People comparing you to all these other musicians/guitarists but nah, man you're unique. So beautiful, never heard anything like it because you hold more than just music, you have soul and passion in your playing, something people can't just learn or mimic

My guitar said "Why dont you play like this?"

2:37 this chord progression is unbelievable

My god… this song will never be the same ♥️

Mateus, I’m sure you probably won’t read this. But whenever I’m feeling stressed, anxious or nervous about anything I’ll listen to this song and it eases my worries. You the man.

My best friend passed away. We liked this song. Thank you M. Dammit.

My brother recently passed away. I his final words he pointed me in the direction of this song. Thank you for providing him with a few minutes of solace and happiness x

6 years later and this is still my favorite piece of music ever created!

I can only dream what it’s like to be so connected to your instrument as if it’s an extension of your own body and be able to evoke every emotion you feel through it.

a lifetime of work shared with me for free....thank you for this beauty...honoring to the original and original in its own right....so gorgeous

Still one of the most beautiful things I've ever heard.

You’ll probably never read this, but when my kitty Aleczander passed they were playing the original song at the vet. We drove home after letting him go, and played this on the drive. It’s become a crucial part of remembering him, and reminding myself it’s not over. Hell always be in my heart, and this track makes me feel closer to him. Thank you for that, for this. RIP Aleczander and thank you to Mateus for the perfect musical send off to your amazing life. Til we meet again ❤

You're such an inspiration and your talent is a great gift we're all fortunate to enjoy! Bless you Mateus!

I learned this song from end to end, people tell me it's really beautiful and I was pretty proud of myself untill I rewatched it to compare across. The fluency of your playing, the dynamics, the tone, all the details add up to something unique. I'm very confident about my guitar skills, but this guy is just from another planet. His other work is otherworldly as well.

Probably one of my favorite of your covers. I consider myself to be a professional, as I teach and perform for a living. But you are the one guy who whenever I see play I know there is always massive room for improvement. Sometimes I even tell myself, "What the hell am I even doing playing when this guy exists?" Your finesse cannot easily be replicated. Keep doing you.

It's been 5 years since this masterpiece change how I see guitar as an instrument. Thanks, Mate.

Your neighbour's rent must be so high 😬

Rewatched this thing like a thousand times, never gets old. Genius.

The most wonderful guitar tone ever!

It feels like that guitar is singing and has a soul of its own. Lovely and amazing.

That intro is the sweetest shit i've ever heard. Holy..

Mind blown. Just the first 22 seconds I watched at least 5 times shaking my head. Tone. Phrasing. Subtlety. Truly inspiring.

Five years later and this is still one of my favorite videos on KZfaq.

Impossível ficar longe desse vídeo, de vez em quando sempre volto pra ouvir de novo!!!

'Mateus does not make mistake. Guitar makes mistake on Mateus.'

Last night i had a bad dream. When i woke up i logged in to youtube to calm myself by listening to music. This song was suggested to me on youtube frontpage.. Within 1 min i added this to a playlist of mine. Now, 03:26pm, im listening to it again, i realize, it actually has the word "dream' in title. Anyway, it made me relax, last night, beautifull dynamic/sensitive playing.. :)

Yooo it's been 5 years since this was released! Still one of the best guitar videos on the internet. Will never get tired of watching this.

The last 30 seconds of this song is what “living your life to the fullest” feels like 😢

One of the most beautiful things ive ever heard.

If Fender's Marketing Department had ANY SENSE AT ALL that would be a complimentary Custom Shop Strat Supreme in your hands Brother. .... I've been playing for 42 years and you just made me cry. ... that was F***ING SUBLIME. .... don't EVER stop Man .... You're the REAL DEAL.

Someone who moved your soul for yours fingers when playing this electric guitar. Thanks for you do this.

Lovely rendition of a great song, so glad all these young artists are still playing the best songs from long ago. Good music is eternal.

Sensacional! A Rádio Alpha FM podia colocar essa versão no repertório. Hehehe

longest i've ever had constant goosebumps for. dear lord how is this man not recognized as one of the greats?

