Hey guys. Had a lot of fun doing this tune. I made some changes to the tab to suit how I would play the song unlike most videos on this page. In the intro, Wendy is playing an Fadd9. G--2-- D--5-- A--3-- E--1-- I choose to play an F chord because I can’t physically stretch my pinky that far in the first position. Fingers aren’t long and skinny enough. Props to those who can pull it off because that’s a tough one.. I chose a standard strumming pattern for the rhythm parts. Because I realize that there are those looking to memorize how to play the song so I wanted to make it playable. For the distorted prince parts, its hard to make out what he is playing. His tone is distorted and fuzzy, and low in the mix, it played with my head when trying to get it all in there. So I took some liberties. I got all the licks in there. Just with all the sliding and string muting, it’s hard to get all that in there. I tabbed out a saxophone part. I decided to tab out the outro vocal melody. All in an effort to make the song enjoyable to play. Hope you enjoy the video!

@@elefantemortal3704 yes. I didnt come here to learn some bs version. I never go to any guitar tutorial to learn anything but the real version. I think its more than just 2 things too. But even the one ender chord thats like a 5 fret stretch is vital. Other chord doesnt even sound close. Not to mention its a really cool sounding chord and comes at the end of.the riff so very important
@@charlespancamo9771 do you think that he can do the exact same version from everything? he gets a strike if he does. just look at iron man, the riff is a little different from the original but still really good
Well yes, but the eccentricity is what made him great to me.. And interesting.. Most highly creative ppl are different.. I knew a few engineers, and boy you gotta get used to their personality!! I'm a musician/ guitarist myself, and you can't live in the world of boring old normal ppl to come up with awesome ideas!! Einstein was eccentric too as well!!
HEY WAIT PLEASE i want to get your atention please give this even a small chance as a grain of sand alright just please it will only take you i dont know lets say 5 minutes and trust me it might be the most important message you will hear ALL day❤️❤️ Repent to God before its too late i know this message keeps on apearing every now and then but it doesn't get atention or at least enough atention people wake up and stop living in sin and in worldly toughts and doings its not only afecting your relationship with Jesus our Savior but its afecting you please listen to me give it a try im a very direct person and the truth is many of our friends loved ones known ones and even strangers!! WILL GO TO HELL!! It hurts me just to write this fact and that they will go there now to cut to the chase if you want to live for THE truth and THE Lord you need to repent. Repent? Right now wherever you are get on your knees if you can and shut your hands closed together and start praying this either with your mouth or in your head: Father God i know that for ME and my family and my enemies and my neighbours you have sent your one and only beloved Son Jesus Christ to live a perfect and sinles life and to die on the cross for all of our sins and to be raised by You on the 3rd day. Father God i admit with my mouth that Jesus Christ is Lord and i will let him in my heart and i admit that i have sinned and i have done wrong by you. We don't deserve You Lord but You died for us so that trough You we may get to heaven. Father Jesus we pray that you help us with our daily strugles and most importantly help us not to sin and be free of our sins and live a new life in Your name. In Jesus name amen.❤️ Now i think that should be a great enough prayer and if you need any tips any help first go to God and Jesus and ask them for directions then either come here and ask me to help you or go on youtube and search david lynn i think is his name hes a very wise and powerful sharer of the gospel even better if you have tik tok go search davidpurther he in my opinion is a very strong person in God and to be completely honest he was the one that saved me him and some more if you want more accounts like brother David ask me and if i will see your request ill try my best to answer As always may God bless you and give you a blessed new year AMEN AMEN :) ❤️✝️ Seek God. Its not about religion its no about rituals its not about hipocrisy or about a cheap philosophy of life. Its about communion with God Himself, Creator of all existing things, from the smallest atom to the biggest star. Everything has the Hand of God. I know that few will read this message and even fewer will be impacted by it but if you've read this far i heartly advise you to seek the Lord, who died for you took the guilt of your sins, and is willing to forgive you and accept you regardless of who you are, or what you have done. It's your decision. You have the free will to do whatever you want! God bless you bro ❤️if u havent consider repenting bro its soooo worth it luv u all❤️❤️
This is one of the best rock/pop songs of all time with arguably the most underrated guitar solos of all time. Still gives me chills every time I hear it.

Holy crow. What a version I'm also impressed by the combination of the 1700's- looking outfit with the futuristic-looking guitar. A feast for the eyes and ears.

DAMN I have to say!! I am BLOWN AWAY. There is not a single other cover of this solo that actually plays it like prince did in the recording. This is as close as it gets! FANTASTIC! I can't get over it!! I mean it's not 100%, but 100% is impossible cuz you can't really hear what he is playing in some parts on the record. And he has to my knowledge never played the studio version solo live? But still, this is as close and great as it gets!!!!!!
I went to the dump last week and there was an Aria Classical guitar from 1978 siting there in a case with the bridge (still attached to the strings) sitting in the sound hole. The glue let go in a very clean break. I did some sanding and put the bridge back in place. I got some Labella flamenco strings and tied them on. This is what it's telling me to play. I've gotten most of it down so far and it sounds spectacular. Soon I'll record and fire up one of my electric guitars and put the pieces together. One man's trash is another person's treasure. This video is incredible, thank you for sharing.
Always when i hear the solo i start crying because it is so beautiful and so so fucking emotional ❤❤❤ i love the solo so so much it warmes my heart up ❤❤❤❤
Wendy Melvoin made this song she wrote and plays the main guitar part through out( prince playing all lead licks and solos) when prince heard her playing those chords he totally changed the song to this masterpiece ❤
Fun Fact: The vocal track and guitar solo of this song is actually recorded from a live performance (from the first time he performed the song on stage, First Avenue 1983). The guitar solo was improvised live on stage.
So I have been using your video tutorials and I have learned tons. Thank you. I also have come to truly understand the genius both in terms of technical skill and as in terms of art these guitarists have, and your own freaking epic talent. One thing I am finding is that many of these seemingly "easy" guitar pieces are actually crazy hard to nail down. Thank you.
Fantastic lesson. You've made it so much easier to learn the notes, strumming, timing and muting. And, Wendy Melvoin's freaky finger chord aside, everything sounded pretty damn close to perfect - at least to my ears and I must have listened to this song/air guitared to the solo hundreds of times. Thanks mate!
Mega schön gecovert - wohl mit eins der technisch besten Gitarrencover die es gibt! Durch die Kostümierung und die Sign-Guitar wird es nochmals unterstrichen! Danke für's Video teilen!
Im glad I found you !!!! then for you to play it with the Symbol!!!! even though u change it a little I still hear you!!!! well I'm going back to practicing!!!!
I never meant to cause you any sorrow I never meant to cause you any pain I only wanted to one time to see you laughing I only wanted to see you Laughing in the purple rain Purple rain, purple rain Purple rain, purple rain Purple rain, purple rain I only wanted to see you Bathing in the purple rain I never wanted to be your weekend lover I only wanted to be some kind of friend (hey) Baby, I could never steal you from another It's such a shame our friendship had to end Purple rain, purple rain Purple rain, purple rain Purple rain, purple rain I only wanted to see you Underneath the purple rain Honey, I know, I know I know times are changing It's time we all reach out For something new, that means you too You say you want a leader But you can't seem to make up your mind I think you better close it And let me guide you to the purple rain Purple rain, purple rain Purple rain, purple rain If you know what I'm singing about up here C'mon, raise your hand Purple rain, purple rain I only want to see you Only want to see you In the purple rain
