Via looks like a big girl...

Or dancing like an alien LOL. Gotta love Steve. GOAT gonna do Goat things

if you ran that hot you'd need an ice pack hahaha

Lol. Dude is like a graphics card

It gets toasty in those lights

Why do you think he lost the crossroads duel

Saw him live, still had the fan next to his amp.

Does he take these fans with him everywhere?

+JonnyInfinite bruh XD lol

+JonnyInfinite When advertising backfires.

+Daniel Fernández de Lara I don't even understand why Beats want one of their products in a rock music video? Aren't these headphones directed more towards the Rap/Hip-hop audience?

Boris Grunwald I guess advertising is advertising.

+Boris Grunwald you'd think that Dr dre endorses them

Ok Clover, Im really kind of pissed off!!! I should be able to stack up the thumbs up each time I watch this amazing tune. And yes it gets better everytime

You have had such a profound impact on my career that even the biggest thank you note would be insufficient to express my gratitude. Thanks for your help

Talent nope. Sheer skill into oblivion. For me these people have talent they developed into outstanding skills. I’m nitpicking. Lol.

It was the highlight

shows hes really gettin into the music , part of what makes him so dang good

I'm sure the ladies like his moves!

@@raymondrochajr9621 it's true hehe

She is the most talent in a life time. I wanna meet her...

yet vai is have a ton of fun playing air guitar (unplugged).

There are such things as wireless guitars ya know.

If you use a wireles guitar you have to plug in a device that sends the signal. They have nothing plugged in.

yeah and you can also see the wireless anyways.

you are aware this is just a music video. They dont need to be plugged in.

That whammy bar bit he does at 2:48 is what blew my mind. So smooth.

Remember Steve slinging the guitar around his neck on Yankee Rose? Now that was a f#cking move!

@@viroking That whammy is godly.

@@viroking It was crying for help

so simple yet so smooth

Von Orianthi schreibst nix Gefaellt Dir nicht wie sie spielt?

Mi raccomando, di Orianthi non dire nulla eh??ti dà fastidio perché è bella e brava? Solito maschilismo 🤬🤬

​@@stefangebhardt396Sarà un maschilista

Like M.Schenker once said:''Once you get success as a musician,people will talk shit about you.''.Also the fact that she's a girl in a male dominated genre,let's face it,there are many guys,who feel their wiener will shrink,when they watch a female rock guitarist/bassist/drummer etc. and than start the usual sexist bullshit.You know:''She's only famous because she's a hot chick,blah blah....'' Funny thing is,Orianthi was playing with her dad at local clubs as a teen 4 nights a week.She openend up for Vai at 15 years,an age were most of us dudes,were either playing videogames or with ourselfs.And when she was 19,she wrote,recorded,produced & mixed her debut-album ''Violet Journey'' ,in a small home-studio,that her dad build,on her own.She didn't had the money for session musicians or a producer/sound engineer.Later,when A.Cooper hired her,she had to learn a setlist of 25 songs in 5 days.I would like to see any of these bigmouths,who trashtalk on her or any other pro-musician,do something like this.

***** Exactly dude,nothing is more attractive,than a woman with some actual musical talent,who can play an instrument,no matter if it's guitar,bass,drums or something else.

Ok, One Direction and Justin Beiber? So what you're saying to me is that Orianthi's direct competition is not guys like Satriani or Vai, she's not on that level, no, it's people like Justin Beiber. That is a bigger insult than "not making anything new". Orianthi is better than One Direction and all that radio garbage, that's exactly why we expect more from her than we would from Beiber

FelpHero You've taken my comment in the wrong context mate. Why I mention artists like them is because both they and Orianthi are current artists. People like Joe Satriani started up in the 70's and 80's and absolutely shredded their guitars, but most of the modern day music tends to be repetitive and bland. Orianthi is a modern day musician, but creates interesting and engaging music, trying different styles, etc. She is a far cry, professionally or skill-wise, in front of JB or OD. Skill-wise and professionally, she is up with the greats in her ability, but is under-appreciated by the industry. Hell, I didn't even know who the hell she was until I played her song in GH: Warriors of Rock and thought, hey, this song sounds awesome, lets find it on KZfaq.