Melts my heart as the first time I heard the song, and as the first time I heard Tuck Andress. Thank you... ❤️❤️❤️

Hj eu senti Deus me abraçar ao ouvir cada nota que vc tocou. Como essa música é forte!

Adoro essa música e ficou linda na sua interpretação parabens

This was so beautiful I completely spaced out and just listened. Gonna spend the rest of my night looking through all of your videos

I never tire of coming here to listen to this.

This is one of the few relics I cherish from before the pandemic. Thank you so much for continuing to inspire me day in and day out.

His style reminds me a lot of Tommy Emanuel's later compositions like "Angelina". Amazing talent. Wow!

The most touching and unique melody i’ve ever heard, those technique are just insane! Great work!

Absolutely unexpected. Complete and total masterful on guitar. I cried. Damn. Love Love Love.

I’m a kiwi 🥝 and was raised with Crowded House always jamming in my home- you’ve done the song a great service Neil Finn would be proud hearing one of his songs played the way you’ve presented it, well done. Thanks for sharing your gift with us!

How is he not one of the world's most famous guitarist right now. All his videos should be at minimum 50 million views.

Absolute talent and you’re at one with your guitar. Respect. I love seeing people just feeling music when they play. Makes my hairs stand up on the back the neck.

Wow. I am just in awe at all of these songs

6 years ago, I first listened to this cover on your Facebook page. 6 years on and I'm still mesmerized by this.

I just found this version of one of my favorite songs. This man has soul, a beautiful touch, and great tone. It floors me, this touches the heart in all of us. I have been playing guitar since 1963, chasing my muse. I applaud this young man's talent, I hope he achieves the recognition he richly deserves. And like I have travel the world behind a guitar, learning all the time. Thank you Mr. Asato, Just another guitarist in N.C. America.

Esse moleque toca com a alma! Coisa linda! Orgulho brasileiro! 2019!

Gosto de pensar e dormir ouvindo suas composições, é tão relaxante. Certamente meu guitarrista favorito e uma fonte de inspiração. Obrigado por tudo, Mateus Asato! 🙏

I’ve been playing guitar for nearly 50 years and am completely blown away by this. Your tone and touch are fantastic.

I usually don't add any comments to any KZfaq video, but for someone reason, I'm feeling compelled to. This video has brought me to tears, and I want to say thank you for your beautiful playing. Also, to anyone who's going through what seems to be an endless struggle, it'll get better. It's not over yet.

man this made me tear up...it's a blessing to hear this when I'm going through a tough time. Thanks Mateus

One of my favorite songs from the 80s... Nicely Done! ❤️🎶

Conheci essa música quando estava passando por um período bem sinistro da minha vida. Me sinto em paz sempre que ouço

Toca demais ! No som limpo ninguém consegue essa pegada melhor que ele . Top demais !!! Essa foi de emocionar ...

In my spouts of depression I come back to this song. Thanks for giving me hope

Esse som que você tira é inspirador, Extremamente relaxante, Com certeza alguém que tende a ser visto como inspiração por muitos guitarristas.

Such an incredible feeling watching this video. Anyone from any culture would have the same emotions. Music is incredible.

I've watched so many guitarists my entire life most of them are trying to make such a circus out of it, but you do your own ways, exploring the notes and melodies in a different path, i guess it mostly because you have a soul in your playing which can't be learned only by practicing, thats a gift, your techniques and everything are really working, you make a soulful harmony that able to take us to a journey and that was insane, unique, and truly beautiful, I say this is exactly how a guitar is supposed to be used. From now on I'm a fan..

Never noticed until I listened through good headphones that there is a backing that is playing the whole time and it's amazing.

I've rarely seen so much talent in soft music. It's really made for expensive elevators.

WOW! This is the most creative way I've seen this song played. So good.

0:13 I think I went to heaven for a few seconds.

The emotions and expressions flowing through his face as he plays says everything about this man! Amazing!

From a kiwi who grew up listening to this song from crowded house. I salute you sir, so beautifully played

It is now my life’s ambition to play this. Absolutely beautiful! ❤️

Caramba, que bela execução que som maravilhoso de se ouvir, música instrumental de uma guitarra espetacularmente executada, faz um baita bem prá alma e pro espirito.

Brilliant!!!! I watch this 1000 times today!

