that there was no way anyone would play better, and now I see that I was right. I listen to this thing every couple of months just to remeber about some of my memories. I was looking for a better cover for a long time but it wasn't there. It is immortal.
My grandfather died today and I found this truly amazing piece of art, i dedicated this song to him, to his spirit RIP
Rip:(
This - Ladies and Gentlemen - Is what you call natural talent - It can't be bottled and sold - some have it.....the rest of us say.....oh crap
you can improve in everything, it's just a matter of time (y)
Hell yeah
Talent yes, but don't forget the thousands hours of practice and dedication.
Oh crap in deed
People aren't born with talent, they develop skills. And this man is highly skilled.
The year is 2021 and this song is still good
Please do this again, in 1080p and release it. I'm sure Rob would give is approval.
U cant do this again mate, not the same..
He did, haha
Listening it atm, it is not the same at all. The lines are different.
That's why it's called a rendition..
I have no reason to make two identical versions , in period of 9 years many things are changed, and music too
I don't think I have any option but to listen to this for 10th time....
Yup... the chills are real.
Thank you so much dude, it's one of my favourite song covers ever. I really appreciate that you've made that cover. I run out of words, I can't even describe how gorgeous is it.
i wasn't expecting this....when he started to "scratch" that guitar...my heart started to shiver like hell....incredible version, keep up the good work!
This solo is truely magnificent, I heard this at least over 100 times in the past 4 years and it still catchy, Keep on playing man! Great job
Legendary... perfection... OMG ⚡ 😲 😱 ⚡ 😲 😱
My all time favorite since 2010. Sounds deep, dark, & passionate af!
This is BEAUTIFUL! One of the best solo I've heard in my life...
2022. I swear I watched this over 10 years ago and still come back to hear it. It's a classic.
everyone that listened to this more than 5 years ago can remember exactly what they were doing at that moment, that is some powerful shit right there!
i´ve been listening to this since he uploaded it and it never gets old, infact it gets better everytime. LEGENDARY !!
2022.... Still......no better......solo........than this! This whole cover is a great good amazing fantastic solo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This man is the son of Orpheus.
This is not a cover. It is a totally unique version, and damn, I bet Rob Dougan would love to work with this guy.
i can honestly say that i did not think it possible to improve on the original version. kudos brother. i am officially blown away.
Phew ...never get tired of this....genius
probobly 10th time i look at this in a week or so. I will never ever get tired of hearing this masterpiece!
yeahh me too
Best guitarist I've seen in a while. He's not just playing the hell out that guitar, he's singing through his fingers haha
Not at all a fan of guitars ... and yet when you started up your piece, chills ran up my spine. It fit so perfectly. AWESOME!
Wow I enjoyed this more than the original version. Congrats man. You should've be famous by now with that talent .Gave me the chills!
Ofcourse you look this on 15.02.2016 and just see "Bad quality Camera and Sound" meh. But look on the Upload date: 15.10.2007! This was the Real thing for up to 20 years almost.

Ever since you've published this video I find it to be the best music performance on YT ever.
Lol.....yeah this never gets old, very fine playing, again, I say, we need to jam buddy
Love it all, from the intensity of a Hammett and the "lets see where this takes me" of SRV to the experimental almost chip-tune sounds in the interlude. Thinking of doing something like this with a bass and some wah

Going down a nostalgia rabbit hole tonight. The last time I watched this was in 2009 when I was a freshman in high school.

BTW I truly recommend you guys to listen to this at the same time while playing "Destino"(on mute of course), it's a visual masterpiece by S. Dali and Walt Disney.
It's that kind of stuff that acidentally SYNC UP COMPLETELY and gaves you chills. Like Pink Floyd and The Wizard of Oz, but way shorter.