Kallitrix The problem with her isn't her lack of talent but her lack of a good management/label,who knows how to promote her and her stupid career decisions.Her first label,Geffen,wanted to market her as a teen-pop act,like Avril Lavigne.Her current label,Robo Records,did absolutely nothing to promote her excellent ''Heaven in this Hell '' cd from 2013.They put out 2 of the weakest songs as singles,with 2 ubercheap lyric videos.She couldn't do much promo work,because she was touring with A.Cooper,so nobody heard of this amazing album. If that wasn't bad enough,Orianthi herself,does everything she can,in order to destroy her credibillty & career.This year,she had some time off,from A.Cooper,instead of going on a solo-tour what does she do?She hooked up with R.Sambora and has basically become his latest ''pet''.She also left A.Cooper's band,were she was the leadguitarist,gained many new fans/exposure/credibillity and was a fan-favorite.Not to mention the Coop & her bandmates were very supportive to her(G.Sobel played drums on her album & Alice appeared as a special guest on her solo-gigs.) Since she got involved with this sleazy,drunk has-been,she's wasting her talent as backup musician in his second-rate Bon Jovi coverband.Most of the time,the guy is hammered on stage,butchering their old hits from the 80's,while she plays some chords and occasionally ''Sugardaddy'' let's her play some leads.The rest of the time,she let's him parade her around in the press & celebrity events,like some sort of trophy & she has appeared in tabloids as "the 25 years younger girlfriend of the middle-aged rockstar from the 80's''. If she doesn't get her pretty head straight,her career will be over before we even saw her full potential as a musician.Soon her ''Sugardaddy'' will replace her with a new plaything and she will be left with a career/reputation damaged beyond repair.And for the record,I'm an avid ''Ori-fanboy''. P.S.Sorry for the lenghty rant.

She's not anywhere near Vai's level and would tell you that. Jackson liked having a female guitarist hence the pick and she could play the parts. This isn't meant to be sexist at all, there are tons of really good female players technically better than her.

When Carlos Santana says Orianthi rocks, the world listens

Lol not even close to Steve vais level

shes just a kid in his playground mate

Plays as well as Steve Vai?? What planet are you from?

I’m with you as an 82 yr old rocker. She’s fantastic!!

Ditto at age 55. But it was the 80s for me. Watched the debut of MTV the very first video- Video Killed The Radio Star. I was 13. If Orianthi existed back then I don't think the world could have handled it lol. She is absolutely amazing in every aspect. I'd lay in a mud puddle for her to walk over.

Then at 71 ....maybe you ought to be more original and like me at 69 like original styles ,unique as in Frank Zappa ..a true original style....I love Orianthi but not so enamoured of the shredding stuff...like Bucket head ....

She did a couple solo albums before playing with MJ and Alice Cooper. Then her record label dropped her for lack of sales. A smaller label picked her up though.

@@iamkenman101 damn that's crazy

Still plays for Alice Cooper, say their concert yesterday, it was awesome!

The transition sort of sounds like Sonic to me.

lmfao! Dub skills.

Gitaar worst If you want a little camel snot on your arm.

I agree

That, is a really good observation.

haha, i mean they r incomparables

😀😬👍👍👍

Beautiful!

Nah i guess it was the other way around lmao

Johan G. some say he looks more like Jesus

No, there were MANY before these 2, very many

+Filippo Bianco - It looks lie the the back drop was screened in white, which means they they might have actually played and edited out the power cords for a clean effect.

+Horder Phelps towards the beginning Vai make a move like he is stomping on / off a pedal. so that seems very likely. that and at 1:49 or so you can see the cables, as they forgot to edit them out of that cut.

