Polyphia | Champagne feat. Nick Johnston (Official Music Video) 

Bruh Tim looks like he's not even old enough to hug any of them, Scott included

3:38 when you try and grab the whammy and its not there

The girls are just waiting for them to play Wonderwall

Hearing this song live and the crowd singing the chorus was beautiful.

I'm almost 47 and I'm glad to see younger generations redefining guitar playing. The first time I heard "G.O.A.T." my mind exploded...and the first time I watched Tim play the riff I freaked out.

Accurate representation of being a guitarist today. The girls are basically ignoring them lol

4 years ago my uncle told me his guitarist son said I’d like this band, I forgot what he said for a while, a bit later I decided to just check out what they’re all about. Now I’ve gone to a show, met them all personally, and play dozens of their songs every day. My favorite band and biggest inspiration by far.

I've seen this video 100 times and I just noticed that the focus changes between Tim and Scott every measure starting at 2:14

This filming situation must've been so awkward.

Nick Johnston's solo here is probably my favorite solo of all time. Seriously.

when your rhythm guitarist is also a GOD

the best part is at 0:30 when Scott's resting his guitar on that girl's leg lmao

There are surely plenty of pretty women in this video, but by far the sexiest thing in this is Johnston's licks. Absolutely sublime technique and feel.

I find it offensive that the bassist doesn't get to sit next to any girl. he isn't even in this video at all

When you watch two absolutely outstanding guitarists and then some other guys comes and drops a mind-blowing solo like that

The main riff is probably the happiest riff I've heard. It always makes me smile. So uplifting and energetic.

is Polyphia still a band or is it just Phineas and Ferb on their own now?

3:30 suddenly, a wild strat appears.

0:00 intro chorus 0:16 verse 1 0:31 verse 2 0:46 bridge 1:00 chorus A 1:15 solo 1 1:45 bridge 1:59 chorus B 2:13 soli A (breakdown) 2:29 solo 2 2:59 piano interlude 3:02 chorus B 3:16 soli A' (breakdown) 3:31 outro solo

These dudes are badass!!! I heard them for the first time last night in my self-defense class. I was hooked from the very first song. During a break, I asked my Instructor, "WHO is THIS?" He told me and sent me a link to G.O.A.T., which I listened to when I got home. Right now, I'm working from home. So instead of playing my usual variety of playlists, I'm checking out Polyphia here on youtube and I'm just blown away. When listening to them, I can't help but think back to the days when I would immerse myself in some Steve Vai. He was making sounds on a guitar that I had never heard before. The kinds of sounds that make you smile and squeeze your eyes shut, crinkle your nose, and with a sharp head nod, make you say, "DAMN!" These guys make me do the exact same thing. I only wish that I had found them sooner. Four albums in? Where in the hell have I been? Truly, love at first listen.

0:43 Girl on the right: "I'm pretty sure she's pooping... yea"

I LOVE the way Scottie's solo starts. The first two notes, his guitar is speaking for him saying 'ayyyyy it's scottie" 2:28

Tim looks older in this video than he does now.

Nick makes playing that solo look absolutely effortless, just the way he moves around the fretboard 👌

The video is every boy's dream of being a master shredder and getting woman because you play guitar really well... too bad it's a fantasy.

Why are these girls chatting while this masterpiece is being performed right in front of them holy guacamole :o

My new favorite Polyphia song.

Nick Johnston is one of the most under appreciated guitarists, I swear...

Absolutely love this! Very cool catchy melodies as well as super fast tasty licks! Nick has such a unique sound and technique! \m/

This is by far the best song you guys have wrote! The video was kinda lame though, I mean.... no drums.... like, cmon man..

The first (and only) Polyphia song I’ve learned on guitar. Took me 2 weeks and I’m still not 100% on the solos, but learning this has literally made me a better guitarist. Tim and Scottie know how to motivate me to learning a song and just motivate me to pick up my guitar. These guys will surely go down in guitarist history.

It's crazy to know that in that time, Ichika wasn't even playing yet. It's insane how he caught up to these amazing dudes here.

I don't comment a lot, but you guys make my day. Your music is freaking incredible.

I saw them open for Coheed and Cambria. Had chills for the duration of this song. When they finished, I overheard a guy tell his friend that he forgot he came for Coheed.

I love how good it is and they don't even look like they play hard and fast. They look really casual.

この曲めちゃくちゃテンション上がるから大好き　もし日本でライブしてくれたらこれをみんなで合唱するのが夢

I like how this video just manages to totally leave out the bassist and drummer. Cool.

The song is called "Champagne". Why are they all drinking apple juice in wine glasses?

How the hell have I been sleeping on this band for all these years?

Nick Johnston's solo is stupidly good

You know what I want to see? A Polyphia song like this, but instead of a guest solo, Keith Merrow comes in with one of his face-crushing riffs

Polyphia, a band who features guitarists instead of vocalists

I could sit and listen to this song all day. such a catchy riff!

Nick is the definition of class on the guitar.

i like the fender guy. so much mature when it comes to the solo

Anyone know where I can find the lyrics?

Scott playing that lick with a girl sitting on his lap and his arm around her has got to be the most rock star thing I've ever seen

Can't believe it took me till a few months ago to discover Tim Henson and Polypgia. I'm mind blown with each video I see of them. Crazy talented band with some sick ass tunes to sink your teeth into.

