AUHEHUUHEAHUE

It is a big smile emoji

This song and Pavilion have that same effect.

=D

@MrShayne Agree. I generally dont value the work of copy cats anyway. Spend your time finding your own unique tone and voicing. As well as being creative. Its difficult but in the end you will gain a lot and contribute something unique and creative. One can always listen to Eric Johnson if one likes this particular song. Not a criticism - just a philosophical observation on music in general

Only thing is a health person in quarantine is a problem in itself, but I guess she had her seven Ibanez guitars to keep her company, nice playing.

Her "balls out" attitude the entire video is SO fucking boss. She crushes it, and knows it.

She humbly knows she absolutely killed it!!

Well, neither does Eric Johnson. 🙃

@@dr.bunterhidenbrobruh5502 You’re right, but typically everybody tries to play the licks exactly like Eric did. For example, the galloping lick she plays in the Em pentatonic position instead of part of the G major scale. That’s more what I was pointing out, she plays them differently than everyone trying to copy Eric.

@@trentmckenzie343 My point is, regardless of whether you play the licks in the exact fret positions as EJ or not, he often used "unusual" fingerings and didn't always play within the typical "boxes/shapes" because he had such an incredible stretch/span, which gave him more options and flexibility to stretch across the fretboard and play patterns that would be very uncomfortable to someone like myself who can't palm a basketball, lol. Not sure which part you're referring to with the "galloping lick" because I think of a gallop as a repeated eighth/sixteenth note pattern with a straight feel (think Iron Maiden bass lines) whereas this is mostly in a swing eighth/triplet feel. Also (regardless of fingering) this should not be thought of as being played in Em, but rather G major - with the exception of course of the intro, before the song really starts, which I do think of as Em pentatonic(ish). Assuming what you meant by this is the pentatonic mode ("box/pattern") located from open to the 3rd fret (or 12th to 15th), but again I'm not sure the exact part you're referring to.

@@dr.bunterhidenbrobruh5502 Towards the end of the intro there’s an ascending/descending lick that’s got a gallop-type phrasing and utilizes string skipping. Eric plays it starting on the root note on fret 15 of the high E, and plays the 17th and 19th of the B, G, and D. It’s just before the last quick G major pentatonic run in the intro. She plays that lick in the E minor position of 12-15, which typically nobody does. But you are absolutely correct, he has insane span, as is evident in his live performance at Austin(?). The chords he plays are insanely difficult.

@@trentmckenzie343 Yeah the intro is obviously played in a different feel from the rest of the song and rooted more in Em until the last section right before the pedal riff where the song really "starts", which is based in G (relative keys but still important to note the difference). I think I know the exact part you're talking about now. It's the ending of the final ascending major run and he climbs up to that "pedal" riff where he pedals the high G (15 on high E string) with the other notes you mentioned in between and repeats it a few times before the final descending run. Yes I noticed that was definitely a different way than I've played it before or seen anyone else play it, lol. Pretty interesting though. Hey, whatever works, as long as you get the right notes, right? That's the beauty of the guitar, we have the luxury of being able to play the same notes in different places so we have some choice in our fingerings which can provide some comfort. There are many riffs I play differently than the original artist, sometimes to the point where I criticize their fingerings - like WHY TF would you play it THAT way? Lol. I once read it's best to always use the fingering that's most comfortable and that you can make sound the best. The slight difference in tone will be the least of your worries. It's better than making a mistake trying to pull it off the "real" way. In the end all that will matter is how you can make it sound.

Same age, same opinion. 100% agree!

Fantastic, how many talented players are on this planet, without bad attitudes! Being 58, I know that I always lacked talent and passion.

@@harrydehnhardt5092 11 years younger, but I'll third that opinion!

I can relate to you. During my time ... the only available material is the cassette tapes and my ears ... if there is only youtube back then ... I will learn all of this with ease ...

Next to you with my 59 yo. I was considered as a so good guitar player in my town...until I noticed few years ago some so better guitar players than me, and it was a good new and I still make progress today! And so this charming young woman gives me a lesson today! :-)

Thats exactly what my guitar teacher told me,back in the day he had to rewind/fastforward the deck tape countless times and pick the songs by ear. We are lucky to have the resources within a click.

you deserve more likes

Hahaha my dad recalls recording live performances and trying to watch their fingers on the fretboard... thank God for tabs

It's an invaluable skill to be able to learn things by ear...

Ditto!! 61 y/o here (and still at it), learned it by ear off cassette in completely different fingerings, and never got it as authentic as she has it.

And now you can put your pants on.

@@johnbevelagua 😂

That’s what she said

Agreed!!!

@@baglebites Good night, Michael Scott.

Transgenders playing guitar?

Bubba Smollett you be funny Jussie! You in MAGA country

@@BidenIsKing Yep 👍🇺🇸

Right

It just popped up on my feed, you sir are a man of great culture.

Here is the most accurate of all the covers of the intro I have found on the net. After playing it side by side on my computer I can tell you the phrasing, tone and execution of every note is 99.99% accurate. kzfaq.info?search_query=chelsea+constable+white+clifs+of+dover

Me neither dude! Other than Eric if course

@@swampdog1592 I've played the bass part to this song so many times I'vw lost count in 30 years but listening to Nili do justice to the guitar part makes me jump up...it's very good!!!