Professional musicians don't improvise in studio. They wrote all those parts and practiced them to play them exactly the same way. Professionals only improvise in live shows.

+Vin S he's just tapping his foot. He's not doing anything with a pedal. If he was you'd hear the effect.

i went frame by frame at 1:49 and although it looks like there's the tip of a cable coming out of the guitar, that's not the way cables are angled on steve's guitars.

Nah. This is original.

+Alan Lightner Who compose the music? Shes FANTASTIC, Steve is a GOD.

Jun Senoue is heavily influenced by Steve Vai

Metal Marauder So Jun Senoue is the one who does Sonic soundtracks?

Jacob Mortensen yes.

They were offended by the lyrics. They're too "edgy."

@@garyballard179 Bahahahaaaa

CLEARLY jealous. Either that Ori plays better than them or that she got to jam with Vai and they likely never will!

Not even cables

Actually, they have been good friends for about 14 years, she was the opening act for Steve Vai back in Australia when she was 15 years old age (Same year she recorded her "Violet Journey" Album in her own studio all tracks including the drum work .... Steve and Orianthi have had several gigs together through the years....

Steve Vai is amazing. He can make anybody sound great.

Ryan Monty he was being sarcastic

Critics buy records, cds, tapes. They are responsible for making artists rich because they give them their cash. Critics have a right to say as they like. Do not take offense at it. They are appreciators of music.

Arm Chair experts who will never play as good as any of these two ever lol.

steve vai and orianthi are gods.of that there is no doubt.

Me! I Love Steve Vai ❤️

Ethan Rummel Vai did Vai, he played what he wanted, and it’s not as technical as FTLOG or anything but it fits. Orianthi did Orianthi and I think it did well together

Ethan Rummel you r right... God is always God....his phrases r unique

***** well, ofc it's enough. but being "eye-candy" is a nice bonus.

you're totally right. :/ if someone is a bad guitar player, its not because of their gender but skills. but, shes pretty good i guess.

Just do both; "She's an awesome guitarist, but man did she ruin Voodoo Child completely."

+matt k lets be honest-women cant play guitar..

+matt k No no no!! I refuse to enjoy her playing!... Oh forget it, I'm sucked in. She's one good guitarist. What happened to her nowadays?

+matt k She's definitely not terrible but she was extremely over hyped for a long time. I think that has for the most part settled down and it's acceptable to call her a good guitarist that is sometimes sloppy live. But then again most of us are.

Frank Zappa fan I presume? (Hot Rats)

She has a name.

+jugeoben IKR ! ? ! ... and 'she' has an awesome video ... featuring Steve Vai !

Que el título dijera "Steve Vai - Highly Strung ft. Orianthi" jajajaj

Orianthi es fanática de Steve vai , no me sorprendería que algunas partes de la canción sean compuestas por ella también...

Muy buena acotaciòn.

Arturo Velasco English please

She's still putting out music to this day. In fact her latest album, Rock Candy, just came out now.

EXCELLENT COMMENT.

tango cha-char dance moves dude LOL!!

remove poop under shoe dance lol

Sweep the leg Johnny!

???

@@boggeshzahim3713 Just a thought, a fantasy, really.

@John Smith Word

That's because Satriani taught Vai. But Steve has his own style. More jazz influence comes through.

Stephen Jenkins Yea i knew he was his teacher :) and your right i hadn't really noticed how much more jazz he has

Shit just got real

that my friends is the legend flaunting his prowess, watch as the female becomes moist. Oh look a wild yngwie appeared, sends out his level 50 satriani...sorry went off on a bit of a tangent ther...

OH yeah, until 2:49 we have two fine guitarists who are at parity with each other, then Vai does his Road Runner "explosion of prowess" and goes into light speed, leaving Orianthi in the Wylie Coyote dust.

hahaha wtf