I must be gay because I didn't even notice the girls next to them

Nick Johnston's solo is SICK!

How is this almost 9mil views and still yet underrated

i could literally loop this endlessly and i still wouldnt get tired of it 🔥🔥

theres nothing quite like the single coil sound of a stock fender strat.

It's their debut non self recorded album. They probably both just turned 21. They keep becoming more popular. Honestly I think champagne fits this album perfectly.

Love the way they look at eachother like “oh yeah we pulling all the girls”

Scott playing with his arm around that chick is the most boss pimp shit ever.

I'm over here just learning pentatonic scales like fuuuuck XD

I will marry the person who tabs this song

That bass right when guitars come in at the beginning, is SICK.

You know that the riff is hard when the veins on your picking hand pop up.

Take the imagery however you want, but you can't deny that their music is terrific.

this is the reason to boys learn guitar, guitar players get more girls

my best favorite song's Polyphia. i am always charged very so much energy, when i am listening this song.

One of their best songs for sure Tim went from good boy to emo-fashionist-shredder

0:43 Girl on right "Yeah shes poopin"

Oh my word. Very impressive! I love the combinations of Poppy melodies with Progressive rhythms! Keep up the amazing work!

Girls:”play wonderwall” Polyphia:” ok but before take your champagne”🥂

I've been wondering, my whole life, what it would sound like, if a bunch of metalheads just took their insanely fast and just plain insane skills and made fucking melodic songs that combine a whole bunch of shit, jazz, dubstep, drum n bass and who knows what other shit, that it would just become "mainstream", while maintaining that insane undeniable power that metal music always had, at least in my mind! I am happy to report that I ain't wondering no more! I've been listening for weeks now, going through all the songs and shit, and I can just say, THIS IS INASNE lol The transformation and changes are undeniable over the time, but all the songs just have that SHIT that makes your spine stingy, no matter the style, genre or anything! So happy I discovered this band!

I guess these guys and Chon are probably two of the most "different" sounding "metal" bands i've heard till date. You know it's a win when you cannot categorize a band according to genre. Love the music!

Just saw these guys live in Birmingham. Their songs hit different live. It is insanity. If you get a chance, go see them. God they’re amazing.

Best part of the video is 30 seconds in when they look at each other like "yea, we're badass!"

old Polyphia, baby Tim 💓

"Official Music Video" Only 2 members of the band in it.

Nick's solo is literally the best solo i've heard in years

Wearing headphones listening to this song, so therapeutic

pretty crazy that this album came out almost 10 years ago. i remember watching this video on repeat my freshman year of highschool

I love the melody here. Very original has a great flow to it.

This is the easiest 500$ dollars those escorts have ever made

I see everybody talkin about how amazing the guitar players are, and you guys are not wrong. Those two guys are renovating and rerouting the future a progressive metal's path... My shout-out goes to the drummer in the bass player for knowing how to play around all of that complex intricacy and not step on anybody's toes... It's not what you playing is how you play it!!!!! \m/

love this viddeo, love the fact that while being surrounded by hot girls, you got two bros scott and tim just jammin out and knowing how good their jammin is

Just discovered polyphia gotta say they're like already one of my favorite bands.

Nick Johnston is such a badass he can do whammy bar tricks without a wahammy bar

I love Polyphia, I love Ego Death for obvious reasons. I'm open minded about all guitar music, but, I have just watched Gary Moore, The Loner@ Stockholm 1987. That just blew me away for speed, technique, but most of all feel and emotion. Something some music is missing nowadays.

The boys on any guitars other than ibanez... NJ on a Fender. This truly was a different time.

My fiance and I came across y'all's band a couple months ago and we were so lucky to find your CD at our local Hastings store (from my understanding, your CD is rare but forgive me if I'm wrong). I can't put into words how much we love your music, especially this song. Like seriously, you guys are amazing. Keep up the good work!

this video/song has everything I love haha

3:29 the phrasing leading the solo is fantastic

Everything about this song is flawless. I miss old Polyphia so much.

:P

this video is the vivid representation of every guitarist when they find a guitar at a party

Dang guys. I work at Guitar Center. And everybody has been playing your songs. Finally I asked “what are you playing?” Looking at me like I was so stupid they answered “Polyphia”. And here I am. Well done guys. Any chance for a vocalist in the future?

This must be before Tim got sucked into an Isekai and spat back out.

I have watched this many times and the chicks in the background still make me chuckle. 3 guys shredding the SHIT out of their guitars and they are like "Oh my god, did you go to that party last night? That guy from accounting was there! Did you see him? I heard Sally baged him in the elevator! I swear to god!!"

My computer can't handle that top quality...I can see their blood cells from here.

Found them 8 years after this video was released and coming back to this... just a bit shocked at the lack of tats, hair, and the rich-partyer look! Amazing playing as always. Love the shot where you can see both sets of hands.

Tim was traumatized wearing this blazer so much that he decided never dress formal in music videos again)

Song should be call Apple Juice. I mean look at those glasses. Hyped to see Polyphia play with CHON and Strawberry Girls in Philly!!

I'm so late. Absolute banger!

I don't see Champagne. Only apple juice in beer glasses.

2:13 gets me every time