Eu já vi esse vídeo várias vezes! E cada vez fica melhor! Iluminado!

Quando estivermos chegando na entrada do céu, vai estar rolando essa música... que isso mano.. absurdo o feeling, timbre... ele é completo....

Vira e mexe eu venho e assisto esse video, me conforta e sei que traz muita paz pra muita gente também, assim como eu. Fiquei admirado hoje de ver que tem quase mil descurtidas ... não entendo a cabeça de alguém que descurte uma perfomance tão sincera e genuina como essa... na verdade, isso me doi. Mateus, tu é gigante perto de quem te admira, mas tu é muito maior de quem vem aqui e da um dislike. Grande abraço!

Sad that people like this will never get the recognition they deserve

This man is gifted thankyou for sharing this gift and not hiding your light under a bushel

Eu amo esta música! Obrigada por fazer esta linda versão. Trouxe uma quentura no coração ❤. Admiro muito o seu talento e disciplina, vc inspira muitas pessoas, inclusive eu.

Revendo essa Obra prima! Inspirador, realmente não podemos desistir dos nossos sonhos, Obrigado ! Que Deus continue te abençoando!

Como é bom ouvir um bom músico!!! Glória a Deus por sua vida!!!

Most original style I’ve heard in decades & delightful too 🎉

Kia ora Mateus⚘WOW, BEST guitar arrangement ever! Such "Big Ups" to Neil Finn and this great NZ tribute. We Kiwi say many thanks for playing a classic that gives hope to us all ❤

All these new guys playing as fast as they can and even faking it, but this guy right here, as pure and great as they come. Simply great tone, emotion and musicianship!!!

ESSE MENINO E SIMPLESMENTE DESTRUIDOR!!! ELE HUMILHA A HORA QUE QUER, A HORA QUE BEM ENTENDE! ESSE MENINO JA E UMA LENDA VIVA, ESSE MENINO E O CARA...

É emocionante demais. Esse Mateus Asato é um gênio. Único.

How I just found this and you I have honestly no idea. But your command of your own musicianship with your guitar is sensational. Thank you!

My gf just broke up with and I'm listening to this masterpiece and crying. Thank you, Mateus

Great cover of Crowded House - Dont Dream Its Over...what a beautiful playing..

This can heal any pain in this earth.. I believe!! Your music is the road to eternal bliss!!Hope I could atleast play 20% of you someday!!

Meu Deus , que solo maravilhoso de ouvir , que talento incrível ! Orgulho do Brasil em saber que Mateus assato é brasileiro. Parabéns pelo seu trabalho que você continue a inspirar as pessoas com sua música.

0:00 - 0:23 ... I'm still trying to process this.. Wow, I'm so amazed by this beautiful intro and smooth playing..

he's good we all know that. now how come nobody has ever mentioned how beautiful his hair is?!

Can’t believe watching this talented guy several years ago!

Thank you for this! One of the tracks on my sleep playlist. If ever I feel blue, or if I want to help ease any emotional pain, I'll listen to this and I'd feel better.

No sé cómo llegué hasta aquí...... Pero quedé muy impresionado con esta versión!!!! GENIAL!!! EXCELENTE!!!! SALUDOS DESDE ARGENTINA Y MI ADMINISTRACIÓN ANTE LO QUE ACABO DE VER Y ESCUCHAR. Ahí va mí like, mí suscripción y mis aplausos hasta que me duelan las manos!!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Never thought I’d hear a Crowded House cover in this style but man, am I glad I did

Your amazing man. Everything I hear out of you is just incredible. I'll try forever to be half as good. Thank you for the jams

That’s one of my favorite songs. I’ve only been playing the guitar since March, but even with all of my practice, I can’t get my bleeping hands to move like that!

3' e 5" parecia que eu estava no céu com esse som! Simplesmente espetacular! Parabéns!

Será que só eu que não cansa de ver e curtir..e viajar

Getting huge Dire Straits vibes from this, very Sultans of swing! So beautiful

This guy's freaking me out, he plays every song my soul ever sang, and as if that's not enough, he has to bring in his own darn twist. Seriously, I wonder what would happen if we ever met. It's too eerie.