WATCH Chelsea Constable play it

Check out Rick Graham's interpretation.

I can and I’m only 16 🤪

@@RJMStraya I haven’t thought about posting on KZfaq yet, maybe if you have Snapchat give me and add and I’ll try show you. Cj.hopkins151 ✌️

She captured the one on fricken RG550

get your ears checked

This sounds nothing like erics tone, youve got shit in your ears mate

I love when my favorite creators like a video im watching ha

This isn’t a Dope cover it’s an Eric Johnson cover. Two totally different bands.

Hear-hear.

Lol. From one side of KZfaq to another.

Nilli tet seš ty co nejsou žádné B ale a z 😈🎶🎶🎶🎶ok

As Eric put it himself, guitar playing is about mastering all the little details, like sustaining and cutting off notes, and I must say I am impressed, I almost thought it was a fake, but I could not find any little element for this

Gotta agree. I have attempted this song several times and always trip up. She is simply amazing.

i prefer the way the little asian girl does it, whatever her name is i can't remember

That's the part I felt was missing a bit... she plays it much straighter than Eric, he swings it more. Definitely has the notes down though and that's no small achievement.

Bill Johnson yeah. I notice right away. All her pickups are very straight. Shes amazing but not playing the “shuffle” feel this song has.

Girl on guitar. Some "men" can't handle that.

@@Obamafan6861 I would say then, they are not men. They are Misogynists.

same thoughts on that

@@Obamafan6861 You're kidding yourself if you don't think some girls hit that dislike button too.

@@paulpaid Ehh lit the simps be they obviousy have no clue for the reasons some poeple hit the dislike button.

down arrows are most likely players who do not use software to speed up their playing. Just a thought

George Myers you REALLY think that’s what she did? Why?

Oh my. I'm laughing at that one all the way from Glasgow 🍀. And, also considering laying mine own guitar down.

Watch and listen carefully, Nili was playing and no software speed up, some people are talented.

Pretty much 🤣. I love seeing a woman who can legitimately slay it on the guitar like this.

Wow my idol

Coleeeee

Do you reply plzzzz, your lile my faverout youtuber, and also my idol man your amazing ceep it up ❤👍

By far the best, most accurate cover of this on KZfaq. 👍

Fuck learn to spell and don’t be a fucking cringe. 🤮 gross

How long does it take for you to learn a song like this in its entirety?

@@ayo__ayo depends on your skill level

99.99% as close to Eric's recordings as humanly possible. Even the tone, just wow.

Spot on analysis. She’s not just playing through the licks, she’s getting the phrasing spot on which is next to impossible on something this acrobatic and all over the place and where the original player (Eric) has such a unique voice. It’d take me years to get to a level of performance on this track even remotely that close to the original.

@@ayo__ayo depends on your skills, methods and dedication. You might take a week practicing 8hours. Might take you a year

Then your name should be "burned out since last Sunday" lol

I found it funny they didn't include this in the G3 Live album.. oh well lucky you for getting to see it live!

And she plays a song by Eric Johnson, on an RG which was based on Steve Vai's JEM, on Satriani's signature amp. We went full circle there.

The fact you got to see G3 is so amazing! All those amazing guitarist together in one, you are so lucky!

@@Totone56 Well, kind of.. Except for that the Jem was loosely based on it's predecessor, the RG, a phenomenal 2 octave beast! She's very gifted! Congrats on nailing it on camera Miss!

I noticed that too. Not much loss of tone or feel for it. Most people clam the hell out of this song

100%...The result was a pleasant surprise. Nice job Nili!

Agree great job. I learned it long ago trying to match the way Eric's finger patters are and it's brutal how he does it, but Nili makes it work!!!

That's because she's not playing it.

@Thomas Grey Eric is basically the Sergei Rachmaninoff of guitar, his hand size and finger length is simply unfair...

@Joe _ Rochester, NY.

I listened with headphones and this is about as close as you can get. Shockingly Good!

eric doesnt play it like eric no more... she is closer to the 1980 eric that he is now. its life. and its awsome

Literally!!

you talking about the music or her? :)

@@WillsEasyGuitar YES... the answer to that question is YES.

Yeah exactly my point that's what else I was going to say is that she makes it look so easy and effortless

Gretchen Menn, you my lady are a beast of a player yourself. I would love to see you and Nili Brosh jam together. Stay safe.

If you add my Instagram Raddadguitarsaz I'm showing people how to play it very slowly. I have 3/5 parts of the intro on my page for anyone who wants to learn it

This one and Canon Rock.

Guitar hero is a game. Kinda like I’m good at madden but not actual football. This girl is amazing so don’t compare this to guitar hero. I’m hoping that was just a joke though.

Yup and it went completely over your head. Have a nice day.

Sorry I missed the joke. I’ve heard people compare guitar hero to real guitar before and actually mean it. Have a good one.

No need to be sorry. My comedy is kinda like Dane Cooks'. Rarely funny.

Fromth3d3pths 😂😂

Muscle memory

I have a good portion of this song down

She learned this by ear also ! She does it completely different then Eric Johnson. Really impressive

Simp

This beautiful machine will love you long time.
